“Jana continues to be a wonderfully reliable and kind caregiver for my little old lady black lab!! I know my girl, Mochi, always looks forward to seeing her favorite Auntie! 🥰”
“Kristen was absolutely terrific. Our old dog has to spend long days alone when we are at work and Kristen came to visit her for walks and friendship while we were gone. She always sent wonderful updates about their adventures and was clearly very sweet to our old girl in addition to getting her some exercise. She even brought her a toy and left us a sweet card. I can't say enough about Kristen and how much we appreciated her. I can enthusiastically recommend her to anyone who wants peace of mind knowing that their pet will be well loved and cared for.”
“Su was absolutely wonderful with Giro. Giro, that is usually poo shy with new people very quickly felt very comfortable 😃 which is a wonderful sign. Thank you Su! We would definitely love to have you walk Giro again”
“We are so grateful to have found Nicholas! He is patient and understanding with our somewhat anxious but entirely lovable dog. Always on time, friendly, and helpful. We couldn't ask for a better dog walker. Thank you, Nicholas!”
“Needed a last minute late afternoon, early evening walker and Suki was able to jump in. Thankful she did. She had never met my dog or me before, but used the instructions left on the River site, and was able to smoothly walk my dog without any issues or questions. She sent pics, and took Charlie for an extended walk. Came home and she was happy and healthy. I would definitely use Suki to walk my dog again, and I am thankful she was available when I needed her. Awesome job!”
“Alexis did an amazing job with our dog, Duke. She took great care of him, giving him plenty of exercise and feeding him while we were away. We will definitely use Alexis in the future!”
“Gabriel did a great job helping me out with a last minute request on a tight schedule. I really appreciated his flexibility and responsiveness. I think Percy was happy too!”
“Amazing experience!! Took Sadie for a much longer walk (thank you soooo much). Did a group walk w/ two other dogs which is great for her to socialize since she thinks she’s queen bee. She’s certainly going to sleep well tonight! Thanks again :)”
About: I've loved caring for animals ever since I got my first Husky when I was just two years old. Over the years, I've looked after many cats and dogs of all sizes, and I have experience with pets of all ages, including those who need special health care. I really enjoy taking long walks, playing fun games, and giving gentle grooming. I'm also comfortable helping with medication when needed. Currently I work part time as a bakery manager and have a flexible schedule. I am available most mornings and afternoons and all day Sunday-Tuesday. I am dedicated to adhering to the routine you have established for your pet. I am comfortable traveling to different locations and will keep in close contact with you. I will do everything possible to ensure your pet receives the best care.
“All the 5 star reviews are accurate. Charlene is fantastic. She is super loving with our Labradoodle, who took to Charlene immediately. We’re so lucky to have found Charlene!”
“Sydney has been amazing for our dogs Myla and Malibu. She is quick to respond, reliable and trustworthy. Our girls love their walks and drop ins from Sydney! Can not recommend someone more!”
About: Along with growing up with two dogs and helping to raise a puppy as a teenager, family friends and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their dogs and cats since I was ten. I've worked with all types of dogs, from Shih Tzus to Pit Bull mixes. I'm the one in my family who takes the dogs out on long hikes (or for short walks around the block once they get older), brushes their teeth and fur, gives them baths, and trims their nails. I'm a regular volunteer at cat shelters in cat care, and as a student on the pre-veterinary track, I have shadowed and volunteered at vet clinics to better understand the care that goes into your pets' health. Besides dogs and cats, I also have experience with a myriad of animals, such as hamsters, rabbits, chinchillas, guinea pigs, mice, fish, hermit crabs, geckos, snakes, tortoises, and turtles. I have experience in preparing special diets for pets and other animals with specific health needs, and in senior dog care. I'm a college student, so I fit bookings around my classes and workload. My classes start at 8 am on weekdays, so my general availability is as follows: Monday/Wednesday/Friday: Available after 11:30 am Tuesday: Available after 6 pm Thursday: Heavier on classes, but I may be able to do a quick drop-in in the morning/evening if needed Weekends: Unavailable 8-10 am Saturdays, otherwise available As a lover of all creatures, I take the safety of both pets and wildlife seriously. As such, I will always supervise pets that are outside in yards and keep them on leashes outside fenced-off areas so they are not a danger to others or themselves. If transporting pets in my car, I will keep them safe and secure in a carrier/crate. As a college student who has shared living spaces with new people before, I understand the importance of respecting others' belongings and boundaries. During drop-in visits, I will be sure to respect your home and any rules you may have for your comfort (i.e. no shoes in the house, specific dishes/silverware for pets only, general cleanliness, etc.).
The median cost per walk for dog walking in West Roxbury is $25
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Roxbury
Kristen was really great with our dog. The information she provided, via walk description and photos, was reassuring, and she went above and beyond bringing some homemade food when our dog was a bit too nervous from our absence to eat. It's good to know we have someone we can trust, the next time we need help!
Sarah exceeded our expectations. This was our first time leaving our girls with a stranger. In fact, we’ve never been completely comfortable leaving our girls with anyone. Sarah immediately put us at ease. She was absolutely amazing with them, and most importantly, they loved her! It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her care for them again.
Giuliana was amazing! I booked her last minute to walk my 4 year old Mini Bernedoodle. She made time to come over for a visit the day before to ensure a smooth transition. I could tell my dog Cruz loved her right away. Giuliana is reliable and communicative, describing the walk and care. She sent adorable pictures, one of our cat as well which we really appreciated. We absolutely will book with her again and highly recommend to others! Thanks Giuliana!
Luis is kind, thoughtful and very patient. It’s no surprise to say that he’s good with dogs, but of our two that he worked with, one is reactive and anxious. Luis did not let that bother him. He was confident and let her approach him at her pace. Never once did he rush their meeting. He clearly understands dogs, and treated our two like individuals, which was really important because they are so different. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Callie and Thor love walking with Mengyao!! Grandma says they get so excited when she walks in the door and they come back from their walks nice and tired!! I got great updates and pictures from the walks that we knew they were well taken care of!! I highly recommend Mengyao for your dog walking needs- she is amazing!!
First time introducing our dog Tsuki to Thomas and Emma and it went extremely well! Our dog takes a while to warm up to new people, but it didn’t take long for her to play with them and ask for pets. Tsuki enjoyed a great fetch session with Emma today. I’m sure she will enjoy the next ones as much!
Although it was her first time meeting Terry, she handled him with ease and took him on a great walk. She made sure he was comfortable by taking short breaks and offering him water when needed. She communicated with me throughout the visit, asked if there was anything else Terry might need, and followed all of my requests. I really appreciated her care and attention to detail.
