“Rachel provided amazing care for our cat this summer, super reliable, wonderful updates and photos, and really skilled at making her feel at ease. We cannot recommend her highly enough!!”

“Frazier has watched our cat on two occasions this summer and everything has gone very smoothly! Our naturally shy cat has really warmed to her. We really appreciate seeing photos of him while we are away.”


“Julianne was fantastic! She was extremely communicative and took excellent care of our cat Sebastian while we were away. She went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of, and we will definitely book her again. Thank you, Julianne!!”
“Boning was wonderful and helpful. She house sat and took care of my prince and Suki with such great care. She did everything on my list with ease and I felt comfortable and safe with her care. My kittens are so comfortable around her and love her company. She got to know them and their personalities and every task was completed and did not need to repeat any instructions ever. I really appreciated working with Boning.”

About: Hi! I've had gerbils, fish and dogs growing up, fostered ducks, snakes and guinea pigs and house sat for the occasional cat (and house plants). My current living situation doesn't allow for me to have pets, but I'd love to spend time helping take care of yours I'm taking a break from engineering to get my EMT certification. I'm available all the time until class starts in May, when I'll be spending the weekday mornings in class I can't host in my home, (roommates with pet allergies) but I'm happy to drive (or train or bus or walk) to see yours in their space.
“Elizabeth took excellent care of my cats, Jasper and Daisy, for the weekend. This was my first time booking a cat sitter through Rover and it was a great experience. Elizabeth was very reliable and sent updates on the cats along with photos which was reassuring. The cats seemed well cared for and happy upon our return. We have Elizabeth booked for a future time!”


“Samantha was great! We recently adopted a very active and playful kitten. She did a fantastic job keeping him occupied and safe while we were away. Samantha was very punctual and had great communication. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

“Tessa is fantastic. She stepped in on very short notice and took such great care of Lexi. Lexi can be a bit dramatic 😼 but Tessa handled her with so much patience and kindness. Her communication was excellent, and we felt totally at ease while we were away. We’ve already booked her again and feel so lucky to have found her.”

“Anna took great care of our cat Alfie over the holidays. He's a very sociable cat who asks for a lot of play and affection, and Anna made sure to give him some exercise and cuddles every day.”

“Margaret took such great care of our cats, she is wonderful. She is so sweet, very caring and I hope she will take care of Olive and Otis again next time we go away! I highly recommend her!”

“Jeff did a great job with our cat Gretzky. Gretzky is a 20 year old who has some special care needs and Jeff was able to give the cat medicine, feed him his special diet etc. We will definitely hire Jeff again as he is reliable and a good communicator who really likes cats. Highly recommended.”

“Jing is awesome with our three dogs! I was really reluctant to let a stranger come into our house but she is always so respectful and trustworthy with our four legged friends! They get excited when she comes through the door 😂 definitely hire her!”

“Ani was absolutely wonderful with our two senior kitties! She ensured they got their pills, cleaned the litter, spent time with them, and took lovely photos and wrote descriptions about her visits. Will absolutely book her again!”
“Cynthia was amazing! She sent so many pictures and videos when checking in on our kitties which made us so happy. She is super sweet, trustworthy, and has great communication! She took such good care of our babies. Would definitely recommend her & would use her services again in the future!”

“Tara is amazing. She’s dropped in twice now with my dog. We had all sorts of issues with the garage door opener and she figured it out so that I didn’t have to rush home to let her in. (Totally my issue). She is also great with the dog. Nice long walks and lots of pictures”

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog owner and truly believe that our pets are part of the family, not just animals we care for. They are companions we love and build our lives around. I’m a structured, reliable caregiver who also brings a warm, playful energy to every dog I look after. Whether your dog is a high energy puppy, a steady adult, or a senior who needs a gentler pace, I’m comfortable and experienced with all ages and personalities. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, attention, and care throughout the day, not just quick check ins. My goal is always to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where your dog feels comfortable and at ease. Your dog will be staying in a true family home. We have a fenced in dog run for safe outdoor time. Four friendly resident dogs (2 small JRTs, 2 Labradors) who are well socialized and three dog loving kids (16, 8, 6) who understand how to respectfully interact with animals. Because of this, your dog will have a great mix of structure, play, and companionship, but I’m also very mindful of individual needs. If your dog prefers space, a slower introduction, or a quieter environment, I can absolutely accommodate that.
About: Hi, my name is Amanda and I live in Norwood, MA! I’ve cared for many different pets over the years and I’m happiest when caring for animals! I’m going back to school and looking for productive and fun ways to spend my free time, and I would love to do that by getting to know your pets! I love being outside and going for walks and hikes! I get a lot of joy out of meeting new pets and I would be thrilled to come play with yours! I have been dog sitting and house sitting for several years now and can provide excellent references. I also have a very social cat who I adore and I’m comfortable working with both dogs and cats! I’m happy to answer any questions you have and I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies!
About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—learning their routines, reading their body language, and giving them personalized attention and care. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep pet parents updated with photos and notes, so they feel confident and connected while they’re away. Whether it's high-energy walks, special needs, or just lots of cuddle time, I adapt to each pet's unique personality and needs. I’m currently working part time for the summer because I work in an Elementary school! Since I have a flexible schedule, I’m able to spend quality time with each pet, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for throughout the day! I can build my schedule around the needs of your pets, wether it’s morning feedings, midday walks, playtime, or evening check-in’s! I will always make sure your dog is safe, and not in any risk of getting out. I will strictly follow clients rules for the dogs to ensure their safety.

Nicole did a great job taking care of my cats over the holidays! She fed them, gave Bindi a pill twice a day, and spent time hanging out/playing with them during each visit. She also sent updates and a ton of pictures every time she stopped by. I appreciate that Nicole was super responsive and asked questions whenever things were unclear. Thank you Nicole ☺️

Ani was amazing with our elderly cat Karina. I didn't need to worry at all during our trip because Karina warmed up to her immediately which she rarely does with unfamiliar people. Ani was extremely conscientious and thorough in her care and made sure that our elderly girl was relaxed and content with massages and plenty of love and attention. Thank you so much, Ani.

Cynthia is absolutely amazing with our two cats! She’s so caring & great with communication. This is the second time she’s watched our cats & we will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future! We love all the pictures & videos she sends us when she’s checking in. We definitely recommend her!
