“Chrissie has been walking Summer for nearly 3 weeks now and has been a tremendous help in making sure Summer gets some exercise & TLC while I am at work. If you need someone to care for your pup while you're otherwise occupied, Chrissie is the best choice and will treat your dog like she's her own. I can't recommend her highly enough!”

“Ashley is a delight. She was very communicative and caring about our elderly dog with special needs. We only needed her to come and take him for a walk, but he is blind and deaf and also wears a diaper. She let us know when she got to our house and sent pictures afterwards. We felt very comfortable with her and will definitely be using her again.”

About: I spent 3 months last fall volunteering at a dog shelter (5 days a week, 4 hours a day), I’ve worked many dog and cat sitting jobs, and I’ve had my rescue dog Artie for 14 years. I have experience with puppies, senior and rescue dogs. I’m currently home until September and looking for some extra work! I have a full time summer job but am available for house-sitting the last week of August, as well as able to do local dog walks or drop-in visits most mornings.

I’m more than happy to take them for walks, play with them, feed them (including any medications) and give them lots of love!

“Jesse was great with Oscar! They hit it off from the meet and greet and Jesse even recommended a new harness to help keep Oscar from pulling. We came home to a happy dog and Jesse even brought in some packages for us. He sent great pictures and video and kept us updated about how Oscar was doing.”

About: I’m a pre-vet major with a love for all animals, especially dogs! I’m 19 years old, a full time student, and have 5 years of dogsitting and dog walking experience! I have a soft spot for older dogs, as well as experience caring for young litters of pups! I walk some of my clients’ dogs in their own backyard trails, and a few I transport to local parks for our walks. I love all of my clients dogs like they’re my own, and take special care to encourage their interests, and adapt our time together to fit their personality and needs! I have 6 repeat clients that I’ve met through rover, and treasure the time that I spend with their pets. The reoccurring clients I’ve had for 8 months have become a staple in my life, and a regular in my routine. It’s so special to be the part of the week that a dog looks forward to!! Booking a few weeks in advance is a good way to ensure I’m able to work around YOUR schedule! I take pride in caring for your pets like they are my own! As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of not only respecting your dog’s boundaries, but also the rules you have for your dog! If you or your pet need to be accommodated in any way I’ll do my best to make it happen!

About: I’ve been caring for both dogs and cats almost my entire life! It started with asking my neighbor if I could walk her dog when I was 8 years old, and I’ve never looked back! Since, I’ve watched countless animals (sheep and cows too!) and also have spent a lot of time volunteering at local animal shelters in Los Angeles and while studying at college in Maine. I’m comfortable with all sizes and temperaments of dogs, and can provide any service (think all the way from couch potato to a long hike!) I’m committed to keeping all animals safe, healthy, and happy no matter what, and am excited to help in any way! I am able to walk dogs on my days off from my service, and can sometimes even manage to walk dogs around my schedule, usually later in the day. I have a fenced yard, gates up inside of the house, and another dog (a 4 year old Golden Retriever) as well as two adults living in the house, offering great safety and security in the environment. My dog is not currently with me, but because I have experience of living with animals, it’s quite easy for me to adapt to someone else’s space with animals! I prefer a clean, organized space where animals feel calm.

About: I've always carried a deep passion to care for animals since I can remember. I love dogs that are not mine as if they were my own! I have many years experience caring for dogs and other animals. Ive always had jobs in kennels and daycares. I am confident your pet will be very happy in my care. I have taken care of dogs who need extra medical attention, older dogs, puppies, etc. I am more than happy to meet your expectations and accommodate your needs for your furry friend. I am offering day long care for your pet. We can do walks, hikes, swimming, even a play day at the park. Single walks, hikes, swimming, trips to the park. Drop ins to your home for up to 2 hours at a time. Available late night and early morning. I take pride in loving your pet like my own and I hope we can work together :) I have a lot of available time to help your pets in need! My schedule is very flexible. I am currently transitioning from being a stay at home mom. I’m very trustworthy and make sure your pet is safe at all times! Whether off leash walks are allowed or on leash at all times. I will make sure your pet is always treated as if it were my own.

About: My schedule is a bit fuller in the summer, but may be able to still help with your pet! Recently moved from NW CT to GB, looking for part time work and opportunities to meet your furry loved ones. I had a variety of pets growing up, with a lot of experience with special needs animals (blind, older, aggression, etc). I am very patient with timid or upset dogs and have leash-trained dogs in the past. I have past experience house-sitting, dog-walking, and grooming. Cats are unique individuals, I've thoroughly enjoyed getting to know them. I love all types and shapes of dogs, but have a soft spot for larger breeds. I think it is hilarious when dogs are excited to meet me, they do not know that I am always just as excited to see them! My schedule is pretty open at the moment, my current job has slow periods. I have been working in the outdoor education and recreation industry for about 4 years now. I like to stay active, I'm happy to possibly bring your pets on hikes with me. I have been housesitting for over 5 years now, generally staying with clients' pets. I am a clean, sober person who has respect for privacy.

About: Hi everyone, I’m Amanda! Currently a stay at home mom raising my 5 and 6 year old human children, and my 7year old mix and crazy kitten! We’re all avid hikers and nature lovers, being outside is our absolute favorite! I grew up having dogs, mostly mixes and rescues, so I know how to gently approach pets that may have trust issues or who may be shy. With our mix having husky in her, I know all about high energy and how to get them relaxed and sleepy! Walking, running, and hiking are what we use to personally exercise our dogs so I can make sure whatever works best for your pup is what we’ll do! If needed I can be open to at home boarding, but I would first need to be sure they’d get along with my dogs :) Thank you for reading! I'm currently home full time with my kids in school, so I'm available from 9A - 2P (depending on distance) and after 5 during the week, as needed on the weekends. We have a large yard, and lead available for dogs who may need it. Currently our dog does well to stay on our property, she loves walking down to the brook for a dip!

“Madison was great with communication and punctuality. Wesson had a great time on his walk and was very happy playing fetch!”

I’m flexible as well and can roll with the punches.
