“Justine was a phenomenal sitter! We had a bit of a last minute need for a sitter and couldn’t be more happy with our experience. Justine was attentive, helpful, and incredibly friendly. We had so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog Violet got along so well with her Piper, and they definitely became fast friends. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Sara took such great care of my Norma the 4 nights we were on the Cape for vacation! Norma is an anxious girl and Sara was able to quickly attune to her and help her feel right at ease (Norma usually barks when she meets new people; she didn’t bark at all upon meeting Sara and warmed to her very quickly!). Sara was responsive and communicative throughout Norma’s stay, sending along status updates and sweet photos and videos of Norma looking relaxed and happy. I will definitely have Norma stay with Sara the next time I’m on the Cape! Would highly recommend Sara to anyone looking for great dog care!”
“Jackie is amazing! Every time I got a photo of Saffie she was smiling ear to ear! I felt absolutely comfortable leaving Saffie with her and while she was excited to see me when I picked her up I could also tell she was a bit sad to leave which is always a good sign 😊”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and they are truly the best thing to ever happen to me. I am often called upon to dogsit when family & friends go out of town, I have lots of experience house/dog sitting and when the owners return they always are impressed with how their dog and home were taken care of. I have a rescue dog named Finley who is my whole world so you can rest assured I will treat your dog as my own and spoil them with lots of cuddles and belly rubs. I’m a teacher so weekends I’m always free and am usually always with my dog. I’m available most afternoons for drop in visits or to take your dog for a walk. Summers are also a time when I am completely free and would love to be able to care for your dog(s) while you enjoy a summer vacation! I have a fenced in backyard and a very friendly hound mix dog to keep your dog company. She loves to play and wants to be friends with every dog we meet. I can also easily crate your dog if needed.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover and dependable walker who knows that every pup has their own personality and pace. From high-energy zoomies to slow sniff-filled strolls, I’m happy to tailor each walk to what makes your dog happiest. I also have experience working with reactive dogs, so I know how to keep walks calm, safe, and positive. Whether it’s fresh air, exercise, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’ll make sure your dog feels cared for and comes home with a wagging tail. Think of me as your dog’s new walking buddy — ready for adventure, belly rubs, and everything in between! I work full-time, and am fully remote. My days provide good flexibility to accomodate walks, let-outs, and canine slumber parties. I have a 12 year-old Pyrenees/Border-Collie mix, who loves to get out and move around, so I'm no stranger to the 4-5 walks/day schedule ;) Maintaining your trust, and your furry family member's safety will always be top priority. I will always defer to owners and their guidance, since parents know best! Home care will focus on meals, finding comfortable spots in lieu of a potentially awkward new setting, and lots of love and support. I know how anxious I get when I leave Oreo (my pup) alone for 15 minutes to run an errand, so I hope to alleviate those concerns and ensure that your pup will have a blast.
About: Hi! What makes me different is I enjoy my time being spent with the pups. I will always have my attention on the pup. I will make sure he eats goods take him to the nearest by park, walk them around, play with them inside. I have a fenced in yard and if your dog loves hiking I have a hiking trail behind my neighborhood also have a beach close by if there a beach kinda pup. I make sure to interact as much as I can and allowed so they don’t feel so upset the owner is gone I know it can be hard. I am also very reliable. I want nothing more than to make a good experience for the pup and owner as I would expect that for my own pup! please reach out and let me know how I can make this a great experience for you. Looking forward to working with new pups! I work part time. But I would like this to be the job I mostly work I love animals especially caring for them and making sure they have good experience. I will make sure the dog is always being watched especially the little ones. I will make sure it’s safe for everyone in every sceneries.
About: Hello! I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and am excited to learn more about your pup. I have a very friendly golden retriever who will be home during your dog’s stay and will be around all day to play with your dog and can take them out at regular intervals. Look forward to hearing from you! I’m currently working on from home so I have plenty of time to spend with your dog! I’m up usually around 7am and can take the dog out first thing, then usually take the dogs out around 11pm for a last potty break. I’m very clean/organized and will be respectful of your home and belongings should you need me to stop by your home to watch your pup

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Barnstable
Outstanding!! Pupper is a fairly shy, quiet little dog, but he immediately took to Isabella -- she absolutely "gets" dogs. Her home is very well set up for dogs, with cozy beds, generous water bowls, and pup blankets on the sofa. The many photos she sent me during Pupper's stay showed me that he was completely happy and comfortable, either in her arms or lounging in a dog bed, keeping an eye on the kitchen. :) Isabella is a treasure and I highly recommend!
