About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats. I have always been involved in pet care, as early as 9 years old by feeding my family cats and walking my dogs. I have experience with diabetic dogs, giving them their shots. I also have experience with anxious dogs, especially ones that come from troubled pasts. I am a college student currently home for the summer so I have plenty of time to devote to taking care of your pups or cats! I am experienced with dogs that tug on leashes or aren’t exactly well trained. I am good at reading dogs’ emotions and giving them what they need. I am also detail oriented and will make sure to follow any instructions left for me to the T.

Needed someone to play ball with my dogs while I was out of town and my wife was home recovering from surgery. Peggy was accommodating and reliable. She helped tire out the pups so my wife could continue to heal. Would definitely use again!

We are repeat customers for Kiley. She is great with our dog, he is a fussy guy but he really responds well to her. She is trustworthy and reliable and communicates well with us. We love the photos she sends while we are away and we are very happy with her services!

About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve been raised with dogs my entire life, and I also have three years of hands-on experience at a doggie boarding and daycare facility. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all types, from reactive dogs to high-energy pups. I understand the importance of positive reinforcement and am experienced in meeting the dietary and exercise needs of dogs. What Sets Me Apart: What truly sets me apart is my genuine compassion for animals. I offer a personalized experience, whether it’s hiking to burn off energy, providing calm and comfort for reactive dogs, or ensuring senior pups get the special care they need. My expertise in stimulating high-energy dogs and my knowledge of their specific needs makes me the perfect choice for your dog’s next adventure or stay! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I make sure to schedule time for walks, play sessions, and one-on-one attention for each animal I care for. Whether it’s getting up early to take a dog on a hike or spending extra time with a shy cat to build trust, I always prioritize their needs. I’m flexible and able to adapt to different schedules, ensuring pets get the love and care they deserve, no matter what else is going on in my day. In my home, I create a comfortable, pet-friendly environment where animals can thrive. For dogs, that means daily hikes, interactive play sessions, and plenty of cuddle time. I make sure each dog gets the exercise and attention they need to feel happy and secure. For cats, I adjust the atmosphere to their personality—whether it’s quiet, cozy space for a shy cat or active playtime to keep a kitten entertained. I’m also experienced with dietary needs, allergies, and administering medications if necessary. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it as an extension of my own. I make sure their routines are kept intact, from feeding schedules to favorite activities. I believe in providing consistent care that allows them to feel safe and comfortable, just as they would in their own home. Whether it’s a dog who loves to hike or a cat who needs extra TLC, I’m committed to offering personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m also skilled at handling reactive animals, training, and ensuring each pet’s emotional well-being is prioritized. My years of experience with both kittens and senior cats, combined with my ability to train and manage high-energy dogs, makes me stand out. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m a pet caretaker who goes above and beyond to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away.

About: I’m new to dog walking professionally, but I’m very comfortable around dogs and eager to learn. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive, and I take responsibility seriously especially when it comes to animal care and safety. I am willing to work with pets of any age and size. I also will be able to give you a reference if that make you more comfortable of course is not easy to leave your baby with someone you don’t know in hopes that that will make it easier. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Currently work at a Public School. I’m available for morning walks and afternoon walks. I’m also available during the weekend. I will have more availability during the Summer. I have a friendly dog what would love to keep your fur baby company. I also have a big yard the can play in but will keep them on a long leach for safety. How’s your dog with kids? I also have a 7 year old daughter who shares the same love for animals as I do!.

About: I have had and cared for dogs for about 20 years since I was 10 years old. My fiancé and I adopted our golden retriever, Izzy in 2021. For 4 years I have been a volunteer and a foster at Forever Home Rescue in Medfield, caring for the dogs that are transported weekly up from the south to find their forever families. We have fostered 23 so far through the rescue and ONLY adopted ONE, Pongo 🐶😊 I work a hybrid schedule currently and go into the office 2 to 3 days a week. I generally do not do week long boardings due to my work schedule, however it can sometimes be arranged depending on the week/ my husband and my schedules, so please still inquire! I have a fenced-in yard and two dogs, Izzy, a 4 year old Golden Retriever and Pongo, a 3 year old Lab/Weimaraner mix. They are both very sweet and happy pups who love and are used to having dog- guests (whether boarding or fosters). They go to daycare every Tuesday and are well socialized and good with sharing their toys/beds/treats/etc. Pongo can be weary/protective the first time he meets a new dog and may give a growl or 2, but warms up quickly once he realizes they are friendly too! Izzy and Pongo are both on the calmer side, and do best with dogs who will play/wrestle/run with them outside and then relax, lounge, and chew on some Benebones inside without them! Your dog is free to nap and hangout on the couch, dog beds, or our bed.

This was our first time hiring Jill and she did an awesome job coming to our home to check in on our three pups. We only needed afternoon visits and she did a great job spending time with them outside and making sure their water bowl was full. She left our house locked up and alarm set with no problems. Because Jill was so reliable and professional we hired her for the remaining 2 weeks that we needed the extra help. I not only recommend her but will hire her in the future!

About: Hi, my wife Ali and I have been taking care of and walking dogs for years. We have 3 small dogs and 1 parrot of our own. We live in a house with our own yard. My wife is always home as she works from home and I work overnight so your pet will never be alone. We love to care for all dogs or other animals! We have 2 young children so your dog must be good around kids as well. If you have any questions please message me. Unfortunately at the time we are not accepting any large breeds (dogs that stand really tall on 4 legs) unless they are a small puppy and are 35-40lbs or less. We are am extremely flexible with pet schedules, as of right now we bring our own dogs out every 3-4 hours for potty breaks and playtime outdoors. We visit a local dog park and we also have a yard. We have our own yard and we will be outside with your dog on leash, never left unsupervised, safety for everyone is important to us.

About: I have over five years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments through my job at Happy Tails Doggy Daycare, where I was promoted to the highest-level handler. Every day, I managed groups of 15+ dogs, monitored behavior, prevented conflicts, and helped create a safe, positive environment for every dog in my care. I also have experience administering medication and caring for both young and senior dogs. On a personal level, I’ve owned three dogs myself, and one of my current dogs is very anxious and reactive, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs that need extra patience, structure, and attention. I truly love working with animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m currently home from college for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pups the attention and care they deserve! I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and pet care at a variety of hours, and I’m happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pets are well cared for and comfortable. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, feeding on schedule, bathroom breaks, and lots of affection. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior and energy level to make sure they are happy and comfortable, and I’m experienced in handling dogs with different personalities and needs, including reactive and senior dogs. My goal is always to create a calm, positive environment where pets feel secure and well cared for while their owners are away.

Jacey is awesome! She took such great care of my 8-year old German Shepherd while we were away at Disney for Thanksgiving week. She was super reliable with her timing, feeding schedule, and walks. So sweet, kind, and helpful, everything you hope for when leaving your fur babies with a sitter. Thank you, Jacey, for taking such good care of Letty! She was so happy when I got back. And an extra thank you for putting out the recycling and trash for me! I’ve used Rover for a while and always found great, trusted sitters and Jacey is definitely one of the best 🙂

Miles was attentive and dependable, and my somewhat standoffish cats warmed up to him after a day. It was great to get daily photos and see how they were doing.

This was our first time using Rover, and we were so happy to find Angela. She made the entire experience easy and worry free by providing regular updates and photos, and letting us know how our Enzo was doing during their first time together. We booked her for two daily drop ins and everything went smoothly. Knowing that Angela is highly experienced and professional in handling dogs of all sizes and their unique behaviors and quirks gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Thank you so much, Angela!
