House Sitting in Bourne

“Once again, Abbie was amazing! Our very senior dog was well taken care of, and our crazy 4 year old welcomed her into the house. Couldn’t ask for more!”

“Daniel did a wonderful job house sitting for our rescue pup. She felt immediately comfortable with him and they had a blast. We would be lucky to have Daniel take care of her again!”

About: I have provided pet care services for friends over the last ten years while friends and neighbors have enjoyed time away on vacations. I can promise that your dogs and cats will be cared for properly, given daily walks, and be provided interactive play time. I have a full-time job which provides flexibility in my daily schedule. I can develop a schedule that works between the client and myself to ensure the needs of the pets are covered. I will offer a time to meet the owners and pets before any service in order to create a trusting and safe environment for the client.

“Heidi is amazing! Took great care of my kitties, sent daily updates and pictures, and even tidied up a little before I came home! My vacation was so much more relaxing knowing my fur babies were in good hands. :) Would absolutely ask Heidi to pet-sit again next time I go out of town!”

About: I offer balance training and hiking for dogs. Each animal has it’s own unique experiences, genetics, strengths and and weaknesses. And I believe that is why it’s crucial to focus on the dog in front of you. This means firm leadership paired with strong relationship for the best results. I like to develop a friendship to the dogs I will be spending time with during initial consultation, prior to the first session. My ideal life is being with dogs as often as I can. I prefer a one on one approach to dog walking to ensure focus on the task at hand while allowing natural outflow of free energy on a routine basis. Exercise is the best tool for all these things. I offer dog walking services to my close friends and family as needed, as dogs have very rudimentary needs that when not met with responsible ownership can cause issues down the line. Out of care for the dogs and their owners it’s in their best interest to seek someone that can form and maintain good habits, even when they’re not around to do it themselves. This keeps the dogs on track and forgoes the need to seek out trouble on their own.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better rover sitter! Will definitely request her next time! Thank you Robyn for talking such good care of my pups!”

“I am writing this to tell you how pleased I am with Christopher as a dog walker and future dog/house sitter for me. Christopher is right on time for walking my dog and Stormy has become fond of him very quickly. Carolyn D”

“Ashley did a great job dog sitting for our corgi. She left the house looking immaculate, she is very quick to respond to questions and comments and we received updates and photos. We will definitely use her again.”

“Our experience with Ashley, was nothing short of outstanding. Ashley's commitment to her job was evident in every interaction we had. Her patience, compassion, and understanding of our dog's needs were remarkable. She built a genuine bond with our dog, Max, and it was clear that he looked forward to their walks with enthusiasm. Ashley's professionalism and reliability were consistent, and she always went above and beyond, ensuring our dog not only got the exercise but also the companionship and care needed. Her regular updates and willingness to accommodate our schedule changes made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. I cannot recommend Ashley enough to anyone seeking a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and compassionate dog walker. She truly became a part of our extended pet-loving family, and we are immensely grateful for the exceptional service she provided.”

“Hannah has provided top notch care for Digger, my 10 year old golden retriever for over 2 years now. She’s reliable, caring, and also does a great job of communicating how my dog is doing. I recommend Hannah for walks as well as drop ins, which are super helpful on busy days.”

“We needed to find the right person to stay in our home who could provide meds and care for our epileptic dog. Jared was terrific. He asked questions and listened to make sure he understood Ellie’s needs, and she enjoyed his visit. We felt confident she was in good hands.”

“Fantastic job thank you so much!”

“Hi. I’m Denise. I wanted to write a recommendation for Ashley. Ashley has been my neighbor for all of her life. Ashley has walked my dog Riley from 2010 to 2015. Ashley would do daily walks, drop in visits that would include feedings and giving treats. Riley’s most enjoyable time with Ashley was belly rubs and playing in the backyard!!”

“Michael is a wonderful young man. He is a true lover of dogs and will always take good care of any animal. He has taken care if my dog and he has done a wonderful job!”

“Sadie is extremely kind and caring and knows a lot about cats and dogs as she is a vet technician. She watched my dog for about a week for me and was great at communicating the whole time. She followed everything I asked of her beforehand and was awesome to work with. She took my dog for walks, on car rides, and even let her sleep in bed with her! Next time I need a dog sitter, she’s who I’m calling first!”

“Amanda has taken care of our older dog twice now and each time it has been a great experience. She is attentive to his needs and leaves our house spotless after a multi-day stay! Thank you!”

“Toni has been watching my 2 fur babies for about a year now. From taking them for walks on a weekly basis, or overnight and weekend aways, I have never felt more comfortable trusting someone with my babies. Doza and Nova get so excited when they see her, or better yet over hear her on the phone, as they know she's on her way! If you're looking for someone who goes the extra mile to ensure that your pups are happy, healthy and safe, I would highly recommend Toni!”

“Marie was great - lost of pictures and updates. She made my time away less stressful knowing he was being well taken care of!”
