About: As a devoted dog mom and experienced pet sitter, I treat every pup like part of the family. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes—from playful puppies to large breeds and senior dogs with specialized needs. I’ve worked through behavior training with my own rescue pup, so I understand the importance of patience, routine, and positive reinforcement. Whether your dog needs an active playmate, a gentle companion, or just someone to keep their routine consistent while you’re away, I’m here to give them the same love and attention they get at home. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly rhythm. I work full-time Monday through Thursday, but I’m available for evening care during the week. On Fridays I work mornings, so I’m available afternoon & evening. My weekends are fully open for pet care needs. Whether it’s daily drop-ins or evening walks, I love spending time with dogs and make sure they’re a priority in my schedule. I care for pets like they’re my own—because that’s exactly how I approach things in both my home and my clients’ homes. At home, I care for my dog Milo, who I’ve personally trained, as well as our family dog Annie and my sister’s energetic puppy, Oakley. I’m used to managing multiple dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I prioritize keeping pets safe, on routine, and feeling loved. I always respect each dog’s schedule, feeding instructions, and comfort preferences, and I’m happy to send updates so you can feel confident while you’re away.

Sass did an excellent job taking care of our 2 cats! She was able to get 3 meds into our cat with her creative food mixtures! We recommend her highly and will use her again!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have two dogs, Chance and Otto, and I know how much our pets mean to us. When your pet is in my care, they will be treated with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I previously worked as a sea lion and dolphin trainer at Gulf World Marine Park, where I gained hands on experience with animal care, behavior, and training. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work weekdays until 4:30 PM and am available for evening visits, overnight stays, and weekend pet care. I would love the opportunity to meet you and care for your pets! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting on weekdays and weekends. I walk them daily and make sure they get plenty of exercise! I also have lots of dog toys:) I make sure their is plenty of water and food for them at all times

About: I’m someone you can trust to care for your dog like they’re my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love animals, so your pet will get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you’re away. I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy on every walk. I currently work full time but I get off at 3:30pm. That leaves plenty of time for a nightly check in or a walk around the neighborhood! I have a miniature dachshund of my own! We go on at least one walk a day. We have dates at the dog park, and swims at the lake! Lots of fetch gets played and lots of belly rubs are given!

About: I’ve had cats and dogs by entire life. Big, small, energetic, or chill, I’ve taken care of and seen all kinds but I especially love larger breeds! Im working full time but wanting to do something a little extra and get to enjoy some time with pups and cats too! I’m available on weekends and Fridays afternoons and nights! I’m happy to take your dog or cat on walks, have a play date, and complete basic needs like taking out for potty breaks and crate when needed!

Adelle, Bosun gave you high 4 paws leap. I had never seen the calm dog channel. What is it called in the Guide? Give me a call when you have a chance. The tip connection is not working. Thanks, George

Emilia is fantastic!!! She was responsive and communicated every visit ! Pictures of every dog every visit!! Emilia was able to book on short notice , showed up early for our meet and greet and communicated incredibly well throughout the stay. We are very grateful we found Emilia and I will absolutely book with her again. The best part of working with Emilia is she truly loves the animals she cares for. This is is so helpful as a dog mom who has separation anxiety! I love knowing my pups are having fun and getting lots of love when I have to be away. Also, my pack is a a little challenging ( everyone has their own personality) and Emilia picked up on all their silly ways right away. Big pulling dog that lunges at bikes but loves people? No problem for Emilia! Strong pullers who also like tug of war- not a problem. Thanks so much Emilia , your visits with my pack made such a difference when I had to be away. Thank you!

Sonya was outstanding! She went above and beyond, as we had a sick pup which she tended to and then had to go pick up more medication and special dog food, as well as some of the mess he made, she was diligent in her care for both of our dogs. She kept me informed nightly with an added touch of cute pictures.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was young. I’m new to Rover but have helped many neighbors, friends, and family with their animals over the years. I’d love to help you keep your pets and family at ease by looking after your pet while you’re away. I work during the day Mondays-Fridays but can easily take your dog out for walks in the morning and in the afternoon once I’m back home. Weekends are usually much more flexible with plenty of time for walks and playtime. I’m comfortable with pets in my home. I don’t currently have any pets of my own, but have a fenced backyard that’s great for your pet to get some fresh air when needed.

Elizabeth did a great job while we were out of town. My dog is not used to being around strangers and she took quickly to her, becoming fast friends. We had great peace of mind knowing our girl was in good hands. We will definitely use her again.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I was #1 dog sitter for about 5-6 neighbors through high school and college. I’ve taken care of many other dogs and cats as well. As a current medical student, I wish I could have my own dog but the time and finances won’t allow until I graduate. So for now, I can help take care of your pets and you can help me get my snuggle fix in! As a medical student, my schedule is often changing. I do have most evenings and weekends free for studying and I could always use a study partner or walk break! School is priority - but I will do my best to work with your schedule as well as my class schedule! I do currently live in an apartment, so boarding pets in my home is not a great option. I’ve stayed at very many homes to care for pets. Your pets health and safety will be my main concern - and I will always respect your home as well!

About: I've grown up having dogs all my life and I work part time at NSCAH in Pelham! I have 2 labs (Luca and Bria) and also a Great Dane(Rainier). They all love playing in our big backyard and getting pets! I care for and play with dogs on a daily basis. At the vet clinic, I care for many dogs ranging from puppies to seniors, so I know how to keep them happy, tired, and healthy! Your dogs will definitely be taken well care of with me! I would love to take care of your pets for you! I work full time at Printswell in Pelham, from 8am-4:30pm M-F. I work at the vet clinic(NSCAH) in Pelham one or two weekends a month. I have time for drop ins before work and after work! If you’re in the Pelham area, I could even go by on my lunch break for a drop in! Just depends on the distance(: I only care for pets in your own household. I care for them exactly as you would. I love when parents write down instructions for me so I can make sure I don’t get anything wrong and take care of the pet as best as possible!
