Sue was wonderful. Our dogs took minimal time being comfortable with her, where they normally take 15-30 min to warm up to people. When we returned home the dogs were happy and Sue left the house spotless. Thank you so much for a great experience, Sue!

Olivia was amazing. Managed our 3 chaotic dogs, including a usually standoffish little dog. They all seemed to open up to her and trust her! Thank you Olivia!

Morgan was the best Rover ever for our pets AND for us! We appreciated how attentive she was hiking with our dog active, and keeping both her and our house clean. Updates were sent daily with pictures keeping us confident while we were away. Outstanding!

About: Animals bring me so much happiness. I lived in a household with dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens and lizards for several years. I loved starting my day with them every morning. They all have their own special personalities. It would be my pleasure to spend time with your pets and make them feel loved and cared for. I will provide exercise and playing, medication administration, provide your pet with fresh food and water or just some cuddle time if needed. If you need additional services I am more than happy to try and accommodate you. Our pets are a part of our families and I will do my best to make sure they feel happy, safe and comfortable in their environment. It's all about the animals for me. I have a pretty flexible schedule and love to stay busy. Nothing makes me happier than filling my days caring for your pets. I am coming into your home and want your animal to be as comfortable as possible. I want to make sure their daily routine stays the same and they feel safe, relaxed and happy with me.

About: I have worked in veterinary medicine for over 6 years and have been a pet owner most of my life. I have had a hospice dog and have a soft spot for senior animals. I currently have a Siberian husky, a husky/shepard mix and 2 cats! I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to be available as needed. Animals are a significant part of my life and I look forward to helping you and your family. I am available for dog walks, drop ins, or pet sitting. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats as part of our family. They are definitely spoiled but also well trained. I take pet care very seriously, every animal deserves respectful and loving care. My dogs require a lot of activity due to their breeds which has given me a lot of experience with high energy, high needs dogs.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve never had a formal job with animals, but I’ve grown up around them and have helped with a myriad of different roles for friends, family, neighbors, etc. I have never met a dog or cat that I don’t love! I work full-time in Hanover from Monday through Friday. However, I am more than happy to fit in care before or after the work day. I am also available on weekends! My schedule is as follows: Monday: 9:30 am - 5:30 pm Tuesday: 8:30 am - 4:30/5:00 pm Wednesday: 7:30 am - 3:30 pm Thursday: 8:30 am - 4:30/5:00 pm Friday: 8:30 am - 4:30/5:00 pm I am a very thoughtful, caring, and detail-oriented person. I intend on listening to my clients’ desires and doing everything in my power to make sure the pet(s) receive everything they need!

Danny was great! He sent videos and pictures of the fun the cats were having. The kitties learned new ways to play which was exciting for them. He stayed in our home and left it as he found it: We are very pleased with his care for our fur balls and will definitely request his services again.

About: I grew up around dogs my whole life as I have lived on a school campus! Dogs are something that I have always wanted, but never got the chance to have. The biggest thing that sets me apart is that I have plenty of love left to give to your pet! As a college student I have Friday-Sundays off therefor I have a lot of free time to play around with dogs! I also live with 7 other girls who would be more than happy to have a lil pup in town! I am willing to stay overnight at owners house if that is needed! If pets are to come to my apartment, they would have plenty of outdoor space to play around safely!

About: I have been pet sitting/houses sitting for over three years now and I love it!!! I realized after needing a dog sitter myself a few years ago that it can be really hard to find someone reliable to take care of your fur babies when you’re away so I definitely pride myself on being able to help take the stress off of being away from home. I’m a crochet artist who primarily works from home, making me highly available for pet sitting jobs. I can work from anywhere, ensuring flexibility for both you and me. I go above and beyond to provide in-home care for all your pets, ensuring their every need is met, including walks, medication administration, and plenty of love.

About: Dogs bring such joy! I believe they are gifts and we are lucky to have them in our lives. We currently have a spoiled Australian Shepherd. I have learned so much as an Aussie mom, and love sharing helpful info with other dog parents, especially if they have a herding breed. I love all dogs, no exceptions! They deserve to be spoiled and appreciated for who they are. I offer pet care in your home, where your pet is most comfortable. I also have my own pet care insurance. I work full time in the upper valley and have a flexible schedule that allows me to work from home several days a week. If you have WiFi, I’m happy to work from your home to accommodate full-time snuggles and care for your pet while you’re away! I believe that dogs are part of the family. I love spending time with them, walking with them and helping them to socialize. They are gifts!

We are incredibly grateful for the amazing care Jackie provided for our Bernese mountain dog Zeus. Stepping in on short notice and staying at our home was a huge help, and it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Jackie is reliable, communicative, trustworthy, and genuinely caring—everything you could hope for in a pet sitter. We would absolutely book with Jackie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pets. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Zeus!

About: Hello! Thank you for checking out my profile! :) My name is Ash and I've been petsitting for 15+ years. My mother and I started a business when I was 16 and we were very successful for a long time! The only reason we ever stopped is because we had to relocate. So as you can imagine, I'm extremely experienced with pets of all kinds - dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, birds, horses, cows -- you name it! I've been a sitter for dogs of all ages and all sizes as well. I have a very flexible schedule and am willing to bring your furry friends to and from the vet or grooming appointments, and I'm able to administer medication if necessary! At the moment I'm unemployed so I have an open schedule! I do have two other clients but can work around their schedules no problem! I'm able to follow whatever the safety protocols are for your pets in your home! Including electric fences, regular fenced yards, leashes, crates, and so on, as well as arming home security systems when I leave, taking out the trash, minor cleaning, bringing in your mail, etc!
