“Haley was great! Our dog Phoebe loved her right away and you can tell Haley has the experience necessary to handle new dogs in new environments. We will definitely be rebooking in a few weeks!”

“Dependable, kind and most importantly Blue loves her. Our situation at the time meant we didn’t meet her first. Trusted the app and now trust Ixia with our most cherished family member. Thank you”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15! I’ve had pets all my life growing up though! My neighbors, friends, and family, have relied on me to feed, walk, play, and give cuddles to their pups! I currently am working part time as I just started a new job, so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup and get them some exercise! My home has a fenced in dog park that i’m sure your dog would love to run around in and get some energy out! If your dog is better on a leash and loves to walk and sniff around your area I am happy to do that as well! I just want to be able to give your pup a safe and happy visit 😊
“We signed up for the app and sent a message to Angela and Adam and got a response within minutes. They immediately booked a meet and greet. Our boy,Teddy, still has a bunch of puppy energy and can be intimidating to some because of his size. He is 80lbs of muscle and marshmallow. He is a rescue and not much is known about his past so there were some things we were concerned about in finding someone to walk him, but they both were very confident that they could handle him. Their demeanor made our family feel so comfortable. It's been a week and he has taken to Angela and Adam very well. They communicate when they are on their way and when they've left. They send pics that show he is having a blast. We are very happy knowing that Teddy is getting some exercise and TLC during the day and is in great hands!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life growing up, we had family dogs like beagles, goldendoodles, and a Shih Tzu. While living with my dad in New Bedford, I helped care for his pitbull and spent time with our goldendoodle, too. I’ve also helped friends with their dogs, including caring for a Chihuahua while my friend traveled. I’m confident with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I always treat them with patience, love, and care. specialize in dog walking, cat care, and drop-in visits since I can’t host pets in my home. As a mom, I understand the importance of trust and routine, and I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own family. Whether your dog needs a good walk or your cat just needs feeding and some playtime, I’ll make sure they’re happy, safe, and cared for. I’m all about creating a calm, safe space where pets feel loved and relaxed. I have experience handling different pet personalities and making sure they feel at home , I treat every fur baby like family with lots of love, play, and attention to their routine and comfort.
“I felt very confident when she was enthusiastic about setting up a quick meet and greet. She completed the walk despite a minor collar failure, and I appreciated her transparency with the situation. Professional, polite, and wonderful to work with!”


“Colleen is so good with our dogs. She is punctual and thoughtful. She does more than we ask - she treats them. I am so glad we found her. She is so pleasant has been great with our last minute needs.”

“Kristie and Dom are great! They are so kind, and take such great care of our puppy!! They always send photos while they are there, and follow all the directions I leave to a T! I highly recommend them”

“Tara has been great. She took my three dogs on a walk and then played with them. She takes good care especially of my 3-month old puppy. I feel like my dogs are safe with her and she’s extreme communicative! She’s really great and I will definitely use her again!”

About: Growing up i had a husky and a chocolate lab a couple pit bulls amongst other animals like ferrets, ducks and plenty of cats. I live with my 9 goldfish and two male corgis mixed with Australian cattle dog, 5 and 4 year old now :) I work Monday -Fridays 7am-3pm so I would be available anytime after that during the week and on Saturday and Sundays i am flexible with the times. I look forward to spending time, exercising and playing with your fur babies I'm currently working full time during the week but at night I can take your pups out for walks or play with then in the back yard. And if you happen to have cats I can also feed and play with them too. I love all animals. I don't have boarding as an option, I do offer to stay overnights if needed. I would give your fur baby love attention just as I would give mine.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 15! Dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits, and fish from all breads and ages, big or small. I take care in bathing, grooming, feeding, and walking! I am currently a student full-time so I am only available during holiday breaks and in the summer. I take care of my own pets and sisters so I am only available thursday, friday, and on weekends. I can keep to the schedule you give me for your companion! I can give baths, play, feeding, and go on walks. I take lots of pictures and will update you on how the walk/sitting is going frequently. I know every companion has their own personality and will take the time to get to know them to make their experience with sitters a comfortable one!

About: I have many years of experience with dogs of different breeds. I am willing and able to run, walk or simply spend time with your pet. I will treat them as my own and respect any rules you have set for your dog. I am available during the summer months full time and after September all weekend hours or days after 3:30.. I could even be available for early morning walks or willing to have a pet overnight. I currently have a 6 year old Schnoodle who loves company. I love walking on the beach and bike path with my dog and would love to bring yours along for the fun. Any questions please contact me through Rover.com thank you for your time and interest.
About: I've had all types of animals growing up. From small critters to dogs. Currently own 2 cats named Sasha and Coco, chickens and have 3 freshwater fish tanks. I've house/pet sit for friends over the years. I have pretty good flexibility everyday for short visits > 2 hours. I have two young children in school so depending on time frame one might have to accompany me but if not needed I can work around it. My cats are pretty self sufficient as cats are but they are fed every morning and evening and get treats. They are indoor cats aged 7 and 8. I feed fish daily and do water changes once a week as Maintenance. Chickens are a bit more daily maintenance with cleaning out coop everyday and filling water and feeder but it's rewarding (especially with getting eggs)
“Liza is patient, communicative and professional. Our dog is nervous to new people. She greeted him in a way that was appropriate and is building his confidence to trust her and enjoy his walks. She helped me to navigate this app. We feel grateful that Nochi has someone with experience, skill and empathy.”

About: I have taken care of my family dog in many different capacities since I was 6 years old, and I enjoy walking, playing with, or just being active around all different kinds of dogs! I currently work at a middle school, so my summers, weekends, and afternoons are generally free! I also live in a pet-friendly home and a great spot for walks near the downtown New Bedford area. I make sure pets I’m taking care of can get a proper amount of attention and activity, so it feels like less of a scary change and more of a fun playdate.
