“First official walk today with Finn and received detailed information on how everything went. Haley arrived on time and I can tell from the pics that my boy already loves her. Thank you!!”

“This was the second time I used Tara for visits while I was away and she was wonderful again! She also let me know when my dog wasn’t feeling great so I was able to have family make her some food to help with her stomach issues.”


About: Growing up on a ranch, I cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, horses, and exotic animals—so very little surprises me! 😊 Pet sitting was actually my first neighborhood “business” as a kid, which tells you this has always been more passion than side gig. Being away from home for school these past few years, I’ve dearly missed caring for animals— so this is my way of staying connected to something I love. I’m a naturally curious person and take the time to learn each pet’s personality and routines so I can give them attentive, enriching care while you’re away. 😊 I’ll be working remotely for the foreseeable future, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care naturally into my day. I can accommodate different feeding and walking schedules, playtime, medication, check-ins, and plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. Since my work travels with me, I’m also flexible with longer stays and can be around much more than someone working outside the home. I know how important it is to trust someone not only with your pet, but with your home. I take both seriously and will follow your instructions and your pet’s usual routine closely. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, or energy and always prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and secure. I’m also more than happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away😊
About: I have been around dogs and other animals, everything from chickens to guinea pigs, my whole life! I have pet sit for many friends and family members in the past. I love playing with my fur babies and am great with any size dog. I also love to teach/reinforce new tricks and basic obedience training, just let me know what commands you use! I started my business this year doing business and bookkeeping! I have a very flexible schedule and I am completely available to care for your pet in any way. I will do my best to form a trusting bond between me and your pet or pets. I love incorporating games and learning into my visits!
About: I've been looking after dogs and cats since I was 12! They've ranged from my grandma's shitzu to dog sitting mastiffs! I've even watched reptiles like ball pythons and geckos. I've walked, bathed, fed, watered, and loved them the whole time. I, myself, have 2 bunnies, fish, and a ball python. All together the most dogs I've ever watched at the same time was 28! It was 5 adults dogs, one puppy the equivalent to a toddler, and 22 puppies! I am willing to go to the cape and islands for house sitting! At the moment I'm hoping that pet care will become a full-time job. At the moment I am able to do any day and any time. I, sadly, do not have a cute puppy or kitty to play with your fur baby, however it just means they get more love from me! I can lift a 75 pound dog if needed and have the resources to contain one if necessary.
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)

“Ellie was great with Kiki while we were gone. She brought her for nice long walks around the neighborhood. She was also thoughtful to ask if she should leave a light on for her in the evening and to also stick with a shaded route when it was really hot out. I (and Kiki) would recommend her and book again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fairhaven
Haley always does a great job watching my fur baby. She leaves detailed messages about her time with her (walking routes, potty time and if everything looked normal) and lots of pictures. She follows instructions and took notes on little details about fur baby (raincoat in the rain, commands etc.) I always feel good leaving her with Haley. Highly recommend if you need someone to watch your fur baby.

Kellie R. Was a great dog walker for our 1.5 year old Cavalier. She walked her daily taking some time to play fetch and keeping her water bowl full. She sent photos via Rover which is very reassuring when you are away. We recommend Kellie R and will reach out to her again.

Colleen was great as always! She went the extra mile to do a sweep of the house to make sure there were no accidents since I've recently changed dog food and was worried. She tidied up the pillow fort and toy dump phoebe always makes. I always feel relaxed traveling when I book with Colleen. Thank you!

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
