About: Whether it’s a drop in for some love, attention, fresh air, or to do business I’ll be your dogs second best friend (after you and your family, of course). Or it’s a nice walk on a sunny day to stretch our legs and sniff the air, your furry friend is in good hands. With the right amount of treats, love, discipline, and boundaries your dog and I are bound to have a grand time together on our outing(s). I have a 65lb pit mix myself. Her name is Dottie and she is 8 years old. Together we have driven across the country, gone on long hikes, and learned how to social with other dogs. While she’ll stay at home during my visit with your dog, her scent will stick with me for an intriguing sniff-interrogation by your pup.
About: I have a passion for dogs and I enjoy spending time with dogs and taking the time to train them. I am dog walking various types of dogs and focused on leash pulling, reactivity, recall and basic commands. I'm currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule. I work every other weekend in the morning and afternoon and I work a few nights. I have a young dog at home I often take him on walks and play ball with him. I also have a 13 years old English Golden Retriever. I still take her on small walks. I regularly walk two Great Danes 2-3 times a week. I working on leash reactivity and pulling.
About: I will treat your pets as if they are my own. I have been taking care of pets since I was 12. I’ve fostered puppies, watched neighbors pets, worked at an animal shelter, and have training skills. I have my own dog as well! An Australian shepherd who just turned a year old! I work mostly in the afternoons 1pm-6pm I’m available for walks later in the evening into late at night! I’m available early in the mornings as well! I’m currently in grad school, doing my internship, and working full time so I can do odd hours or work around schedules pretty well! I care for pets as if they’re my own. I understand wanting someone who will treat your pet with patience and care. They are your family and should be treated as such!
About: I am your typical dog lover. I have been a member for rover for years and built a consistent clientele. My goal is to give your dog the best care as if they were my own! Accommodations can be made for any of my services offered. I work full time but accommodations can be made. Best available after 2:00pm on most days, but living an active lifestyle makes it easy to add a furry friend to my nightly runs or walks. Making sure your animal is comfortable is my main priority. Catering to each pets specific needs is how I gain trust from each new pet.
“Vanessa was great with my sister’s cat Hades who is usually very shy but warmed up to Vanessa very quickly. She was on time and fed him his meal just as instructed. Lovely individual, will definitely book with her again.”
“Amy was so wonderful! She left us such detailed notes and sent lots of pictures, and it was such a relief knowing our dogs were in such good hands while we were away! Wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again!”
“Candi is amazing. We have a GSD who is on immunotherapy for his allergies. Candi diligently followed the medicine protocol. During our time away, Loki exhibited signs of ear infections and irritation. She was prompt to contact us. We guided her to get the medication which she was kind enough to administer and clean his ear (not an easy task to do with a gsd) She also took Loki out on walks where she was attentive to keep him disciplined consistent to his training preventing him from walking ahead of her and correcting his behavior in response to distractions. In all, she is the next person who will take care of your pup just as well as you. I have engaged her services multiple times and full stars to her each time”
About: Knowing your pets are a part of your family, its my intentions to provide an opportunity for your pet to at its best. That means learning your pets personality and needs. My Career also entails skills with animals care specifically for sick animals, not that I am veterinary doctor, meaning I help deal with acute health issues. Being a good listener and observer due to my Scientific Career it's only a matter of time before you realize that you pet just might be excited to visit, and even more happier to return to you. Thanks for asking. My work has very set routine. Therefore when I start a project I know the days that I am available throughout its completion due to having to let processes develop on their own. So I am able to designate time for pet sitting in a routine manner and flexible manner. If I know my clients needs, I can adjust my work accordingly. Thanks for asking. My apartment is definitely animal friendly, with only on carpeted room. I will always notify the owner or any health issue, and with coordinate with the owner emergency protocols. Outside, there is a waterfront your pet can visit for walks, large yards that the pet can explore, and even an enclosed area where your pet can be unleashed so they can get a chance to roam free if ever necessary. As far as individual animal routines for food and walks are concerned, I would only take on a job if I was able to provide the animal with its precise schedule. I find animals are more confident when they know what to expect. Thanks for asking.
“Bryce was so great! He was able to help on short notice, and was so wonderful with our great dane. He is friendly, responsive, and dependable. We will definitely use again!”
About: I’ve been around pets since childhood - having 2 cats, hamsters, birds and fish. I am a dog mom to a 15 year old beagle and 12 year old pittie mix both of who I adopted when they were 3 years and the other 9 months old. I walked and was also a house visitor for neighbors dogs all throughout middle school. Wherever I was there was a high possibility I was hanging out with someone’s dog. I work a Monday to Friday position but would love to spend my off hours from the office position doing house check ins and or walks for your pets. I would be able to do house check ins for bathroom breaks-feeding-loving attention-playtime as well as bringing them on walks. I am able to handle big or small & high or low energy pets.
“I could not be happier with the service Madison provided. I came home from a three day trip to a very happy and stress free German Shepard. Madison did exactly what she promised and really helped put my mind at ease while I was away. I highly recommend and will use in the future. Thank You again.”
About: Owned dogs entire life, have trained rescue dogs, and have experience in providing senior care for dogs. My dog is diabetic so I also have experience with insulin injections and oral medication. I have a fenced in backyard and many toys for dogs to play with! I am able to board and care for dogs throughout the weeks due to flexibility in my schedule. I am also willing to let your dog out when available, and help in any way I can! I will make sure the dogs are loved and shown affection, played with, walked, and taken care of as needed. I will always make sure the dogs are happy, have water at all times, toys to play with, etc.
About: My own dogs have lived a wonderful life. They know their boundaries and are spoken to with love and affection. I give them plenty of exercise and am sensitive to their safety and comfort (especially in the heat of summer). As of June 13th I'm on summer vacation from work. I'm totally flexible until September. Other than a few appointments, I'm available for your pet needs. I live in a quiet, safe, neighborhood, perfect for dog walking. I have a huge yard. If I want a fenced yard, my daughter lives down the street with the perfect private back yard.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 8, varying from puppies to senior dogs. I’m known to be very loving and patient with animals and having great connections with pets! I’ve worked with animals of all shapes and sizes and love them all! I have a pretty free schedule for the summer so there is plenty of time for me to spend with your pup! I babysit my 2 year old brother some days and work nights in a pizza shop over the weekend. When first meeting the dog/ animal I make sure to dedicate time to allow them to get comfortable with me and the fact that i’m in their home. I like ensuring a mutual feeling of safety and trust between the dog and I so we can have a fun and stress free time together!
About: I got my first dog in 1982. My first cat in 2021. I learned to walk, play with, feed and love my dog, Cara. Then in 1997 another came into my life and again I cared for her basic needs but next I learned to watch and listen to this one... and trained her in tricks and solid obedience. Next I started house sitting for sick old dog's who needed 24/7 attention. This was for Maureen Martin’s dog Higgins and her cat, Rio, in San Diego for 1999 - 2000. Later I found myself caring for so many people's dogs and cats, the last being in Westchester New York 2 weeks ago for Eliza, a black lab belonging to Mr and Mrs Brian S. Also at home I adopted Macy who has cancer as a kitten. She was treated and she is 3 years in remission now bc I played with her and brushed her and gently got her eating again through the chemo program. My reputation grew as a good cat babysitter and dog walker and caregiver. I am gentle, patient, firm and have strong communication with dogs and I speak the language of cats. I also am in very good athletic condition so I can offer your dog and cat a strong enough dose of energy and fun that your dog's anxiety about you not being there can subside. Your cats and dogs miss you when you leave them for work and important events. But I will fill in the gaps so they feel a warm friend is looking after them until you return home. I care for my own cat. Doing the litter daily and feeding her in the morning and evening with some in the middle of the day. She has cozy places to sleep and toys to play with to stay active. I interact with her and brush her to keep her in an overall healthy and good mental state. Playtime is a real winner with most pets. Those who are disabled or needing a different kind of care will get warmth and gentility from Me. If they need meds, I will do it in a caring way. If they need to be vigorous and enjoy companionship time in your absence, I am there to be their protector, buddy and server.
“Sara was an actual Vacation saver! I had a different sitter scheduled and he messed up the day and she was able to save me from having to come back early from vacation. My dogs love her, she is super communicative and helpful. I have two older dogs and they both awrmed to her right away. She has been super helpful and I'm so happy I found her on Rover!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fall River
Holly did a phenomenal job caring for our 2 cats while we were away. This was the first time we left the cats and Holly went above and beyond to make sure they adjust well to us being away. She made sure to spoil them with lots of pets and treats as well as playing with them! Holly exceeded our expectations for caring for the cats while we were away- she even took out our trash barrels on trash day for us. Hiring Holly was one of the best decisions and we highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again the next time we travel!
I can’t recommend Alex enough!! Upon first meeting him for our meet-and-greet with our two Great Danes, he was so professional and kind. Throughout the 8 days that Alex was caring for our dogs, he was incredibly thoughtful, thorough, and supportive. There were several extremely hot days where our house wouldn’t cool down and he thought of creative solution in order to keep the dogs more comfortable. He provided very detailed updates along with pictures during each visit, and it was very evident that the dogs were so happy with him (it’s fun to watch a Great Dane “hug” and cuddle a new friend☺️). Normally our dogs bark when visitors enter our house (even people they’ve known for years), but they were so comfortable and familiar with Alex by the end of the 8 days that they didn’t even bark at him anymore. It’s clear that they quickly fell in love with Alex. I appreciate how much he truly cared about the well-being of our dogs while we were away. I felt very at-ease while we were away because I knew they were in such great hands. When we got home from our vacation our dogs were so relaxed and content, which goes to show how well they were cared for while we were gone. I will definitely be contacting Alex again!!
Dan did an amazing job of taking care of our guinea pigs while we were away for 10 days. He came by and met our pigs and saw the house before we left. He was responsive, communicative and very responsible. The pigs and house were in great shape when we returned. Thanks so much, Dan!
Amanda was great! At our introduction meeting, she seemed very open to whatever we/Ren needed and her and Ren got along really well. She did all we asked when taking care of Ren and showed up when she said she would. I plan to book Amanda again when we need a fur-babysitter.
Hailey is the best sitter. We have had her on multiple occasions and she is very attentive to our senior dog. We were just away for the Christmas week and she took exceptional care of Dunkin. She is very trustworthy and thorough and pays attention to all the information that goes along with the care of our boy. She communicates well and keeps us informed of all that is going on. I would highly recommend her and definitely would hire her again for my pet services.
