“Keri was very responsive and made herself available around family obligations. She was timely, sweet and attentive ith my senior pups and my finicky Coco was even comfortable with her. Thank you Keri!”

About: I am CPR and animal care certified. I have also been a volunteer with many rescues over the past 10 years. In rescue, I specialize in socializing kittens and cats but have also taken on seniors with medical disabilities. I have trained puppies on basic commands. I have multiple years experience giving medications to dogs and cats. I am available for drop ins, walking, pack walks / hikes from 1pm to 10pm Monday through Friday and am available for all your pets needs on the weekends. Ideally I am available to walk your pup, let them out, feed them and take the on a nice hike if weather permits. Ideally for cats, I can feed them, clean the litter box, administer medication and socialize with them. However, I am open to boarding dogs as well if your dog is dog, cat and kid friendly. Please reach out to discuss. I have a fully fenced in yard if your dog is residing in my home. I will care for your pet as if they are my own and for me, my pets are my kids. I will provide safe, comforting, attentive care for your pet and respect your space when in your home. I will maintain a clean environment in your home and in mine. For basic walks or drop in visits, I will leave the home how I found it or better.
About: I have had pets my entire life. Dogs, cats, birds, fish, rabbits…I love animals of all kinds. My mom became paralyzed and I walked and took care of her 2 senior dogs for about 8 years until they passed. I gave them oral medication, cooked their food, walked and groomed them. Then she adopted a puppy and I took care of him as well as trained him. I currently have 2 french bulldogs of my own. One is a hyper little puppy and the other is a calmer 5 year old. I love caring for pets whether they are my own or someone else’s. I currently work part time in home care until 2pm 4 days a week. I am available most afternoons. My schedule changes if a client is in the hospital and does not need care those days which gives me the flexibility to pick up more last minute walks or check ins. I have children so I cannot work all weekend but i can be flexible and am open to them. I am open to walking your dogs in your neighborhood or wherever you prefer. I am also open to check ins and feeding dogs or cats. I will do my best to keep your routine with them if that is what you prefer. I would like to know a little bit about them beforehand and any preferences or habits they have.
“Heather is a wonderful sitter! I have an anxious dog, and I was nervous about allowing an unfamiliar person to care for her while I was on vacation. I purposely chose Heather due to her experience with anxious dogs, and I am so glad that I did! Heather scheduled a meet and greet prior to caring for her so my dog could become acclimated to her. Due to Heather's calming presence and careful efforts, Tootsie was very calm upon meeting Heather. While I was away, Heather provided thorough information about my dog, which was extremely reassuring. I felt confident that Tootsie was being cared for by someone who I trust. Heather went above and beyond to make Tootsie as comfortable as possible. I will definitely reach out to Heather again should I need someone to care for her.”

“Thank you for giving us peace of mind to enjoy our time away knowing the pups were in great hands. I appreciate the thorough information ant each visit and prompt timing and responses to messages.”

“Cheryl was easy to work with, and went above and beyond our expectations! She communicated with us contiguously throughout our vacation. We hopefully will be able to work with her again going forward :)”

“Taylor was wonderful with Teddy! He updated us and sent pictures. Teddy took to him immediately! Don’t hesitate to reach out to Taylor if you need someone to care for your pups!”
About: I’ve walked/sat for dogs since I was a kid. I’ve grown up with a dog and now have my own at the age of 25 I am in Norwood living with my partner and looking for work, I decided to put a profile together and take care of pets to earn some money in the mean time. They’re allowed all the free play space in the open living area. Lots of space to run around. We’re close to a field for fetch and walks and I am more than happy to drive to a fenced in dog park. I have a vehicle and can drive to your home as well to hang out in the pets home if need be. I trained my dog by myself she is very responsible. She is energetic but kind and cuddly. She knows how to sit, come, stay, play dead, sit pretty, give paw, and loves fetch
“Nicole was great and my cat loved her! She kept me up to date with lots of pictures and texts during her visits which was awesome. It made leaving my cat at home a little easier knowing Nicole was checking in on her and giving her lots of love.”

“Amazing! Will definitely be rebooking ? my cat fifi was looked after wonderfully. She played with her, fed her, scooped her litter. Sent me pictures of their playtime. Jennifer is the best!”


About: I have done many dog and cat sitting jobs since I was 12, for multiple people in my neighborhood. I am an animal behavior major and love working with animals! I also have two dogs and cats of my own who I love very much! I am currently home from college for the summer and have lots of free time! I am available any day of the week day or night! I am happy to care for your pets in any capacity you need! Your pets will get lots of love and exercise while I am there!

“Payton is honestly one of the best pet sitters I’ve ever came across. I am so happy and grateful that I found someone as trusting, kind, caring, and very loving towards my animals. I have one dog that is very anxious and scared of people, as well as other dogs. He warmed up to her right away and seemed so calm and happy when we golt home. Paton definitely is a gem she kept in contact with me sending me pictures and letting me know how the dogs were doing. She is so attentive, came on time and always kept me informed. She is lovely with animals and we are looking forward to her sitting for us in July. Thank you for treating my anxious dog with such care and love. I also appreciate her going out of her way and putting out packages inside when it was raining outside.”
About: I’ve spent my life surrounded by animals, from growing up training Golden Retrievers to the many years I spent with my Lhasa Apso, Cooper, and my two beloved cats. My home is a bit too quiet since they passed, and I’m eager to share that "family-first" devotion with your pets. I’m new to the app, but a veteran with animals! My Commitment to You: • Full-Time Attention: I work independently and am home the majority of the day. Your pet will be my primary focus and never left alone for more than an hour or two. • Versatile Experience: Whether it’s the high energy of a large breed or the specialized needs of a small senior, I’ve handled it all with patience and care. • The "Spoiled" Treatment: Since I’m just starting on Rover, I’m only taking limited guests. This means your pet gets 1-on-1 attention and a schedule tailored entirely to them. Services I Provide: • 🏡 Boarding: A cozy townhouse with carpeted stairs (great for traction!) in a very walkable community. Multiple daily strolls are a guarantee. • 🐾 Walks & Drop-ins: Punctual and reliable. I’m comfortable with all temperaments and am happy to follow your specific training or house rules. • 🐱 Cat Care: As a former cat mom, I specialize in visits that prioritize real companionship and play, not just a food-bowl refill. I can’t wait to meet your best friend and treat them like a member of my own family! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work independently and am home the majority of the day, stepping out for no more than an hour or two at a time. Your pet will never be left alone for long, and I treat every animal in my care as my own. My home is a townhouse with carpeted stairs and plenty of cozy space for pets to roam. Both cats and dogs are welcome throughout. I live in a very dog friendly community, so walks happen multiple times a day based on your pet’s needs and energy level. Your pet will be comfortable, well cared for, and never an afterthought.
About: Dogs have been one of the great loves of my life. I've been taking care of them, and doing life with them for years :) I currently work full time and will be a graduate nursing student in the fall, pet care fits into my routine as a side gig! I care for pets by treating them as if they are a loved member of my own family, caring for their individual needs always :)
