About: IMPORTANT: I am already being booked into Summer 2025 for other non-Rover clients; those spaces are marked as away on my Rover calendar as soon as their bookings are confirmed. Please be sure to book as early as possible so I can accommodate as many requests as I can. Thank you!! I have very flexible availability and just know that your dogs are in great hands! I’ve had dogs in the past and I’m so excited to be around them and love them again! if your dog loves to exercise, I’ll have no problem running with them. If a senior dog or puppy needs specific care, I’m willing to do whatever is necessary to provide tons of affection and specialized care. As owners, I know that everyone has a different routine and I want to give your dog the same level of love and care. I have very flexible availability for walks and sitting. I have no issues not only caring for your pets but doing small chores/errands while you are away. I am super excited to meet you and your babies! I have an remote, asynchronous and flexible job. Meetings are infrequent and are typically no longer than 1-1.5 hrs. I can guarantee I can accommodate your pet’s entire routine schedule from walks, playtime, feeding, etc. Please feel free to ask any questions about this when we do our meet and greet—I am more than happy to provide additional details about how I make everything work! My priority is your pets comfort & care. I will be sure to uphold any routine and maintain safety in and outside your home. Be sure to mention any specifics when booking with me.
“One of the best! Updated me the whole time my doggie was on a walk and came with last minute notice. Will definitely be booking more walks!! Muffin was satisfied 😇”
“Laura was super professional and very accommodating for my last minute dog walking request. She gave us pictures and we got to see the timings of the walk and where they went. Will definitely book with Laura again!”
“Amanda was so great with our dog, Emmie. She communicated from the minute she arrived, took pictures while on the walk and made sure our dog was safe and happy. We will definitely be booking with Amanda again!”
“I could not recommend Jillian enough! We have an elderly dog who requires extra attention, and Jillian provides exemplary care. If you have any reservations about leaving your pets with someone, rest assured that they will be well cared for under her supervision. I wouldn’t trust Roscoe with anyone else!”
“Lindsay was amazing with our little rescue dog. She understands how to work with dogs that have experienced trauma with patience and understanding. She spent extra time with our fur baby to help with his anxiety. We would highly recommend her to any pet owner.”
“Elysse was excellent with our dog, Maple and she took really good care of her on a really hot day. Many thanks to her! And if you are looking for someone who is both knowledgeable and caring look no further!”
“Marissa was great to work with. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker. She followed all directions and I felt very comfortable with leaving my puppy with her.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for my co-workers and friends for the past several years while they traveled out of town for an extended amount of time. I make sure to check-in every day, feed them, and make sure they get enough attention. I am raising money for marathons I have signed up for over the next year. I’m preparing to run the Marine Corps Marathon and aim to run the Boston Marathon. I usually work evenings from 3-11pm Wednesdays through Sundays and I will have time to take care of your pet in the mornings before I get ready for work. When I am in charge of your pet, I make sure sure they have the food the need to remain healthy, give them a walk when they need it, and provide them with enough attention.
About: I have owned and been around dogs and cats my whole life. I started out working with small animals when I volunteered at the Connecticut Audubon Society when I was a child and teenager. I also worked at PetSmart in the their Pet Hotel doing doggy daycare. While there, I walked, fed, cleaned up after, and watched over groups of dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have also volunteered with Protectors of Animals at their cat shelter for about 2 years now. I have worked with cats of all ages and temperaments. My schedule is very open at the moment. I am able to check up on animals multiple times throughout a weekday and am also available on weekends. I am available to take care of pets in your home, whether you just need me to feed them and let them out a few times a day, or if your pet needs someone to stay with them for longer periods of time. I have reliable transportation in case of emergency. I am comfortable giving pills, but I am not trained on giving injections.
About: After many years of asking, I finally received the opportunity to raise my puppy, Shadow and take care of him until his last years. I’m an all around animal lover, and that experience helped enlighten me to the amazing connection between people and their pets! I’ve also worked for a pet supply company where I spent 3 years there, with one of them being a pet care associate. There I was trained on taking care of a wide variety of animals such as kittens / cats, reptiles, aquatics, and small animals like guinea pigs and chinchillas. I’d feed these animals daily, clean up their habitats, and provide them with their medication whenever necessary. I’m a recent graduate and just received my Bachelors degree, but I’m looking to do a bit more work doing something I truly enjoy 😊 I’m currently working Monday- Friday 7-4, but will soon be available Fridays. I’m free weekends, early mornings before I head into work, and later evenings. As long as enough information and resources are provided, I’m completely open to caring for pets with medical conditions, specific dietary guidelines, and other animals besides dogs and cats. Puppies, kittens, small animals, large animals, and elderly animals are all welcomed. When bringing pets outside for their walks or to dog parks I do bring my doggy bags, a small first aid kit, as well as a small air horn specifically meant for stopping animal attacks. Potty time can be limited to specific nearby areas if necessary, or simply walks and can be done every 2 hours. Please make note of any physical limitations to ensure safety during play time 😊

About: I grew up in a household with many pets of all kinds, I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter, worked in a pet store, and even worked with some exotic animals too. I’m comfortable around animals and I work hard to insure they feel safe and active with me. I am able to read a pet’s body language and communicate well both verbally and nonverbally. Every animal is different and has their own unique personality, and it’s a joy and reward to get to know each one. I have a flexible schedule and have experience long term housesitting (up to a month at a time). I work for myself so I can be really flexible with availability. I am happy to be able to tailor my care to your pet and their usual routines. I follow all instructions given to me on pet/home care. I treat the animals and home as if they were my own. I am a neat & tidy person, generally a homebody in the evenings, and I am a respectful sitter of both my clients and their lovely pets.
About: I’ve always loved animals my whole life! I grew up dog/cat sitting for my neighbors, feeding, walking, bathing, etc.. When I moved out of my parents house 3 years ago I began working with a local animal shelter Fostering dogs; youngest ones being 10 weeks, I have also fostered older ones as well! I currently work part time at night a few days a week! I have lots of free time to play and walk your pup(s). I have almost full open availability all weekdays and weekends! I currently don’t have any fur babies of my own where I’m living but my complex has space to walk and play! There are lots of other friendly dogs that live in the complex if you are comfortable with them meeting and saying Hi! I am very respectful of any rules/timelines you may have and can 100% guarantee they will be followed!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since childhood and have a dog of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you trust. I’m responsible, patient, and treat every pet like family. Whether it’s a high-energy pup that needs lots of exercise or a senior pet that requires extra care, I make sure each one feels safe and is taken care of. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so they always know their pet is in good hands. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be available for pet care at various times throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I prioritize each pet’s comfort and routine, whether in my home or a client’s. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention while sticking to their usual feeding and bathroom schedules. For pets in my care, I create a stress-free environment, providing walks and mental stimulation based on their needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and ensure their pet feels secure by maintaining their regular routine.
