In a last minute pinch, while attending a funeral, I used Rover for the first time. Caroline was quick to respond, so warm and generous, and took great care of Luna! I received so many photos and she took her for two walks when all I asked for was one. Thank you, Caroline!!

Danielle was amazing with my cat while I was on my 10-day trip. My cat loved her, and I could tell her was upset when it was me and not her when I walked in the door!! She even brought over special treats for him. She left my apartment clean and well taken care for as well which I really appreciated. I am so happy to know I have Danielle for my next trip- I know my cat is looking forward to seeing her again!

About: I’m a recent college graduate with a huge love of dogs! I’ve owned several dogs my whole life, many types (Lab, Pitbull, Australian Cattle Dog). My family and I have fostered over 5 different dogs in the last couple of years. My sister is a professional dog trainer and I’ve watched her work for many years! My mom has been pet sitting for Rover for years so I’ve gotten very used to working with all sorts of dogs on a weekly basis. I love caring for animals, especially taking them on walks and giving them baths :) Since I just graduated, I’m looking to do something fun to fill up my time! I’m free whenever and I can go where ever :) I’m super attentive when it comes to dogs needs. At home, I try to walk my dogs at least once a day and I’m always picking up on cues when they need to go outside.

About: I am always on top of my work and keep everything organized from schedules to lists. I worked at a pet grooming, boarding, and daycare center where I picked up knowledge on pet's needs. I've cared for family's pets and of course, my own dog is spoiled with love and care. I've worked for a senior dog sanctuary so I am experienced with administering medicine in a timely manner and understanding their behaviors. My dog is a senior herself, so any medications or vitamins the vet has given or recommended, I am on top of it. I graduated from college in May of 2025 and started working full-time right away. I am currently taking a break from working full-time so your pets can have my full attention and care when under my supervision. I am willing to move my schedule around for a more convenient experience. My care for client's pets would depend on the instruction they give me, as every pet's care varies. My dog at home is taken on a walk most mornings, but because of the weather lately she spends more time in our backyard. She also uses the bathroom in the yard, so she gets a lot of outside time. She eats at her usual time around 7:30am and 6pm and is given lots of love, cuddles, and playtime.

About: Own a Shepherd-Chow mix and a short hair cat. I also routinely babysit for a family friend's golden retriever and house sit while they are away on vacations. I house sit for a friend with 3 cats on occasion. I also have experience giving shots to animals with medical issues if necessary. I work part time during the summer and am looking to supplement my teaching career. Would love to meet you and your animal(s) if you’d like before I take care of your fur babies! Over the summer I work part time and have plenty of time for walks and/or drop ins. Schedule changes weekly but not by much definitely able to accommodate your needs. During most weekdays I am a teacher so I will be out of the house 7-3:30 (unless there is a vacation or holiday) I shower all my pets with love at every chance I get. I am all about the belly rubs and my animals know it and love it!

About: Hi! I’m Kim — a lifelong dog lover, wellness-minded caregiver, and proud dog mom to my puppy, Saint 🐾 Caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve grown up around dogs, adopted through the North Shore Animal League America, and have experience pet sitting for friends, family, and local clients. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone who is patient, attentive, and genuinely loving. My approach is calm, nurturing, and intuitive. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a peaceful presence, I adapt to their personality and needs to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. You can expect: • Reliable communication & frequent photo updates • Gentle, attentive care • A clean, calm, stress-free environment • Plenty of affection, patience, and playtime • Someone who treats your dog like family As a wellness practitioner, I naturally bring a grounded, calming energy into the care I provide — and animals tend to respond really well to that. I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I’m committed to making both you and your dog feel completely at ease 🤍 I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, cuddles, and consistent care throughout the day. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making your pet feel safe and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel relaxed and secure. I have a small fenced-in yard and live within walking distance of a dog park, as well as many beautiful local spots perfect for walks and outdoor time. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, walks, and each pet’s unique personality and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos/ videos so you can feel at ease knowing your furry family member is in caring hands.

About: Recently graduated from medical school and looking to make some new furry friends before starting residency!

I am currently off before starting residency in mid-June so can be flexible with your schedule as needed. Available mornings, afternoons, or nights, as well as weekends. I live in an apartment building with a nice long walking path by the water as well as many open grassy fields for your pup to play in!

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats- near and far- for a while now. I have experience with all kinds of dogs and cats- breeds and size combined. I am available for dog walking/sitting any time before 9 AM and after 5 PM on weekdays and any time on weekends! Just let me know a little in advanced and I will do my best to accommodate you. I have a fenced in backyard, as well as a pen for my puppy to keep him safe and happy. He enjoys running around outside in the backyard and I know he will be safe because it is fenced in.

About: I've taken care of my family's dogs since young, One Samoyed, one Husky, and one Chihuahua. I was always the one spotting heath concerns and training them because if I didn't, no one would! Firm believer in positive reinforcement techniques and keeping all animals enriched.I also have a lot of experience with pet birds. I love surrounding myself with and working around animals. They are very therapeutic to me so I make sure my day revolves around their care! Always more than willing to spend an entire day with an animal to make sure they're tended to. I make sure my dogs are able to go the bathrooms frequently as they need, and look for behavior cues in order to understand what they want. I also make sure that if two animals don't get along, they are separated and given ample distractions. I also make sure to give food at a certain time and get animals into a routine so that they aren't constantly eating and gain wait. Exercise and enrichment is also big to me.

About: Our pets change our lives for the better and I want to make sure they’re well taken care of too. By making connections via talking, playing, training, and grooming I pride myself in providing full care for my furry friends. I make training fun and learn their individual strengths! Pet care is an essential part in my daily routine. Each day begins by walking my pup, refreshing her water and food bowls. At the end of the day, I’m cleaning and prepping to start out routine over, putting toys away and doing our last walk of the night. I love taking my pups out downtown or to the dog park. If it’s dog-friendly, why aren’t we bringing the beans?! Everyone is always happy, fed, hydrated, and well played with. Pet hygiene and environmental cleanliness go hand in hand. I like to make sure I’m keeping my home clean for my pets. After all they play, lounge, and sleep in our home. The least we can do is make sure the space is free of dangerous objects or potential choking hazards. We also use pet gates in our home to ensure pet safety when cooking/cleaning/moving furniture.

About: I am a lifelong pet owner and animal lover with years of experience as pet sitter and dog walker. I prioritize putting pets and their people at ease with reliable, conscientious care. I love taking photos of your pet and will send you pictures and updates as often as you need, and please feel free to get in touch any time your beloved dog is with me as I know it’s difficult to leave them behind!

Your pet will have free range in my house which is dog friendly. I can provide a dog bed, blankets and towels etc. I have a fully fenced backyard that provides a safe and spacious environment for outdoor play. If your pet requires medication I am happy to give as necessary.

I can’t say enough good things about Jahrian! He took such amazing care of our dog while we were away. From the regular updates and photos to the genuine love and attention he gave, it was clear our pup was in great hands. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog—which says it all. Reliable, communicative, and clearly an animal lover. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

My husband and I left our three cats for five days. Carina did a famous job of taking care of them! They made sure that our babies had food, water, excise, and clean litter boxes while we were away. Every time Carina came over they took the cutest pictures of our cats, too! They were very communicative with us the whole time we were traveling. They told us when they came and would provide a written update every time they visited! When we came back from our trip our cats were calm and happy. When we go away in the future, we will be booking with Carina again! They were flexible, kind, friendly, and attentive to our cats needs. All and all it was a great experience and we felt confident in leaving our cats in Carina hands.

About: I am a (pet) mom to our large cat, Baxter and larger lab mix, Jack! Jack is full of energy and love which allows me to tackle any mood your pup may be in! Baxter loves being the center of attention and he certainly gets all the love and play time that allows. I am more than happy to get to know your pets and care for them as if they were my own! I am currently a contract working allowing me to have flexibility in my schedule. I usually have availability before 9am, a couple hours for lunch and after 7pm! I have experience with dog crates, harnesses, different collars and gates if those are options for your pup. I have dealt with soft and hard food as well as different supplements.

Emily was wonderful with our pets! Our dog can take some time to warm up to new people, and Emily was so patient and persistent with her — by the end, you could tell she absolutely loved her. She kept us updated throughout the whole stay with photos and messages, which gave us total peace of mind. It was clear from the pictures that both our pets were happy, comfortable, and having a great time playing with her. We'll definitely be booking Emily again!

Kaylee watched our 2 large shepherds and she was fantastic. Our dogs are very hyper dogs and both anxious in their own ways so we never feel the best leaving them with new people but Kaylee took lots of photos, our dogs were super happy and we felt so confident leaving them in her care. We will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a loving sitter for your fur babies!

Talia is warm, attentive, timely, and a big animal lover. Our stubborn, and often aloof, shiba warmed right up to her, which is a major win in our books. And our very shy cat immediately came out of his cave to let her give him pets. You’re in very good hands with Talia’s care!
