She really sweet and definitely updated you with pictures to make sure your fur baby is safe so you can relax without the anxiety.”


About: I’ve had dogs for 30+ years and now I’m retired with no dogs so have room for yours. I am gentle and playful as well as responsible and active. I do not take cats, sorry. I watch our daughter’s dog on occasion but would not watch him at the same time. I had a lovely chihuahua for 16 years, and a husky, as well as a fluffy white mixed pup, all healthy and happy and had their senior years with us as well. I’m retired and home all day doing eBay and other hobbies. I also take daily walks and would take your dog out often as well. I have a large fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. I am also home a lot and allow the small dogs to jump up in my lap and furniture.

“I've already re-booked! The entire process with Shannon was seamless, from the meet and greet which we did in advance to Spencer's first overnight! HIGHLY recommend. When we did the meet and greet, Shannon spent about and hour with Spencer and I, giving us the opportunity to see how he interacted with her daycare dogs as well as with her personal dogs. She has a huge, fenced in yard, which is very well gated off and contained. She took the time to get him used to her outdoor area, as well as her home. I was very comfortable knowing he would be safe, and well cared for. During his overnight stay, she texted me several times, with photos and let me know he was doing well. Spencer came home from his visit tired from playing with doggie friends, and well cared for. I have already booked future visits and I highly recommend!”


“Erica & Thomas (& their kids!) took such exceptional care of our puppy, Hudson. He came home healthy & happy! We were nervous to leave him for the first time, but we received daily updates on him and knew he was having so much fun. We are so relieved to have found such a loving family to spend time with him, and can’t thank them enough for helping us out. Would recommend them to anyone looking for awesome pet sitters!”


“Madison was great.communicative and upbeat and felt very comfortable leaving our mini golden doodle there for two days. We liked that her dog Jack was there and her and her husband are very conscientious and responsible. Lead in the backyard for Henry to play with jack but not feel restricted and flexible on pick up time. Very satisfied!”


“If I could give 5,000 stars I would… Elizabeth and her family are absolutely wonderful! I have never used Rover or left my fur babies with a stranger before and needless to say, I was a MESS! We had a family trip in Ohio we couldn’t miss and Elizabeth watched our new/rescue 11 month old American Bully Huey! Elizabeth was wonderful from the time we met and even when I dropped him off crying my eyes out with anxiety! She sent photo updates constantly, they treated him as if he was their own, giving him all the love and attention!! He got to play with their two pups, kids, and enjoy there wonderful fenced in backyard! They walked him and even spoiled him with a car ride to get a pup cup! Huey pretty much was on his own fun filled vacation! Elizabeth even went as far as to drop him off at our house and safely crate him the night we flew in, so he could be home when we got home. This was wonderful! She even offered to take our other dog out for a potty break when she came over to drop Huey off. She is absolutely wonderful, I have nothing but the most amazing things about her and her family! I truly can not thank you enough!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! Hopefully we will be seeing you soon and Huey can visit!”


“Thank you Tina for taking such great care of our dog Zoe. She is skeptical of most new people but took to you and your family quickly. We enjoyed our time away knowing that Zoe was so happy and cozy with you!”


“Everything was done as requested. They sent pictures and texts. My dog was returned to me in good health and happy. I would call on Izabel and Zach again when I need someone.”


About: I've had dogs my entire life, and love them all. From Yorkies to Great Danes, and everything in between, I've cared for pets for friends and family. I currently work a mix of mornings and afternoons at a local boarding facility. I'm available for daycare on my days off, and available for boarding any day. Your pets will be kept safe and sound at my home while I'm working. Based on your preference, they will either be crated, left loose in a spare room, or placed in a boarding style private kennel while I'm away. I have a fenced yard, with four pups of my own and rotating fosters. My house is set up to allow plenty of room for everyone without requiring the groups to mingle. For pups who aren't fans of other dogs I am able to maintain complete separation if needed. My own dogs are crate trained, and I always have a spare crate if that's what yours is comfortable with, but it isn't required.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since age 10. I am experienced caring for breeds of all sizes, and am familiar with anxiety/aggression handling, and positive-reinforcement & clicker training. I can also provide specialized care for puppies and seniors. Your pet's well-being and your comfort is my top priority. As a full-time remote worker, I'm immersed in a flexible routine, ensuring your pet's needs seamlessly integrate into my day. With scheduling autonomy, I prioritize their well-being around my work, providing the attention and care they deserve. Your furry friend will thrive in a structured yet adaptable environment tailored to their unique needs. In my home or yours, pet care is personalized to suit their needs. Whether it's providing a cozy and familiar environment for them at my place or maintaining their routine in the comfort of their home, I ensure a tailored approach. Each service I offer is designed to create a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for your cherished pet.

About: I take care of pets since I was little and I love animals. My dream as kid was being a vet ❤️ I will like to adopt all the pets in the street I work as part time in the beauty industry and on my day off I go to the park with my daughter. It would be so nice to add a pet ❤️ I have a little yard behind my house and also a park in front. My daughter is 5 years old and she love pets too.

“Elizabeth was wonderful with Scarlett she took care of her as if Scarlett was a family pet , i couldn’t be happier that I found her I will definitely call Elizabeth again . Thank you Liz”

Groton dog parents share their Rover experiences
Our pup Finn loves spending time with Terry! She goes above and beyond with providing loving care and making sure he is comfortable when she's with him at our home or at hers. Hes had anxiety when we've left him in the past but never does when he is with Terry. She sends lots of pictures and updates and we can be away without worrying about him at all.

Anthony really helped us out when our first sitter canceled on us. He kept us updated with pictures and some messages that really helped with any anxiety of how our dog was doing. Bear seemed to really enjoy his stay and I would have Anthony watch our dog again!
