About: Soaking up all the kitty loving I can after a lifetime of not being allowed to have pets at home. I will care for your fur babies as my own and give them all the loving while you're away. I am currently a stay at home mom looking for things to do outside of the home while the kids are at school. I will love on your fur babies any time you need! We have one cat in our home that is friendly and curious about new furry friends and people too! She is out going and will take loving from anyone.

About: I've owned and cared for animals since high school. In addition to dogs and cats, I've owned horses since I was 16. I have been\am a foster parent for the Animal Rescue League of Boston since 2020. I'm a former puppy foster for service dogs and participated with early puppy training. I have carried those skills over to training other foster puppies and my personal dog. I have a medical background (EMT) and my daughter is a Vet Tech so I am very comfortable working with animals with medical needs and will follow any required medical plan. In addition to dogs and cats, I'd love to meet\care for your backyard farm animals; horses, pot-bellied pigs, chickens, goats, sheep, etc. I have experience with some of these animals through ownership and fostering opportunities. I'm open to meeting and learning about new friends. We currently have 4 dogs, 4 cats, and 2 horses in our home. All our animals are our babies and I'll care for yours as if they were my own. I'm currently unemployed so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I'm available for petsitting any day of the week and can work around any personal appointments. Boarding in my home is restricted to cats or other small animals. Puppies (under 1 year) may be accomodated, no adult dogs. For cats; we have a dedicated "cat room" to keep your pet separated from our pets. The room has a screen door so they don't feel locked away and can be part of our household while remaining safe. I will follow your pet care plan while in your home. For Puppies; all dogs are fed separately to avoid food aggression situations. All puppies will be crated for meals and sleeping overnight. If your puppy is not crate trained, I will work with them to ensure they are comfortable and not afraid. I can support your potty training schedule to maintain consistency.

About: I have owned a cat and a dog. I watch or check in on my friends' and family's pets when they are away from vacation. I WFH fairly regularly so check-ins are really easy. House sitting is doable, but would need to coordinate times as i have some activities with my kid. Animals are all about routine and I don't like to rock the boat. However you take care of your pets is how i want to provide for them.

Bonnie did a great job introducing our new puppy to the neighborhood. She fed, watered, and walked him each day, right on time. I love the pics! They helped put this new fur mama's mind at ease. We look forward to the next vacation week to hire Bonnie again.

About: I have been taking care of pets for friends and family for the last 5 years and it’s always been a welcome opportunity as I was never allowed to have pets growing up. I love nature so long dog walks are never boring. I also have experience petsitting so I’ll make sure your pet is never lonely. I am able to stay with your pet all day and on weekends as well. The longest I would be out is 4 hours, but that would be very intermittent. I’m respectful of clients’ homes and I want the pet to be as comfortable as possible. If the pet makes a mess I will be sure to clean it as soon as possible and the return the place to how it looked before if not cleaner.

About: We are a trio (Riven, Matt, Jason) that have mostly work from home schedules. We have individual Rover verified profiles, and this one is Rivens. I have lived with cats, dogs, and animals of all sorts my whole life. After growing up on a farm and being a founding member of the local 4H Club, my love for animals continued to fostering through rescues, volunteering, and my own pets such as my now passed 17 year cat named Moya, whom I had had since she was a few months old. We around a lot of dogs over the course of the week, so we are unable to on any dogs that will not do well with others for more than an over night. If you have feline family, I am happy to play with crinkle balls, laser pointers, or be a lap as needed. For boarding, my Matt and Jason (also on Rover) and myself are home 95% of the day and can usually accommodate most pick up or drop off time, frequent potty breaks, and walks. For drop in visits we are avaliable to work in the Shirely and immediately surounding area. We have some flexibility with the schedule that we can work out if you're interested! We offer lots of human and other dog socialization in our home. We have people and dogs visitors in home as well as on walks to parks and rivers.

About: I've had numerous variety of pets my whole life, Worked in pet retail for a time, and genuinely feel I understand animals more than people sometimes. Currently I'm between more traditional 9-5 employment, so I have the time and space to give the care needed for the little (or big) ones. I am open to discussing the individual needs of every client, but the basics of walking, feeding, just plain old attention are well within my capacity. Happy to help facilitate any training that is being done as well.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for many years and understand that every animal has unique needs and personalities. I currently have a 12-year-old Japanese Akita, a 13-year-old German Shepherd, and a young Highlander cat, giving me hands-on experience with both senior pets and energetic younger animals. Caring for my senior dogs has taught me the importance of patience, recognizing health concerns, maintaining routines, administering basic care, and adjusting exercise levels based on age and mobility. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds, including large dogs, and I understand the importance of safe handling, positive interactions, and consistent care. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, medication reminders, or companionship while you’re away, I will treat them as if they were my own. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and communicative, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos during every visit so you can have complete peace of mind. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a part of my daily routine. I care for my 12-year-old Japanese Akita, senior German Shepherd, and young Highlander cat every day, including feeding, walks, exercise, grooming, playtime, and monitoring their health and well-being. Caring for pets has taught me the importance of consistency, patience, and attention to detail. Because pet care is already a regular part of my life, I can easily incorporate walks, drop-in visits, and other pet care services into my weekly schedule while providing reliable and attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strive to maintain their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care needs. I make sure pets have fresh water, receive plenty of attention and exercise, and are kept safe at all times. I also respect my clients’ homes by keeping everything clean and secure. Communication is important to me, so I provide updates and photos during visits to give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life since the day I was born! I grew up with a mini poodle named Whoopi (named after my fav actor, Whoopi Goldberg, of course!) and an adorably feisty orange cat named Rainbow. I’m currently working part-time and have a flexible schedule, so I can meet all pet care needs. My house has a partially fenced backyard and lots of beautiful local trails for taking long walks. I’m an endurance athlete so you can count on me to go the distance to take good care of your fur child(ren). I have space to crate dogs in my home, if needed, and they are welcome on my couch. My kids are 13 and 8 and my 3 year old cat Taco is friendly. I look forward to meeting your fur baby (and you) soon! My communication style is clear and straightforward. You can count on me to diligently care for your fur baby! When you get them back, you’ll be thrilled about how well-cared for and happy they are.
