“Breanna was excellent! Very compassionate caring for our senior dog Maya! She put our mind at ease on very short notice to attend our daughters wedding that was out of town. Can't thank her enough!”

“Grace was absolutely amazing with my two bully breed dogs! You can tell she really cares about animals and their wellbeing. She provided many updates and photos all throughout our trip. We will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone we know!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 9. I’ve owned aggressive / reactive dogs, dogs who need a lot of management, sport dogs, working dogs, and other animals with special needs. My personal dogs are elderly now and need more special care and I conduct all of it. I currently work a part time job Monday-Thursday from 9-3. My weekends are generally free as well! Overall my schedule is incredibly flexible. I have a well fenced in yard and basement entirely dedicated to dogs! You can look us up at Angie’s pet care (Middleboro Mass). But our boarding dogs are allowed to be on the other floors with us (only when supervised) but someone is home majority of the day.

“Olivia was great and accommodated a very last minute request while still stopping by ahead of the weekend to meet me, Gus and Hazel. She stayed at the house with my dogs Gus and Hazel and did a great job handling them and communicating with me the entire weekend. I would recommend Olivia and would ask her to stay with Gus and Hazel again.”

“Our first time hiring outside of family membets so we were extremly netvous. The rover site was a nice easy platform and process as well. We chose Janice and we knew immediately at the meet and greet we chose the right person for us and Louie our 2yo Cavapoo. She had us feeling at ease and comfortable thruout the visit that we had no issues to worry about. She provided a pic and feedback to us while away. She was very professional,friendly, kind and knowledgable. Through our comunications with her i knew she loved and nutured all animals and safety was of utmost importance. She is a very loving and conscientious knowledgable caretaker and would not hesitate to hire her again! The very best and Louie and our family are very fortunate to have found her, we thank you Rover!!”

About: I have never lived in a household without pets before, so taking care of cats and dogs (and fish) is something I’ve done my whole life. I’ve owned four black labs and multiple cats over the years. I especially love big dogs, but am a big fan of all animals! I am currently in law school so my availability is limited, but I am still looking for work! I am available for weekend sitting and dog walking in afternoons and early morning. I love to keep my pets active and enriched, whether that means going on a walk, playing fetch in the yard, or going to the beach for a swim!

“Nicole and Steve did an amazing job looking after our Zona! We were away for a weekend and wanted someone who can stay at our place, since our dog is a senior with poor vision. Zona felt really comfortable with them. Nicole updated us daily with pictures. Her experience with animals made us feel at ease and we knew Zona is in good hands. We came back home to a happy dog and a clean house. Nicole and Steve are great and we will definitely use their help in the future!”

“Linda is a jewel! Even though she wasn’t feeling well she stayed with Sophie and took such good care of her! I didn’t have to worry at all that Sophie was having any anxiety! Linda is such a blessing!”

“Avery was great watching our dog Luna at our home! She arrived punctually and kept our puppy happy and healthy! The house was perfectly clean when we arrived back from our trip and Luna was very happy! Could not recommend more highly!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of multiple sizes and breeds from the age of 8. I have always been a natural dog lover! Although newer to cats, my experience in the field of ABA has made me patient, dependable, and attentive to behavior and routines. I follow instructions carefully and provide calm, compassionate, and individualized care, no matter the population or demographic I am working with! I am currently in my masters program for applied behavior analysis, gaining my fieldwork for ABA. I have flexible hours and often have availability periodically throughout the day! If communicated prior, I am easily able to accommodate most schedules. I communicate with the owner to ensure I understand each pet’s routine, providing feeding, walks, play, or medication all as directed, as each pet has their own individual needs! My priory is to maintain attention while keeping the clients home clean and secure.

About: My name is Crystal. I have a flexible schedule and love animals so I joined Rover to offer my services and I have met some wonderful pets and pet owners along the way. If you are looking for a trustworthy and dependable person to care for your pet when you can not then look no further. I have two furry family members myself and know how stressful it can be to find someone you can trust to care for them in your absence. I’d love to be that person for you. I can run, walk or just help by dropping in for potty breaks. Let me know how I can be of service to you and your pet. I will service Bridgewater and surroundings towns within a 7-10 mile radius. Thanks for looking at my profile. Message me with any questions. I have a flexible schedule so I can help out morning, afternoon, evening on weekdays or weekends. I try to reply to requests as quickly as I see them and I am honest with my availability and schedule. I’ll schedule a meet and greet before coming to care for your pet in your home. I’ll follow your instructions when caring for your pet so your pet will feel comfortable.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since a very young age I love all different kinds of dogs and cats. I have a nice set up in my home and I have a fenced in yard so it feels a lot safer and private :) I have a quiet neighborhood and lots of places to walk ! I always provide lots of photos and constant communication with pet owners. I also helped my mom board dogs growing up so I also have experience in that as well. I’m currently in school and have mostly online classes so I’m pretty flexible. I also have a car that I can transport if need be. I love walking them and letting them play outside in the fenced yard! I have a dog proofed home:) I’m open to all requests, more communication the better !

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 15 years old. I love walking dog and spending time with them I have no problems with taking care of the house as well when people are gone as well, including cleaning up, vacuuming, dishes, ensuring mail is collected and taking care of plants. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs. When I get up in the morning, I prefer to take the doggos out first thing for a quick walk around to let them go to the bathroom. We then head back to have breakfast together. Throughout the day, I will keep an eye on them to see if they need to go out. If they are a puppy, we will go out every 2 hours quickly. Otherwise, I tend to wait until around 4 hours to do another walk around, usually as a longer walk or if weather is bad, give us a chance to play at home for a while after lunch. I work remotely so I’ll still be able to work while looking after your pupper and will be keeping a close eye on them throughout the day. We’ll do another walk/play time around 3-4 before I start working on dinner and ensure we both get fed. At around 7 or.8, I’ll have us do one last walk around to take care of business before bedtime for adult dogs. Please keep in mind I’m aware that for puppies and senior dogs that schedules may need to adjust and we can have those conversations depending on need. I am not able to take pets into my own home at this time due to restrictions on my lease. So I will be relying on the equipment that you have in your home to care for your dog. I want to make sure I am using the food that your dog eats and the treats that are your safety standards. I will keep your dog on leash while on walks at all times, and be sure to follow whatever rules you have for your animal.

“Nicole was a wonderful house sitter. We have two GSPs and they loved her. She exercised them enough to keep them happy and noted when they needed a rest (because they won’t stop). She provided lots of love and cuddles (which they also need 🥰) and sent us many pics showing them happy and relaxed. Additionally, she left the house spotless - I couldn’t have asked for a better feeling walking in the door. Highly recommend her and will definitely get on her future schedule!”

About: Hi, my name is Karen. I've had all sorts of of animals my whole life. I'm well known for bringing home surprise pets. My children have both moved out so I'm free to come to your home for overnights, check-in visits, walks, feedings, etc. Whatever you need, I'm here to help with. I'll be your best friends 2nd best friend! I am currently free to work any time of day. I'm available for Day visits, overnights, check ins, etc. Weekdays or weekends, I can help! I'm unable at the moment to board but I am able to come to clients homes. I believe in helping your pets to be as stress free as possible in your absence. I strive to be 2nd best to you.

About: I have been in the caring business since my teenage years - babysitting my younger siblings, caring for my family dog, running a summer enrichment program for at risk youth, caring for horses at a dude ranch and a western suburbs farm, minding many friends' dogs, and wrangling my own two senior dogs - brother and sister, now 14 years old. (But, so rambunctious for their first 10+ years). I love dogs and will care for your dog just as you would. One of my dogs is now blind and the other requires daily subcutaneous fluids so I am willing and able to help out with any of your pet's special needs as well..... I know how stressful it can be to ensure a routine is kept. Pet first aid and CPR certified. I am currently on a full time job hunt in marketing analytics and very available (with notice) to care for your dogs most days and evenings as I can search and do freelance work remotely. Depending on your dog's needs I can usually provide bathroom breaks every 4 hours in between errands, etc. My calendar will be updated to show days I plan to be away. At this time, I can care for pets in my client's home. I do need to bring my dogs for the overnight portion of the stay but will keep them separate in a room/space of your choosing during the evening (and on bedroom floor at night). They are very dog friendly just very sleepy and do well snoozing someplace quiet.

About: We are a family of five dog lovers who will love your dog all day. We have three teenagers (15-18) and Mom and Dad so someone is always home to love your pup. We know leaving your dog is a big decision, and we’ll treat your pup like one of our own! My husband, our adult child, and I are all dog lovers, so your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles. Bonus…2 fifteen year olds to live and care for your pup! We have a secure fenced yard for safe outdoor fun, and we only care for one family’s pet(s) at a time, so your dog will enjoy a calm, personalized experience. We’ll happily follow your dog’s routine and send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in loving hands. We love walking our dogs and loving them inside our home and backyard. . We have a great yard for them to play and bonus; they can play with my corgi who is so playful and loves all dogs.

About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’ve not lived a single day without having one or two dogs in my home. I have such a special place in my heart for dogs and no matter what kind how big, how mean, or nice it is I will make sure it is cared for and loved as much as it can be. I work part time at a nursing home in Medway, but my hours are not extremely long, and I have the flexibility to leave when needed to care for pets if they are located nearby. During the school year, I am a student at Bridgewater State University, so I will primarily be looking for pet care services in that area. My classes end no later than noon each day, which gives me plenty of availability in the afternoons and evenings, as well as in the mornings when needed before class. When caring for pets in my home, I treat them like family. I love spending time with them, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention to make sure they feel loved and not ignored. My dogs at home and I spend a lot of time on walks and hikes. I also have a fenced in backyard where they can safely run and play. I am very comfortable handling larger dogs on leash and can manage any that may pull. When I care for a pet at a client's home, I make sure they have everything they need while I am there, like fresh food and water. I also make sure they get lots of playtime and attention, and toys to keep them entertained. I will ALWAYS follow every pet's individual routine and make sure they are comfortable, safe, and cared for at all times.
