“Mary is excellent. She is super trustworthy, flexible and efficient. She sent us pictures about how our pup was doing, sent updates and gave great advice!”


About: Loved and cared for our family dog growing up, and have assisted with other forms of pet care throughout my time in Minnesota (overnight care, walking, playing, etc.) As a Minnesota transplant and a doctoral student at Springfield College, I will have availability to stay with your dog while you are away on vacation or out of town. I’m looking forward to meeting you and discovering the beauty this part of the country has to offer! I treat any animal like I treat people I interact with - with respect, love and care for their well being. I ensure they are tended to from a holistic standpoint, so their physical well being is as much of a priority as their nutrition and time for play.

“Santiago was amazing with our corgi! He was always very prompt, send delightful pictures and her little pup seemed to love him. We will definitely be booking him again”

“Amy was wonderful with double visits for our big dogs on our wedding day. She sent pictures and we knew everything was aok! The dogs adored her from the first meet & greet and we look forward to welcoming her back in the future!”


About: I have taken care of mainly medium to large dogs with high energy. My aunt (having a team of Siberian Husky’s) would often ask for my help with training and race day prep so I was always playing around with dogs in large numbers when living in Colorado. I am currently out of work by 2:30pm Monday-Friday with majority weekend availability. I have no problem with any dog big or small, old or young. I am very active and can keep up with active dogs or slow down if it is an older dog and just go for a leisurely walk. I usually walk my dog for a half hour 3 times a day for a half hour and play with him in my back yard on nice days.

“Cara was excellent!! She took care of our little fur babies over the holidays and went above and beyond, even taking packages in for us. Highly recommend.”


About: I have had and have been around dogs my whole life. Have taken care of family pets for walks and boarding while they are on vacation. From the tiniest Chihuahua to Great Dane. My schedule allows me flexibility to care for your pet! I am available for boarding Monday-Fri. If longer term is needed feel free to contact me for arrangements. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby entertained! I have two crates in my home for use if needed.

“Dorothy was great with our dog Crosby. He instantly took to her during our meet and greet - she even brought treats for him. She was very attentive during her drop in visit with him and gave him lots of love.”


“Thanks so much to Charisma for stopping by to let Indigo out & feed him! My first time using the drop-in option on Rover. Great communication, quick replies, & she kept me updated on Indigo with pictures & followed up with me when she left! I will definitely be using her again in the future! 😊”


About: I’ve had dogs since I was 12 yrs old there’s nothing I love more than taking care of dogs and making sure there happy and need everything they deserve, I’ve taken care from puppy to senior dogs. Til this day I make time for animals I have 4 days off out of the week and I would love to help out those who need genuine care for there dogs I always make sure my dogs are on a leash, making sure there’s no wild animals out in the yard before I take them out, if I’m walking your dog and I see another dog coming I put myself to the side holding the dog close enough in where the other dog don’t get near us.

About: I've worked at several canine care facilities in three states over the course of seven years. I am proficient in training as well as facilitating safe play and exercise and I work from home full time. My husband is also experienced in the canine care field (where we met a years ago). We live in an active and very dog friendly neighborhood and take lots of walks to ensure that your dogs get enough activity and attention while they spend time away from home! We also have a spacious, fully fenced in yard. I am comfortable with short or long-term stays, dogs with special or medical needs, high energy or older dogs, having plenty of experience through my previous job which allowed me to dog-sit through the company. We have a nearly one-year old child who loves to look at dogs but has learned that we don’t allow him to physically interact with dogs (until he is much older/more in control of his body!) My knowledge of canine behavior and medical needs through years of supervisory positions in canine care companies is something I can apply now while caring for your dog. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to play with your dog and take them for walks or outside in the yard to run around. My husband is a teacher and is home by 3pm to provide additional engagement. I never take more than two dogs at a time, so I have plenty of time to focus on facilitating a healthy and fun environment.

“Giuseppe came and fed our dog, administered ear drops, walked and took care of our dog over MLk weekend. He was on time, gave us updates (with pictures!) and communicated clearly. Came home to a happy and well rested pup!”


“When we needed a last minute drop-in, K was a lifesaver! Great communication. Super helpful.”


“As always an excellent time for Cooper. Kage goes above and beyond and sends great pics and updates.”


About: I am a MPS Animal Science graduate from Cornell University. I am capable of administering subcutaneous/intramuscular injections, administering oral medications, performing nail trims, etc. I currently have 4 dogs of my own, a goat, a duck, 4 chickens, and a parakeet! Despite having a full-time job, pet care is implemented into my everyday life. At work, I am a laboratory technician who works with and cares for rabbits while at home I am a mom to a variety of animals both big and small. All pets are allowed on furniture and able to roam freely as they please! There is a plethora of toys to choose from to keep your pets busy and occupied. I have a small yard to allow for some outdoor play and potty time.

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors and families pets for extended periods (~7-10 days). I found a litter of feral kittens this past summer and cared for them until finding them homes. I’ve also watched many breeds of dogs from chihuahuas to mountain dogs. I’m available most days and hours as I don’t have much of a routine as this is my current source of income during my time of from college. My personal dogs are able to be off leash constantly as I am from a farm background which allows them to have a lot of space. The dogs I’ve watched often have fenced in yards that I’ll play with them in and let them outside on a schedule the owner has requested.

“Hannah took great care of our kitten and was a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend”


About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for my own dog, giving me hands on knowledge of pet needs at every stage of life. I’ve also provided dog sitting for family and friends, including walking, feeding, and bathing their dogs. My experience ensures pets feel loved, safe, and well cared for. I am currently a Senior student athlete at Sacred Heart University. I am available on Sundays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays to spend time with your furry friends! I will prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort by following their routine and ensuring their environment is secure. I will treat your home with respect and provide loving care, play, and companionship to keep your pet happy while you’re away!

About: Dogs are my passion! I started working with them as a walker prior to obtaining a position as an open-play supervisor at a busy kennel. I quickly became general manager of that same kennel. After a long-distance move, I obtained another position as a playroom supervisor and also became an obedience trainer. Additonally, I have work experience as a dog "hiker" in which I took small groups for extended forest hikes. I am able to provide pick up and drop off distance permitting. My services include: obedience and socialization training, daycare, boarding, hiking, and leash walks and/or playtime visits to your home. I am always open to arranging a meet and greet for prospective clients! I love dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities and look forward to getting to know your best friend soon!

About: I’ve owned dogs and cats since I was a baby! Within the past couple of years I’ve begun watching friends and family’s dogs and cats, whether it’s through house sitting or drop by visits. I’m extremely passionate about animals and work on training with my own dog! I have cared for senior dogs in the past, I also own multiple reptiles, so I understand advanced animal care! I’m currently a college student. I will need to be at classes for a few hours each week, and I can happily share my exact schedule. Otherwise, I am free! I’m happy to care for any sized animal. I especially love large dogs. I take my time with dogs and let them understand me at their own rate, but I’m happy to help with anything to help a pet settle in with a stranger around, whether this be training, snuggles, food, or space!

He has a long history of caring for dogs, from caring for a large number of huskies out in Colorado, to being the best dog walker to all of the residents' dogs. He matches their energy, whether they need sprints with balls in the field, short or long walks, or a hike up a mountain. I have not met a dog that hasn't loved him.

Although I hate leaving Okey, who usually spends all day with me, I don’t mind leaving her with Jessiana who makes sure she is safe and happy. Jessiana send me photos and lets me know how Okey is doing all the time. I highly recommend Jessiana to take care of your dog as she is dependable and makes sure Okey is always having fun!”

Carly M.
“I cannot recommend Carly enough. She watched both my senior dog and cat over multiple nights and did an outstanding job. She truly cares and loved my animals as if they were her own. My dog specifically has many health concerns and requires more extensive care. She requires multiple medications, with her receiving her medication a very particular way, prescription food prepared a certain way and she also has urinary incontinence issues. It’s hard leaving my dog with anyone and I did not have to worry when I left my dog in Carly’s care. She followed all my instructions while giving her so much love. When I arrived home my animals were very happy and my house was left in clean, perfect condition. Don’t hesitate booking Carly. She will take wonderful care of your pets.”
