“I would like to say that Katara is humble and passionate with our dog Sonny. From the first time they met until now, there is a strong bond between them. Sonny has adapted to Katara and is always excited to see her. She is an asset whose devotion to pets makes us feel lucky to have her watch Sonny.”

“This was our first time using Rover and for our wedding weekend at that! McKenna was all-around phenomenal: Coming by early for a meet-and-greet, sending us updates and photos, and most importantly - she was great with our girl Skye ♥ She made both dog and pet parents completely comfortable, and I would one hundred percent recommend her to anyone! S+C”


3. Caitlin H.

“Caitlin was amazing! It was obvious that Ollie and Daisy loved her. She was very accommodating and took care of our pups with love and kindness. I would ask Caitlin to watch Ollie and Daisy again in a heartbeat! Thank you Caitlin!!”


4. Kailie G.

“Kailie watched our senior pup and two cats over a long weekend and everything went really well. Prior to the weekend, Kailie stopped by to go over things which was very much appreciated because I'm the nervous one when it comes to leaving our pets when traveling. This was our first time working with Kailie and she was great about sending updates, pics and taking care of the house. I could tell everyone was getting lots of attention and cuddles. Even our skittish cat came out of hiding! We highly recommend Kailie for your pet/house sitting needs!”


5. Jess L.
“Jess is great with our dogs. She has watched the two of our dogs on multiple occasions and sometimes 3 or 4. She takes the time out of her day to make sure they get plenty of attention and time outside to play. She also stays at our house when she watches the dogs and the house is always in great shape afterwards too. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone to stay with your dogs and make sure they get at the loving and attention they need while you are away.”

About: I have had two dogs my entire life and am constantly walking, feeding and caring for them. When I was 12 I started pet siting for friends and neighbors, and I have experience with all sorts of animals. I am currently a senior in high school. I love to spend time with pets and to make a little money on the side to save up for college. I have a large fenced yard and a nice neighborhood for walks. I also have dogs that your dog could play with, and all the toys and leashes that come with them.

She treats every pet as if they were her own, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved. Her warmth, reliability and professionalism make her an absolute joy to work with. Amanda S. is not just a great caretaker, but also a truly wonderful person who goes above and beyond to provide the best experience possible.”

15. Jason R.
“I know Jason to be a responsible & loving dog owner. He has taken the time to raise & train his own dog & spends the necessary time to play & interact with his dog. He walks his dog regularly. He is an honest & trustworthy person who would only treat others’ pets as he would his own. This would not be a chore or a job for him, it would be a privilege to assist others in pet caregiving.”


16. Danielle P.

About: I have always cared for, loved & owned dogs for as long as I can remember. I love to walk so why not combine two loves into one lovely hobby! I live close to the Ashuwillticook Trail and the Greylock Glen where we will have great fun. Can’t wait to meet your special pup & make him/her the happiest hound in town. Whatever it takes I aim to please & pamper your PAWSOME pet! ❤️ 🐶😺 ❤️ I've always cared for, loved & owned cats as well. I would love to meet your special friend & build the fondest feline memories. As for all those small critters, I have experience with many different kinds including fish, hamsters, gerbils, parakeets, ferrets, rabbits and more. Volunteered at Animal Dreams shelter for a series of weeks through a service learning program at MCLA. I work part time as a nurse & ski instructor in the winter. I would love to help out with all of your pet care needs. I'm dependable & ready, snow, sleet, wind, rain or shine with references available upon request. I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon to set up a meet & greet with you & your main squeeze 😍 My schedule is moderately flexible. I would love to become a full time Rover girl in the future. I love all animals. I believe they are vulnerable creatures and most rely on humans to care for & protect them. If you are without a vehicle or your work schedule is super rigid I can pick up or drop off your fur-ever-luv if needed. I would love to help out anyway that I can. I own two dog friendly cats & I will look after your pet as if she/he were my own. I will do everything I can to make it the safest, most comfortable and memorable experience for your special pet.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I worked on a farm in 2023 and the rest of my experience is from dog sitting at clients homes, dog walking, house sitting, etc, as well as my own pets. I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule and can check on your pet periodically throughout the day, free all night and on weekends I’d be happy to house sit for you while watching your furry loved ones and taking them on walks, feeding, etc. I am also very good at bathing all animals if needed!
