“I could not recommend Shauna more! She stayed at our home with our pup for over a week while we were on vacation and our house and dog could not have been in better hands. She sent wonderful updates/photos and cared for our place as if it were her own. Having someone so responsible while being away made our trip just that much more enjoyable. We can hardly wait to have her back and I know our furry friend agrees! Thank you, Shauna!”

“Colleen did a wonderful job watching our dog for a week while we were out of town. She left our home extremely clean and was very communicative with updates and photos. We’d recommend her for anyone looking for pet care and house sitting!”

“Lindsey was great! Her communication was clear and her replies were prompt. She stayed overnight for 2 nights and took very good care of our German Shepherd, Max, while we were away. I would definitely recommend her if you're looking for a sitter for your furry friend!”

“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've always loved dogs and cats and felt very passionate about them. I have two years animal shelter experience taking care of dogs and cats. This included feeding several different types of foods and diets to pets, ensuring pets' safety, cleaning cages and kennels, cleaning litter boxes, and taking out dogs into the yard. I am available most days and times every week to care for your pets. I offer mostly drop ins and I do have exceptions like I will be going on vacation this month so just message me within one day to request a booking. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I pay attention to dogs and cats body languages to ensure their safety needs and emotional needs are met. I let pets come to me first so that they can feel comfortable and safe around me. I treat every pet with respect and if they do not want to say hi yet, that is totally fine with me I will feed them and clean litterbox, etc and they will warm up to me eventually. I watch puppies and young dogs very carefully so that they do not get into trouble and I always make sure the floors are puppy/dog proofed.
“Madeline was great! Easy to work with and very attentive to our puppy’s needs. She showed up on time to an early sitter request and took great care of our dog. Our puppy even whined at the door when she left.”

“Julia was a wonderful sitter for our puppy Millie. She had very good communication from the start, was prompt, and took great care of our dog. Photos were sent of our happy puppy playing with toys and playing outside. She obviously enjoys spending time with dogs and we’d be lucky to have her watch Millie again.”


About: I have extensive experience raising dogs in my home starting from my late high school years. My family has had three Cavalier King Charles Spaniels 🐶 that I’ve helped raise and care for, for almost 5 years now! This includes potty training, feeding, grooming, walking, administering medicine, and many other care tasks. This includes pets with long-lasting illnesses. Additionally, I have helped with cats as well, feeding, administering medicine, cleaning litter boxes, and checking in. Whatever you need, I can certainly help with! I am a college student entering my senior year, and I spend my summers in Massachusetts. I am available night and day to help you and your pet feel safe and comfortable! With pets of my own, I have lots of experience under my belt. I understand that last-minute emergencies can occur and that you may need a pet-sitter on short notice. I am here for you if that is to happen! I am also able to help with recurring/routine care. Whatever you need, I can help with! Because I have pets in my own home, I will mostly be working in clients’ homes. I am a clean and respectful house guest, and I will do whatever I can to make your pet feel safe and loved with a stranger.
“Hannah did a fantastic job with our 2 dogs for a week-long stint. She sent lots of great pictures and notes and took great care of them. She is clearly responsible and on top of things and a good communicator. We will definitely book with her again!”


About: Something I think sets me apart from other sitters is my experience working at a doggy-daycare. That environment and the chaos that comes along with it has prepared me to take care of any dog of any size. Likewise, last summer I spent approximately 2 months unofficially training and dog-sitting a Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy, so I have experience in taking care of younger dogs as well. I also have a bulldog at home, so I have a deep understanding in what it takes to take care of dogs of that nature. Starting Mid-May I will be interning, so depending on my hours I may be more avaiable in the afternoon or mornings. However, that means I have every Sunday free and would be able to pop-in and out frequently. We have an electric fence for my dog, but she does not wear her collar (classic bulldog) so we make sure she is supervised at all times. I will not let any dogs play unsupervised and would only bring them on agreed upon areas to walk, or anything else owners permit.

About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was born! I grew up with Dalmatians and cocker spanials and cats. As an adult, I had 2 golden retrievers and an orange tabby. So I have tons of experience with dogs and cats of all ages! I work full time as a nanny but I have free rein on where I take the kids. So even if I’m at work, I can go to the house to take the dog out or take care of anything that needs to be done. I’m comfortable doing whatever your dog is used to! Whether it’s being crated during the day or at bed time, snuggling in bed, just tell me what they’re used to and that’s what we’ll do!
“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!”

“Abhay was absolutely amazing. On first contact, his enthusiasm to meet and greet both us an our animals was encouraging. We knew from first meet that we could be confident and comfortable leaving our babies and our home in his care for two weeks. We were not wrong. Everything went as planned and our babies and our home were cared for perfectly according to our requests. We would, without question, request his services again and highly recommend to others.”

“Molly was a great help with Bailey while I went away on vacation for a long weekend. Bailey was very comfortable with her really and the pics Molly sent during my trip allowed to relax worry free :)”

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 three black labs and multiple cats over the years. I especially love big dogs, but am a big fan of all animals! Besides Saturdays, I am available any day and any times through the summer. I start law school at the very end of August and will have less availability at that time, but I will still be looking for work! 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!
About: As a pet owner myself, I am dedicated to providing exceptional pet care with a focus on love, attention, and playtime. Let me be your pet’s favorite companion while you're away! I currently work full-time during the week, but I’m available on weekends for pet care services! I’m happy to help with walks, drop-in visits or overnight stays. I always make sure your pets get plenty of attention and care while you’re away! I take great pride in ensuring my dog and cat receive the love, attention, and exercise they need to thrive. From daily walks and bathroom breaks to playtime and cuddles, I prioritize their well-being above all else. With my experience and genuine love for animals, I'm committed to providing the same level of care and attention to your pets as I do my own, ensuring they're happy, healthy, and well-cared for in your absence.
“Kelly was awesome. From our initial meet and greet to her pupsitting at our home for a few days, the process couldn’t have been any better. Communication was 100%. From the fun photos Kelly sent daily, we could tell our pups were so happy. We have 3 pups and 2 have special needs and she nailed it! We felt totally comfortable and will use Kelly’s service again.”

Liz was great with our puppy Sammie! She was very communicative and took excellent care of our pup and house. Sammie is in her adolescent phase so requires a lot of attention, and Liz didn't seem phased by her mischievous behavior. Will definitely use her again!

I could not recommend Shauna more! She stayed at our home with our pup for over a week while we were on vacation and our house and dog could not have been in better hands. She sent wonderful updates/photos and cared for our place as if it were her own. Having someone so responsible while being away made our trip just that much more enjoyable. We can hardly wait to have her back and I know our furry friend agrees! Thank you, Shauna!
