“Megan was terrific! She's totally dependable and went above and beyond, even doing things for us we hadn't thought of. She took good care of our cat, and we couldn't be happier with her care! We will book her again. Thank you Megan.”



About: Hi everyone! My name is Marina, I am originally from from Philadelphia and have always had animals growing up. I currently live alone with no pets, have a flexible work schedule, and look forward to caring for your pets as if they were my own. I live close to my office and often work remotely, so I am very flexible depending on your dogs needs. I also live between Logan and DuPont circles - great for squirrel watching! I make sure dogs staying at my home are comfortable and have their own space. I live alone and fairly high up in an apartment building, so there is little noise.

“Armani is by far the best dog sitter. She looked after one of our very reactive dogs for an extended period in the past. She built such a bond with him that we refuse to call anyone else. This time around, it was all 3 dogs. When I say her passion for this is obvious, it's an understatement. The way she handles our dogs with genuine care is so comforting. Our dogs LOVE Armani. And I always trust my dogs' instincts. She works magic with these characters. My reactive dog couldn't be left with anyone else, ever. Armani has become his best friend. My smallest dog takes a while to warm up and trust people. By the end of the visit, she was giving Armani kisses. My dogs do not like visitors, but definitely look forward to seeing Armani walk through the door. And that's because they know she is going to care for them and give them all the love, patience, safety, and treats they deserve. She's just amazing. She's also a phenomenal communicator. Aside from the detailed rover cards with copious pictures that we absolutely love, she has messaged us to update us or to even get clarification on anything she might have questions about. Especially involving the routine we have them on. I say all of that to say I will call Armani even before I call on my family to look after our dogs. That's the level of trust we have in her. With Armani, your dogs are in good hands. Periodt.”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was ten years old, and I absolutely love their company! I love caring for pets of all ages; our sweet rescue passed away a year ago, who we took in during her golden years, and now my wife and I have a 2.5 year old pup with an abundance of youthful energy. O she loves making new friends, and we would love to have some more dog time ourselves! We go on regular walks, play in the dog park at least once a day, and can handle any dietary, medical, or other type of need your little one has. I’m a paraprofessional; so I have summers off. I work freelance and gig jobs, which I mostly do from home and am used to scheduling around a dog care routine, as we have our own dog at home. I have a fenced yard, and our own dog to keep yours company! I have no issues following any boundaries you’d like me to follow with your pet: I’m happy to crate them when they need time to relax, keep them on or off leash as you prefer, and make sure they’re provided stimulation, play, and opportunities to earn treats!

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs for the past 7 years and helped to train them. In addition I used to watch dogs for families at my country club and do overnight visits. I can fit it in any way possible. I’m at college now so I’m lacking it and am looking forward to having the opportunity to do it more often. When I am home I love always being with and walking my dogs I do what I am told they like and try to keep things simple till the dog itself trusts me. I make sure to pet it and give it food

“Ellis helped us out in a pinch when we were in the middle of changing jobs! Our new puppy loved him and we trusted him from the start. He's a great guy, good with dogs, and I highly recommend his service!”


About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. Looking to get my own, but in the meantime, would be excited to watch yours. I have plenty of toys and treats and I’m happy to do anything that makes you feel comfortable to keep your furry friend happy! I currently work at Dartmouth Hitchcock full-time which is why I typically can only watch during the weekend. My flexibility means I can also sometimes work remote. Depending on your preference, I’m sure we can work out something great. I am happy to do anything that makes you feel comfortable. I love to go for a walk, so I’m happy to take them down to the small park that we have. Or if they’re not much of a walker, I’m happy to sit and relax as long as they know how to pick a TV show.

“Julia was amazing! She came and played with my kitten Tequi every night to get out the wiggles while I was away. She understood that Tequi was shy when meeting new people and took her time letting Tequi get comfortable with her and tailoring playtime so that even when Tequi was nervous she could still be happy and have fun. She also accommodated me while I was away out of the country and only have minimal wifi. She insured to update me nightly with multiple pictures/videos. She helped ease the stress of leaving her for the first time and made me comfortable that Tequi was in great hands and was probably having more fun than I was!”


About: I have spent a lot of time taking care of dogs, whether it's just taking them on walks or staying with them for extended periods of time, and have never had a bad experience! I'm an outdoor gal, so you can be sure that I'll take your dog on nice long walks, or even hikes for the super active ones. I am very good with schedules, so I will ensure that your dog gets fed on time, gets any medications it may need, and I will also provide daily love and snuggles. I am not currently working - I am home most of the time and have plenty of time and availability for cuddles, play time, walks, etc. Your dog will not be left home for long periods of time. I have a large home and (unfenced) yard. I live on a quiet street so not a lot of traffic. I live right by the beach and can bring your dog swimming, or take them on long walks!

About: I have loved animals all my life. I enjoy to be around them and have experience feeding, playing, walking, cleaning up after, and loving and cuddling. I created a dog walking business when I was in the sixth grade. It slowly grew as others saw the love, care, and communication I put into caring for their pets. I want to return to my business in a new way and continue my true passion, love for all animals. I would love to pet sit for your animals whenever needed. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or special requests. I am always open to a discussion. Currently, I work full-time at Dartmouth College. I work 1130-10-pm Wednesday-Saturday and have Sunday-Tuesday off. Please reach out for confirmation on my schedule. Let me know what your needs are and we can discuss if its a good fit. Can't wait to talk to you soon! Will listen and follow all of your instructions to properly care for your animals. Open to discussing terms of pet sitting. I can come over to your house or live in to care for your pets.

About: My mother is a veterinarian with her own practice, so I grew up around an abundance of animals and know plenty about caring for them. My career allows me to choose my own schedule, I don't usually have shifts longer than 5/6 hours long. This allows me to take dogs out for walks or to a dog park, or I can just go home and hang out with my cat. I have a large fenced in yard with access to woods, plenty of local trails for dog walks, local lake of your dog likes to swim. Dogs and cats in my home, but there's a good sized guest bedroom that is kept closed of from the rest of my home if you have a pet that is less friendly with others.

About: I’ve taken care of and lived with dogs and cats my entire life. I am an agriculture student and former horseback rider with experience caring for animals including chickens, goats, horses, cows and more. I am currently a full time student, but my remote coursework allows me ample flexibility to care for animals multiple times throughout any given day. Unfortunately my apartment complex does not allow me to bring animals to my apartment. However, I am willing to travel to a clients home to care for their animals. I treat every client, their pets and their home with the utmost respect and care.

“Olivia has been awesome. She is conscientious and prompt. She genuinely cares for our cat Leo and has taken extra effort to work with him and make him comfortable. We appreciate her dedication and professionalism. Thank you and we will definitely have her care for our pets again.”


About: I’ve had a family dog for my entire life. I walked my family’s dog nearly every day and have had experience pet sitting for family and friends when they are away. I am very active and am comfortable walking dogs for any desired distance! I am currently a medical student and looking to walk dogs and pet-sit in my free time after school during the week and on weekends! I have one friendly dog in my home. There is no fenced in yard, but have plenty of space for a crate and room to play!

Jayleen T.
“We look forward to each time Jayleen takes care of our 9 year old male french bulldog. He is a member of our family, our first baby to be sure, and we trust her implicitly with his life and wellbeing. Its truly a fantastic feeling to be without worry when we aren’t there, knowing he gets the most loving and thorough care when he is with her. Jayleen is wonderful with animals, (patient, loving and attentive, responsible, confident and assertive.) In addition, we’ve known Jayleen for well over ten years now, and she is a remarkable and lovely person with a beautiful energy, a lively, sweet, happy spirit and it goes without saying she’s smart as hell. We couldn’t ask for a better fit for our dog’s tender loving care. ”


Michael L.
“Mike took care of my cat Zucchini when I was traveling and did such a wonderful job! My cat be a bit shy with new people, but Mike was so gentle and patient that my cat quickly warmed up to him. Mike also made sure to send me daily updates with photos which was so appreciated. Truly so trustworthy and responsible, and I could feel the love he has for animals. I 100% recommend Mike as a pet caregiver and will for sure use his services again. Thank you so much, Mike! - Stefanie & Zucchini”


Olive T.
“Olive is my go-to dog and cat sitter. I have two Labrador Retrievers and two Maine Coon cats. My labs love her--she stays overnight (and lets the dogs cuddle in bed with her, which is their preference), walks the dogs, plays with them, and feeds the dogs and cats according to schedule. Olive's mother is my vet--which leaves me to believe that Olive knows how to manage and handle dogs by osmosis! She is very dependable, leaves my home tidier than it was when I left, and communicates with me (texts and photos) while I am away.”


Meredith C.
“Meredith is an incredibly responsible and loving pet caregiver, her heart is so welcoming to pets of all kinds, shapes, and sizes. She will extend such loving care to any animal she is around, I trust Meredith with my large Great Dane consistently, she knows how to handle him with his behaviors, his reactions on and off the leash, even giving him medication. Anyone would be so lucky to have Meredith take care of their pet.”

Taylor M.
“Taylor is a very responsible person, who dearly loves to take care of dogs. They give her a spark of joy and you can see that in the way she cares for her own family dog.
