About: I have lifelong experience with animal companions, and many years of experience caring for other people’s furry friends! I have experience with special needs animal companions, high needs breeds such as Great Pyrenees and dachshunds, and multi pet households. I am in grad school and very flexible with my time! I am free weekends and all weekdays after 3 pm, as well as most of the day Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I believe that our animal companions experience the full spectrum of emotion and sensation, and I treat our animal friends with as much respect, care and compassion as I do our human ones.

“Emily was great with the dogs and communication! Will definitely hire her again.”

About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was little, and not just family pets. While I grew up in a golden retriever family (on golden 4 now), I also currently have a cat, have had fish, guinea pigs, and bunnies. I have worked and volunteered at local farms, and bathed, groomed, fed, and played with all sorts of animals, and am equipped for a variety of animal care services. I also have lots of experience with pets of friends and family, and dog sitting, and get along well with all! I am currently a senior college student, and have classes Monday through Thursday, but am very flexible in the time around my classes, which only take up a small portion of the day. I am typically available anytime Friday through Sunday. I am very good at tending to animals needs, but also going beyond. I know how to play with animals and help even the shyest feel comfortable, whether with treats, playtime, cuddles, or even my dog’s personal favorite - classical music! I am good with animals who are fearful as much as I am good with animals bursting with energy. I am able to feed dogs and cats and any pet, make sure they always have water available, give them potty breaks and walks, and playtime and rest time as needed. And of course, I am always happy to just sit and keep animals company - they need it as much as we do!

About: I'm very a very patient person, particularly when it comes to animals. I live in an apartment with ample space and an unfenced back yard. I live close to various walking paths and nature. I have a Saint Bernard of my own so I am used to caring for large dogs. If you wish for your dog to be boarded, she will have a friend who will be very excited to meet them. I promise to give them lots of love and affection. I have grown up around animals and am used to the big responsibility of caring for them. Your dog will be in good hands! I am currently working as a therapist in town. I'm able to make my own schedule, which allows for flexibility in being able to provide care. I will provide care to your standard and expectations - I promise to treat them with the same level of care that I do my own.

“Jacklyn has been an excellent dog walker! She sends a detailed review of each walk and was very accommodating when I needed a second dog to join. My dog has really enjoyed having walking with her.”

About: Hi pet parents!! I take care of every pet like they’re my own. I have two cats of my own and have also looked after dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I make sure every pet is happy and thriving, and I like to send regular updates so you know they’re more than okay while you’re away. Hi pet parents! I’m available for pet care and can adjust to fit your needs. I’m currently between 9 to 5 roles, which gives me flexibility to care for your pets whenever they need me. I know cats especially feel most comfortable in their own space, so when caring for pets in their home, I follow their usual routines, provide affection and supervision, and make sure they feel safe and relaxed.

About: I have had dogs and cats as part of my family all my life. I have taken care of puppies and kittens to seniors and every step in between of my own and friends and family. My job is based on volume and is generally 6 to 8 hour day. I work 5 minutes from my house and at anytime if needed I would be able to run home for a potty or medication break My dogs are my world. I provide the up most safety standards for all of the furry paws that come into my life. I believe in treating everyone pets in a manner that I would expect mine to be. I have gone above and beyond to provide a secure fenced in yard. I also have a gate between the living area of my house and the front door to keep dogs from running out.

“Tanya was wonderful with my dog Skylar. It gave me peace of mind to know she was in such good hands while I’m tied up at work. She walks her, plays with her and sends me a report after. I’m super grateful we found her.”

About: I am intuitive and attentive to the animals feelings and needs. I focus on their happiness and well being. I engage constantly, feed them delicious nutrients, exercise them well and try to make our short time as positive as I can. I truly enjoy prioritizing and bonding with them! I have fostered dogs for over a year and have experience with all personalities and breeds. I take care of pets part-time, but when they’re with me they will be my priority as if they were my own. Lots of outdoor time and playtime. I can crate train, but I have experience and am comfortable without. I want the animal to be as comfortable as possible, so they are free to treat my home as their own.

“Sarah was great with our active dog - They had a fun time exploring! Sarah is conscientious and professional. We are looking forward to working with her in the future.”

“James is super sweet with our pups. They challenged him but with his patience and tender persistence, their first off leash solo walk was a success! Thank you James, we are looking forward to having you take them on more walks.”

About: I have had small animals and a dog, and have cared for dogs, cats, horses, and fish. I am completely in love with all creatures big or small, and I've dedicated a lot of my time to the care of animals. I have recently worked at a dog boarding facility, so I have lots of experience with administering medication to animals, and tending to their specific needs. Me and my family are all super passionate about animals, especially dogs. I will love your baby just as much as I love my own, and make sure all their needs are met. My weekdays are not typically very busy so I can come and take your dog for a walk or play with your cats pretty much any time, given enough notice. Thank you so much for considering me to care for your best friend! I try to vary my jobs so my schedule changes often, but always ask! I am currently getting my BSN at HCC, but time management is no problem for me :) I do not have a fenced yard, but I do have a big field to the side of my house that my dog runs around in. I'm sure your pets will enjoy running with him. In terms of taking care of pets in my client's homes, I treat their belongings with utmost care and tact. I would definitely dislike anyone messing with my house, so I try to treat other people's houses with the same respect I would expect them to treat mine with. "leave everything as you found it or better"

About: I was blessed with a feline friend at the age of 2. Although I do not remember all of our times together, she has been by my side through all of life's up's and down's. We have even experienced the responsibility of sharing our home with 2 more companions: a Maltese and a Chihuahua! It is quite a random pool of different beings! Nevertheless, we all seem to get along. I do all I can to ensure their well being is top notch. You really grow a love for your companion(s) and it's hard to not care for them. I am full time and have no restrictions to my schedule. I am available as early as 6:00am and can accommodate appointments during sundown. I am easy to communicate with and straightforward with negotiations. It is a dogs fantasy: a large neighborhood with quiet streets to explore, 2 nearby parks to frolic and play, with a dog park frequently visited by other furry friends and their owners.

About: I grew up with a fear of dogs that only ebbed when I was 13, after my family started fostering an older Australian cattle dog mix. She was smart, sweet, and scarily strong. Taking care of her taught me how to stay calm, deescalate her excitement when necessary, and also match her energy and enthusiasm. My fear is gone and now I love to make friends with new dogs! I work 9 to 5 on Monday through Friday— I’m available on weekends, as well as all mornings and evenings outside of my regular job schedule. I also get federal holidays off, so I am generally free on weekdays that fall into that category. I love spending time with animals and am so happy to dole out as much affection as they want! However, I'm also pretty good at reading their body language and realizing when they need space to do their own thing. Every animal has different needs and I pride myself on respecting that!

About: I’ve had dogs since early childhood so I am very familiar with everyday pet care in the home. I’ve worked in pet care since the summer after graduating high school, and I’m currently a senior in college. Through this, I was exposed to a wide array of pets of different ages, sizes, comfort levels, personalities, and health needs. I believe every animal is good and just need some patience and kindness! Due to my prior employment I also feel more than comfortable and am qualified to safely administer medication if an animal needs. I’m currently a college student at Umass. I am mostly looking for jobs after/in between classes and on weekends. I have a relatively open schedule so most likely could come on shorter notice if necessary. I would be caring for pets in their own home, which is the best and most comfortable place for them to be! I am willing to walk dogs or take them out for a drive, whatever they like!

About: I’ve grown up taking care of dogs in my home since I was young. Five years ago, I rescued a handsome handful named Alphie. I currently have a beautiful 8 year old rescue and have learned a lot of positive training techniques that I will bring to any pup friend that I meet. I work from home and have updated availability for house sitting, drop ins, and walks. I love exploring new hikes, running new routes, and spending time at the dog park. If we find that your dog is a good fit with my own, I am willing to arrange some social time but generally leave Alphie at home when watching other dogs!! I am currently studying for a licensing exam while working part time from home. I am happy to adjust my schedule to fit into your animal’s routines and needs. I’m very active and love to go on runs, walks, and hikes with pups. I love walking around neighborhoods and exploring with dog friends! I think safe socialization is really important and am open to creating space for dogs to play!

“Callum is calm and kind to our mastiff (and she can be picky). He's easy to work with and reliable. We're so glad we found him on Rover.”
