“Sheri took great care of my cats when I was on a trip. She even let's you know how much they were fed! She is a fantastic communicator and took any questions in stride. Thank you!”
“Kami was very accommodating with my last minute request for a drop-in visit the next day. She arrived promptly and sent an adorable picture of my little ones who looked very content with their new friend. I will reach out to Kami again for future needs.”
“I could tell on Wyatt's meet and greet that Andrea was a compassionate animal care giver. Wyatt took to her immediate and by the end of the visit they were fast friends. I was able to go away with my mind at ease that Wyatt will be well cared for. Andrea sent updates and pictures with every visit letting me know he was okay. I now look forward to getting away more because I know my skittish rescue dog is in good hands. I can't recommend her enough. Thank you Andrea.”
About: I grew up with a Boxer in the family so I am familiar with caring and loving for my own pup. Unfortunately, I never owned another dog after her, but would love to meet more pups! I am around dogs constantly as I work with families in their homes so I am definitely comfortable being around them! I currently work a full time job, but would love to come take care of your furry babies. I would be willing to drop in before work, but definitely would have more flexibility when I get out! I would also be available on weekends. I know first hand what it’s like to miss your pet. I would be so happy to send you MANY pictures of your furry baby and let you know what they’ve been up to. I will provide any cuddles and pets that they are comfortable with and of course provide some play time!
“Jen was really great! My kitty really liked her and she always sent pictures of them playing. She answered my texts right away and let me know if she thought anything was wrong with my frequently sick kitty. Felt very relaxed on vacation with Jen taking care of her.”
“My dog Riley loves Traci!! As a rescue with abandonment anxiety I was nervous to leave Riley with someone other than family, but Traci makes her so comfortable I know she’s in good hands when she’s here! She came over to meet Riley with me here which made for a great transition for Riley and helped put me at ease. She always sends pictures and keeps us updated. I’d highly recommend booking Traci! Riley can’t wait for her next visit!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and have always had a passion to help both animals and people alike. My husband and I have a three year old pup at home named Timber and a one year old female named Nollie who we trained ourselves. We both have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds and temperaments so nothing is outside our wheelhouse! I currently work full time from home and have plenty of spare time on breaks, after work and on weekends to spend with pups! Anytime after 430 during the week, some Saturday slots and Sundays are available as well! While we can’t take dogs in our home due to size we will happily come to you! Both have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes. We do not believe in treating dogs with aggression because after all they are just dogs, all dogs will be treated with the utmost care and kindness with all the loves!
About: I have been a veterinary technician for a long time! I have recently changed careers and have been a student again. I miss being around fur babies and I would love to have the opportunity to do it again! I started my career with animals in a shelter and moved into the veterinary field. I have had too many foster animals of all types to even count! I am completely confident in my skills weather that be behavioral, medical, age specific, etc. My own pets are all over the rainbow bridge now and I deeply miss these interactions. Very available unless on vacation. Reach out if you need something! We may be able to make it happen! Full time student home for the summer ready to take care of your fur babies! I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a large yard to walk your dog all around! We also have a great area to go on longer walks right on our street! While your away, let your pet have the experience of their very own vacation with me!
“Kerry was very communicative and reliable as usual. I don’t have to worry about my kitties when I’m away because I know Kerry gives them all the love and care they need! I will be happy to hire her again in the future!”
“Linda watched our cat, Maka, while we were out of town this past weekend. She was a sweetheart and went over and beyond to make sure Maka was taken care of, sending plenty of pics and videos each time she visited. Very appreciated!”
About: Cats or dogs, big or small, I'm willing to care for them! I have grown up around animals, including non furry friends like tortoises! I used to frequently walk dogs for friends and family as well as pet sit cats and dogs for others. While pet sitting, I have followed detailed instructions and administered medication to dogs. Whether your animal needs someone to play with and keep them active, or just lounge and keep them company, I'm here. I can do any day of the week Monday through Friday! I'm available in the mornings and afternoons, sometimes evenings depending on the task and how late I am needed. In my home, we care for my dog by putting him on a long lead when he is outside to keep him from running off or venturing off into unsafe territory. He has plenty of space to play and lounge around the house (he's a big dog!).
“Melissa is the best! We were very nervous leaving our cat for the first time, since she’s very shy but Melissa’s communication, attention to detail, and kindness put us at ease! Thank you so much for taking such great care of Mabel!”
About: I volunteer at my local animal shelter and I am great with both dogs and cats. I grew up with my cat, Hepsiba, born before me who died when I was nearly 20 years of age. We were best friends before I knew what that was. Then at the age of 12 or so, my parents adopted 2 English cocker spaniels, brother and sister. Robbie and Flora. So I was taking care of three pets. Then I raised Bruce, a rescued black lab mix from August 2013 until 2025 with some breaks for the US Army. And I taught him very well; he passed in June 2025 but he will always be my companion at my side. For some time I carried him, 120 lbs, up and down flights of stairs. Sometimes from here to there, carefully, comfortably, gingerly. I’ve taken care of pets for family members and friends. And did so professionally in the past prior to Rover, after friends got me into it. I’m great with animals. After spending even just a short time with them we can often establish a connection or rapport, especially when training a younger pet (or caring for an older dog). I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, I could run with your dog, play with them, but mostly we’ll be doing what they want - within reason. If it could be all I did, all the time - I think that I would like that just fine. I’ll need a heads up at first to secure prep, but after that I could spend virtually all of my time with your companions - needing only to stop momentarily for supplies. Generally, boarding an animal at my own home is a much bigger ask, if it’s to be overnight. But then it’s fairly simple. Massasoit State Park is half a mile from my house and offers a great destination - all the dogs I’ve taken care of and brought there have loved it. At a home that the pet is used to is really a non-issue, (it helps if the owner is there when I meet the companion in question). Overnight and for extended lengths, though - it would only be a matter of making sure I’d have what I’d need for the length of time, so I would need just a little prep time.
About: I'm 100% an animal lover! I've had 3 dogs growing up and multiple cats. I’ve also had 3 male Nigerian dwarf goats! I currently have 3 dogs, Hazel, Lexi, and Timber and a cat! Hazel, Lexi, and Timber love playing with all dogs big or small! If you need help with your fur baby, we would love to help! We love going for walks and making new friends! No matter if your fur baby is a dog or cat, I will treat them as if they were my own and make sure that they each get all the love and attention they need! I also have experience with reptiles and fish, so if you need extra help with your other pets, I’m the girl! Thank you for checking out my page, I hope to hear from you soon!! I dog walk full time and my schedule is always flexible! Im available 7days a week between the hours of 7am-7pm, but I’ll adjust my schedule to work for you and your fur babies! I can crate your pets if needed at anytime. When feeding I always keep each dog in separate areas. Dogs are always leashed when outside
About: Your pets safety and happiness is my top priority. I have experience working in multiple doggy daycares, volunteering at a cat shelter, and pet sitting for friends and family. I am familiar with all types of breeds, big & small, energetic, couch potato, reactive and non reactive. Helping animals has always been a great passion of mine and I strive for new challenges to face. I currently work PT as a Dietary Aid making my schedule very limited monday’s, thursdays and every other weekends. I have more availability on the other days of the week, (walks, drop in visits, and overnight care). Dogs tend to be more comfortable in their own homes so I provide those services to ensure the happiness and safety of all. For every visit, I bring a pet first aid kit, extra leashes, towels, treats, water/water bowls, tick removal kit, pooper scooper, etc. Your pet will receive the spoiled treatment with me!
