About: I’ve always been comfortable with dogs of all types. I grew up with dogs and have spent my whole life around animals, so caring for them feels natural to me. I’m calm, confident, and make sure to adjust to each dog’s individual needs so they feel safe, understood, and well cared for. I work full‑time during the day, but I’m available in the early mornings and evenings to take care of your pet. That gives me plenty of time for feeding, walks, playtime, or whatever they need before and after work. Mondays are my completely open day, so I’m available all day then for longer visits or extra care. My goal is to ensure your pet feels genuinely cared for. I pay close attention to their routine and what they need, and I make sure they stay comfortable, happy, and relaxed the whole time they’re with me.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life, I took animal science in High school and worked in dog related jobs for about 5 years. I currently have five of my own fur babies. 3 pups and 2 cats I currently am out of work for the summer and I have open availability. Late August I will return to work as a preschool teacher and will be available evenings and weekends. I will take care of your dog as if they were my own, following all the requirements that you set up before hand. Giving your dog all my attention and love.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs on and off for years and I’ve had a couple of my own. Would be happy to host your pet for a day or a few days, whatever your need is. I am fully retired at this time and will have plenty of time to play with and care for your pet. I am available weekdays and nights as well as some weekends. I am also available to watch them at your house as well if you’d prefer. I am happy to follow your feeding schedule and to take your pet for a daily walk. There are no young children or anyone else living in the house except me.
“Courtney was great! She sent me pictures every visit, checked in and out when she dropped in, took care of my plants, and when she dropped off my key, my cats ran to greet her, obviously having enjoyed the play time with her. I will definitely book Courtney again.”

“Amber was a pleasure, Hudson was immediately comfortable with her. Her love care and concern for dogs was easy to feel. The pictures she provided say it all Hudson was very happy! Thanks so much!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for the past 8 years. Friends, family, and neighbors can rely on me to take care of their pets I am currently available any day and time during the week that works best for your busy schedule. I have plenty of time to play. I have a decent sized yard with two friendly dogs to help keep your pup company. I can crate and leash if needed for safety
“Maddie is a reliable, responsible pet sitter and is very attentive to our pets. I feel safe with her in my home and my pets just adore her. Maddie is polite, courteous and I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
“RaeLynn has been such a blessing. Tribe has major anxiety due to trauma he suffered as a puppy, As a result he requires a lot of patience and honestly he just needed someone to see the sweet and loving boy that he truly is. I was really nervous to try rover, but reading RaeLynns profile I felt confident that my baby would be in good hands given her experience and training. And I was absolutely right. We ran into a few bumps along the way but through each step Tribe was treated with patient understanding, love and kindness. I am so grateful and will 100% be contacting RaeLynn for our future sitter needs. Thank you so much”


About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of experience caring for everything from my dogs to reptiles and fish. I’m currently a proud mom to a very spoiled bearded dragon and a few beloved fish, and I’ve spent the last two years as a dog lead volunteer at my local animal rescue. Working hands‑on with dogs of all personalities, from shy and nervous to goofy and energetic, has taught me patience, empathy, and how to help animals feel safe and understood. I take my time getting to know each pet so they feel comfortable with me, and I’m always happy to do any research needed to make sure your furry family member gets the best care possible. While I work full‑time, I offer early mornings, weeknights, and weekend availability to fit your schedule. I have weekday availability around both Plymouth and Milford areas. I can’t wait to meet your furbabies and treat them like my own. Pet care is already part of my everyday life. I care for my own pets daily and volunteer as a dog lead at my local rescue each week, so working animal time into my schedule feels natural. Even with a full‑time job, I have early morning, weeknight, and weekend availability to give your pets the attention they need, so while you are away you can be assured that they are taken care of. I care for pets in their home by keeping their routine consistent and following your instructions closely, so the feel safe and secure at home. I take time to help your pet feel comfortable, give them plenty of attention, and keep your home tidy and respected. I’ll send updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Sami was wonderful caring for our two cats over an almost one month ?hen we were in Europe. She managed some difficult health issues with one cat and administering medications. Every day she was there on time for feedings and it was a great comfort to have her help us. Recommend highly”

I haven been taking care of pets for almost 4 years now. I would love you help take care of your animals!! I will be sure you give them all of the kisses! I am graduating with my associates degree in early childhood education in May of this year, and I am looking for a little something extra as I find a job and what is a better way to do that then spent my time with animals. I have had my far share of problems when it comes to taking care of someone else pets. I have been through the proses of caring for an animal when they are hurt and know the proper way to go about it.
“Katie took such good care of my kitties! She stopped in prior to our scheduled pet sitting to meet my cats, which was much appreciated. She did everything I asked, and made an effort to give my kitties some playtime, even though they were being shy. She provided lots of pics and feedback after each visit, which I love to see, as I worry about my girls when I can’t be home with them. We will definitely be using her services again! ?”


About: When I was 10 I joined a dog training program through my school, that’s where my training experience began. I provide a premium, low-volume dog care experience for owners who want their dog to have more one-on-one attention in a calm home environment. Your dog won’t be just one of many in a crowded space. I keep my care more personal so each dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. I have a big yard for dogs to enjoy, but my indoor space is smaller, so I am very intentional about keeping the number of dogs low. That means I can focus on your dog’s comfort, safety, and overall experience much more closely. This is a great fit for dogs who do better with a quieter setting and for owners who value quality of care over high-volume boarding or daycare. I generally only take one to a few dogs at a time unless they are from the same household. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs. I took care of my childhood dog for 17 years of her long, beautiful life. I have experience working with small senior dogs specifically and I know all the little things that they appreciate. I also have experience with large dogs and can handle very big strong dogs. I also love hiking with dogs so if you have an energetic dog you need to burn off energy I am your guy. I have an acre yard with a fenced in front yard in a nice area. Any dog that boards with me would be treated like my own dog and let out very frequently to go to the bathroom and play outside. I would always remain home with your dog. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m currently a fully remote student so I am fully available. If I board a pet I will be with them full time to make sure they receive the care they deserve. I have a fenced in front yard, and a good amount of unfenced land in the back. My dog is very friendly and would keep your pet great company. He loves dogs and cats. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but would love to give your dog the pet experience and treat them like my own. I live in a nice are and have great access to the woods nearby as well.

About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was young, dog-sitting for neighbors and people I know, and I’ve trained my own dogs as well, including my German Shepherd/Doberman rescue. I adore both big and small dogs and love taking high-energy pups on scenic hikes or runs. I prioritize safety, enrichment, and happiness, and I focus on building trust—dogs naturally seem to fall in love with our time together. I’m available most days for walks, hikes, and runs with your dog (rain or shine).I keep my clients local (within about 20 minutes) so I can stay flexible, dependable, and truly attentive. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so dogs can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I stick closely to each dog’s routine and prioritize safety, calm, and trust. I’m very mindful of both your dog and your home, and I focus on creating a relaxed, happy experience that dogs settle into easily.
About: Throughout my years in high school I was a caretaker of 3 dogs and 2 cats after school everyday of the week. I grew to care and love these pets like they were my own. I had so much fun taking them outside for their daily walks and playing catch around the yard, it was the best job I have ever had because it was loads of fun! Unfortunately, I had to retire my pet sitting job when I went to college back in 2012. Now I work from home and would love to start pet sitting again. I live in a house with a big backyard so it is the perfect place to play catch with them and I live in a residential area that loops around perfect to go for a nice walk too! I am available to start immediately and I am available every day of the week. Looking forward to hearing from you! I work from home so I am able to be home to watch, take them out and play with them most of the day. I work from 3-9pm but have several breaks in between. My yard is partially fenced in but I take safety very seriously when it comes to my own dog, so I will be just as safe with yours as well!
“Emily is sweet and loving. She clearly loves animals and our two pups love her. Emily is dependable and prompt and quickly responds. We are planning to have her back on regular schedule.”

“We were so happy to find Marissa! She was loving, responsible and developed a wonderful rapport with all our cats. She has great instincts and is an excellent communicator. I can’t say enough good things about her!”
