About: Hi there! I've been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. I'm 28 years old and have spent my entire life caring for pets, from from raising playful puppies and kittens to supporting them through their senior years. That lifelong experience has taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and unique needs. What sets me apart is the care and attention I give to both pets and their owners. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires a great deal of trust (from personal experience), so I make communication a priority. You can expect regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing and can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their familiar routine, I'm happy to adapt my care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I'm patient with young pets who are still learning, gentle with senior pets who may need extra time and attention, and committed to treating every animal with the same love and respect I would give my own. I'm also preparing to move to London to begin graduate school in the fall as well, which means I have a flexible schedule over the next few months. I'm excited to use this time caring for pets, meeting wonderful families, and providing dependable, loving care whenever you need an extra helping hand. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel comfortable, cared for, and love and for you to feel completely confident that they're in good hands. Pet care is something I intentionally make time for in my schedule. Since I'm preparing to move to London for graduate school, I have a flexible routine over the next few months that allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. Whether your pet needs an early morning walk, a midday check-in, or evening companionship, I'm happy to work with your schedule. I believe consistency is important, so I'll do my best to maintain your pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable, happy, and at ease while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I know that every pet is happiest when they can stick to their normal schedule, so I'll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any household routines. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I'll make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and outdoor time, and always prioritize their safety. I also understand that every animal has different comfort levels, so I'll take the time to earn their trust and let them interact at their own pace. Communication is an important part of my care. I'll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention while you're away.

About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, and I’m especially drawn to shy, timid, or nervous pets who may need extra patience. I have a calm, non-intimidating approach and enjoy earning an animal’s trust through kindness, affection, and consistency. I’m comfortable walking, bathing, brushing and grooming pets, and animals in my care are treated like family and welcome throughout my home. I’m also very comfortable with senior pets and understand that they may need a slower pace, extra attention, and lots of reassurance. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals is something I truly enjoy. I love spending time with them, whether we’re walking, playing, relaxing together, or just keeping each other company. I’m happy to give each pet the time and attention they need and will follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I can he as active as you want me to be, including hiking, going to parks, anywhere you like! I can also stay at home if your dog has low energy or special needs. Pets are welcome throughout my home and are treated like part of the family. I especially enjoy caring for shy, timid, or nervous pets who may need extra patience. I have a calm, non-intimidating approach and give them the time and space they need to feel safe and learn to trust me. I’m comfortable walking dogs and helping with bathing and basic grooming, and I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, exercise, medications, routines, and house rules. I do have a fenced yard and would never leave them alone.
“Kayla took such great care of my pup ❤️ Kayla was wonderful to work with - always quick to respond, polite & friendly, and my pup loved her so I knew he was in good hands!”

About: Feeding, entertaining, and walking pets. Friends and family have trusted me in caring for their pets like my own when needed. I have had pets of all kinds growing up and have a passion for caring for dogs, cats and small animals such as guinea pigs. I currently work full remote and have flexibility to add in drop ins during the work day. I also have availability during weekends if you’re taking a trip, for multiple drop ins a day as needed. I currently have two cats who are my best friends. I have grown up around dogs and have dog sat for many years for friends and family. Walking and pop ins are the best part of my day.
“Shea was wonderful with our two dogs! She has a nice calm energy that is just what they needed while we were away. We won't hesitate to call her again to care for our precious pups!”

About: I've taken care of cats my entire life! Since I was little I always had cats along with 1 dog. I just recently handled kitty hospice with my cat and managed medications 2x a day. I have taken care of my friends dogs several times and consider myself their auntie!! I love all animals and would to meet and help all the animals I can I am working full time but am looking to help out majority of the time on weekends along with Monday and Fridays. I am completely available on Saturdays, open morning afternoon and evening Sundays, Mondays and Fridays after 4pm. I currently have 3 cats in my own with endless amount of beds and toys scattered. They have their own condos and beds. I would make sure to ensure every animal is safe and secure. Check all the windows and doors and do a head count before leaving. I will always make sure the animals is safe and okay!
About: Although I have less experience in dog care in comparison to taking care of cats, I live an active lifestyle and am fully capable of going on walks with any dog’s typical walk regime. As a student who’s home for the summer, I have a flexible schedule I dedicate to spending time with my or any of my friends’ pets. I care for pets by referring to the owners and following any procedures based on the pet’s needs. I’m capable of basic maintenance and problem solving.
“Melissa was extremely professional, responded quickly and came through in a pinch. She went above and beyond to help me out with my dog and ai would use her again in a heartbeat. Unfortunately, my work circumstances changed so what I thought would be an on-going service with her turned out to only be needed once. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”


“Erin was great with my dog Willow. At the meet and greet she was professional and personable. Willow has a little trouble with meeting strangers for the first time and Erin handled it perfectly. Willow warmed up to her on the first walk and adapted to Willow’s initial shyness by feeding her from under our side table by the couch where she likes to hide. She took excellent photos and kept me informed. I highly recommend Erin.”

“I can't say enough good things about my dog walker! They are incredibly reliable and always treat my pup with such care and affection. It's clear my dog loves their time together, and I have peace of mind knowing my furry friend is in great hands!”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I've cared for all types of dogs from dachshunds to pitbulls; toy poodles to great danes. No dog is too excitable or too strong to handle. I am an active person and will make sure your dog gets lots of exercise. My husband and I like to make sure all pups end the day happy and tired. With a large yard on a quiet street, you pet will feel right at home here. I work from home every day aside from Tuesdays and Wednesdays, with a lenient job that I can walk away from when needed. I can take the dog out at any time of day, and have a long lunch break for walks, and plenty of time in the evening for play. I've sat many pets in their own home, and have been able to learn how they behave in their own environment and adapt accordingly. Respecting people's spaces is a top priority, and I always make sure to leave a home exactly as I found it. I have a large home with plenty of outdoor space at the end of a quiet cul da sac. The back yard is secluded and very safe. We do not keep food out, and we make sure no plants that can harm animals ever enter the home. The neighborhood is quiet and safe with very few cars. Most all other dogs in the area have interacted with dogs we have babysat, and are very friendly and well trained.
About: Dogs have and will always be a huge part of my life. We got our first family dog when I was just 3 years old and the rest is history. My husband Jack is extremely passionate about animals as well and is my partner in all of this so you get two dog sitters for the price of one. Between the two of us your pet will get so much love, cuddles & exercise. We guarantee a level of attention and care that I feel confident your pet won’t get anywhere else; between this and Rover taking it’s fee our prices might be on the high side but they reflect our level of personalized and professional level of care. I also just want to add that our love for dogs extends to all animals so cats etc are all welcome to come hang with us :) Important Note: if you are reaching out for house sitting my husband and I only take those if we both are allowed to stay the night. We prefer to do this for safety as well as enabling the best care possible for your pet. Your pets will be my top priority & my main focus when they stay with us! I feel pretty confident that they will get more quality time, attention & lovin with me then any other pet sitter! I have a smoke free home and do not have any dogs currently living at my house so your pets will be my only focus! Also a child free home!

About: I've taken care of my family's dogs since I was a child, but I've especially loved the joy of having my own pets over the last 5 years. I've trained and grown two healthy fur babies of my own, and have loved helping dozens more. Would love to help you care for your fur baby when & in the way you need it! I currently have a flexible full time job where I'm used to driving all over. Would love to have moments making your dog's day throughout my day! I am committed to making everyone have a good & safe experience, to the best of my ability - your pup, you as the pet parent, and myself!

Dereck did a great job with our 2 dogs. He is a very good communicator, he's punctual, and our dogs love him! He sent some great pictures and videos so we were able to see what good hands they were in (they had so much fun!). We will definitely have him care for our pups again and we highly recommend him!

Gina is fantastic! She is a quick and clear communicator and excellent with my two pitbulls. I reach out to her whenever I am in the Springfield MA area and need a walker for my girls. She is on time and always fills out a rover card and sends pictures. Will absolutely book again!
