About: Hi! I’m Molytha! It’s nice to meet you, and (hopefully) your furry companion! I grew up with three dogs! Each a different breed, from a small poodle mix all the way to a pitbull! (i love her so much) But despite that, I recently adopted my cat, Rufus! And I love him too! So not only will you be trusting someone who loves animals, but also one that enjoys the best of both worlds! 🐱🐶❤️ I’m a full time student with lots of gaps in between classes! I’m usually done for the day by 4pm at the latest and around 3 at the earliest! I usually have a class from 9:30-10:45am everyday but the times after until 2 I’m free! I have everything my cat needs and I keep a very clean environment for him! Lots of play space and some space for himself as well!

About: As a lifelong pet owner and proud beagle mom, I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your fur baby. Growing up with pets my whole life has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, body language, and what makes each pet feel safe and loved. I treat every dog I care for like my own — with patience, affection, and plenty of playtime. You can expect frequent photo updates and a happy, well-cared-for pup when you get home! As someone who works from home full time, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Your dog will never be left alone for long stretches — I'm always nearby for cuddles, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I structure my work schedule around the pets in my care, ensuring they get regular walks, meals, and plenty of attention. Your pet will feel right at home! I'm comfortable caring for pets in both my home and yours, though I prefer to stay in your home so your pet can remain in their familiar environment with their own toys, bed, and routine. I believe pets are happiest and least stressed when they stay in a space they already know and love. In your home, I treat everything with the utmost respect — leaving it exactly as I found it. If hosting in my home, I ensure a safe, clean, and cozy environment where your pet will feel comfortable and loved. I'm attentive to pet-proofing, keeping hazardous items out of reach, and always supervising playtime. Your pet's safety is my number one priority!

Xinlin did a wonderful job with my cat (and my aquarium). Her demeanor was friendly, her timing was prompt (even though I'm lenient with timing windows), and she exudes her affection for felines. She followed my instructions, got some playtime in, and messaged me about any questions she had rather than act on assumptions like I've had other sitters do. Surprisingly, she took some wonderful photos of my cat in action, something that is hard for even ME to do. I'll definitely using her services again. Thanks Xinlin!

About: I’ve always been an animal person and will treat your fur baby as if they were my own. I can relax with them, walk around your neighborhood with them, play with them- whatever they need. I am available for dog walking and drop-in visits to check in on your dogs, ensuring they have food, water, and plenty of attention while you are away. I will take both, your needs and your best friends’ into account and accommodate the best way I can to ensure I am providing what works for you and your pup.

Stephanie is everything you want in a pet sitter: competant and caring, reliable and kind. My two English Shepherds can be a lot to handle - especially Scout who was a covid puppy nd is still fearful of strangers. Stephanie was happy to take the extra time to gain his trust and now, when I tell him "Stephanie's coming" his eyes light up and his tail beats fast. Molly is a more outgoing dog, but can be opinionated. Stephanie has completely won her over. I recommend her highly!

Rachael takes such good care of my cat. He's so comfortable with her and even gave her nose nuzzles. She gave him his shot like a breeze as always! And also cleaned his ears, very carefully. Another A+ visit!

About: Hi there! I'm Leslie, and dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. With over 10 years of experience on Rover, I've honed my skills in caring for our furry friends. Working from home with a flexible schedule allows me to drop in and take your pups for walks whenever you need me to. Or come stay with them! I offer personalized attention, stimulating walks, and can even administer medication if required. Having boarded dogs for nearly a decade, I'm well-versed in their care needs. While I'm currently unable to board dogs, I'm excited to offer my other services to ensure your pets are happy and healthy. I currently work part time from home. I always offer plenty of exercise, attention, and play time. I are super flexible in scheduling as well. I always keep pups on a leash when outside. I follow the rules and guidelines the owner has requested. The pups have my full attention while they are in my care. Their safety and care is my priority.

About: I am a reliable and athletic University of Toronto graduate with years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals. Having fostered kittens from local animal shelters for years, walking dogs, and caring for my caged rabbit, I am very passionate about proper animal care and giving our furry companions the attention they deserve. Given my athletic background, I enjoy long walks, running, and consistent playtime, so will most definitely keep your pet active. In any situation or for any occasion, whether you are traveling or are simply a busy pet parent, I am a reliable, trustworthy, capable, and professional friend for your furry companion. I specialize in small- to medium-sized dogs and animals, and prioritize understanding their specific needs to an acute degree to ensure that your furry friend returns home safe, stimulated, cuddled, and in high spirits! In regards to your own home, I ensure that your pet remains stimulated, active, and adequately supported throughout the entirety of your time away, which includes walking, feeding, cuddles, playtime, photo/video updates, and any other requested services. With your permission, I am more than happy to collect mail/newspapers, water plants, alternate lights, and ultimately care for your home. My schedule is relatively flexible, and can be adjusted as needed. As summer approaches, I will be available all hours of the day and am happy to donate that time to your pet(s)! My home in Lowell is complete with a grassy backyard for pet relief and private play, and an open-concept floor plan to provide your furry friend with space to explore. My past experiences house sitting prepare me for your needs, from watering plants to alternating lights and, most importantly, caring for your pet. Having raised a small rabbit, I am very aware and conscientious of animal safety, and will ensure your furry friend is kept happy and safe throughout our interactions.

About: I’m a dog lover through and through. I have my own high-energy rescue, Magnum, who keeps me on my toes and has taught me everything about patience, persistence, and unconditional love. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds. Bull Mastiffs, Goldens, Goldendoodles, Huskies, Chihuahuas, Dachshunds, and everything in between. I’m fully comfortable with leash-reactive dogs and strong pullers. My own pup is a serious tugger, so I know exactly how to manage and work with dogs who need a little extra handling. I love going beyond the standard neighborhood loop. If your dog has energy to burn, let’s take them on a hike, find a swimming spot, or go for a solid run. I tailor every outing to your dog’s personality and needs — whether that’s a leisurely sniff-fest or a full-on adventure. Every walk comes with photo updates so you can see your pup living their best life. Your dog is safe, loved, and well-exercised in my hands Available all week, mornings and evenings preferred — I schedule walks early or later in the day to avoid hot pavement and keep your pup safe and comfortable in warm weather. •I always check pavement temp before walks — if it’s too hot for my hand, it’s too hot for paws •Morning and evening scheduling keeps dogs cool and safe •Comfortable handling reactive dogs and strong pullers •Leashed at all times in traffic and public areas •Photo updates every walk so you’re never left wondering

Alyssa always goes above and beyond for our many animals. We recently had a medical emergency with one of our guinea pigs the day before we left for a trip and Alyssa did a wonderful job giving her multiple daily meds and keeping us updated on her condition. She even gave her a much needed bath and gave all of our guinea pigs nail trims! We are so thankful to have a sitter who truly cares about our babies.

Sonya started doing drop-ins with our pups and we are so glad we have her. They are so happy to see her, I absolutely adore getting their report cards. It brings me peace of mind to not have to worry about my dogs while I’m at work. My husband and I have decided she missed her calling as a photographer because she gets the best pictures of our boys. I am so grateful for Sonya and our dogs are too.

Amy is absolutely fabulous, you will not be disappointed in the care she provides your babies. She is punctual, flexible, and ensures each pet gets the individual care and attention they deserve. Amy took care of my babies for the last several months when I started going back into the office, and now that we are moving we wish we could take her with us as she has become one of my dogs favorite people. I got nothing but 5 star service from Amy and so will you. THANK YOU AMY!

This was our first time using Melanie's service, and the first time leaving our 2y old whippet Willow alone for an extended period of time (12 hours). Willow could sense we would be gone for a while and howled for the first 5 minutes after we left (we watched her on our webcam). Melanie came for two one-hour visits and followed my detailed instructions to the letter. I communicated to her Willow's experience when we left and she said she'd be sure to give Willow extra TLC, which she clearly did. Each time I checked the webcam, Willow was lying on or in her bed snoozing. Melanie came at lunchtime for an hour and let Willow out to do her business and then played with her in the backyard, giving her the treats I left on the counter when she left. Melanie came again at supper time, took Willow out back again, and then gave her dinner. She followed my instructions to mix the refrigerated raw food and veggies with the dry kibble and spent extra time with Willow keeping her company. Melanie shared several pictures at each visit and was in continual contact during the day, letting me know her ETA for each visit. We will surely use Melanie again and highly recommend her.
