House Sitting Lynnfield

“Kerri was absolutely wonderful and truly loves dogs. From the daily walks to the constant photo updates, it was so clear how comfortable and happy our pups were with her — lots of cuddles and snuggles in the pictures. Our house was left in perfect condition, exactly how we left it. We felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in such caring hands and will definitely use her for all future trips. Highly recommend!”

“Jillian is fantastic. Great communication. Lots of updates and photos while we were away. We’ll definitely have her take care of our dog and cat again in the future.”

“We had a great experience leaving our dogs, cat, and home in Annie's care! She was communicative and shared lots of photos but also gave us the freedom to enjoy our time away. The animals seemed to enjoy their time with her and the house was in great shape when we came home. Really all you can ask for! We look forward to using Annie's services again in the future.”

Taryn C.

“Tom was wonderful! Our dog is usually really nervous around strangers and we’re pretty used to coming home to a skinnier version of her but she seemed to really enjoy being around him. Would definitely ask him to look after them again.”

About: I’ve been loving and caring for cats and dogs for over 10 years. Friends, family, and neighbors always rely on me to drop in, feed, and play with their pets while they're away. I have plenty of experience with all ages, from tiny puppies and kittens to sweet seniors. I love keeping pets active with fun enrichment games and can even help teach them new tricks! I know every animal has their own unique personality and needs a different approach, so I’m always happy to learn what works best for your furry friend. I’ll care for them just like they’re my own and send you plenty of cute updates along the way! Since I work a steady 9-5 schedule during the week, your pet will enjoy a wonderful, predictable routine! We kick off our days with an energetic morning walk so they can completely relax, and I love setting them up with fun puzzle toys to keep their minds active. As soon as I'm off the clock, my full attention shifts right back to them for dinner, an evening walk, and plenty of couch cuddles.When the weekend hits, I am completely free! This is when we dive into longer adventures, extra-long walks, and much more enriching activities to really spoil your furry friend. It’s a loving, consistent rhythm that keeps pets feeling safe, happy, and right at home! When I’m staying at or visiting your home, I stick closely to your pet's normal routine to keep them happy and stress-free. During the week, they’ll enjoy a predictable schedule with fun morning and evening walks, plenty of attention, and brain-boosting puzzle toys during the day. On weekends, my schedule is wide open for longer adventures and extra playtime!If your dog loves making new friends, I can also bring my own friendly dog along for supervised playdates! Of course, this is completely up to your choice and comfort level. No matter what, I focus on keeping your pet safe, loved, and properly fed while ensuring your house is totally secure. I’ll send you plenty of cute photo updates along the way so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in great hands!

“Asia took wonderful care of my Yorkie over the course of two days this week. She is friendly, diligent, professional, communicative, and very kind. Your pet could not possibly be in a better hands. She has a great love for animals and it shows in her work.”

“Michael was extremely professional, communicative and responsive when booking on short notice. It was our first time leaving the newest rescue. He did a great job with the two dogs. We felt very comfortable when leaving the house and could enjoy our evening.”

About: I have limited professional experience in animal care but I have nearly a lifetime's worth of practical experience and pure love for all animals. Between having pets of my own and caring for others' fur-friends, I'm always the "DD" or "designated dog-duty" person. Since I've been able to walk to my neighbors houses or drive to friends and family members' homes I've often been relied on to check-in on, walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. Along with years of experience caring for pets in the home, I have volunteer experience bathing, blow-drying, and combing dogs of all ages and sizes. I've experience caring for dogs (including senior dogs), cats, puppies, kittens, turtles, hamsters, bearded dragons, and sugar gliders. Caring for others is something that comes naturally to me. I'm currently a graduate student aspiring to work in the mental health field with children and adolescents. However, as much as I love working with humans, I also love working with animals and pet-sitting/walking has become a side-gig that fills my cup and my wallet! I'm a quick-learner and willing to follow any special care instructions to accommodate your pet's needs. I'm currently a part-time graduate student so I have plently of time to walk and/or care for your furry friends! I have a lot of open availability and flexible scheduling during summer months so please reach out with any scheduling or timing questions. Safety is my top priority, for your pets, your home, and myself. I will carefully follow all care instructions, whether they're for routines inside the home, walks, medications, or any special needs. I'm attentive, observant, and adaptable to each pet's unique personality and always allow them to set the pace as we build trust and become comfortable with one another. I'm very patient with shy, fearful, or timid pets and can adapt to ensure introductions are low-stress and with your approval, can incorporate treats, toys, or gentle play to help them feel safe and confident. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed at all times and remain aware of our surroundings to ensure a safe and fun experience. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in safe, caring hands!

“Catherine was an incredible help with our dog and our sassy cat! She kept us updated with frequent messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she cared for both our pets and our home as if they were her own. Highly recommend!”

About: I got my own dog (Cavapoo) in 2020 and spent a substantial amount of time training him when he was a puppy. I have also done overnight dog sitting for a family I regularly babysit for. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! 😊 I am currently a school-based mental health therapist. Half of the week, I work remotely. I am looking for house/pet sitting roles that allow me to go to work (when in-person) for a few hours and then come back to be with your pet the rest of the afternoon/night. I am usually totally free on the weekends!! I tend to spoil pets (in a good way)! I give them lots of attention and love. I love cuddling with pets, taking them on walks, and giving them treats. I am also very attuned and consistent with any predetermined schedules or routines that you may have for your pet

“Sydney took good care of our pups while we were gone! She was available to help us on short notice when another Rover canceled on us at the last minute. We will definitely consider her again on our next trip!”

Mindy T.

“Rebecca watched my two dogs this weekend and was wonderful. She took great care of them and bonded with them quickly! She was responsive with communication with me and sent regular updates and pictures of the dogs. We felt very comfortable with her care of our dogs and will be asking her again to watch them!”

About: I've been pet sitting and house sitting for friends and coworkers for over 10 years. After taking about 2 years off to focus on work, I'm excited to be back and spending time with furry friends again! I have experience caring for dogs ranging from young pups to 16-year-old seniors and am comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and maintaining your pet's normal routine. I have also cared for a handful of cats! Since I'm unable to have pets of my own due to housing rules, I truly appreciate the opportunity to care for yours. (The chowchow pictured is my very first fur nephew!) My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away, and to give you peace of mind through reliable, attentive care and regular updates. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 I’m currently work semi-remotely for a Pharma company. I do have to go in once a month but I have a pretty flexible schedule which allows me to pursue something that I enjoy. My goal is to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routines and environment while their owners are away. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walk and exercise routines, medication instructions (if needed), and any other specific care preferences. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from young, energetic dogs to senior pets who may need extra attention and patience. I also have experience caring for pets in both suburban neighborhoods and busy urban settings, including downtown Boston. Safety is always my top priority, and I stay vigilant during walks and outings to ensure both the pet and I remain safe and secure.

About: I have taken care of my friends' pets and they got many updates of their babies from me with pictures! I have taken care of reptiles, insects, birds, cats, dogs, and even chickens. I'm very flexible to scheduling pet care and taking care of walks/feedings with AM and PM needs. Just need a heads up to schedule it in at least 2 days! I have a certificate in Pet CPR and First Aid through ProTrainings. I also have a reliable car to transport pets in case of emergencies.

“Jupiter was available on very short notice to come over and hang out with our dog for the evening while we were out. Our pup was very happy to have the company!”

About: Over the years, I have been gathered extensive knowledge about animal husbandry. Along with my coursework at Essex Tech in the Companion Animals program, I also worked for the school as a dog trainer and dog, cat, and rodent groomer for 2 years. I later worked as a dog trainer and dog daycare worker for 2 years! It was my honor to teach countless clients and manage large playgroups of dogs. Recognizing and understanding dog behavior, body language, animal handling, first aid, nutrition, (and much more!) is second nature to me at this point in my journey! These skills give me the comfort I need to know I can provide the best, most informed care to every beloved pet I work with! I work through a flexible, positivity based approach, prioritizing client and animal trust above all else. I understand that every animal needs different methods to feel (and act) their best—and I mean EVERY animal! I have experience in reptiles, avians, rodents, and cats along with dogs, owning and/or working with all consistently throughout the years! I hope we can work together to help your animal family members have the greatest time, even when you’re away! I’m currently teaching part time, so I have extra time every day to care for your best friend(s)! My work schedule is 1:30-5:00pm M-F every day that school is in session. Additionally, I am typically available every weekend. My Rover calendar stays up to date, but please note I typically don’t book out more than 2 months in advance! That said, feel free to inquire about any date, some exceptions may be made! Safety and comfort is of utmost importance to me. I know we all have those weird habits we do to make our pet comfortable, and I am willing to do what will help your friend while you’re away! As a nervous and reactive dog owner and someone with extensive experience with all sorts of animal personalities (Really! At daycare, we had over 100 dogs daily, and during my schooling, I cared for over 30 different animals!), I may even have some extra tips to help your pet feel safer. I am also Pet First Aid and CPR Certified, and I am no stranger to utilizing those skills in the field when needed.

“Christine was very sweet and intuitive with our pets, especially our senior dog who needs a lot of care. She went above and beyond.”

Alissa C.

“Ailish is a wonderful sitter!! She took excellent care of our two dogs and home. She is super nice, friendly, and easy to communicate with. I very highly recommend her and will have her sit for us again in the future.”

About: I've had pets my whole life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I treat every pet like they're my own and understand how important it is for owners to feel at ease while they're away. I've helped friends and family with their pets over the years, and I know every animal has their own personality and comfort level. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind. Since I work from home, pets are rarely left alone and receive plenty of supervision, attention, and potty breaks throughout the day. Whether your pet is working on potty training, crate training, or following a specific routine, I’m happy to help keep things consistent while they’re in my care. I provide a safe, clean, calm, and smoke-free environment. While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs receive regular walks, potty breaks, and exercise based on their individual needs and energy levels. For privacy and safety reasons, I don’t offer home tours.

“Jasmine, you're awesome. Thanks for taking such great care of our home and pup for our nearly 2 week vacation. Your communication and care are much appreciated! We look forward to working with you again in the future. If you are looking for a wonderful reliable pet sitter Jasmine is a great choice!”
