About: At a very early age I fell in love with dogs. I begged my parents for a puppy growing up which resulted in my family adopting Prada our now family dog! My mom and I went through all of the necessary training to have a very well behaved dog. In some of these trainings we moved on to more advanced training classes. With my love of dogs and my knowledge in training your dogs will be in great company and a safe environment! I am home in Massachusetts for a couple of months and would love to use my time with dogs!! I’ve been looking for something part time and have a love for dogs!

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 15, when I became responsible for my first dog. At 20, I started offering dog boarding in my home in Brazil, hosting over 10 dogs with love and dedication. Currently, I live in the United States in a small apartment with my husband, where pets are not allowed. For this reason, I provide pet care exclusively at the client’s home. I discovered Rover as a way to reconnect with the joy of being around dogs and cats, whether for a weekend or an entire month. This experience has been amazing! My husband and I care for the pets together, ensuring they receive twice the love, attention, and playtime. We both work 8 to 9 hours a day during the week, but we make it a priority to exercise and spend quality time with the dogs before and after work. On weekends, we have full availability to care for your furry friend. I do not host at home. We follow all the rules of the clients' homes and the animals' routines. We try our best to exercise the dogs by walking or spending time in the yard.

About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve been raised with dogs my entire life, and I also have three years of hands-on experience at a doggie boarding and daycare facility. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all types, from reactive dogs to high-energy pups. I understand the importance of positive reinforcement and am experienced in meeting the dietary and exercise needs of dogs. What Sets Me Apart: What truly sets me apart is my genuine compassion for animals. I offer a personalized experience, whether it’s hiking to burn off energy, providing calm and comfort for reactive dogs, or ensuring senior pups get the special care they need. My expertise in stimulating high-energy dogs and my knowledge of their specific needs makes me the perfect choice for your dog’s next adventure or stay! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I make sure to schedule time for walks, play sessions, and one-on-one attention for each animal I care for. Whether it’s getting up early to take a dog on a hike or spending extra time with a shy cat to build trust, I always prioritize their needs. I’m flexible and able to adapt to different schedules, ensuring pets get the love and care they deserve, no matter what else is going on in my day. In my home, I create a comfortable, pet-friendly environment where animals can thrive. For dogs, that means daily hikes, interactive play sessions, and plenty of cuddle time. I make sure each dog gets the exercise and attention they need to feel happy and secure. For cats, I adjust the atmosphere to their personality—whether it’s quiet, cozy space for a shy cat or active playtime to keep a kitten entertained. I’m also experienced with dietary needs, allergies, and administering medications if necessary. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it as an extension of my own. I make sure their routines are kept intact, from feeding schedules to favorite activities. I believe in providing consistent care that allows them to feel safe and comfortable, just as they would in their own home. Whether it’s a dog who loves to hike or a cat who needs extra TLC, I’m committed to offering personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m also skilled at handling reactive animals, training, and ensuring each pet’s emotional well-being is prioritized. My years of experience with both kittens and senior cats, combined with my ability to train and manage high-energy dogs, makes me stand out. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m a pet caretaker who goes above and beyond to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away.

About: Hello! A little about me: I have several years of caring for dogs and cats both personally and professionally, starting around age 11 with Oliver my first dog. I now have Leilah, my extremely lovable Labrador, and Lance my old boy who is a Coonhound and a retired service dog, they both get along with everyone! I also have 2 sons who both share my love of dogs! We have cats but they are used to dogs and tend to keep to themselves anyway. They are generally tolerant of all dogs, as long as they are friendly and do not chase them. Prior to COVID19 I worked full time in a dog daycare and boarding facility, so I have both personal and professional dog handling and grooming experience. I enjoy spending my time caring for animals, and doing my part in keeping them, and their families happy and healthy! Any dog in my care is treated like my own. We look forward to caring for your furry family member! I am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to care for your dog, they will rarely be left alone and will have plenty of potty breaks and outside time! I have a fenced in yard, so as long as your dog does not have a history of hopping fences they are free to roam and lounge in the yard. If your pet is a fence hopper I will only bring them out on a leash.

About: My husband and I have a lot of love for animals, but we have none of our own yet so we have plenty of love to give to your furry kids! We live in a good area with a park, but if your pets enjoy the indoors more, we have a spacious home for them to roam around in and plenty of movies to watch with them! First timers with me will receive complimentary puppy portraits!! We work nearby with flexible hours so with a good amount of notice, we can make almost anything work! I work early mornings and get home by noon. My husband works a 9-5 close to home and is available to be home in an instant. I volunteered at animal shelters for years and have tons of experience! I moved to Massachusetts so I recently started my journey here! We also live near a dog park!

About: I have 2 dogs of my own and foster puppies and adult dogs as well. We also have chickens. I love animals of all types and understand how difficult it can be to find someone you trust with their care. I am a Registered Nurse and caring for animals comes as natural to me as caring for people. Caring for your pets gives me the flexibility to spend time with them but also be available as a mom. My daughter loves animals and is very helpful and loving. I have a flexible work schedule and mostly work from home. I am able to interact while working and provide frequent potty breaks and extra attention as needed. I do feed separately to avoid food aggression issues which can sometimes happen in new environments. I have 2 dogs of my own and a fenced in yard. There is plenty of space to run and play and also lounge and nap! We’d love to know what your dog's typical routine is at home as well as any behaviors (food/toy aggression) or quirks we should be aware of. I will do my best to accommodate any special needs. Please let us know if they are on any medications or have any health issues. I DO NOT accept dogs that are aggressive, excessive barkers, non-house trained, destructive, or have severe separation anxiety. All dogs who stay in our home must be well socialized, healthy (i.e. not sick with any contagious diseases that could be passed onto humans or other dogs) and up to date on their vaccines and flea/tick preventatives. Required vaccinations: Rabies Distemper Bordetella (kennel cough)

About: I’m a dog lover at heart with 2 Australian Shepherds of my own! I’m currently enrolled to become a certified dog trainer - which I can then use in addition to my dog walking skills. Im currently working Tuesdays through Fridays with weekend availability (as well as after 6pm depending on the days.) With enough notice, I may also do holidays. I have a large yard to let my two fur-babies run around and explore. My dogs are also leash trained, but they wouldn’t accompany me on my walks with my new friends.
