I provide reliable, attentive care in a calm, positive environment, making sure every walk is safe, engaging, and stress-free. You can trust that your dog will be treated with patience, respect, and the same care I’d give my own.
“Amy took good care of our Kitty while we were away and sent updates and photos throughout the stay. Kitty was happy to see us when we got home and seemed well cared for. We appreciated her help!”
“Leslie was the best communicator and cat sitter during my time away from Louie. She kept me posted on his activities. I was excited to see daily pics of him. She earned my trust and I will go with her again and again and again. Thanks! Renee & Louie”
About: As a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of experience, I’ve dedicated my life to understanding and caring for dogs and small animals of all kinds. From playful Pomeranians to loyal Golden Retrievers—and even the occasional curious cat—I’ve built lasting bonds through trust, compassion, and consistency. Certified in Canine CPR through Active Paws, I bring both heart and safety to every service I offer. My loyal companion, a spirited Miniature Pinscher named Stanley Luke, is often right by my side. At Chanley’s K9 Kreation, I provide trusted in-home care, feeding, and walking for dogs and cats, as well as pickup and drop-off for vet appointments and yard cleanup for dog waste—so your pets stay happy, healthy, and cared for. A structured daily pet care routine includes regular feeding, exercise, grooming, and playtime to ensure your pet stays healthy and happy. Consistent walks, bathroom breaks, and interactive activities help provide mental and physical stimulation, while quiet time and affection build trust and comfort. With me, your pet will be safe, happy, and well cared for. I strive to ensure that every animal feels loved and has fun in my care. For references or inquiries, please contact Chanleysk9kreation.
About: Hello! I’m Liz, a K-1 teacher with a passion for understanding the unique, non-verbal personalities of our beloved pets. With extensive personal experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and fish, I know that animal communication is all in the details—from a swish of a tail to a specific reptilian posture. I am responsible, nurturing, and looking to fill my extra time by providing capable, knowledgeable care for your "fur kids." Whether it’s high-energy dog walking or keeping your scaled/finned friends on their specific schedules, your pets will be safe, loved, and thoroughly engaged. I am currently working as a teacher in the afternoon and have morning and evening availability M-F for dog walking, daily check-in's, house sitting and more. As a K-1 teacher, I specialize in "reading the room" and picking up on non-verbal cues, a skill that allows me to provide an exceptional level of observant, intuitive care for your pets. My approach is rooted in safety and structured communication; I don’t just "stop by," but instead actively monitor body language—from a cat’s tail swish to a reptile’s posture—to ensure every animal is thriving. You can expect detailed updates after every visit regarding behavior, appetite, and health, giving you total peace of mind while you're away. Whether I’m double-checking heat and humidity settings for your exotic pets or maintaining hyper-vigilance during dog walks, I treat your home and "fur kids" with the highest level of professional responsibility, ensuring your space is secure and your pets feel safe, seen, and loved.

“Jamie is great! As her profile shows she has a great understanding of cats. She knows how to approach them, their behaviors, and what to look out for. My cats warmed up to her instantly. Her knowledge is apparent in her notes which are detailed. She was able to get even better pictures of them than me. She was easy to work with and has an overall bright personality. I would definitely book with her again and recommend her to other pet parents.”
“Abby did a wonderful job. We have a high needs cat and she did a great job taking care of him. Our other cat is very shy and Abby made sure to find her every day and make sure she was eating her food. I highly recommend Abby!”
“Daniel cared for my two cats today, and I am impressed! My cats are on two ends of the personality spectrum. One is young and friendly/affectionate, and one is older and, well, not that friendly. Daniel shared a photo of the older one sitting right next to him! She has actually never done that with a "new" person. He was prompt, communicative, responsible, and dependable. We would not hesitate for a moment to hire him again for any pet care needs. Meeting him has taken a later of stress off any future trips we book, and minimized the stress for our cats too, who clearly liked him better than they like us! Thanks Daniel!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Methuen
Melanie was wonderful from the start. She was in contact with us shortly after booking and then again before we left. She kept us updated everyday while we were away and made sure our cats were taken care of. Our experience with her was great and we will definitely use her again!
Emily was an amazing cat sitter! She came to our home twice a day for our 5 day trip. Our cats were very well taken care of! One of our cats, Katie, required special medication and Emily administered her medication perfectly. Our cats were very healthy and in great spirits when we returned. We felt very comfortable and was able to enjoy our trip after leaving our fur babies with Emily. She was very communicative via Rover app and text and sent us photos and updates every day. We will be rebooking with Emily again soon!!!!
I asked Caitlyn to care for my two cats while I was away for a week at Thanksgiving time. Sadly, I had to euthanize one of them before my trip. She refunded the "second pet" fee quickly and without hesitation. For the one cat she did care for, she did a great job. She provided daily updates and photos. I am particularly - maybe obsessively - concerned that the litter box is cleaned daily, and the floor around it swept and vacuumed. When I returned I found all as I had hoped. She brought in mail and packages, put the garbage out on garbage day, and took the time to ask where the additional garbage and recycling bags were so she could change them out. Perhaps most kindly, she gave the litter box an extra clean on her last evening, in case I didn't get back home on time - which, given the chaos the weather created in air travel immediately after Thanksgiving, I did not. I would certainly use her again.
Ericka was great: she won Percy over and maintained daily schedule and tasks and kept us regularly informed, going above and beyond when we forgot to replace the battery in the time-release feeder! First time with Rover and Ericka and it was such a relief to entrust our kitty to such good care, now that he's on twice a day thyroid pills. Thank you!
Ann Marie was an amazing sitter for our two kitties! My first time using a sitter but she made the process seamless and gave us peace of mind. She even took time to take photos and give them treats. Couldn’t have asked for more and will definitely rebook next time we leave for vacation.
