“I booked sort of last minute and wasn't able to make a meet and greet happen (though Abigale kindly offered) and I felt totally comfortable dropping my Bernie off. I got plenty of updates while away and plan to use them again! Bernie was well cared for! And their home is lovely! Thank you!”

About: Raised on a farm and a dog mom for 17 years, I’ve had animals at the center of my life since childhood. Caring for animals of all kinds is truly in my roots. I spent 13 years as a devoted dog mom to my late dachshund, Boston, and I now have a big, friendly rescue who has been by my side for 4 years. She’s a beautiful mix of Blue Tick Coonhound, American Foxhound, Lab, Bully, German Shepherd, and who knows what else, or as I like to call her, my Supermutt 🩷 Over the years, I’ve rescued dogs, cats, and other animals off the streets, and I’m constantly learning about animal health, behavior, and care so I’m prepared for any pet friend who comes into my home. Special skills: •Senior care: I’ve cared for two dogs into their senior years: my dachshund, Boston, and our family’s extra-large bully breed. I’m comfortable with older dogs, including slower walks, extra comfort, and medication schedules. I’m also comfortable administering injections if needed. •Anxious dogs and puppies: Boston was a very anxious pup, so I know how to help nervous dogs feel safe. I also have experience with puppies. •Training: I taught both of my dogs their basic commands, I’m currently taking a dog training course, and I plan to complete a pet CPR certification. •Dog-friendly home: My own dog is playful, loves to chill, and happily goes along with whatever her fur friends want. Availability: I’m available for drop-ins and walks in the evenings, and I can board low-maintenance dogs during the week since I work full time in an office Monday through Friday but I do take my own dog out in the mornings and again midday. My calendar on Rover will show is open Friday through Sunday and on holidays, but if you’re interested in weekday boarding, I’m happy to discuss it further. Friends, family, and neighbors have always turned to me when they need someone they can truly trust with their pets. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own, with patience, attention, and genuine love. I’m present and engaged during my time at home, so your pet won’t just be waiting around they’ll be played with, walked, and genuinely cared for. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I have a partially fenced yard and a secure ground-anchored long lead for supervised outdoor time, so dogs can enjoy fresh air safely. I also live right next to a large park with trails, making it easy to get in enriching walks and outdoor adventures. My own dog Khaleesi is friendly and social with other dogs, so boarded pets will have a welcoming companion. I treat every animal in my care with the same love and attention I give my own, your pet will feel right at home.

“Daniel was great with the dogs, kept me informed the whole time with pictures, and is a very nice person in general. Will be boarding with him again !!”

“Lissette took amazing care of my two puppies I know an 11 month old and 3 month old German shepherd are a lot to handle but she did an amazing job! Both puppies did not want to leave her house. I will definitely be booking with Lissette again anytime o travel for work!”

Nina R.

“Sarah was amazing! From the beginning, she was very responsive to all of our questions about the booking. Our dog tends to be shy and can sometimes be aggressive with other dogs, but Sarah made it work, and our dog got along with hers right away. She sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. Our dog was very happy during her stay! We will definitely book with Sarah again and highly recommend her as a dog sitter.”

Ada D.

“Taylor and his wife did a great job watching Rex. This is our second time using them to watch our dog. Their house is open and clean. They sent updates and pictures daily and were great at coordinating drop off and pick up times with us. Rex absolutely loves them!”

Eddie & Julie K.

“Jessiana is the perfect pet sitter. My pup always comes home happy and really enjoys his stay. Can always count on her to provide top notch care for my little buddy.”

Vincent R.

“Saktah did a great job taking care of my elderly and rather unfriendly kitty, Koshka, for two weeks while I was vacationing. She was very professional, organized, and caring, kept me updated on how my kitty was adjusting, and showed genuine affection and concern for her. She's driven to get things right and wants your pet to be as comfortable as they can be while you're gone. So if you (like me) have a pet that needs extra love and care, and you'd like to relax during your vacation knowing they're in good hands, go with Saktah. She's got you covered.”

“Thank you for watching Teddy.”

“Patti is the absolute best! She’s very attentive and careful to give Wally the best care she can. She welcomes him like one of her own pets with lots of snuggles and walks and hanging out. I’m so glad I found her and Wally loves staying with her!”

Sandy M.

“Elliott took excellent care of my golden retriever. He responded promptly to all communications, sent me regular updates and photos, and even let her sleep on his bed! He was kind and understanding when I had to shorten my dogs’ stay due to a family emergency.”

Shannon D.

“I've never been away from Nova who is a one year old BC and I needed to find someone that could handle her energy while I was away for a short vacay. I found Jannylza and decided to give her a shot considering the experience she had I knew I could leave Nova and not worry. Jannylza did a great job and kept me informed on Nova's progress which I greatly appreciated. I will definitely use her services again without any hesitation. Thank you Jannylza.”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to Raven (7 female dog), and Miles (8 female cat) I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets, and I would love to provide them with the same love and attention I give my own! I work from home, so I'm able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day and provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I also have a fenced yard where dogs can safely get fresh air and exercise. My home is used to being around both animals and kids. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet needs company, playtime, walks, or just a comfortable and caring place to stay, I will treat them like part of the family!

About: I have taken care of multiple animals, from dogs, cats, hamsters, fish and even birds! I have always loved animals, there is nothing better than loving on an animal. I had fish and hamsters growing up. I have taken care of so many cats for multiple people and walked a ton of dogs for neighbors. I am so comfortable with giving animals medicine, even when they are not thrilled about it. I would love to love on your animals while you are away, have fun with them and make you and your pets feel secure while you are away from each other! I work full time at Baystate Medical Center. Full time for Baystate is only 3 days out of the week so I can be with your pet most of the time, I do work overnight, so I can take, let’s say your dog, out for a walk and feed them and all that good stuff before I work and be back first thing in the morning for when they wake up! Whatever you and your pet is comfortable with I can do. The last thing I would want is for you or them to feel uneasy or uncomfortable so whatever routine they are used to and like is exactly what I will do!

“A friend recommended I use Rover.com and specially Alan and Luis to board my young golden retriever. From start to finish this was an excellent experience for Shilo and myself. The Rover.com app is extremely user friendly and Alan and Luis provided a warm, homey atmosphere for my pup. I had never left her overnight and it was so comforting to get daily picture updates while I was away. Shilo was clearly having the time of her life! I have already booked another stay and will use Alan and Luis and Rover.com for all my boarding needs.”

Nancy C.

“Very kind and wonderful with my 7 month old pup! Kept me updated with pics while I was away for the long weekend! Very grateful for the experience to have gone so well my first time using the app!”

About: I have had medium/large dogs for most of my life. I have taken care of a 35lb Australian Cattle dog as well as 2 pit bulls between 55-70lbs. I've also dog-sat a dog under 10lbs and walked dogs who were 140lbs. I've also worked in home with families who had cats ranging in size and demeanor. I work full time which is why I can only do sitting on weekends. I am looking to do more hobbies and this seems like something fun for me to add. I care for my dog Zelda who's partially blind so I have an awareness for disabled pups. That is also the reason I cannot board dogs in my home. I would likely spend a large portion of my day with the dog I'm taking care of, giving them some kind of walk during the day and making sure to lock up each time I leave the home. I would make sure they are fed on time and receive the same kind of loving care I give my dogs at home.

“Perfect house and couple to watch the dog. He was a little upset to come home because he loved the yard and them so much. She sent lots of photos and had great communication.”

Sarah M.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and genuinely love being around animals. I currently have two golden retrievers and a cat of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I have experience watching both dogs and cats for others and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family — honestly, I like animals more than humans. I work full time, but I’m only a couple minutes from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to come home during the day when needed and can also work remotely at times, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and two friendly dogs to help keep your fur baby company if they enjoy socializing. I can easily crate your dog if needed and am comfortable caring for animals of all breeds and sizes. Pets are welcome on the furniture and bed because we believe they deserve to feel at home and loved while you’re away. My husband and I both have so much love to give, and we’re always happy to provide cuddles, attention, and companionship if your pet enjoys affection.
