Thanks for the help. Vassu was very prompt in messaging about Yoshi's walks and how he was doing. Was very good with the Yoshi. Always on time and if there was any delay she texted me immediately. Thanks for taking such good care of Yoshi.

Shayla has walked my dog Yogi twice now, and she has been great each time! Our meet and greet went really well, and when it rained on their walk, Shayla took the time to clean Yogi's paws and dry him off. I loved seeing the photos from their walk and playtime on the Rover Card. I look forward to using her again!

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my deep dedication to providing personalized care tailored to each pet's needs. I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention and patience. I excel at establishing a safe, nurturing environment that helps pets feel comfortable and loved in their owners' absence. Beyond standard pet care, I bring exceptional attention to detail, ensuring pets maintain their routines, whether it's administering medication, feeding on a precise schedule, or providing stimulating activities to keep them happy and healthy. What truly makes my services unique is that I view pet care as not just a job but an opportunity to serve the community. As a mother of two teenagers, I involve my children in learning how to responsibly care for animals under my guidance. This helps them understand the value of compassion, empathy, and giving back to others by treating pets with the same love and respect we would our own family members. Together, we aim to provide peace of mind to pet owners by treating their furry family members as our own. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily and weekly routine. As someone who juggles multiple responsibilities, I prioritize creating a structured schedule that allows me to provide attentive, consistent care to the pets I look after. Each day, I plan my tasks around the specific needs of the pets in my care, ensuring their feeding, walks, playtime, and any special requirements—like medication or grooming—are handled on time. My flexibility and time-management skills allow me to accommodate even last-minute requests, providing peace of mind to pet owners with busy lives. Incorporating pet care into my routine has also been an invaluable way to teach my children about responsibility and compassion. They often assist me with simple tasks under my supervision, giving them a sense of community involvement while allowing me to maintain a high standard of care for each pet. This integration of pet care into my daily life isn’t just a responsibility—it’s a passion that aligns perfectly with my desire to make a positive impact on both pets and their owners. Caring for pets in their own homes is a responsibility I take very seriously. I strive to provide a seamless experience that maintains the pet’s usual routine and ensures their comfort and safety in a familiar environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I begin by thoroughly understanding their specific needs, including feeding schedules, exercise preferences, playtime activities, and any medical or behavioral requirements. I ensure that every detail is followed precisely to keep pets happy and stress-free. During each visit, I prioritize interactive care, whether that’s engaging in their favorite games, taking them for walks, or simply providing companionship. For pets requiring additional attention, such as seniors or those with special needs, I bring patience and care to ensure they remain calm and comfortable. I also treat my clients’ homes with the utmost respect. I maintain a clean and organized space, follow any provided instructions, and ensure the home is secure when I leave. My goal is to not only care for the pets but also provide peace of mind to their owners, knowing their furry family members and home are in trusted hands.

Paul has been a great asset to getting the stimulation my German shepherd was bred to need! Both of my dogs respond so well to him. They’re very Intuitive dogs that instantly pick up on someone’s nervousness or lack of confidence - but Paul comes in with a confident but clam nature that they sense immediately. Both my dogs have struggled with reactivity - but have had no issues with him.

About: I have grown up with dogs & cats and began taking care of my family, friends and coworkers pets when I was in high school. I began house sitting and walking and when I got pups of my own I continued with walking and drops in. I’ve worked with seniors, puppies, and larger dog breeds like Great Pyrenees, Great Dane, and Newfoundland’s but have a special place in my heart for dachshunds. I work full time but I am available most days and times with proper notice. Early mornings and late nights are welcome. I am usually available during holidays as well. Depending on the need of your pet I will be able to accommodate most asks. Crating, training, hiking, giving medications, giving baths, meal time, cuddle time or anything else you would need I can help with!

About: Hi! My name is Rilie, and I’m a reliable, caring pet sitter with experience caring for a wide range of animals. I have cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with feline routines, behavior, and the patience cats need to feel comfortable and safe. I’ve also pet sat for neighbors with dogs, providing walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. In addition, I have lifelong experience caring for rodents and reptiles, making me comfortable with pets that have more specialized care needs. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize clear communication, consistency, and updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. I’d love to care for your pets and give them the attention they deserve! I’d love to meet you and your pets—feel free to reach out with any questions! Hi! I’m Rilie, I’m 24 years old, and I’m currently taking time to build flexible, meaningful part-time work while preparing to go back to school to pursue a career working with animals. Caring for pets has always been a big part of my life, and pet sitting is something I truly enjoy and take seriously. Because I’m not working a traditional full-time schedule right now, I have flexible availability and can be attentive, reliable, and accommodating to different routines and needs. I love getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Working with animals is more than just a job for me—it’s the path I’m working toward long-term, and I treat every pet I care for with patience, respect, and genuine love. I provide care in my clients’ homes, allowing pets to remain in their familiar environment and routines. During visits, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter or habitat cleaning, playtime, and any special needs. I take time to make pets feel comfortable and safe and adjust my approach based on their personality and energy level. While I’m unable to offer care in my own home, I’m happy to provide drop-in visits and house sitting, and I always prioritize consistency, patience, and clear communication. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away.

About: My very first job was working with dogs. I’ve always had a passion for the fur babies! I have a 5 year old pit bull who absolutely loves making new pup friends and a 12 year old daughter who adores all animals! I work Monday-Friday between 9am-5pm but make sure your fur baby is tended to before and after work just as I do my own :) I have a fenced in yard which helps make sure they have lots of space for running around. During the daytime hours while I’m away, the dogs are kept safe in separated areas of the house but are always left with a comfy bed, food and toys. The dogs have free roam of the house during the day and are either kenneled (if crate trained) or separated when not being watched directly. Dogs are let out in the fenced in yard multiple times a day and are given tons of attention :)

About: I have an indoor orange cat which I adore. I have had several large dogs-german shepherds are my favorite! I can house sit and take care of your cats or one dog when you're away. I have volunteered at animal shelters. One was a cat shelter where I fed and cleaned cages and gave the kitties some play time, the other was walking pitbull dogs at the shelter. If you need someone to take care of your best friend , call me! Thanks! I am available now anytime to house sit or drop in for 30 minute visits or 60 minute visits before work, lunchtime or evenings. Whatever you need. Thank you. I will treat your pets like my own-they're family. I will treat them with respect and care. I'll give them lots of attention. Thank you

About: Compassionate, reliable, and experienced pet lover who ensures safety, comfort, and joy for pets. Provides personalized care, detailed updates, and builds trust with owners. I’ve been pet sitting for 6 years both dogs and cats, in all different sizes. Working a flexible full time job at Allen University so I can adjust my schedule to you and your family’s needs. Will not be here for thanksgiving or Christmas. I prefer caretaking at a client’s home so the pet is more comfortable in their environment, and I can accommodate to their needs and yours. It also gives the opportunity to use their toys at home and keep them entertained.

About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish etc. My biggest joke is I take care of other people’s pets so I don’t bring home any other animals. I own 3 cats myself. I work with all breeds and love what I do. I take care of all pets as if they were my own. I work full time at WestMass ElderCare. I am at work for 8 hours. . On my breaks I love giving pets and kisses to the fur babies! I own a 1 bedroom condo. I board on a case to case basis. Your dog must be ok with a leash, somewhat smaller space and be ok ignoring cats. (I own 3)
