About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have been relied on to take care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. I love taking them on adventures and I have some grooming experience. I am currently working a 9-5 from Monday to Friday but am available and have complete flexibility on Saturdays and Sundays for in house boarding. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I rely on the leash for security to bring the dogs out for many walks. I don’t have any pets so all of my attention will be focused on your pet.
“Johanna took care of our 2 labs and 2 cats for a weekend. She is a very responsible sitter, communicates regularly and has a good understanding of the animals and their needs. We got daily feedback and were very happy that our dogs got some great exercise.”
About: I grew up around dogs and have spent most of my life caring for them. I regularly walk and watch my sister’s French Bulldog, and I’ve also dog-sat and house-sat for families with a Bernedoodle and a Golden Retriever. I love spending time outside with dogs and am always happy to go on multiple walks a day. I believe plenty of playtime, attention, and affection make for the best experience, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets a lot of attention and consistency while you’re away. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine, whether that’s early mornings, evenings, or multiple visits a day. I grew up with multiple cats and am very comfortable caring for them, along with dogs as well. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I always follow your instructions closely to keep their routine consistent. I prioritize a calm, safe environment and make sure pets feel secure and cared for. I’m also happy to send regular updates so you know how they’re doing.
About: My family has always had at least one dog, at times, three. Whether it was caring for the first (Lavender) as she grew old, the next (Ollie) after he came down with cancer, or helping with two of the current guys with PTSD (Louie & Hal), I've got plenty of experience with a variety of canine needs beyond simple basics/ I'm currently in the off-season of my main job, so I have plenty of time to spend with our furry friends! Usually, I walk my parents' dogs once when I get up and again in the evening when they start to get restless. While I live with my parents, I can't offer their space for sitting, but their dogs will be happy to join us on adventures if yours need a friend! They each have their own crates at home (although they love to share), and I'm ready to adapt to whatever your pet's expectations may be!
About: Growing up I had multiple family dogs. Two black labs and a golden retriever. After college I had a French Bulldog, named Ollie. I am currently pet free and looking to help out others who are in need of pet care. I am a school teacher on Nantucket. I work Monday through Friday 7:35-3:15. I have a 1.5 hour break from 11-12:30. I can offer a break to any pet every 4-8 hours. I can easily crate a dog if needed or limit their access to my apartment kitchen only. I don’t currently have any pets so I can offer my full attention to your pet.
“I trusted Brad from the moment I met him before we left for our vacation. Brad was in charge of our 100 pound hound and a tiny kitten. He handled them both with such kindness and genuine care. Brad was in touch with me daily and sent lots of pictures and videos. He was very responsive whenever we reached out to him. I would highly recommend Brad to anyone who is worried about leaving their pet with a Rover.com person. He is THE BEST!”
“Cate was a great companion for my social Maine Coon who does not like to be left alone. He was calm and relaxed when we got home which means he was very happy with Cate as a roommate. She was very flexible and easy to communicate with about details and gave me a nice update when I returned. Many thanks for this priceless service! Highly recommended :)”
“Kathryn watched Bella for us while we enjoyed dinner our last night in Nantucket. This was our 1st time ever leaving Bella with a sitter. Kathryn was very responsive , accommodating, on time, and made our dinner worry free.”

“Stewart was a great fit for our Lucy. He took the time to send us pictures of the activities they were doing which allowed us to be more at ease and enjoy our trip. He was attentive to Lucy and gave her great care- I don't think she even missed us! We definitely would recommend Stewart and will use him again in the future.”
About: When your dog stays with us, he will feel like he’s on vacation too! My husband and I are energetic, loving, and always ready for playtime, snuggles, or a good adventure. We live in a beautiful area with plenty of green spaces and we love to hike and trail walking— so your pup will get plenty of opportunities to explore and exercise with us! Every pup i’ve taken care of has become part of my family and takes a piece of my heart with him. So let’s chat and arrange the break in routine that you and your pup both deserve! I’m currently a stay at home wife and I love the outdoors, so having a companion for my walks will be a win-win situation! I am available to take walks at multiple times of the day! We live in an apartment but there are lots of designated pet and green areas around our complex and lots of trails that we can walk to. I like to spend time outside and live an energetic lifestyle. I love training puppies and I have even successfully trained adult rescue dogs when guven enough time.

r kitties warmed up to her very quick and Lily had a great time with them. We felt very comfortable leaving our babies knowing they were in great hands and we were not worried at all while we were gone. She followed all instructions carefully and made sure they were well taken care of, and loved. We will definitely be using Lily as our go to sitter in the future. It was very nice to be able to enjoy our vacation stress free as Lily was very attentive and loving. I was so stressed trying to find the perfect sitter for our kitties and we were super grateful to find Lily . She works at the animal hospital and has lots of experience with pets of all kinds. She also has cats and dogs herself so she is very qualified and experienced. If you’re looking to find the perfect sitter that will care for your babies as if they were their own, definitely consider Lily. She will make sure your pets are well taken of and loved. Thank you so much Lily! It was a pleasure to have you and we look forward to seeing you again (:
Madison is the cutest young lady who is very sweet and we could tell right away she naturally loves dogs! Maddy took excellent care of Grady, our 7yr old Eng. Springer Spaniel, for a week while we attended daughter’s wedding! Grady has a lot of energy and we felt very confident Maddy would not have any problem! She sent us pictures and videos the whole time. Of course we were nervous before meeting Maddy but we left feeling happy and grateful knowing Grady was in good hands!
