About: I have loved walking, hiking and taking care of dogs with my trusty canine by my side. First there was Bing our black lab and then sweet Molly (golden) and now Ivy (another golden). We would love to tire your dog out. I generally run two to three walks per day starting at 9 then 11:30 and 1:30. I take 3 to 5 dogs hiking with my golden Ivy. I am also happy to do pop ins and leash walks. I am available for feedings and tuck ins as needed and find dogs are the most comfortable in their homes when not out walking or hiking. I am happy to give meds or anything else your pet needs when you are away for an extended period of time.
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and have walked them for two years. I make sure they have a safe fun time. My schedule is pretty open so I am guaranteed to make sure your pet is well taken care of and having a fun safe time. In clients home I make sure that gates are closed to backyard. Make sure they aren’t getting into anything they aren’t supposed to be in.

About: Hi, I'm Liz! I'm the person who always looks to meet, greet, and hug new dogs when walking down the street (with their owner's permission of course!) I grew up with a dog and helped raise him from 8 weeks old until he sadly passed away at age 15. I love to dog-sit for my friends and family when they are away on trips. I love bringing dogs on walks, to the park, going for short runs (if the dog is able), as well as spoiling them with treats and toys! I am a full-time teacher, but I have availability after-work, weekends, and breaks throughout the year! I love dogs of all ages and sizes, and I feel dogs make the world a better place :) I am a full-time teacher in Boston, so before the hours of 8am and after 4:30pm work best during the week. I have more flexibility on the weekends and over school breaks! When caring for a pet in my client’s home, I always seek important information regarding the dog’s food, exercise, and sleep schedules. I also request important information regarding health and emergency phone numbers if necessary!
“Staci was very friendly and helpful and took great care of Nyx. She followed instructions to the letter, took pictures, and kept me updated. I will definitely be reaching out to her again.”
“Alisa was fantastic sent me pictures and was very responsive would def use her again!!!”
About: I have cared for dogs ever since I was younger. I have had a dog since I was 9 years old so I have lots of experience with animals. I am currently a senior in high school at Needham High, but I am available during afternoons and sometimes throughout the day if I have breaks in my schedule. I have a golden retriever who is 8 years old. She is very energetic and playful so I take her for many walks a day and play with her. I love walking other dogs as well and look forward to meeting new pets!
About: I am on my senior year of college and have grown up with dogs since I was born. I currently have two labradors who are truly my best friends. My love for dogs is unmatched and if you ask any of my friends I freak out over any dog I see. I would love to be able to simply help give your furry friends some extra love whenever you need it weather it is letting them out during the day, taking them on walks or taking care of them when you are away! I work a part time job however it is in the later afternoon most days. I am avaliable mornings and nights for whatever you may need! I am very active and go on walks and runs every morning and would love to take a friend with me! I am avaliable to also keep them company during the day while I do work from my computer as well!
“We used Karin for a drop in visit when we were gone for the day. She was wonderful with my nervous dog. Happy pup, happy owner! We hope to have her come again next time we are away.”
“Madison made my trip abroad away from my young cats for 10 days so much better because I could tell immediately upon meeting her she’d be reliable and kind to the cats. The cats were happy and well cared for and the house was secure while she was coming in and out. I’ll definitely be asking Madison for help in the future.”
About: I'm a very knowledgable pet sitter with 10+ years of experience working with other client's pets and 15+ years caring for my own pets. Im comfortable with most pets all sizes and ages, not only limited to dogs and cats! I work full time as a pet sitter/dog walker. My schedule is very flexible since I can organize my own schedule! If I'm not out on walks I spend my downtime at home hanging out with the pets. I treat each pet as if they're my own, Im very alert and attentive. Im respectful of my client's home and keep their home nice and clean just how I'd want someone to do the same for me. Im happy to send over local references!
About: The Pet Whisperer: I have decades of experience both caring for AND owning pets; mainly cats and dogs. My first dog was already in the family when I was born; I don't know life without caring for a pet. Dog walks and cat play have always been a part of my lifestyle. Looking to carry my love of pets into caring for yours! I currently have flexibility in my schedule from 6:30 am - 10:30 pm seven days per week; ideally with advance notice especially for boarding and/or around holidays. If an opportunity arises where I am at my home with your pet, I have a fenced in backyard for outdoor play. Indoors I have several dog beds of varying sizes for your dog to feel comfortable and right at home and dog toys to enjoy (both of which get cleaned after every use dog visit)
About: I have two dogs, one family dog and one rescue of my own. I have also been volunteering at a local shelter for almost two years now. I’ve been trained to handle reactive and misbehaved dogs, help them learn manners, and know their queues. I spend a lot of time keeping them company and giving them love, as well as walking and feeding them. I have a rescue dog of my own that I am personally training. She’s a consistent part of my day-to-day life as she is my responsibility. I try to stop by the shelter as much as I’m able to, as making even that small difference in the animals’ lives, even if it’s just some snuggles for a few minutes or changing their water, means everything to me. The best way to take care of pets is to learn that given pet and what helps them thrive. It is important to take the time to get to know any animal you are caring for. I shower animals in my care with love and at the same time, I respect any boundaries issued to me by the animal. I care for animals in a way that I am sure I’m always promoting good manners in them.

11. Elizabeth C.
“I have known Liz for over 14 years and ever since we met in 2010, she has been a true dog lover, carer, and cheerleader. Liz is a natural with dogs. She is kind, attentive, and gives each pup her full attention. Liz would make a wonderful team member of the Rover community because she will go above and beyond to make sure the pups are well taken care of. With my dogs, Chance and Teddy, they instantly loved her. She always makes sure to ask about their dietary needs and takes the time to get to know them individually, which I really appreciate because every dog is different. Liz is extremely attentive and detail-oriented, and I would trust her to make thoughtful decisions in any situation that might come up while caring for a dog. In general, Liz is super reliable and communicates really well with people. Her experience as a teacher speaks to her patience, organization, and ability to handle unexpected situations calmly. These are all qualities that would make her an outstanding sitter. I know dog parents will appreciate having someone they can easily talk to, trust, and know their pups are in the best hands. I recommend Liz without hesitation and would trust her with my dogs anytime. I know they would be showered with love and the utmost care.”
