“Laura was great. She cleaned some unfortunate litter box issues. Bless her. More importantly than that, though. I returned home to cats that were not stressed. This is a first for them and I’m so grateful.”
“I would give Laura 10 stars if I could. She made our vacation stress free. Even when I needed to add an impromptu second visit mid week, it was no problem. We have two English Setters and one is a little anxious with people she doesn’t know and they both loved Laura. We also loved the daily pictures and updates she sent. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be contacting her again. Thank you so much Laura!”
“Jordyn was GREAT!! This was the first time we left him since he adopted us, so it was a tough time with leaving him. I knew when she came & left, got updates & pictures, which is tremendously helpful. When I asked about anything, I immediately got an answer. I have not heard the end of it since we got back. (I didn't bring any lobsters for him) Thanks Jordyn, we will see you again!”
“Samantha was awesome! Yeezy is a problem child, but she stuck with it and he finally ate for her! Not sure if she got to pet him, but I was just thankful that there were no issues. I would definitely use her services again and again. Thank you Samantha for taking such good care of my babies. I know Franky appreciated the attention.”
“Karen provided excellent care for our cats while we were away. She provided prompt and complete updates after each visit and made us feel confident that our pets were in good hands. Karen took the time to meet us and our pets ahead of time to ensure that everything went smoothly and was very easy to deal with. I would highly recommend her.”
About: I've cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds since I was a kid, and been a dog mom myself for 12 years. I've done it all - from feeding, walks and playtime, to bathing and cleaning up accidental messes. I currently petsit for friends and family and love every second of it! I treat every animal I care for as if they were my own fur babies. I work from home and make my own schedule so I have lots of time and flexibility to stop in and take care of your furry friend! I'm comfortable walking multiple dogs on leashes and I'm extra patient with dogs who need a little extra support or guidance while on lead. I'm highly aware of my surroundings and keep playtime in safe, enclosed spaces your dog is comfortable in. And as I've cared for my dogs, as well as others' dogs, for about 20 years, I'm really good at reading dog body language and telling when they're tired, needing some rest or water, or still need a few more minutes of sniffing the neighbor's bushes :)
“Janine was very conscientious when taking care of my cat on overnights. She send multiple photos with comments which put me at ease. She followed my instructions very well. My house seems to be a bit cleaner than when I left it too.”
“Mimi is a great pet sitter! She took very good care of our two cats when we were away, and they liked her as well. She is kind, responsive, and reliable. We would definitely ask Mimi for sitting them again. Highly recommended!”
About: I have been a pet lover my entire life. Growing up, we always had dogs, cats, aquariums and canaries. I have had the pleasure of having several generations of yorkies in my life. My last little Rosie lived for 17 years and enjoyed a loving and pampered life. I love all animals and would care for your pet as if it were my own. I live in a small antique house located a couple of blocks from the Merrimack River. There is a beautiful walking path close to my home that welcomes dog walkers. I have a small brick paved yard that is fenced and secure.Your pet will be pampered and spoiled in my care. We love to go to the beach and have close access to a great dog friendly beach as well as the dog park down the street. In addition to being a pet sitter, I am a realtor, cooking coach and recipe tester. I spend a lot of time in my kitchen which is adjacent to my enclosed yard. Most pets like to be close to me so I always seem to have company when I am cooking. Your pet will feel safe and loved in my home. I know from personal experience how important it is to know your pet will receive the special care and love that they are accustomed to at home. Please note that there may be extra charge for holidays and time after 24 hour period. Custom quotes available. I do work as a realtor but mostly from home. When I do leave your pets will be safe with run of the kitchen and dining room. Otherwise they will be by my side. I am home most of the time and never more than 2 hours a day away. I have a secure fenced in yard and of course will provide several walks a day. I prefer a small dogs that are hopefully trained to do their business outside but having had Yorkies for years I know there are occasional accidents. I will provide them with loving care and lots of hugs and kisses always.
“Laney took great care of our cat! So appreciative of her sharing pictures during our time away. In each pic, could tell how happy our sweet cat was. Super thankful and highly recommend Laney!”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for both cats and dogs. While I’m new to Rover, I’ve spent many years caring for pets in a home environment—growing up with two cats and a sweet family dog who truly felt like part of the family. I’ve always been the go-to person among friends and family for feeding, walking, and spending time with their pets when they’re away. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust to look after your furry loved ones—and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m attentive, reliable, and happy to follow any specific instructions you provide. Whether your pet needs a brisk walk, calm companionship, or just someone to play fetch with, I’ll make sure they’re well taken care of and treated like my own. I’m also happy to send photos and updates while you’re away so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands. I’m excited to meet new pets and their people—and I look forward to helping however I can! My schedule is very flexible (usually available at all hours), which allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday check-in, or an evening feeding, I make time for each pet and treat every visit with the attention it deserves. I always treat pets and their homes with the utmost respect. I follow all owner instructions carefully, prioritize safety, and make sure pets feel calm, secure, and loved. I never leave a pet unsupervised outside, and I clean up after them to keep things tidy. My goal is to make the experience stress free for both the pet and the owner.
About: I have been dog sitting since I was in middle school. Friends, family, friends of friend, and neighbors have trusted me with their furry family members. As someone who has a little pup myself, I know the care and consideration each individual animal needs and deserves. I've worked with a variety of breads, behaviors, and ages and feel equipped to ensure a safe walk, play time, or check in for your dog. Personally, I've adopted a puppy Cairn Terrier, Ruckus. I've loved training with him, creating a bond, and learning more about dog behavior. It's been a really fun journey. He's a sassy little guy. I have been off Rover for the past few years, moving around and attending Grad School. I am excited to be back to help the Essex community care for their pets. I currently work from home, full time. I have flexibility in my schedule to do walks and drop in visits for your dog. Where I can provide full and undivided attention. When I have a dog I'm looking after, I will ensure safety and fun - however that looks for your doggie. Going for a walk, playing catch in the yard, or even just laying on the couch getting some pets. Your pet will be my priority for the duration of my visit.
