“Patti ( and her family) are the best! It was my first time leaving my pup and it was a 12 day honeymoon. I was nervous but she sent pictures and updates every couple days and I’m pretty sure my little guy was actually sad to leave. I would recommend her to EVERYONE!”
“Karl is a wonderful pet sitter. Bella loved her time in his home and we loved the photos of her looking calm and well loved. Thank you so much, we will definitely be in touch next time we need dog sitting!”
“Tricia was very easy to communicate with & made the process very easy! I felt great leaving my pup with her over the weekend and I know Pippin had a great time. She came back to me a very happy and smiley puppy.”
“I booked Rachel last minute fully expecting for her to not respond or say she was available and she responded within minutes for my last second request. She and her family took excellent care of Hank and sent me several pictures and updates through out. 10/10. Very happy to have found someone trust worthy i can leave my dog with and have no worries without feeling like i am burdening friends or family.”
“Gabi was a phenomenal host to our 11 year-old dog. She took her for multiple daily walks, sent photos, and kept us informed of our pet’s well-being. Gabi was very thorough throughout the entire process, from taking time to meet our dog ahead of the three-day stay, to sending communications us throughout the weekend. We were lucky to find Gabi!”
About: I have always loved and lived with pets. Growing up we had multiple cats and a dog or two at any given time. In high school, I convinced my mom to foster a litter of kittens for our local humane society and we ended up caring for litters and kittens and puppies as well as seniors and sickly dogs for years to come. Right out of college I adopted my cat, and she has been my constant companion ever since. A decade later I rescued a very reactive dog and worked for 5 years on his reactivity. We made great improvements together! If you need someone to walk your reactive dog during the day, I’m your gal! I’d also love to care for your chill, non-reactive dog when you go out of town. I have a very active toddler, so I can only board dogs who are reliably safe around small children. I am available Monday-Thursday from 9-3 for drop ins and dog walks, with some flexible availability on the weekends too. Available for boarding as well this winter I have a large fenced portion of my back yard, as well as easy access to the bike path. We have some baby gates in our house, and more in storage, if that makes sense to make your pets comfortable.
“Dorjee was wonderful with Meryl. I loved that she answered messages quickly and sent photos of Meryl on walks. Despite the great service and I thought good relationship, I was shocked that Dorjee suddenly told me she was refusing to communicate with me or do business anymore because of my questions. This sudden severence is quite upsetting to me. I so much wish she would have told me she had issues with my questions rather than suddenly ending all communication with no warning.”
“Sandra was wonderful to work with! She was easy to communicate with, and I knew Otis was in great hands. He came home happy and relaxed after his stay. ✨”
“Megan was communicative, friendly and shared photos of my girl while I was away. She enabled my dog to get acclimated before introducing her pets which was great for my timid older girl. My pup was in a great mood when I picked her up. Highly recommend.”
“Happy and satisfied with Lataya quick response time and positive attitude given my last minute schedule changes. She is the best doggie MOM to my puppy Charlie! We bothare happy! 😌”
About: I've taken care of and watched animals for practically my entire life, but the first time I had ever watched animals by myself was when I was around 10. I frequently watch and let my aunt's dogs out and have a cat of my own. I hope to have many animals someday! I am currently going to school full-time, but my classes only take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I will have plenty of time to hang out with your animal! I currently have a cat, so if your animal has an aversion to cats, I recommend booking someone else! My cat does not like other cats, but he has his own area, so they will not interact if I watch your cat in my home. If I pet sit at your home, I am accommodating to anything you need, whether staying over or just popping in to let them out!
“They we're great with Ranger! I received updates and pictures each day about how Ranger was doing and any antics he was up to. Lots of walks were taken and i really appreciated the help and flexibility to work with my schedule. Ranger came home happy and tired from all his excitement!”
“My dog had a wonderful day with Manolita!! She’s so kind and caring and made us both feel comfortable! When I picked him up from his stay he was very comfortable and calm, which was a great sign! She also sent pictures and updates throughout the day, which I loved! I highly recommend her!”
About: I was raised in a very pet-friendly family. We had dogs, cats, hamsters and pets galore. I was the proud pet parent of an 13 year old yellow-lab named Charlie. We went for a 2.5 mile walk twice a day (morning and night). I love animals of all sizes and types. Animals are my true passion. As my headline says, "Don't Be Nervous Pet Service." I will ensure that your animal family member is properly cared for and loved. I am blessed that my full-time position is work from home… this makes me able to work from anywhere. Your pet loved one will be surrounded by love all day long. I care for your pets the same regardless of my house or yours. I will ensure that their daily routines are followed and that they get LOTS of play time. If we rough house play, I always ensure that’s done outside so that all client possessions are not at risk for tail wag hits. :)
“Karen and family were awesome with Alibi, our 15 months old Australian Shepherd. Lots of personal attention, and a great large fenced yard for the dogs to chase each other around. Karen’s whole family welcomed Alibi into their home and she really connected with their dog Lily. All in all, the stay was great and we will certainly be using Karen’s services again!”
About: In the past I have offered pet sitting services to friends and family, as well as volunteering at local animals shelters (Dakin and JM Animal Training and Rescue) and working for Smith Equestrian. I am currently interning with a service dog trainer from JM Animal Training and Rescue who uses a positive reinforcement based model of training. I find this brings out the best results in animals, and gives humans an opportunity to learn what their dog reacts to and enjoys most. I would like to learn from you – the parents – about your furbabies behaviors, triggers and favorite activities. My goal is to provide you and your kiddos a positive experience in a safe and fun environment. I am available Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, & Friday for dog walks and drop in visits. I am available most weekends for pet sitting as well! I am looking for regulars who can rely on me throughout the week, and am happy to fill in last minute on weekends. I prefer to walk your dogs on trails, at dog parks, or other areas that are pet friendly. As long as your pup is friendly with others (animals and humans included) we can go on all sorts of adventures! If your furbaby prefers some alone time I'm happy to accommodate that as well. I'm available in the afternoon after 11am on Weekdays so I can drop in to walk and or check in on your furbabies. I also am Available on Weekends especially for house sitting. If you have any particular ways in which your kiddos are taken care of by you the parent, I'm happy to learn what those routines are.
“Lisa was FANTASTIC, and we are pretty nervous dog owners. We needed an early dropoff and late pickup while our daughter graduated, and Lisa was super accomodating. We were secure and our pup was happy and safe. THANK YOU LISA!!!”

Northampton dog parents share their Rover experiences
It was our first time boarding our dog and we had an amazing experience with Emma. Our dog was immediately comfortable with her and settled in very quickly. I could tell from her photos and videos that he was comfy and happy. Emma put us at ease as two very nervous pet parents but we did not worry at all. We are so thankful to have found Emma and would not hesitate to work with her again.
We are extremely happy with the care and attention Jodi gave our 11-year old terrier mix, Dasher. Jodi offered us a meet and greet before our vacation dates that put us at ease right away. Dasher checked out her home with his nose while reviewed his daily routines, medicines and likes/dislikes. Jodi asked great questions that showed us that she truly loves dogs and gets their individual personality quirks. Dasher took to her quickly and enjoyed ear rubs during our meeting. We received at least one message and photo of Dasher from Jodi each day he was in her care. He clearly looked happy and comfortable, and got lap time with Jodi as well as walks and supervised yard time. We're already booked to have Jodi care for Dasher again soon. Highly recommend!
Evan took great care of Scout. Great communication throughout and Evan went above and beyond in caring for our boy. We were sent pictures and updates regularly. Scout was given so much love, exercise and care. Would def rebook. We are grateful that our pup was so loved while we were away.
