“Amanda and her family took care of Butters very well. the family is welcoming and caring. Butters had a wonderful time. definitely recommend. Thank you so much for taking care of Butters.”


“This was the first boarding experience for my 2 year old fur baby and it could not have gone better. Heather and Norman are the BEST! They were very accommodating and commutative. Rita LOVED her time in their home. It truly was her home away from home. I will definitely be using Heather and Norm in the future. Thank you guys for everything!”


“Kim was great with our beloved pup! She kept in contact with us and sent us pictures to update us on his wonderful vacation away from home! We would definitely recommend!”


“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Our puppy Koda was staying away from home for the first time, and Novelette took amazing care of him. She kept us updated throughout his stay with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Koda had a blast and came home happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful and would absolutely book with her again!”


“Caitlin was an amazing sitter for our dog Steve! During our pup’s 10-day stay, Caitlin provided picture and video updates to help us know he was safe and happy. When we picked him up, Steve was so relaxed and happy (way more so than when we used to keep him at the kennel). It was clear that Caitlin truly cared about making sure Steve's stay was comfortable and close to his normal routine. Her young kids were so gentle and kind with the dog, and we never had any concerns. I definitely recommend Caitlin!”


“Jenelly was great! Very communicative and took lots of pictures. It seemed that Beau had a vacation while I was on vacation with all the pets and cuddles he received. Thanks Jenelly!”


“Angie was excellent with my Tommy. keep me posted every day how he was doing send me a pictures. She was very caring and very patient. The fact that he’s only seven months I would highly recommend her to anyone if I ever need the service again I will make sure that I request Angie.”


“Best dogsitters ever! I cannot recommend them enough. Such a warm, welcoming, and caring family with a beautiful home and the perfect place for dogs. They took amazing care of our beloved pup—treating her like part of their own family. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such loving hands. Truly grateful for the wonderful care they provided.”


“Taylor was absolutely amazing!!! From wanting to meet up before my boarding booking to make sure our dogs got along (they did :) ) to sending pictures and checking in while I was away - he is a great sitter and boarding option! He was also really accommodating when my plans changed literally last minute and even updated the booking to save the extra day charge, which he certainly didn't have to do since the change was on my side. I could just tell he was a pet person, and my dogs came home very happy and loved while I was away. Thank you Taylor - and for anyone else, he is VERY highly recommended :)”


“Ann was friendly and welcoming. She had great communication, giving updates and pictures while I was away. She has a really nice fenced in yard. I am looking forward to boarding with Ann again!”


“I only have great things to say about our experiences with Shawna! She's great at communicating - she was always quick to respond to qurstions and sent daily updates and pictures. She is also just a very nice person who immediately puts you at ease when leaving your pup in her care. She took great care of our guy and we will definitely use her again!”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats my entire life. In my home growing up I had two dogs and a cat. I cared for neighbors animals often whenever they traveled. I’m adept in training dogs and dog behavior. After moving from home I dearly missed my animals and started to volunteer at a rescue center near me five times a week. I’m currently in graduate school online, studying to be an elementary school teacher! I’m doing practical work at schools nearby part time. I’m used to be around two big dogs and one cat everyday but ever since moving out of my hometown I miss the pet life. I volunteer often at a rescue shelter near me! Often I take dogs home for an enrichment vacation from the shelter! I have no pets myself so I offer a comfortable quiet environment for your beloved fur baby! I have a lovely yard just waiting for sniffs. It’s not fenced in but is surround by woods and I plan to fence eventually. And there are so many wonderful walking paths near me.


“Aemelia was very kind and took great care of our pup. She was good at communicating and sharing photos of Alice and Eko playing together and hanging out. We won’t hesitate to reach out to her again in future.”


“Juliana was GREAT with my dog Tobey! He was happy and well-cared for. Juliana has great communication, sending pics and updates, answering questions as needed. I hope Tobey gets to hang with her again! She even gave Tobey some of her cat’s toys because he loved them! Top rating!!”


About: As both a dog walker/sitter and a pet owner myself, I understand the needs and concerns you may have while away from your furr baby. I’m dedicated to keeping you updated throughout the process with photos, videos, and regular communication. My goal is to ensure your pet has the best time possible and to give you peace of mind, so you never have to worry. With two dogs and a bearded dragon of my own, I bring hands-on experience and a genuine love for animals. I enjoy playing with dogs and taking them on local fun trail adventures. My goal is to ensure every dog has a joyful and fulfilling experience. I’m available to pet sit on weekdays, weekends, and some holidays, providing reliable care to your furry friend’s needs. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities! I’m available most of the time and willing to work around your schedule. Just let me know your specific needs, and I’ll do my best to accommodate them, ensuring both you and your pet have a smooth and stress free experience. I have a very flexible schedule to accommodate your needs, currently live in an apartment and can provide 3-4 potty breaks throughout the day, along with 2 daily walks.

About: Hello everyone! My name is Hope Kenny, I am 22 years old and just graduated from UMass Amherst. I have plenty of experience pet sitting. All the way from puppies to chinchillas, I’ve done them all! I treat all the pets I sit for like my own and giving all the loving care and attention they deserve. If you have any questions I’d love to talk more. I can’t wait to hear from you! I like to treat each pet I’m sitting like my own, and will incorporate them into my schedule as best I can. The only obligation I have is work from about 10:30-3:30. Other than that I am fully available to give your pets the love and attention that they deserve! I think it’s very important to make your pets as comfortable as possible. They are allowed on my couch, on my bed, and whatever room I am in. I will take them out as much as I can so they aren’t cooped up inside the house. I like to walk so walks are definitely in store if that’s something the pup is interested in.

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. :)

“Absolutely perfect experience with Amad for Leo, our terrier, and peace of mind for us! Leo went on 4 walks/day, played with toys and slept on couches. Leo is 14, adopted and has fear aggression and separation anxiety so he isn’t an average pet. By the 1st night Leo was sleeping on Amad ! I can’t say enough! Leo and us have a new favorite friend!”


“Jodi's beautiful home and care was truly the perfect place for our aging dog Scooby. The kindness, attention to his individual character and needs, as well as a clear love of doggies from both Jodi and Justine went above and beyond. I cannot begin to give enough praise for their attention to his personality and aging dogs needs, his love of a scrambled egg, his love of a better treat ;), and his need to cuddle up at night in a bed with a human. I so wish they lived closer to us, for we would be return visitors - without a doubt! With lots of gratitude - Love Scooby and his Humans”
