About: Hi! What makes me different is I enjoy my time being spent with the pups. I will always have my attention on the pup. I will make sure he eats goods take him to the nearest by park, walk them around, play with them inside. I have a fenced in yard and if your dog loves hiking I have a hiking trail behind my neighborhood also have a beach close by if there a beach kinda pup. I make sure to interact as much as I can and allowed so they don’t feel so upset the owner is gone I know it can be hard. I am also very reliable. I want nothing more than to make a good experience for the pup and owner as I would expect that for my own pup! please reach out and let me know how I can make this a great experience for you. Looking forward to working with new pups! I work part time. But I would like this to be the job I mostly work I love animals especially caring for them and making sure they have good experience. I will make sure the dog is always being watched especially the little ones. I will make sure it’s safe for everyone in every sceneries.
About: I am a Certified Veterinary Technician with a Bachelors degree in Veterinary Technology. I have been a Vet Tech for over 6 years now, working in Emergency and Critical Care. Prior to this, my love for animals started when I was very young. I knew from the beginning I wanted to work with animals in some capacity. I grew up with dogs, cats, hamster, turtles and rabbits, so I am comfortable sitting for a variety of species. I just moved to the area and not starting work until a few weeks after the new year. My schedule from now until then is pretty free, but once I know my work schedule I will update my profile accordingly. I have a yard that is 3/4 of the way fenced in currently. I have a Great dog named Sarge, he is very friendly with dogs all sizes. Your pets safety is my number one priority if there is any concerns at all I will be sure to take the necessary steps to ensure your pets wellness.
“Jackie was wonderful with my 11yo Siberian Husky, Bella! From the moment they met, Bella welcomed her with kisses. She was very prompt and attentive to Bella’s needs for relief and exercise while I was at work all day. We’ve moved to Florida for the winter but look forward to seeking the ease and security of Rover.com in the future.”


About: I have many years of pet sitting experience as well as three dogs myself. I am training my second service dog (who will not accompany me while I work… don’t worry!) as well as dabbling in the AKC show and sport world. and this summer I will be enrolling in a vet assistant certification program! I have both owned and cared for every size, from XL to XS. truly nothing scares me… medical needs, reactivity, a pet who needs some extra time and care to adjust, or your average golden who loves everyone! There are very few pets i am not comfortable with… and I prioritize honesty and safety above all else. early mornings and late nights work best for me! I am free most weekends and will always try and be as flexible and honest as possible. In a clients home, I will always ask as many questions as needed to familiarize myself with the environment and your pets favorite play, sleep, and hiding spots. an emergency plan is something i always love to establish, and I am never scared to send a quick text to clarify something!

About: I’ve taken care of animals most of my life. I have experience with most breeds and exotics. I have owned dogs, cats, sugar gliders, bunnies, and more. I am comfortable with all breeds. I am comfortable giving medications. I am reliable, honest, and kind. I can’t wait to meet your pet! My availability is currently Friday through Monday. I do not work those days so my time would be solely committed to your pets needs. I can also be very flexible with days and times if need be. I am very mindful that I am in someone’s house as a guest and that someone is trusting me with their pet. I don’t take this lightly. I am strive to be honest, transparent, and always kind. I will treat your pet like my own and respect your wishes regarding your pet and home.
“Sarah was punctual and took wonderful care of Penny and Pepper (aka pippa). She put my mind at ease with regular updates and snapshots which I loved! I definitely recommend her and plan to book with her again.”

“This was the first time we had McKenzie care for our senior dog, and we couldn't have been more pleased! Everything went extremely well while we were away. Would highly recommend and would definitely use her again! Thank you McKenzie!!”

About: As a life long owner of cats and dogs, I understand that finding care for your precious family member is a difficult choice. When I meet any animal I move at their pace, understanding that all animals have different personalities and needs. I love to be outside with my own dogs and cuddling inside with my cats, so giving yours the same love and care will be an easy task. I’m currently working on a start-up project at home so my time is flexible. Regular care, or just a one time visit, I’m happy to work with you on your schedule. I am a pet owner myself and care about mine like they’re my children. Any medication needs or special assistance your pet requires is never too much for me to accommodate.
About: I’ve had dog(s) since before I was born and I try to make sure that they receive adequate back rubs, treats, and outfits in addition to their basic care. As a kid I watched many neighbors dogs while they were on vacation and I am always the first one to fill a food or water bowl At this time I have a wide range of availability to care for dogs in my schedule. I am open to different care options to best meet the dog’s needs I have a fenced in area where my three dogs are able to let themselves in and out via doggy door. They can have as much food as they want as they are feeder fed.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was young and have experience with dogs of all ages—from puppies to seniors. I love giving each dog the attention, exercise, and care they deserve, making sure they are comfortable and safe! I have cared for my families dogs twice a day, multiple days a week for the last several years! Including walks, feeding, playtime and everything in between! I would love to do the same for you and your pet! Being around animals has always come natural to me and I will always make sure your pet is safe and treated as if they were my own. I will work around what makes you and your pet feel the most comfortable

About: I’ve had dogs for my entire life! I’ve been dog ansitting for neighbors as well as family since I was 14. I am a total animal lover and look forward to being around them.

PLEASE NOTE: I AM LEAVING CAPE COD AUGUST 30TH FOR COLLEGE! I am home from college for the summer! I spent my time at school dogsitting/walking and loved it and wanted to continue on at home! I work most days but I am flexible. I do not have any dogs living with me in VT currently but I have a TON of play and yard space for dogs!! I am someone that will always be keeping a close eye. I’m very responsible and I pride myself on that!!
“Kelly was wonderful! She checked in on our dogs while we were away for the weekend—always prompt, spent time playing with them, fed them, and made sure they felt loved and cared for. It gave us such peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
“Emma is fantastic! On very short notice, Emma agreed to do drop in visits with my two Golden’s in the very early morning and at night. The pups look so happy to see her in every picture on their report card. Thank you Emma!”

About: I LOVE dogs!! I have had rescue dogs for almost my entire life, currently I have an 11 year old Lab/Weimaraner mix and he is my entire world! I have watched and taken care of many family members and friends dogs both at my home and theirs. They have been all breeds, shapes, sizes, and ages. I’m very active and would love to take some pups on long walks!! I work a full-time 8–5 schedule during the week but am available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends. I can provide evening walks, drop-in visits, and flexible weekend care! I’m a lifelong dog lover with experience caring for my own rescue dogs as well as dogs for friends and family.

About: Had a 5 month old pup at aged 9 (also had a dominant cat) taught her basics and more over time until she needed medication due to her old age. Looked after friends senior dog which needed meds with food and their other dog that had special dietary needs including medication 3 times a day. House and dog&cat sat for friends that would go away to France for a long weekends I have plenty of time to give care and attention. I am not working at the moment and in between job maybe this is my calling we have a lot of space in the home and in the yard. We do not have any of our own pets yet, but we are talking a lot about them. We have a large 4ft fenced in grass yard and a large basement to allow for off leash freedom to play regardless of weather. Over the back fence we have active cranberry bogs with loads of open space and smells perfect for long walks. I am a fast walker and happy to cover 3-5 miles on a walk. Any fur-babies that need to stay overnight will be looked after like they are my own. I’ll send lots of pictures and make sure your pet is comfortable with as much attention as it needs.
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was 3 years old, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have hands on experience with large breeds and am confident handling bigger dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and understand the importance of patience, comfort, and attentive care as they age. I put a lot of love and care into every pet I watch. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry baby, so I treat every dog as if they were my own. Making sure they feel safe, loved, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule where I work from home somedays. My partner also works 5 minutes from our house and is able to help with potty breaks during the day. We spend a lot of time in our yard or walking the canal in nice days and would love a wagging tail to join us. We have a fenced in yard and live in a quiet neighborhood to go on walks. We love to go to the canal and spend time outside. We have a full finished basement perfect for any size dog to enjoy!

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Alexa! Not only are the walks consistent and reliable, but the house visits have been an absolute game-changer. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing our dog is being cared for in a familiar environment while we’re away. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive to both your pet and your home, I highly recommend her. We couldn’t be happier!

I have 2 large very energetic dogs ! Julia was very comfortable with them when she first met them. Dogs are very intuitive and they loved her. We returned from a 3 day trip to 2 very happy dogs. Julia sent several photos at each drop in visit which we truly appreciated.
