“Karissa knows what she's doing, and knew how to ease my nervous mind when we were away for a long weekend. She provided feedback and photos. I would highly recommend Karissa for dependable, quality care. -L.R., Centerville”
“Tonja and Daniel are fabulous! We loved meeting them and playing with them. They both had such an excellent way with the dogs, happy to play with them, but then knowing when to give them a rest so that they can calm down and spend time with each dog individually. I would highly recommend them!!”
“Amanda is amazing! I have very high standards for those that I entrust with my girls’ care and I felt completely confident and comfortable hiring Amanda. She was communicative and extra responsive when I asked her to keep a close eye on one of my girls, she took great pictures, and spent quality time with the pups. I’m so grateful to have found Amanda and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for exceptional care!!”

About: Hello! My name is Isabella, I'm 29 years old, and I truly am the definition of an animal lover. In 2018, I graduated from the University of Rhode Island with a Bachelor's degree in Cell and Molecular Biology and a minor in animal science. I was a veterinary technician at the Newport Animal Hospital, Jamestown Animal Clinic, and Newport Animal Clinic from 2018-2020, and I left to further my career/education in medical laboratory science. Since my graduation, I have moved to Hyannis to be a Medical Laboratory Scientist! With this though, being a veterinary technician was truly the best job in the world. I am properly equipped with the knowledge and the skills to provide only the best care for your pets. I live in a very loving, safe house with lots of land. Regarding the pets I've had, I rescued a 10 year old sweet bull terrier named Daisy, who was the love of my life and passed due to old age. I have since fostered multiple other bull terriers through Bull Terrier Rescue Mission to help get them to their forever home. I first started off in this field as a volunteer at a local animal shelter in 2016, and continued this at the MSPCA here in Centerville on my days off. I also have had a research position with Dr. Maria Hoffman, who is very involved with the AVS community at URI. This IS my passion, and I will give your animal(s) the love, compassion, and care they deserve. I am a recent graduate from the highly competitive medical laboratory science program at RI Hospital, and using this downtime to pursue my passion- caring for animals! Your pets & your property are my number one priority and will be treated with the upmost respect. I have all the skills and knowledge through my veterinary technician experience to make each visit a great one- for you and your pets! I currently only work 4 days a week as a medical laboratory scientist here at Cape Cod Hospital, so I am always close by for your pets! I have days off during the week most of the time. Your pets will be our family for the duration of their stay! As mentioned, I am heavily involved in fostering through Bull Terrier Rescue Mission, so I know how to provide each unique animal with utmost care.
“Lily was hired to stop by and care for my two cats Sean and Master Jeremy while away on a trip. Lily followed all instructions and did a fantastic job. I highly recommend her services as a dedicated and caring cat sitter.”

“Maria is 5 stars! Took time away from vacation preparing to visit my fur babies.”
About: I've had 5 wonderful dogs (large and small) and 3 sweet cats join our family over the course of 30 years, 10 of which were spent on a NH family farm with goats, chickens and rabbits. I'm familiar with different breeds, different temperments and sensitivities. Have trained our puppies, cared for a dog with allergies requiring meds and have spent quiet, quality time with aging pets. My wonderful lab Juni and I spend lots of time playing and walking on the beach. Friends always welcome! I currently work part time from home. My schedule is flexible and I always make time for big walks and spending time with animals. I'm a wildlife photographer and am sensitive to animal cues, and thier body language. I have a large fenced-in dog friendly yard (48 inch tall picket). I'm 1/4 mile walk from a dog friendly beach and take daily walks there with my lab. Our dog Juni is a big love and happy to host nice friends of all sizes. She adapts to the type of dog she plays with, dialing it down for little or aging ones, and revving it up for large energetic ones. I'm also happy to come to your home if not too far from mine.
About: I’ve had my own dogs my entire life and have taken care of other family members/neighbors dogs and cats while they are away. I love to go for walks and always enjoy taking a dog along with me! I work full time during the week 830-430 with a lunch break which I could run out if needed. I am always free on the weekends, and I usually do spend time on the weekends going on long walks. I am not necessarily looking to take dogs to my home but I am capable of caring for them in your home like you normally do.
About: For the last 9 years, I have watched and doted upon all my friends' and neighbors' dogs. I have watched well over 20 dogs, ranging in ages from 4 months to 15 years old, and loved them like my own! I am active and enjoy taking dogs on long walks and adventures. I communicate well and am always quick to reply. Because my schedule is flexible, I am always available to give your pets the attention they deserve :). Many of the dogs I have taken care of have been shelter adoptees, so I am familiar with many of the behavioral issues that can arise and I can follow training protocols. I love ALL dogs! I have a fully flexible schedule right now after just finishing graduate school and searching for employment. I am available whenever you need, day or night! I am currently only available to watch dogs in a client's home. I am very clean, organized, and respectful of your space. I can do drop-ins, scheduled walks, or overnights depending on your needs.
“Prompt, great communication, and friendly with pets”
About: I've always loved and been the go-to person for friends, family, and neighbors when they need a reliable pet-sitter. Since I was 12 years old I've watched big and small dogs, making sure they get fed, walked, and played with until their parents return. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies and providing a safe, fun environment while you're away. I'm currently a full-time student (some in-person classes, some online/remote) so there are a few times I'll have to be on campus. Besides that I am fully available. I like to feed and walk at the same time every day. On walks I prefer to use a harness instead of a collar, and I airways avoid dog parks.

15. Katrina M.
“Katrina has been taking care of my pets (a dog and 2 cats) for almost 5 years. She is one of the few people I trust entirely. She will love your pets like they are her own, and I truly mean this! She is clean, reliable, trustworthy, active, and an animal person through and through. She won't just take your dog on a walk, she will take them for an ADVENTURE. My own dog loves her (more than me!) and he gets SO excited to see her. He is very high energy and she thoroughly exhausts him, to the point where he returns home very happy and tired. She will ensure each pet gets special attention and is given enough activity and love to keep them happy. Not only that, but she is communicative, responsible, timely, and mature. In 5 years I've never had a single issue or concern. She's always made my life easier and I've felt great knowing my pets were in amazing hands. If you're looking for help with your pets, she is THE person to hire. I've always come back to a cleaner house and happier pets.”

17. Michael B.
“We couldn't be happier with Michael as our dog walker for Odin! From day one, he’s been reliable, punctual, and incredibly caring. Odin absolutely loves his walks with Michael, and it’s clear that Michael truly understands and connects with him. He goes above and beyond, providing not only exercise but also mental stimulation, and always tailors the walks to Odin’s needs and energy levels. Michael’s attention to detail is epic —whether it’s checking Odin’s paws after a walk or sending us a quick update, we always feel at ease knowing our fur baby is in such great hands. It’s a huge relief to know that Odin gets the attention and care he deserves. Highly recommend Michael for anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker!”

“Annaliese is hands down the best pet sitter I could ever ask for! Whenever I leave for a trip, I have complete peace of mind knowing my puppy Hazel is in good hands. Annaliese not only adhered to the schedule and instructions (which were extensive given I have a puppy in training) but also regularly provided updates about my pets, which I found to be very reassuring!! Annaliese is a dedicated, reliable, compassionate, and experienced caregiver for pets. My pup loves her like family!”
