“Cody and Sarah are extremely reliable, timely, responsible and take great care of our pup while we work! Communication is always great and quick. They are very flexible with our schedules. Also they take phenomenal pictures of our dog that make me smile every time!”
“Many thanks to Darnell for taking good care of our two cats again. Love how even our shy guy hangs out when Darnell's around :) I always know our house and cats are in good hands when Darnell visits!”
“Emily is exactly what I want a pet sitter to be. She asked questions, followed instructions, and gave our boys comfort, along with the necessities, while we were gone. Takes an extra worry off when traveling to know our furry family is safe and loved. Highly recommend. Thanks Emily!”
“Sammy did a great job looking after my energetic kitty for a few days. She came twice a day and played with her and sent me many pictures! I was nervous about leaving my kitty for the first time, and she put my mind at ease. Will book again!”
“Ellis helped us out in a pinch when we were in the middle of changing jobs! Our new puppy loved him and we trusted him from the start. He's a great guy, good with dogs, and I highly recommend his service!”
About: I'm a responsible, communicative, and kind graduate student with over a decade of experience caring for dogs. I've worked with rescue pups and dogs of all ages—from 8-week-old puppies to 13-year-old seniors. I treat every dog like my own, with patience, love, and lots of attention to their unique needs. My current schedule is very flexible, and I will be in town for most of the summer so I can hang out with your pup whenever! Once the fall starts, I’ll be in classes again but will have flexibility throughout the day and particularly on the weekends. Your dog’s safety and comfort is my utmost concern! I completely understand that your dog is like your child, so you want to make sure that they are safe and in the best care possible. Because of that, I will defer to your rules about where your dog can go, when they can be off leash, etc. You know them best, and I trust you!
“Kathryn took care of our rather antisocial and uncooperative cat during our vacation, coming twice a day to medicate her. It was not easy, but Kathryn was great about communicating with us and she creatively problem-solved to get the job done. We were super impressed with her reliability, patience and kindness. Highly recommended!! We are very grateful to her.”
About: I grew up on a farm and have taken care of a variety of animals. I worked in veterinary medicine for 8 years and spent two years in high school working for a dog and cat boarding facility. Currently a medical student, I have a lot of flexibility. I’m able to complete morning, midday, and/or evening walks. I am often available on weekends. I have a fenced in porch and can take dogs out on leash. I live close by to the rail trail and in a very walkable neighborhood. I can administer topical, oral, and subcutaneous medications.
“Armani is great! She has good energy, is attentive, and very considerate. I recommend you giving her a chance as we were grateful for her assist with our puppy! We only stopped working with her due to her schedule needs, but we'd happily consider her again!”
“Nicole is a thoughtful and thorough pet sitter. She is extremely reliable and did a wonderful job with our cat. She had to battle a snow storm to provide pet care and didn't miss a beat. Thank you Nicole.”
About: Hi! I’m Jill and am very experienced with doggos! I work full time in dog rescue and am looking to take on rover clients to help support that work. I have experience with all ages/sizes/breeds/temperaments! I am certified in Animal Behavior Management and love catering your pet’s activity and enrichment to their personality. Before working in dog rescue, I was a wildlife biologist for 10 years and still very much enjoy spending time outdoors and hiking - especially with dogs! Before that, I worked at a doggy day care and veterinary clinic. Animals have always been a central part of my life and I take the responsibility of their care very seriously! I work in animal rescue which allows me a somewhat flexible schedule. If I have a pet booking, your animal’s needs will be my first priority! I care for pets in the way they would like to be cared for. I love getting to know an animal and catering my services to them.
“Laura is fantastic and super awesome with Tüks! This last visit was kind of spur of the moment and Laura was super accommodating. We highly recommend Laura as does Tüks. Thank you!!!”
“Lillian was an amazing and attentive cat sitter! She completed the daily drop ins and played with my cat and gave her lots of love. My cat can get really anxious when she's left alone but when I came back home she was at ease and happy. I am so thrilled with the care she got from Lillian!”
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. Looking to get my own, but in the meantime, would be excited to watch yours. I have plenty of toys and treats and I’m happy to do anything that makes you feel comfortable to keep your furry friend happy! I currently work at Dartmouth Hitchcock full-time which is why I typically can only watch during the weekend. My flexibility means I can also sometimes work remote. Depending on your preference, I’m sure we can work out something great. I am happy to do anything that makes you feel comfortable. I love to go for a walk, so I’m happy to take them down to the small park that we have. Or if they’re not much of a walker, I’m happy to sit and relax as long as they know how to pick a TV show.
“Chili has been with us for five years, but this is the first time we’ve left her alone. Joseph did a great job taking care of her, and we really enjoyed the pictures he sent!”
“Kyra was wonderful! She checked in on my cat while I was away for vacation and it was so reassuring knowing that he was in such good hands. She was very proactive in asking about leaving the air on for him (as while I was gone there was a heat wave!) and made sure he had plenty of water when she saw him. I really appreciated that she spent time playing with him and showing lots of affection. Thanks, Kyra!!”
