About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 8 years old taking care of the animals in each house on the street! I’ve taken care of all different breeds of dogs so I am open to taking care of whichever furry friend you have! I’m currently working part-time, so I have lots of time to give love to your dogs and cats! I love spending time outside and would love to take your pup for walks! I know every owner has their own rules when it comes to their pets! I love to hear from each family when it comes to their pet’s specific needs and what they prefer!

About: Hi there! My name is Kat, and I have a deep, well-rounded background in animal care. With 3+ years of hands-on experience in animal rescue and 10 years of personal pet sitting (and 22+ years of animal-loving!), I bring calm expertise, safety awareness, and specialized care that goes far beyond standard pet sitting. I'm also a certified Wilderness First Responder and American Red Cross CPR Certified. Rescue Training: My time in animal rescue taught me to read subtle animal body language, prevent stressful situations, and keep pets safe and relaxed in any environment, while also serving as a friend and comfort to animals in need! Medication Administration: I have experience giving oral, topical, and routine medications to a wide variety of animals, ranging from kittens to senior dogs. Experience in All Sizes & Energy Levels: From toy breeds to giant dogs, I understand how to handle different temperaments and physical needs. I love taking high-energy dogs on extensive, engaging walks (especially on our local hiking trails!) to keep them physically exercised and mentally happy. I am a full-time student supporting myself while working toward my paralegal certification. I take my courses online from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. (Monday-Thursday), so I am available for in-home sitting, drop-in visits, or whatever your pet may need! Since I offer only In-House Sitting, Drop-In Visits, and walk services, your pets will receive 1-on-1 attention without leaving the comfort of their familiar surroundings. My priority is maintaining their daily routine while keeping your home secure and your pets safe. With every visit, I will provide consistent photo updates and detailed reports after each drop-in/day! Flexible, personalized pet care (drop-ins & sitting): Regardless of whether it's a quick 30-minute stop-in for food, meds, play, and potty breaks, or an overnight stay, I adapt entirely to your pet’s individual needs and routine. I strive to keep homes tidy, secure, and maintained, reducing travel stress for everyone and helping pets feel their best! Outdoor Safety: During walks and outdoor breaks, safety is paramount- I practice attentive situational awareness and strive to maintain large distances from any off-leash dogs, as well as ensuring your pet is safely and securely harnessed/leashed. Overall Safety Precautions: From my rescue experience, animals are curious!- In this, I ensure all doors, gates, and deadbolts are latched securely during every entry and exit, double-check that food and medications are sealed out of reach, as well as keeping a watchful eye out for subtle changes in pet health or behavior. Home Maintenance/Overall Peace of Mind: During house sits and drop-ins, I am happy to bring in mail, water plants, keep your living spaces spotless, or help with any other tasks.

“Cam is attentive, proactive, and thorough. Our booking occurred during the blizzard, He stayed in constant contact and came to our rescue when we were stranded overseas. Cam is a gem. We will happily book with Cam in the future.”

About: Honoring the joy, energy, and spirit of every dog. Skilled in working with and caring for dogs of all sizes, from giant breeds to toy breeds. Over the past 25+ years, I have shared my life with and cared for a wide variety of dogs, including Newfoundlands, Great Pyrenees, Labrador Retrievers, Chihuahuas, Jack Russell Terriers, and other terrier breeds. This experience has given me a deep appreciation for the unique personalities, temperaments, exercise needs, and communication styles of each dog. My experience includes: • Caring for giant, large, medium, and small breed dogs • Understanding breed-specific behaviors and energy levels • Providing safe, enjoyable walks tailored to each dog’s pace and needs • Reinforcing basic commands and positive behaviors • Managing multi-dog households • Administering medications and following special care instructions • Supporting senior dogs with patience and gentle attention • Caring for puppies and helping maintain routines and consistency • Recognizing signs of stress, discomfort, or illness • Providing plenty of affection, companionship, and individualized attention I believe every dog deserves to feel safe, understood, and loved. Whether your companion is an energetic adventurer, a gentle giant, a curious puppy, or a senior seeking a slower pace, I strive to provide dependable care while honoring their unique personality and spirit. My goal is to make every walk and visit a positive experience that leaves both dogs and their owners feeling comfortable, confident, and cared for. Availability I currently offer midday walks on weekdays and am available for occasional overnight care. I can also accommodate select early morning and evening walks based on scheduling and availability. Whether your dog needs a midday break, companionship while you’re away, or extra care during an overnight stay, I strive to provide dependable, attentive service tailored to your dog’s routine and needs. My goal is to help your pet feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while giving you peace of mind. For walks and outdoor playtime, dogs will be kept on leash unless they are within a securely fenced area or a pet containment system that has been discussed and approved in advance. Your dog’s safety is always my highest priority. Every dog and family has unique needs, and I am happy to discuss customized care arrangements to ensure your pet remains comfortable, safe, and well cared for.

About: I have had dogs, cats, puppies in my life since I was born. I have had the pleasure of training all types of dogs in many different areas. When I was younger my family used to always take trips up to Marthas Vineyard, we always had to leave our dogs at a kennel which we realized later on was not the best thing to do for our dogs. Emotionally/mentally we could tell it had taken a toll on them, so we started leaving them home with Pet Sitters. That was the best decision we had made. I want to be able to provide the same love and care that our pet sitters have provided in the past, but for your pet! Im currently working privately as a Personal Trainer and a Hypnotherapist Practitioner so my schedule is quite flexible. I also offer Reiki for both people and pets (Dogs, Cats, Horses)!!! I don’t typically board pets but would be willing to work with someone if the situation was right. I am also willing and able to crate your pet if thats something you do in your home!

“Absolutely recommend Laura for all your pet needs! She was incredibly communicative from the very start. She was flexible and kind, always making me feel so comfortable my dogs were in great care. I will absolutely be using Laura again and you should too!”

About: I’ve always been surrounded by furry friends! I grew up with two small Yorkshire Terriers, and for the past 7 years, my family has had a sweet terrier mix who I absolutely adore. Over the years, I’ve also helped care for neighbors’ pets and loved every minute of it. Now that I work remotely and spend most of my day at home, I’d love the chance to take a walking break with your dog or stop by to check on your cat. If needed, I’m happy to bring my laptop and work from your place for a while to keep your pet company while still getting things done. I’d love to help make your pet feel loved and cared for! Since starting a remote job, I'm able to leave my desk at home for a bit and drive to wherever I need to go to care for your pet. I'm available M-F during the day to check in, and I'm pretty flexible with time as I have minimal meetings throughout the day. I will treat your home with the utmost respect. I want everything to stay exactly the same as how you left it that morning. I realize it's a big ask to let a stranger in your home while you are not there, but you can have your trust in me that I will put all of my focus on your pet, and make my way back home as soon as my job is done.

“Carlie is FABULOUS! She had quality visits with my two dogs, and provided thorough, insightful honest feedback about how each was doing. One is an elder requiring heart meds. He showed some signs of stress on one of her visits which she described to a T. She had the good judgement to give him a pee and poo break but forego the walk with him. Next visit he was great. Based upon her feedback I felt completely confident that they were in the best possible hands. Carlie is a vet tech, and this added skill/ experience was obvious in how she handled things. She is a woman of kind and gentle temperament and great skill. I could not recommend her more highly. THANK YOU CARLIE!”

“Kim was fantastic and took exceptional care of our cat Cleo! She went above and beyond and even watered our plants on the side, which was hugely helpful. It gave my husband and me such peace of mind knowing everything was in such great hands while we were away. We’ll definitely be reaching out again!”

“Amy visited our house daily to feed and play with Tilly while we were out of town. She provided prompt and friendly communication and made sure everything she needed to care for Tilly was addressed. Amy’s reliability allowed us to relax just that much more on our vacation knowing that our pup was happy in good hands.”

“Stuart took great care of my kitties Mags and Leela while I was away for work -- feeding them, scooping their litterboxes, spending quality time with them, and sending me daily reports with photos. It really put my mind at ease to know they were safe and well cared for. I'll definitely book with Stuart through Rover again, next time I need to take a trip.”
