“Kathy is an absolute gem and I feel so blessed to have found her. She is so caring, responsive, and took amazing care of my baby girl. Snickerdoodle, her pup, is the sweetest boy in the world and gets along with everyone. My girl felt like she was a honeymoon vacation and that gave me so much peace of mind.”
“Kathleen was a wonderful sitter for our senior bichon/poodle. She asked lots of questions about his personality and preferences so he could have the best visit possible in her home. He seemed very comfortable with her and we will definitely contact her again when we need a dog sitter.”
“Lindsay was great with Luna. She was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up and kept in touch during our vacation with updates and pictures of Luna. I know that Luna was happy and well-cared for, and she enjoyed playing with Lindsay's dog. Highly recommend!”
“Myleigh is amazing. I’ve had her watch my puppy twice now. My puppy really loves being there with her. She gets super excited to see her when I’m dropping her off. Myleigh is very accommodating and always gives me updates on how my pup is doing. Definitely will be booking her again.”
“This was our first time using Rover. Our Cavapoo Clementine likes to be around people and can get nervous in new places. She did great with Lori and Billy. They are very, very nice flexible and accommodating. Great care for our dog and lots of communication with us. Now that she’s back home we think Clementine is missing her new friends! Highly recommend Lori!”
“Every time we book with Ariane we know our dogs are safe a well taken care of, and we can enjoy our vacations without worry! Our dogs have a great time in her space, with her family and her two lovely dogs. I highly recommend her services and will continue to book with her going forward.”
About: I got my certification in dog grooming from Animal Behavior college, and have been grooming for about 2 years. I try to keep my clients pups on their same daily rutine. I have good sized yard that is partially fenced in, so I keep dogs on a long leash while roaming outside. I do not leave them alone out side in the yard. Along with walks, the dog park is also something I can do if requested. My schedule is flexible and I work with my clients when it comes to scheduling. If you have a special request, please ask. I am accommodating and will do my best to make it work for you and your pup! Hope to hear from you and our furry friends soon!
About: Hi! I’m Kelsey—new to Gloucester and excited to connect with the community 😊 I previously ran a dog walking business in Providence, RI and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m happy to provide references! I offer dependable, loving dog walking and in-home sitting with a unique perk—direct beach access right on Wingaersheek Road near Coffins Beach 🌊🐾 Your dog will enjoy: • Daily beach walks with plenty of space to run and play • Fetch time (ball or frisbee!) • Optional swimming for water-loving pups • Fresh air, exercise, and a calm, cozy home environment I treat every dog like my own and always send updates/photos so you feel at ease while you’re away. I also have two cats at home, so dogs should be comfortable around cats. I’d love to chat and see if it’s a great fit for you and your pup! I maintain an active, consistent daily routine and plan my schedule around the dogs in my care. I’m typically out for a Pilates class from 8:45–9:45am, and occasionally run a quick errand afterward—but I’m happy to bring dogs along for pet-friendly outings like local farm stands or errands when appropriate. I’m available for walks late morning, mid-day, and again in the afternoon/evening after the gym. My schedule allows for multiple walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day, and I always prioritize the needs and routine of each individual dog. I provide a safe, calm, and loving home environment where dogs are treated like family. I’m very attentive to each dog’s needs, energy level, and routine, and I always prioritize their comfort and safety. Dogs in my care get plenty of exercise, whether that’s structured walks, beach time, or play, along with downtime to relax in a cozy setting. I’m experienced with a range of temperaments and can adjust to puppies, active dogs, or more relaxed/senior dogs. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions (feeding schedules, medications, crate use if needed), and I always provide regular updates and photos so you feel confident your dog is in great hands. I do have two cats at home, so dogs should be comfortable around cats.
“Alyssa and Zach took great care of our dog. They sent pictures, and we saw that she had wonderful time walking on the beach. When we got her back, she was happy and relaxed. They also picked her up and dropped her off, even though it was quite a distance for them to drive. I should also mention that they agreed to take our dog on a very short notice - the same day when I contacted Alyssa. Very accommodating and punctual. We will be happy to let Alyssa and Zach take care of our pup again!”
About: Hi there! I’m Maria - a lifelong dog lover with a passion for caring for pups of all ages and personalities. Whether you’re heading out of town, working long hours, or just need an extra hand, I’m here to make sure your furry friend gets the love, attention, and care they deserve. Available daily for daily pet sitting or overnights. Whether you need care for your pet for just a few hours or extended periods of time my schedule is flexible. I work from home so I am always available to your pet. I have 2 acres of land in West Gloucester. I love to walk the neighborhood with the dogs and enjoy outdoor play time. I love to spend time with the pets
“Bean, our 13 year old pug, had a great stay with Gienna! We got lots of updates/photos and all communication was excellent. We appreciated how much extra patience and love she gave our little old pug.”
“Mike was really kind and communicative, he made sure to check in with us throughout our trip. It was nice knowing that ruckus was being cared for as if he was one of theirs!”
“Lorraine was the best! Have left our Cooper with other doggie daycares but have never felt so strongly that he was in the best possible place. He surely was treated like a member of her family! Daily pictures and videos gave us the reassurance that we could relax celebrating our “50 th” Anniversary in Aruba!! Highly recommend Lorraine and her beautiful family!❤️❤️”
“We've used Hyesun to sit for us several times now. She takes excellent care of our dogs, walks them several times daily, has a clean, safe, house and makes the effort to send photos and keep us in the loop. I really cannot recommend her enough. I'm sure we'll be going back to her for our future sitting needs.”

Rockport dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kimberly was very easy to work with, being both very responsive and accommodating of our schedule. We did a meet and greet at her home ahead of confirming our reservation and quickly realized that Kimberly loves having dogs around and is very active and happy to be outdoors in all weather. During our vacation week we received daily updates including photos and videos of our dog both in Kimberly's home and yard, as well as on their regular walks to the nearby beaches etc. despite the heavy snowfall. From the photos we could tell that our dog was totally at ease, living her best life and well taken care of by Kimberly. A very positive experience for us and our dog. We hope to be able to work with Kimberly again for our next vacation
Myleigh was so great with Cooper! Cooper is a 13-year old black lab mix who can get anxious sometimes. When I brought him to her, he barely even noticed me, totally engaged in greeting her and went along so willingly into her house, never even glancing back at me :-) She has that kind of energy. She sent me pictures, one of him curled up with her cat and he looked so happy just hanging out with the cat! I was surprised because he's never been around cats but he loves attention and cuddling (it even made me think about getting a cat lol!) Seeing that pic melted my heart and I wasn't nervous about him at all after that, which made the overnight so much better. I highly recommend Myleigh to watch your furbabies and will definitely reach out to Myleigh in the future!
