Dog Sitting in Rye

About: I bring attentive, knowledgeable care tailored to your specific creature and their specific personality. I've been pet parent to dogs of all sizes, from Chihuahuas to Great Danes to my current Sheepadoodle — there's no dog size or personality that's too much or too little, IMHO. And my experience extends well beyond dogs — cats, snakes, farm animals 🐐, and more. I also happen to share my home with a ball python named Fettuccine Alfredo 🐍, who is a distinguished, low-drama fellow. As a plant parent, I will watch after yours indoor jungles, outdoor gardens, that one fiddle leaf fig you're nervous about. If you need someone who will actually look at your monstera and not just splash water in its general direction, that's me. (My avocado tree, grown from a pit, is thriving. I'm not taking questions.) Housesitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, basic training — I've got you. And if you're going away and need the whole ecosystem looked after, pets, plants, and all, I'd love to meet you. Pet care fits naturally into the rhythm of my week. My mornings are consistently free, which works well for walks and drop-in visits, and I have flexibility on Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends for longer stays or housesitting. On days when I'm teaching in the afternoons and evenings, I'm still available in the mornings — and I keep my schedule intentionally manageable so I'm never stretched too thin across clients. This isn't something I'm squeezing in around a packed schedule — it's something I've made genuine room for. When I'm in your home for drop-in visits or housesitting, I treat it with the same care and attention I'd give my own. That means following your routines exactly as you've set them, keeping things tidy, and making sure your pets are comfortable and unstressed in their own environment. I take detailed notes at meet-and-greets so nothing gets missed while you're away. On walks, I keep dogs leashed and attentive to their individual energy and needs — a reactive dog gets a very different walk than a social butterfly, and I know the difference. I bring over thirty years of animal experience to reading body language and behavior, so I'm not caught off guard by much. My own home includes a ball python and two cats, so I'm well practiced in managing a multi-species household safely and calmly. I don't offer boarding, which means your dog's visit to my home would only ever be for a meet-and-greet in a low-key, relaxed setting. In any situation that feels off — health, behavior, anything — I err on the side of contacting you immediately and getting to a vet if needed. You'll never be left guessing.

“Brooke did a great job visiting our dog, Truth! This was our first time booking someone on Rover. We found Brooke last minute, and she did a great job answering all of our questions and communicated with us very quickly. We were super relieved and would definitely recommend and rebook with Brooke!”

I can currently work all day on weekends and every day after school on weekdays. I will always ask pet parents for a list of specific rules and guidelines to ensure that I provide the best possible care, including instructions for medications and emergency contacts.

About: I love all animals but especially dogs. I’ve surrounded myself with dogs my whole life. I raised a dog from a puppy to an old man. I’ve managed all kinds of special diets and I’ve given dogs insulin injections before. I also used to live on a farm where I took care of 5 dogs.

About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for multiple dogs at once, including both younger and older dogs. I’ve successfully cared for up to 8 dogs at the same time, managing different energy levels, routines, and personalities while making sure each dog gets the attention and care they need. I’m currently working part-time, which allows me to be available for pet care during key times of the day. I’m available on weekdays from 6am–9am for morning walks and check-ins, and again from 7pm–10pm for evening care. focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and any specific needs. I make sure dogs are supervised, secure on walks, and never put in unsafe situations. I also have experience walking dogs while volunteering at a humane society, where I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. In a client’s home, I respect the space and keep everything clean and consistent so pets feel relaxed and at home. I also provide updates so owners feel confident their pet is in good hands.

“Andrea was amazing! She immediately put me at ease when we met her, asked all of the right questions and was so sweet to our two cats. I appreciated Andrea's thorough communication while we were gone (and she even sent me a note the day before we left confirming timing for the next day, which I really appreciate!) She was on-time for our visits and sent lots of info and photos. I will definitely book Andrea to watch our cats again! Thanks Andrea <3”

“It was very lucky to have found Brynne to look after my senior cat for almost a month. Brynne treated my fur baby like her own precious baby. She was caring, conscientious, mindful, always on time, responsive, funny, communicative and I could go on with the superlatives. I want to gatekeep her but everyone should know what a great caretaker she is. Very happy to have found Brynne and will continue to use her exclusively when available since my kitty has special needs. Forever grateful 🙏”

“Elena was a great pet sitter, I absolutely loved her! She took care of everything my cat needed and that we agreed. She took the time to get to know him and the attention was all focused on him. It was the best sitter I had so far. Definitely booking again! Thanks Elena, it is so great to have peace of mind even leaving the little one.”

About: I've grown up with and was surrounded by various different animals. I've walked dogs on and off since I was around 14, as well as house/dog sat. I've worked at a few dog daycare/boarding facilities, so I am very familiar with handling many dogs. I have my own dog and I foster dogs from time to time. I do typically work 6am-2pm during the week, besides Tuesday and Saturday which I would be available most of the day. Not available Sundays. I live in an apartment. The backyard is unfenced. I have two ferrets, a cat, and a dog. It's a quiet neighborhood, next to a few schools. Also near a few parks.

About: Hi! I grew up surrounded by animals—cats, dogs, hamsters, and even birds—so caring for pets has always been a part of my life. For the past 5 years, I’ve gained professional experience caring for pets of all kinds, providing walks, playtime, feeding, and even specialized care for newborns. I understand that each pet is unique, and I’m dedicated to making them feel loved, safe, and happy while their owners are away. You can trust me to treat your furry (or feathered) family member as if they were my own! I currently work from home, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pet. My main goal is to find playmates for our dog, Roma. I’d love to take her—and your furry friend—to the park so they can enjoy playing together. I’m available to provide attention, playtime, and care to ensure your pet feels happy and loved. In my apartment, I have toys, beds, and plenty of space to make pets feel comfortable and at ease. I also strive to create an environment where they can relax and enjoy their time. Additionally, I’m in the process of looking for a house with a backyard to offer even more space for pets to play and explore.
