We could not recommend Bri enough to anyone needing their pets looked after while away! Bri was not only able to accommodate our last minute request when our family had to go out of town, but she was incredible with our dogs! Between daily message and photo updates of the pups, we could not have asked for anything else to feel more comfortable leaving our dogs back home. We will happily be using her again in the future!!

Another perfect stay on short notice. Annabelle really enjoys her time with Michelle and I have complete confidence in Annabelle's care when I am gone. Seriously, if you ever need someone to sit with your pet while you are gone Michelle is the absolute best option!

I had a very positive experience with Evelin. It was my first time using Rover and it couldn't have gone better. I especially loved that she sent pictures multiple times a day of the dogs and that she came in more than once during the day to check on them. She was very respectful and professional and made the experience one that I will be happy to repeat.

Marisa was AMAZING. We have four dogs that are a little spicy and needy. She made sure they were all looked after exactly like we asked and I’m pretty sure they were all having such a good time they didn’t notice we were even gone. Great communication as well with the perfect amount of updates and photos. She was also super accommodating to our travel schedule which was awesome. 10/10 recommend.

Penelope is awesome! She took great care of my fur babies while I was on vacation. She followed my notes and ensured medication was given on time. I was able to truly relax knowing they were in her care.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and got my first dog sitting gig when I was 10. Since then I’ve taken care of all ages of pups including senior dogs treating each dog like royalty. I work from home so I am always around and have dogs of my own who I walk 3 to 4 times a day - I’m quite flexible with my schedule. I have a house in a dog friendly neighborhood and sidewalks. I can easily crate your dog or separate for feedings etc. also have a lovely back yard for some afternoon sun bathing!

About: I've had animals in my house for over 20 years. Spanninng a cockatiel, a cat, five dogs and my clown fish who are going on 18 years old. Once, I drove the bird into the Tuft's vet school in a blizzard on a weekend night. Another time I took one of the clown fish into the Tufts satellite clinic on a Sunday because he hadn't eaten for days. Both pets lived to tell their tale. Cats are great, I love how they set the rules :) But dogs are where my heart is, especially Airedales, and rescue dogs are a labor of love! My priorities start with my pet family, unless I'm taking care of yours. Then, your pets become my priority. I work from home most of the time and that allows me to have the ultimate flexibility in my schedule so that I can care for your pets as appropriate, on their time. I've raised my dog training game significantly over the past few years, attending regular sessions with my trusted trainer, Baptiste. Our work has focused on highly reactive dogs and also puppy training. Like kids, pets can do no wrong. I do not get upset with them, I just clean the mess ;)

About: I’ve cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors for years, including high-energy dogs, shy rescues, and senior animals needing extra TLC. I’m patient, dependable, and happy to adapt to your pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pup loves cuddles, long walks, or just needs some TLC, I’ll treat them like family. Since I work from home and do school online, I have plenty of time to give your pup lots of love, care, walks, and attention I have a secure fenced yard and 5 friendly dogs of my own, so if your pup enjoys socializing, they’ll have playmates. If not, I can easily keep them separate and make sure they’re comfortable

I cannot say enough about Anthony. We went away for a week and both of our dogs have severe separation anxiety. Anthony not only loved and cared for them, my Shih tzu hasn’t displayed his former bad habits (taking toilet paper off of the roll and running, chewing shoes). Anthony is THE BEST and I will use him again. Anthony thank you so much, words cannot describe how appreciative we are.
