“Amazing! Jacqueline sent me pics and updates and my cats were really comfortable with her, I thought one of my cats was going to stay hiding but she came out and ate! Highly recommend, will be booking with Jacquline again.”

“Jacey is awesome! She took such great care of my 8-year old German Shepherd while we were away at Disney for Thanksgiving week. She was super reliable with her timing, feeding schedule, and walks. So sweet, kind, and helpful, everything you hope for when leaving your fur babies with a sitter. Thank you, Jacey, for taking such good care of Letty! She was so happy when I got back. And an extra thank you for putting out the recycling and trash for me! I’ve used Rover for a while and always found great, trusted sitters and Jacey is definitely one of the best 🙂”

“Heather was absolutely amazing! Our senior cat recently started on insulin shots twice a day and we were nervous about leaving him. We were put at ease as soon as we met Heather. She came twice a day promptly at the times he needed his meds and cared for him as if he was her own pet! We got updates and photos at each visit and it seems like our old kitty fell into a nice, relaxed routine with her😊. She did an amazing job keeping his days as “normal” as possible for him and she went way above and beyond keeping his entire space (and ours) tidy. I wouldn’t hesitate for a minute to use Heather’s services again when we travel. I felt very comfortable having her in my home and with my pet. Thank you!”

About: I have been volunteering with animal rescues since I was in high school along with dogwalking in my hometown. I have spent the past three years in college volunteering with the local animal shelter walking their dogs to relieve them of time in the shelter. On these walks I take the time to work on basic skills and socialization. I am completing my MBA this summer, and would love to help you out with any of your pet care needs! I am finishing up my MBA at Bryant University leaving me with an open availability days outside of my classes which are Mondays and Wednesdays. I have previously handled multiple different dogs in different situations. I always aim to make the animal feel the most comfortable in every situation. I plan to care for your pets on your own terms whether that be in your own backyard or on walks near your house.
About: I am a certified veterinary technician with a specialty in pet behavior. I have been a veterinary technician for 30 years. I am qualified as a pet trainer and I am certified as a pet behavior consultant. I am also a certified pet massage therapist and Reiki practitioner. I am capable of giving medications and any extra TLC that is needed. I love all aged pups from house training puppies to golden aged seniors and anything inbetween. I have trained and raised all typed of pets from cats and dogs to rabbits, ferrets, birds, and rats. Pets have always been and will always be welcome in my home. Animals are my life love. Having extra furry friends around me during the day is always a pleasure. I work from home and can take a break when I wish therefore my ability to do drop ins can be arranged around owners schedule Safety is a priority. All escape routes must be identified to me before the visit Cats are not small dogs, trust with them is an ongoing thing, and I take my time go slow around cats, and let them investigate me
About: I’m an experienced rescue pet owner who’s fostered both cats and dogs, including my own behaviorally challenged dog. I grew up caring for a senior dog with medical needs, so I understand the importance of patience, attention to detail, and compassion. Through my rescue work, I’ve provided both cat and dog sitting and am excited to offer that same loving care to more pets and families! Pet care best fits into my daily schedule during lunch breaks and anytime after 4 PM! I can be flexible as well depending on the time slots needed and my class schedule. Safety is always my main priority. Through my experience working with flight-risk fosters and animals with a variety of behavioral and medical needs, I’ve learned how to create secure environments for every pet in my care. I’m attentive to details, careful with routines, and always mindful of each animal’s comfort and safety

“Amazing amazing amazing care from Kayla! Daisy was visibly comfortable and happy in all of her update pics! Kayla was on time and had no problem following instructions. She went above and beyond by feeding our bunny in the morning too, and it was such a good feeling to know both of them were in good hands. She’s definitely made repeat customers out of us!”

“Justina was EXCELLENT. She was very communicative and prompt. She treated my cat very well and kept me up to date on everything that was going on. I will definitely be reaching out next time I am out of town!”

About: Growing up, my family owned an amazing, but traumatized dog that tended to be aggressive towards strangers. Now, I help care for two very timid, anxious dogs so I understand and can manage dogs of all sorts of temperaments. Old dogs will always have a special place in my heart. I am currently working around 15 hours a week serving, so my schedule is very open! I have no trouble traveling daily and I love to be actve regardless of rain, sleet, snow, or heat! First of all, I prioritize giving all dogs and cats the attention they need, nothing breaks my heart like a lonely pet. Depending on the household, I will manage toy organization and uphold routines in place while you are on vacation or at worn. From medication to routine freeding and walking, I am an experienced pooper scooper willing to get the job done!
“Carley took excellent care of my kitties while I was away for the first time since moving to a new home! She followed my info for feeding, playing etc to the tee and sent lots of photos during her visits. I could tell both my cats were super comfortable with her and were getting lots of love while I was away 🥰”

“Madelin was great! I had to book someone while I was out of state because my other sitter (friend) wasn’t reliable, and Madelin was able to accommodate and give some love to my kitty:) Very communicative, efficient and kind. 10/10 recommend”


About: I’ve had pets of all kind my whole life, including dogs, cats, horses, and fish. I currently have just 2 cats, but I’ve owned dogs before and I have lots of pet sitting and walking experience as a caregiver. Your pet will be loved and safe with me! Prior to graduating this past December, I worked part time as a pet caregiver and would walk dogs in the mornings or on work from home days. Now that I’ve graduated and am waiting for my new job to start in April, I’m able to take a little time off and be a pet caregiver full time. I have very flexible hours and my only time conflicts are if I have another caretaker booking already. I have lots of experience and am very patient with pets of all kind. I’ve found that having a calm demeanor and soft touch goes a long way to helping me build trust with the pets I care for. But im also physically strong enough to keep larger pets like big dogs from barreling through the door or pulling out of my hands when leashed. I am very communicative with the pet parent and will message with any concerns or questions, always listening to what the pet parent requests for their fur babies. Your pet’s needs will always be heard and met! My past 2 years of experience has mostly been walking and drop-in visits, but I’m open to pet sitting and potentially boarding under the right circumstances. I unfortunately don’t have a yard but I am active and would love to take your dog with me to parks and trails for lots of outings.

“Maureen visited with Chloe 3 times last week. She was very calm and confident from the beginning. We knew they would become friends quickly. One thing that Maureen did that was impressive was kneeling down to Chloe’s level when they first met. Chloe was barking as usual, but then stopped, sniffed , and turned around as if to say “you’re a friend”. We have made plans to have Maureen return on our next vacation.”
