About: Ever since I was a child I have either had my own pets or have sat for friends and family. I have the ultimate respect for all living creatures! You can rest assured that I will look after your fur-babies as if they were my own!!! ♥️♥️♥️ Tuesday through Saturday I do work during the day but I am free after 7pm or so… I do make my own schedule so I can definitely adjust it as needed. I will stay at your home so that you can be assured that your fur-baby will be comfortable in their own environment. All that I need is a comfy recliner or couch!
“We had a great experience with Addison. She was incredibly sweet, caring, and easy to communicate with and responsive. She was also very flexible, which made coordinating everything stress-free. Most importantly, my dog came home happy and clearly well cared for, which says everything. I would absolutely book with Addison again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind sitter.”

“An enormous thank you to Michelle for her kindness and care of our aging Maggie. It was just a short week later that we discovered Maggie would have to be put down due to discovery of her advanced cancer. MIchelle provided a safe, loving environment for Maggie to visit when we needed some help. We are so gratefull and were touched by her compassion.”
“Amanda, Thank you for taking care of our big pup, Roscoe!! He had a great stay and by the photos sent - he felt 100% at home. We will most definitely rebook the next time! Thanks!!! Sheila”

“Alysia’s service is top notch! Her family was so caring and treated my pup like family. Our pup came home content and he had so much fun. Great communication and updates. Thank you!!!”

“Kari was wonderful with Hazel. I could tell Hazel adjusted well and enjoyed her time with Kari and her family by the photos and updates Kari provided along the way. I would leave Hazel with Kari again knowing that she would be well cared for.”

“Recently relocated back to the area and needed to find a dog sitter for my 8lbs Chi/Terrier mix. Have always had great experiences with Rover.com, but this time we hit the jackpot!! Perfect family to care for my little guy while I get away for a little me time. Knowing he’s well taken care of and loved.”
“Casey and Phil were wonderful boarding our dog Millie, giving great photos and updates and always making sure we were comfortable with everything going on at their house. They made sure she got along with the their dog and made sure she was well loved with plenty of attention. We had to last minute extend our trip and they were so gracious to accommodate the extra time. We will definitely be keeping them in mind for future trips!”

“Ciara is great. Oliver loves going to her house. He looks forward to all his friends, even the cats which is amazing! She sends me updates every day with a picture so I know he is doing good and to help me not miss him to much.”

“Christian was absolutely amazing. The daily updates were so appreciated, as I was so nervous on leaving my puppy alone for the first time. My flight also landed later than anticipated and he was kind enough to extend the drop off time to work better for my lateness.. my puppy came back grinning with a smile from ear to ear, I know he was properly cared for. Highly recommend and would love to use him again in the future !”

“I felt very confident that Sassy would be well taken care of at Nadias and she was. I will definitely use her again in the future. She was very communicative sent pictures. Best of all I think Sassy had a ball. She enjoyed playing w/Nadia's 2 dogs. And she loved having Nadia's kids to play with also. She has a big beautiful back yard for the dogs to play in. I highly recommend Nadia.”

“Sunny is our go-to for the past 3-4 years whenever we need to board Lucky. Every time Lucky went straight into their house without even looking back at us. He is definitely spoiled when staying with them. We really would wish to continually have Sunny to watch for Lucky, but sadly we are relocating to the west coast. Lucky will miss them so much!”

“Anne is an amazing dog sitter. Kept me in the loop the whole time while she was taking care of Grusha. Her dogs are just precious. Was very understanding about specific feeding instructions. Would definitely recommend!”

“Chris and Whitney were fantastic! I will definitely bring my dogs to them again! I was very hesitant to board my dogs because my older dog has never been with anyone but family but they are so kind and kept me updated without me even asking! They put me and the dogs at ease!”

“Jacqueline was wonderful with both of our dogs! She treated them like family, sent pics and videos and provided great care. Not having to worry about our fur babies made our trip even better. Her home is super dog friendly including a safe and spacious fenced in yard. I recommend Jacqueline and plan on using her dog hospitality and for my dogs again in the future. Superb!”

“Jen and Jon were wonderful sitters for our dog. This was the first time leaving her with a sitter and they made me feel very comfortable. I could tell Tootsie was well taken care of and receiving lots of love with each daily update. Drop off and pick up was easy and Jen responded quickly to any questions I had.”

“Eve was great! She and her family clearly care about the pets they sit. I received photos and updates daily about how Coco was doing and it was obvious she felt welcome and at home. Eve was flexible and accommodating about pick-up and drop-off times and made the entire process a breeze. Will definitely trust her with Coco again. Thanks Eve!”


About: I have taken care of pets starting at the age of 9 when my parents got me my first puppy. I had raised and trained him on my own, had responsibility of restocking and refilling food and water, as well as grooming, bathing, and bathroom use. Flash forward to when it came to my own dogs senior years, I had learned to understand the extra care that comes along with that. At the age of 13 I had started pet sitting for family and friends. Whether it be walking next door to my neighbors, taking care of a pet in my home, or having my mom drive me someone’s household, I’ve always enjoyed taking care of and playing with pets. At the age of 16 when I had gotten my license, I had started offering to do overnights at peoples homes for their pets and had driven myself to homes multiple times in a day to care for them. I think it’s important to be present, playful, and all around loving to each and every pet. I love to meet new pets and prioritize creating comfort between the animal and I. I’m currently working full time but have weekday evenings open and weekends open!! I have pets myself as home and pet care fits into my routine very naturally. Thankfully I have family to help out with my pets when I’m not there and can give full care to other pets when needed! I have grown up having dogs my entire life (Also having chickens, geese, and bunnies). Being a pet owner gives perspective in terms of creating a sound environment. When I go on vacation or need someone to care for my animals, I look for qualities that many others would. Trust, responsibility, and genuine care. When roles reverse, I behold these qualities to ensure that whoever I am caring for receives this level of comfort from these qualities.
South Dartmouth pet parents share their Rover experiences
Austin was amazing with my two dogs! He was so attentive and spent lots of time outdoors with them! I do not like to leave them with anyone, and he made me feel comfortable right away and that’s huge for me! My dogs come home exhausted after a 3 day stay with Austin! He sent so many pictures and it made me happy to know that he took the time and effort with watching them and keeping them safe. He listened to every detail I messaged him about and had so much patience, especially knowing I was nervous. Our flight was delayed and he had no problem with keeping them for an extra time period! My dogs came home super happy and tired.
