“Best dog sitter ever! Stephanie took great care of my dog and made her feel like she was on her own little vacation. She sent daily photos and updates and made me feel at ease while I was away!”


“Joyce home sat our pets (1 dog and 3 cats) for three days. She was great with our pets and our stubborn Beagle really warmed up to her. Long dog walks and lots of photos. Joyce his very respectful, kind and left our house in better condition then when she arrived. We will definitely hire Joyce in the future.”


“It is clear that Georgia loves animals. Our dog was well cared for, the house was spotless on our return, and she kept in touch throughout our trip. Would have back in a heartbeat!!”


“Danielle was absolutely amazing! We will continue to ask her to look after our pups for our future trips. She provided us with updates and didn’t mind at all that we had a lot of specific requests regarding the pups food etc. she took perfect care of them and kept them company so we didn’t have to worry at all about them while we were gone.”


“Anna was amazing. I got updates on the morning and evening with pictures of the furkids. She was amazing with my girls. Took them on long walks and gave them tons of attention. The girls are looking forward to their next stay with Anna”


“Rory and Liam made my dogs (and us) feel so comfortable and taken care of while we were gone! We came back to happy healthy dogs and a perfectly clean house and got lots of cute photos and updates along the way. She is respectful and kind and our dogs instantly took to her calm energy. We're pet owners with a lot of rules and instructions and Rory followed every one respectfully and I could tell how happy our dog friends were from her pictures! Can't wait to have Rory pet sit for us again on our next getaway.”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and older pets who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m great at picking up on individual needs—whether that’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, handling clean-up routines, or giving pets the one-on-one attention they deserve. I am free most weekdays after 3pm and open on weekends. I can guarantee you my undivided attention to your pets. I will make sure they are taken care of wonderfully. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean, and calm space with plenty of love and attention. I follow their routines carefully to keep things familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space, follow all instructions, and ensure their pet feels secure and cared for. Clear communication and gentle, attentive care help build trust every step of the way.

About: Animals are children to me. Grew up with many dogs/cats & birds! Offer great at home visits to exercise, play & feed your pets! Strong, driven individual that can handle multiple large dogs at a time. Also have trained many puppies through my youth and adult life, so can handle the little ones too! Respectful to clients and pets alike, understanding the value and security of your home and neighborhood. Will always walk dogs until they poop and pee; will pet and play with them during walks and visits. Please do not hesitate to ask questions or request supplemental services. You will not regret picking me as your animals caretaker!! I am working part time with a flexible schedule, so boarding your dog takes priority. I wake up early each morning and retire around 9p I have many trails in the back of our property, with hills and fields to run in. Dogs are given all the love I can muster in the home and out on walks or hikes! Very safe environment for your dog

About: I have been the go-to pet care taker around the neighborhood forever! I am more than willing to do house sitting, as I feel like the animals are more comfortable that way and I have cats at the house. I work short 4 hour shifts 2 days during the week and then 6 hour shifts on the weekends, so I have plenty of time during the week!! I do not have a fenced in yard but I live in a quiet neighborhood with more than enough space to take a walk. I also have a pretty decently sized backyard!

“Lillian is great! She has watched our 2 dogs and cat 3 times. She always keeps us updated and sends us photos! We always feel better going away knowing the our pets are taken care of.”


“Ariel stayed two nights at my home with my dogs and I am so grateful to have found her. I’m an incredibly anxious dog mom and she is so compassionate and understanding of that and took such great care of my dogs and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. My dogs absolutely love her! I highly recommend her. She’s reliable and communicative and I’m looking forward to having her stay with them again soon!”


“Kasey house/pet sat my 2 cats and chickens on a holiday weekend and did a great job communicating with me. I appreciated the photo updates and she left the house just as I left it! Definitely will reach out again.”


About: When I was growing up my family always had dogs and cats. After I went off to college I adopted a cat named Louie from the local shelter. He just passed away recently at the age of 19. I am missing having a cat around and would love to look after your cat when you’re away. I also have two dogs (I have a senior shepherd mix and a 1.5 year old lab mix). My dogs are my priority so I can’t commit to overnights but with my days free this summer I am available for dog walking, house sitting and cat sitting. I work full-time during the school year but I have the summers off with plenty of free time to spend cuddling with some cats. I’d love to do dog sitting as well but am not sure I can commit to overnights as I have my own two dogs at home who need me but I’m open for daily support such as walks or feeding during the owners’ work hours. My dogs use a long lead out back and aren’t left unsupervised for long. When my cat was alive he had his own separate space away from the dogs as well as easier access to food, water and litter as he was arthritic.

About: I would love to help out with walking and caring for your dog whenever you need it. Here’s what makes my services unique: Experienced Dog Owner: As a dog owner myself, I understand the nuances of canine care and the importance of a loving, safe environment. Versatile Experience: I have experience walking and sitting for a variety of dogs in my neighborhood, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors.

Flexibility: I am very flexible with my time and can adjust my schedule to fit your needs, offering reliable and timely service whenever you require it. Eagerness to Assist: I am genuinely passionate about dogs and eager to assist with any specific needs your pet may have, ensuring they are happy and well-cared for. Choose my pet care services for dependable, compassionate, and personalized care for your furry friend! As a recent graduate, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate ample time to pet care. With my open schedule, I can easily adjust to your pet's needs, whether it's for daily walks, feeding, or playtime. I am available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, making it convenient for you to arrange care at any time. My weekends are also open for extended care, perfect for longer walks, more intensive play sessions, or overnight sitting if needed. My home is pet-friendly with plenty of space for your pet to explore and relax. I ensure a clean and safe environment, free from hazards. I have a fenced yard, perfect for outdoor playtime and exercise. Your dog will have the freedom to run and play in a secure area. I have a friendly Golden Doodle who loves to socialize and play with other dogs, providing great companionship for your pet. If needed, I can easily crate your dog, ensuring they have a cozy and secure space to rest.

“I am so grateful Elijah was able to care for our dog Louie while my husband and I were out of town for the weekend. He was great at keeping us updated on how things were going, touching base several times a day and sending photos. When we arrived home, Louie seemed calm and relaxed. Our home was left neat and tidy. We look forward to working with Elijah again knowing that we can be at ease leaving Louie in his care.”


About: I grew up on a small farm as a child. From very young, I was responsible for mucking stalls on weekends and feeding our horses and family dog. I've have had my own dog/dogs for the last 13 years and can't imagine a life without them. I am either at home with my daughter or working from home while she is at school, so I have lots of time to walk and care for your dog. I go out, for example, to run errands, but would never be leaving your dog for long. We would love to have your well-behaved dog that is used to a younger child (age 11) while you are away or in the area, and would love and cuddle your dog as our own. We would love to hang out with your dog during the day inside or outside on walks as you felt comfortable. At night, I ask that your dog(s) be amenable to either sleeping in a crate or in a bed without barking. Our dog sleeps in an open soft crate--we don't allow dogs on furniture. If we sound like a good fit for you, I would love to talk to make sure we are indeed the right sitter for you. I know that a dog often feels as much a part of a family as a child -- and would be honored to be entrusted with such a responsibility. Thank you. :)

She took the time to make sure he felt safe, comfortable, and loved, and I could tell he was in good hands throughout the entire time I was gone.

South Northfield pet parents share their Rover experiences
Amazing Rover experience with Jen and Jose pmdogsitting at our house this week! Jen really went above and beyond in all the best ways - from sending regular updates, pics, and videos throughout each day to catering to our silly pups moods and adjusting activities according to the weather. Our pup has the best week of her life being spoiled and loved on by this sweet family. I'd rate them 10 stars if I could. Can't say enough wonderful things about how they cared for our dog and keep us informed. ❤️❤️❤️
