“Jenna did a fantastic job watching our dog while we were away! She checked in multiple times every day, each with an in depth summary and pictures. Jenna also promptly communicated any questions. We knew our pet was in good hands.”

About: I am a full-time working mom with 2 kids, 3 cats and 1 dog. I have years of experience walking, dog/cat sitting for friends, neighbors, family. I couldn't have a dog as a kid b/c we lived in an apartment so the first chance I was able to get my own dog, my husband and I adopted Buttons in 2009 when she was 4 months old and then Marty in 2013 at 10 weeks old. We also have 3 cats, Buttercup, Sox and Murray. We lost our 2 senior cats, Bruschi in 2024 and Seymour in 2019 at 18 and 12 yrs old. My soul dog, Buttons just passed away in March at 15 yrs old and for the last 9 months I administered daily subcutaneous fluids as well as supplements, probiotics, antibiotics on a daily basis to help support her kidney disease. I built her a wheelchair because she had arthritis but loved to walk and turned my old stroller into a dog stroller for her during her last days. I have another senior dog, Marty who is 12 and although doesn't take daily medication is a very anxious guy so learning to adapt and make his life amazing has been a learning curve since Buttons was such a laid back girl. I feel that dogs and cats and animals in general are an important part of your life, they teach us things that humans cannot and I feel that in my soul. I would be humbled to take care of your pets so that you do not have to worry at all. I work from home and typically can get away during a lunch break. I have the summers off and am pretty available during the weekdays. I have a fenced yard, I have experience walking an aggressive, anxious dog as well as a senior dog who needs to go slow and at her own pace. I have cats and am very conscious, even a bit paranoid at times of doors being left open or the window screens not being secure so I am always double checking those things.
About: Dogs have been one of the great loves of my life. I've been taking care of them, and doing life with them for years :) I currently work full time and will be a graduate nursing student in the fall, pet care fits into my routine as a side gig! I care for pets by treating them as if they are a loved member of my own family, caring for their individual needs always :)

About: My pet care experience has seen be learn a number of skills such as monitoring your pets behavior to understand when a social situation may become too stressful. Other skills I have acquired are following directions for specific diets, seeing through that each pet gets exactly what their owners ask for. I have also gained experience in grooming as well. Right now, I can work any day of the week, Monday through Friday, and as for times I am very flexible, I can start as early as you need and keep your pet until whenever you want! I am very attentive when it comes to pets. With my previous work experience, it was necessary for me to stay alert, as to make sure no pets ended up harming each other, or to make sure they weren’t doing something they’re not supposed to.
About: We are a family of 4 who love dogs and treat our guests like our own. After our last dog passed a couple of years ago, we’ve enjoyed the occasional pet sitting for our friends so much that we decided to do it more often. Dogs will get plenty of attention, playtime and exercise here. Let us know their needs and we will strive to meet them and make them feel at home. We are available for weekend, extended weekend and occasionally longer stays as a i work from home every Monday and Friday at a minimum. Dogs will be walked whenever needed. We only take 1-2 dogs at a time to ensure that your furry friends get the care and attention they deserve. We strive to accommodate our guests’ needs and make them feel like part of a family while you are away. Our side-walked neighborhood is very safe for dog walks, with great hiking trails nearby if our guests enjoy that as well.
“I can't recommend Teaghan enough! I am a first time Rover user and I was super anxious about it. I had another sitter booked originally but they were flaky so I had to find someone else last minute and Teaghan was sooo easy to work with and accommodating. I am so happy I found her and would definitely use her again in the future :)”

“Lauren has been very responsive throughout the booking process, flexible as our work schedules change, prompt, and most importantly, our puppy loves her! I would highly recommend her for pop in visits and/or walks.”

About: Work from home so have lots of time for walks and snuggles! I have extensive dog sitting experience but no pets of my own, so I give your pooch undivided attention! Work from home so very flexible for dog walking as needed. Love the company and happy to have your fur baby sit by me at my desk and remind to get up and go walking on regular intervals! We have a fenced in yard, and plenty of walking options in suburban and town forest settings. I provide feed and treats as instructed. Unlimited hugs and cuddles!
“Wendy is a great cat sitter and very dependable & trustworthy. She is my go-to person when I have to travel out of state. She also is very patient with my special needs kitty.”

About: I’ve walked/sat for dogs since I was a kid. I’ve grown up with a dog and now have my own at the age of 25 I am in Norwood living with my partner and looking for work, I decided to put a profile together and take care of pets to earn some money in the mean time. They’re allowed all the free play space in the open living area. Lots of space to run around. We’re close to a field for fetch and walks and I am more than happy to drive to a fenced in dog park. I have a vehicle and can drive to your home as well to hang out in the pets home if need be. I trained my dog by myself she is very responsible. She is energetic but kind and cuddly. She knows how to sit, come, stay, play dead, sit pretty, give paw, and loves fetch
About: I had a beloved 80lb boxer named Griffey for 10 years. He was a great dog with a lot of energy, and the perfect big brother to my 3 little children. I have walked family and friends’ dogs in the past and decided to open up my services to others. I am a stay at home with 3 kids in elementary school. It’s been a few years since Griffey’s passing and I miss that puppy interaction! I would love to take your dog for a walk or enjoy some outdoor play in your yard. Any week day 9am-3pm. I will enter a home with care as if it was my own. My main focus is caring for your pet while they enjoy some fresh air and exercise during the day. I understand the working day can be tough so I am flexible with weekdays and times.
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I’m the proud owner of a golden. We walk 3-4 miles a day in the woods behind my house. My cousin has my dogs sister and we have weekly play dates to keep them together! My sister also has an American bully and I love breed! He often comes over for sleep overs and he is my best running buddy! Pet care is extremely important to me! I start my day with play time and long walks! I also think it is very important to keep my dog socialized I put her in daycare once a week to keep her comfortable with all dogs. My day always end with play time typically fetch outside and snuggles on the couch! My dog Rollie is my best friend. I work from home 2 days a week and either my husband or I are home early the other days. This allows for a lot of working from the deck sitting in the sun! I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I would love to set up a meet and greet so we can all get to know each other. Looking forward to adding a friend for Rollie on our nature walks!

“Zachary took care of our pup Crumbs during the day while we were at work. He was always on time, communicative, and extremely attentive with Crumbs during their visits. Zachary made sure to play with Crumbs and get him exercise outside which we greatly appreciated! We felt extremely comfortable having Zachary take care of him - he is a very trustworthy sitter and we would reach out to him again anytime.”

About: Please read through my profile before reaching out to make sure we sound like the perfect fit. I require a meet and greet for all new clients! Sometimes it’s hard to find time between kids/dogs/life so I recommend reaching out as early as possible. I think it’s very important to make sure everyone is comfortable before booking! Hi! My name is Jenn and I am a stay at home mom with two daughters. I want to share a little about our family and what your pup can expect during a stay in our home! Leaving our beloved pets in the care of someone else can be stressful. I have definitely shed a few tears when leaving my dogs in the care of someone else! I take this into account when caring for someone else’s pet. Your dog will receive a warm and happy welcome into our home as I treat each and every doggy guest exactly how I expected my dogs to be treated. Take comfort in knowing that I will care of your dogs as if they were my own. They will receive as much love and attention as they want or need. I am home most of the day with the exception of a few dogs walks and driving my children to their activities. My husband works remotely and is typically home during the day. Your pup will never be left alone for extended periods of time. We have two daughters aged 11 and 8 who are dog lovers and big helpers! They share a love of animals with their Mama. There are a few important details to read over. I love all dogs but not all dogs are the perfect fit for our home and vice versa. Please read below. 1. Your dog MUST like children. As previously mentioned I have two daughters who are excited to snuggle and love your dog! If your pup isn’t a fan of kids then our home will not be a good fit. 2. Your dog MUST like dogs. We have a resident dog and often have a boarder or two. If your dog doesn’t do well with other dogs then our home will not be a good fit. 3. I require a meet and greet before any stay. I want you to feel at ease when leaving your dog in my care. 4. I only accept potty trained dogs and offer many potty breaks/walks throughout the day. If your dog is a marker then they will not be allowed to roam free in our home and I will need to use a belly band. I take pride in our home and want it to stay clean and comfortable for my family and our doggy guests. Accidents happen but consistent marking is not ok. If use of a belly band/doggie diaper is necessary I will of course let you know. 5. Crate trained dogs only. By this I mean no barking or excessive whining . My husband works from home and is on calls during the day and we have children that need to sleep! If your dog is not crate trained and barks/whines someone will be called to pick you dog up! I have had people lie before which is why I am a stickler! Thanks for understanding! 6. We DO NOT have a fenced in back yard. We take take the dogs on frequent walks and and they get many potty breaks throughout the day! My husband loves hiking and enjoys taking the dogs on his adventures. The dogs play with one another and my girls love engaging the pups in play! You may end up with a picture of your dog dressed in a princess dress or attending a tea party. 7. Please make sure your dog is utd on all shots and flea/tick prevention. If you can send me copies of their vaccination records that is most helpful. 8. Please take note that my holiday rates are higher than my nightly rates. I fill up quickly for holidays as I only take 1-2 dogs over major holidays. 9. I’m flexible with pick up and drop off times and will ask the day before or day of for an estimated time of arrival. I have found it’s easier on the dogs if drop off is earlier in the day. That way they can spend time acclimating to our family. Promptness is appreciated and I cannot wait around for you. 10. Excessive barkers need not apply! Occasionally barking at delivery people is expected but constant barking isn’t acceptable. If you have any questions please feel free to ask! I want your dog to be comfortable in our home. We truly enjoy spending time with all different dogs and they will love being with us! I’m am fortunate to be a SAHM and have all the time in the world to spend with your dog. We typically feed the dogs breakfast and give them their first potty break around 6:30/7:00 AM. We will take a morning/early afternoon walk and then have dinner around 5:30/6:00. The last potty break around 10:00/10:30 then off to bed! Potty breaks and additional walks are offered throughout the day as needed. Your dog will be loved, snuggled, payed with, walked, and tired out at the end of everyday. I will send you videos and pictures and you can call/message whenever you want!
