“Caitlin was terrific. She took good care of Sandy, gave us plenty of updates and photos. It was clear he felt at home and made to feel like part of the family.”

“Thank you, Stephen. Maisy loved her time with you. The walks and pets and overall love were much appreciated. Maisy is usually anxious to leave other sitters when we pick her up. However when we came to pick her up from your house, she kept running back and forth between the two of us. That is a sure sign that she had a wonderful stay.”

“Our Daisy stayed with Karen for 6 nights! We were nervous to leave her but Karen put us at our ease and kept us up to date with pictures and Daisy seemed to be having a ball with other boarding dogs. It was great to know she had a secure outside spot to be in and we would board with Karen again.”

“Julie did an excellent job with Brady. I felt very comfortable with Julie's care of Brady. Julie's house and fenced in yard was very nice and very well kept. Julie was very nice and took the job of taking care of Brady very seriously and communicated with me though the app on how Brady was doing.”

“Caitlin was absolutely amazing! Pinot stayed with her for a week and she loved it. Caitlin was super flexible letting us pick her up whenever we wanted, but also happy to keep her as much as we needed. We are already talking about the next time we come back and how excited we are to have Caitlin to watch her. She was super helpful with all of Pinot’s medicines and took great care of her. We will definitely be sending our pup back to Caitlin and highly recommend her!! This was our first time using Rover and Caitlin eased all our concerns and made it a great experience.”

“Andrea and Bob did an excellent job of caring for my old dear dog. They treated her gently and with respect, and when I picked up my dog, I could tell by her tail wagging she was happy to see me yet happy to be there. I highly recommend Andrea and Bob, especially if your dog is old. Their experience in caring for senior dogs is clearly evident.”

“Can’t say enough good things about Karen! We just moved here and were so nervous to find a good sitter.. Right off the bat Karen was so gentle and kind with Goldie, sent tons of picture updates, was quick to respond, and I never once felt worried or anxious! Also her dog Juni is the sweetest dog on the planet :) even with their size difference Goldie and Juni became sweet friends!”

“Alyna was great! She took our dog with short notice and did a great job. He is a 9 month golden retriever and has a lot of energy, and she handled him very well. Would definitely recommend!”

“Casey always has a blast at Michele's house and returns home tired and happy. She is warm, caring and loves dogs... truly the perfect person to care for our dog when needed. Thanks Michele!”

“Sally was fantastic!! We are incredibly pleased by her service. She communicated well and sent lots of pictures. Sally was flexible to adjusting the pickup to be one hour earlier which was very kind. She is personable, friendly, communicative, and compassionate. Even though it was a rainy weekend she still made sure our puppy had outdoor time and even took her for a beach walk. Thank you for everything Sally!”

“We used Cindi for the first time for our energetic Lab. They definitely kept her exercised and happy and sent her home with a new blanket. She was very responsive and sent regular updates, which is what every dog owner loves.”

“Gianna was wonderful with our dog. I was able to meet her ahead of time and she kept us updated during the visit. Her home is lovely and clean, with a safe fenced backyard. I would definitely ask her to care for our dog again!”


About: I have extensive experience working with dogs of all sizes. Growing up, my family had large dogs (90+ pounds) for almost all of my life. I have watched and pet-sat for dogs of all sizes in the past few years for neighbors and friends. I’ve recently moved back to the Massachusetts area after a travel-heavy job for the past few years, so no fur babies of my own yet! I look forward to re-exploring some of the wonderful walking trails the Cape offers with your furry friends! I’m currently working as a server part-time, so have plenty of time to play with, walk, and feed your dogs/cats. I am available for boarding or pet-sitting in your home most weeks, and for walks nearly every evening, plus morning and afternoon shifts every Tuesday and Wednesday. I have a large backyard and walking trails within a 10-minute walk from my house, perfect for leashed adventures! I do not have any pets in the house full-time, but may have my parent’s well-trained and friendly rescue in the house on occasional weekends.
“Where do I start. this is the 1st time we have used a pet sitter for our dog Delilah. Madaket was our chosen one. Right from the start she was accomandating and helpful. We had to change our drop off plans my son had to drop her off.She stayed intouch with us through our trip,sending pictures and assuring us that Delilah was cared for and happy. Which took a huge weight off our shoulders. Unfortunatly I ended up getting very sick the day before we came home and was admitted to the hospital. We ask if we could extend Delilahs stay. Madaket did not hesitate to accommodate us. She was able to modify our booking for us immediatly. Delilah came back to us happy and exhausted, the way we like it. I cannot say enough Thanks to her in our emergency. She will be my go to sitter from now on.”

“I am grateful to Marcia for taking such good care of my dog. Marcia has extensive experience with dogs and knows a lot about them. My dog was reluctant to leave her when I was picking it up. I am very happy with everything and would contact Marcia first if I need someone to look after my dog in the future.”

“Katharine was absolutely wonderful as a Rover host. I had a super-last-minute work trip to Hyannis Port and needed to board Ronan for 2 days. This was my first time using Rover and Kate put me and my old pup at ease immediately with her calming presence. She sent photo and video updates of Ronan having long walks on the beach and time in her yard and house. When I picked him up he was so relaxed and comfortable with her, I think he would have happily stayed several more days! I would definitely book with her again.”

“Kellie could not be kinder. She was fantastic with taking our new puppy to us as well as our 6 year old. Kellie sent pictures and kept me informed about the dogs. Kellie's home is beautiful clean and the fenced backyard is a fantastic bonus for the little one to run around. Truly such ease of mind to have them there with her and her husband.”

“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.”

Will absolutely book with Caitlin again! Her communication is excellent and I very much enjoyed getting pics of my girl throughout her stay. My dog is a senior and hasn’t been happy in kennel boarding before, but Caitlin was able to meet her needs and keep her content and happy the whole time. Great experience!

Sally was fantastic!! We are incredibly pleased by her service. She communicated well and sent lots of pictures. Sally was flexible to adjusting the pickup to be one hour earlier which was very kind. She is personable, friendly, communicative, and compassionate. Even though it was a rainy weekend she still made sure our puppy had outdoor time and even took her for a beach walk. Thank you for everything Sally!
