“Elizabeth popped in for a walk with Ari & was great at accessing her needs and making sure she was comfortable! She provided a very detailed update, so I was able to know my pup was safe. Ari seemed very happy and healthy after!”

“Rich did a great job caring for my 3 Huskies in my home. He is reliable, prompt and always communicated before and/or after each visit. I would definitely recommend Rich to care for pets.”

“Alyne has been a huge help with our pup on a weekly basis this summer. She’s always arrived when she said she would, and provides a complete report card at the end of her visit. I can tell by the pictures that our pup loves her visits! For a few weeks our lab was on restricted activity which she handled very well (a hard task with an energetic lab). Great communication as well. Highly recommend!”

“Rachael always takes such good care of Daisy. She is communicative, patient, loving and I just know my Daisy is in the best hands! I trust Rachael 100%. And I'm a very anxious dog owner haha so I don't say that lightly. Don't hesitate to book with Rachael 💗”

About: Dogs are pretty straightforward which I love. If they like or don’t like something they’ll let you know. More importantly is understanding their owners. Patience is key. You can get a dog to love you but to respect you is a different story. My full time job is 12:00-7:30pm. Days I dont work I’m 100% available to watch your pups all day if need be. I can take care of bathroom breaks at 11am and 7:30-8pm Pups that I care for get 110% of my attention. At the moment I’m available to take care of clients dogs within their homes. If it means overnights I’m more than happy to.
About: I’m a lifelong pet and dog lover with a 7 year-old female spayed lab, Ellie, of my own. I’ve cared for family, friends, and neighbor’s dogs for more than 25 years. My Ellie is very calm, friendly, highly socialised, and great with other dogs and children of all ages. I work from home and operate a licensed family daycare with success for more than 25 years. I have weekends off where I have plenty of time to take walks with my own dog and others. I am available for over night dog stays at that time also. My work area is separate, but I have a large fenced in yard with grass. My own dog plays with the children outside, but mostly stays upstairs when we are in. My Ellie often prefers the couch over her dog bed, and I’m fine with that. 😊 I have a completely fenced in backyard where the dogs get plenty of fresh air and exercise, but are never outside alone. My dog Ellie loves playing with other dogs and has a portable ‘doggy pool’ when it’s hot and plenty of shade. If your dog enjoys the comfort of their crate or special bed, feel free to bring them along.Home also has central air to keep your fury ones cool.All drop off and pick ups has to be by 7PM
About: Hi! 👋🏼 My name is Rachel. I love all animals, but have a special place in my heart for dogs. I have sit both cats and dogs for family members and coworkers. I love spending time with animals and have had both cats and a dog as a part of a wonderful family in the past. Where I am located there are plenty of walking trails to keep your fur-baby exercised and happy! I'd love to spend time and grow a relationship with your special species through sunset walks around cranberry bogs, nature hikes through wooded walks, early evening excursions at the dog parks, and playful doggy dates at the park; & all while keeping them properly hydrated, pottied, and safe!

About: I have grown up with animals and take care of them my whole life. I absolutely love cats and dogs and am currently in university studying to go to veterinary school.

I am able to take pets on long walks or runs or just be with them while parents are away! I am currently working 5 days a week but am done by 4:00 everyday giving me plenty of time to work with your pets! I can walk/run with them and stay overnight any day of the week! I am very flexible so whatever you need I can most likely do! I have lots of experience with pets so I will always be sure to take them out and walk them or get them engaged in an activity. I know how to administer many medications both oral and injections so there is no need to worry about your pets health while I am taking care of them!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8 which is when I got my first puppy! Family and friends have always relied on me to walk, feed and play with their furry friends as they were away for work or vacation. During my senior year in high school, my senior project was dedicated to fight animal cruelty. For 9 months, I volunteered for an animal shelter where I used to play and take care of the dogs, as well as initiated fundraisers to help local shelters. I’m currently working full time from Monday-Friday, however I can accommodate my schedule to provide the best experience for you and your furry friend! I am available from Monday-Friday starting from 5pm for drop off visits or walks/play dates. I am also available on the weekends at any time. Care for your little friend will be provided according to client’s request/directions. Only on leash walks will be provided for the safety of your pet 🙂 If allowed, we can go for dog park visits and trail walks. Prior to our walks/drop in visits, I would love to set a time to meet you and your dog, so we can familiarize with each other and provide the most comfortable experience!
About: I’ve lived with, cared for and loved pets for my whole life. I’ve been helping friends, family members and neighbors with their dogs for many years. Having just lost my beloved dog of the last 11 years, I truly miss the company and would love to spend time with and help someone out with theirs. I'm a reliable, easy going person who genuinely loves spending time with pups of all shapes and sizes. Whether your dog is full of zoomies or prefers a slow sniff-and-stroll, I'm happy to match their vibe. I am new mom with a little one. I’m enjoying my days at home with him. I can have him tag along or come alone. I have a fenced in back yard for your pup to run around in. I’m happy to walk your pup in your neighborhood or bring them on adventure to one of many walking spots the Cape has to offer.
About: I trained 3 service dogs for NEADS weekend puppy raiser program. All 3 dogs passed their service dog tests, 2 of them assist children with special needs and the other dog is a courthouse therapy dog. I also had a Bernese Mountain Dog for 10 years! Last year I volunteered at The Cat Connection in Boston where I cared for the shelter cats there. I am flexible on times to walk, but mornings and afternoons work best for me! Just let me know what time works best for you. I am comfortable dealing with any animal and will follow any special directions needed. Just let me know anything in particular about your animal or home that you'd like me to know.
“We are grateful and appreciate the care that Sally gave to our cat Sophie while we were away. We returned home to a relaxed kitty. Sophie is an old cat. We've had her for two years, and have never left her for longer than twelve hours. We would recommend Sally to anyone who has to leave their pet overnight. Sally also took the time before we even booked with Rover to determine whether the best care for Sophie would be drop in visits or care in Sally's home. The decision was drop in care. Thank you Sally.”

South Yarmouth dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sheila is incredible!! I can't emphasize enough how grateful I am to have found her through Rover. She took excellent care of my dogs while I was away on business and sent me such a detailed report afterward which was greatly appreciated. She is kind, respectful, and excellent with animals. I am so happy that I can rely on her from now on when I have to travel for work or need someone to help me with my pets.
