“Jane was super responsive to our initial request and came by quickly for a meet and greet before our trip. During our trip, she took great care of our 4 cats making sure they had everything they needed. We will definitely book with Jane again,”
“Katie did a great job with my very skittish kitties. Katie was patient and kind she took the time to let them come to her on their terms. I will be using her again in the future. Thanks again….”
“Derek did a very good job with his care of Bonkers. He gave detailed information of her eating at every meal and made sure she ate a little bit each time. My only criticism was that he was supposed to give a portion of 2 types of food for each meal, but only gave the the food she doesn’t like as much. Even so, it appears she did as well as could be expected during my absence.”
“Jessica is a very competent and caring sitter. Toby was having some health and mobility issues and she treated him wonderfully and kept me informed on his condition. I recommend Jessica and will call her again.”
About: I have been a dog owner (small. medium, large, house and sporting breeds) for 55 years and cat owner for 10 years. It is my passion to now take care of others pet needs. I am now retired and have plenty of time to help other manage the love of their pets when they are not available to do so. I cannot take care of pets in my home at this time. I rent and have 3 pets, significant other, a daughter and a grandson in the house.
About: I have worked with dog trainers so I know some training skills needed to help some pups. I also can administer meds if needed. I have had farm animals so I have that experience as well. I am looking to fill some time with some animals because of my love for them. I take care of everything from farm animals to cats. I can watch small dogs at my home. I have gates and a safe environment. I am more than willing to watch pets in the clients home to make them feel safe.
“Sabrina was great. Came in on schedule every day. Fed, watered and medicated the kitties. Sent me updates at each visit. My kitties were very well cared for while I was away.”
About: As a veterinary assistant, I bring a strong foundation in animal health and safety to every pet I care for. I’m trained to recognize discomfort, administer medications if needed, and respond calmly and effectively in case of emergencies. Beyond the clinical side, I have a genuine love of spending time with animals and understand the importance of keeping them not only safe but also happy and emotionally supported while their families are away. What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to combine professional veterinary knowledge with a deep sense of compassion. I have experience working with puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior pets who may require special accommodations or extra care. I strive to treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them the love, attention, and comfort they deserve. Whether it’s a playful or quiet companion, I adjust my care to suit each pet’s individual personality and needs. As a college student, I am using my free time to maximize community outreach and volunteer experience. My schedule is very flexible and open to accommodations! I typically meet pets where they are, if they prefer to play or just lay down and sleep, I can adjust to them! If needed, I can also be firm in setting boundaries that align with their specific training.
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, I offer more than just basic sitting — I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each animal’s unique needs. I specialize in puppy training, including basic commands and housebreaking, as well as gentle, compassionate support for senior pets who may need medication management, mobility assistance, or extra patience. My background includes working with shy, anxious animals, helping them feel safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is my commitment to treating every pet like family, ensuring they receive the same love, structure, and attention they would at home. I work full-time during the week, but I’m passionate about pet care and am available to help on weekends. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long walk, or extended sitting, I’m happy to make weekends all about giving your pets the attention and care they deserve. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In your home, I respect your routines and house rules to help your pet feel secure and comfortable. I make sure pets are supervised, have access to fresh water, stay on their regular feeding and exercise schedules, and receive plenty of affection and playtime. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space with lots of cozy resting areas and secure outdoor time (always supervised). I’m attentive to each pet’s needs, whether it’s administering medication, accommodating special diets, or simply offering extra patience and love.
About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was born. My parents always had cats and dogs and as the years went on, we had all sorts of animals from bunnies, horses, chickens. I rescued a cat when I lived in my apartment because I was completely lost not having an animal in my home. I actually put down a deposit on my golden retriever before moving out of my apartment that didn't allow them because I couldn't live without a dog anymore, so I knew that I would need to buy a home by then. Sure enough, we did- we bought our home so that we could have a dog. I work full-time as a nurse in Charlton and also reside in Charlton. I am available in the evenings during the week and am available all weekend days including Fridays. I cannot wait to meet your fur babies!! I work full time as a nurse but I am available evenings as well as all day friday-sunday each week. I work 5 minutes from my home so I am able to check on pets on my lunch break as well. I have a big yard and part of my yard is fenced in. I have poop bags, leashes, extra collars, purina pro dog food, plenty of cat and dog treats, cat food, and a litter box.
About: I am here to walk your dogs and care for all their needs, feed your cats, change litter boxes etc. I am able to stay at your house or just to come and take them for walks or potty breaks. I have a 3 year old cat of my own who I love more than anything. She brings such joy to my life. I have experience caring for my sister's dog in the past. He was so beloved to me and passed away recently at the ripe old age of 15. I would take him for walks, potty breaks and feed and care for him as needed. I've always been an animal lover and feel that they should be cared for just like humans are cared for.
“Sierra was wonderful! My cats were clearly very well cared for while I was gone - even the neighbors had to come over to tell me that whoever was watching my cats had done a great job :) sierra watered my plants, too, and I was very thankful to come home to both cats and plants thriving! Very communicative too. Would absolutely book again! Thank you Sierra!”
“James and Mallory took amazing care of our cats! It was so reassuring to know that they were loved and cared for while we were away. We can’t wait to have James and Mallory take care of them again soon!”
About: I’ve had experience watching pets and dog walking for several years. I’m primarily looking to do drop ins or walking in the mornings, but am flexible and open to other offers, especially during the summertime! I am a teacher looking supplement some of my income and fill my time during my summer off. I enjoy being active so I’m very open to caring for energetic dogs and puppies! Your dogs safety will always be my number one priority. I am willing to learn about the individual needs of the pets I care for.
About: I've had animals in my life all 33 years, I love caring for dogs part time to assist others when they need a home for their dogs to relax in, or even in the comfort of their own home! I have cats, so I am VERY used to routine (otherwise I get a paw to the face!) All joking aside, I'd love to work with your animals on the weekends. I am very adaptable to your needs, and I am comfortable with animal care in any way/shape/form. I have several friends that I assist in caring for and can provide references if needed. Thank you.
About: I have had pets in my life since I was a baby. We have enjoyed a lab, standard poodle and currently a mini cocker spaniel poodle mix. I love getting outside and being active with pets. I am at home with my daughter most of the time and I enjoy doing side hustles like selling vintage clothing online and seeking out antiques. We get outside with our dog, Carl often and would love to get a chance to offer outside time and love to other pets on Rover too! I always approach pets slowly with care and love. They feel our energy big time and have so much to share with us when we give them the chance.

Michael F.
“Mike is what I call the animal whisperer. Mike gas a special connection with pets, to include our 2 cats and a dog with anxiety. We have 4 of us living in the house and each pet gravitate towards Mike every day. They love us as well, but you can see the bond Mike has with each pet. Mike has a tremendous amount of live for any animal. I have also witnessed Mike's interactions with pets being walked in front of our home, pets that don't know Mike and they to are immediately relaxed and interactive with Mike. I believe Mile would he an asset to Rover in any capacity with any type of pet.”

Bobbi-Jo S.
“I can’t recommend Bobbi-Jo enough! She has watched our dog, Pette, several times now, and each time has been an amazing experience. From the very beginning, it was clear how much she truly cares for animals. Pette absolutely loves her, and we feel completely at ease leaving him in her care whenever we go on vacation. Bobbi-Jo is reliable, attentive, and always goes the extra mile to make sure Pette feels safe, happy, and loved. We get regular updates and pictures, which makes us feel even more connected while we’re away. It’s such a comfort knowing he’s in great hands. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with Pette—Bobbi-Jo is our go-to every time!”

Suzanne O.
“Suzanne was the best auntie to my dog for 15 years of his life from the time he was a very energized pup to a senior who needed more care and patience. My dog lived with her for a few months while my house was under renovation and she treated him like her own taking him for long walks and daytime pee breaks. My dog was a very hard dog to walk as he was bad on a leash and pulled so hard to whatever it was he was after. She always stayed in control of him. Suzanne has the biggest heart for animals and always made my dog feel special with surprise toys and pupcakes. I have no doubt she would be the absolute best caretaker for anybody’s pet.”
