“Mandee provided exceptional care for our 2 cats (& checked on our home/mail/trash). We appreciated the updates and pictures she provided. She played with our fur babies and made sure they were set with litter, food, and water each day. Would recommend and definitely book her again.”

About: 🐾 Lifelong dog lover with 20+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, dog sat for friends and family for decades, and truly enjoy giving dogs the love, attention, exercise, and care they deserve. My goal is simple: to make your dog feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I am a teacher who is currently on summer break so I have plenty of time to give your dog the love and attention they deserve! I am available to sit Monday-Friday but am also open to weekends depending on the dates! When caring for your pet in your home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I understand that pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I strive to provide consistent care, companionship, and attention while respecting your home and household rules. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any special care requirements. During walks and outdoor time, I remain attentive to surroundings and prioritize your pet’s safety at all times. I also make sure doors, gates, and other potential escape points are secure. I know how important trust is when inviting someone into your home. I treat every home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, confident, and cared for from start to finish.

About: I moved away from the New England area during the pandemic and came to the Midwest where I didn’t know anyone. Back home, I had friends and family begging me to go on vacation so they could dog sit my dog, but here, without knowing too many people, finding a dog sitter was a really difficult ordeal. Thankfully, Rover and other apps helped, especially when I was able to travel again. I'm looking to help out in the same way this app and others helped me. I live in a large home with my wife Kelly (can't seem to figure out how to add her name but she'll also be helping with sitting), two dog friendly cats, and a very chill dog of our own. Pearl and Boy are our orange kitties and Candy is a 55lb brown lab mix. Candy and I used to be a certified therapy animal team when we had more time on our hands. All three animals love company (mostly human company but other animals are more than welcome, too) so your pet will definitely not be alone while you're away between us five. We do have a fenced-in yard, a dog specific area over the garage and all dogs are welcome to roam the entire house - especially if you also allow that in your home. But if your animal needs their own space, they have the loft, the yard, and various dog beds to decompress throughout the house. The old owners of our home used to be dog breeders and the home came with amenities specifically catered to hosting dogs. While we don’t and won’t breed ourselves, these features of the home make a great dog-friendly home for any pet while you’re away! We both work full time but Kelly is home three days a week and I’m home the other two. Typically my day revolves around when I should take the dogs out anyway. Usually one walk around 7am, another around noon, another around 5 when I get back and one before bed. How we care for your pet will be completely up to you and how you normally care for them. The goal is to keep the disruption of a routine to a minimum while treating your dog to a change of scenery and a new friend

“Julie helped me last minute with my cat. Great communication and nala was well taken care of. New sitter for me but I will book her again when needed.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. My family treats dogs like they are human children, and your dog would be treated like a prince or princess. I ask that you ensure your dogs are all up to date on vaccinations and neutered/spade. Dogs that are trained off leash will do better at my home since our yard is not fenced in. I am home Friday - Sunday. If I have to leave for any reason, then my husband or adult son or adult daughter are always home. I do not have small children in my home. I have 14 acres of relatively secluded farmland. We throw a ball for our dogs and also walk them along the White Pine Trial each night. If it’s rainy or cold, we go into our indoor arena and let the dogs play and run around. I only accept dogs that are good off-leash because we do not have a fenced in yard.

About: I can work with dogs that have anxiety and aggressive. And cats too and any other animals. As I love animals of any size big or small Any time works on week days. Weekends anytime. Unless except the job time and have a ride there and back home as I don't drive. I would come to your house for care and playtime and potty time. This wouldn't be at my apartment as rent and isn't allowed. So environment would be your house

“She was great! It rained & dogs got caught in the sprinklers, but she handled it well. Dogs were tired when we got home, so they must’ve had a great time!”

I am available to drop in during the day and early evenings to care for your furry friends including feeding, litter scooping and giving medications!

About: When I was younger I dog sat for my neighbor on several occasions. Me and my Husand Fostered dogs for a Pet Rescue until they found their forever home.

About: I have babysat for families with pets before so I know how to handle animals well! I have helped family members with taking care of their pets; like feeding and walking them! I am currently a college student on summer break while taking a summer class, and I am looking for something to fill the gaps in my schedule! I do not have any pets of my own, but I won't hesitate to take care of someone else's pet! New animals don't scare me!

About: I spent 13 years caring for my own dog, Seven, and she was truly part of my family. That experience shaped how I care for every dog-patiently, attentively, and with a lot of love. I genuinely enjoy being outside, going on walks, and making sure dogs are active, happy, and not stuck inside all day. Your dog won’t just be “watched”- they’ll be cared for, played with, and treated like one of our own. I currently work from home and am home the majority of the day, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I do step out occasionally for short transportation trips and my boys’ sports activities, but I plan my schedule to ensure pets are never left alone for long periods. Your dog will have a consistent, safe, and attentive environment with lots of interaction throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide regular potty breaks every few hours, daily walks, and plenty of outdoor time. When I’m outside working on projects, dogs are welcome to be with me under supervision. Because we are on a busy road and the yard is not fully fenced, all dogs will be closely monitored outdoors. I will follow your preferences regarding leashing at all times, and I also have a secure 20-foot cable line available for safe outdoor time when appropriate. Fresh water is always available, both indoors and outside. I also currently have a calm, 12-year-old foster dog who enjoys light play and does well with other dogs. We’re located near a lake, and with your permission, I’m happy to include supervised swimming and extra outdoor activities for dogs who enjoy it. I will always tailor care to your dog’s individual needs to ensure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Willa loves Hanna! She is great at asking questions to make sure your pet has everything he/she needs and is such a sweet person! I recommend Hanna to everyone!”

“Lauren was so great with our two kitties. They warmed up to her very quickly, which is unusual for them. We felt good knowing they were in her care! Wonderful sitter and would love to have come back again.”

About: I am the friends and family dog sitter! I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and I could still pet them for hours and not get bored. On average I stay at someone houses for a week while they’re on vacation as well as but not as often a weekend stay. As well as drop in visits to feed, walk or let pets out to do their business. I am great will all breads and sizes of dogs/cats, as well as ages such as senior animals. I personally took are of our 90lb 11 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback after her back legs gave out. So while using a harness I would help her do everything, such as standing up to eat, move around and go outside. I can also do things like trimming nails and bathing them (especially if you unable to bath them yourself). I truly care and feel for every animal as if they were my own. I’m currently not working full time at the moment and have been doing small jobs here and there such as dog sitting for friends and family. I have a great portion of time for spend getting to know and engaging in your pets. I’m available anytime after 9am. I will care for your pets the way I would care for my own and in such continue their regular and daily routine. Including things such as walking them in the morning/night, playing with them and loving them or any other needed or wanted activities.
