“Eric has been sitting my 3 y/o rescue Beagle, Walter, for a few months now, to help with his separation anxiety. Eric is great -- not only is he understanding and knowledgeable of Walter's special needs, such as his fear of men and new situations, among other things, he's made some very helpful suggestions that have helped with Walter's anxiety. He is trustworthy, kind and reliable, and I would highly recommend him to anyone; you can rest easy knowing your pets are under Eric's care.”
“Kerri was great! We needed someone to watch our dog while we went to my bridal shower and Kerri was communicative, helpful, and took great care of Athena. Would definitely book again!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 3 years and have experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. I provide reliable feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and basic care while owners are away. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, lots of playtime, or a calm companion, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m a college student with a flexible summer schedule and plenty of time to devote to your pets. I’m available most weekday mornings and almost all weekends for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting. I’m reliable, responsive, and committed to making sure your pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medication, exercise, and routines. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I take the time to build trust with them. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
“This was our first time leaving Ellie, our family dog, overnight since we adopted her about 10 months ago. Tristan was truly incredible with her--totally understood her from the start, adored her, and gave her all the love and walks she could want (and more). Ellie can be reactive towards other dogs while on leash but it truly is all bark. Tristan had no trouble navigating neighborhood walks, rewarding her good behavior, and gently refocusing her to him when needed. She zoomed so hard with him in the backyard it was like our 8 year old coonhound became a puppy again! Could not recommend a dog sitter more.”
“Hannah was available last minute for an overnight stay when our original plans changed. She was able to squeeze in a meet and greet beforehand and put a lot of effort into helping our anxious dog feel comfortable. She sent updates throughout the stay and left our home clean and just how we left it. We would definitely use Hannah’s walking and pet-sitting services again!”
“Megan did an awesome job taking care of our cat and dog for the weekend. She was a great communicator with us and home and pets looked perfect when we came home! Will love to use her again in the future.”
“Joy did a fabulous job taking care of our pets and our home. She communicated daily and sent photos. Our cats and dog were very happy and looked great when we returned home. Joy also took immaculate care of our home, which we truly appreciated. We will definitely ask Joy to come again in the future.”
“Cam stayed in my house and cared for my lab-mix Onyx for 4 days. Onyx was comfortable and got her walks in, which enabled me to focus on my work trip. I’ll definitely be using Cam again.”
“Rachel is wonderful with our young lab, and keeps him busy with play time and walks. He can be a lot sometimes but she handles him with ease. She also offers some good advice. Rachel really bailed us out today when our doggy daycare had to cancel due to a water main break!”
“Wendy was so wonderful with our Marshie, quickly learning his goofy/sassy behavior (and that he is a cuddler). She even dealt with a brief power outage at our home like a pro. Thank you, Wendy!”
“Susannah did an excellent job house sitting with my three elderly cats. They aren’t easy, given their age and “litter habits- or occasional lack thereof, but Susannah obviously was kind and gracious to them. She also took great care of my home. She’s at the top of my list next time I go away.”
About: Now booking- summer 2026! Hi, I’m Annie! I’m a college student athlete and Rover sitter for over two years. I am well versed with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and behaviors. I have served over 40 clients with overwhelmingly positive reviews! Recently I had a senior dog and a puppy myself, so I understand pets of all ages and demeanors. In the past, I volunteered at a rescue shelter and have learned how to handle many kinds of dogs. Additionally, I attended a puppy care course with my dog, and I mastered walking techniques, training methods, and behavior management. I utilize these walking techniques with all of my clients. Outside of pet sitting, I enjoy playing softball, reading, and baking. I’d love to get to know you and your pet! I am a college student out of state. I am doing pet sitting as a full time job this summer so I am widely available. Check my calendar or shoot me a message to find out if I’m available! ⭐️I have three dogs at home with all different breeds and behaviors, able to work with you and your dog’s needs. ⭐️ Well versed in dog walking techniques, and can work with you to come up with a plan to make your pet comfortable. ⭐️ Experience with reactive dogs from volunteering at a rescue
“Absolutely amazing ! It was a last minute booking as she accepted it even if there were only few hours in advance notice. She was incredible with my dog which unfortunately had an upset stomach that evening too. Extremely kind and caring. It was our first time leaving the puppy in someone’ else’s care and we couldn’t be happier. Absolutely we are going to hire Kaylee again!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Danyel. She cared for my two small dogs for a week and it was the first time I’ve had someone new watch them and didn’t worry! She cared for them like they were her own and went above and beyond. I have two little anxious rescues, one with a seizure disorder who needs meds 3x a day and a lot of love. Danyel was amazing.”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for Rachel’s care and dedication while watching our senior dog, Kaia, during our weekend trip. What truly stood out was her flexibility and commitment to ensuring Kaia was well taken care of, no matter the circumstances. Originally, we planned to return Sunday night, but a strong winter storm changed our plans. When we reached out to Rachel last-minute to ask if she could stay an extra night, she didn’t hesitate to help. With road conditions still dangerous Monday morning, we ended up extending our stay another night, knowing Kaia was in great hands. Despite the storm hitting Acton hard and making walks difficult, Rachel made sure Kaia could get outside safely and kept our home well cared for. Her reliability and willingness to adapt to unexpected challenges gave us peace of mind throughout the trip. We highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and dependable dog sitter!”
“Jackie was absolutely amazing, I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. We have two Siberian Huskies that can be a handful, but she handled them with such ease. Jackie was communicative and sent enough pictures and updates where we felt comfortable and informed, but gave us enough space where we weren’t bombarded about the dogs the whole time we were away. I honestly didn’t worry about my dogs for even a minute from the moment we left, which is a first for me. We came home to two tired pups and a super clean house! I’d highly recommend Jackie to anyone I know.”

Ashley did an exceptionally good job house sitting for our Aussie, Nova during our recent trip. This was Nova’s first time with a sitter and judging from the photos that Ashley sent us every day, Nova had a ball. We had asked Ashley to water quite a few plants, fill the bird feeders and birdbath, take in the mail, etc., and she followed our instructions to a tee. She contacted us with a few questions which were glad to see. Ashley was diligent about removing ticks from Nova and Nova’s coat looked silky and well-brushed when we returned. She left the house spotless and even washed her sheets and towels and made the bed without being asked to do so. Ashley is intelligent, personable, mature and responsible. We will definitely invite her to care for Nova again.
Austin is a true animal lover. He genuinely likes to spend time with them. He was very attentive to our elderly cat and dog, and extremely conscientious about following the specific instructions I left for him. He sent updates and communicated as needed during his stay. I have finally found someone with whom I feel at ease leaving them. We are booking Austin to watch our pets again in a couple of months.
Hannah is great with my dog, always making sure she’s exercised and comfortable! Even though my dog is reactive on walks and takes some time to warm up to people, Hannah has done a great job making sure she’s comfortable and able to thrive while I’m away. She went above and beyond before her first stay to make sure everyone was comfortable!
Sydney was fabulous. She was attentive when we met, and enthusiastic about treating our dog like a family member. She was wonderful keeping us in touch with how things were going back home, sending photos and short messages. She was very tuned in to the whole emotional aspect of what it's like to leave your beloved pet behind when you travel. We can not recommend her highly enough.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Zannah. It was obvious from our first meeting how caring and kind she would be with Rosie. Zannah sent frequent updates, took Rosie on walks and true adventures, and is so easy to talk to! Rosie can get a little anxious when she senses we are leaving but she was so calm around Zannah - we are so grateful to have found her!!
