About: I have 20 years of experience with looking after pets of all ages to the best of my ability. I treat your pet as if they’re my own and ensure they’re able to be as happy as could be, while their parents are away. I ensure to send updates, pictures, and videos for your peace of mind. I have experience with administering medication to pets, both pills and liquid. Written instructions are appreciated, but not required. I’m a mom to a toddler and am upfront with owners about when he may be with me during a booking. I take pet care seriously and always make sure your pet’s routine, comfort, and safety come first. I’m focusing on my Rover clientele so I am available full-time. Please contact me for a meet and greet and see where everything goes from there! I am not able to offer boarding at home, but am able to take care of your babies in the comfort of your home where they’re most comfortable. If you prefer to provide instructions for your pets, I will follow them. You will receive a lot of pictures and videos of your fur babies as well.

About: I was born into a family of pets and have been taking care of my dog and cat for years now. Walking, bathing, playing and loving. I am attending collage in the morning on Mondays, Thudays and Fridays but after 2pm I am usually free. I am usually always free on the weekends. While pet sitting I will walk, play and absolutely adore the furry baby that I have the honor of seeing. Any rules in place I will do absolute best to follow.

“Sharon was amazing! She came over before we needed help with Fitz to meet him, and he loved her at first sight. She was communicative, quick to respond, and timely. I highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been a devoted dog owner for the past 18 years and have cared for dogs through every stage of life, from energetic younger dogs to seniors who need extra patience, gentleness and attention. My two beloved dogs, Charlie and Sophie, were a huge part of my life, and caring for them gave me years of hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding routines, medications, changing needs, senior care and, most importantly, understanding each dog’s individual personality. I’ve also regularly cared for friends’ dogs over the years, including dogs of different breeds, sizes and temperaments. I’m very comfortable learning a dog’s routine and following it closely so they feel secure and relaxed while their family is away. I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I’m attentive, calm, affectionate and dependable. I treat every dog as an individual and want them to feel safe, comfortable and genuinely cared for — not simply “watched.” I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of individual attention rather than fitting them around a packed day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting, including daytime care and many evenings and weekends. I enjoy being active and walking, so dog walks fit very naturally into my routine. I’m also happy to accommodate a pet’s established feeding, walking, medication and bedtime schedule as closely as possible. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, normal routine, medical needs, feeding instructions, walking habits and any triggers or special concerns before caring for them. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully and never assume that what works for one dog will work for another. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the pet and the home and try to keep everything as familiar and predictable as possible. On walks, I pay close attention to surroundings, traffic, other dogs and leash security. I’m also very comfortable with senior dogs or pets who need a slower pace, extra reassurance or more frequent attention.

About: My family has always had at least one cat or dog, so I have grown up with these wonderful animals as well as learned how to care for them with walking, feeding, cleaning, playing, etc. I am familiar with the body language of dogs and cats and want to provide a fun and safe experience for them while taking into account their unique temperaments and personalities. I treat every dog and cat like the beloved family member that I know they are. I am a grad student at Salem State, so besides going to classes and completing my coursework, I am available. I would love to spend some of my time meeting and caring for your pet(s)! I am unavailable on Tues-Thurs mornings from 8:30-11am, Tues-Wed evenings from 4-7pm, and Thurs evenings from 6-9:30pm. I will treat your pets and your home with the utmost respect. I want to be an asset that will unobtrusively care for your animals in and outside your home. I know and honor how important every animal is in their family's life.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and since I was 6 I cared for my best friend who was a little maltipoo who ended up getting her eyes removed. She recently passed but the past couple of years I found any and every way to accommodate her needs, with her blindness and mobility issues, I would say that I’m very skilled in caring for pups with special needs. I’ve cared for a range of types of dogs and puppies, including big dog breed puppies and small. I love to take things at the pace of the dog, rather than at what speed I want, because I feel that having patience is the key to making them feel safe and loved while their favorite people aren’t around. I currently work part time with some closing shifts and some opening, but they’re always very good times to work around. Other than that I’m very open and will go at whatever hour to tend to your pet’s needs! While I don’t have the best situation currently to host pets, I am all about caring for your pet in the comfort of their own space. I will treat your home with the same respect I’ll give your animal :)

About: I provide personalized one-on-one pet sitting in a peaceful, stress‑free home where your pet is my only priority. I care for just one dog or family at a time, and with no pets or children of my own, your pup or cat receives truly individualized attention and affection. I work from home, which allows for a flexible schedule filled with constant companionship, attentive care, and plenty of time for walks—something I genuinely love and happily share with your pup! My spacious 1,700 sq. ft. home provides a safe, clean, and secure environment with plenty of room for supervised play, games of fetch, and calm, cozy spaces where your pet can relax and feel at home.

I’m available Monday Wednesday and some sundays 11 am to 3 pm I will create a safe, secure, comfortable and confident when walking your lovely dog. Using a proper fitted collar or harness and leash.building trust with your dog and using a calm. Respecting your dog comfort level by giving them space when needed.

About: I’ve always had pets in my family, so I grew up around animals and learned to love and care for them from a young age. Four years ago, I adopted my own pug, and he quickly became part of my everyday life. I love playing with him, feeding him, going on walks, relaxing together, and even taking naps. Having my own pet has taught me even more about patience, responsibility, and giving animals lots of love and attention. I would treat your pet with the same care and affection I give my own. I work from 3:00 PM to 11:30 PM, so my mornings are usually open and flexible for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and playtime. I also have some weekend availability depending on my work schedule, so feel free to reach out and we can find a time that works! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while I’m with them. I’ll follow their usual routine, keep their food and water fresh, give them plenty of attention, and of course make time for play and cuddles. I’m also very respectful of each pet’s space and personality, so I always try to make them feel relaxed and cared for.

About: Hi, I’m Lauren! I’m a lifelong animal lover who knows that pets aren’t “just pets”, they’re family. I grew up with both cats and dogs, have cared for other people’s pets over the years, and currently have an 11-year-old dachshund of my own. I’m comfortable caring for senior dogs and dogs with anxiety who may need a little extra patience, reassurance, and understanding. As a pet parent myself, I completely understand the stress that comes with leaving your pet behind while you’re away. You’re not only looking for someone who will show up, you’re trusting someone to care for a member of your family. I want you to be able to enjoy your trip knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, loved, and being cared for by someone you can rely on. One of the biggest benefits of caring for your pet in your home is that they get to stay where they feel safest. Their favorite bed is still there, their familiar smells are still there, and their normal routine doesn’t have to disappear just because you’re away. And when it comes to that routine, there’s no such thing as too much information! I genuinely want every detail you’re willing to give me, feeding times, walk schedules, medications, favorite toys, sleeping habits, commands, quirks, hiding spots, anxieties, comfort items, where they like to be scratched, and even the little things that might seem silly to anyone else. My goal is simple: the only part of your pet’s routine that should change is that you’re away. Everything else stays as familiar and consistent as possible. Whether your pet is young and energetic, a senior who prefers a slower pace, or an anxious pup who needs extra reassurance, I’ll meet them where they are. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and give them the patience, affection, attention, and consistency they’re used to. I’ll also keep you updated so you don’t have to spend your trip wondering how things are going. I know how reassuring it is to see that your pet is happy and doing well while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your pet, learn their routine, and help make being apart a little easier for both of you. 🐾❤️ I work full-time as a nanny Monday through Friday from 8 AM–4 PM, with open availability on weekends. Outside of my work hours, my schedule allows me to be flexible and intentional with my time, so when I accept a booking, your pet can be a top priority. I’m happy to plan my mornings, evenings, and weekends around your pet’s established routine as closely as possible. Whether that means morning and evening walks, meals at specific times, extra playtime, cuddles, or simply being there to keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they’re accustomed to. I’m also mindful of how long your pet is comfortable being alone and want to know what their normal day looks like before accepting a booking. My goal is never to overbook myself, it’s to make sure I have the time and flexibility to give your pet the dependable, attentive care they deserve. 🐾 For everyone’s safety and comfort, I provide care exclusively in your home, as my own dog is reactive to other dogs. I’ve also found that many pets are happiest staying in the environment they already know and feel safe in, surrounded by their own bed, toys, smells, and familiar routine. Keeping them at home can make your time away feel much less disruptive and help create an easier, less stressful transition. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I’ll follow your instructions closely, respect any boundaries or behavioral needs you share with me, and make sure doors, gates, leashes, medications, feeding routines, and anything else important to their care are handled exactly as requested. Please tell me every quirk, trigger, habit, or precaution, there’s no such thing as too much information! I have a manual for my own dog for sitters! And I know you’re trusting me with more than your pet, you’re trusting me with your home. I take that responsibility just as seriously. I’ll treat your space with care and respect, keep things tidy throughout my stay, and make every effort to leave your home even better than I found it. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, comfortable pet and a clean, cared for home, so the only thing you need to worry about after your trip is getting all the “I missed you” cuddles. 🐾❤️

“Mariia seemed to do a great job managing our very strong and energetic pup. She took him for an hour long walk and we appreciated that she gave him some good exercise while my husband was out of town. Banjo came home tired out!”
