About: I have been a pet sitter for my friends and family for as long as I can remember and I am ready to branch out professionally. I’m a work from home medical engineer and can provide high quality services with a flexible schedule. Since I work from home my schedule is very flexible, especially in the afternoons. I can also do in-home long term pet sitting as I can be anywhere for work. I have a lovely small home in a rural part of town. Perfect for small dogs and cats, with no other pets on the property.

“Kimberly was great with communicating about the walk with my dog. She gave detailed explanations and took a few pictures. She was also able to accommodate a next day walk which is always great! I definitely recommend her!”


About: I’ve been caring for animals of all kinds since I was 8 years old—everything from energetic dogs to independent (or extra-needy!) cats. Having grown up with pets my whole life, I truly see them as family. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, or just a comforting presence while you’re away, I’ll be there with patience, love, and reliability. Their happiness, comfort, and safety are always my top priority. While I currently work full time, I’m available most weekends for your quick getaways, as well as weekday evenings to care for your fur babies. Whether it’s a weekend stay or a drop-in visit after work, I’m here to help give you peace of mind while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping your pets comfortable and your home respected. I follow your instructions closely,whether it’s feeding schedules, walk routines, medication, or playtime—so your pet’s day feels as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure they feel loved, safe, and well cared for in their familiar environment. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Leah was a wonderful backup dog walker for me. She and my dog, Yen, got along great. It's so cute to see Yen greet and tell her goodbye. Leah was prompt, friendly and professional. I am happy with my choice.”


About: With a lifetime of experience caring for cats and dogs, I know that pets are more than just animals—they’re family. I’ve raised three dogs and currently have both a poodle and a cat. My skills include puppy training, crate training, basic command training, and managing pets with medical needs, including medication administration. I’m also experienced with reactive dogs, allergies, and maintaining breed-specific grooming standards. As a passionate pet lover, I volunteer with the Red Cross animal visitation program. You can trust me to treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own! I work part-time and live 10 minutes from my house. I always check in on my pets during lunch. My husband works nights so he is home while I’m at work and we switch. I have a fenced yard, and lots of dog friendly walking areas. I have two friendly pets who do very well with other animals. I crate my dog when I leave home to safety & use cameras to check in on them.

About: I’ve previously worked in two separate boarding kennels over the last 3 years, applying care to all sorts of breeds, sizes, and ages!

I can easily adapt to any environment. Within your home I will respect the way you have things set up and I will be sure to follow any requests you have!

About: I have had a dog my whole entire life! From a chocolate lab, then a golden retriever, to a multipoo. I was always in charge of walking the dog every day when I got home and feeding them. I house sit for family, my friends, and my parents friends! I could be there from one day or night to a week! When I was about 16 years old, my neighbors asked me to walk their dogs also! My schedule is open! I have a 1 year old daughter who i’m at home with every day!! So taking care of any animal will work any time of the day! I have trained many puppies with sitting, using the bathroom and much more! This is only if the clients have asked me to help out! With both small, big, old or young dogs, I always make sure they are well groomed, loved and always use the bathroom. You don't need them to use the bathroom in your home!

“Jalisa was very helpful with my dog. I was in town for work and she walked my dog each day and made sure she had something to drink at the end of the walk. She provided pictures and updates throughout their time together. She was willing to meet me on the day that I arrived in town so my dog would be familiar with her on the next day when she would have to get her without me being home. She was accommodating although it was a last minute booking. I would definitely use her again.”


About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, so I have a lot of experience taking care of them. We are huge dog lovers in my house, so no dog is too big or too small. I volunteered at the Humane Society for about two years in high school.

Lastly, I do have experience pet-sitting for multiple families and have two dogs of my own. I would love to be able to watch over your furry friends or take them on walks whenever needed, so that’s why I provide such a flexible schedule! I graduated from the University of Tennessee in May and now work from home running my marketing business, Lawson Marketing. I have plenty of time throughout the day to stop by for visits or to take dogs on walks, especially since I have a puppy of my own that needs to go out frequently. My services include drop-in visits as well as dog walking. I want to cater to each family's and their pet’s unique needs, so I strive to provide special care for each and every dog. I will prioritize their well-being by following any routines as well as adhering to any special needs. Another big factor that I will prioritize is communication. I want every family to know that their fur babies are in great hands!

I live in Cambridge.** I am a loving cat parent myself and have had the fortune of caring for a broad variety of animals for well over a decade. I work on a farm for a veterinarian and have extensive experience with high medical needs animals including diabetic care, SubQ, IV and IM injections, pill administration in all forms, wound care, diapering, special needs, newborn and senior care.

About: I do not have a lot of experience with dogs. I can take dogs on walks and I think dogs are cute, but I am mostly a cat sitter I am a recent college graduate looking for a job, so I have a lot of time on my hands to meet some cool cats I will only be visiting clients' homes. I cannot have other cats over for catsitting as I have roommates with other pets in the house.

“Meghan is a great dog/cat sitter. She loves to be around animals and makes sure they are well cared for. She is especially fond of cats, like a cat whisperer, knowing what they want and how to play with them. She is also very good with dogs and takes care of our special dog - Swiffer- whenever we need to leave for a day or a longer trip. I would highly recommend you rely on Meghan for your cat/dog sitting needs.”

Colleen L.
“Colleen is one of my favorite people for more reasons than I can possibly count, but hands down, one of the qualities I admire most about her is her love for animals (and children and life). She is a pet parent with no equal; she's fiercely protective, deeply compassionate and caring, hyper-vigilant, and most importantly, she treats her own pets, and will treat your pet, as family; there is no person who I trust more with my own pet. Choosing Colleen is no different than choosing yourself; she's an extension of you when you can't be there. In my opinion, it's an easy decision, nothing and no one else compares. Hire Colleen as your primary Rover caregiver! PS: You and your pet will assuredly make a new friend. She's the best!”


Breanna T.

“Chrishauna is incredibly reliable, caring, and a nurturing individual; she is one of my main choices as a pet-sitter. Whether it's feeding, walking, or just spending quality time with pets, Chrishauna always goes the extra mile to make sure they feel safe and loved. You can truly count on her to treat your pet like her own. I wouldn't hesitate to leave my furry family member in her care!”


Alexis A.
“Alexis is a very caring person. Whenever she comes over to my house, she always plays with my dog. She leaves the guest room door open at night, just for my dog. She will sit on the floor and brush him just for fun. She also used to work at a kennel and she would text me about how much she loves the dogs there. She deeply cared for them and grew connections with the reoccurring pets. She went above and beyond her job description to make sure the pets were not only taken care of, but had fun.”


Skylar H.
“Great person and great service! She made sure my dog was taken care of and made sure he had everything he needed! She also even cleaned up everything for us, without even asking which was great!”

Gemma T.
“Gemma has always had a special connection with animals, who seem comfortable and confident around her. She is loving and perceptive of individual pet needs while being very responsible, organized, and meticulous in everything she does. Gemma is also a student-athlete, so no pet is too large or too energetic. She has cared for several pets over the years, raised our 9-year-old dog from a puppy, helped take care of a neighbor's elderly/special needs dogs, and even goes out of her way to care for local wild animals (from frogs and birds to foxes and deer). Gemma is reliable and honest and often goes above and beyond what is required. You can rest easy knowing that your pet will be in great hands and is certain to have a lot of fun with their new friend.”

Jordan G.
“Jordan is a responsible and loving pet caregiver. Jordan has a cat, Casper, that they have had since Casper was 8 weeks old. He is very high maintenance being a Sphynx breed and Jordan takes care of all of his needs, including weekly baths and special feedings for previous kidney issues. Jordan also fostered kittens. Jordan was very attentive to the kittens and kept in touch with the animal shelter when necessary. When the kittens appeared ill, Jordan called the shelter immediately and brought them to the shelter for care. Jordan has cat sat (staying in the home) for a professor at their college over a spring break. He was very pleased with Jordan's care of his cat and his home. Jordan has also done drop in visits to feed and play with cats of friends who were away. All were happy with Jordan's care of their cats. Jordan also worked at the Appalachian Animal Rescue Center in NC last summer feeding and caring for the variety of animals that come into the rescue. Jordan cares deeply for animals whether they be tamed pets or wild. :-)”
