House Sitting in Townsend

“Mikayla stayed with our active Jack Russell for 2 weeks while we were away. I never worried about our pup, knowing that she was being taken care of and played with. Mikayla shared updates and pictures, and answered promptly when I checked in with her. I recommend her without hesitation, we have never been so at ease while away.”

“Joy stayed over and watched our two dogs for a night. She was great and went over and beyond what we expected. She sent us updates with pictures of the dogs, which we really appreciated. Our house even looked cleaner than we had left it. We definitely would have her over again!”

Maridel D.

“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.”

“When Callie and her girls dog sit, we know our pups and house are cared for and loved. Callie puts our minds at ease every time we travel. We know our pups are fed, safe, and happy, and we know our house will be in pristine condition when we get home.”

“Ailyn was great! She took excellent care of our anxious dog and our two cats. She also sent pictures and updated us over the course of the stay. I would highly recommend her!”

About: I have loved animals my entire life, and have owned dogs since I was 10 (after begging my parents for years). I helped raise and train them both from puppies, and am more than willing to help your pup learn the basics! I’m very good with shy or sensitive animals, so send your misunderstood babies my way! I am a nursing student at Fitchburg State, so I am typically available after 3pm on weekdays, with some early morning availability. I am flexible and happy to work with you to find times that fit both of our schedules. I have a car with me at school, so getting to and from your home won’t be an issue. I am happy to walk and feed, as well as change litter boxes/puppy pads as needed. My top priority is making sure your pets feel loved, safe, and well cared for while you’re gone.

“Jordan was incredible and gave us complete comfort during our time away from our fur baby. She sent pictures often to let us see how happy and content he was. When we got home he was all brushed and looked and felt amazing. We will definitely request Jordan again to take care of him again when we are away.”

“Colin was great! Our dog came home from his walks happy and well exercised. Colin was very communicative and conscientious! We would highly recommend him!”

“We hired Sarah to watch our 70+ pound Pitbull BoBo. He is quite a handful to manage outside and we find it difficult to find anyone who can handle him. She surpassed all expectations and truly cared about our furry baby. She provided regular updates to us, which was very much appreciated, but she also shared pictures of him being well cared for. That would be enough to most sitters, but Sarah takes it a step further. She cleaned the house, took in our mail, and even cleaned the bedding she slept on. We know of no other dog sitter that does that, but Sarah’s level of commitment to the job she does makes her the best option on Rover in our opinion. No worries here, do yourself a favor and hire her.”

About: I love to work with animal, I’ve been in the veterinary profession for 10+ years. If your pet has special care instructions I will follow them perfectly. I have dogs, cats, and horses at home so I am very comfortable working with all sizes of animals. I also know how to care for birds, fish, guinea pigs, and hamsters and pigs. I know how much a pet can mean to someone so ill will care for yours as if they were my own I currently work 4 days a week. I am available Fridays to Sunday’s if you are looking for a weekend getaway or if you have a busy weekend and would like your dog to go for a walk I don’t offer in my home dog services but can offer cat or small animal boarding. You tell me home you’d like your pet cared for, weather it’s taking them for a walk or just letting them out in a fenced in area

“Nathan was wonderful - providing loving care for my two dogs. He was on time, offered support when my dog sprained her ankle, and attentive to their needs. Thank you Nathan!”

Diane U.

“Julisa was wonderful - she stayed in frequent contact, sent pictures and, when our rascal of a dog breached the fence and ran off, she immediately got on the phone with me and we tracked him down at a neighbor’s house. I know what a terrible feeling that is when watching someone else’s furry babies and Julisa handled it so well.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs through friends, family, and personal experience, and I’m comfortable with both small and large breeds. I’m confident handling different energy levels and making sure each dog gets the right balance of exercise, play, and downtime. I work full-time Monday through Friday, with shifts that range from 4 to 10 hours depending on the day. I plan my pet care schedule carefully around work to make sure pets are not left without proper attention. For house sitting, I stay overnight in your home and commute directly to and from work from there. I do not typically go back to my own place during the stay — your pet’s routine remains my priority. Mornings include feeding, potty breaks, and attention before I leave, and evenings are dedicated to walks, playtime, and quality time. For drop-in visits, I schedule them first thing in the morning before work and again immediately after work to maintain consistency. I’m very intentional about making sure pets feel secure, exercised, and cared for within a structured routine. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is maintaining your pet’s normal routine and environment so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any specific household rules. I make sure your pet gets the right balance of exercise, mental stimulation, and downtime based on their energy level and personality. I keep your home clean and respected — food areas are tidy, water bowls are refreshed, litter boxes are scooped daily, and any accidents are cleaned promptly. I’m mindful of locking doors, securing gates, and keeping everything exactly as you left it. You’ll receive consistent updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is simple: low stress for your pet and total peace of mind for you.

“We were very happy with Sarah all around; she was friendly, reliable, and took very good care of our pup while staying in our house. I recommend her to others and would definitely book her again. :)”

“Jeffrey is trustworthy and supportive. My fur babies love him. He will be back to babysit at the end of the month. We can’t wait to have him again. Thank you so much for your love and kindness to Bella and Coco.”

Sharon O.

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my pets received while I was away over Christmas! Nevaeh went above and beyond to make sure both my dog and cat were well taken care of. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I came home to happy, healthy pets and a clean home, which is always a huge relief. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter. Thank you so much!”

About: I have 11 years experience in the veterinary field. Learning about animal behaviors, preventative care and physical health is a passion of mine. I am a very well rounded animal enthusiast that loves to stay busy. Some of my extracurriculars include training my Australian shepherd, whether it’s dock diving, agility or overall obedience. I will hold each pet to standards that support good manners, so I some training may be associated with my services. I strive to exercise your fur babies intellectually as well as physically. I would be caring for your pet around my typical work schedule, which is M-F ~8-6pm, but I can always drop in mid day during lunch. Communicating your expectations so I may practice proper time management is important for a successful and stress free pet sitting job. I have a very well socialized 5yo male, 50lb, Australian shepherd, Oshie and he loves to play. Additionally I can provide walks, and play sessions. Hikes are also supported.

“Sam went above and beyond for us! She was a fantastic communicator being sure to ask questions and send much appreciated updates. She even noticed our pups ear infection and sent samples to her vet to get addressed before we got home. We could not recommend Sam’s services enough!!”

Emily S.

“Theresa was wonderful! She connected with my pets (two dogs and a cat) right away in our meet and greet, and she took great care of them while I was away. I came home to very happy pups and my house may have been cleaner than I left it?! Theresa was super transparent about her schedule and when she would be able to stay at the house vs do other things, and she was also very flexible when I thought my flight might be cancelled. Will definitely request Theresa’s help again!”

Sarah B.

“Meaghon was the best! She went above and beyond to care for all of our pets and our home while we were away for the holidays. She communicated often and sent us a lot of pictures. She made sure our pets had lots of love and attention while we were gone. We were so lucky to find her and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
