“Cassandra did an amazing job caring for our 4 year old English bulldog for 8 days. Our bulldog is quite stubborn with several medical conditions and she administered all medications and went above and beyond so we can travel without him for the first time in 4 years. Cassandra sent us daily updates and was very quick to respond to us and helped put our minds at ease while away.”
“Christopher was very accommodating and flexible. He went out of his way to pick up Cameo at a more ideal timing prior to my departure for my work trip. He sent daily updates and pictures of Cameo playing and answered any questions that I had. Cameo got lots of play time and came home happy and exhausted :)”
“Mariana was so great with our pup! She was so responsive and updated us multiple times a day while we were away! Our pup was so well taken care of and had a blast playing with the other doggies! Thank you again Mariana for treating our pup like your own!”
“Lucy was absolutely amazing. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience using a boarding service. As first-time users, we were honestly a bit nervous leaving our dog with someone new, and we had reached out to multiple places before finding her. From the very beginning, Lucy stood out for how responsive, kind, and reassuring she was, and I’m so glad we chose her. Throughout the entire stay, she kept us consistently updated with videos and pictures, which meant so much to us. It really gave us peace of mind seeing our dog happy, comfortable, and well cared for. You can tell Lucy truly cares about the animals she looks after. She has a whole area designated for the dogs, and that level of attention and communication made all the difference for us. We will definitely be using her services again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative dog sitter.”
“Stephanie is great! She sent us many photos of Peanut and is very gentle and patient with him. Her dogs are also really cute and make great companions.”
“Luna loved staying with Bruce. I appreciated Bruce's attention to detail in making sure he was able to provide the best care for Luna. We've already booked another stay with Bruce!”
“Davon was amazing. I outreached very impromptu and he was available for a meet and greet with Arya. ( which went well. We reviewed the basics of her care and he made sure to get a full understanding of what is needed to make Aryas stay as comfortable as possible) drop off was nice. He has spacious living accommodations. What stood out is his willingness to work with Arya being that she is a Bully. There are a many false conceptions about this breed. With his family background working with bully’s and pitbull, and his love for animals in general, I had no concerns that Arya was in good care. During her overnight visit, he provided checks up and sent pictures for reassurance. He also introduced Arya to family and friends ( which I love ) being that she is not around other dogs or people, helping her socialize. Picking Arya up was easy. All items returned and she was happy ! I previously boarded her , and when picking her up she was distant, had scratches and limped !!! All in all, 5 stars for Devon. I recommend and will use him again. 🐾💕”
“Mari did such an amazing job keeping our furbaby happy, cozy and active! She sent regular pictures of their outdoor activities and consistently kept me updated on how he was doing. She is awesome!”
About: I've always had a deep love for animals, I've cared for dogs of all breeds and ages, giving them attention and afection, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable and happy! I work from home part-time, so this easily allows me to look after and keep an eye on your pets, as well as attend to all their needs. In my home🐾 i have a very friendly Frenchie and he would love to having a friend to play, i provide a warm and safe environment where your dog can feel happy! I stick to their usual routine, feeding times, walks, playtime and rest. Pets have acces to cozzy sleeping spots, and supervised outdoor time. I always can send you photos and updates so you can feel connected while you're away.
About: From a young age, I've carried an empathetic, playful, and nurturing nature. As an experienced in-home kitten foster, life-long cat owner, and a certified dog lover, I view responsibilities as a pleasure because I greatly value the companionship of cats and dogs of all ages, shapes, sizes, conditions, and most importantly, personalities. I follow directions steadfastly but tend to go above and beyond to ensure the comfort of your pet(s)! I am free all days of the week, at most hours of the day at the convenience of pet owners in need of assistance. I am also free to board overnight! I serve wet food and treats (different types of treats according to the pet's preference) several times a day, clean the water bowl/dispenser out daily and allot outside time every few hours. For cats, I scoop the litter every night; for dogs, I go out on long walks multiple times a day, depending on the owner's instruction. For all animals, recreational time is vital, and so I do like to play with them a lot, whether it be outside, at a dog park, and/or with any trinkets.
“Catie and her husband were able to take care of my dog when travel plans changed last minute. I was very nervous with a new sitter but they took great care of Barkley. They sent videos and pictures thru out his stay and were very responsive when I reached out to check on how he was doing. I would recommend them and use again!”
“I can't tell you how thankful I am to have found Elizabeth to watch our dog. We have never left him with someone we didn't know and this is our first time using Rover. She went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and confident in leaving my dog with her. She was great at communication before and during my dog's stay always letting me know how he was doing and also sending pictures along with the updates. I highly recommend her and will be booking with her again soon! Thank you Elizabeth!”
“Liza was an excellent care taker for Lexington during his overnight stay. She provided daily updates and timely responses. Would definitely recommend and I plan to continue to use her moving forward.”
“Andrea was super nice and managed to accomodate our last-minute Christmas booking. She kept us updated with lots of photos and videos, and our dogs looked quite happy and relaxed. Her house has a fenced-in area that they loved to play in. Most impressive of all, though, was that Andrea let the dogs into her bedroom (they are used to sleeping next to us), on Christmas no less. Our dogs seemed in great shape when we picked them up after their 3 day stay. She seems to be a very caring and careful dog sitter. We would have no hesitation in our leaving our dogs with her again. Thanks!”
“Anthony and Monique were excellent in taking care of Mia! I specially appreciated that they took the time for a meet and greet to make sure Mia was comfortable. We really appreciate all their care!”
“We recently left our dog, Ivy, with Brittany, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she received. Ivy absolutely loved being there! Brittany and her family treated Ivy like one of their own, showering her with love and attention. It was clear that they genuinely care about the pets they look after.”
“Anne-Marie and her partner did a superb job taking care of Bella. They sent daily updates and photos, and provided Bella with thorough and attentive care. It was clear from the photos and when I picked up Bella that she enjoyed her stay :) highly recommend, looking forward to next stay.”
“Bianka was wonderful with my dog Howie. She was responsive and provided frequent updates while he was in her care! I’d absolutely recommend Bianka to anyone in need of a dog sitter. :)”

“Second time working with Alex. She took great care of our four cats and was accommodating to our last minute request. Our cats were healthy and calm when we got home. Thanks, Alex!”
“Sandra was very quick to answer messages and questions; she was very accommodating throughout the process, and the drop in visits went smoothly. Even though they met her only a couple of times, my kitties seemed to respond to her. Would book her again!”
“Melanie was wonderful with our cat! Our cat automatically went right up to her, which is always a great sign. She followed all of our instructions carefully, was very accommodating, and communicated well throughout the process. Her rates were also very reasonable, and she was kind, reliable, and easy to work with. We felt comfortable knowing our cat was in good hands and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Shes a great communicator but most importantly took care of my pets like theyre her own. I never doubted my pets were well cared for and thats the most important thing!”
“Hannah is an excellent pet sitter. She took good care of our cat while we were away. She administered his oral medication daily with no problems. Hannah provided us with a recap of each visit including photos. We will definitely be requesting Hannah for our future pet sitting needs.”

About: I have been pet sitting for over six years and have cared for animals for as long as I can remember. I have experience with a wide variety of animals, ranging from horses and lizards to dogs and cats. I currently have two dogs of my own, one is 4 years old and the other is 12. I understand the different needs pets may have at every stage of life. I am comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments and can administer oral medications when needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I recently graduated from Fairfield University with my nursing degree and have begun my career as an emergency department nurse. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. You can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and dependable when caring for your pets. I will always make sure your pet has a clean, safe, and comfortable environment while in my care.

Before I leave, I will make sure your home is tidy, your pet is safe, happy and comfortable. I will be sure to follow any instructions given to me prior to the visit.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs now for about 2 years as a way to help out family and friends while making an additional income. I have experience doing overnight stays, walks, and visits for both young and old dogs! I am a recent graduate looking for a job, so I currently have plenty of time to look after your pets! Let me know what time and day you would like my help and I will try my best to accommodate. I will work on weekends!

“Acadia ... was great! She sent pics and updates regularly. She was always courteous and professional and from the moment that I met her, I knew I could count on her to take care of Buddy in our home. She left everything clean and neat, followed directions, asked questions when she wasn't sure about something and more. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again and I'm sure I will.”

“Marianna is just the best. She provides such a nice environment for my dog to be cared for without the stress of having SO many dogs around. I always get sweet photos and videos while I'm away.”
About: I rescued my own dog from a shelter, and she required a lot of special training and patience. I worked with her on socialization, leash walking, and reducing pulling and barking around other dogs, and I have successfully helped her improve in all of these areas. Since she was a puppy when I adopted her, I also have experience with the patience, consistency, and care that younger dogs require. In addition, I care for a senior dog, so I am experienced in recognizing when a dog has reached their physical limit during walks and understanding how to adjust care based on their needs. Having experience with both younger and older dogs, as well as both large and small breeds, has taught me how to handle dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and training levels with confidence and care. I am currently in school but there are only three days a week I am completely booked with classes. My Mondays and Fridays and weekends are completely open and would love to spend my free time around more dogs! I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for pets while they are in my care. Since I live in an apartment, I make sure the space is pet-friendly, secure, and free of anything that could be harmful to animals. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, exercise, and any special instructions from the owner. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely to help pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize safety during walks, monitor pets closely around other animals, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, and affection. I also provide updates and communication so owners feel reassured while their pets are in my care.
“Mari is so sweet and so clearly a dog lover. Our pups were so happy and comfortable with her during a day of doggy daycare. And I loved that she stayed in touch and sent a ton of pics and videos during the stay. It gave me peace of mind to leave the pups with her while I was at work. Can’t wait for Kumi and Goku’s next booking with Mari!!”
About: I am a veterinary nurse as well as a certified dog trainer. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and will treat your pup as one of my own! I work from home. I do virtual dog training sessions and only work one day out of the house, so very easy for me to take care of your pup in between sessions. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of toys as well as going for daily walks in our very safe neighborhood. I also have two very friendly medium size pups who love to play.
“Liza was wonderful. We need a last minute booking for a holiday and she accommodated us very easily. Our Goldendoodle, Biscuit, was very well cared for. He doesn’t always do well away from us and can have some separation anxiety. He was at ease and enjoyed himself. We will definitely rebook with her.”
“Andrea was just wonderful. It was my first time leaving them with a sitter. I knew I could trust her with my babies right off the bat. She’s sweet and caring and communicated with me the whole time because I was anxious being away from them. It’s easy to see that she is a dog person to the core. Highly recommend!”
“Stephanie took great care of my beagle for three days while I had to travel out of state. He came home to me exhausted and happy after full days of playing and walks. Thanks Stephanie!”
“Noemi and her family took great care of my dog while I was away! She was very accommodating and flexible. She followed my dogs schedule and routine with no problems! She also sent me the cutest pup updates! So many good pictures and videos of my dog enjoying his time at her home! My dog was very happy and excited to go back everyday! So happy we found a great attentive loving family to send my pup to while I’m away! I highly recommend Noemi and her family!”
“What a great way to spend a day! My pup clearly had the best time with Cheyenne and her dogs (as evidenced by the photos), and it was a great peace of mind to know she was happy and well taken-care-of.”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was little for family, friends and clients of friends. Animals are my passion and they are just the best companions.

Even if it’s just a drop in I have the flexibility all week and weekend to drop in on your pets! I care for everyone’s animals as if they are my own. I will sleep with your pets if that’s what they are used too and I will give them all the loving that they deserve while you are away 🩷 even if they take over the bed and there is no room for me I will find a way to fit because this is their home and I will never get in the way of their routine and what they are used to.
“Bruce was so great with our energetic husky, Khali. He really helped us out with a last minute sitter request. He spent the day with her and sent us several updates with pictures. He has a lot of property for her to explore and when we picked her up we could tell she’d had a good time. If we were local, we would definitely reach out to him again! Thank you, Bruce!”
“Kristen was great with our 3 month old puppy. She was flexible, sent us plenty of pictures, and responded quickly. It was a serene getaway for him and he looked very comfortable in her home. She took him on walks and he walked really well with her. On the second day drop off Kameron was wagging his tail as we walked inside and went straight for a prized green toy he loved. The pictures she sent were beautiful and she was very easy to talk to. I highly recommend her would absolutely use her again.”
“She's a truly a nurturing dog person who took care of my dog as her own. I really loved the facilities and set up for my dog. A very open home with a fenced in backyard. After the second day my dog ran to Kylie on her own during drop off. She was a great host and i would repeat dropping my dog, Nancy off again. Thanks again for the professionalism and for my dog's care.”
About: Hi i’m Laci! I have a French Bull dog, a German Shepard and Chow mix and a Lab and Rottweiler mix and used to have a Boston terrier. I make all dogs in their best environment possible. I dog sit big dogs and small dogs and do it for others around my neighborhood as well! I am very experienced with dogs and do very well with training, walking them and treating them and playing with them to their own needs. I am a D1 field hockey player so I usually train and go to PT in the mornings and am mostly free around 10am-12am. I am also pretty flexible with time. I trained all of them and walked all of them at the same time. I keep my little dog separated from my two big dogs because the french bulldog does not play nice with my one big dog. I do this so their is no conflict with my dogs going forward.
“Zuleima accepted our request last minute and was very flexible and communicative, also through pictures! Virgola seemed very happy of her time there and loved playing with her kids—she didn’t want to leave. I’ll definitely consider booking again. Thanks!”

“We had a wonderful experience using Ingrid’s doggy day care services for the first time. We started with a meet and greet and Ingrid is helping Shadow ease into the new space and other dog intros in a digestible fashion. She is quick to respond, has great communication, very professional and experienced, with attentiveness towards each dog’s unique needs. It’s a relief to know my pup is in safe, caring hands getting the love, attention, play and exercise he needs. We just moved to the area and are looking forward to booking with Ingrid regularly during my work days. Thank you, Ingrid!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 16. Friends and family trust me to walk, feed and take care of their dogs. I am comfortable taking dogs for long walks around the neighborhood or to the dog park, and I have stayed in home as a pet sitter.

“Melanie made a great first impression for us! She extended thoughtful details, did a pre-meet / greet, and connected with my pup well! (he’s a hyper boy, and can be fearful/bark w new people). She arrives on time and puts us at ease knowing Blue will be well cared for. Grateful for weekly walks.”

“We don’t have a very easy dog to walk but Rebecca did a great job making him feel comfortable and get plenty of exercise and time outside! She gave us great feedback on ways to help in the future with a scared stressed dog and we will definitely have her walk our dog in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs within my family since I was 10 years old. I love to go for long walks and give them as much exercise as possible! My goal is to take away the stress of giving your pet enough time to get their energy out for the day. Though I’d love to have a dog of my own, it isn’t in the cards for me right now so I’d love to enjoy spending time with other people’s pets. At the moment, I am between full-time jobs until September so I am available all hours Monday-Friday! My weekends vary in availability but if you are looking for those days just ask in advance and I may be able to accommodate you. I love giving pets under my care all the attention they need, so I am happy to go on long walks around the neighborhood or bring them somewhere nearby if they have a favorite spot they love to walk. I am reliable, flexible with scheduling, and am eager to enjoy the company of the animals I meet.
About: I am a huge animal lover and have spent a lot of time rescuing homeless cats in my neighborhood. I have trapped 20 stray cats, vetted them, and found them homes.

As a Special Education Teacher I am available all weekdays after 5pm and I have complete open availability on weekends and school vacations (December, April).

About: I have had lots of different types of animal experiences since I was a child including always having a cat in the household and volunteering with animal shelters. My specialty is cats but I have a few years experience with sitting and walking dogs as well. I am always up for a new challenge and am very capable and adaptable. I have worked in many animal shelters, as well as managed a cat shelter, so I am very comfortable approaching all animals. I have a very flexible schedule because I run my own cat oriented business and make my own hours. My whole life is animals, so I love to fit them into my life as much as possible. I currently only offer services in my clients’ homes, and to ensure that their pets are always safe and secure, I am very on top of communication and checking in with my pet parents. I like to review all instructions together to make sure I don’t have any questions and know exactly what contacts are (vet, ER, friends) for emergencies. I always respect other people’s space and will leave things exactly as I left them, if not better. Letting someone into your home to take care of your fur family requires a lot of trust and I feel honored when someone allows me that privilege.
“Alex came over every weekday to walk and play with my Morkie, Kimchi, while I was in Scotland for a month. Alex sent me pictures of Kimchi and gave me a report on what they did every day -- it was great! I came home to a happy, relaxed dog, so I know he had a good time. I felt reassured that he was doing well, and I plan to have Alex continue to visit from time to time so they can keep up their friendship. This was the next best thing to having Kimchi with me! I highly recommend Alex.”

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since I was 12 years old. For over 10 years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and administer medication to their pets. I have a 12-pound Jack Russell mix named Luna, who is almost 4 years old and loves both people and other animals. I’ve had her for the past 3 and a half years, which has given me plenty of hands-on experience with puppies and young dogs. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and understand the patience and attention they may need. In addition, I have volunteered at animal shelters, where I cared for a wide variety of dogs and cats by feeding them, cleaning cages, walking them, and providing enrichment and playtime. I truly love working with animals and would be excited to meet your pet and build a trusting connection through exercise, play, and attentive care. I am currently in college for social work. I take my classes online and I have open availability to care for my clients and their animals. Trust and safety are two of my top priorities when it comes to taking care of your fur baby. I have an extensive amount of experience when it comes to caring for animals. I always treat them as if they were my own. I will frequently keep you updated when I walk your dog.

“Cassandra did an amazing job caring for our 4 year old English bulldog for 8 days. Our bulldog is quite stubborn with several medical conditions and she administered all medications and went above and beyond so we can travel without him for the first time in 4 years. Cassandra sent us daily updates and was very quick to respond to us and helped put our minds at ease while away.”
“Christopher was very accommodating and flexible. He went out of his way to pick up Cameo at a more ideal timing prior to my departure for my work trip. He sent daily updates and pictures of Cameo playing and answered any questions that I had. Cameo got lots of play time and came home happy and exhausted :)”
“Mariana was so great with our pup! She was so responsive and updated us multiple times a day while we were away! Our pup was so well taken care of and had a blast playing with the other doggies! Thank you again Mariana for treating our pup like your own!”
“Luna loved staying with Bruce. I appreciated Bruce's attention to detail in making sure he was able to provide the best care for Luna. We've already booked another stay with Bruce!”
“Davon was amazing. I outreached very impromptu and he was available for a meet and greet with Arya. ( which went well. We reviewed the basics of her care and he made sure to get a full understanding of what is needed to make Aryas stay as comfortable as possible) drop off was nice. He has spacious living accommodations. What stood out is his willingness to work with Arya being that she is a Bully. There are a many false conceptions about this breed. With his family background working with bully’s and pitbull, and his love for animals in general, I had no concerns that Arya was in good care. During her overnight visit, he provided checks up and sent pictures for reassurance. He also introduced Arya to family and friends ( which I love ) being that she is not around other dogs or people, helping her socialize. Picking Arya up was easy. All items returned and she was happy ! I previously boarded her , and when picking her up she was distant, had scratches and limped !!! All in all, 5 stars for Devon. I recommend and will use him again. 🐾💕”
“Mari did such an amazing job keeping our furbaby happy, cozy and active! She sent regular pictures of their outdoor activities and consistently kept me updated on how he was doing. She is awesome!”
About: I've always had a deep love for animals, I've cared for dogs of all breeds and ages, giving them attention and afection, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable and happy! I work from home part-time, so this easily allows me to look after and keep an eye on your pets, as well as attend to all their needs. In my home🐾 i have a very friendly Frenchie and he would love to having a friend to play, i provide a warm and safe environment where your dog can feel happy! I stick to their usual routine, feeding times, walks, playtime and rest. Pets have acces to cozzy sleeping spots, and supervised outdoor time. I always can send you photos and updates so you can feel connected while you're away.
“Catie and her husband were able to take care of my dog when travel plans changed last minute. I was very nervous with a new sitter but they took great care of Barkley. They sent videos and pictures thru out his stay and were very responsive when I reached out to check on how he was doing. I would recommend them and use again!”
“I can't tell you how thankful I am to have found Elizabeth to watch our dog. We have never left him with someone we didn't know and this is our first time using Rover. She went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and confident in leaving my dog with her. She was great at communication before and during my dog's stay always letting me know how he was doing and also sending pictures along with the updates. I highly recommend her and will be booking with her again soon! Thank you Elizabeth!”
“Liza was an excellent care taker for Lexington during his overnight stay. She provided daily updates and timely responses. Would definitely recommend and I plan to continue to use her moving forward.”
“Andrea was super nice and managed to accomodate our last-minute Christmas booking. She kept us updated with lots of photos and videos, and our dogs looked quite happy and relaxed. Her house has a fenced-in area that they loved to play in. Most impressive of all, though, was that Andrea let the dogs into her bedroom (they are used to sleeping next to us), on Christmas no less. Our dogs seemed in great shape when we picked them up after their 3 day stay. She seems to be a very caring and careful dog sitter. We would have no hesitation in our leaving our dogs with her again. Thanks!”
“Anthony and Monique were excellent in taking care of Mia! I specially appreciated that they took the time for a meet and greet to make sure Mia was comfortable. We really appreciate all their care!”
“We recently left our dog, Ivy, with Brittany, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she received. Ivy absolutely loved being there! Brittany and her family treated Ivy like one of their own, showering her with love and attention. It was clear that they genuinely care about the pets they look after.”
“Anne-Marie and her partner did a superb job taking care of Bella. They sent daily updates and photos, and provided Bella with thorough and attentive care. It was clear from the photos and when I picked up Bella that she enjoyed her stay :) highly recommend, looking forward to next stay.”
“Bianka was wonderful with my dog Howie. She was responsive and provided frequent updates while he was in her care! I’d absolutely recommend Bianka to anyone in need of a dog sitter. :)”
“Mikayla and Justin were incredible! They took such great care of my GSP Goose and sent very detailed and organized updates on how he was doing and made sure to get him an ample amount of exercise everyday. He looked so happy! Also they were extremely understanding and flexible when I had to pick him up a little late due to my return flight getting delayed. Will definitely be using them again!”
“Sai took such a good care of our little Moxie while we were gone for the weekend! Not only did she took her in with such a short notice from our end, she also made sure to play with her, feed her as we instructed, and overall provide Moxie a welcoming environment while we were gone. Sai updated us very frequently about how Moxie was doing and for any other questions she wanted to ask us. She even provided such cute pictures of our girl! I definitely recommend and trust Sai to take care of your kitties when needed. She is very kind, responsible, and very understanding :). Thank you, Sai!!”
“Kristen was awesome, highly recommend! Very accommodating considering that it was a major holiday with a chaotic schedule, excellent communication leading up to and during our dog’s stay with her, and a down-to-earth person that truly loves animals and welcomes them into her home. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
