Personalized care for your dog or cat - North Windham

Highly-rated overnight sitters - North Windham
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Brittany and her family caring for our sweet boy, Warren. From the very first conversation, we felt completely at ease. Brittany is warm, communicative, and incredibly attentive — the kind of person who genuinely treats your dog like part of her own family. Throughout Warren’s stay, we received thoughtful updates, photos, and little notes that reassured us he was not only safe but truly happy. It was clear he was getting lots of love, playtime, and snuggles. Brittany’s home felt like a calm, welcoming environment, and her family embraced Warren as if he’d always belonged there. What really stood out was the level of personal care. Brittany paid attention to his quirks and the small details that helped him feel comfortable, like a comfy couch and soft blankets. When we picked him up, he was relaxed, well-cared for, and honestly looked like he had just come back from his own little vacation. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely loving to care for your dog, Brittany and her family are truly exceptional. We’re so grateful we found them — Warren can’t wait for his next stay! 🐾💕”

“Our puppy had a fantastic time! Kristin was super responsive and sent lots of photos and videos of our girl playing with the other dogs in the house. Will definitely be using Kristin again in the future.”

“Dani was so accommodating with a last minute request. She is very knowledgeable about dogs. She has a caring personality as was a perfect match for my dog. Will be using her service again.”

“Absolutely pleased with Rolf’s care. From pictures we could see he was a happy dog. And he got to play outside in a child’s pool and a hosing! His favorite activity. He really didn’t want to come home!”

“Jessica and her husband Alex were both amazing! From our first meet, and seeing them interacting with my dogs, I knew these were "our people" :). Great communication the entire time I was gone, pictures daily, and they took care of my babies the way that would! We are going to do play dates, and I will be using them anytime I travel from here out! Thank you for giving me comfort and piece of mind, I was able to relax knowing my dogs were in such good hands ❤️”

“Dash had a wonderful week long stay at Renata’s home. Plenty of exercise and outdoor time on their beautiful property on the lake. Would absolutely trust to take care of our dog again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Katie and her family were wonderful sitters, giving updates and pictures daily as well as quick responses when messaged. They gave our dog lots of attention and cuddles, even bringing her with to their family Christmas! They also helped fill her stocking with toys and goodies, which our dog is still happily playing with. I would recommend Katie to anyone!”

“Stephen was amazing with our dog, Dakota! He took her for a great ride/walk every day and she had some super comfy places to hang out in their house. He clearly tuned in to Dakota’s personality and helped her feel right at home. We would definitely use Stephen again!!”

“Kristen was amazing! Cooper was spoiled with hikes and play time all week. I can’t imagine leaving him with anyone else, she treated him like he was her own, and inspired us to be better dog parents! We are looking forward to using her again.”


“Ricky did a great job , got my boys back healthy and happy . He provided updates with pics and was really responsive. Trust that Ricky will take care of your pet . Will definitely have him look after my boys again.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for about 6 years and have encountered all types, from the couch potatoes to the ones who want to play nonstop! I am home full time so I am available any day and any time for drop off and pick up. Being home full time also means I will be available for your pet at anytime they need me throughout there stay at my home. I have a sturdy 100 ft dog runner that has held very large dogs. However,if your dog does better on a regular leash just let me know and I can leash for bathroom breaks instead. While at my home your pet is my only priority and I am happy to suit any needs they have.
“This was my first time with Laura & my first time boarding my dog at all & she was the perfect fit! All the updates, safety & enrichment I could’ve asked for, my dog even seemed disappointed to leave!”

“I feel more than comfortable leaving Eli with Serenity and family. He has stayed with them several times now and always gets so much attention and treated so special. They are also great about sending photo updates. Highly recommend!”

“Cailey took care of my senior cat for an extended time and took great care of her. Cailey kept me updated on how my cat was doing, including for a period of time where my cat wasn’t eating as much. My cat will do this on occasion so I wasn’t concerned, and appreciated Cailey noticing and checking in with me about that. I would absolutely work with Cailey again, thank you!”

“This was our very first time leaving our dog Scarlet with a sitter other than family and needless to say I was a bit anxious...but after our meet and great day I knew Patrick and Susan were the sitters for her! It was definitely like a home away from home feel. They had a great set-up in their home and yard for Scarlet to feel comfortable. They are very caring and went above and beyond with Scarlet. The day we were supposed to drop Scarlet off, she had developed a sore on her hind leg and Patrick and Susan were so wonderful and reassuring that they would take good care of it. We were taking a trip for a week out of the country and felt so comfortable knowing Scarlet was in great hands! All the photos, texts and updates on Scarlet were even more reassuring! We are so grateful to have found Patrick and Susan for Scarlet and definitely will be using them again! We totally recommend them!!”

“Suzanne is the best! I was actually able to relax on my vacation and not worry about my dog because I knew she was getting excellent care and love while I was away. She also sent daily pictures and updates. I highly recommend her!”

“Ana is professional and attentive. and comes across as an incredibly bright woman who absolutely loves animals. This was our first time using a pet sitter and we were So pleased. 10/10 would recommend Ana for check ins or house sitting!!”

About: I love getting to know every cat’s unique personality. Whether your feline friend is a playful ball of energy who loves chasing feather wands, a sweet senior who needs gentle care, or a shy hider who just wants a quiet, respectful buddy to check in on them, I adapt completely to their comfort level. I'm highly detail-oriented and experienced with medical needs like oral meds or injections, so you can relax knowing their exact routine is kept perfectly consistent and stress-free while you're away!

“Nina was fantastic in taking care of our kitties. She was flexible when we had last minute schedule changes and super nice and communicative throughout the whole process. We will definitely rebook with her again!”


“Madison was reliable, communicative, and took great care of my two cats while I was away. She sent plenty of photos and updates throughout the trip, which gave me peace of mind and showed that my cats were happy and well cared for. I came home to two content kitties, and I would gladly book with Madison again.”


“My cat Watson is a shy kitty and her first instinct to strangers is always hiding. Brittany was very patient with her and got Watson to warm up to her : ) Brittany is awesome and I very much appreciated her! Will definitely book her again next time when I'm out of town.”


“Orion and Alex were very kind and professional when I reached out about drop-in visits with Collins. I had never worked with a pet sitter before, and they were very gracious about all of my questions and the detailed instructions I left. Orion provided updates and pictures for me each time he and Alex visited my apartment, and they took the time to try and socialize with my sweet, yet somewhat, standoffish cat. I definitely plan to book time with Orion and Alex again!”


“Cailey took care of my senior cat for an extended time and took great care of her. Cailey kept me updated on how my cat was doing, including for a period of time where my cat wasn’t eating as much. My cat will do this on occasion so I wasn’t concerned, and appreciated Cailey noticing and checking in with me about that. I would absolutely work with Cailey again, thank you!”

“You went above and beyond yet again for us! So nice getting photos of you bonding with the cats and we appreciate you keeping eyes on the house and yard while we were away. So glad you are our cat sitter!”


“Thomas did a great job with my 2 cats. They are very shy creatures, and don’t come out of hiding for most of the sitters that I have tried, but they were very friendly for him and got lots of snuggles. It is good to know that I have a reliable cat sitting option who my cats really like.”


About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, lizards, and a chinchilla. My friends made a joke that my house was a zoo with all the animals we had. I love animals and I can’t imagine my life without a furry pet. I’m home for the summer before my job starts in September. Free during the weekends or weekdays for boarding, house sitting, or walking. I’m very flexible for hours. My dog is very good off leash in our backyard. We take her on hikes all the time to tire her out. My cats are older and have to take medication but they love snuggling up with my dog.
“Amanda did a wonderful job caring for our cat Serene while we were on vacation. She was extremely kind, caring and thoughtful, she provided excellent and constant communication about Serene’s well-being. She not only fed Serene and cleaned her litter box every visit like asked, but also played with her and bonded with her, and provided us with cute photos of her to look at while we were away and missing her. I would absolutely recommend Amanda for any pet owner who needs someone to do drop-ins with their pet while they are away, and would definitely book her again! Thank you Amanda 😊”


“Natalie was an awesome pet sitter for our two cats! She made such a great connection with them and made sure they were well fed and played with. She takes the best photos of your fur babies and is always in contact so you can feel confident your pets are in good hands! We will definitely be using her again when we go away!”

“Attentive and gave me lots of updates petting and playing with the cats, even my shyer one felt comfortable with her. Tiffany also checked in on my reptiles too, which was much appreciated. Thank you!”


About: I’ve been caring for cats ever since I was a little girl! I’ve had 10 years of experience caring for many different types of cats in many different settings. I have often stayed at owners houses to take exceptional full-time care of their cats, and I have had countless cats stay with me at my home! I have practiced basic training such as teaching cats to sit, stay, and shake. I truly adore cats and I will enjoy every minute of caring for your fur-baby!

About: I have three cats of my own, one of which was aggressive and only approved for a single-cat home that has been nurtured and loved into being a cuddle bug who is a proud older brother to two younger siblings. As a vet tech, I have dealt with very opinionated cats and do my best to accommodate to any cats who are challenging.

“Dani was amazing! Took my dog to her 3x and she was excited each time. Photos and updates were sent without asking. I would definitely book anytime to take care of my fur baby. I highly recommend.”

About: Throughout my life, I've been surrounded by dogs and cats. I understand their body language, I'm very affectionate with them, and that's why I feel they feel at home when they're with me. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule to always take care of your pets🥰 I easily adapt to your schedule just let me know in advance! I have a space for your dog and I’m always available to take him for walks as often as he wants! I appreciate your trust🥰

About: I am new to the Rover app but I’ve taken care of animals my entire life and have a wide range of availability! I just want to be able to help those who need their fur babies taken care of without the added stress of boarding them. I have experience with lots of different animals, sizes, diets and medicine administration. I only have one pet in my house and he’s a small 20lb dog named Koda. He LOVES other animals and even has some cat bffs! I am home most week nights and weekends so i have pretty open availability! I take my dog on long walks after work and we are always looking for more company! I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a very yard with a leash that is on a run with plenty of room to get the zoomies out! I have a spacious house and we welcome dogs on all furniture, so if you have a pet who prefers to cuddle up and sleep in bed, i’m your gal!
“10/10 experience as a dog owner. I didn’t even have to reach out first to get an update on Gingi and she was professional, timely, and nice :) Gingi seemed very comfortable and happy in her care. I would recommend and book again without hesitation !”


“Kayla was amazing with my dog! Each time I picked him up, he was happy, and clearly well cared for. She took amazing care of my pet even though he has a broken leg and has restrictions. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Her services are absolutely worth every penny.”

“Our Roo had a wonderful time. We picked him up and he was a very happy and tired boy. Suzanne has a great fenced back yard that is perfect for dogs. She’s very responsive and we so appreciated her taking Roo on fairly short notice. Thank you Suzanne.”

“Really needed someone last moment and Shelby was very quiet to respond. Very responsive to any messages I sent and sent pictures and updates throughout the day without me even needing to ask. Very pleasant experience, highly recommend. Shelby’s dog is very friendly so no need to worry about bringing your furry companion over for the day”


About: Been taking care of dogs for 6 years now. Have had experience training two of my own dogs and taking care of them/walking them on my own. I also work alongside with my father (also named Luis ) who has been doing dog boarding for about 2 years now. Me and my father are very used to the behavior of dogs and comfortable with dogs no matter the size or the breed of your dog. I have always had a strong love and a passion for animals, especially dogs I am currently a college student looking to make a little bit extra money by taking care of dogs. If I cannot look after the dog, my dad also takes care of dogs and is always available Me and my father don't live in a very busy neighborhood so you don't have to worry about your dog being unsafe. We have a relatively big house and also have a park very close to my house with a big open field and fence for the dogs to run around in were I can walk your dog and play with them to keep them busy without the risk of them getting hurt. I also have many toys for your dogs to play with if you would like for me to have them get a more fun experience instead of just walking them.
About: I’ve spent years caring for pets of all kinds, from energetic puppies to shy cats and everything in between. I’m comfortable with any schedule your pet needs and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I am currently a student so all of my days are flexible. The semester is almost over but next semester I only have class on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I’m available for boarding during the week and weekends and everything else is flexible and able to fit into my schedule. There’s plenty of places for them to walk and play. They can easily be crated as well. Anything can be accommodated and done as needed.
“Renata is so wonderful! She is quick with communication, super sweet, and takes such great pictures during the day. Gracie is so so happy after spending the day with her and Forest. She treats my pup like her own!”


About: Hi everyone! I am an animal fanatic (dogs>people) with an energetic and outgoing personality. I strive to provide the best possible care and have no problem with special requests or schedules! I'll run, walk, play, throw to your dogs content and my own. I've been caring for animals big and small since I was a wee kiddo, have vet experience inherited from my dad who owns his own practice, and overall a soft spot for all things furry. I have a cattle dog mix pupper who is a social butterfly and a bengal that acts more like a dog than a cat. He gets along GREAT with all animals he's been introduced to, just check out the photos! Put yourself at ease knowing that your pooch will be properly attended to at your own convenience! I am currently working part time as a nanny and am looking to expand my passion for animals into a full time career. I previously ran a small dog walking business in Boston and am hoping to do the same here in my home state of CT! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly pups to play with! If your dog is not friendly with others I do have a separate space for my pups if needed.
“Stephen was awesome, kept Gracei happy and safe during her visits while I had to work. I felt very comfortable leaving her there for my first Rover experience and first puppy ever. He kept me updated throughout the day and is very flexible with time. Thank you and can’t wait to book with Stephen again!”
About: Growing up on a farm, I’ve been working with animals for as long as I can remember! From hamsters to horses - I’ve cared for nearly any animal you can think of. I attended Norfolk Aggie, majoring in Animal Science. Since then, I’ve worked as a vet tech, grooming assistant, assistant trainer, and in multiple barns and kennels. Aside from caring for pets, I currently work from home on my fiancé and I’s business, and do freelance photography (always happy to get some cute pics!) Training is a massive aspect of pet care. It’s important to have a sitter that understands your goals, reinforces correct behaviors, and constantly works to improve. Aside from training, having expertise in many areas of pet care, along with having experience with many different species, breeds, and personality types allows me to confidently handle any situation. Not only do I offer top notch care - I’m a huge communicator! I send lots of updates and adorable photos. When booking with me, you will never have to worry or wonder what your pets are up to (Check in as often as you want! I encourage it!) I also offer bathing & nail trims! Please feel free to ask any questions, my priority is always the comfort of you and your furry friends. Looking forward to hearing from you! Aside from caring for other pets, most of my work is online. This allows me to be flexible of when or even where I work. Feel free to let me know exactly what you’re looking for, and we can come up with a plan! Every pet is unique, and needs different things! I tailor my visits to each individual animal. My goal is to create a happy and loving environment for your pets while you’re away, and earn your trust so you can leave your worries behind!

“Ricky was great and seemed to really care for Leela - we had never met and yet I felt comfortable leaving her with him while I attended a memorial service. Leela seemed happy when I picker her up.”
“This was my first time ever leaving Ange. I was a little nervous, but everything went great over all. Carolina text me through out the day and made me feel so comfortable with me leaving Ange. I will definitely use Carolina in the near future.”

About: I’ve had all kinds of pets growing up, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and some friendly neighborhood chickens. I love them all! I’ve been walking dogs since I was a freshman in high school and I don’t think i’ll ever get tired of it! I have a very flexible schedule since I only have a part time job, and I take quite a bit of work from this app :) I love taking walks, so I provide anywhere from two to four potty breaks or trips outside throughout the day. I also enjoy hiking and I like to bring pups with a bit more energy to tag along. I’m more than happy to stay in your home with your pets if discussed and my main concern is that your pets are happy, safe, and just like you left them.

“Nina was so great, we rebooked her for the whole week! She was able to handle my big and small boy on a great schedule and made all of us feel very comfortable so I highly recommend!”
About: I've had dogs since I was 10 and participated with their health care growing up and decided I wanted to be in the veterinary field from that point. I started pet sitting for a farm in 2017-2021. I went to school to be a veterinary assistant in 2020. I later got a job at a vet clinic in 2021 and started pet sitting for clients there on the side. I've had 4 years experience with observing animal behavior and know what to look for when a pet is feeling ill, restraint, nail trims, administering medications, injections, and treatments. I also worked for a summer at a dog boarding facility and have experience with observing play behaviors to prevent fights from breaking out in groups. I just recently quit my full-time veterinary assistant job in October 2025, due to workplace drama and still have some regular pet sitting clients from the vet clinic, but thought I'd give this a shot to widen my clientele. If you like my services, I encourage you to contact me outside of Rover! I can only take on other dog friendly dogs in my house because I have 2 myself. I'm willing to go to your house for visits if they're not dog friendly. I have an unfenced yard, so any dogs staying with me will go outside on a leash. Dogs must be crate trianed to stay at my house. My dogs stay out when I go on errands or out for the evening, but get locked up at night.
About: I am an animal lover through and through! I’ve been taking care of many different types of dogs and cats since as long as I can remember. I am comfortable around all dogs and cats, and I am more than willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal in particular. When I come to care for, play with, and walk your pet, I will dedicate my time to truly loving them. I have experience staying at owners houses to take exceptional full-time care of their pets, and I also have experience keeping pets in my home! I have practiced basic animal training such as teaching dogs and cats to sit, stay, and shake. I truly adore animals and I will enjoy every minute of caring for your fur-babies! I am currently an Elementary Education student at the University of Connecticut, but I have tons of free time to take care of pets, whether that be for drop-ins or for more personal care in my home! Currently I am available full-time and I can accept last minute bookings. While dropping in to care for your pets, I will of course be incredibly respectful of your space, going only in the rooms I am allowed and touching only the items needed to care for your animals :) To care for animals in my own apartment, I have made sure that potentially hazardous items (small items, food, plants, etc.) are all put away/placed at a height that dogs and cats cannot reach. While I do not have a fenced yard, there are several parks around my apartment where I can consistently take your dog out on long walks. In my home, animals are also allowed on beds and couches! Please let me know if your pet requires any specific accommodations or changes to the environment :)
About: I am an Animal Science student at UConn and have been working as a vet tech at Ipswich Animal Hospital for the past 3 years. I work with many different types of animals, mostly cats and dogs, and I can cater to their needs. I can administer medication, clip nails, certain grooming tasks such as brushing and bathing, and I can also do hair trims if needed (some of these services may require an additional person; if I determine it is needed for that specific pet that would require another person other me entering your home). I am very active and can provide long walks for pets and can also provide photos and videos of your pets. I am a college student so I am available during winter and summer break. I do not usually travel so I am available for holidays and vacation weeks. I have owned dogs all my life and have taken care of many of my friends' cats. I have 2 dogs at home and regularly take care of 4 cats. Each pet obviously has different needs, and I try my best to accommodate them. I often groomed the cats I look after and adjust so that they are comfortable.
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life. Even through college and grad school, I had roommates with pets. Now I’m living in a rental that doesn’t allow animals, so I’m hoping to find some local pets to care for and spend time with! I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all ages and activity levels since I was young, and I enjoy taking dogs for walks any time of year! I’m a middle school teacher, so I have a pretty consistent schedule from August-June. Most days I’m able to leave work by 3, so I have all afternoon and evening to care for pets. In the summer and on breaks, I have a lot more flexibility with my schedule. I do have a small fenced in yard in case I had a client’s pet in my home, though I’d more than likely care for the pets in the client’s home. I have experience feeding, bathing, crating, giving meds, walking, and snuggling dogs of all ages and activity levels, as well as feeding and giving meds to cats.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Growing up, my mother was (and still is) a doggy foster mom for our local shelter. We constantly had 4-6 dogs in our home, most of which ended up staying long term. I have years of experience caring for multiple dogs and senior care as well! I work completely from home which will allow me plenty of time to attend to your pups needs all throughout the day. I love to jog and hike, so your pup will be sure to get plenty of exercise and outdoor time with me! I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. Working from home allows plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. While I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised and dogs will always be kept safely leashed. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, crate preferences, and any special care instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure.”

I am a freelance worker which gives me ample opportunity to accommodate to your pet's and your schedule needs. I have a very flexible schedule.

I would love to help you out and take care of your dog(s) or cat(s) and make sure they are happy and healthy every time I am done walking them, pet sitting them, or just making a quick stop to play with them. I tend to take animals I pet sit on walks and play with them. I will treat your animals with love and respect and like they are my own. They will be spoiled and given the extra attention, walk, or care they may need. I have references if need be. I treat every single animal that enters my care as if they were my own pet. I understand that our pets are much like family, and our babies in a way. I work full time in the nanny industry. I am pretty flexible and can stop in for afternoon, or even night visits.

About: I have taken care of family/friends dogs for over 13 years. I have done drop in visits, over night stays and just dog walking. I have worked with all different breeds, sizes and ages! I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and dogs with different energy levels and temperaments.

I love taking pictures of our furry friends so ill always be sure to keep you updated when im with them! I'm currently working full time but I can always do drop in visits and dog walking after work hours during the week and on weekends my availability is pretty much wide open on Saturdays and Sundays (typically when I take my own pet for adventures so if you have a busy dog who loves walks/hiking im your girl) We have an open yard, our own pup is well trained on her boundaries however for any pets not my own they stay on a 20 foot long line and walked around the property. Inside they are free to roam the house, however if needed crates are available for use. If ever unattended dogs will always be in a crate for their safety.
About: I've been around dogs my whole life and truly love caring for them. I've worked with puppies before, taking them on walks and reinforcing the basic training their families were already working on to help build a strong foundation.

I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care while you're away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone keep them company, I'm committed to making them feel safe and loved. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring and reliable hands. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I have a very flexible schedule throughout the summer. I'm available for drop-in visits and walks during the day, as well as early mornings and late evenings to accommodate your pet's routine. While I'm not able to provide overnight stays because I have a cat of my own at home, I'm happy to work with you to find times that best fit your pet's needs. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or an evening visit, I'm committed to providing reliable, consistent care. When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by sticking to their normal routine. I follow owners instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and any special care your pet requires. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment so they stay happy while their family is away. Although I'm not currently offering pet care in my own home because I have a cat, Bear, I treat every client's home with the same respect and care that I would my own. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving you peace of mind that your pet is in good hands.

I am local to Willimantic, originally from MA. I will usually respond within an hour with my availability depending on the extent of the care requested. Rest assured your pets are in great hands and I’m excited to meet them! I have my own kitty at home and work with pets frequently. I want to be as respectful as possible of your home. If there is anything I should be aware of, areas you want me to avoid, please let me know. I am here to help support you! I am currently working remotely with a flexible schedule and so I will have plenty of time with your pets! I can’t wait to spend my time with them! In my home we have a relatively scheduled day for our pets with specific feeding and care times. If you have a particular schedule please let me know!
About: Hello! My name is Amanda. I live in Tolland, CT with my husband and son. I have a lifetime of experience with animals of all kinds. Growing up I always had dogs and/or cats, as well as several other types of pets. I worked in a pet grooming salon for 6 1/2 years, and a doggy daycare for 1 year. I have also done pet walking and sitting for family and friends. I have owned and/or taken care of many different types of pets, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chinchillas, rabbits, birds, hamsters, and mice. We currently have a dog, cat, guinea pig, and turtle! I take care of and love each pet as if they are my own. I am a kind, compassionate, patient person who can't wait to meet your pets! I'm currently unemployed and my husband is a stay at home dad so my schedule is pretty open and flexible to be able to care for some furry friends! I love, care for, and treat all animals as if they are my own. I would always make sure the pet is safe, loved, and well cared for. I live with my husband and son who are both animal lovers as well.
“Ermelinda is truly amazing. Our skittish dog warmed up to her after the very first walk. The care instructions for our dog, Bella, was a laundry list and Ermelinda followed them to the letter. Your dogs will be in great hands with her. I highly recommend her services!”


About: My veterinary technician with small and large animals sets me apart as I keep a close eye on your animal’s health and well-being. I am not easily spooked, but I want your pet to receive the best care I can give. I am not a trainer, but I am comfortable dealing with some pets with behavioral issues. I want to create the safest and most comfortable environment for your pet, your sanity and myself! I currently work four days a week and have a three day weekend. I am looking to pet sit for people who are going on a short trip or need routine weekend care. I can be flexible with week nights, but it will need to be established well in advance. I am looking to house sit in the owners residence. My cats would not be happy to have any new comers to our family. I am very punctual with breakfast and dinner time, and I am typically one to spend time wherever the pet would like to whether that be indoors or outdoors!

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Brittany and her family caring for our sweet boy, Warren. From the very first conversation, we felt completely at ease. Brittany is warm, communicative, and incredibly attentive — the kind of person who genuinely treats your dog like part of her own family. Throughout Warren’s stay, we received thoughtful updates, photos, and little notes that reassured us he was not only safe but truly happy. It was clear he was getting lots of love, playtime, and snuggles. Brittany’s home felt like a calm, welcoming environment, and her family embraced Warren as if he’d always belonged there. What really stood out was the level of personal care. Brittany paid attention to his quirks and the small details that helped him feel comfortable, like a comfy couch and soft blankets. When we picked him up, he was relaxed, well-cared for, and honestly looked like he had just come back from his own little vacation. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely loving to care for your dog, Brittany and her family are truly exceptional. We’re so grateful we found them — Warren can’t wait for his next stay! 🐾💕”

“Our puppy had a fantastic time! Kristin was super responsive and sent lots of photos and videos of our girl playing with the other dogs in the house. Will definitely be using Kristin again in the future.”

“Dani was so accommodating with a last minute request. She is very knowledgeable about dogs. She has a caring personality as was a perfect match for my dog. Will be using her service again.”

“Absolutely pleased with Rolf’s care. From pictures we could see he was a happy dog. And he got to play outside in a child’s pool and a hosing! His favorite activity. He really didn’t want to come home!”

“Jessica and her husband Alex were both amazing! From our first meet, and seeing them interacting with my dogs, I knew these were "our people" :). Great communication the entire time I was gone, pictures daily, and they took care of my babies the way that would! We are going to do play dates, and I will be using them anytime I travel from here out! Thank you for giving me comfort and piece of mind, I was able to relax knowing my dogs were in such good hands ❤️”

“Katie and her family were wonderful sitters, giving updates and pictures daily as well as quick responses when messaged. They gave our dog lots of attention and cuddles, even bringing her with to their family Christmas! They also helped fill her stocking with toys and goodies, which our dog is still happily playing with. I would recommend Katie to anyone!”

“Stephen was amazing with our dog, Dakota! He took her for a great ride/walk every day and she had some super comfy places to hang out in their house. He clearly tuned in to Dakota’s personality and helped her feel right at home. We would definitely use Stephen again!!”

“Kristen was amazing! Cooper was spoiled with hikes and play time all week. I can’t imagine leaving him with anyone else, she treated him like he was her own, and inspired us to be better dog parents! We are looking forward to using her again.”


“Ricky did a great job , got my boys back healthy and happy . He provided updates with pics and was really responsive. Trust that Ricky will take care of your pet . Will definitely have him look after my boys again.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for about 6 years and have encountered all types, from the couch potatoes to the ones who want to play nonstop! I am home full time so I am available any day and any time for drop off and pick up. Being home full time also means I will be available for your pet at anytime they need me throughout there stay at my home. I have a sturdy 100 ft dog runner that has held very large dogs. However,if your dog does better on a regular leash just let me know and I can leash for bathroom breaks instead. While at my home your pet is my only priority and I am happy to suit any needs they have.
“This was my first time with Laura & my first time boarding my dog at all & she was the perfect fit! All the updates, safety & enrichment I could’ve asked for, my dog even seemed disappointed to leave!”

“I feel more than comfortable leaving Eli with Serenity and family. He has stayed with them several times now and always gets so much attention and treated so special. They are also great about sending photo updates. Highly recommend!”

“This was our very first time leaving our dog Scarlet with a sitter other than family and needless to say I was a bit anxious...but after our meet and great day I knew Patrick and Susan were the sitters for her! It was definitely like a home away from home feel. They had a great set-up in their home and yard for Scarlet to feel comfortable. They are very caring and went above and beyond with Scarlet. The day we were supposed to drop Scarlet off, she had developed a sore on her hind leg and Patrick and Susan were so wonderful and reassuring that they would take good care of it. We were taking a trip for a week out of the country and felt so comfortable knowing Scarlet was in great hands! All the photos, texts and updates on Scarlet were even more reassuring! We are so grateful to have found Patrick and Susan for Scarlet and definitely will be using them again! We totally recommend them!!”

“Suzanne is the best! I was actually able to relax on my vacation and not worry about my dog because I knew she was getting excellent care and love while I was away. She also sent daily pictures and updates. I highly recommend her!”

“We have used Elizabeth a few times and are so grateful to have found a Rover (and her family) that are so great with our two dogs, Harry and Jules! Highly recommend Elizabeth if you’re looking for someone to take extra special care of your best buddies!”

“Melissa was very easy to deal with and our dog Sammy seems to have had a great time with her. Melissa gave us several updates on Sammy and sent us lots of pictures of her adventures. I would definitely recommend Melissa to anyone.”

“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Trixie! It’s greatly appreciated. While we hate leaving her, knowing someone else cares for her as much as we do makes it a little easier.”
