“Michele is wonderful and really took marvelous care of both our dogs. We loved getting pictures of what they were doing. It was obvious she spent time with them and they were comfortable in her home.”
“Andrea and Bob are so great! This was our 2nd time using them for our trip to the Cape. This year in addition to our dog they watched last year, they also had our ‘new to us’ rescue pup who came with his own set of challenges. :-) Andrea and Bob were so patient and thoughtful in making sure he was comfortable and happy. From the moment you meet them you can tell they do indeed love all the dogs! I highly recommend them!”
“Caitlin was great with Crosby! She communicated well and sent lots of photos and videos. She was flexible with our pick up and drop off times. He looked like he had a great time!”
“Chelsea was fantastic! She was responsive and attentive to our dog. She was so friendly, and our pup Brewster came back exhausted after playing in their fenced in back yard. We also really appreciate the picture updates! I would highly recommend letting Chelsea watch your dog!”
“Karen was wonderful! We dropped our dog off for two nights while visiting family over the weekend. She was very kind and communicative throughout our dog's stay. It was our first time our dog had stayed with her, so the photos and updates were very helpful and appreciated! She gave our dog 1:1 time on walks and sent pictures of our dog relaxing in her home. We were later to pick-up than expected, and she was flexible and understanding! Thank you, Karen for your help with Blue!”
“Alyne was so flexible and accommodating! We had some return travel disasters- a delayed flight and dead car at the airport. Alyne easily agreed to extending our stay for a night due to delay and dropped our dog off at home due to dead car! Our dog was so well cared for during his stay. Was so grateful to her and will definitely be contacting again!”
“Christian was absolutely fantastic taking care of Aspen! We were away in France and had no worries about our pet because we were constantly updated with messages, photos, and check ins about Aspen's status. This is very reassuring as an owner. I have bookmarked Christian's name on Rover for our next vacation!”
“Thank you so, so much again for the wonderful care! Our dog felt very comfortable and happy with you, and we had such a good feeling the entire time. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos — it was so nice to see how well everything was going. We will definitely book again very soon and can highly recommend this dogsitter!”
“Madaket was fantastic, we arrived at the property and my dog Olympia started sprinting around with her dog Millie. The property was also very large, which gave Olympia plenty of room to enjoy herself. Madaket sent several pictures and videos throughout the day. There is nothing better than feeling confident that your dog doesn’t miss you because you know they are having such a good time ?! I’d be happy to leave Olympia there any time! Plus she gave Olympia a little blue bandana ?”
“Zuzana did an amazing job taking care of our lab. Gizmo was a great host and our dog had a blast. Zuzana also went out of her way to purchase a new collar when ours broke last minute. Thank you so much! Would book again 100%!!!”
“Julie was awesome with Walden! She’s had labs herself for many years so she welcomed him with open arms. He had a great time and would love to have her watch him again in the future. Thanks, Julie!”
“Can’t say enough good things about Karen! We just moved here and were so nervous to find a good sitter.. Right off the bat Karen was so gentle and kind with Goldie, sent tons of picture updates, was quick to respond, and I never once felt worried or anxious! Also her dog Juni is the sweetest dog on the planet :) even with their size difference Goldie and Juni became sweet friends!”
“Thank you, Stephen. Maisy loved her time with you. The walks and pets and overall love were much appreciated. Maisy is usually anxious to leave other sitters when we pick her up. However when we came to pick her up from your house, she kept running back and forth between the two of us. That is a sure sign that she had a wonderful stay.”
About: I have extensive experience working with dogs of all sizes. Growing up, my family had large dogs (90+ pounds) for almost all of my life. I have watched and pet-sat for dogs of all sizes in the past few years for neighbors and friends. I’ve recently moved back to the Massachusetts area after a travel-heavy job for the past few years, so no fur babies of my own yet! I look forward to re-exploring some of the wonderful walking trails the Cape offers with your furry friends! I’m currently working as a server part-time, so have plenty of time to play with, walk, and feed your dogs/cats. I am available for boarding or pet-sitting in your home most weeks, and for walks nearly every morning, plus afternoon and evening visits around my (variable) serving shifts. I have a large backyard and walking trails within a 10-minute walk from my house, perfect for leashed adventures! I do not have any pets in the house full-time, but may have my parent’s well-trained and friendly rescue in the house on occasional weekends.
“Could not have asked for a better boarding experience, dropping off/picking up and keeping in touch while I was away. Harriet’s farm is idyllic, and I’m confident my pup was well taken care of and had a great time while there. Thank you, Harriet!”
“Katharine was absolutely wonderful as a Rover host. I had a super-last-minute work trip to Hyannis Port and needed to board Ronan for 2 days. This was my first time using Rover and Kate put me and my old pup at ease immediately with her calming presence. She sent photo and video updates of Ronan having long walks on the beach and time in her yard and house. When I picked him up he was so relaxed and comfortable with her, I think he would have happily stayed several more days! I would definitely book with her again.”
“Kari was wonderful with Hazel. I could tell Hazel adjusted well and enjoyed her time with Kari and her family by the photos and updates Kari provided along the way. I would leave Hazel with Kari again knowing that she would be well cared for.”
“I am grateful to Marcia for taking such good care of my dog. Marcia has extensive experience with dogs and knows a lot about them. My dog was reluctant to leave her when I was picking it up. I am very happy with everything and would contact Marcia first if I need someone to look after my dog in the future.”
About: Hi! My name is Mariana and I am going to be a junior at UMass Amherst. I am currently living on Cape Cod for the summer, looking for pet care opportunities in the Eastham/Cape Cod area. I am very enthusiastic about my love for dogs and have experience with many ages, breeds, and sizes. I have 3 male Rhodesian Ridgebacks at home, named Mo (7), Bernie (2), and Frankie (2 months). Currently, I’m working part time at the Chatham Dog Club. In the past (From Jan 2025-Aug 2025),I had the pleasure of caring for a local family’s dogs: two German Shepards (Mo and Solo) and a Yellow lab (Hubert). Given their differing temperaments and high energy, I was able to orchestrate a safe and fun environment for all 3 dogs. Tasks included preparing meals, cleaning kennels and any other surfaces/food dishes as needed, and observing and participating in play time. Along with many other experiences, this one was truly so enjoyable and reinforced my love of dogs and everything that comes with caring for them. I would love to help you out and give your dogs the loving care they deserve! I am available all summer until the last week of August. I am also very flexible so I am willing to work with you or your schedule if needed! I am able to take your dog on walks with a leash, crate them if needed, play with them in any fenced in or closed off area, learn and give them any training commands they know, feed them, give them treats and pets!

“Emily was fantastic! She was communicative, kind, and took such great care of our cat. She went above and beyond to make sure we came home to a fully clean litter box, too! I'm so glad we found someone we can fully trust with our kitty. And on top of all that, she also takes great pictures! Truly so grateful for everything she did ❤️”
“Skyla did great with our three cats. Typically our cat Hades can be shy around new people. However, he walked up to Skyla right away. She made our cats feel very comfortable and safe. She also sent pictures so we could see how they were doing.”
“Laurie clearly has a love for animals. She made contact every day with pictures. She let us know about an issue with heating. The cat boxes and floor areas were clean when we returned. Food and water were left according to instructions. We would happily hire Laurie again to care for our two cats.”
“Shannon did a great job. When we got home, Harry looked great - he’s 18 and doesn’t like being home alone, so thanks Shannon! I definitely recommend Shannon for any furry baby, but especially our seniors who need a little extra love.”
“Elizabeth took special care of Dahlia and Bubby. She sent pictures everyday and showed Dalia cat TV. I am very pleased with Elizabeth and would definitely use her again. It felt like I was leaving my pets with a trusted friend”
“Christian did a fantastic job taking care of our 14 year old cat, Ludde. Ludde is on medicated diet and had just arrived back to the Cape after some long air plane rides. I was worried leaving him, but Christian put me at ease right away, took great care of Ludde and sent us plenty of photos and pictures. It was a relief to find such a competent and caring pet sitter.”
“Karen did an excellent job. I returned home after four days to find everything in good order and a very happy kitty cat. I will certainly go to Karen again for cat care.”

“On short notice, Chelsea recently took care of Cape Cod’s newest “wash-a-shore” cats, Humpty Dumpty & Red.

My cats & I highly recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for an outstanding pet sitter!”

“Michele took good care of our senior dog so we could be tourists in Chatham for the day! She’s got a great fenced in and grassy back yard and even took notes for our dogs special needs.”
“Andrea and Bob’s love for animals was evident from the start. They provide photos and updates regularly whenever our little Maggie stays with them. When we drop Maggie off at their house she is so excited and eager to go in. We feel fortunate to have Andrea and Bob take care of our little Yorkie whenever we need them to.”
“Definitely recommend and would certainly book again! We used Caitlin for doggy daycare twice during our week holiday in the Cape. Super friendly and flexible, her house was perfect for doggies inside and out. She kept in communication with use thru pics and texts. He had a great time!”
About: I have take care of animals for over 2 decades. Pups are my favorite and I also have chickens and volunteers with horses on a local farm. I respect nature and appreciate what great companions animals are for us humans. I treat them as family members. I had 3 dogs from puppies to their senior age and understand all stages of dog lives. I can play, socialize, train puppies. Walk fast pace with athletic dogs or slow down for littles or seniors. I can give medicine and keep an eye on health any conditions. I have 10yo son who is a huge dog lover and helps out with our dog and chickens and also does barn chores at the farm. I feel so blessed we both feel the same love for all creatures on Earth. I currently work from home, so your pup(s) will have a companion most of the time. I also go on 2-3 walks a day and we have a nice private yard for additional play and relax. We have a private yard, one friendly 2yo Boston terrier who has proven to be more than a gracious host to all sorts of furry visitors. He naturally accepts their energy if they want to play or are shy and need time. We also had some rescues and traumatized pets and Gizmo proved to a respectful companion. He is the reason I love pups and want them to have the most fantastic time in our home.
“Chelsea amazing, nice easy first meet, no stress . Chelsea so calm and professional, perfect match for my energetic lab. . My dog immediately loved her , he came home smiling and tired in a good way . So happy we found her , will be back again soon .”
“Karen watched our pup both for boarding and doggy day care over a very busy holiday weekend. She was wonderful - very flexible, pleasant and great at communicating. Our pup had a great time and was happy and tired when we picked him up. Will definitely reach out to Karen when we are back in the area. Thank you Karen!”

“Alyne was wonderful with my dog Dora. She kept me updated as to how things were going and was available when I went to one of the Islands for the day. My Dora is spoiled rotten and had some separation anxiety which was on me, not on Alyne. Thank you so much Alyne for being extremely patient with her.”

About: Hi, I’m Shannon! I have taken care of cats and dogs since I was a child (including my prior childhood cats with diabetes, heart failure, and AIDS — so I come bearing experience taking care of sick pets, administering medications, etc.). Whether it’s taking energetic dogs on hikes and beach walks, or snuggling with a tame kitty on the couch, I spend time doing whatever the pet enjoys doing the most. I make it my responsibility to go above and beyond in making pets feel not only comfortable but also loved! I am transitioning between working in healthcare and beginning medical school soon — I won’t be working April and May so I have full time to look after fur babies!

About: I am a very compassionate, enthusiastic person that absolutely loves dogs! I don’t have a dog of my own anymore and only take one dog with no other dogs - unless the dogs in your family are more than one - the more the merrier in that case I’m in! I know many dogs do not get along with other dogs which is normal for many dogs, no worries I get it! This is a huge peace of mind for many dogs and their owners- and my specialty catering to one dog - hence my pricing. Believe me it’s worth every penny!

We have an acre of land and half is fenced in for dogs. We have extra cages if desired. Ours never enjoyed their crates. We will follow your schedule and treat your pet like a member of the family.

“Allison is a very good communicator. When she was running late she gave me a generous discount. She followed my instructions carefully and did a great job walking Thurston twice in the same day. Thanks so much!”
“Debbie took our 2 dogs ( German shorthair pointer and chocolate lab) on nice long walk for two days in a row over the weekend. Debbie arrived on time and communicated with me and followed all of my little tips in a note I left for her. She was even able to switch up the arrival time on the second day as needed. Our pointer has to be crated and Debbie was able to easily access and secure the crate. The same dog is young and strong with a tendency to pull on walks and Debbie was easily able to walk both our dogs together and control them. I would definitely book Debbie again.”

“Alexandra is the best! I had an emergency and needed to go to Boston for the day. Alexandra responded to me right away came over and met my three dogs and was able to take care of them twice this past Tuesday. My dogs are leary of new faces-but when Alexandra came in my house, you would think she was a long, lost friend as they loved her immediately! I live in Chatham and would recommend anyone who needs a reliable and friendly dog walker to use Alexandra! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Michele is wonderful and really took marvelous care of both our dogs. We loved getting pictures of what they were doing. It was obvious she spent time with them and they were comfortable in her home.”
“Andrea and Bob are so great! This was our 2nd time using them for our trip to the Cape. This year in addition to our dog they watched last year, they also had our ‘new to us’ rescue pup who came with his own set of challenges. :-) Andrea and Bob were so patient and thoughtful in making sure he was comfortable and happy. From the moment you meet them you can tell they do indeed love all the dogs! I highly recommend them!”
“Caitlin was great with Crosby! She communicated well and sent lots of photos and videos. She was flexible with our pick up and drop off times. He looked like he had a great time!”
“Chelsea was fantastic! She was responsive and attentive to our dog. She was so friendly, and our pup Brewster came back exhausted after playing in their fenced in back yard. We also really appreciate the picture updates! I would highly recommend letting Chelsea watch your dog!”
“Karen was wonderful! We dropped our dog off for two nights while visiting family over the weekend. She was very kind and communicative throughout our dog's stay. It was our first time our dog had stayed with her, so the photos and updates were very helpful and appreciated! She gave our dog 1:1 time on walks and sent pictures of our dog relaxing in her home. We were later to pick-up than expected, and she was flexible and understanding! Thank you, Karen for your help with Blue!”
“Alyne was so flexible and accommodating! We had some return travel disasters- a delayed flight and dead car at the airport. Alyne easily agreed to extending our stay for a night due to delay and dropped our dog off at home due to dead car! Our dog was so well cared for during his stay. Was so grateful to her and will definitely be contacting again!”
“Christian was absolutely fantastic taking care of Aspen! We were away in France and had no worries about our pet because we were constantly updated with messages, photos, and check ins about Aspen's status. This is very reassuring as an owner. I have bookmarked Christian's name on Rover for our next vacation!”
“Thank you so, so much again for the wonderful care! Our dog felt very comfortable and happy with you, and we had such a good feeling the entire time. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos — it was so nice to see how well everything was going. We will definitely book again very soon and can highly recommend this dogsitter!”
“Madaket was fantastic, we arrived at the property and my dog Olympia started sprinting around with her dog Millie. The property was also very large, which gave Olympia plenty of room to enjoy herself. Madaket sent several pictures and videos throughout the day. There is nothing better than feeling confident that your dog doesn’t miss you because you know they are having such a good time ?! I’d be happy to leave Olympia there any time! Plus she gave Olympia a little blue bandana ?”
“We used Cindi for the first time for our energetic Lab. They definitely kept her exercised and happy and sent her home with a new blanket. She was very responsive and sent regular updates, which is what every dog owner loves.”
“Julie was awesome with Walden! She’s had labs herself for many years so she welcomed him with open arms. He had a great time and would love to have her watch him again in the future. Thanks, Julie!”
“Can’t say enough good things about Karen! We just moved here and were so nervous to find a good sitter.. Right off the bat Karen was so gentle and kind with Goldie, sent tons of picture updates, was quick to respond, and I never once felt worried or anxious! Also her dog Juni is the sweetest dog on the planet :) even with their size difference Goldie and Juni became sweet friends!”
“Thank you, Stephen. Maisy loved her time with you. The walks and pets and overall love were much appreciated. Maisy is usually anxious to leave other sitters when we pick her up. However when we came to pick her up from your house, she kept running back and forth between the two of us. That is a sure sign that she had a wonderful stay.”
About: I have extensive experience working with dogs of all sizes. Growing up, my family had large dogs (90+ pounds) for almost all of my life. I have watched and pet-sat for dogs of all sizes in the past few years for neighbors and friends. I’ve recently moved back to the Massachusetts area after a travel-heavy job for the past few years, so no fur babies of my own yet! I look forward to re-exploring some of the wonderful walking trails the Cape offers with your furry friends! I’m currently working as a server part-time, so have plenty of time to play with, walk, and feed your dogs/cats. I am available for boarding or pet-sitting in your home most weeks, and for walks nearly every morning, plus afternoon and evening visits around my (variable) serving shifts. I have a large backyard and walking trails within a 10-minute walk from my house, perfect for leashed adventures! I do not have any pets in the house full-time, but may have my parent’s well-trained and friendly rescue in the house on occasional weekends.
“Could not have asked for a better boarding experience, dropping off/picking up and keeping in touch while I was away. Harriet’s farm is idyllic, and I’m confident my pup was well taken care of and had a great time while there. Thank you, Harriet!”
“Katharine was absolutely wonderful as a Rover host. I had a super-last-minute work trip to Hyannis Port and needed to board Ronan for 2 days. This was my first time using Rover and Kate put me and my old pup at ease immediately with her calming presence. She sent photo and video updates of Ronan having long walks on the beach and time in her yard and house. When I picked him up he was so relaxed and comfortable with her, I think he would have happily stayed several more days! I would definitely book with her again.”
“Kari was wonderful with Hazel. I could tell Hazel adjusted well and enjoyed her time with Kari and her family by the photos and updates Kari provided along the way. I would leave Hazel with Kari again knowing that she would be well cared for.”
“I am grateful to Marcia for taking such good care of my dog. Marcia has extensive experience with dogs and knows a lot about them. My dog was reluctant to leave her when I was picking it up. I am very happy with everything and would contact Marcia first if I need someone to look after my dog in the future.”
About: Hi! My name is Mariana and I am going to be a junior at UMass Amherst. I am currently living on Cape Cod for the summer, looking for pet care opportunities in the Eastham/Cape Cod area. I am very enthusiastic about my love for dogs and have experience with many ages, breeds, and sizes. I have 3 male Rhodesian Ridgebacks at home, named Mo (7), Bernie (2), and Frankie (2 months). Currently, I’m working part time at the Chatham Dog Club. In the past (From Jan 2025-Aug 2025),I had the pleasure of caring for a local family’s dogs: two German Shepards (Mo and Solo) and a Yellow lab (Hubert). Given their differing temperaments and high energy, I was able to orchestrate a safe and fun environment for all 3 dogs. Tasks included preparing meals, cleaning kennels and any other surfaces/food dishes as needed, and observing and participating in play time. Along with many other experiences, this one was truly so enjoyable and reinforced my love of dogs and everything that comes with caring for them. I would love to help you out and give your dogs the loving care they deserve! I am available all summer until the last week of August. I am also very flexible so I am willing to work with you or your schedule if needed! I am able to take your dog on walks with a leash, crate them if needed, play with them in any fenced in or closed off area, learn and give them any training commands they know, feed them, give them treats and pets!
