“Stephen took extra sweet care of my bulldog Stella. Fantastic and frequent communicator, I truly appreciate the updates and pictures of Stella throughout her stay. 100% would recommend Stephen and consider for future Cape boarding needs!”
“We adopted Igor very recently and we knew it would be asking a lot of him to board so quickly. They took such great care of him and his separation anxiety. I would not hesitate to bring Igor back for visits and stays in the future. Thank you again for being so kind!”
“Caitlin was great. She was friendly, accommodating, has a great place, and most importantly, she took good care of our dog Abbie. I can absolutely recommend her.”
“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.”
“Julie is a dedicated and warmly caring person whose care of my two dogs while I was away in Europe went over and above the expected. She was especially attentive to my sweet old 16+ year old Wheaten, showing just how well she knows how to meet the needs of a senior dog. Thank you, Julie!”
About: I have spent my entire life around dogs, but my professional experience sets me apart when it comes to reading and handling animals. For almost 3 years I worked as a Pet Care Specialist. I was responsible for the specialized daily care, behavioral monitoring, and medical treatment of all sorts of animals; birds, reptiles, small mammals, fish, etc. I am experienced and comfortable administering medication and recognizing signs of illness, in the case that you have a dog with specialized needs. Today, I work professionally as a dog groomer. Every day I work hands on with dogs of all sizes ages, and temperaments. Because of this, I have the experience and patience necessary to deal with anxiety prone dogs, high energy balls of chaos, puppies who haven't yet learned manners, and senior dogs who need gentle care. I'm confident I can meet your dogs needs, whatever they may be, and ensure their stay with me is as comfortable as possible. I'm also happy to provide my available grooming services if that's of any interest to you! I work 8 hour shifts at the grooming salon, and I am free on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, which gives me full, dedicated days to spend at home with your dog(s). For the days I am at work, a responsible family member will always be available at the house, to assist with potty breaks or just to hang out. Your pup will only ever be alone if they want to be. This allows me to provide boarding any day of the week! My home is fully equipped to be a safe, fun, and adaptable "home away from home" for your dog. Here is what you can expect during their stay: Secure & Spacious Play: We have a large, fenced backyard where your dog can safely run and play. We are located in a lovely, quiet neighborhood right next door to a large recreational field/park with a walking trail. For more adventurous pups, we also have excellent wooded trails nearby as well. Socialization & Companionship: My family will be more than happy to provide extra human interaction throughout the day if your dog is seeking it. We also have 2 friendly resident dogs (a gentle, senior Shih Tzu who mostly minds her own business, and a social English Pointer who will be happy to make new friends) and 2 cats who are well accustomed to dogs, but will mostly keep to themselves. Separation When Needed: While socialization is great, it's not for everyone. If your dog is anxious, or just feeling overwhelmed, I have my own private, dedicated space where they can get away from all the hubbub of the household, and enjoy some downtime. I am also fully able to accommodate crate-trained dogs if that's something they prefer. They are also more than welcome to share my furniture if they're more of a lap-dog type! As a professional pet handler, I promise to stay aware of your dog's body language and ensure they're recieving the best care possible. Their safety and peace of mind are my top priority.
“Andrea and Bob truly went above and beyond watching my mini bernedoodle while I visited friends on the cape! She instantly felt at home in the yard and went on lots of adventures on the beach, a trail, and jeep rides! I was worried she would never want to leave. Penny was in heaven and hopes to be back soon!”
“Alyna was great! She took our dog with short notice and did a great job. He is a 9 month golden retriever and has a lot of energy, and she handled him very well. Would definitely recommend!”
“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!”
“Michele was great with Hazel! She was very communicative and sent picture updates throughout the day. She was very thorough in her questions before caring for Hazel, and made sure she knew everything she could to make Hazel comfortable during her stay. Overall, Michele was amazing and would highly recommend!”
“Maria is so sweet and caring. She has a genuine love of animals and it’s evident in the way she treated my fur baby. I highly recommend Maria for all your dog sitting needs. I’ll definitely contact her again.”
“Cindi is an absolute professional; she is very communicative and organized. Her house is clean and she only takes one family at a time so that she can give your dog(s) all the attention and care that they individually need. A wonderful experience and we look forward to using her again!”
About: Hi! We’re a dependable, dog-loving family offering in-home dog boarding and dog sitting on Cape Cod. If you’re looking for a safe, attentive, and comfortable home for your dog while you’re away, you’ve found it. We both work from home, so your dog will never be alone. We have a small, friendly Labradoodle who loves other dogs and is very used to sharing his space. Because of that, visiting dogs typically adjust quickly and feel right at home here. We’ve cared for many friends’ dogs over the years, including puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. We’re comfortable with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines, from active dogs who need lots of playtime and walks to more relaxed dogs who just want a calm, cozy environment. We have used pet sitters several times for our own travels, so we know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your beloved fur baby with a stranger. We will make your dog one of our family and give you regular updates, including photos. We know how important it is to trust who you leave your dog with. Our goal is simple: make your dog feel safe, happy, and cared for, so you can relax while you’re away. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet & greet—we’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits very naturally into our daily routine because we both work from home full-time. This allows us to build our day around the dogs in our care rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. Our typical day includes morning potty breaks and walks, followed by a relaxed workday where dogs have plenty of supervision, companionship, and opportunities to go outside as needed. We take breaks throughout the day for playtime, short walks, and attention, depending on each dog’s energy level and routine. In the evenings, we usually incorporate longer walks, playtime, or wind-down time, making sure dogs are settled and comfortable before bedtime. Because dogs are part of our home environment, they’re included in our daily rhythm—not treated as an afterthought. On weekends, we’re generally home and maintain a similar routine, with even more flexibility for walks, outdoor time, and one-on-one attention. Overall, having dogs in our care is something we genuinely enjoy and prioritize, and our schedule allows us to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day and week. We care for every dog as if they’re our own, with a focus on keeping their routine consistent, their environment safe, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. Before any stay, we take time to understand your dog’s daily routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any quirks or preferences—so we can mirror what they’re used to at home as closely as possible. In our home, dogs get: Plenty of supervision (we both work from home, so they’re rarely alone) Regular potty breaks, walks, and playtime based on their energy level A calm, safe environment with space to relax or socialize Lots of attention and affection throughout the day We’re also comfortable administering basic medications if needed and following any specific care instructions you provide.
“Marc was fantastic. My little 13 year old, 9 lb. Maltese mix rescue had never been boarded anywhere before and stayed with Marc for a full week. Marc provided excellent care as well as updates and photos twice a day. I highly recommend him.”
“Clare is absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond in every way and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It was clear she genuinely cares about the animals in her charge, and we came home to one very happy pup. We will 100% be booking with Clare again and cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Shiloh was well taken care of during his five days with Debra and her family, and he loved running in her huge high-fenced yard with her doggies. I will definitely consider leaving him with Debar on future trips.”

“I highly recommend Kelly for cat sitting! She was punctual and kept a good routine going with our cat Blue during our absence. She kept us in the loop with lots of photos our cat during her visits. I could tell from Kelly’s photos with him that he was super appreciative of the company and interaction he got from her while we were away. When we returned we got a happy welcome from Blue and slipped right back into our routine with him.”
“Wonderful! Communicative, timely, knows what she's doing, friendly, goes above and beyond, and sends excellent photos of your furry friend! Took excellent care of my guy Chauncey, will definitely hire her again in future.”
“Sarah was great, I would recommend her to other pet parents. She was responsive and friendly and send us daily updates with photos. Our cat Tsuki seemed happy and relaxed when we got home.”
“Sarah did a great job of taking care of our pet kitty Tally and helping us navigate our first time using the Rover service. She kept us informed of her coming and goings and gave exceptional good care of our cat that has kidney disease. We will definitely use Sarah’s services in the future.”
About: Hi my name is Kendall, I’m looking to spend time with your furry four legged friends! I am an avid animal lover and have grown-up around animals my entire life. From cats to dogs, from guinea pigs to turtles I’ve had them all as pets and cared for them whole heartedly. I have lots of experience pet sitting and dog walking for neighbors and friends all through high school and college. I currently own a dachshund mix and love him dearly. I enjoy spending quality time with dogs walking, bushing, and playing with them. I do send text and picture updates of owner’s dogs upon request. Feel free to send me a message if you’re in need of a pet sitter or dog walker. I have a full time IT job working from home, but the flexibility in my schedule allowed me to check on your pets or bring my work with me on my phone. I am more than happy to check in and/or walk your dog, I am very attentive to my surroundings. Your pet is in good hands with me.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life and career. I currently manage a veterinary hospital and have experience working alongside both general practice and emergency veterinary teams. As a pet parent to a nervous, reactive dog, I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities. Whether your pet loves adventure, playtime, quiet companionship, or requires a little extra patience and understanding, I’ll make sure they receive attentive, compassionate care tailored to them.
“Lily was hired to stop by and care for my two cats Sean and Master Jeremy while away on a trip. Lily followed all instructions and did a fantastic job. I highly recommend her services as a dedicated and caring cat sitter.”
About: I have cared for pets my whole life and frequently care for friend’s pets when needed. I have a home in Yarmouth, work remotely full time and always open to caring for pets in their own home if preferred. I have an amazing cat of my own that loves other animals. I also have a 16 year old daughter that has helped raise dogs & cats since she was a baby. I look forward to connecting with you and caring for your fur baby!
“Meg was great with Roxy! I had booked Meg to house sit for my senior cat who, while intolerant of other animals, craves social contact from humans. In addition, she needs daily thyroid medication. Having a neighbor drop in once a day to clean the litter box and feed her wasn't going to cut it as Roxy tends to become stressed when her routine is changed very much, and she really needed someone to be there with her in the evenings/overnight. I was glad that Meg was available to house sit while I was out of state for a week. As luck would have it, however, Roxy showed symptoms of a UTI on the night before I was to leave, and I was concerned about leaving her. Because she's had UTIs before, I knew the signs and that she would be OK if she went to the vet the next day for a shot of antibiotics. I was able to make an appointment with the vet from the airport, and Meg brought Roxy to the vet at the end of the day. It was such a relief to know that Roxy was in such good hands! Meg kept me apprised with daily updates, and I returned home to find a happy, healthy cat! I would recommend Meg to anyone :)”
About: Cats are therapeutic; I cherish quality time playing and socialising with their unique personalities, recognising each cat’s individual needs. I can administer medication and also evaluate any pets condition! I can take them to appointments and also evaluate any essential changes needed in their diet or environment! <3

“We had a fantastic experience with Cindi through Rover while vacationing in Cape Cod. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond to make Finnegan feel comfortable and loved. She arranged a meet and greet a few days before the drop-off, during which she asked thoughtful questions and took notes on Finnegan’s preferences, showing her genuine care and attention to detail. Despite the less-than-ideal weather, Cindi took Finnegan on multiple walks, demonstrating her dedication and love for dogs. Throughout his stay, she kept us wonderfully updated with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected even from afar. When it was time to pick him up, Finnegan ran right to her door like he owned the place a clear sign of how happy and comfortable he was with her. We will definitely be using Cindi again and highly recommend her to other dog owners looking for a caring, attentive, and reliable sitter.”
“Abby was so amazing!!! I work long hours at the hospital and she not only picked my dog up from my apt but went above and beyond, taking my dog to the dog park and the beach! She sent multiple updates throughout the day. She was also easy to reach, very responsive, and friendly. I would highly recommend Abby to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Maria and Mike were friendly and welcoming to both our dogs and us. The house is in a picturesque location on the cape and incredibly dog friendly. I felt such relief knowing our girls were in such a wonderful place with really good people. 5 Stars ?????”
“I enjoyed meeting Peter. He took care of my pup, Chip, and provided him with a home and a play pal for the day. Chip was happy and I was able to relax and enjoy my event. Peter provided me with peace of mind knowing that my Chip was in good hands. That’s all a dog parent can ask for. Thank you kindly, Peter. Hope to see you and Scooby again soon! Hugs, Chip and Eris”
About: Hi, I’m Jenny! I’m thrilled to meet your canine, feline, or even small animal best friend. Growing up surrounded by animals, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, and guinea pigs. I’ve also fostered cats, boarded dogs, and taken courses in animal behavior and cognition, giving me a solid foundation in understanding pets’ needs. I work from home, which allows me to provide flexible and personalized care for your pet. Whether it’s walks to a nearby park, playtime or adhering to your pet’s specific routine, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels at home. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings.

About: I am a physical therapist who has a passion for working with people, however, I interact with people quite often. SO, what I really enjoy is making the time to cuddle or walk with furry friends any chance I can get. As a former doctoral student, I have learned how to manage time well, organize and prioritize. I have over 8 years of experience dog sitting for family members and these dogs include small breeds (Coton de Tulear and Dachshund), medium breeds (Beagle/Australian Sheperd mix) and large breeds (Pitbull/Boxer mix, Boxer, and Lab/Pitbull mix). I have administered medication on a strict schedule, bathed, walked and snuggled with all of these pups, showing nothing but love and dedication. I take all safety precautions to ensure gates are closed when necessary, human food is placed far out of reach, and all doors are shut that lead to tempting, tasty objects such as shoes and remotes. My experience with a variety of breeds and sizes makes me stand out, as well as my ability to handle high energy dogs who may appear confrontational at first. If you choose me to watch your fur babies, there is no doubt that they will be in good hands with someone who is dedicated to ensuring they are comfortable, happy and well taken care off. I have a very flexible schedule, I am in between jobs at the moment, so as long as I have enough notice, I am willing to make anything work! At my house I have to flexibility to take the dogs out as needed, I have a dog currently who is friendly with others. In my clients’ homes, I respect the client’s instructions and can perform any task they need! I respect the home and privacy as I have also had Rover sitters in my home and would want someone trustworthy.
“My dog, Kiwi, had a fabulous visit with Andrea and Bob! They were extremely communicative and accommodating before our visit. They took care to learn Kiwi’s quirks, likes, and dislikes (she has a big personality, so there are a lot!). They even had toys and balls at their house for her to play with. It’s clear that they are experienced and intuitive dog caretakers, which is so important to me as a nervous dog mom. When I went to pick her up, Kiwi was all smiles and happy body language…I know she had a fabulous time and can’t wait to go back! Thank you, Andrea and Bob.”
About: I’ve lived with, cared for and loved pets for my whole life. I’ve been helping friends, family members and neighbors with their dogs for many years. Having just lost my beloved dog of the last 11 years, I truly miss the company and would love to spend time with and help someone out with theirs. I'm a reliable, easy going person who genuinely loves spending time with pups of all shapes and sizes. Whether your dog is full of zoomies or prefers a slow sniff-and-stroll, I'm happy to match their vibe. I am new mom with a little one. I’m enjoying my days at home with him. I can have him tag along or come alone. I have a fenced in back yard for your pup to run around in. I’m happy to walk your pup in your neighborhood or bring them on adventure to one of many walking spots the Cape has to offer.
“Simply elated to have found Ruby to care for my sweet Poppy for the day. She was more than accommodating and made sure Poppy was well cared for. She provided updates and pics so I could see how happy Poppy was. And she had dogs for Poppy to play with along with a beautiful yard. I highly recommend.”

“Kelly is clearly great with dogs and knowledgeable about different dog personalities. She did great taking our dog for walks and updating us along the way! Her flexible schedule is an added bonus.”
“Excellent communication. Great photos. I had to be away in Colorado and it was so good to have the dogs walked while at a friends house. Cora is still potty training and I really needed the help. You can also tell Stephanie really loves dogs.”
“So happy to have found Kristen! My two dogs are very anxious and Kristen took the time to come meet them prior to the first visit. She played ball with the dogs and was patient with them as they got used to a new human!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life and career. I currently manage a veterinary hospital and have experience working alongside both general practice and emergency veterinary teams. As a pet parent to a nervous, reactive dog, I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities. Whether your pet loves adventure, playtime, quiet companionship, or requires a little extra patience and understanding, I’ll make sure they receive attentive, compassionate care tailored to them.

About: Hello dog owners and friends! My name is Steve and I am a retired professional who calls Cape Cod home. I enjoy taking care of adult and senior pets. (Please note that my regular clients have a locked-in rate that is lower than the rate stated in my Rover Profile). Rates for new clients are sometimes negotiable. For Starters - I have ramps into my house and into my completely fenced-in back yard. I make every effort to make your dog feel like they are home. I have several dog beds throughout the house and provide easy access to my back yard. I am adept at giving medications, if necessary during your dog's stay. I live close to 2 cranberry bogs, which I use to walk larger dogs during their stay. I have been a pet owner since 2007 and have rescued a number of senior dogs since that time. Currently, I have a new senior addition to my household; Bailey, a very chill mini-border collie. She gets a long with most dogs and all people. I retired from my job in the pharmaceutical industry at an early age so that I could enjoy many years of retirement and doing the things that I enjoy such as taking care of other people's pets. I have a fenced in yard and provide water bowls both inside and outside my house. I keep a crate handy for separation issues. I have pill pockets for any medications that need to be given.
About: Working professional on Cape starting Rover to exercise more and be with animals! Your pup or kitty come first: what are the instructions we talked about? What’s their mood/temperament at this visit? How many cute pics can I get before my phone storage is full again? Jokes aside, your pets routine and health/safety are what I’m here to maintain — I’ll communicate, play, chat while I give them meds wrapped in peanut butter — you name it, I am paying attention to them. I am in it for the quality animal time! I spent my childhood with horses and learned young how deeply connected we are to our animals. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life until lately. I’d be delighted to meet some of you here on Cape to watch over your little ones! I work full time and am available for dog walks reliably all weekend and after work. I accept weekend dog boarding. Cat boarding I accept throughout the week in addition to weekends. The animal comes first, simple as that. I offer dog walks around Cape, in home visits to feed and play in the yard, and selective boarding of pups in my own home as that’s limited to weekends only. I offer house visits to kitties as well as selective boarding in my own home. Each scenario is unique — let’s chat!
About: I have experience as a veterinary assistant, and have worked with so many different animals! I have lots of hands-on experience and knowledge of animal health and care. I have worked with a doggy daycare as well and loved every second. I know how important it is to find a pet sitter that really cares! I can go on long or short walks depending on the dog’s ability. I have cared for puppies to senior dogs, so I know the different activity levels. If away, I will make sure your animal is eating, drinking, and going to the bathroom normally, and I will always let the owner know if something seems wrong. I will also gladly send pictures when asked! Can administer medication. I am also fully insured! I will always make sure pets are safe and secure when leaving homes. I can crate dogs if ever needed. I will feed on schedule and go on walks accordingly. I will follow all protocols given by owners, and I will clean up messes from the animals if that ever happens. Your pet will be in good hands, and if anything seems wrong with the animal while you are gone, I will call the owner or, in case of an emergency, bring she/him to the vet. I am currently working part-time, so I have lots of time to play with your animals! I am available on weekends and weekdays. I am always willing to fit you in around my open schedule! I provide attentive care tailored to your pet's needs. This includes regular feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I maintain a clean and safe environment, ensuring your pet's comfort and well-being at all times.
About: Hi there! I’m a professional veterinary technician with four years of hands-on clinical experience. My background means I bring a much higher level of care, safety, and medical knowledge to your pets than your average pet sitter. I am currently a stay at home mom once my kiddos go off to school for the day. I’ll have late mornings into afternoons for your pet needs. I will not be doing any pet sitting at my own home, but if there ever was an opportunity where it could work out and was needed I do have a fenced in yard and a dog friendly dog
“Olivia is a wonderful dog walker! She is attentive to details, always makes sure my dog has fresh water, give him treats, and takes great care of him. It’s clear how much she cares about the dogs she works with. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had various pets throughout 15 years of my life. I have also dog-sat both in client’s houses and hosted pets. I have had more than 4 pets at once; all different sizes and ages.

I am great with puppies, adult, and senior dogs & cats (plus others). I love to work with animals experiencing anxieties and rescues. Enjoying time with children and introducing them and teaching how to treat family pet(s). Happy to combine tasks or handle any practical errands. Available early mornings, annd after 11 PM—ideal for your lunch hour— 5 PM to 9 PM so you can enjoy your evening with family. Let me be the room to rush to tend to your fur babies!

Playtime is essential for all cognitive types and stimulation. I enjoy playing music for various activities—napping to socialising—and respect clients’ pet-care preferences. I also share updates on experiences and achievements, along with taking high-quality pictures.

“Stephen took extra sweet care of my bulldog Stella. Fantastic and frequent communicator, I truly appreciate the updates and pictures of Stella throughout her stay. 100% would recommend Stephen and consider for future Cape boarding needs!”
“We adopted Igor very recently and we knew it would be asking a lot of him to board so quickly. They took such great care of him and his separation anxiety. I would not hesitate to bring Igor back for visits and stays in the future. Thank you again for being so kind!”
“Caitlin was great. She was friendly, accommodating, has a great place, and most importantly, she took good care of our dog Abbie. I can absolutely recommend her.”
“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.”
“Julie is a dedicated and warmly caring person whose care of my two dogs while I was away in Europe went over and above the expected. She was especially attentive to my sweet old 16+ year old Wheaten, showing just how well she knows how to meet the needs of a senior dog. Thank you, Julie!”
About: I have spent my entire life around dogs, but my professional experience sets me apart when it comes to reading and handling animals. For almost 3 years I worked as a Pet Care Specialist. I was responsible for the specialized daily care, behavioral monitoring, and medical treatment of all sorts of animals; birds, reptiles, small mammals, fish, etc. I am experienced and comfortable administering medication and recognizing signs of illness, in the case that you have a dog with specialized needs. Today, I work professionally as a dog groomer. Every day I work hands on with dogs of all sizes ages, and temperaments. Because of this, I have the experience and patience necessary to deal with anxiety prone dogs, high energy balls of chaos, puppies who haven't yet learned manners, and senior dogs who need gentle care. I'm confident I can meet your dogs needs, whatever they may be, and ensure their stay with me is as comfortable as possible. I'm also happy to provide my available grooming services if that's of any interest to you! I work 8 hour shifts at the grooming salon, and I am free on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, which gives me full, dedicated days to spend at home with your dog(s). For the days I am at work, a responsible family member will always be available at the house, to assist with potty breaks or just to hang out. Your pup will only ever be alone if they want to be. This allows me to provide boarding any day of the week! My home is fully equipped to be a safe, fun, and adaptable "home away from home" for your dog. Here is what you can expect during their stay: Secure & Spacious Play: We have a large, fenced backyard where your dog can safely run and play. We are located in a lovely, quiet neighborhood right next door to a large recreational field/park with a walking trail. For more adventurous pups, we also have excellent wooded trails nearby as well. Socialization & Companionship: My family will be more than happy to provide extra human interaction throughout the day if your dog is seeking it. We also have 2 friendly resident dogs (a gentle, senior Shih Tzu who mostly minds her own business, and a social English Pointer who will be happy to make new friends) and 2 cats who are well accustomed to dogs, but will mostly keep to themselves. Separation When Needed: While socialization is great, it's not for everyone. If your dog is anxious, or just feeling overwhelmed, I have my own private, dedicated space where they can get away from all the hubbub of the household, and enjoy some downtime. I am also fully able to accommodate crate-trained dogs if that's something they prefer. They are also more than welcome to share my furniture if they're more of a lap-dog type! As a professional pet handler, I promise to stay aware of your dog's body language and ensure they're recieving the best care possible. Their safety and peace of mind are my top priority.
“Andrea and Bob truly went above and beyond watching my mini bernedoodle while I visited friends on the cape! She instantly felt at home in the yard and went on lots of adventures on the beach, a trail, and jeep rides! I was worried she would never want to leave. Penny was in heaven and hopes to be back soon!”
“Alyna was great! She took our dog with short notice and did a great job. He is a 9 month golden retriever and has a lot of energy, and she handled him very well. Would definitely recommend!”
“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!”
“Michele was great with Hazel! She was very communicative and sent picture updates throughout the day. She was very thorough in her questions before caring for Hazel, and made sure she knew everything she could to make Hazel comfortable during her stay. Overall, Michele was amazing and would highly recommend!”
“Cindi is an absolute professional; she is very communicative and organized. Her house is clean and she only takes one family at a time so that she can give your dog(s) all the attention and care that they individually need. A wonderful experience and we look forward to using her again!”
About: Hi! We’re a dependable, dog-loving family offering in-home dog boarding and dog sitting on Cape Cod. If you’re looking for a safe, attentive, and comfortable home for your dog while you’re away, you’ve found it. We both work from home, so your dog will never be alone. We have a small, friendly Labradoodle who loves other dogs and is very used to sharing his space. Because of that, visiting dogs typically adjust quickly and feel right at home here. We’ve cared for many friends’ dogs over the years, including puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. We’re comfortable with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines, from active dogs who need lots of playtime and walks to more relaxed dogs who just want a calm, cozy environment. We have used pet sitters several times for our own travels, so we know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your beloved fur baby with a stranger. We will make your dog one of our family and give you regular updates, including photos. We know how important it is to trust who you leave your dog with. Our goal is simple: make your dog feel safe, happy, and cared for, so you can relax while you’re away. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet & greet—we’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits very naturally into our daily routine because we both work from home full-time. This allows us to build our day around the dogs in our care rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. Our typical day includes morning potty breaks and walks, followed by a relaxed workday where dogs have plenty of supervision, companionship, and opportunities to go outside as needed. We take breaks throughout the day for playtime, short walks, and attention, depending on each dog’s energy level and routine. In the evenings, we usually incorporate longer walks, playtime, or wind-down time, making sure dogs are settled and comfortable before bedtime. Because dogs are part of our home environment, they’re included in our daily rhythm—not treated as an afterthought. On weekends, we’re generally home and maintain a similar routine, with even more flexibility for walks, outdoor time, and one-on-one attention. Overall, having dogs in our care is something we genuinely enjoy and prioritize, and our schedule allows us to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day and week. We care for every dog as if they’re our own, with a focus on keeping their routine consistent, their environment safe, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. Before any stay, we take time to understand your dog’s daily routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any quirks or preferences—so we can mirror what they’re used to at home as closely as possible. In our home, dogs get: Plenty of supervision (we both work from home, so they’re rarely alone) Regular potty breaks, walks, and playtime based on their energy level A calm, safe environment with space to relax or socialize Lots of attention and affection throughout the day We’re also comfortable administering basic medications if needed and following any specific care instructions you provide.
“Marc was fantastic. My little 13 year old, 9 lb. Maltese mix rescue had never been boarded anywhere before and stayed with Marc for a full week. Marc provided excellent care as well as updates and photos twice a day. I highly recommend him.”
“Clare is absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond in every way and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It was clear she genuinely cares about the animals in her charge, and we came home to one very happy pup. We will 100% be booking with Clare again and cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Shiloh was well taken care of during his five days with Debra and her family, and he loved running in her huge high-fenced yard with her doggies. I will definitely consider leaving him with Debar on future trips.”
“Would give 10 stars if I could! We needed a place for Ruby to stay for a full month. Chelsea was amazing during the entire process, she was super helpful in setting up Ruby’s stay. She was so flexible in scheduling time for us to visit Ruby during the month and great at communicating with us. Ruby LOVED staying at Chelsea’s and was actually really sad for a few days when we got home. Would absolutely book with Chelsea again, thank you so much for taking such amazing care of our girl! ??”
“Ann was great! We did a meet and greet ahead of time and communication was great for the overnight. You could tell Philly was comfortable the whole time. Will absolutely book again.”
