“Lucy loves to stay with Austin and his fam! She is always nervous when we travel, but when we pull up to Austin’s, she is happy and ready to hang out with her puppy pals!”
“Fantastic dog sitter! She is compassionate and takes fantastic care of your pet. My dog was happy and comfortable the entire time she was away and the level of care is even better than a professional facility. She even sends daily pictures and videos and that is great when missing your pup. Next time I need to leave my dog I will definitely be sending her back over Nathalias!!”
“Puff is in great shape. Rebekah took very good care of her. I certainly would think of asking her again. I'm so glad Rover.com and Rebekah were there to take care of my kitty when I went on vacation; they get all five stars. Where am I supposed to leave a tip for Rebekah?”
“Melissa was awesome always updating me about mickey . She made him feel comfortable and even thought he had a few accidents she was very understanding and respectful. I highly recommend her and will definitely book her again. Thank you Melissa you were amazing”
“I can’t express how grateful I am that we Kathleen. It was the perfect environment for my dog. She and her very nice family took such good care of him that he felt at home. She also sent us many updates and photos so I knew he was happy and safe. I highly recommend her and would rebook! Thank you so much to Kathleen and family because of your great care I didn’t have to worry about him at all!”
“Taylor and Tyler took amazing care of our dog Darcy! She had a lot of fun, and was in high spirits at pickup time. It was also really nice to get updates and photos from Taylor & Tyler during her stay. We'll definitely be back next time we're visiting the area. Thanks!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our dog, Pippa, than Tara! She watched Pippa for 10 days and treated her like part of the family. Tara was reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals — Pippa absolutely adored her. We got regular updates and photos that showed just how happy and comfortable Pippa was. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was in such loving hands. Tara went above and beyond in every way — we came home to a happy dog. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
About: sitter who understands how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. As a dog owner myself to my pup Easton (“Chicken” 🐾), I know that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort needs. I have experience caring for dogs with different energy levels, personalities, and routines, and I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, medication support if needed, and lots of updates/photos while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals. My availability can vary slightly week to week, but I always try to be flexible and communicative! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals! I work full-time during the school year as an elementary school teacher, so my availability is best during afternoons, evenings, weekends, school vacations, and summer breaks. I always make time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and keeping pets comfortable and cared for while their families are away. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important safety, routine, and trust are when caring for pets. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, supervised, and loved while in my care. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and each dog’s individual personality and comfort level. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away!
“Kevin was great - Farley, my St Bernard, is A LOT! Kevin has just the right vibe to put him at ease and deal with his anxieties. I felt very comfotable having Farley stay with Kevin.”
“Lana had a great weekend while we were away! It was clear she remembered staying there even though it had been a few years. Grateful to have a place for Lana to stay when we’re out of town where she will be safe and cared for.”
“Jennifer and Mark were extremely helpful and accommodating. They treated us with the utmost respect and kindness, always with my dog's care being the main focus. If you need to have someone watch your dog, you will be leaving them in very capable hands. It's evident that the care of their own dogs also extended to your dog. Highly, highly recommended!!”
“Amanda and her family made sure that Mac felt right at home! She provided updates so I knew he was doing well and having fun while I was away. I absolutely recommend Amanda to anyone looking to board their pups! Mac can be anxious but he felt at ease and seemed really excited to be there. Amanda is my new go to sitter and I’m so glad to have found 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 can tell by how eager Splash is when she gets out of the car that she loves vacationing with Sergio. My girl is an abandoned rescue with lots of anxiety but loves hanging out with Sergio. Thank you so much!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Armitage. They take such amazing care of Kharma every single time. Even when Kharma had to stay really late, they were incredibly accommodating and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. At this point, Armitage is the first sitter I call every time without hesitation. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Kharma. The level of care, consistency, and genuine love they show means everything to me.”
“Thank you so so much!! We couldn’t be happier going with Seonmin!! She was so good to Eggo and Eggo was so well taken care of. She sends picture updates everyday and our dog looks happy and makes himself right at home. Highly recommended!!”

“This was an experience that gave us more than we could have expected! Jess is considerate, thoughtful and kind in every way. She kept in contact while we were away with pictures that showed our pet’s comfort level throughout our absence. We were beginning to wonder if she’d want to come home - just kidding.”
“Angela & Adam had great professional holiday energy for my senior kitties. They sent thorough reports and great/festive pictures that made us laugh which helped my son cause he always misses our fur babies when we are out of town. It is so refreshing to meet folks who genuinely love animals and provide top notch care!”
“Anna did a great job taking care of my cats for a week. She posted a lot of really cute pictures when she was playing with them and feeding them, it made me feel a lot better about how they were doing. Also, the cats seemed to like Anna so much that when we got home they didn't seem starved for attention :) We will use her again.”

I received updates and photos that gave me peace of mind, and my pets looked happy, comfortable, and well taken care of when I got home. It’s obvious she genuinely love animals and treats them like her own. I would absolutely trust Alyssa again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”
About: Friends and family have always relied on me to check in, feed and play with their cats as a teen. I recently fostered a kitten for 2 months and fell in love with cat care all over again!
About: Cats have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with family cats and have been caring for my own cat since I was 16—she recently turned 10! Over the years, I’ve gained firsthand experience with everything from daily feeding and litter box maintenance to administering basic care, recognizing changes in behavior, and understanding that every cat has their own unique personality and comfort level. For the past three years, I’ve also provided care for the cats of family members and pet-sitting clients. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I take the time to earn their trust and provide a calm, stress-free environment. My goal is to make sure your feline friend feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“5 stars! Colleen was a wonderful sitter for my cat, Gatsby! I had to leave for a weekend last minute, and she made the effort to come by the apartment beforehand to meet, which I really appreciated. When I go away on trips, even for a few days, Gatsby often gets very anxious, shy, and sometimes even avoids eating food given to him by sitters/ friends. I was so reassured from Colleen's daily updates/photos that he was coming downstairs to meet her each time, and was eating his food each day. This really gave me peace of mind, and when I came home Gatsby was very happy, had eaten all his food, and didn't appear remotely anxious. I will definitely rebook Colleen as a sitter for my next trip!”
About: I’m a proud cat mom to two my five year old cat Astro and my one year old kiko, I’ve been caring for cats for years. I know how to read their moods, give them space when they need it, and offer lots of affection when they want love. I’m great at litter box cleaning, keeping feeding routines on track, and making sure they feel safe and happy. Whether it’s a snuggly lap cat or a spicy one who just wants to vibe, I’ve got them covered with patience and love.

“Austin was Amazing! He took Coco at the last minute and helped me through my first use of Rover. I appreciate him so much! He treated Coco so well and sent pictures during the day. Austin was very patient with puppy behaviors and was polite and respectful during our time with him. I felt safe leaving our puppy with Austin and would recommend him highly.”
“Kathy was amazing with our dog Jax. My baby girl was having surgery in Boston and she put my mind at ease taking great care of our pup. Sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the day which made us super happy! Can’t wait to bring Jax back for another visit!”
“Rebeka is very sweet. Marshall was nervous going to a new place but she sat with him and cuddled with him, which is exactly what works. She was responsive and professional with all communication and we highly recommend her! Marshall had adjusted and was happy by the time we came to pick him up.”
“Kevin provided excellent care for my dog! She was able to play with so many other dogs and get plenty of exercise! I also appreciated the many pictures and updates Kevin sent me. I would absolutely use him again for day care services!”
About: Our mission is to offer people a simple, affordable option for boarding their pets: to keep them fed, safe and company while you're away. There's nothing worse than doubling the price of your vacation just to get your pets looked after! We keep our boarding price more than reasonable to give folks the financial bandwidth to spend their vacation money on their vacation--not on boarding their pets. We are both contract workers with flexible schedules, and Taylor is often able to work from home so your pets will have plenty of companionship! So we told you our mission-- There's a few ways this translates. We have a huge yard. So, we don't take your pups on walks. BUT. We play fetch, tug of war, and intentionally initiate zoomies. If your pup is conditioned to expect walks, it's probably most fair to find a sitter who'll get that walk in! We love a good daytime cuddle, but we also like a good night's rest. So, your pets sleep in the living room, helping us avoid chaos while we're getting shut-eye. We kindly ask that if you book with us, that you're confident your doggies can sleep out on their own without too much fuss! We have an array of options for creating ideal environments for your pets, with baby gates, a large yard that can be segmented for dogs needing smaller spaces or space from others, and multiple kennels. Coming soon, an electric fence with an extra collar for your pup if you'd like it!
About: Over 20 years of experience with pets- I trained my very first dog at only 10 years old! I grew up with a Great Pyrenees and am experienced with large / xl breeds. I absolutely love dogs and animals in general. I have two precious dogs of my own currently who I love more than anything. I’d be thrilled to care for your dog! I work remotely full time as a software engineer! Your pets are welcome to hang out with us for the day when you’re busy. Weekends I can provide even more active care since I have the days off. I have a fenced in yard but depending on your pets needs I can take them out on leash still. I let the dogs out to play frequently, every 2-4 hours.
About: I have worked as a pet sitter for approximately 3 years. I have worked for a pet sitting service for 2 year in Dalton, Ga. Also have a few clients in New Bedford, ma.

I am very dependable and have experience with giving insulin shots to cats and dogs. I will gladly give you exactly what you ask for regarding your pet because I understand how much people cherish their animals .........they are more like people. I have 1 cat and 1 dog of my own and have had ducks, chicken, and birds in my pass. Please contact me so we can talk !....thanks
“Anna was so attentive to my dog- she sent me pictures and updates throughout the day, took him for walks, and made sure he was safe and comfy while I was working.He was so well cared for and wanted to go back inside as soon as we got in the car. Thank you Anna!”
About: Graduate Student & Lifelong Dog Lover 🐾 Hi, I’m Molly! I’m a graduate student in Early Education studying full-time remotely, and walking dogs helps me make ends meet while I gain classroom experience. I’ve been a dog owner and sitter for 20+ years, with experience caring for all breeds and ages—from energetic puppies to senior dogs. I live with my friendly 1.5-year-old Basenji, Reggie, and we walk daily (rain or shine!). I’d love to find regular clients for early morning walks (4:30–6:30 AM) or after 2:30 PM, but I’m also available for same-day, one-off check-ins and walks when you need last-minute help. I’m responsible, active, and treat every pup like family. 🐶💛 Flexible & Reliable Pet Care – Full-Time Availability I offer part-time availability for pet care. Morning walks are part of our daily routine—typically between 5 AM and 8 AM and ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 miles. In the afternoon, I provide a potty break, followed by an evening walk of 0.5 to 1 mile. This schedule works well for my own dog, Reggie, and any pup we’re hosting. I'm available for the below between 3PM and 10PM Scheduled or short-notice dog walks Drop-in visits Daily or multiple-times-a-day walks Weekly routines or one-time services Short-notice check-ins (with a fair, convenience-based fee) Whether your dog needs regular walks, occasional visits, or last-minute help, I'm here to provide safe, loving, and dependable care. Safety-First, Thoughtful Pet Care in a Calm and Controlled Environment For every pet care job—whether it’s dog walking, drop-in visits, or in-home hosting—I approach each responsibility with a safety-first mindset. I begin by assessing the environment, checking for any potential hazards, and observing the dog's temperament, energy level, and overall health to ensure they’re set up for a positive experience. I come fully prepared with all the essentials: leashes, treats, food (if needed), cozy beds and blankets, separate water bowls, poop bags, and anything else your pup might need to feel safe and comfortable. I believe dogs thrive in calm, predictable environments. As the walker or sitter, I take the lead in maintaining a peaceful, structured atmosphere where your dog can feel secure, enjoy their time, and have fun—all while staying under steady and attentive supervision.

I have cared for energetic dogs to calmer dogs and always tailor my care toward their needs. I have dog walking experience on both trail walks and city walks and design appropriate routes depending on the dog’s ability and character. I understand the importance of routine, attentiveness, and gentle handling while caregiving and always follow instructions diligently. Over time, friends and family have relied on me to check in on, feed, play, pet sit, and board their pets for days or weeks while they were away, trusting me to keep their pets safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I currently work from home 3 days a week, only 2 days in office so I will have plenty of time and flexibility to care for pets. I am available Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays for check ins or walks.

I live with my 9 goldfish and two male corgis mixed with Australian cattle dog, 5 and 4 year old now :) I work Monday -Fridays 7am-3pm so I would be available anytime after that during the week and on Saturday and Sundays i am flexible with the times. I look forward to spending time, exercising and playing with your fur babies I'm currently working full time during the week but at night I can take your pups out for walks or play with then in the back yard. And if you happen to have cats I can also feed and play with them too. I love all animals. I don't have boarding as an option, I do offer to stay overnights if needed. I would give your fur baby love attention just as I would give mine.
About: I've lived with animals all my life, cats, outdoor farm dogs, small indoor dogs, to pitties that need a warm blanket and cuddles during storms. I like to study animal behavior in my free time and really feel that I can understand animals of any size and shape. I pride myself on being someone reliable to contact on short notice for emergencies and things of the like! I have my own car to get around efficiently and I'm almost never busy. I will follow the rules of the home and any specifics for each pet, I run on THEIR schedule to keep them as comfortable as possible while their humans are away.
“We signed up for the app and sent a message to Angela and Adam and got a response within minutes. They immediately booked a meet and greet. Our boy,Teddy, still has a bunch of puppy energy and can be intimidating to some because of his size. He is 80lbs of muscle and marshmallow. He is a rescue and not much is known about his past so there were some things we were concerned about in finding someone to walk him, but they both were very confident that they could handle him. Their demeanor made our family feel so comfortable. It's been a week and he has taken to Angela and Adam very well. They communicate when they are on their way and when they've left. They send pics that show he is having a blast. We are very happy knowing that Teddy is getting some exercise and TLC during the day and is in great hands!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15! I’ve had pets all my life growing up though! My neighbors, friends, and family, have relied on me to feed, walk, play, and give cuddles to their pups! I currently am working part time as I just started a new job, so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup and get them some exercise! My home has a fenced in dog park that i’m sure your dog would love to run around in and get some energy out! If your dog is better on a leash and loves to walk and sniff around your area I am happy to do that as well! I just want to be able to give your pup a safe and happy visit 😊
About: I've had all types of animals growing up. From small critters to dogs. Currently own 2 cats named Sasha and Coco, chickens and have 3 freshwater fish tanks. I've house/pet sit for friends over the years. I have pretty good flexibility everyday for short visits > 2 hours. I have two young children in school so depending on time frame one might have to accompany me but if not needed I can work around it. My cats are pretty self sufficient as cats are but they are fed every morning and evening and get treats. They are indoor cats aged 7 and 8. I feed fish daily and do water changes once a week as Maintenance. Chickens are a bit more daily maintenance with cleaning out coop everyday and filling water and feeder but it's rewarding (especially with getting eggs)
“Kristie was so kind with us and Snowball! She asked me questions on how she could take care and walk Snowball. Very responsible, great communication and EXTREMELY sweet! No questions about using her services again! Thank you Kristie! ❤️”
“Anna has been walking my pup for a few weeks now. She came in on an emergency fill in basis and I was glad to ask her to stay on full time. Reliable and thorough with being on time and filling me in on all the details of the walk. She has a great eye with the camera too lol, I always look forward to my daily pictures. Who doesn't feel awful walking out the door in the morning to those eyes looking up at you, feels better when you know someone who cares will see them during the day.”
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 15! Dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits, and fish from all breads and ages, big or small. I take care in bathing, grooming, feeding, and walking! I am currently a full-time college student so I am only available during holiday breaks and in the summer. I take care of my own pets and sisters but I love to keep busy throughout the week!! I can keep to the schedule you give me for your companion! I can give baths, play, feeding, and go on walks. I take lots of pictures and will update you on how the walk/sitting is going frequently. I know every companion has their own personality and will take the time to get to know them to make their experience with sitters a comfortable one!
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life growing up, we had family dogs like beagles, goldendoodles, and a Shih Tzu. While living with my dad in New Bedford, I helped care for his pitbull and spent time with our goldendoodle, too. I’ve also helped friends with their dogs, including caring for a Chihuahua while my friend traveled. I’m confident with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I always treat them with patience, love, and care. specialize in dog walking, cat care, and drop-in visits since I can’t host pets in my home.

I’m all about creating a calm, safe space where pets feel loved and relaxed. I have experience handling different pet personalities and making sure they feel at home , I treat every fur baby like family with lots of love, play, and attention to their routine and comfort.
About: I have 3 dogs of my own! I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life! And I even used to work at a horse farm! I grew up helping take care of goats, chickens, cows and horses! My work schedule is flexible! I spend a lot of time driving around so have plenty of time to run to your house every few hours to let your dog out or take care of any pet needs. My 3 dogs are crate trained, they know how to walk on leash and they also follow commands and walk alongside off leash. I can let dogs out for a quick bathroom break or take them for a walk to help stretch their legs
“I felt very confident when she was enthusiastic about setting up a quick meet and greet. She completed the walk despite a minor collar failure, and I appreciated her transparency with the situation. Professional, polite, and wonderful to work with!”
“Linda was amazing with our girl Luna. She was prompt to pick her up and took her to the park to play with her fur friends followed by a nice long walk. Luna was so happy and tired when she got back home, which was perfect for a nice relaxing afternoon. Thanks again Linda, we will book again soon.”
“Liza is patient, communicative and professional. Our dog is nervous to new people. She greeted him in a way that was appropriate and is building his confidence to trust her and enjoy his walks. She helped me to navigate this app. We feel grateful that Nochi has someone with experience, skill and empathy.”

“Lucy loves to stay with Austin and his fam! She is always nervous when we travel, but when we pull up to Austin’s, she is happy and ready to hang out with her puppy pals!”
“Fantastic dog sitter! She is compassionate and takes fantastic care of your pet. My dog was happy and comfortable the entire time she was away and the level of care is even better than a professional facility. She even sends daily pictures and videos and that is great when missing your pup. Next time I need to leave my dog I will definitely be sending her back over Nathalias!!”
“Puff is in great shape. Rebekah took very good care of her. I certainly would think of asking her again. I'm so glad Rover.com and Rebekah were there to take care of my kitty when I went on vacation; they get all five stars. Where am I supposed to leave a tip for Rebekah?”
“Taylor and Tyler took amazing care of our dog Darcy! She had a lot of fun, and was in high spirits at pickup time. It was also really nice to get updates and photos from Taylor & Tyler during her stay. We'll definitely be back next time we're visiting the area. Thanks!”
About: sitter who understands how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. As a dog owner myself to my pup Easton (“Chicken” 🐾), I know that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort needs. I have experience caring for dogs with different energy levels, personalities, and routines, and I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, medication support if needed, and lots of updates/photos while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals. My availability can vary slightly week to week, but I always try to be flexible and communicative! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals! I work full-time during the school year as an elementary school teacher, so my availability is best during afternoons, evenings, weekends, school vacations, and summer breaks. I always make time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and keeping pets comfortable and cared for while their families are away. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important safety, routine, and trust are when caring for pets. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, supervised, and loved while in my care. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and each dog’s individual personality and comfort level. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away!

“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 can tell by how eager Splash is when she gets out of the car that she loves vacationing with Sergio. My girl is an abandoned rescue with lots of anxiety but loves hanging out with Sergio. Thank you so much!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Armitage. They take such amazing care of Kharma every single time. Even when Kharma had to stay really late, they were incredibly accommodating and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. At this point, Armitage is the first sitter I call every time without hesitation. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Kharma. The level of care, consistency, and genuine love they show means everything to me.”

We will definitely use her again and highly recommend Kimberly for any boarding/doggy day care needs.”
