About: Graduated from UNH class 2014 with a Bachelors in Zoology. Proud to have over 20 years of animal care. 15 years of multi pet ownership . ---Raised and trained 8 dogs from puppy to adult. Spent 6 months volunteering at an animal shelter. Have completed Two separate 10 session dog training courses with a certified dog trainer. Have completed online Instructional courses on E-collar training and behavior modification. Have experience handling dogs with behavioral issues/quirks Have cared for pets of family and friends in addition to my own for over 15 years . My family and I currently have two dogs and a lizard, so pet care is part of our daily routine, 24/7 365. My own dogs are walked daily and stimulated through play and training. When we are home as a family, the dogs are out with us enjoying life. When we are out of the house, they are either crated or secured in a room with fresh water. Safety/Security and respecting the animals are my core values. While the animals in my home are cared for like family, they are taught to respect boundaries and work for affection. In my care, pets are leashed unless they are in a secure, fenced area. I take the time to understand each animal is an individual who has unique needs. I cater my approach to each animal based on their specific demeanor.
“Matthew & Jennifer were amazing hosts for our dog, Griffey. They provided numerous updates about his day. He came home happy and healthy. I can't recommend them highly enough.”
“Roxanne did a great job! She sent us super detailed updates on our dog which helped us feel comfortable and she was flexible and communicative. Her daughter was also a pro with our dog! We would definitely use her again”
“Helen is a fabulous person who took amazing care of our pup Maverick!! I loved the daily updates of our dog with hers and could tell she just loves animals. I will definitely book with her the next time we need a dog sitter!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better place for Frankie to be while we were away.A fenced in back yard where she could run and play with other dogs.The pictures they sent gave us a great feeling while we away and missing her.Our nephew just got a puppy and we told him we would highly recommend Ben and Sarah.”
“We had an excellent experience with Debra. Our 9 year old cockapoo had never been boarded outside of family, and I was a little apprehensive about leaving him with someone I didn’t know. After our first meeting, I knew that I had made the best choice for Wally and for me. Debra always takes the time for a meet and greet prior to drop off so that our boy had the opportunity to meet her and her dogs, who are all very well behaved and welcoming. You can tell that Debra loves working with dogs and takes her responsibility very seriously. She has a lovely large home and huge fenced in back yard that the dogs can access via a dog door. Debra had great communication and was flexible with drop off and pickup times. She kept me updated with some photos so that I could relax and enjoy my sons wedding. I couldn’t have been happier and highly recommend Debra as a knowledgeable and trustworthy dog care provider.”
“Kelsie and her young family are amazing. They took very good care of my maltipoo and sent pictures of her while we were away. They cuddled w her and made her part of their family! Would highly recommend them!!”

“Angela, Paul, and Ana took amazing care of Beau! They sent lots of updates and photos of his time with them -- and it was wonderful seeing how well he was doing and knowing he was getting tons of attention while we were away! They went above and beyond, and we know Beau will definitely want to go back with them again!”
“Lora took great care of our dog while we were away. She sent us pictures and gave us frequent updates. It was great knowing our dog was happy and in good hands while we were away on vacation. Would definitely recommend Lora and will use her again in the future!”
“Misty had a great time staying at Stefani and her family’s home. When I first came to there home for a meet a greet, I was surprised to see Christopher, Stefani’s little boy, waiting at the door step calling out for Misty. He was super excited. He treated Misty as his own. Stefani was very flexible with me especially when I arrived late to pick Misty up. There home is dog friendly and her husband even built a ramp for the dogs to go to the backyard without having to climb the stairs. Stefani sent me great pictures of Misty that I posted some online. I would board Misty again at Stefani’s home.”
“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!!”

About: I grew up on a small farm and have always loved creatures great and small. I have always had pets and have been a caregiver for friend’s dogs for years. I am now home full time and welcome the opportunity to slather love on more critters 🩷 I am currently home full time so have all the time in the world to spend with the animals. In warm weather I can leave the back door open allowing dogs to come in and out as the please. I have a fenced yard and a sweet 6 year old plott hound (Mojo), many fish, an axolotl (Buggie), and a hamster (Donut). My husband and I have two boys aged 10 and 12 who love animals as much as I do.
About: I have pet-sat for friends and neighbors for several years. I’m comfortable with walks, feedings, and making sure each pet gets plenty of love and playtime. I focus on keeping pets happy and comfortable while maintaining their normal routines. I am currently home during the day with a flexible schedule. I love getting out for fresh air and exercise. I only care for one pet family at a time so I am a perfect option for dogs that don’t get along well with other dogs or prefer to be the main attraction. Getting the opportunity to walk, play and meet your fur babies needs would brighten my day! Safety is my top priority. With your dog being my only guest I can give ensure they get personalized attention. I never leave dogs unattended outside or off-leash in unfenced areas. I am familiar with dog body language and know how to handle dogs of all sizes safely.
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover who grew up begging for a dog. After college, I brought home my first dog—a golden retriever who was the center of my world. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with dogs of all kinds: high-energy, troublemakers, dogs with medical needs, seniors, and everything in between. I’m comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I truly enjoy getting to know what makes each dog unique. After meeting my husband, we added a rescue to our household and regularly help care for and babysit dogs for family and friends. After saying goodbye to my beloved Golden, our house has felt a little empty. While we’re not ready to add another full time dog, we love welcoming an extra companion to our home for short term stays! Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve while you’re away. I am a mom of two young children and currently at home with them and our rescue dog. I said goodbye to my senior golden last year and have missed having that extra companion. I have plenty of space both indoors and outdoors, and lots of time to devote to your dog. I have a dog-safe, child-proof home. My yard is partially fenced, and I also have an electric fence available for dogs trained to use one (my dog does not use it). My house is located in a quiet, wonderful neighborhood with sidewalks and low-traffic roads—perfect for safe, enjoyable walks.

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life and love spending time with them. I’ve cared for my own pets for years, including raising and training my current dog, who is now four years old. I’m experienced with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications if applicable, and I always treat animals with love and respect. While most of my experience is personal, I bring a reliable and caring approach to every pet as if they were my own! I work from home four days a week, and I am usually local on weekends, so my schedule is flexible. I’m home throughout the day and can provide potty breaks when needed and playtime during lunch hour and in the evenings. My schedule makes it easy to pop by during lunch or evenings to check in, feed, and give some love and attention as needed. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I have a labrador retriever who gets along with other animals and a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play. I keep a close eye on all pets, maintain their usual routines, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I prefer to host pets who know basic commands and can respect my dog and home.

About: Hi! I’m Emily, a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner. I currently have three cats and one dog, and I’ve grown up with and owned both cats and dogs of all sizes — from tiny Chihuahuas to a challenging 200-pound dog. I’m very comfortable with different temperaments, energy levels, and personalities. I’ve done extensive training with my own dogs, so I understand the importance of safe walks, structure, consistency, and reading an animal’s body language. I’m also an avid hiker, so I’m happy to provide longer walks or more active outings for dogs who enjoy adventure and are safe around other dogs. I’ve also worked with and volunteered for two different animal shelters, which gave me experience caring for a wide range of animals and helped me become comfortable around pets with different needs, backgrounds, and behaviors. Whether your pet needs exercise, patience, playtime, cuddles, or just someone dependable to check in on them, I’ll treat them like one of my own. i currently work as a therapist 8am-245pm. but sometimes i have an open slot. but available for pet support 3 and after as well as on weekends. i have a runner for if a pet needs to be at my home, about an acre, i have a hiking trail 4min from my home. i have 1 dog and 3 cats all very friendly

We are very active and we love hikes in the state forest or long walks on the trails of Pinehills, Hedges Park, Plymouth Long Beach, and the canal. We live 2 houses down from Bloody Pond if your pup enjoys swimming!! We have a mellow 3 year old boxer named Polly. She is such a little love, more mellow than your typical 3 year old boxer, is great with all dogs, and can often be found sun bathing on our back patio. Although not completely fenced in, we have a tie out run and live on a dead end street. We both have very flexible schedules which makes for great availability.

Dogs are NEVER off leash without owner permission and our full trust in the pup.

About: Hello! I’m Ava, and I want to care for your animals with the same love I show for mine :). I’ve been walking and house sitting mainly dogs but I also have experience caring for cats of all demeanors! I have been an animal lover as far back as I can remember, and I love making animals feel the same happiness and joy they bring us. Rain or shine I’ll make sure to give your pet the best experience possible. I have two dogs myself, a 10 year old lab and a 15 y/o Pomeranian with arthritis, so I have experience with big dogs as well as elderly dogs and the extra gentle care they require. I adapt to all dogs demeanors, whether they love an energetic playmate or are needing extra gentle care, I’ll accommodate to what they need. I look forward to meeting your fur baby soon! Pet care has a big place in my heart, so I set aside a lot of time to do it :) Monday - Friday, 6am - 8pm. But if needed I can stretch the hours to make time for your animals! I am willing to take your pup to your favorite places to walk if you want them to have an extra scenic experience on a path in the woods or park. I drive a Subaru Outback with accommodations for taking large and small dogs. Whether in the house or on a leash I will provide your pet the best experience possible, and provide my own doggie bags for walks!
About: Hi! I'm Avery, your dog's new best friend! I am a junior in college pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Political Science, a South Shore and Boston native, and open to serving my community. I am very flexible and willing when it comes to helping you and your pets find quality care! I have seven years of experience dog sitting, experience with administering medication via pill and syringe, taking care of up to four dogs and two cats at a time for over two weeks, elder animal experience, and have been on Rover for a year and a half now. I took a break, but am happy to be back! Giving your pet the care that they deserve is my mission and many owners can attest to that. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, and fish which gave me years of experience in animal care. I am responsible, timely, and reliable. I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon! I am a college student with flexible hours, especially Friday through Monday. I have an internship and I waitress, but my hours at the restaurant can change. My internship is 9-5 Tuesday through Thursday, but I have a two hour lunch break so I can check in, feed, and spend time with your pets. As a homebody, I have no problem staying home with your dog or cat and I will provide you with frequent check ins. Pet care is easy for me because my longest shift waitressing will be 3:30-10:30. Creating a safe and trusting environment with pets and their owners is crucial! I think that pets are like your children and that they deserve the same love, attention, effort, and respect as people. It’s important to keep them well nourished, active, and be kind to them. Animals are our friends and communicate differently, so paying attention to their needs is key. I will treat your home and pet with nothing but respect.

“Nadya took excellent care of our 10 year-old Golden Retriever while we went to the Cape for a few days. She was great at communicating how our Sophie was doing and sent pictures of her looking relaxed. We would recommend Nadya to anyone who needs to bring their pet for an overnight stay.”
“The absolute best!!! Lucky was the lucky one to get such incredible care. Cannot say enough wonderful things. Will always book here first!! A+ care!!!! Highest recommendation!”
“If I could give more stars, I would! Shatane and her family are truly wonderful people. They treated Ziggy and me with respect and showed Ziggy love and attention every day during his 3-day stay this week. I would definitely recommend Shatane—excellent communication, with plenty of updates, pictures, and videos.”
“Sarah and her family were wonderful with our dog, Rory. It was clear he was getting lots of love and snuggles while we were away. Sarah provided pictures during our trip. We would gladly use Sarah again in the future!”
About: Graduated from UNH class 2014 with a Bachelors in Zoology. Proud to have over 20 years of animal care. 15 years of multi pet ownership . ---Raised and trained 8 dogs from puppy to adult. Spent 6 months volunteering at an animal shelter. Have completed Two separate 10 session dog training courses with a certified dog trainer. Have completed online Instructional courses on E-collar training and behavior modification. Have experience handling dogs with behavioral issues/quirks Have cared for pets of family and friends in addition to my own for over 15 years . My family and I currently have two dogs and a lizard, so pet care is part of our daily routine, 24/7 365. My own dogs are walked daily and stimulated through play and training. When we are home as a family, the dogs are out with us enjoying life. When we are out of the house, they are either crated or secured in a room with fresh water. Safety/Security and respecting the animals are my core values. While the animals in my home are cared for like family, they are taught to respect boundaries and work for affection. In my care, pets are leashed unless they are in a secure, fenced area. I take the time to understand each animal is an individual who has unique needs. I cater my approach to each animal based on their specific demeanor.
“Matthew & Jennifer were amazing hosts for our dog, Griffey. They provided numerous updates about his day. He came home happy and healthy. I can't recommend them highly enough.”
“Roxanne did a great job! She sent us super detailed updates on our dog which helped us feel comfortable and she was flexible and communicative. Her daughter was also a pro with our dog! We would definitely use her again”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better place for Frankie to be while we were away.A fenced in back yard where she could run and play with other dogs.The pictures they sent gave us a great feeling while we away and missing her.Our nephew just got a puppy and we told him we would highly recommend Ben and Sarah.”
“We had an excellent experience with Debra. Our 9 year old cockapoo had never been boarded outside of family, and I was a little apprehensive about leaving him with someone I didn’t know. After our first meeting, I knew that I had made the best choice for Wally and for me. Debra always takes the time for a meet and greet prior to drop off so that our boy had the opportunity to meet her and her dogs, who are all very well behaved and welcoming. You can tell that Debra loves working with dogs and takes her responsibility very seriously. She has a lovely large home and huge fenced in back yard that the dogs can access via a dog door. Debra had great communication and was flexible with drop off and pickup times. She kept me updated with some photos so that I could relax and enjoy my sons wedding. I couldn’t have been happier and highly recommend Debra as a knowledgeable and trustworthy dog care provider.”
“Kelsie and her young family are amazing. They took very good care of my maltipoo and sent pictures of her while we were away. They cuddled w her and made her part of their family! Would highly recommend them!!”
“Lora took great care of our dog while we were away. She sent us pictures and gave us frequent updates. It was great knowing our dog was happy and in good hands while we were away on vacation. Would definitely recommend Lora and will use her again in the future!”
“Stephanie does a wonderful job. My dog loves going to her house. - she sends pictures often with updates of Dakota playing ball, walking, beach, strolls and treats. I feel very confident, leaving my dog with Stephanie and have used her on several occasions..”
“Jeremy and Rui were great with my dog, Rita. Rita is just a year old and can be a handful, she has a ton of puppy energy. Leaving her isn’t easy, Jeremy and Rui sent pictures of her playing and set our minds at ease. She’s been welcomed back anytime! I would definitely recommend them!”
About: Had a 5 month old pup at aged 9 (also had a dominant cat) taught her basics and more over time until she needed medication due to her old age. Looked after friends senior dog which needed meds with food and their other dog that had special dietary needs including medication 3 times a day. House and dog&cat sat for friends that would go away to France for a long weekends I have plenty of time to give care and attention. I am not working at the moment and in between job maybe this is my calling we have a lot of space in the home and in the yard. We do not have any of our own pets yet, but we are talking a lot about them. We have a large 4ft fenced in grass yard and a large basement to allow for off leash freedom to play regardless of weather. Over the back fence we have active cranberry bogs with loads of open space and smells perfect for long walks. I am a fast walker and happy to cover 3-5 miles on a walk. Any fur-babies that need to stay overnight will be looked after like they are my own. I’ll send lots of pictures and make sure your pet is comfortable with as much attention as it needs.
“Anna responded quickly to my last minute request for doggie sitting. Anna was very friendly. I was a bit anxious about leaving my Vinny in a home with other pets but Anna reassured me that things would go smoothly and they did. Vinny made new friends and she was so kind to update me daily with photos of him and his new fur friends. I would 10/10 recommend Anna and co. to others and will be rebooking for future sits! Thanks Anna!”
