“Heather was a great sitter for our dog Sasha. She was very accommodating for our drop off and pick up and felt completely comfortable leaving our dog with her for a long weekend. We would love to use Heather again in the future.”
“Megan was great! We came from out of town for an extended stay, and wanted to take a one day excursion without our dog Bentley. Even knowing it was likely to be a one-time dog-sitting opportunity - or at least very occasional - Megan was very responsive, arranged a meeting with her dog in advance, and when the day came, the two dogs and Megan all got along great! Bentley seemed happy to see us but reluctant to leave when we picked him up! And we got a lot of feedback and pictures during both days of his one-night stay. If the opportunity comes up again, we'll definitely turn to Megan again, too!”
“Wonderful experience with Alexandra taking care of our dog Hazel. She loved playing with their dogs and received regular updates on how she was doing. Highly recommend!”
“Emily was wonderful! Our labs had a blast staying with her for the weekend, and we felt completely comfortable leaving our girls in her care. You can tell she’s a true animal lover, and she treated them like her own. We can’t wait to book with Emily again!”
“My dog came back to me happy, well cared for, and very tired after all the fun he had at Brandon’s house! Brandon was extremely communicative, understanding of my dog’s behavioral and medical needs, and very flexible with my changing schedule. He sent plenty of pictures to help soothe my separation anxiety. I’ll definitely use Brandon again!”
“When we found out we were going to go out of town, Kyla and her family were the first ones we thought of to take care of Ethel. She seemed to remember her last stay there and felt comfortable fitting in immediately. Kyla and family treated Ethel like family. She sent daily updates and answered my questions about Ethel whenever I reached out right away. Definitely recommend and will use her again.”
About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and sizes—from a gentle giant Mastiff to smaller dogs with daily medication needs. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a long walk/ hike, playtime, cuddles, meds, or just a loving companion, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I’ll provide dependable care and keep you updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I’ll give your pet the same love, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I work part time caring for plants and helping with the on-site pets at my job. It’s a small company with a lot of flexibility so most of the time it’s easy to customize my schedule. If you need care in my home, I have a good set up with spaces that can be closed off if you have a shy pet who prefers quiet. As far as outside playtime for dogs, I have a good sized yard and live in a great neighborhood with sidewalks. I’m also able to go on hikes with your dog if that’s their thing. I’m comfortable coming to your home and keeping your pet’s routine as usual if that’s your preference.
“This family provided wonderful care of our two dogs. They were happy and well loved while our family was away! The also provided injections for our older pup, it was so nice to know they were happy and well cared for.”
“Julie and her wife were great. This was my first time using rover and they really made me feel comfortable with leaving my pup. They kept me very updated and took lots of pictures!”
“Kara was amazing! Our dog clearly enjoyed her time with Kara and her family, and was taken such good care of and loved on. We would absolutely ask for Kara to take care of our dog again.”
“My Dog Bella means the world to me. After booking with Lindsay, I have nothing but positive reviews for Bella’s stay. Her house, environment was clean. Lindsay was warm, professional and I could tell without a doubt that Bella would be safe and happy. In the future, I will use noone but Lindsay!! Five stars with ease!!!!”
About: Hi! I'm a dependable, caring animal lover who enjoys spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a drop-in visit, or loving care while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, energy level, and any special needs. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for you and your dog. I'm recently retired and love to stay active. My family and I recently lost our dog after 12 years and are looking to fill the void she left.

I am new to in-home pet care but have had pets my entire life. I am very reliable and a strong believer in communication and timeliness. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet and greet! I am recently retired and am looking to fill a void in my life since the passing of my dog Pepper. I look forward to getting to know you and your dog(s) and will give them the same love and care that I've given to all of my past pets. I have a large fenced yard as well as well as a handful of hiking trails near my home. I look forward to making your dog feel comfortable with me and my family.
“Kevin has been an amazing dog sitter for my pup, Damai, over the past couple of years. Damai always feels comfortable and happy staying with her, which gives me so much peace of mind whenever I’m out of town. Kevin is incredibly responsible, attentive, and truly cares about the dogs she watches. Her dog, Dofus, is also very friendly and welcoming, and Damai absolutely loves spending time there. Kevin’s place has become Damai’s go-to home away from home. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience with Peggy! She responded to our request right away, was very communicative, and really showed that she wanted to make sure everything went smoothly with Lexi. Lexi loved her stay and Peggy even sent photos throughout the day. Highly recommend her!”
“Gus was very happy with Annmarie. She was a great communicator, sent plenty of photos and updates during his stay. Would 10/10 recommend and stay with her again! Thanks Annmarie for taking such good care of Gus!”
“We left our dog with Lyndsey and Evan while we were on vacation, and he had a vacation of his own! He had long walks every day and lots of playtime with their dog. We got photo updates every day. We don't feel guilty leaving him because we know he is well taken care of.”
“We had an amazing experience with our Laura ! This was the first time we had ever left our dog, with someone else, and he was understandably very anxious. She went above and beyond to make him feel calm, safe, and comfortable throughout his stay. She paid close attention to his food habits, followed his regular sleeping schedule, and genuinely cared about making the transition as stress-free as possible for him. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. She is kind, patient, and truly loves animals. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Cookie!”
“Natasha was an excellent caregiver to our dog Lola for 12 days. She kept us up to date on how are girl was doing with daily photos and videos. It put us at peace to know she was well taken care of. I would highly recommend Natasha to watch your pet!”

“USophia was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our dog while we were away for the weekend and truly went above and beyond. We had her scheduled for three drop-in visits each day, and she was always on time and often stayed even longer than expected to spend extra time with our dog, which meant so much to us. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire weekend. She sent us lots of photos and updates at every visit, so we were able to see how our dog was doing and felt completely at ease while we were away. Sophia was incredibly kind, attentive, reliable, and clearly genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Sophia with our dog again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring. We will definitely be booking with her again! ❤️”
“Cheryl took great care of my two cats while I was on a two week vacation. She handled food, water, treats, litter, and play just right. From the meet and greet, I could tell she has a sweet and gentle touch and really understands how to relate to cats. Her thorough updates including photos kept me confident that they were in good hands.”
“Jennifer was great. From our very first meet and greet at our home, our cat felt very comfortable with Jen. She uses the app every visit to check in and sends photos daily as we requested. We would highly recommend her and will work with her again in the future.”

“Isabell is the BEST!! One of our cats ended up locked in a spare bedroom and Isabell followed her meows and let her out. And then she sent us a video explaining everything. Would 100% have her back.”
About: Hi, my wife Ali and I have been taking care of and walking dogs for years. We have 3 small dogs and 2 small parrots of our own. We live in a house with our own private fenced in dog park in the back. My wife is always home as she works from home and I work overnight so your pet will never be alone. We love to care for all dogs or other animals! We have 2 young children so your dog must be good around kids as well. If you have any questions please message me. Unfortunately at the time we are not accepting any large breeds (dogs that stand really tall on 4 legs) unless they are a small puppy and are 35-40lbs or less. We also do not take dogs that mark all over the house, one accident is expected when nervous in a new environment and we understand. We do charge extra $20 if you run out of food or we need to feed your dog our own food because dog food is costly these days. We also will charge a $200 cleaning fee for dogs who do mark all over the house because as stated we do not take dogs that do this. We are am extremely flexible with pet schedules, as of right now we bring our own dogs out every 3-4 hours for potty breaks and playtime outdoors. We visit a local dog park and we also have a yard. We have our own yard and we will be outside with your dog on leash, never left unsupervised, safety for everyone is important to us. We will always be very transparent with you.
About: I am CPR and animal care certified. I have also been a volunteer with many rescues over the past 10 years. In rescue, I specialize in socializing kittens and cats but have also taken on seniors with medical disabilities. I have trained puppies on basic commands. I have multiple years experience giving medications to dogs and cats. I am available for drop ins, walking, pack walks / hikes from 1pm to 10pm Monday through Friday and am available for all your pets needs on the weekends. Ideally I am available to walk your pup, let them out, feed them and take the on a nice hike if weather permits. Ideally for cats, I can feed them, clean the litter box, administer medication and socialize with them. However, I am open to boarding dogs as well if your dog is dog, cat and kid friendly. Please reach out to discuss. I have a fully fenced in yard if your dog is residing in my home. I will care for your pet as if they are my own and for me, my pets are my kids. I will provide safe, comforting, attentive care for your pet and respect your space when in your home. I will maintain a clean environment in your home and in mine. For basic walks or drop in visits, I will leave the home how I found it or better.
“Jill took care of our cats during a long weekend, making sure one of them got their meds everyday. She was reliable and completed reports with photos to make sure we knew they were being well taken care of. We would book with her again!”
About: I had two cats of my own, Sammy and Nixon, both of whom lived to almost 20. One was social and outgoing, the other needed time and patience before he’d come around. That experience taught me a lot about reading cat personalities and meeting them where they are. I know some cats want attention the moment you walk in, and others need you to earn it. I’m comfortable with both and happy to care for your cat in your home or mine.

“Fantastic experience with Megan. Felt completely comfortable leaving Teddy in her care. Lots of communication and sweet pictures throughout the stay. Teddy was happy and relaxed when we picked him up. 100% recommend!”
“Christopher, Ali, their kids, and their pups were great. They kept me updated throughout the day. They shared videos, photos, and updates throughout my puppy’s stay. I was super nervous but they made the experience great.”
“Emily was very pleasant to interact with. She has a nice inviting home with a big well groomed yard. Our Chi - Mix Mookie loved running around in the yard. Emily treated Mook like one of her own. Allowing him to watch over the yard for her like Chihuahuas love to do. We will definitely reach out to her again when we're traveling in the area.”
“Andrew is great and very responsive. Whiskey had a good time and he’s surely been in great hands. Would definitely ask Andrew to watch Whiskey again! Thank you Andrew for taking care!!”
About: I’ve had the privilege of being a dog owner since the age of 13. Dogs are a part of my life and are so healing to the soul. I’ve had years of experience in loving and taking care of these fur babies. I do well with following instructions, being respectful, and creating a safe space & home for your pups. I would consider myself to be a great and responsible dog mom, sitter, and would love and take care of your dog like my own. I’m a stay at home mom and have the time to take care and play with your pups. I have space in my backyard for playtime and potty time and live in a beautiful neighborhood to go on walks for fresh air and exercise. My family spends a lot of time outside and so will your pup (weather permitting of course). I’m available during weekdays and weekends. My services include boarding and doggy day care. I have a backyard and beautiful deck to get plenty of playtime and sunshine. I also live right across the street from a large park that we can take trips to. I have a small and friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I will keep your dog on a leash while outside and/or can close off the deck for a more secure area.
“Our sweet deaf pup stayed with Annmarie for the day and she couldn't have been safer and happier. This was our first Rover experience, so there was a bit of anxiety dropping our puppy off at a stranger's house. However, Annmarie made us feel welcome through her ongoing communication before, during, and after the visit, and I felt a sense of relief knowing that our special needs dog was well cared for. I highly recommend this host for your doggy day care needs.”
“Winston usually barks at new people he meets, but barely barked when he first met Misael and then was obviously very comfortable with him quickly. I received several photos and updates on what they were doing and Winston was exhausted and happy when we picked him up. Planning on booking another stay in the future!”
“Brandon and his wife took amazing care of my cavapoo, Sunny! She loved playing in their big fenced in backyard, and hanging out with their dogs Waffles and Pickles 😊 He sent me many pictures of her which gave me peace of mind. I’d recommend Brandon to anyone and I will absolutely be using him for pet care again in the future. Thank you so much Brandon!”
“Lyndsey and Evan were amazing! We got multiple photo update throughout the day. They even took Oscar for a 3 mile walk, and their dog Rosie kept him entertained all day long.”
About: I grew up around dogs and cats ,and currently have four of my own! For the past three years, I have been a primary dog sitter for multiple families with animals, ranging in age and needs.

“Angelisa is very nice and diligent. She takes good care of my Labrador puppy. He is always very happy and when I pick him up. She handles him well and her kids seem to be very sweet with him. Will definitely use again.”
“Shelley was wonderful in caring for our dog. We met with her on a "meet and greet" and then she cared for him for a day. She listened to and respected our issues, and he clearly really enjoyed his time with her. We will use her again.”
“Enid was great! Sent me lots of pics and kept me updated and made me feel comfortable! She has a fenced in backyard and Kuna came back happy and healthy! She was very accommodating when I got stuck in traffic on the way back and I really appreciated that!!”

“Kiley did a fantastic job with both of our dogs, even on her first visit. She arrived on time and quickly bonded with them. They had a long, enjoyable walk and returned home happy and well-exercised. When they encountered a neighbor's dog, Kiley wisely picked up our little one to prevent any potential issues. We highly recommend her!”

I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a long walk/ hike, playtime, cuddles, meds, or just a loving companion, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I’ll provide dependable care and keep you updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I’ll give your pet the same love, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I work part time caring for plants and helping with the on-site pets at my job. It’s a small company with a lot of flexibility so most of the time it’s easy to customize my schedule. If you need care in my home, I have a good set up with spaces that can be closed off if you have a shy pet who prefers quiet. As far as outside playtime for dogs, I have a good sized yard and live in a great neighborhood with sidewalks. I’m also able to go on hikes with your dog if that’s their thing.

“Cassandra is great! She is very reliable and has built a fantastic relationship with Maizy in a short amount of time (just a few walks). Maizy excitedly awaits her arrival every morning and goes nuts when she sees Cassandra's vehicle pull up.”
“I highly recommend Steph, she has been wonderful with my two pups - one is a grumpy bulldog and the other is a crazy black lab, so I know she can handle double dogs of different speeds which is great! She’s also really sweet with the dogs, super friendly and easy to talk to, and very flexible with bookings.”
About: Having grown up with over 15 different breeds of animals, pet care is truly second nature to me. This background has given me a deep understanding of animal behaviors, needs, and personalities. From energetic pups to more reserved or independent pets, I’m able to connect with each animal and adapt to what makes them feel comfortable and secure. Animals have been an integral part of my life, and my care approach reflects a lifelong passion and respect for them. With me, your pet receives the kind of attentive, personalized care only a true animal lover can provide! Working remotely gives me the flexibility to provide dedicated, consistent care for your pet throughout the day. I’m able to check in frequently, give them attention when they need it, and keep their routines as close to normal as possible. Whether it’s scheduled feedings, playtime, or just being there for companionship, my work setup allows me to be fully present for your pet’s needs and maintain a calm, reliable environment for them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their usual environment and routines to reduce stress. I take great care to follow your instructions closely, ensuring your pet feels secure, happy, and comfortable in familiar surroundings. Whether in my home or yours, I approach pet care with dedication, responsibility, and the commitment to making each pet feel safe and loved.
“She is the best! I love that I could relax knowing Talia was loving on my Hank! She was so thorough with communication and kept my heart warm a out my dog kid! Will be using her again!! Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve been walking my family’s dogs for almost a decade now - a high energy Brittany spaniel as well as a husky/shepherd mix. 7 years ago I adopted Layla, a pittie/german shepherd mix who I’ve trained extensively and take on daily adventures. Then, a year ago I adopted Dixon (a German shepherd/Australian cattle dog mix) and he’s been reactive to humans and dogs alike. I’ve had extensive training in classes with him alongside professionals. I’ve taken that experience and can apply many basic training concepts to dogs of all sizes/ages. I’m currently off of work for the summer and have total flexibility to look after/walk your pups! When I am working during the school year, I have afternoons available to walk your dogs during the work week. I have a wide variety of trails/walking spots I frequent in the local area, so your pup will always be enriched & happy! I always carry some kind of dog deterrent (PetSafe SprayShield or Pet Corrector) in case of emergency, and always engage in positive reinforcement training throughout walks. This looks like rewarding the dog(s) with treats when they check in with me, stay in a heel, or keep loose tension on the leash.
“Jennifer was great! Sent tons of photos and even left us flowers! She took our 5 months old puppy out and then spent some time with him in our home before leaving. Max was a very happy boy when we came home from work!”
“Keri was great with our two dogs. She was very responsive and followed all my instructions. The dogs loved her. She sent me live updates and photos which were great! I’ll definitely use her again in the future.”

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since I was a little girl, whether they were my own pets or the pets of neighbors, friends, or the dogs at my daycare job. People know they can rely on me especially when it comes to their pets, because I know that to most people, their dog or cat is seen as an important member of the family and they should be treated as such. I am very capable of this as well as seeing to your animal’s needs, including but not limited to: playing, exercising, grooming, bathing, feeding, training, and petting. At the moment, I am working at a doggy daycare and learning to train dogs. I have available on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays but I will become more available soon. I will play with your pet and create a safe way for them to play. I will make sure your pet is healthy, happy, and safe. I will respect your property and privacy and make sure I follow your instructions to the T.

About: I have loved dogs and animals in general for my entire life. Right now, I work at Buddy's Doggie Daycare in Norfolk MA, and I love it, but I am looking for more one on one experience with a dog. At Buddy's my job is to watch the dogs and interact with them. Another part of my job is to protect the dogs in case of a fight breaking out. I have learned to think and act quick in those kinds of situations. When something like that happens, you step in quickly and it was scary at first, but I love and care about the dogs so much it doesn't matter to me if I get a little hurt, as long as the dogs are okay, I am happy. At Buddy's there are dogs of all ages and sizes, so I am used to being around them. Growing up I was known for my love of animals. My Aunt has a dog and whenever they go on a trip they ask me to dog sit her. I love walking her and taking care of her. I was never able to have a dog growing up because my dad and sister are allergic. I want to give every dog I can the love they deserve. Before I worked at Buddy's I worked at Pet Supplies Plus in Franklin MA. There I learned some basic needs of dogs and how to take care of them in an at home setting. I worked there for 2 years until I moved on to Buddy's, Currently I am working full time, but I am working on clearing my schedule, so I have plenty of time to work and care for your dogs!! I don't go to school or have any other obligations other than my current job. Depending on what your dog and home is like, I will make sure they have a great and safe time with me. If there is no fenced in yard we can play inside or go for a nice walk. And if your pup is older and needs more down time we can go for drives and get him/her a little treat. No matter what the setting is, I will make sure your dog is safe and happy as can be!
About: I have experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. My background includes dog sitting and dog walking, working as a daycare attendant, assisting with training, and providing care in a canine rehabilitation setting. I’m comfortable handling a wide variety of personalities and needs, from energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring extra attention and care. 🐾 I am available Monday through Friday, with weekend availability upon request. My schedule is flexible, and I am happy to work with pet owners to find times that best fit their needs. I care for pets as if they were my own. I follow their normal routine, provide food and water, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, happy, and safe while you’re away.
About: Growing up in wild and wonderful West Virginia, I worked on a family farm and took care of friend’s and family’s pets. So it was natural that I developed an affection for animals. I fell in love with my own dog, a Labrador Retriever, at 16 and named him Bucks! I’ve taken care of many different types of animals besides cats and dogs, such as Guinea pigs, chickens, iguanas, sugar gliders and more! In recent years, I was employed in a dog boarding and training facility called ‘The Happy Retriever.’ Then I was able to gain more pet care experience working for another pet sitting business named ‘Heart and Paws Pet Sitting.’ I am presently a proud member of Pet Sitters International, thru which I have completed Pet First Aid & CPR training and have ongoing education in pet care! Sunday - Saturday I’m a proud business owner and a full time pet sitter! I love all the furry friends I get to make in all sizes and continue my pet behavior and wellness education so I can provide the best care possible! I keep my visits with your pets as close to their usual routine as possible and I treat them as you would! Sometimes a different route for a walk is a good thing and builds confidence in your pet! It all depends on your pet’s needs and everyone’s comfort! I would like to see your pet be healthy and self confident! I have pet sitting insurance as well! Scheduling meet and greets before any services is the best way we can go over the routine and build trust with you and your pet!
About: *I am currently taking a break from accepting new clients at this time and will not be monitoring my Rover app on a regular basis. Thank you for your understanding.* Hello!! I am Kelsey and I have being taking care of dogs and cats regularly for over 6 years now. (The dream job) I have also been around and cared for my own pets: cats, dogs, and even guinea pigs since I can remember. I am someone who will treat your pet with the same level of love, kindness, and understanding that I would with my own! I’m here to lovingly care for your pets. While always making sure their safety is high priority. I currently am lucky enough to have a sweet 4 year old female husky named Piper. She is an absolutely joy❤️ I want to note Piper does not come with me on pet sitting bookings. My roommate is able to watch her while I’m away. My neighbors and family members have always relied on me when going on vacation to take care of their pets overnight for extended periods of time. I would always be the first to volunteer! I have been responsible for the care of both cats and dogs. Also, I have experiencing caring for a variety of different size dogs: from a 100 pound gentle giant Saint Bernard to a 6 pound sweet munchkin Chihuahua. I do have experience taking care of reactive dogs, as well as walking reactive dogs in public places. (I have a lot of compassion for the misunderstood pups 🥰). I try to make sure to keep them safe, and at ease. Also I make sure to learn as much about your pet(s) to try and give I also have experience taking care of elderly dogs and cats. Alongside this, I have administered oral medication, at the pet parents' request and instruction, to dogs before. Keeping your pet happy with love and praise, and always safe is my priority. Your fur babies will get lots of cuddles and play time, as I am a pride myself on being an affectionate and gentle pet caretaker. Thank you for considering to entrust me with the care of your fur baby. ❤️ As a pet owner myself, I truly understand the importance of having peace of mind that your pet is in good hands. I sincerely look forward to meeting you both! 🐾 I currently work full- time at a nonprofit organization. I do primarily work from home and I am able to be very flexible with care during the ‘work day’ and flex my hours during the week. Which really does allow me ample opportunities to be available and fit in pet care during throughout day. Also this gives me the flexibility to work from your home if you are comfortable with that, so I can extend my care time with your four legged friend as much as possible! I am very easy going and willing to try and be flexible with my schedule. Typically Monday-Friday I am available consistently after 4pm or before 10am for drop ins and dog walks. I also have flexibility during the ‘work’ day hours for multiple drop ins and walks or good old fashion cuddle time with your fur babies. If you are comfortable with this, I’d be happy to work remotely from your home so I can extend my stay with your pets for as long as possible. I am also available for house sitting and pet care overnight. I can be quite flexible with dates for overnights. I have experience watching pets over the course of multiple weeks at a time. So if you’re headed out on a long vacation, I have experience with pet care of an extended period. On the weekends, Saturday through Sunday, I have a lot of open time/ flexibility and open hours to be available to take care of your pet(s)! I try my best to keep my calendar up to date, however if you see a day marked unavailable that you are looking for help on, please still feel free to message me. I’ll make it work with your schedule! ☺️ Trust and safety may be the two most important aspects of pet care. To ensure this with those I work with, I make sure, before any pet care job especially if they are a new client, to ask the important questions. Examples being, to ask if there are any medical conditions I should be aware, dietary restrictions, exercise preferences, and the list can go on. So I can understand how best to take care of your pet and meet their needs. Also to build trust with you as the owner, so you can have peace of mind that your fur baby is in good hands. I prioritize the wishes of the owner for how they want their pet cared for. I have a secure, fenced in backyard at home if you would want me to care your fur baby in my home. Also while working in client's homes I make sure to not only of course take care of your pet, but to also take care and respect your home. Typically I make sure, specifically dogs, get out to play and go for walks, while also making sure to give lots of cuddles and positive encouragement. My goal is to make sure your pet gets the loving care, consistent attention, and safe environment they need!

“Heather was a great sitter for our dog Sasha. She was very accommodating for our drop off and pick up and felt completely comfortable leaving our dog with her for a long weekend. We would love to use Heather again in the future.”
“Wonderful experience with Alexandra taking care of our dog Hazel. She loved playing with their dogs and received regular updates on how she was doing. Highly recommend!”
“Emily was wonderful! Our labs had a blast staying with her for the weekend, and we felt completely comfortable leaving our girls in her care. You can tell she’s a true animal lover, and she treated them like her own. We can’t wait to book with Emily again!”
“My dog came back to me happy, well cared for, and very tired after all the fun he had at Brandon’s house! Brandon was extremely communicative, understanding of my dog’s behavioral and medical needs, and very flexible with my changing schedule. He sent plenty of pictures to help soothe my separation anxiety. I’ll definitely use Brandon again!”
“When we found out we were going to go out of town, Kyla and her family were the first ones we thought of to take care of Ethel. She seemed to remember her last stay there and felt comfortable fitting in immediately. Kyla and family treated Ethel like family. She sent daily updates and answered my questions about Ethel whenever I reached out right away. Definitely recommend and will use her again.”
About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and sizes—from a gentle giant Mastiff to smaller dogs with daily medication needs. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a long walk/ hike, playtime, cuddles, meds, or just a loving companion, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I’ll provide dependable care and keep you updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I’ll give your pet the same love, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I work part time caring for plants and helping with the on-site pets at my job. It’s a small company with a lot of flexibility so most of the time it’s easy to customize my schedule. If you need care in my home, I have a good set up with spaces that can be closed off if you have a shy pet who prefers quiet. As far as outside playtime for dogs, I have a good sized yard and live in a great neighborhood with sidewalks. I’m also able to go on hikes with your dog if that’s their thing. I’m comfortable coming to your home and keeping your pet’s routine as usual if that’s your preference.

Lindsay was warm, professional and I could tell without a doubt that Bella would be safe and happy. In the future, I will use noone but Lindsay!! Five stars with ease!!!!”

Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a drop-in visit, or loving care while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

“Kevin has been an amazing dog sitter for my pup, Damai, over the past couple of years. Damai always feels comfortable and happy staying with her, which gives me so much peace of mind whenever I’m out of town. Kevin is incredibly responsible, attentive, and truly cares about the dogs she watches. Her dog, Dofus, is also very friendly and welcoming, and Damai absolutely loves spending time there. Kevin’s place has become Damai’s go-to home away from home. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience with Peggy! She responded to our request right away, was very communicative, and really showed that she wanted to make sure everything went smoothly with Lexi. Lexi loved her stay and Peggy even sent photos throughout the day. Highly recommend her!”
“Gus was very happy with Annmarie. She was a great communicator, sent plenty of photos and updates during his stay. Would 10/10 recommend and stay with her again! Thanks Annmarie for taking such good care of Gus!”
“We left our dog with Lyndsey and Evan while we were on vacation, and he had a vacation of his own! He had long walks every day and lots of playtime with their dog. We got photo updates every day. We don't feel guilty leaving him because we know he is well taken care of.”
“We had an amazing experience with our Laura ! This was the first time we had ever left our dog, with someone else, and he was understandably very anxious. She went above and beyond to make him feel calm, safe, and comfortable throughout his stay. She paid close attention to his food habits, followed his regular sleeping schedule, and genuinely cared about making the transition as stress-free as possible for him. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. She is kind, patient, and truly loves animals. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Cookie!”
“Jenna and Michael took great care of Rosie and she had a blast playing with Chase. We loved and appreciated the updates and videos. We would definitely reach out to them for Rosie again if we’re ever in the area. Highly recommend!”
“Denise went above and beyond caring for my pup! He’s getting older and recently had back surgery (IVDD), and she was incredibly thoughtful — even buying a stroller so he could still enjoy walks. She also laid out blankets all around her home to prevent him from slipping and falling. I’m so grateful for the love and attention she gave him and will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you for everything, Denise!”
“Lora was so great with taking care of our two boxer fur kids while we were away for several days. The pups were immediately welcomed in and felt right at home as soon as they entered her home. The boxers are high energy and she knew exactly how to care for them as a prior boxer owner. She treated them just like they were her own and were part of her family during their stay. They enjoyed being able to go in her fenced in yard for plenty of outside time and were spoiled with love and attention during their visit. Lora also stayed in touch by providing pictures and updates on how their visit was going. They can't wait to return back!”
“Kira is amazing. Our dog always come back well cared, healthy, and happy. She is also great about providing updates and pictures on a daily basis. Our puppy loves Kira and being dropped off to play with other dogs under her care.”
