“I highly recommend Seonmin to anyone looking for a professional, communicative dog watcher. She watched my pup, Coconut, for 7 nights and was incredibly responsive to me and gave me daily updates. She is responsible and has a dog of her own you can tell she takes great care of. It also helps that her and her partner are at home full time to give your dog great love and care! I would highly recommend her.”

“Alysia’s service is top notch! Her family was so caring and treated my pup like family. Our pup came home content and he had so much fun. Great communication and updates. Thank you!!!”

“Shatane and her family were absolutely amazing with my two dogs. They sent great updates of how they were doing and amazing pictures and videos. Have both my dogs plenty of exercise outside in the backyard and treated them as if they were their own. It made a week of travel less stressful to know my two were taken care of so well. Highly recommend.”

“Nadya welcomed our 2 Aussies into their home like they were family. Our pups had the best time and I’d highly recommend booking Nadya for your fur baby sitting needs!”

“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!”

“Endy did a great job watching our dog while we were away. She kept us up to date each day with comments and pictures of our dog. Many of the pictures showed our dog engaged in play with Endy's children. When we picked up our dog, everything was ready for us to load into the car and then say our goodbyes. We would not hesitate to use Endy as a sitter in the future.”

“Larisa and her pups took such great care of our girl Georgia while we were away visiting family. Larisa sent videos, photos and updates each day we were gone to show us how well Georgia was being taken care of! Georgia got to go on beautiful walks around a bog, play in Larisa's yard and even got to lounge in multiple nap spots. Georgia got along so well with Daisy and Tess, Larisa's doggies, and I know they were an added benefit to her stay! We were so happy that Georgia was so happy and would absolutely seek out Larisa's care again!”

“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!!”
“We had a fantastic experience boarding our dog, Leo. From the initial meet-and-greet through pick up, everything was smooth, professional, and reassuring. Communication was excellent- we received regular updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Leo can sometimes take a little time to settle into new environments, but he looked completely comfortable and happy during his stay. It was clear he was getting plenty of attention, care and exercise. He came home relaxed and well cared for- which is always the best indicator.”

“Life got very chaotic very quickly with a family emergency, we were at odds what to do with Sara since she could not go with us. Luckily, Maghan and her family was able to take her, It was like leaving Sara with a trusted family member, the daily photos we were sent made the stress of having to leave her dissolve, I felt she was on vacation and extremely well taken care of.”

“Jeremy and Rui are life savers! We were able to book with them last minute and we couldn’t be more grateful. They watched our very energetic 8 month old Border Collie and she had the time of her life. We received daily picture updates which put our worries at ease. We will definitely be using them again in the future.”

“Stefanie and her family took our Bleu into their home this weekend and treated him like a member of their family. I really appreciated all the photo pupdates too.”


“Whitney was so understanding and flexible when a large snowstorm impacted travel extending my pet’s stay. Her wonderful care for my pup means so much and let me concentrate on getting home safely. Thank you!”

“Milo had a ball. Anna Carolina was very responsive, kind and caring. I also received daily photos or videos, which gave me a since of calm, knowing Milo was having fun and he was safe. I would definitely recommend Anna Carolina.”


“Stefanie was absolutely wonderful in taking care of our dog! She was so responsive in messaging and followed great instructions for giving medication, feeding, walks, etc. Stefanie provided great exercise for Finn and sent lots of pictures and updates during his stay! We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“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!”

“Need someone last minute. John responded promptly and was very communicative during his stay since it was his first time looking after my dog. Took him for a pee break and a little walk and gave him treats and my dog looked happy. Very pleased. Thanks!”


“Julia has a kind, gentle and fun way with animals. She has worked with a wide variety of animals. Prior to her initial visit, Julia was easy to communicate with regarding my wishes and concerns. During her visit with my 4 year old Portuguese Water Dog, she exceeded my expectations. She has a great attention to details. My dog was all smiles in the pics from her visit and seemed less needy than usual for my attention when I returned home from work that day. I have booked Julia for regular future visits and would highly recommend her to other pet parents!”
“Took our booking request so last minute (during the holidays no less) and did everything we asked and more. She came in to take care of our kitties while we weren't able to.”

“This was our first time using a service and Michele was fantastic ! My social butterfly kitty came out day 1 and the shy, reclusive sisters came out day 2 - for scritches and play ! Hasn't happened for family, so I think we've found a keeper !! She did a great job and kept us posted on activity. Thanks Michele !”

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.

“Rebecca super communicative and professional and it was clear our cats were well taken care of while we were away. We felt totally at ease knowing they were in such good hands ❤️”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and I’m well educated on them. I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare and do dog grooming now so I’ve learned lots of tips and tricks. I have my own dog named Finley who is a mini Australian shepherd. I would love to help attend and take care of your fur babies!! I’ve decided I want to switch my job and do something I love more which is to be with animals! I have lots of free time coming up and would love to spend it with more dogs! I have a big yard, and live on a bog which means lots of fun walks and adventures! My dog loves running and being outside playing fetch, and I would of course do any dogs favorite thing such as walks, swims, fetch, and more! My dog gets crated as needed, and of course if your fur baby is under my care then I will be going by your rules and how you prefer things for your dog.

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: Hello! My name is Andie and I work at VCA South Shore Hospital in ER, ICU, Neurology and Internal Medicine as a technician assistant and have prior TA experience at Old Derby Animal Hospital. I recently graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. I previously went to the University of Arizona for 3 years studying animal sciences and transferred my junior year to return to the East Coast. I also have some experience with a handful of farm animals from my time at the UofA. Additionally some of my experience comes from working on home farms taking care of horses and alpacas; all of this meaning my knowledge of animals is extensive to give the best care for your furry friends! I have always had the passion for animal care and medicine which is why after graduating I will be continuing my schooling to be a CVT and hopefully someday a veterinarian. A few years back I had participated in boarding through Rover, but after a hiatus I decided to come back to continue with walks and drop in visits because even outside of my main job I love to be around animals! We have a small family dog, but other than that I have rescue retired racing greyhound, Moose, who has travelled far and wide with me. My pets also include many fish, a leopard gecko, chickens and ducks! All this being said, I would absolutely love the opportunity to be alongside your best friends and scratch the itch to spend as much time with animals as I can! I am available Tues-Fri after 4:00 and free Sat, Sun and Mon! I am currently working full time at VCA Animal Hospital where I can do drop in visits before and after work depending on location, Sat, Sun and Mon can be anytime. I can also do any walks after 4:00 Tues-Fri and anytime on weekends. I take care of your pets like they are my own. I think every one has their own needs and personality, there is no "one size fits all" for any animal. I try to learn your pet on an individual level!
About: I started walking dogs as a first job when I was a kid! My family and I have always had dogs. Our most recent dog is an adopted mix, named Gogurt! I’m experienced caring for the pets of my family and friends. Looking forward to meeting your four legged friends! I am currently working PT, and have been with the same company for 30 years. I have flexibility on my off days, and can manage hours during the days/evenings. I am happy to meet your schedule needs when possible! At this time, I do not offer overnight services. In addition to walks and drop ins, I do home care during the day in clients’ homes.
“Diamante walks my 2 crazy dogs while my husband and I are working and she is awesome! The dogs love her and she keeps me updated on everything! Highly recommend, I feel so much better on days she comes over.”


About: I grew up with two German Shepherds, Duke and Thor. Eventually after Duke passed away we got Brie who was a "K9 drop out". My brother has a German Shepherd named Kai, my dad has a 3 legged chocolate lab, Bixby, and two cats, Socks and Olaf, that I frequently care for. I am familiar with small, medium, and large breeds. Dogs with behavioral issues, food aggression or dogs that require specific instructions. I am an early riser, I go to the gym and run before work. If you have a high energy dog, I am a good fit for you. I will make sure your pup is tired by the end of our visit. I will make sure your pet is safe by making sure there are no hazards and if we go for a walk I will keep your pet on a leash and protected against any threat. I have had many dogs off leash run up to myself and a clients dog and I always put myself in-between my clients dog and the others.

“Emily was wonderful with our Great Dane! She was prompt, kind and patient with her. She was very in tune with our pups needs during their walks, and was so mindful on the very hot days to take it slow or return for water when needed. Our pup is known to have some undesirable behavior on walks, and Emily came a few days early to meet her, learn her nuances and took notes so she was prepared to manage it. Looking forward to working with Emily again!”

“Phoebe had a great time with Kim! Kim was kind enough to send pictures and updates of their walk and left a nice note behind, too! Phoebe’s already looking forward to their next visit!”

“I highly recommend Seonmin to anyone looking for a professional, communicative dog watcher. She watched my pup, Coconut, for 7 nights and was incredibly responsive to me and gave me daily updates. She is responsible and has a dog of her own you can tell she takes great care of. It also helps that her and her partner are at home full time to give your dog great love and care! I would highly recommend her.”

“Alysia’s service is top notch! Her family was so caring and treated my pup like family. Our pup came home content and he had so much fun. Great communication and updates. Thank you!!!”

“Shatane and her family were absolutely amazing with my two dogs. They sent great updates of how they were doing and amazing pictures and videos. Have both my dogs plenty of exercise outside in the backyard and treated them as if they were their own. It made a week of travel less stressful to know my two were taken care of so well. Highly recommend.”

“Nadya welcomed our 2 Aussies into their home like they were family. Our pups had the best time and I’d highly recommend booking Nadya for your fur baby sitting needs!”

“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!”

“Larisa and her pups took such great care of our girl Georgia while we were away visiting family. Larisa sent videos, photos and updates each day we were gone to show us how well Georgia was being taken care of! Georgia got to go on beautiful walks around a bog, play in Larisa's yard and even got to lounge in multiple nap spots. Georgia got along so well with Daisy and Tess, Larisa's doggies, and I know they were an added benefit to her stay! We were so happy that Georgia was so happy and would absolutely seek out Larisa's care again!”

“We had a fantastic experience boarding our dog, Leo. From the initial meet-and-greet through pick up, everything was smooth, professional, and reassuring. Communication was excellent- we received regular updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Leo can sometimes take a little time to settle into new environments, but he looked completely comfortable and happy during his stay. It was clear he was getting plenty of attention, care and exercise. He came home relaxed and well cared for- which is always the best indicator.”

“Life got very chaotic very quickly with a family emergency, we were at odds what to do with Sara since she could not go with us. Luckily, Maghan and her family was able to take her, It was like leaving Sara with a trusted family member, the daily photos we were sent made the stress of having to leave her dissolve, I felt she was on vacation and extremely well taken care of.”

“Jeremy and Rui are life savers! We were able to book with them last minute and we couldn’t be more grateful. They watched our very energetic 8 month old Border Collie and she had the time of her life. We received daily picture updates which put our worries at ease. We will definitely be using them again in the future.”

“Milo had a ball. Anna Carolina was very responsive, kind and caring. I also received daily photos or videos, which gave me a since of calm, knowing Milo was having fun and he was safe. I would definitely recommend Anna Carolina.”


“Stefanie was absolutely wonderful in taking care of our dog! She was so responsive in messaging and followed great instructions for giving medication, feeding, walks, etc. Stefanie provided great exercise for Finn and sent lots of pictures and updates during his stay! We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Matthew and Jennifer take great care of my two Cavaliers! They get lots of walks and seem to enjoy their time staying with this family. Matthew and Jennifer are good communicators, detail oriented and really understand dogs. I love how they start each stay with a walk which makes for an easier transition when I drop off my dogs. Highly recommend!”

“Can’t say enough great things about Jess and her family, and the care they provided for our pup! Kona spent a little over a week with Jess and we are so happy with the care she received. We were sent frequent updates, and never worried about Kona. She had a ton of fun, and was tired from all the fun she had when we picked her up. We will definitely be booking with Jess again for our travel boarding needs!”

“Casey and Phil were wonderful boarding our dog Millie, giving great photos and updates and always making sure we were comfortable with everything going on at their house. They made sure she got along with the their dog and made sure she was well loved with plenty of attention. We had to last minute extend our trip and they were so gracious to accommodate the extra time. We will definitely be keeping them in mind for future trips!”


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.
“Michele recently took care of my 4 month old pup for a week during our family vacation. It was the best doggy daycare I've experienced in my thirty plus years of utilizing various pet facilities in this area. The correspondence, photos and videos she sent throughout the week were greatly appreciated and reassured me that my pup was in very capable hands. I am totally pleased with her services and will not hesitate to use her doggy care in the future. A++”
