I have two friendly pugs that make a great social environment for your dogs. There are many gates/doors in the home that can be used to separate and make sure all dogs feel safe when needed.
“Mike and Kelly were outstanding! Just days before our scheduled boarding, our dog Duncan had to undergo emergency biopsies. Despite this, Mike and Kelly graciously took Duncan in, administered his medications, and ensured he was safe and happy.

Thank you Mike and Kelly for taking care of our Duncan!”

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.

Thank you so much for taking such good care of them that I didn’t have to worry at all for the whole trip!”

I understand their behaviors, moods, and unique personalities, and I’m comfortable with everything from feeding routines and litter box cleaning to playtime and giving them space when they need it. I’ve also cat sat for others, making sure their cats stay on schedule and feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. In addition, I work closely with cats at an animal shelter where I help clean enclosures, provide enrichment, monitor their behavior, and give them plenty of attention and socialization. I also work at a cat café, where I interact with a variety of cats every day and help ensure they are comfortable, happy, and well cared for in a busy environment. These experiences have made me patient, attentive, and confident in handling cats of all temperaments.
About: Been around animals my whole life, went to a college for vet tech for a short period, love caring for all types of animals, my cat would agree! I work from home so I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I’m around a majority of the day, but after 5 pm, I’m especially yours!

About: Hi! I am Lakshmi and I personally have 7yrs of experience with dogs of all kinds. Me and my husband both love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. We would love to take care of your pooch while you are away. We promise to provide brisk walks, fun playtime, and of course belly rubs and cuddling for your beloved dog. So that you can have a guilt free vacation of your own :) Our schedule is flexible and your dog will never be home alone for long. The couch and bed are never off-limits. We separate the dogs during feeding times and ** safety is out top priority**. So we make it a point to do a meet and greet for all the first time clients. We have a six-year-old Labrador retriever boy named "Bruno" whom we adore! He is neutered and is very friendly. We fully understand all the hard work, effort, and commitment which goes into raising our fur babies. I totally understand how much difficult it can be to be away from your pet. We will do our best to make your vacation stress free by giving regular updates on your pooch is doing. We both have our own full time jobs and I work from home. So, rest assured that your dog is never unattended for more than 2 hours except when we are at the gym or have some errands to run. We have a friendly dog of our own at home to keep your dog company 24/7. There is no fenced yard but we live in a beautiful community and we do long walks and park visits(when the weather permits).

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.

About: Tim and Maxine are a devoted couple who provide calm, attentive, home-based care for dogs. Maxine has had dogs since age 8, and they have always been an important part of her life. Together, they share a deep love for animals and extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of different temperaments and needs. Maxine also grew up in a household involved in wildlife rehabilitation, witnessing hands-on care for squirrels, birds, and other vulnerable animals. Animals have always been central to their lives. They are warm, gentle, and patient, and because they do not work outside the home, dogs receive consistent presence, supervision, and affection throughout the day. Dog care is naturally woven into our daily and weekly routine because we do not work outside the home. Being home allows us to structure our day around the cats’ needs rather than fitting care into limited free time. We are present throughout the day for feeding, walks, dog park visits, play, monitoring behavior, and providing comfort and attention. Because our schedule is flexible and home-based, we can respond quickly to changes in appetite, mood, or health, and maintain a calm, consistent environment that helps dogs feel safe and settled. We offer boarding exclusively in our home, providing dogs with a calm, safe, and structured environment. Because we are home full-time, dogs receive consistent supervision, walks, dog park outings, regular feeding, daily interaction, and close monitoring of behavior and comfort. We follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules and any special instructions.

About: As a current Animal Science major at UMass Amherst and a graduate of Norfolk County Agricultural High School’s Animal Science program, I have hands-on experience working with dogs in many different settings, including training, handling, daily care, and veterinary care. What sets me apart is both my professional knowledge and my genuine love for animals. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including energetic puppies and senior dogs who may need extra patience and attention. I understand animal behavior, how to prioritize safety, and I will always make sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved. Whether your dog needs a long walk or simply companionship and affection, I will treat them with the best care possible! I'm currently working part-time while home from college, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide your dog with the attention, care, and exercise they deserve. I am comfortable safely crating your dog if needed and always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. During walks, I stay alert and am aware of my surroundings, including nearby animals or potential hazards, to ensure your dog remains safe at all times.
About: Love both cats and dogs. Love both species..I am available from Nov. 15th thru May 1st in Florida and in MA from May 15th thru October 31st.. I have a very good repour with both cats and dogs. All my neighbors have animals, mostly dogs, and they all have taken to me. People that have animals need someone to care for their pets and love their pets just as much as the owners due and it's very important to find those special type of people and I think that I am one of those persons. Love them all and care for them like their human beings and sometime they are! My daily routine depends on what the animal requires of me. Walking is very important to a dog and they like to get out and smell their surroundings. I will take dogs out if needed by the clients during the day or whenever needed by them. Two to three times a day if needed
About: What sets me apart is my extensive background as a veterinary technician. I started in animal shelters and later worked in veterinary practices, caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. That experience gives me confidence handling everything from energetic puppies who need structure and reinforcement, to senior pets requiring medication, patience, and gentle care. I’ve fostered more animals than I can count, which has given me a strong understanding of behavior, transitions, and how to make pets feel safe and secure in new environments. Although I’ve recently changed careers and returned to school, I deeply miss being around animals. My own pets have crossed the rainbow bridge, and caring for others’ fur babies truly fills that space in my heart. Pet sitting isn’t just a side job for me — it’s something I genuinely love. I live in a loving, multi-generational home where pets truly become part of the family. There is almost always someone around, which means plenty of supervised attention, affection, and companionship throughout the day. Dogs staying with us receive lots of love, playtime, and, of course, belly rubs. They are never left feeling alone and are spoiled in the very best way — with structure, safety, and tons of positive interaction. My goal is to provide a warm, home-like environment where your pet feels comfortable, secure, and genuinely cared for. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I’m currently a full-time student, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to plan my days around the pets in my care. I’m available most days and evenings, and I’m happy to accommodate overnight stays, drop-ins, or daytime care. If you need something specific, just reach out — I’m always willing to see if we can make it work! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. While I do not have a fenced-in yard, I have a large yard for leashed walks and supervised outdoor time. We also have a wonderful, quiet area right on my street that’s perfect for longer, structured walks. With my background as a veterinary technician, I’m very comfortable monitoring behavior, recognizing signs of stress or illness, and administering medications if needed. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I follow your routines closely to keep them feeling secure and at ease. While you’re away, your pet won’t just be “watched” — they’ll be cared for, exercised, and loved like part of the family. I truly aim to give them a safe, happy experience that feels like their own little vacation.
About: With over a decade of hands-on experience caring for a wide range of pets, I bring both passion and professionalism to every pet sitting visit. I currently care for my 13-year-old Shih Tzu, a 10-year-old Maltese, and three beloved cats—so I’m well-versed in senior pet care, daily routines, and multi-pet households. I also have past experience owning larger and more demanding breeds, including Rottweilers, an English Bulldog, and a Black Russian Terrier, giving me a strong understanding of breed-specific behaviors and needs. From toy breeds to working dogs, kittens to senior cats, I tailor my care to fit each pet’s personality, health, and comfort level. Your pet will be in capable, caring hands. I’m flexible with timing and happy to work around my other commitments to find something that works for you. Whether you need daily visits, weekly check-ins, or help while you’re away, I’m here to make sure your pets are well cared for and comfortable. When I’m caring for your pet in your home, I treat it with the same respect and attention I would want for my own. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet and your space are in good hands. I make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and loved while sticking to their normal routines as much as possible. Whether it’s giving medications, keeping things tidy, or sending regular updates, I do everything I can to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
“Jay is amazing! This has been my first round with the dog walker. I am new to town in a very over sensitive helicopter dog, Mom. I cannot express enough how great the career has been for my dog Benji. Jay was more than willing to do a meet and greet with me prior to booking so that I could see if there was a good vibe. There was definitely a good vibe. Trusting and loving my dog in a situation where I can’t be at home is something that I strive for and I definitely found it in Jay! Highly recommended!”
About: I have been walking dogs at local shelters on a volunteer basis for several years. I have experience walking a variety of small and large breed dogs. My walks are 40 minutes long. I charge $25 per walk. My prices stay the same no matter what the breed or age. I would like to set up a meet and greet prior to any walks. Building a strong relationship is important. I am a retired veteran. I have plenty of time in retirement to walk dogs. I am available to walk dogs on Tues, Weds, Thurs, Sat and Sun. I do not offer boarding. I am out to serve the dog and the owners alike. I want both to be happy with my services. I am capable of feeding. I can walk multiple times in a day. I can administer meds as needed.
About: I have taken care of and have had my own pets for over 30 years. I have a fenced in backyard, along with trails in a wooded area on my property that make it a great adventure for all pets.

I would like to especially focus on families with friendly, small breeds that are looking for a safe place to shelter their pet. I have two friendly pugs that make a great social environment for your dogs. There are many gates/doors in the home that can be used to separate and make sure all dogs feel safe when needed.
About: I’ve always lived with dogs and have often been asked by neighbors or friends to take care of their pups! I have experience with giving medicine and would be happy to give any other care your pup may need! I’m currently attending high school and working part-time so I will be available on any free days after 2-3ish for check ins or walking but I’m free for boarding any day and will make sure they get plenty of play time and love! I live with my mother, she and I have two cats and a dog. Our dog, for the time being, has to be crated while we’re both away though our cats have free roam. For boarding it will depend on how well trained your pup is to determine if they can be out while unattended but of course the goal is to have as little crate time as possible! For check ins and walking I’ll treat your fur baby (or possibly non furry baby) as if they were my own, lots of playtime and scratches!

About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets, including looking after my neighbors’ animals while they were away and cat sitting for multiple families. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, cleaning litter boxes, giving lots of attention, and making sure pets feel safe and relaxed in their own space. I also volunteer at the Humane Society animal shelter, where I help care for cats and dogs by cleaning enclosures, providing enrichment, and making sure they receive plenty of love and attention. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each animal’s unique needs. I’m currently working part time and I’m a full time college student, but I always make time for furry friends 🐾 I’m available on weekends, in the evenings, and even early mornings if your pet is an early riser. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m more than happy to work with you to make sure your pets get all the love and care they deserve! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medication if needed, and playtime, because I know how important consistency is for animals. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and make sure everything stays clean and organized. I provide regular updates, photos, and check ins so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I spend quality time with each pet, whether that means going on walks, playing with their favorite toys, or just sitting with them for cuddles and companionship. If pets are in my home, I make sure the environment is calm, clean, and pet safe. They’ll have a cozy place to rest, plenty of attention, and lots of love. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel happy and cared for the entire time. 🐾
About: I’ve taken care of animals since before I can remember. Experienced in dog sitting, walking, calming down and grooming, with a wide range of dog types, and ages. I have a very bubbly personality, and I enjoy staying active. I’m currently working part-time one to two days a week so I have a very open schedule to take dogs on daily walks or sit when they need be. I’ve cared for pets in many different ways from walking to sitting to giving medication and providing comfort when anxious or scared. My dog in particular does not do well around loud noises so needs to be comforted during those times and cared for carefully.
About: I volunteer at my local animal shelter and I am great with both dogs and cats. I grew up with my cat, Hepsiba, born before me who died when I was nearly 20 years of age. We were best friends before I knew what that was. Then at the age of 12 or so, my parents adopted 2 English cocker spaniels, brother and sister. Robbie and Flora. So I was taking care of three pets. Then I raised Bruce, a rescued black lab mix from August 2013 until 2025 with some breaks for the US Army. And I taught him very well; he passed in June 2025 but he will always be my companion at my side. For some time I carried him, 120 lbs, up and down flights of stairs. Sometimes from here to there, carefully, comfortably, gingerly. I’ve taken care of pets for family members and friends. And did so professionally in the past prior to Rover, after friends got me into it. I’m great with animals. After spending even just a short time with them we can often establish a connection or rapport, especially when training a younger pet (or caring for an older dog). I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, I could run with your dog, play with them, but mostly we’ll be doing what they want - within reason. I will basically be spending the entire time with your pets. We’ll wake up between five to eight in the morning, and we’ll go bed between eight and eleven at night. I’ll be up with them as they need and we’ll be in and out much more than is required. I am delicate and meticulous and believe in leaving no trace that I was there. I want my client after their time away from home and their animals to not be met with the mess that I could be leaving behind. I am committed to performing an act of cleaning based on the tools available.
About: I have taken care of friends and family members dogs for years. Whether it be for a week or just a short walk, I’m always up for a jaunt with a friendly animal! Big or small, they all love walks and playing! I am currently looking for work with animals and have a flexible schedule. Would love to help out on a consistent basis! If checks ins, walks, play dates are needed, I'm your guy. I have my two cats at home and cannot currently take more animals in here for watching, but have a car to transport to the pets in need! I am a clean person, will tidy up after the animals and will follow whatever rules are put in place.
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.
“My dog got a cut on her ear walking in the woods, and Brittanie responded perfectly. She reached out to me, we discussed what to do, and she waited for my sister to arrive. Turned out to be very minor, but I was so grateful she was extra cautious and communicative. I feel really comfortable with her caring for my Millie.”
“I have never had a dog walker before and was a little nervous to have a random person from the internet in my home and taking care of my best fur friend. Sarah has been BEYOND amazing! She is SO friendly, a great communicator and sends cute pictures and videos to help me miss my little girl a little less while I’m at work! I truly trust her both with my dog and in my home. I could not recommend her enough!”
About: I grew up dog sitting for my neighbors, friends, and cousins as I've always had a known strong passion for animals my whole life. I currently have an older Chihuahua, so I understand how to be extremely gentle, patient, and attentive to comfort, slower movement, and health needs. I also have a young, very active Yorkie that I personally trained to do tricks like speak, play dead, and give paw, along with other basic obedience skills. This has given me experience with consistency, positive reinforcement, and keeping energetic dogs mentally stimulated. I’m comfortable balancing both calm, gentle care for senior pets and structured, engaging attention for younger, active dogs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already work part time at a doggy day care, so I’m around animals regularly and used to handling different personalities and energy levels. I’m available all day on Fridays, Saturdays, and Tuesdays, which gives me plenty of time to focus on pet sitting, walks, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I care for pets in a safe, calm, and structured environment. At my home, I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time and two friendly dogs that can provide company if your pet is comfortable around others. I also have a large, comfy crate available if a dog needs their own quiet space to relax or rest. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their own environment while maintaining their normal routine. I make sure they are safe, supervised, and given plenty of attention, including walks, playtime, feeding, and any specific care instructions provided. My goal is always to keep pets feeling secure, cared for, and stress-free whether they’re in my home or theirs.

“Thank you for being such a great host family for Jack.... Jack is a loving 5½ year old golden retriever that loves people. He doesn't visit other houses very often, & is rarely away from me. Although Jack was a bit nervous, going to a strange house with people he didn't know, this family made him feel at home. Phil went so far as to sleep on the couch in the same room as Jack. I will definitely use this family in the future & highly recommend them if your looking for a loving family for your pup.... Thank you again”
“Ciara is great. Oliver loves going to her house. He looks forward to all his friends, even the cats which is amazing! She sends me updates every day with a picture so I know he is doing good and to help me not miss him to much.”
“My pups Zeus and Dakota had an amazing time! Nadya was quick with responding to every update I asked for and any questions! Would highly recommend and will be dropping them off again for any future travels!”
“Mike and Kelly were outstanding! Just days before our scheduled boarding, our dog Duncan had to undergo emergency biopsies. Despite this, Mike and Kelly graciously took Duncan in, administered his medications, and ensured he was safe and happy. They kept us updated with photos and regular communication about Duncan’s health. I highly recommend their services—in fact, I already recommended them to a neighbor this afternoon! Thank you Mike and Kelly for taking care of our Duncan!”
“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.”
“Millie absolutely loved her time with Larisa and Daisy! Larisa made sure to keep me updated on their daily adventures and send lots of pictures. Millie took multiple trips to the beach and walks at the bogs. We are very happy with the service and support Millie received while staying the weekend 😊 We will definitely reach out again for any pet sitting needs!”

“Michele is amazing! She took such good care of our guy over the Christmas holiday while we traveled out of state. She even got him his own stocking ☺️ She was great with communication and sending updates / photos! Her home is welcoming and a perfect place for any dog! We look forward to using her again.”
“Having moved recently to New Bedford, we didn´t have any close friends or relatives to leave our Lhasa Apso Johann with. We are so glad we came accross Taylor and Tyler on the Rover platform. They responded to my first contact almost immediately and were very attentive in getting back to me so we could arrange our meet and greet. They took care of Johann for 5 nights and would send me pictures daily and keep me posted. Johann adapted very well and we could see he was being well taken care of and having a fun time! We are so happy and thankful we now have a place to leave him when we next have to travel without him!”
“Amazing visit for our pup! We have a 1 year old super energetic dog who can be a little shy but absolutely LOVED her time there! So many picture updates, took her on tons of walks and dog park trips, she cried when she had to come home!”
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.
“Jess and her family were great! Our 11 pound Cavapoo (Molly) stayed with Jess for 7 nights while our family went on our first vacation without our beloved pup. I knew Molly was well cared for and happy (perhaps a bit too happy given her ambivalence to seeing me when I picked her up 🙂). I felt very comfortable leaving Molly with Jess and would certainly do so again. Jess was very responsive and sent me regular updates and pictures. I think Molly particularly enjoyed the freedom Jess allows the dogs in the house. For example, I sent Molly with her crate that she happily sleeps in at our home, but with Jess Molly just slept on the couch with the other dogs. Spoiled for sure!”
