“Jennifer and her family were so wonderful. They provided a lovely and safe home for Walter while we were on vacation. Her dog Molly even taught our dog good manners. Highly recommended!!!”

“Our minidoodle Sam had a great stay with Charlotte and Jordan, and their dog Kyber. Two things we especially like: They generally just take one dog at a time (more attention, and Sam loves attention!), and they live near some great walking trails. Very nice people.”

“I boarded my dog Maggie at Paul & Megan's home. They were very attentive to her needs and gave timely updates during her stay. Maggie seemed to enjoy her time there and she was well taken care of. I would highly recommend them as a sitter!”

“Every time we book with Ariane we know our dogs are safe a well taken care of, and we can enjoy our vacations without worry! Our dogs have a great time in her space, with her family and her two lovely dogs. I highly recommend her services and will continue to book with her going forward.”

“Penny loved staying with Monica! She was safe and well taken care of! We received pictures everyday and she helped her settle in so we didn’t have to worry while we were away. Definitely will use her again! Thank you Monica!!”

“Rita was very accommodating, sent us updates and pictures, and provided a calm environment for our anxious dog. I would not hesitate to have our dog stay with her again. Thank you Rita!”

“Xinyue and Weihai were most accommodating and responsive during a last minute stay. Indy had a great time and I felt most assured of his care while I was away. Highly recommend!”


“Wendy is wonderful!!! She is so very kind, warm and caring. We had booked a 25 day stay for our dog with her and she kept us updated daily with emails and photos. Our dog loved her and we loved he. We will definitely book our dog for future stays with her when we travel.”

“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Stacey! From the moment we met, it was clear how caring and attentive she is with animals. Our Cody and Leo absolutely adored her. While we were away, Stacey kept us updated with photos and messages which gave us peace of mind. She went above and beyond-not only making sure Cody and Leo were fed and loved, but also taking the time to play ball and cuddle which is their favorite thing to do. When we got home, Cody and Leo were so happy and clearly well taken care for. It’s such a relief to have someone so trustworthy and dependable-we couldn’t ask for a better sitter. We highly recommend Stacey to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like family. Thank you so much Stacey!”

“Our yellow lab seemed to enjoy the company and care at Lindsay's house. He moved right in to share her dog's bed and apparently made himself right at home. The photos that Lindsay sent us showed him relaxing during his "camp" weekend at her house. This was our first time using Lindsay's services and it was a great success!”


“Maria was amazing. She was so thoughtful and kind to me and Theo. She sent daily photos and took extra care of Theo when he felt anxious about the fireworks. She hand fed him until he felt comfortable. Although I do think he loved all the attention she gave to him. She really spoiled him and I think he is missing her and Gracie. Definitely will be using Maria as often as possible.”

“Jessica was awesome. She sent me so many pics of Otto while we were away and helped put my mind at ease. I hate leaving him, but she made me feel so comfortable and took such wonderful care of him I will absolutely use her again!”

“Michael was very communicative the whole time, and our Caju had a great time at his house! He was well taken care of and came back happy and tired :) I’ll definitely do it again when needed!”

It was clear our pet was well cared for and comfortable at home. We’ll happily book her again!”

“Carly is literally the best! Our kitty isn't super fond of strangers and Carly puts in extra effort to make him feel loved. She is super reliable, responsive, trustworthy and her love for animals really shows.”


“Rosemary was amazing! Firstly she was very in tune with our cat to both get to know him a bit and adjust play or hanging out accordingly. Additionally she went above in beyond in helping with mail or visitors while we were away. Rosemary also has great communication and flexibility and was able to both keep us in the loop, with not just watching our cat, but also arranging visits and keeping us informed of how our cat and house was doing. We're happy our cat found a new friend and definitely recommend Rosemary!”

“Thanks for taking care of the pets. They had an amazing time with Rylee. We had a little bit of hiccup with ant getting into food situation as well as automatic food bowl breaking in the middle of the trip but Rylee was very kind to get us ant traps and clean the food up for the cats. Lots of great communication and amazing pictures. The pets were in a great hands.”

“This was our second time having Candi watch our cat on short notice and we have to say she's great. If you are in the area she's based out of we'd highly recommend her. Since we are fairly new to this service im not sure if you can direct message us, but if you can and have any questions please feel free to. Riley and Rich”

“Caroline was AMAZING!! She was completely attentive to my cat’s needs and personality, and it was clear from the great vids and photos she sent that our kitty was very happy in her care. ☺️ I will definitely book with her again!”

My services will make your pets feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you are gone.

“This was my first time on Rover and my yellow lab Gus had a great time with Rebeca and her family! She provided photo updates and was very friendly. They live on a nice neighborhood and have a great home for dogs to feel at home and play!! Thank you again. We will definitely be booking again with Rebeca”

“Courtney took amazing care of my puppy, Mocha! She kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pup with her and will definitely book again.”

About: I am taking care of dogs since I was 13 years old when I got my first dog, I worked with an NGO as I grew to help with rescues. I have been around dogs all my life basically. When I moved countries I decided to expand my family and we got Blu :) (my husky) I treat all fur babies as part of my family, and make sure the pet feels safe and loved. Be ready to get alot of pics and videos of your fur baby when you leave them with me I work from home, its me and my husky while kids and husband are out most of the day :) We go out for walks, we have a small dog park sometimes we go there as well. I take Blu 3 times for her walk as she enjoys it and I get to complete my steps I live in an apartment (1500 Sq Ft) no fenced yard but we have well maintained society where I take them out for walk, we also have a small park for them to run and burn energy. We enjoy a good company !

“Belinda was amazing with Juno and helped out while I was at work for a work trip! Juno had a great time and it was amazing knowing Juno was in great care! Thank you so much!”

“Jessica was very kind and considerate of Rocky ‘s needs. I absolutely felt so content knowing Rocky was in Jessica‘s care and will feel much at ease when she is watching Rocky for future dates. When Rocky was picked up, he looked like he was relaxed and had a fun time. I would highly recommend Jessica.”


“Carol responded to the call of duty right when I needed her! I recently had surgery this week and overestimated being up for the challenge of healing and watching my pup. I attempted to call local pet hotels, but because my puppy hadn’t been with them before it was impossible to get in at the last minute. Carol not only replied right after I messaged her (at 7 AM in the morning) but she even agreed to meet me somewhere that was closer to my home (due to me healing and not able to be in the car for long) to pick up the pup. I truly recommend Carol and she has been such a lifesaver! She sent me a picture and updates of my pup (he has never been around anyone but myself and my family and this made me feel very at ease) and there were other pups for him to hang out with! She has even been checking up with my pup and myself the day after and I will definitely be using her services again. Thanks Carol!”

About: We believe in caring for dogs’ emotional needs as much as their physical ones. That means lots of attention, playtime, and a calm, structured environment. We host one guest dog at a time (or a bonded pair) to ensure each pup receives personalized care and feels at home. With work-from-home adults and a large fenced backyard, your dog will have plenty of human interaction, room to roam, and time to relax indoors with our friendly labradoodle, Penny. We also enjoy taking 1–2 walks a day (sometimes more!) and welcome visiting dogs to join if they'd like — though we understand some prefer to stay home and chill. We've raised two doodle puppies ourselves and are happy to care for your puppy too! We work from home and rarely have commitments that take us out for more than a few hours. Penny keeps us on a healthy routine, and we truly enjoy how dogs get us outside and moving — it’s good for everyone! We have a fully fenced backyard with plenty of squirrels, chipmunks, and bunnies to keep things interesting! Visiting dogs can play outside with our labradoodle, Penny, or lounge comfortably indoors. They’re welcome on the couch or can relax on a dog bed nearby while we work. We keep things low-key and structured, with lots of attention and calm energy throughout the day. We also take time to reassure visiting dogs that their parent(s) will be back soon — and that this is a fun place to explore in the meantime! We give each pup a tour of the house when they arrive, showing them where they can go and helping them settle in. It’s part of how we help them feel safe and at home right from the start.
“I hesitated writing a review because Rosemary was so great that I don't want to share her accolades with everyone because the she'll just get booked up. She took care of my dog like it was hers and my pup couldn't have been happier. It was a pleasure to have Rosemary watch my Mabel!”

“Another great stretch of daycare days with Likun and EL! He races to her house every morning which tells me he loves going! I can go to work knowing he’s in good hands. Thank you again!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets, my own or others ever since I’ve was in kindergarten. I am an ordained Animal Chaplain. I have studied animal behavior and animal ethics. I can bring peace to your animals that are missing you while you are away. I work part-time so I’m happy to take care of animals as they fit into my flexible work schedule. I am available on weekends also. I have a fully fenced backyard to let out dogs. I am familiar with crate training and I’m able to crate dogs if needed. I can walk dogs and help them to feel at peace and ease while they are away from their owner, or their owner is away from them.
“Ying is so sweet to our pup and makes sure she has everything she needs throughout the day. We love receiving photos and updates and Ying is great with them. We will definitely be booking again!”

“Marcia was absolutely wonderful! She is incredibly kind and clearly loves animals. I received frequent updates with photos and videos throughout the day, which really helped to ease my mind. I loved the videos watching my dog, Mylo, get to play with Marcia and Cosmo! My high-energy puppy came home happy and exhausted, which is the best compliment I can give considering Mylo’s energy level! I highly recommend Marcia to any pet owner looking for a loving and responsible sitter.”

About: Hi, I’m Xinyue, I’m part-time a dog treats baker! I bake fresh dog cookie and cake from scratch. May dream is to open a dog treats store. I have a 4-year-old Golden Retriever. I walk him twice a day and have trained him to sit, lie down, stay, fetch the ball, come back, and follow several other commands. He is well-trained. I also bake fresh homemade dog treats for him. If your pet stays with us, I will treat them like family too! Weihai works from home all day, he will be home with dogs all the time, Xinyue that’s me I usually walk the dog in the morning and play with him in the yard after I get home. I have shorter work hours during the summer, so I’ll be home often to take care of them. I’m also usually available on weekends and love taking dogs on hikes, to the park, or to the beach. We have a fenced yard and a 4-year-Golden Retriever named Igo, who is super friendly with both dogs and people. There’s also a dog door that leads to the yard. If your dog stays with Igo and us, they’ll be welcome to cuddle on the couch or relax in the yard—whatever they prefer! But I’ll never leave the dog along in the yard.

“This was Marley a first official visit. We did a meet and greet a few weeks ago. Marley loved his visit. He did the doggy daycare and he wanted to stay, which is always a good sign! Elizabeth and Neil sent me picture and videos which was nice to see. Illy little guy got home and went straight to taking a nap because of all the fun he had. He loves being outdoors and with their big fenced in yard he was completely in love! Marley will definitely be a regular from now on! Thanks Elizabeth and Neil!”

“Fantastic puppy sitter!! Jasper loves going to play at Carol's and comes home exhausted. I love knowing he's well looked after, happy, and safe. Great communication and pictures. Thank you so much!!”

“Catherine has been great with our 2 black labs the last couple of months. They get excited every time she comes to the door, because they know they're going for a nice walk. We are scheduled for 3 walks a week but with the holidays, snow days,and work from home days the schedule has fluctuated drastically. Catherine has been very accommodating. I highly recommend her services.”

About: Dogs have always been my passion! I grew up surrounded by them! I just moved back home to Massachusetts after living in Madrid, and my schedule is wide open this summer, so your pup will get lots of attention, frequent walks, and great company. I come to you, I take care of dogs in their own home, so they stay comfortable in their own space and routine (feeding times, walks, whatever they’re used to). I’m patient, attentive, and take every dog’s happiness seriously. I just moved back to Massachusetts from Spain and I have plenty of time and flexibility to focus on pet care. This summer I eager to give your pet lots of attention, walks, and companionship! Proporciono un entorno tranquilo, seguro y acogedor para que las mascotas se relajen y se sientan como en casa. Respeto la rutina de cada perro — comidas, paseos y cuidados especiales. Mi prioridad es que estén cómodos, seguros y felices, siempre con mucha atención y cariño.

“Candi has been wonderful with my dog, Pepper! She’s done several drop-ins for me and always follows the directions I leave for feeding and care to a T, which gives me peace of mind. Today she also took Pepper out for a walk, and everything went smoothly. Pepper ! I really appreciate her reliability, clear communication, and the care she shows. Highly recommend!”

About: I am a dog person. Just lost my best friend in October and thought it would be nice to help others with their babies. I will be honest, I don’t have any special skills, just a lot of love to share with your pet while you’re away. I work Monday through Friday 6:30 AM to 1 PM. My afternoons are open for walking and playing. My weekends are open unless I am away. I have a nice big fenced in yard and don’t go out much during the week. Have a lot of friends with dogs for playdates.

During the year I'm a full-time college student, but I have plenty of time this summer to care for your pets, including overnight stays if required. I will treat your home with respect. I am very good at following instructions, so any and all rules you set out will be followed to a T.
About: I’ve taken care of animals of many species my whole life. From dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, fish, frogs, and more, I know how to care for your animal!

I’m currently working part time and have my schedule wide open for your furry (or not so furry) friends! Feel free to reach out anytime!

However I have much space for any small animals and scaly friends that may need to bunk for a bit 😉 Your four legged family members will be loved and cared for like they’re my own animals with daily updates, pictures, and fun!
