“Sunny is our go-to for the past 3-4 years whenever we need to board Lucky. Every time Lucky went straight into their house without even looking back at us. He is definitely spoiled when staying with them. We really would wish to continually have Sunny to watch for Lucky, but sadly we are relocating to the west coast. Lucky will miss them so much!”
About: Graduated from UNH class 2014 with a Bachelors in Zoology. Proud to have over 20 years of animal care. 15 years of multi pet ownership . ---Raised and trained 8 dogs from puppy to adult. Spent 6 months volunteering at an animal shelter. Have completed Two separate 10 session dog training courses with a certified dog trainer. Have completed online Instructional courses on E-collar training and behavior modification. Have experience handling dogs with behavioral issues/quirks Have cared for pets of family and friends in addition to my own for over 15 years . My family and I currently have two dogs and a lizard, so pet care is part of our daily routine, 24/7 365. My own dogs are walked daily and stimulated through play and training. When we are home as a family, the dogs are out with us enjoying life. When we are out of the house, they are either crated or secured in a room with fresh water. Safety/Security and respecting the animals are my core values. While the animals in my home are cared for like family, they are taught to respect boundaries and work for affection. In my care, pets are leashed unless they are in a secure, fenced area. I take the time to understand each animal is an individual who has unique needs. I cater my approach to each animal based on their specific demeanor.
“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.”
“Kari was absolutely amazing with my dog! Maisy received lots of love and attention with long walks, fun games, snuggle time, and belly rubs - all of it right by Kari’s side ❤️ I received lots of photos and updates along the way, this was a match made in heaven, we would love to come back next summer!”
“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!!!”
“Deb was great! She is such a godsend! We didn't think we could board our anxious, diabetic dog but Deb handled him like a pro. It's such a relief knowing we can go away now.”
“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 was absolutely wonderful! She kept us updated with pictures and texts. Loki had a fantastic time with Daisy and running on the beach and walking through the bogs. I highly recommend Larisa and look forward to using her again.”
“Kaedy, my Jack Russell terrier stayed with Mike for a couple days and had a great time. He kept me updated with pictures and texts. Got back to me quickly with answers to my questions. Will definitely board her there again.”
“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.”
“Anna took great care of my 1 year old dog who is a ball of energy! 10/10 recommend great sitter and clear she is a genuine dog lover. Would 100% ask her to sit my dog again and fully vouch for anyone else to consider dropping theirs off to her! Thank you Anna!”
“Justine was a phenomenal sitter! We had a bit of a last minute need for a sitter and couldn’t be more happy with our experience. Justine was attentive, helpful, and incredibly friendly. We had so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog Violet got along so well with her Piper, and they definitely became fast friends. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Marcia did an excellent job taking care of Tuka! I could tell he was very comfortable with her and her family both when I left him and picked him up. Loved all the pictures she sent! We will definitely use her again!”
“Jennifer was amazing. Highly recommend hiring her to watch your pet. Communication was flawless from start to finish, and she was always incredibly quick to respond to my text updates. I loved receiving the photos she sent throughout the weekend, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She truly went above and beyond to make my dog feel at home. She spent time playing fetch—my dog's absolute favorite game—and was highly observant and adaptable when Daisy interacted with her own two dogs, ensuring all the pups felt safe and comfortable. To top it all off, she even sent my dog home with a toy she had fallen in love with during her stay. I will absolutely be booking her again!”
“Great experience. I have left my shy rescue with Lisa several times, Lisa put her right at ease, and she has a good time hanging out and going for walks with Roscoe. Lisa has also been really flexible and said yes to a last minute request.”
“Samantha took amazing care of my little cat and guinea pig . She was on time , commutative and showed that she really has a big heart that cares about people and their animals. I will definitely be reaching out to her again for her amazing service.”

About: Hello! I have just moved down to Plymouth from NH where I have been caring for neighborhood pets since I was a child. I am a mom of two young boys and a big goofy black lab named Larry. I love to take walks with my dog and stroller and would love to add your dog along too! I am also able to dog sit for weekends, vacations, whatever need be! Please feel free to reach out and schedule me for whatever your pet family needs. I am free to watch, walk, or care for dogs whenever needed! In the fall I will be teaching so my time will be more limited. I live in a town park with many walking/hiking trails for dogs to explore! There are also plenty of swimming holes for any dogs who are water lovers! I plan to walk with my stroller and baby. I do have my own black lab who loves other dogs who can walk with us or stay home if you prefer! For dog sitting however there are children in the home and my dog but we welcome any family friendly pups!
“Jessica was the perfect person for us. Outstanding communication, clearly loves animals, and goes above and beyond in every way. She will instantly be our first choice the next time we need to leave for a few days and look for someone to care for our cats. Highly recommended.”
About: I've been pet sitting for my family as long as I can remember. My parents have always had pets, so I've spent my entire life caring for many different animals. I have experience caring after dogs, cats, chickens, fish, and small mammals such as bunnies and rats. I am also knowledgeable about reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates though I have never personally owned any. I am self employed so I am completely open to any time a pet sitter is needed. I am available at all hours of the day and on short notice if you are in a rush! I try my best to create a safe and clean environment for any animal. I will follow any instructions given to make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible!
About: With 12 years of veterinary technician experience and cat ownership of my own, I’m very comfortable caring for cats of all ages and temperaments — from energetic kittens to senior cats needing medication or extra patience. I understand feline body language and stress cues and always take time to earn each cat’s trust. Whether your cat loves playtime or prefers quiet companionship, I create a calm, predictable routine so they feel safe and content while you’re away. I have a cat of my own who will be 18 this year! I am an avid believer of happy cat=happy and long life!
“Alison was great checking in on my cat while I was away for a few days. She was excellent in her communication and giving me updates on how he was doing, and I felt like he was in great hands. I will definitely be using her again next time he needs watching.”
About: Having grown up with dogs and cared for dogs for other families, I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines. I'm a loving, attentive caregiver who enjoys spending quality time with animals, whether that's going for walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always make their comfort, safety, and happiness my top priorities. I'm currently working part time, leaving much space in my schedule to lend a helping hand to pet owners. Despite being a student, I find I have much free time on my hands. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet. My home has a large fenced-in backyard for playtime and an air-conditioned house for relaxing indoors. I follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding, walks, exercise, and plenty of attention, to help them feel happy and comfortable while you're away.
“Christine is absolutely the best! She took incredible care of our children and I highly recommend her. She cared for our kitties as if they were her own. Her Rover reports and daily pictures made our day and we were so relaxed vacationing knowing Christine was taking care of our children. Ollie and Maggie absolutely adore her and we do too!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life, all different breeds with all different needs. My current dog lives with seizures and continuously needs attention, meds, and different foods, so I understand that all dogs need special care, and lots of love! My schedule varies, but I am actively looking to make extra money over the summer, so I will do my best to make bookings work! If visiting your home to care for your pup, I can take them on a walk, play with them, feed them, clean up any accidents if necessary, or give them meds if needed! I want to care for them just the same as you would.
“Sadie has been so caring and attentive of our puppy. She is very prompt and gets the best photos…I don’t know how she does it, but they are perfect. Bernie looks forward to his visits with her!”

About: Hi there! My husband and I are the ultimate dog people. We both grew up with dogs and have been caring for them on and off Rover for years! We took a break from this app as we had a couple of regular pup clients but we are back and eager to meet yours!!! We have been caring for dogs for over 25 years.

She is such a little love, more mellow than your typical 3 year old boxer, is great with all dogs, and can often be found sun bathing on our back patio.

Please note, meet and greets are required for all dog boarding and house sitting requests. Our yard is 3/4s fenced in and we live on a dead end. Dogs are NEVER off leash without owner permission and our full trust in the pup.

About: Hi! I’m Emily, a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner. I currently have three cats and one dog, and I’ve grown up with and owned both cats and dogs of all sizes — from tiny Chihuahuas to a challenging 200-pound dog. I’m very comfortable with different temperaments, energy levels, and personalities. I’ve done extensive training with my own dogs, so I understand the importance of safe walks, structure, consistency, and reading an animal’s body language. I’m also an avid hiker, so I’m happy to provide longer walks or more active outings for dogs who enjoy adventure and are safe around other dogs. I’ve also worked with and volunteered for two different animal shelters, which gave me experience caring for a wide range of animals and helped me become comfortable around pets with different needs, backgrounds, and behaviors. Whether your pet needs exercise, patience, playtime, cuddles, or just someone dependable to check in on them, I’ll treat them like one of my own. i currently work as a therapist 8am-245pm. but sometimes i have an open slot. but available for pet support 3 and after as well as on weekends. i have a runner for if a pet needs to be at my home, about an acre, i have a hiking trail 4min from my home. i have 1 dog and 3 cats all very friendly
“Great experience with Brianna! She was able to watch Chase on short notice and on a holiday! She’s wonderful to work with; great communication, flexible, and really made Chase feel at ease. We felt so relieved and fortunate that we could enjoy a day away knowing that Chase was having a great time and in good hands. We will definitely use Brianna’s services again in the future!”
About: I've been around dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, so spending time with animals has always been a natural part of my life. Growing up with pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities taught me that every animal has unique needs, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel comfortable and happy. As a pet owner myself, I know how much trust goes into leaving a furry family member with someone else. That's why I take the time to stick to their routine, pay attention to the little details, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease while you're away. Whether they're full of energy, a little timid, or simply happiest relaxing at home, I'll meet them where they are and treat them like part of my own family. My goal is for you to return to a happy companion and feel confident knowing they were in caring, dependable hands. Fortunately, the summer schedule has allowed me to be wide open for any boarding and day drop ins as needed. Plus, I have my own animals, so pet care is an everyday routine in my household. I have a large fenced in yard and a goofy doggo to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog and/or mine if needed.
“Justine is fantastic! Justine took care of my dog while I was at a conference, and she was extremely responsive and was constantly sending pictures of Teddy having fun. I can't say enough good things and highly recommend Justine.”
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 work part-time taking care of animals and I'm always available to give your animals the attention they deserve. I am available most days and for overnight care. 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.

“We were visiting Florida from NY and needed a dog sitter for half the day. My pup was well taken care of and Linda sent me lots of pictures. I would definitely use her again if I was in the area. Thank you, Linda!!!”
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.

Im patient, observant, calm and I take pet safety very seriously and prioritize keeping pets comfortable. Im currently available and flexible and will respond quickly! Im currently unemployed so I have A LOT of free time on my hands and would love to take care of your pets! I love dogs and it breaks my heart not being able to have one live with me so I would love to babysit your furry friends instead Im in an apartment with 2 cats and fish! Im not allowed to have a dog but I can have dogs visit and love when my siblings dogs come to visit for the weekend occasionally! There’s woods next to my apartment and two grass spots in my complex perfect for dogs ! My cats are older, have no problem with dogs but are unsure about cats so I would keep them separate.

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: Something worth noting is that every dog I meet ends up falling asleep either on my lap or touching me; I think that says more about my competence than anything else I write here could. I make them feel safe. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including energetic puppies and kittens who need consistent routines, positive reinforcement, and plenty of playtime, as well as senior pets who require a gentler approach, medication administration, and extra patience. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining feeding and exercise schedules, and providing regular updates with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet loves long walks, interactive play, quiet companionship, or extra cuddles, I tailor my care to their individual needs. My goal is to give you peace of mind and ensure your pet is happy, healthy, and well cared for while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention, whether that's feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, or simply keeping them company. I prioritize reliability and make sure I have the time to follow each pet's routine and any special care instructions. My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and weekends when needed. I always focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping them on their normal routine. In my client's home, I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and any household routines the pet is used to. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and I keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of supervised play, regular potty breaks, fresh water, comfortable resting areas, and lots of one-on-one attention. I take the time to learn each pet's personality and needs so I can provide individualized care and help them feel as relaxed and at home as possible.

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.
About: I have been a dog owner for over 40 years. I have watched many pets of family members and neighbors. I love to walk dogs in the woods or on the beach. It is a daily routine and I always make sure that my dogs are well cared for and get plenty of exercise. I currently work part time, 2 days for 4 hours per day so I have plenty of time to care for your dog as dog care is part of my daily routine now. I have a fenced yard and a 10 year old Lab. He is very beta and gets along well with other dogs. My daily routine includes several long walks. If necessary I have plenty of room to crate your dog.
“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 provide dependable, personalized care so your dog gets exercise, attention, and plenty of affection while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer walk, I’ll treat your pet like one of my own. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs.

I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and any special needs before every visit. During walks, I always use secure leashes, avoid unsafe situations, and pay close attention to your dog’s behavior and surroundings. For drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh water, food (if needed), potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own, making sure doors are locked and everything is left just as I found it. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Catherine comes just once a week but is amazingly punctual and focused on our hyper-energetic standard doodle...a life saver for us (physically challenged seniors) for giving Gus exercise on weekends when he isn't at daycare. So happy to have found her on Rover.”
About: I grew up being surrounded by puppies, I’ve owned my own dog for 10 years I’ve also watched and trained many dogs of all stages of life. I’ve never not had dogs around me, although I am no professional dog trainer, I have attended classes on obedience and K-9 protection. Dogs are my world, and you can see it through my love, Lily. She requires extra love and kisses - but also as a rescue is timid of loud noises, barking dogs etc. I’ve continued to preach understanding dogs boundaries, and making them feel the utmost comfortable within their environment. I understand not every dog likes to be smothered with love, and some find love as just simply going on a walk. It would be a pleasure keeping your pup comfortable and happy! I will treat your dog as if they are my own, and will definitely take some cute photos for you! I have great flexibility and willing to work with you as needed. As I do have a dog of my own, I like to limit how late on the weekdays I can stay until - I typically like to stay around 8:00-8:30 PM. I have reliable transportation - and happy to pick up anything last minute!! I only care for pets within your own home - as my pup at home is a grumpy teenager who likes her space. I also like to do home sitting because it’s less stress on the pup and they’re more comfortable in their environment. I am happy to do as many meet and greets as you would like - I have many references and lots of returning clients. I typically will request a note of certain important things (food amt/time to eat/ favorite toys/ odd behaviors etc.). I keep very open communication between myself and my clients and will keep you updated as much as you'd like. I understand that safety and trust is a very big factor, so I am comfortable with any active cameras inside or outside to make you feel comfortable. Some clients will have me shut the indoor ones off once I arrive - and others have kept them on. Please make sure to provide me any information that you feel necessary - I am very easy going and happy to follow any specific guidelines you may have.
About: I have pet-sat for friends and neighbors for several years. I’m comfortable with walks, feedings, and making sure each pet gets plenty of love and playtime. I focus on keeping pets happy and comfortable while maintaining their normal routines. I am currently home during the day with a flexible schedule. I love getting out for fresh air and exercise. I only care for one pet family at a time so I am a perfect option for dogs that don’t get along well with other dogs or prefer to be the main attraction. Getting the opportunity to walk, play and meet your fur babies needs would brighten my day! Safety is my top priority. With your dog being my only guest I can give ensure they get personalized attention. I never leave dogs unattended outside or off-leash in unfenced areas. I am familiar with dog body language and know how to handle dogs of all sizes safely.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, medications, and giving pets extra patience and attention based on their individual needs. I am a college student home for the summer, I have availability all week to meet the needs of your dogs! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life—I have my own dogs, so my routine naturally revolves around feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure they’re happy and healthy. Adding other pets into that routine feels like a natural extension of what I already love doing. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. In my home, pets get plenty of attention, structured routines, and playtime—plus a cozy space to relax, just like one of my own dogs. When I’m in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific instructions. I respect each home as if it were my own and always keep communication open with regular updates and photos.
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.
“Alison has been such a blessing with my return to work! She has come to walk my dog Elliot when I’m in office. She always comes within the time window, sends photos, and tracks their walks. She was kind enough to do a meet & greet beforehand, where I could tell she loves dogs! Elliot loves her, and I know her visits help him get through the day. I am confident that Alison provides excellent care, whether that’s in your home or her home.”

“Autumn was great. She took great care of Ivy and I definitely recommend her as a walker/sitter. She made sure Ivy went to the bathroom and had plenty of water and cooled down after her short walk in the summer heat!”
About: I've lived with and taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes since I can remember. Within the past five years, I've begun an incredibly fulfilling and always-learning professional career with them and many other animals like cats, reptiles, birds, rodents, and even horses. My experience has varied amongst pet hotels and daycares to shelters and rescues and much in between! This has led me to gain experience with obedience and etiquette training, administering medication and aiding treatment recovery, senior and puppy care, and general husbandry care and grooming. I am CPR and first aid certified for dogs and cats and always try my best to make sure the pets in my care have the most fun they can while also being safe and cared for. If your pet is on the shy side or has some special quirks that need acknowledgment, I'm always willing to try and meet their needs. I have experience with everything from fresh puppies to wary shelter rescues, so you can feel comfortable leaving your babies in my care, I will always go at their pace. If you like how I am with your pet please consider booking outside Rover with me next time to save your pockets and mine from their fees! I will happily lower my prices! I am working as a full time animal caretaker, this is my part-time job but I will do my best to be flexible whenever possible. I will adhere to any rules or routines you may have for your pup! I'm familiar with all kinds of training and am happy to send as many pictures/videos and updates you may want of your fuzzy child.
About: Hi! I'm Avery, your dog's new best friend! I am a junior in college pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Political Science, a South Shore and Boston native, and open to serving my community. I am very flexible and willing when it comes to helping you and your pets find quality care! I have seven years of experience dog sitting, experience with administering medication via pill and syringe, taking care of up to four dogs and two cats at a time for over two weeks, elder animal experience, and have been on Rover for a year and a half now. I took a break, but am happy to be back! Giving your pet the care that they deserve is my mission and many owners can attest to that. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, and fish which gave me years of experience in animal care. I am responsible, timely, and reliable. I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon! I am a college student with flexible hours, especially Friday through Monday. I have an internship and I waitress, but my hours at the restaurant can change. My internship is 9-5 Tuesday through Thursday, but I have a two hour lunch break so I can check in, feed, and spend time with your pets. As a homebody, I have no problem staying home with your dog or cat and I will provide you with frequent check ins. Pet care is easy for me because my longest shift waitressing will be 3:30-10:30. Creating a safe and trusting environment with pets and their owners is crucial! I think that pets are like your children and that they deserve the same love, attention, effort, and respect as people. It’s important to keep them well nourished, active, and be kind to them. Animals are our friends and communicate differently, so paying attention to their needs is key. I will treat your home and pet with nothing but respect.

“Sunny is our go-to for the past 3-4 years whenever we need to board Lucky. Every time Lucky went straight into their house without even looking back at us. He is definitely spoiled when staying with them. We really would wish to continually have Sunny to watch for Lucky, but sadly we are relocating to the west coast. Lucky will miss them so much!”
About: Graduated from UNH class 2014 with a Bachelors in Zoology. Proud to have over 20 years of animal care. 15 years of multi pet ownership . ---Raised and trained 8 dogs from puppy to adult. Spent 6 months volunteering at an animal shelter. Have completed Two separate 10 session dog training courses with a certified dog trainer. Have completed online Instructional courses on E-collar training and behavior modification. Have experience handling dogs with behavioral issues/quirks Have cared for pets of family and friends in addition to my own for over 15 years . My family and I currently have two dogs and a lizard, so pet care is part of our daily routine, 24/7 365. My own dogs are walked daily and stimulated through play and training. When we are home as a family, the dogs are out with us enjoying life. When we are out of the house, they are either crated or secured in a room with fresh water. Safety/Security and respecting the animals are my core values. While the animals in my home are cared for like family, they are taught to respect boundaries and work for affection. In my care, pets are leashed unless they are in a secure, fenced area. I take the time to understand each animal is an individual who has unique needs. I cater my approach to each animal based on their specific demeanor.
“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.”
“Kari was absolutely amazing with my dog! Maisy received lots of love and attention with long walks, fun games, snuggle time, and belly rubs - all of it right by Kari’s side ❤️ I received lots of photos and updates along the way, this was a match made in heaven, we would love to come back next summer!”

“Justine was a phenomenal sitter! We had a bit of a last minute need for a sitter and couldn’t be more happy with our experience. Justine was attentive, helpful, and incredibly friendly. We had so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog Violet got along so well with her Piper, and they definitely became fast friends. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Marcia did an excellent job taking care of Tuka! I could tell he was very comfortable with her and her family both when I left him and picked him up. Loved all the pictures she sent! We will definitely use her again!”
“Great experience. I have left my shy rescue with Lisa several times, Lisa put her right at ease, and she has a good time hanging out and going for walks with Roscoe. Lisa has also been really flexible and said yes to a last minute request.”
“Samantha took amazing care of my little cat and guinea pig . She was on time , commutative and showed that she really has a big heart that cares about people and their animals. I will definitely be reaching out to her again for her amazing service.”

“Tim provided a calm and safe environment for our dog while we were at a family event. He is laid back but made us immediately feel like he would treat our pet as he does his own pet. His dog is a very mellow black lab and the two got along very well. Lady didn't want to get in the car to come home with us!! 😢. It took overnight for her to not be mad at us We feel very lucky to have met Tim on Rover and will definitely contact him this way when we travel again.”
