“Boudica had another amazing stay with Harriet! We very much appreciated the photo updates throughout the week which allowed us to see the fun she was having on the farm and with her dog friends.”
“Highly recommend Jennifer and Stephen to take care of your furbaby! It is a doggie heaven at their house with lounging spots galore. Sunny spot? Check. Soft like a cloud? Check. In front of a fireplace? Yep. I'd vote them the Outer Cape's best Dog B&B!”
“Caitlin was very accommodating in our last minute request for a long weekend stay! She gave lots of updates and was reassuring the whole time for our high maintenance dog. Highly recommend her. We hope to use her help again for any future cape visits!”
“Karen was terrific in helping with logistics for leaving Scout in her care and for going the extra effort to drop Scout back home. She kept in touch with me everyday with a picture and message and expressed her happiness with Scout. Scout was VERY happy when I walked in the house last evening— she was sooo excited to see me. Today she is calm and relaxed. I interpret her behavior as having had a positive experience with Karen and the other dogs she Karen was caring for. Very satisfied. Kathy”
About: I grew up with animals. As a result, I have had the responsibility of animal care since I was 6 years old. It is a part of my core self. I trained a rescue pit bull in my adult life. Through this process I learned a lot about the psychology of dogs and how to be a responsible dog owner. I had 12 wonderful years with her. I lost her in May and i am missing that canine connection. I am responsible, dependable, and I have a flexible schedule and a calm home. I have a flexible schedule. I work full time but some of that is from home. When I am not, at home, my office is a 7 minute drive away. Well behaved dogs can come to my office me. I have a small home that is primarily one floor. It has a yard (not fenced). I do not have children or other pets. I live a quiet and calm life and I am able to attend to animals with full attention.
“You guys, Michele is the one!! I couldn't have imagined a better person to care for my baby! She's so loving and so fun and a true kind soul. It's obvious that she truly loves these pups. My little guy had a great vacation with her! She took him out every day to super fun places and he had the time of his life! She went above and beyond to make sure my dog was happy and felt comfortable, even hand-feeding him his food when he didn't really want to eat. We're so thankful for her and can't wait to use her again!”
“Julie is a dedicated and warmly caring person whose care of my two dogs while I was away in Europe went over and above the expected. She was especially attentive to my sweet old 16+ year old Wheaten, showing just how well she knows how to meet the needs of a senior dog. Thank you, Julie!”
“I’m guilty of being a helicopter Mom. My dog is very attached to me and spoiled! Needless to say I was overly worried leaving Finn for 5 nights. Steve was amazing putting me to ease. He sent pictures and videos that clearly showed Finn both happy and comfortable. Finn will be a repeat customer:)”
“Andrea and Bob were fabulous! It is very clear they love dogs and are caring people. Clover felt right at home with them and certainly enjoyed her time as was evident by the wonderful pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Caitlin was terrific. She took good care of Sandy, gave us plenty of updates and photos. It was clear he felt at home and made to feel like part of the family.”
“Harley had an amazing time with Melissa and Kellie and their pup! Hosts were so flexible, easy to communicate with, and clearly love fur friends. We can’t wait to use them again”
“David was such a great pal to my 8-month-old golden retriever, Stanley, who has the energy of a caffeinated toddler and the emotional eagerness of someone who thinks every head scratch might be their last. I got regular updates — photos of 5:30 a.m. tug-of-war, joyful dog park adventures, and one sneaky but proud toilet paper heist — which made being away for five days (our longest stretch yet!) so much easier. When I picked Stanley up, he was calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. Communication with David was smooth, direct, and quick, and he was super flexible. When Stanley saw me through the screen door at David’s place, he was wiggling with excitement — but also clearly torn to leave his new friends. I’d trust these two to hang out again anytime!”
“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!”
“Christian was absolutely fantastic taking care of Aspen! We were away in France and had no worries about our pet because we were constantly updated with messages, photos, and check ins about Aspen's status. This is very reassuring as an owner. I have bookmarked Christian's name on Rover for our next vacation!”
“Karen hosted my dog Lulu overnight and was very genial & accommodating as well as an excellent communicator. It was clear that Lulu felt very comfortable with Karen and her sweet dog.”
“Would give 10 stars if I could! We needed a place for Ruby to stay for a full month. Chelsea was amazing during the entire process, she was super helpful in setting up Ruby’s stay. She was so flexible in scheduling time for us to visit Ruby during the month and great at communicating with us. Ruby LOVED staying at Chelsea’s and was actually really sad for a few days when we got home. Would absolutely book with Chelsea again, thank you so much for taking such amazing care of our girl! ??”
“We had a great experience with Bonnie. She was very attentive to our 2 Vizlas over a two day boarding and became great friends with her golden retriever Neptune. Will definitely rebook with Bonnie.”
“Madaket was wonderful. I was sent pictures of my dog Shelby during my 2-week absence. I really appreciated that. It certainly looked like Shelby was enjoying herself. I would highly recommend Madaket as a dog sitter and plan to use her again!”

About: I have owned 4 dogs throughout my entire life and am a total animal lover! I love and enjoy walking and connecting with dogs, and have had much experience walking my own dogs (2 Portuguese water dogs) as well as dogs of my friends and family. I also have experience feeding, bathing, and playing with/entertaining dogs. They are my favorite! I am working part time with an ambiguous schedule, so I definitely have availability for walking dogs whenever! Weekdays during the morning/afternoon work best for me, but feel free to reach out about other times, I am flexible! I have a backyard with space to play around, as well as a retractable fence. I am comfortable crating if needed. My neighborhood is great for walking dogs as well.
“Christian did a fantastic job taking care of our 14 year old cat, Ludde. Ludde is on medicated diet and had just arrived back to the Cape after some long air plane rides. I was worried leaving him, but Christian put me at ease right away, took great care of Ludde and sent us plenty of photos and pictures. It was a relief to find such a competent and caring pet sitter.”
“We needed someone to watch our new puppy for a few hours. Brielle was the perfect fit. She was polite, caring and followed up with a quick text so we knew our puppy was great while she was gone. I would definitely recommend Brielle!”
“I can’t say enough positive things about my experience with Caitlin. I needed a last-minute drop in as our plans had suddenly changed and I’m so happy we chose Caitlin. She was responsive, flexible, prompt, and catered to about 14 special requests. She kept us updated during her entire stay and sent ADORABLE pictures and videos. If you’re looking for a responsible, kind, dog-loving person to help you out, look no further! Our dogs LOVED her, too!”
“On short notice, Chelsea recently took care of Cape Cod’s newest “wash-a-shore” cats, Humpty Dumpty & Red. Right from her initial visit, I knew that I had hired someone who was not only professional & knowledgeable, but was also passionate about caring for animals! My cats & I highly recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for an outstanding pet sitter!”
“Caroline was our first experience using Rover and we were so pleased! She and Yogi immediately bonded and we were at ease. Her experience with pugs was a plus! The Rover updates during her visits were fantastic!”
“Lara was truly wonderful with our shepherds. She connected right away with them, and was very caring in her interactions. They loved her right back. She was also flexible when timing changed for the visit. We highly recommend her!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life and volunteer weekly at an adoption center, walking various different breeds and ensuring they get the care they need and the necessary exercise. I am currently a student and look forward to taking care of pets and providing them with the care they need. I have had a passion for taking care of animals ever since I was really little and cannot wait to provide pets with my services! I have had a multitude of pet experiences and will watch for signs from your dog to ensure their best care. In my own home pets are like family and your pets will be treated as such.
About: I have been taking care of our bull dogs for seven years now. We adopt and had three before our oldest recently passed away. Bull dogs provide quite a bit of high maintenance care such as cleaning all folds multiple times a day, tail pockets, monitoring skin for yeast or allergies and of course… wiping butts after potty time. At least two walks or forms of exercise a day to keep them in shape for their health and breathing issues; if you see my babies photos, they are in super shape! So caring for three I feel shows my love, responsibility, managing skills and understanding of how to properly and lovingly care for pets. For many years now, I have also cared for a variety of my family members dogs and cats, whether that involves feeding, walking/ exercise, over nights, and loving attention. I am Corporate Life Coach & Counselor so I have a flexible schedule that I make myself, in a variety of towns in Massachusetts ( which is why my radius is so big) I also have a rental house in Dennisport MA, so providing pet care in the Cape is an option too! I love my fur-babies and providing love, exercise and quality time is what your pet deserves too! I will be providing services at your household, so any and all safety protocol will be provided that suits you and your pet to the fullest!
About: Cats are therapeutic; I cherish quality time playing and socialising with their unique personalities, recognising each cat’s individual needs. I can administer medication and also evaluate any pets condition! I can take them to appointments and also evaluate any essential changes needed in their diet or environment! <3

About: We have owned and cared for dogs and cats for our entire lives. Friends and family joyfully leave their fur babies with us for day and overnight stays on a regular basis. We very much enjoy taking pups for walks through town, woods and the beach. We're happy to walk your dog in the environment that's best for them. We work from home as an artist and artisan and are available to provide constant monitoring and supervision for pets under our care. We generally offer services from November-May. My home has plenty of space to give your pet quiet solo time if desired. I currently have a 2.5 year old female lab mix who absolutely loves dogs and cats alike as well as a cat who really enjoys watching dogs (he has his own space on the second floor if dogs and cats need/want to be separated). We typically do a morning, afternoon and evening walk that is 1-2 miles long, but can adjust the distance and frequency to suit your pet. In addition to walks, we visit the yard frequently for play and potty breaks. We take pride in tailoring your dog's visit to individual needs. Your dog will have a room that will be their own for the duration of their stay so they can eat without interruption at their own pace (as well as sleep and hang out if they prefer solo time). If your dog desires, we also have plenty of common area space to interact with people as well as our dog.
“I feel so fortunate that Cassandra was able to dog-sit my pup on such short notice in Provincetown. She was extremely responsive and flexible as we solidified the booking and my plans and she went above and beyond taking care of my Nico. They played, she took him for a walk and she updated me with photos. I would be so happy to hire Cassandra again and highly recommend her for caring for your pet.”
“David was great. He welcomed Niko into his home and on relatively short notice allowing us to enjoy a nice dinner in Provincetown without any worry. We’ll definitely book again with him in the future.”
“Tara was wonderful - she watched Ace for two days during the day. The first day he had a little separation anxiety and Tara was very gentle with him, and sent regular updates. The second day, he barely looked back when I dropped him off because he was so excited to hang out with her! She is communicative and flexible. Would definitely use her services again.”
“Glenn and Kirsten took care of my pup, Jesse -- Kirsten took the time to show me around the yard to be sure I was comfortable with it, both made sure to inquire as to what Jesse's needs would be for the day... Thank you!”
“This is the second time we’ve Caitlin for our multi dog household during our Cape vacation! I highly recommend. She is so flexible and available for care even the day before and seems so comfortable with our dogs, even one who can be a little more nervous.”
“Karen is fantastic! From the moment she met us and our anxious pup, Ernie, we knew that he was in great care. We so appreciated her communications pre-arrival and the video and picture updates provided during his daycare stay. Ernie was happy and certainly slept well after pickup, just as Karen said he would :) We highly recommend and will definitely book again!”
About: I have take care of animals for over 2 decades. Pups are my favorite and I also have chickens and volunteers with horses on a local farm. I respect nature and appreciate what great companions animals are for us humans. I treat them as family members. I had 3 dogs from puppies to their senior age and understand all stages of dog lives. I can play, socialize, train puppies. Walk fast pace with athletic dogs or slow down for littles or seniors. I can give medicine and keep an eye on health any conditions. I have 10yo son who is a huge dog lover and helps out with our dog and chickens and also does barn chores at the farm. I feel so blessed we both feel the same love for all creatures on Earth. I currently work from home, so your pup(s) will have a companion most of the time. I also go on 2-3 walks a day and we have a nice private yard for additional play and relax. We have a private yard, one friendly 2yo Boston terrier who has proven to be more than a gracious host to all sorts of furry visitors. He naturally accepts their energy if they want to play or are shy and need time. We also had some rescues and traumatized pets and Gizmo proved to a respectful companion. He is the reason I love pups and want them to have the most fantastic time in our home.
“My dog, Kiwi, had a fabulous visit with Andrea and Bob! They were extremely communicative and accommodating before our visit. They took care to learn Kiwi’s quirks, likes, and dislikes (she has a big personality, so there are a lot!). They even had toys and balls at their house for her to play with. It’s clear that they are experienced and intuitive dog caretakers, which is so important to me as a nervous dog mom. When I went to pick her up, Kiwi was all smiles and happy body language…I know she had a fabulous time and can’t wait to go back! Thank you, Andrea and Bob.”
“Chelsea watched our miniature schnauzer mix for a day and she was absolutely wonderful with him. She was very responsive and flexible, and made the whole process so easy. When we went to pick up our pup, he looked so content just sitting in her arms, and he NEVER sits still. We will call upon Chelsea again in the future, no hesitation!”
“William and his wife were amazing! They have a great indoor and outdoor space to manage the dogs in their care, including a split fenced in yard to separate dogs. I knew my dog would be in good hands and would definitely leave her in their care again.”
About: Hi, I’m Jenny! I’m thrilled to meet your canine, feline, or even small animal best friend. Growing up surrounded by animals, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, and guinea pigs. I’ve also fostered cats, boarded dogs, and taken courses in animal behavior and cognition, giving me a solid foundation in understanding pets’ needs. I work from home, which allows me to provide flexible and personalized care for your pet. Whether it’s walks to a nearby park, playtime or adhering to your pet’s specific routine, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels at home. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Whether you need daily visits, overnight care, or last-minute help, my flexible schedule allows me to provide the attention your pet deserves. Weekends and holidays? No problem—I’m here for you! Happy to take care of your pet the way you need (e.g., crate, no crate, bathroom outings every 2 hours, scheduled meals, etc.). I’m very flexible and will work with you on any special requests.
“Michele took good care of our senior dog so we could be tourists in Chatham for the day! She’s got a great fenced in and grassy back yard and even took notes for our dogs special needs.”
“I booked Stephen the same day 1 hour before booking. He was very generous and took amazing care of my Poppy. He also kept me updated with texts and pictures. Poppy was very happy. I highly recommend and will definitely book again when I’m in the area.”
“We had a fantastic experience with Cindi through Rover while vacationing in Cape Cod. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond to make Finnegan feel comfortable and loved. She arranged a meet and greet a few days before the drop-off, during which she asked thoughtful questions and took notes on Finnegan’s preferences, showing her genuine care and attention to detail. Despite the less-than-ideal weather, Cindi took Finnegan on multiple walks, demonstrating her dedication and love for dogs. Throughout his stay, she kept us wonderfully updated with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected even from afar. When it was time to pick him up, Finnegan ran right to her door like he owned the place a clear sign of how happy and comfortable he was with her. We will definitely be using Cindi again and highly recommend her to other dog owners looking for a caring, attentive, and reliable sitter.”
“So thankful for Helena and her cat! My lil guy Guinness had a wonderful day playing and walking and fetching. Happy to be dropped off, happy after I picked him up. Thank you Helena!! Will hit you up next time I’m on the cape with Guinness for sure.”
“Abby was so amazing!!! I work long hours at the hospital and she not only picked my dog up from my apt but went above and beyond, taking my dog to the dog park and the beach! She sent multiple updates throughout the day. She was also easy to reach, very responsive, and friendly. I would highly recommend Abby to anyone needing a dog sitter.”

“We hired Brielle B. at the last minute because our afternoon schedule suddenly fell through, and they were an absolute lifesaver! From start to finish, the experience was fantastic. Lightning-fast response and excellent communication leading up to the walk. Thorough and Detailed Report after the walk. Absolutely GREAT Photos! Our pup came back happy, healthy, and, most importantly, perfectly tired! Highly recommend Brielle—they are reliable and clearly care about the dogs they walk.”

About: I am a very compassionate, enthusiastic person that absolutely loves dogs! I don’t have a dog of my own anymore and only take one dog with no other dogs - unless the dogs in your family are more than one - the more the merrier in that case I’m in! I know many dogs do not get along with other dogs which is normal for many dogs, no worries I get it! This is a huge peace of mind for many dogs and their owners- and my specialty catering to one dog - hence my pricing. Believe me it’s worth every penny! A bit about me- my family and friends have always say “I’m a dog whisperer”! I have always had dogs in my life, but I lost my best friend (yellow lab). She was my soulmate! I am now ready to enjoy and take care of your fur-baby or fur-babies as my own. I give one on one attention to your dog that you will not find anywhere! All the dogs do very well with me, and their owner’s have all said they’ve had a huge relief knowing their fur- babies are in good, loving hands with me! You will absolutely have a peace of mind!! I’m available for house sitting in their comfort of your home or vacation/summer home or boarding here at my home. I also do drop in visits with walks, play and company for your pet. I love going on adventures with trail hikes, beaches and exploring with your pups. I know dogs, and I know their needs. Dogs need social interactions, company and lots of attention just like we do as humans! Your dog(s) will always be my bestie too! I look forward to hearing from you, meeting you and your fur baby! I am home full time (early retired teacher) and have plenty of time to walk, play and cuddle with your pet! I’m available for your needs and your pet needs too! I have a great yard, deck to play and hang out together. I live in a quiet area that has great places for taking walks, hikes, beaches (when dogs are allowed during the year here), and adventures with your fur baby! People tell me it’s like doggie vacation camp when their dogs come stay with me!
About: I had a dog for over 13 years! After she passed away from lymphoma cancer, I told myself I’d give the love my dog gave me to other cute animals! She taught me patience and love like no other!

I move to the Cape full time and am available to walk dogs, house sit, and board small to medium sized animals in my home in Orleans. We have a fenced in backyard and lots of space to run on the beach. I work remotely, part-time as an attorney and set my own schedule. My true love is animals! My flexibility gives me plenty of time to care for pets, in your home, in mine, or just for a walk. I take my dogs for a daily run to on the beach and am happy to take along another. I can also care for your dog alone in your home (and leave mine home with my amazing family). Finally, I am available for walking your pup, most days in your neighborhood or mine. We have an acre of land and half is fenced in for dogs. We have extra cages if desired. Ours never enjoyed their crates. We will follow your schedule and treat your pet like a member of the family. We invite interviews in advance to ensure we are the right fit for your pet.

“Highly recommend Jennifer and Stephen to take care of your furbaby! It is a doggie heaven at their house with lounging spots galore. Sunny spot? Check. Soft like a cloud? Check. In front of a fireplace? Yep. I'd vote them the Outer Cape's best Dog B&B!”
“Caitlin was very accommodating in our last minute request for a long weekend stay! She gave lots of updates and was reassuring the whole time for our high maintenance dog. Highly recommend her. We hope to use her help again for any future cape visits!”
“Karen was terrific in helping with logistics for leaving Scout in her care and for going the extra effort to drop Scout back home. She kept in touch with me everyday with a picture and message and expressed her happiness with Scout. Scout was VERY happy when I walked in the house last evening— she was sooo excited to see me. Today she is calm and relaxed. I interpret her behavior as having had a positive experience with Karen and the other dogs she Karen was caring for. Very satisfied. Kathy”
“You guys, Michele is the one!! I couldn't have imagined a better person to care for my baby! She's so loving and so fun and a true kind soul. It's obvious that she truly loves these pups. My little guy had a great vacation with her! She took him out every day to super fun places and he had the time of his life! She went above and beyond to make sure my dog was happy and felt comfortable, even hand-feeding him his food when he didn't really want to eat. We're so thankful for her and can't wait to use her again!”
“Julie is a dedicated and warmly caring person whose care of my two dogs while I was away in Europe went over and above the expected. She was especially attentive to my sweet old 16+ year old Wheaten, showing just how well she knows how to meet the needs of a senior dog. Thank you, Julie!”
“I’m guilty of being a helicopter Mom. My dog is very attached to me and spoiled! Needless to say I was overly worried leaving Finn for 5 nights. Steve was amazing putting me to ease. He sent pictures and videos that clearly showed Finn both happy and comfortable. Finn will be a repeat customer:)”
“Andrea and Bob were fabulous! It is very clear they love dogs and are caring people. Clover felt right at home with them and certainly enjoyed her time as was evident by the wonderful pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Caitlin was terrific. She took good care of Sandy, gave us plenty of updates and photos. It was clear he felt at home and made to feel like part of the family.”
“Harley had an amazing time with Melissa and Kellie and their pup! Hosts were so flexible, easy to communicate with, and clearly love fur friends. We can’t wait to use them again”
“David was such a great pal to my 8-month-old golden retriever, Stanley, who has the energy of a caffeinated toddler and the emotional eagerness of someone who thinks every head scratch might be their last. I got regular updates — photos of 5:30 a.m. tug-of-war, joyful dog park adventures, and one sneaky but proud toilet paper heist — which made being away for five days (our longest stretch yet!) so much easier. When I picked Stanley up, he was calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. Communication with David was smooth, direct, and quick, and he was super flexible. When Stanley saw me through the screen door at David’s place, he was wiggling with excitement — but also clearly torn to leave his new friends. I’d trust these two to hang out again anytime!”
“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!”
“Christian was absolutely fantastic taking care of Aspen! We were away in France and had no worries about our pet because we were constantly updated with messages, photos, and check ins about Aspen's status. This is very reassuring as an owner. I have bookmarked Christian's name on Rover for our next vacation!”
“Karen hosted my dog Lulu overnight and was very genial & accommodating as well as an excellent communicator. It was clear that Lulu felt very comfortable with Karen and her sweet dog.”
“Would give 10 stars if I could! We needed a place for Ruby to stay for a full month. Chelsea was amazing during the entire process, she was super helpful in setting up Ruby’s stay. She was so flexible in scheduling time for us to visit Ruby during the month and great at communicating with us. Ruby LOVED staying at Chelsea’s and was actually really sad for a few days when we got home. Would absolutely book with Chelsea again, thank you so much for taking such amazing care of our girl! ??”
“Madaket was wonderful. I was sent pictures of my dog Shelby during my 2-week absence. I really appreciated that. It certainly looked like Shelby was enjoying herself. I would highly recommend Madaket as a dog sitter and plan to use her again!”
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.
