“Summer is the best of the best. She took such good care of our two pups and when one of our pups arthritis started to act up, she loved him and took care of him like he was her own. She was absolutely incredible and we will most certainly be rebooking and I would highly recommend Summer to watch anyone’s pups.”

“Eryn is amazing! I trust her completely in my home and with my cat, Bean. She is incredibly attentive, genuinely caring, and always follows through on any instructions or tasks I leave for her. I can tell she truly enjoys spending time and playing with Bean, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. I’m so happy to have found her as my pet sitter, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats(only a couple) since I was a kid. My friends, family, and nanny families knew they had someone they could trust to take care of and love their fur baby like it was mine. I have lived with a dog my entire life-all rescues(Golden Retriever, Pitty Mixes, King Charles Spaniel, Rotty Mix, Lab Mixes, Great Dane…) Our current fur baby Midnight is a senior Lab Pitty mix. I have experience caring for puppies to seniors. I am comfortable giving medication, feeding, bathing, walking, cleaning up after, and transporting your dog. I have less experience with cats, but have house sat several cats-making sure to follow their feeding schedule and cleaning out their litter box. I have a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education. I worked with children 6 weeks to 5 years old for over 12 years. Which means I have lots of patience, love, and understanding. I have been lucky to be able to stay home with our daughter the last five years. But I am ready to make my way back into part-time work. I believes pets are our family and I will treat yours like mine. It would be a honor to help care for and love on them. I am currently a stay at home mom. My daughter is in preschool three days a week and starting kindergarten in the fall. So I have flexibility in my schedule. At the moment I am available Monday, Wednesday, & Friday 9am-12:30pm, and flexible Thursdays and weekends. I can do drop ins, hangout time, playtime, walks, and lots of snuggles and pets. At the moment I am not able to board any dogs or cats. My sweet boy was attacked in his foster home and still learning to trust other dogs again. I am comfortable come to your house to care for your pets.
“Ace was wonderful with our kitty. Attentive, caring, and communicated a lot along the way. Didn’t shy away from having to give him insulin. I would absolutely use them again for cat sitting!”
“Joseiris did a fantastic job! She was extremely prompt and attentive to detail, and my kitties adored her. One of my cats in particular is usually quite shy with new people, and sitters have a hard time getting a pic of him to send me. But he was fully playing with her, I got many pics! They can clearly sense that she's their friend. I'll definitely be hiring her again!”
“Deborah was amazing and took fantastic care of my cats. It was such a relief to know that they were well taken care of while I was away and she went above and beyond not only with them but with other areas around the house as well. She was great at keeping in touch and providing photos. I felt safe leaving my fur babies with her and would 1000% recommend.”
“I cannot recommend Caroline enough. It can be difficult for me to leave my girls with a new sitter because one of them is very shy and refuses to eat. Caroline went above and beyond, crawling under the bed to hand feed Clementine. I would trust her with any future booking and can’t thank her enough for her dedication and time.”
“I instantly felt like my kitties were in good hands! Kaitlen was very accommodating and super sweet with my cats. Great sitter! Definitely will recommend and ask again in the future! 😃”
About: All my life I’ve had a variety of different animals all including dogs, cats, birds, turtles, rabbits, etc. You name it, I have owned it. In some time spans all at the same time. I would love to take all this experience that I was fortunate enough to obtain throughout the years and bring it to your home! I am currently enrolled at the Western New England University. At the time being as I am on summer break I am looking for something to do to take up all this newly acquired time. As well as make some extra money to go towards my tuitions. Since I have a love for animals I thought this was the perfect opportunity for me. At the moment I currently have 4 dogs, 3 cats, 2 rabbits and a cocktail. As you can imagine yes they can certainly be a handful but I couldnt imagine my life without them. Each and everyone being on a schedule of their own which is always never a problem.
“Amy took wonderful care of our kittens, sent regular updates, played with them, and clearly loved them! She made traveling so much easier knowing our beloved kitties were in great hands. She will definitely be our go-to sitter, couldn’t recommend any more highly!”
About: I’ve cared for cats my whole life, including my own Siamese who lived to 15. I’m gentle, patient, and understand feline moods — from playful to shy. I keep litter boxes spotless, follow feeding routines closely, and make sure each cat feels safe, calm, and loved.
“I was lucky to find this wonderful family right before heading out on vacation, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very start, communication was clear, prompt, and professional. They were reliable and stuck to the agreed schedule, which I truly appreciated. My dog a 5 month old Standard Poodle who’s a giant ball of mischief connected with them right away. It’s clear they have tons of experience and, most importantly, a genuine love for animals. I had originally booked someone else who canceled last minute with a silly excuse… but honestly, I’m glad it happened because it led me to the right people. They deserve all the stars. Highly recommend!”
“I cannot recommend Wen enough. My husband and I were gone for a few days, and Wen came in twice a day to feed our 2 cats. He fed them and played with them and sent photos of them looking very content. He cleaned the litter box and he did some additional chores around the house. He even encountered an unexpected crisis and he was able to avert that without a problem. We missed them terribly, but we were comforted by the fact that Wen was taking such good care of them.”
About: My very first job was working with dogs. I’ve always had a passion for the fur babies! I have a 5 year old pit bull who absolutely loves making new pup friends and a 12 year old daughter who adores all animals! I work Monday-Friday between 9am-5pm but make sure your fur baby is tended to before and after work just as I do my own :) I have a fenced in yard which helps make sure they have lots of space for running around. During the daytime hours while I’m away, the dogs are kept safe in separated areas of the house but are always left with a comfy bed, food and toys. The dogs have free roam of the house during the day and are either kenneled (if crate trained) or separated when not being watched directly. Dogs are let out in the fenced in yard multiple times a day and are given tons of attention :)
“Amazing service, I was out for a week for work and Hannah make a trip everyday to check on my cat so I don't have to worry about it much.. Really appreciative of her help. Very affordable price and, good communication, impressive service all around. Definitely will call her back for her service.”
“Have used Audrey to watch my babies many times. She is always great with them! She has great communication, photos of your pets, and I completely trust her with my cats! She’ll continue to be my go-to for a sitter!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I am loving and have compassion. Every time I meet a new dog they can sense the good energy from me. ( I can’t update my schedule timing but it’s Monday- Friday 5-10pm) and Saturday-Sunday ( 9am-10pm) I am currently working full-time.

“We have loved working with Tricia! Very flexible, understanding, and affordable. She went the extra mile for our senior dog. Can’t wait to book the next visit for our dog!”
“Keith and Ashley were both extremely kind, informative and accommodating. This was my first time using Rover so I was grateful to find someone who could talk me through the process. Their questions on his care were very thoughtful and showed Keith and Ashley truly care about the animals that will be in their home. I had no worries leaving my dog with them, and he was wagging his tail as soon as I pulled up to their house for his second visit!”
“Paul is amazing with my dog and has always been flexible and supportive of what we need. My dog gets tons of enrichment when with him and I would recommend him without hesitation”

“This was my first time booking with Vassu. Vassu was wonderful with my dog, Maddie. Maddie enjoyed her large fenced in yard, including discovering her dog door. Maddie was also spoiled with walks, dog toys, and the company of Vassu's dog Ninja. Vassu shared pictures with me through out Maddie's stay. Vassu was professional and made my first time experience with the Rover App a comfortable and enjoyable experience. I will definitely use Vassu in the future. Maddie and I thank Vassu, Ninja, and her family for all the love you gave her while she stayed.”
“Russ and Jan were amazing with our dog Bailey! They sent daily pictures and updates. They were so kind to work around my work schedule and be so flexible. Every night Bailey came home she was zonked from having so much fun! Bailey looks forward to going back again!”

About: Hi there! I’m so glad you’re here. As a lifelong dog lover and work-from-home professional, I’ve created a cozy, peaceful space where pups can feel right at home while their humans are away. I only host one dog at a time (unlike many petsitters), so your pup will be treated like family and get my full attention (and all the belly rubs they deserve). I specialize in anxious pups who do not like being with other dogs and do not like being alone - I keep my pup clients as close as they like and give them as much attention as they prefer. My husband and I have two children, 8 and 10 years old, who are very gentle and loving with dogs. We treat our guest pups like they were are own while they’re with us! All our doggy guests are welcome to make themselves at home—on the couch, in the sunny spots, wherever they’re happiest, I do not confine them to one room/zone of the house - no pet gates here! I have a large, unfenced backyard with a dog run for zoomies and potty breaks and we love getting out for walks too. I also have experience with senior dogs and administering medications, so if your pup needs a little extra TLC, they’re in good hands. If you’re looking for a quiet, cozy home-away-from-home where your dog will be loved and spoiled, I’d love to be their sitter! Please note: unfortunately we have an allergy in our home to short-haired shedding dogs and can only accept long-haired (hypoallergenic) dogs :) I'm home all day to spend time with your pup and treat them like they were my own! My goal is to make your dog feel like they’re still at home, ensuring they experience joy and companionship until you return. I will send regular updates and photos to reassure you that your furry friend is thriving and enjoying their time. We have a large un-fenced backyard with a run hooked-up for your pup to spend lots of time outside. We also love to take walks down our street and at the local park. If your pup has some leash aggression with other dogs, we can walk them in our large private backyard to ensure they get exercise but without the stress other dogs may cause. If they’re house trained they do not need to be crated unless it’s their preference. In the house, I allow our doggy friends on furniture (unless you specify otherwise) and in all rooms of my home. They will not be separated in a different room or crated, unless you specify otherwise.
“Angie was fantastic! I needed a last minute day care sitter for my dog while I had an event in the city near by, and she was able to accommodate my early morning pick ups/late night drop offs, and was even able to do it herself since I didn’t have a vehicle. I got constant updates, and my dog was super happy and excited to see angie each morning! Highly recommend!”
“Although it was my pup’s first time & she was super anxious, Allison was very patient with her & made her feel comfortable during her visit. She sends frequent updates & is very pleasant to talk to. Definitely recommend!”
About: Your pet is not a guest in our house, it’s a loved family member for life! We individually your pet’s care based on its preferences and habits. I am a pet lover working from home who loves the company and snuggles. My kids are crazy about dogs and love them dearly also. We live in a beautiful home with a big fenced in yard but do take the dog(s) out daily to explore in the woods and have fun!
“I had a wonderful experience with Karen. She watched my 9 week old puppy and provided me with updates. Karen was also flexible. I had to change my drop-off and pick-up time during one of the days that she watched my puppy; and Karen made it work for me. I's super thankful.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and they are part of family. They just make everything better. We have a Bernese Mountain dog of our own who is a very spoiled guy I currently work at home and my office window looks right into yard so if the pups are outside playing I can see them at all times. I have a fenced yard. They are pretty much allowed to roam the whole house. Sleep on the bed, couch, wherever is comfortable for them

About: I have had pets my whole life and have been trusted to care for them consistently. Having 2 of my own dogs and many reptiles/amphibians, my care for pets goes deeper than most. I am currently working on becoming credentialed as a NP so I am no longer working a full time job, making me free almost any day. I have a fenced in yard with 2 friendly dogs but am also available to come to your home as needed! I have a home of my own as well so I know the importance of keeping the home safe and clean for our little friends.
About: I am an elementary physical education teacher who plays a lot of sports and loves to hang out with friends and family. I love playing and taking care of dogs. When I was younger I first started to dog sit for a few friends when they go out of town for the week/weekend, but now I enjoy giving all of my free time an attention to dogs. I love to run with dogs and play with them in the yard or at parks and see the smile on their face when they are playing with their toys! I am flexible with cancellations and any specific requests you have. Reach out if you have any questions! I would love to give your dog a mini vacation!!!! I am a very active person who likes to keep busy. I work during the week and are free in the early morning and afternoon. I am comfortable in new settings and can keep routines and rules that are had in the house. I can slowly build trust with the dog and have them find their comfort with me!

About: I grew up with my grandparents farm and a passion for all animal care! With having everything from dachshunds and labs to everything in between, rabbits and birds all alike! What sets me apart is my patience and passion for all the beautiful fur babies we all love. I currently am in school Tuesday and Wednesday nights 5-7, so I have plenty time to devote to your pups and all of their needs! I care for dogs with staying on schedule with walk time to feeding time, with proper crate time if need be and more than enough attention.
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my deep dedication to providing personalized care tailored to each pet's needs. I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention and patience. I excel at establishing a safe, nurturing environment that helps pets feel comfortable and loved in their owners' absence. Beyond standard pet care, I bring exceptional attention to detail, ensuring pets maintain their routines, whether it's administering medication, feeding on a precise schedule, or providing stimulating activities to keep them happy and healthy. What truly makes my services unique is that I view pet care as not just a job but an opportunity to serve the community. As a mother of two teenagers, I involve my children in learning how to responsibly care for animals under my guidance. This helps them understand the value of compassion, empathy, and giving back to others by treating pets with the same love and respect we would our own family members. Together, we aim to provide peace of mind to pet owners by treating their furry family members as our own. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily and weekly routine. As someone who juggles multiple responsibilities, I prioritize creating a structured schedule that allows me to provide attentive, consistent care to the pets I look after. Each day, I plan my tasks around the specific needs of the pets in my care, ensuring their feeding, walks, playtime, and any special requirements—like medication or grooming—are handled on time. My flexibility and time-management skills allow me to accommodate even last-minute requests, providing peace of mind to pet owners with busy lives. Incorporating pet care into my routine has also been an invaluable way to teach my children about responsibility and compassion. They often assist me with simple tasks under my supervision, giving them a sense of community involvement while allowing me to maintain a high standard of care for each pet. This integration of pet care into my daily life isn’t just a responsibility—it’s a passion that aligns perfectly with my desire to make a positive impact on both pets and their owners. Caring for pets in their own homes is a responsibility I take very seriously. I strive to provide a seamless experience that maintains the pet’s usual routine and ensures their comfort and safety in a familiar environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I begin by thoroughly understanding their specific needs, including feeding schedules, exercise preferences, playtime activities, and any medical or behavioral requirements. I ensure that every detail is followed precisely to keep pets happy and stress-free. During each visit, I prioritize interactive care, whether that’s engaging in their favorite games, taking them for walks, or simply providing companionship. For pets requiring additional attention, such as seniors or those with special needs, I bring patience and care to ensure they remain calm and comfortable. I also treat my clients’ homes with the utmost respect. I maintain a clean and organized space, follow any provided instructions, and ensure the home is secure when I leave. My goal is to not only care for the pets but also provide peace of mind to their owners, knowing their furry family members and home are in trusted hands.
About: I have done both walking and house sitting for family and neighbors for five years, and have worked with and am comfortable handling both large and small dogs. I grew up owning dogs, including a shitzu mix, a poodle mix, and a shelter girl of unknown breed. While all but one of the dogs I have owned were under 20 pounds, most of my history in pet sitting has been with has been with dogs in the 30-70 pound range, including labs, huskies, and a pit bull mix as my most frequent clients. I have experience with owning a fear reactive dog, but my comfort with taking care of them will be on a case by case basis. I also have experience with training young dogs for crating, potty training, and leash training I am currently exclusively self employed and have a flexible schedule with my income sources, so I am available most days and times of the week At this time I am only able to provide care in my clients home, I am unable to provide boarding due to limited space in my house I will work with owners to maintain your pets normal schedule, including feeding and walks. I am comfortable crating and using alternate feeders or feeding styles as needed Dogs will never be outside unattended, and will be kept on leash or in fenced in yards unless the owner specifically requests that I do otherwise. Cats will not be taken outside for any reason unless requested by owners. All animals will receive a significant amount of play and/or pet time during each visit, assuming the animal is comfortable with and enjoying it For drop ins, I will provide at least one update per visit including pictures. For continuous house sitting, as my standard I will provide at least three updates per day (morning, mid day, and afternoon/evening) with at least one photo per update. If you would like more or less updates, just let me know and I am fully willing to work with you to get you the amount of contact desired
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud dog sister with experience caring for pups of all sizes. I’ve handled post-surgery care, I make dog treats, and dream of opening a doggy daycare.

This gives me plenty of weekday flexibility for drop-ins and dog walks. On days I’m not working, I’m fully available to give your pets the attention and care they need! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I’m attentive, patient, and experienced with dogs of all sizes, including those needing extra care.

“I am so happy to have found Sarah! I had a German shepherd mix who is an anxious mess. Sarah spent so much time during our meet and greet to make sure she understood Maizi and felt comfortable. Sarah is thoughtful, caring, patient and great communicator. I am looking forward to continue working with her.”
About: I have been walking and caring for my own personal animals - 2 dogs, cat, bird, hamsters since I was 5 years old. I also have been dog sitting and walking for numerous neighbors and friends in the area. I work during the day a full-time job. I am available early in the morning and after 4:00pm during the week. I am available on the weekends anytime of the day. I have a fenced in backyard that my 4 year old Brittany Spaniel, Maggie loves to run around and play ball. It is completely fenced in so she can't get out. I love to be outside playing with my dog and bring her on 3+ walks a day around town and at the local park.
“Shayla has walked my dog Yogi twice now, and she has been great each time! Our meet and greet went really well, and when it rained on their walk, Shayla took the time to clean Yogi's paws and dry him off. I loved seeing the photos from their walk and playtime on the Rover Card. I look forward to using her again!”
About: I have been a pet owner since I was in my 20s. Over the years I have rescued a number of animals in need, both dogs and cats. I have also helped friends with their animals, including taking them to the vet and watching them when their owners were out of town. With my own dog, we have a routine that includes multiple walks per day, as well as at least one car ride. I believe in following a pet's routine. I am free in the summer and on the weekends and in the evenings. It all depends on what someone needs in a person caring for their pet. I believe in following what a pet owner needs for the comfort of their animal. Depending on the need of your animal, I can take care of walks, bringing them to the park, feeding them, and whatever else they need.
About: My very first job was working with dogs. I’ve always had a passion for the fur babies! I have a 5 year old pit bull who absolutely loves making new pup friends and a 12 year old daughter who adores all animals! I work Monday-Friday between 9am-5pm but make sure your fur baby is tended to before and after work just as I do my own :) I have a fenced in yard which helps make sure they have lots of space for running around. During the daytime hours while I’m away, the dogs are kept safe in separated areas of the house but are always left with a comfy bed, food and toys. The dogs have free roam of the house during the day and are either kenneled (if crate trained) or separated when not being watched directly. Dogs are let out in the fenced in yard multiple times a day and are given tons of attention :)
About: I have grown up with dogs & cats and began taking care of my family, friends and coworkers pets when I was in high school. I’ve worked with seniors, puppies, and larger dog breeds like Great Pyrenees, Great Dane, and Newfoundland’s but have a special place in my heart for dachshunds. I am home all week so pups can spend as much time outside as they want. For walks, early mornings and late nights are welcome. I am usually available during holidays as well. Depending on the need of your pet I will be able to accommodate most asks. Crating, training, hiking, giving medications, giving baths, meal time, cuddle time or anything else you would need I can help with!
“Absolutely amazing dog walker. She is flexible, considerate, and just an all around great person that our dog loves. She is a bargain for sure! I would expect her to charge more for how great she is! She will definitely be our go to dog walker.”

I can care for pets at my clients house by maintaining a boundary in where the dogs or cats are supposed to be. As well as set up a little place where they can be at so I can watch them and play.

“Sandra was very accommodating and welcoming. This was our first experience with having someone other than family care for Chase. He seemed at ease and well cared for. We will definitely rebook with Sandra and cannot thank her enough for making this process easy.”
“This was the first boarding experience for my 2 year old fur baby and it could not have gone better. Heather and Norman are the BEST! They were very accommodating and commutative. Rita LOVED her time in their home. It truly was her home away from home. I will definitely be using Heather and Norm in the future. Thank you guys for everything!”

“Summer is the best of the best. She took such good care of our two pups and when one of our pups arthritis started to act up, she loved him and took care of him like he was her own. She was absolutely incredible and we will most certainly be rebooking and I would highly recommend Summer to watch anyone’s pups.”

About: I have had pets my whole life and have been trusted to care for them consistently. Having 2 of my own dogs and many reptiles/amphibians, my care for pets goes deeper than most. I am currently working on becoming credentialed as a NP so I am no longer working a full time job, making me free almost any day. I have a fenced in yard with 2 friendly dogs but am also available to come to your home as needed! I have a home of my own as well so I know the importance of keeping the home safe and clean for our little friends.
“Morgan was super helpful when I needed a sitter on my road trip! She was so good with Molly and helped out extra since Molly wasn’t feeling the best on my trip and eating irregularly”
About: Your pet is not a guest in our house, it’s a loved family member for life! We individually your pet’s care based on its preferences and habits.

“Austin was fantastic about communicating both before and during our dog’s stay. He was great with her medications and making sure she was taken care of so we didn’t have to worry about her. She was one of the family while she was there. She’ll definitely be back”
“We had a great experience with Karen & Jeremy! They took care of our dog, Nori, for six days, and everything went wonderfully. They were very kind, welcoming, and clearly love dogs. Nori did very well at their house and came home happy and well cared for. We felt comfortable knowing she was in good hands and would absolutely use Karen & Jeremy again.”
