“Stephanie took such good care of our 12 year old yorkipoo, when we were out of the country for three weeks. She constantly sent updates and pics to show how he was doing. She even gave his meds every day and even got more meds from my vet as I didn’t give her right amount of meds. I cannot recommend Stephanie enough as a pet sitter. I will definitely use her again.”

My goal is to make every visit stress-free, giving your pets the care they deserve and giving you peace of mind while you’re away. ❤️

“Beka has been fantastic with our 4, almost 5 month dog. He had no training prior to 4 month and the work Becka has done with him is incredible. He listens to commands and is potty trained now. Our dog loves her and she seems to adore him. She went out of her way to water my rabbit when he was out of water and also accommodates schedule changes when she can.”
“As a spur of the moment idea, that I had heard about through a friend in CA, I contacted Rover and had a good, instant, comforting response. The care giver was great and did send picures and I was very comforted. Thanks to her.”
About: Hi, I've been around pets for the last 15ish years with that I've learned that not all dogs are the same and will react the same way towards everyone. I have worked with dogs who were previously in shelters, nervous dogs, fearful dogs, and anxious dogs. I have experience dog sitting small and big dogs. I have potty trained my own dogs and have helped friends potty train as well. I'm comfortable with bathing, brushing, feeding, walking, and interacting with dogs. I have worked with special needs dogs and am comfortable changing their diapers, applying creams and ointments, and applying wraps or bandages if needed. I'm comfortable feeding, cleaning litter boxes, and brushing cats. I've also taken care of small reptiles like bearded dragons and geckos, as well as birds like cockatiels and parakeets. I just moved to the area and have flexible availability. I am available for drop ins and walks throughout the day. No time is too early or too late. I'm open to last minute drop ins or walks as long as it is communicated. I'm great at sticking to your pets eating schedule as well as establishing routines if needed. I'm able to clean up after your pet, feed them, interact with them, and stimulate their brain as well.
“Excellent and thorough! Clearly loves dogs and cats. She was on time and did everything I listed for my pets. The Rover site was easy to use and it gave me quick access to pick Summer as our sitter. Will definitely have her back!”
“When we were planning a trip out of the country, we wanted someone who was serious and committed to doing the best job they could for our cats and our house. We found this in Michael, who quickly earned the love and trust of Bagheera & Laska, our 2 cats. They are so different in personality and temperament it's hard to believe. Michael quickly won over the shy, cautious Laska, and became Bagheera's best buddy for playing and walks around the yard. He's not a snuggly cat, but he trusted Michael enough to even sit in his lap. We also felt that we could completely rely on Michael to do anything that was needed. When we got back, the plants had been watered, the house was as we left it (messy but clean), and the cats were happy. We trust Michael and highly recommend him.”

About: My dog passed and I miss her company! So I love having visitors to keep me company and play with while working from home :) Work from home, I'm free to walk the dogs first thing the the morning, around noon and anytime in the evening and spend the whole day with them if needed :) Quiet home, no children, no smoking, no other dogs or cats - just fish n two birds, half way fenced Yard, but very safe. We can walk around the neighborhood, there is a park down the street as well and the back yard.
About: Hi! I’m Haley, a stay at home mom and lifelong animal lover who understands that pets are family not just animals. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, so you can enjoy your time knowing they’re in caring hands. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up in a family that rescued animals, and my mom has worked in the veterinary field her entire career. Before becoming a stay-at-home mom to my three little ones, I spent years working in animal hospitals, where I gained experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. That background taught me how important patience, consistency, and attention to detail are when it comes to caring for animals. At home, we have three playful kittens and a friendly dog, so your pet will be staying with someone who truly understands their needs. We also have a large backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and get plenty of exercise. I know every pet is different, which is why I do my best to stick to their normal routine. Whether that means feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, walks, cuddle time, or simply giving them space to relax! I’ll care for your pet the way you do at home. I believe keeping their routine as consistent as possible helps reduce stress and makes them feel comfortable. When your pet stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and updates while you’re away so you always know they’re happy and well cared for. I know how hard it can be to trust someone with your furry family member, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’d be honored to care for your pet and provide them with a safe, loving home away from home. I am currently a stay at home mom to four children, I am available almost 24/7 to be able to care for your pet, and have a very flexible schedule I have a decent sized yard, it is not fenced in but your pet will never be left unsupervised outside. I am a firm believer that pets are family and will be treated as such. There is no limitations on where your pet will be allowed to go in my home. They want to jump up on the couch for some snuggles? Go right ahead. Feel more comfortable at night in my room? Come right on in. The way your pet is cared for at your home is how they will be treated here.
“Thank you, Jessica. It was a relief to have my older pup in such loving, capable hands. Thank you for sending photos along throughout the day. It helped take my mind off of my surgical day.”
“Tanya was amazing!!! We were in Cambridge for a family reunion and Tanya kept our puppy during the day. He had a great time with her (and her dogs). She sent pics and videos throughout the day. We would definitely book her again.”
“Can’t thank Sydney enough for a wonderful day at her home for Aurora! Everything was perfect, with plenty of room to run outside and enjoy the outdoors. Even made a new friend! Can’t wait to be back again soon.”

I have a fenced in back yard that sits on 2 acers of land. I have different rooms in my house to crate or keep your dog if it needs to be away from my dogs.
“We had a great experience with Brittany. She took great care of our 8 month old puppy, she made sure to get an idea of his schedule and get an idea of what our puppy was like before we dropped him off. At the end of the day when we picked up our pup, we could tell he had a great day filled with lots of care, fun, and attention.”

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for about 10 years now, through my friends, family, neighbors and my own 2 puppies! I’m a college athlete who’s very active, so I’m happy to run/play and keep energetic dogs exercised while also making sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for! Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine, caring for my own two dogs! However, I’m a college student now, who lives an hour away from home, but I’m back for weekends and have plenty of free time to care for pets! I provide a safe, fun environment for pets. I have a fenced yard for running around outside, and two friendly dogs who would love to make friends! I closely supervise pets and will follow all instructions/special requests strictly from owners!
About: **We are unfortunately unable to host unfixed dogs in our home for boarding/doggy daycare.** I have grown up with dogs and cats and have spent many years caring for them throughout my life. I currently have a senior dog I adopted from a local shelter and two younger dogs I’ve helped raise since they were puppies. Over the years I’ve learned how different each stage of life can be, from potty training puppies to supporting the slower pace of senior dogs. I’ve also cared for family pets while their owners were out of town, including both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with dogs of all energy levels. Some love to play and stay active, others just want to relax and be near someone. I’m happy with both. I also have experience with raw feeding routines and daily care. My main focus is always making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule as a stay at home mom which allows me to give consistent attention throughout the day. I homeschool my children but I’m still able to fully care for the pets in my home and keep up with walks, drop ins, and boarding. My days are structured in a way that allows me to adjust as needed so each pet gets timely and attentive care. Pets in my care can enjoy walks in your yard or around your neighborhood depending on what they are comfortable with. We also have a spacious yard that gives dogs plenty of room to move around and stretch their legs. Our home is calm and family oriented. Pets are always supervised and included in daily life. I make sure they feel comfortable, settled, and part of the environment while they are here.

About: Hello, I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16. Mainly my own and my neighbors animals. I have had nothing but good reviews from them all!

I have a single dog at home that is very friendly to keep your doggies company. If you have specific needs for your animals then I will make sure to follow them no matter what.
“Meeting Stephanie for the first time was great. We are new to the area and she welcomed us to Oxford. Stephanie made our dog Bella feel comfortable to her house,yard and her dog before we left her. This was a great experience for us in such a short notice.”

“Stephanie took such good care of our 12 year old yorkipoo, when we were out of the country for three weeks. She constantly sent updates and pics to show how he was doing. She even gave his meds every day and even got more meds from my vet as I didn’t give her right amount of meds. I cannot recommend Stephanie enough as a pet sitter. I will definitely use her again.”
About: Ive been caring for dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. I’ve always had multiple dogs in the house at a time. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from big to small, Seniors to puppies. I provide daily photos throughout your pets daily routine and tons of love I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of enough time to care for your fur baby. I believe all animals should be treated like they are you own even if they are temporary I live in a quiet cozy apartment with a big yard in the back. There is plenty of room for playtime and resting. Pets are welcome on all furniture
“Brittany and family were amazing with our pups! Daily status updates with pictures and on everyone I can just tell they had a blast. Will DEFINITELY be booking again!!”
“We love Melissa! Been repeat boarders with her, and my dog gets excited when we turn down her street. She has been great with my works trips and sometimes last minute scheduling changes.”
“Lacey was amazing with my fur babies, even my 55lbs of crazy lol. They both came home happy and calmer than I even expected, she needs to tell me her secret to calm my crazy girl lol. I will only be using Lacey for my fur babies care in the future!!”
“Daniela is an answer to a prayer for me. I had no one to help me with them if I wanted to go out of town. She was responsive and kind to my dogs. I hope I get a chance to take them to her again. I wish her the best in this endeavor in the future.”
About: I am an animal lover who has taken care of my own as well as friends and families pets for years. My family has cared for dogs, cats, chickens, goats, snakes, frogs, geckos, chinchillas. I am a stay at home mom, so my time is very flexible. I am able to keep pets to their daily schedules and routines. My property is ideal for a doggy vacay, we have a newly fenced in valley, a forest to explore, 2 dogs companions (can keep separate upon request), lots of squirrels to chase, and plenty to love to go around! I am able to provide an attentive home environment that a pet is used to.
“Elizabeth was an amazing sitter for my Pyrenees/Golden mix! I could tell he genuinely appreciated her company and will remember her forever now! She was very patient with him, as he struggles with stairs. Her communication was also excellent throughout. I was 1000 miles away but receiving pictures and daily updates really help assure me that Joni was having a nice time. Thanks again!!”
“Denise was absolutely fantastic. Our dog Winnie had a blast with her doggo. Denise was very responsive to any messages, sent daily pictures, and overall was great. Will definitely use her again for boarding as we travel!”
About: Throughout this process I'm excited to meet all types of dogs! I love all breeds and sizes! Home is equipped with a secured 6’ privacy fence around approx. 1 acre for maximum play time or lounging. We have an almost 1 year old dog named Maggie who is very sweet, submissive, and loves to play and have doggie friends. Your baby will have a great time with us in our home! From training to loving and play, walking and feeding, it comes naturally to me and I can't imagine my life not surrounded by dogs or animals in general. You can count on me to handle any quirks, and treat your pet like my own - spoiled with scratches and belly rubs and play time! I work from home Monday through Friday so I will be very attentive to your pup for the full day they are here! We can coordinate many different drop off or pick up times to make it convenient for you I plan to make your dog, puppy feel as comfy as possible whether that means playing, cuddling, walking or being admired from a distance. I also plan to pay attention to all instructions provided and making sure you feel comfortable with me caring for your little love.
“Lovely couple with a baby and a toddler. Buffy had to warm up to Parker, their German Shepherd but I hear it went well. Tyler and wife watched Buffy on a holiday, July 4th. They were very gracious when I requested an itinerary change. I felt like they were really attuned to Buff-dog. Will definitely ask again for their assistance.Highly recommend.”
“Tina was fantastic! She sent me text messages, pictures, and videos of my Boston Terrier, Lee Lee. Tina took Lee Lee to the local dog park for exercise and cuddled with her in the evenings. I don't think my dog missed me at all. I will definitely use Tina in the future.”
“Maggie was in excellent hands with Jodi. I received daily updates and pics. Communication with Jodi was clear and immediate. She was also very friendly and personable. I would definitely utilize Jodi's services again in the future.”
