“Jennifer welcomed our dog Maggie into her home for several days while we were away. I felt comfortable with Jennifer from our first conversation; she has extensive experience as a Vet Tech, but is also friendly and kind. Maggie was treated like part of Jennifer’s family and was well cared for during her stay. I am so glad we found her and look forward to working with her again!”
“Excellent They were wonderful hosts our dog is older.. 14 yrs they accomodated her by letting her sleep in their bed. we were emsiled photos during her stay. very nice touvh. Joge & Norma”
“We had a really great experience and Nicole took such great care of Mia. Scheduling was easy, the meet and greet went very well. We received pictures and updates of Mia several times for a one day stay. Nicole also took Mia for several walks. Mia is an indoor dog and she definitely received a good amount of outdoor exercise time and indoor down time. Nicole has a 2 year old son who also loves dogs and got along very well with Mia. Nicole and her husband are such nice couple; warm and genuine. We feel comfortable that Mia is in good hands. Mia was happy and very relaxed when we picked her up. Nicole was also really great about accommodating our schedule as we were running late on pick up. We did not have a good experience boarding Mia at a kennel and found Rover. This was the first time we tried out a dog sitter through Rover. I can't say enough about how wonderful Nicole was with Mia. For an in-home, loving, no-crate experience – it was a great stay for Mia and will we definitely be boarding Mia again with Nicole! Thanks, Nicole for taking care of Mia! ”
“Susan and Doug are the best! It's like dropping you child off with caretakers who love them and treat them like they are home. VERY HIGHLY RECCOMEND. Excellent communication too.”
“Anna-Julia took such great care of McSorley! She seems happy and clearly was walked a lot and fed well. This was our first Rover experience and we would absolutely reach out to Anna-Julia next time we need dog care. We are grateful for the love and care our pup had while we were away.”
“Amazing dog sitter! Reliable, caring, and great with our dog. We received updates while we were away, and it was clear our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”

“Eliot was wonderful! She was so good with our dog and even gave me some great tips on a type of lead that might be more comfortable for our dog and still prevent her from pulling. We will definitely use Eliot again if the need arises.”
“We needed a last minute sitter in the area and trusted Lisa with our dog - she gave our pup so much exercise, cuddles, and even played soothing music to help his anxiety and itching. He came home to us so happy and nurtured!”

“First time using Rover, and Eliot was wonderful. She has a ton of experience with animals and it was clear that my boys were well taken care of. Knowing I had a pro looking after my cats made my trip a lot more relaxing than it might’ve been otherwise. Her rave reviews tell you all you need to know. I will absolutely book her again.”
“Martha did a great job of looking after my cat Osiris while I was away for the holidays. She sent daily pictures as requested for my peace of mind, reached out promptly when there were any issues, and was very understanding and accommodating when my planned pickup time got a bit wobbly due to travel issues. Will definitely be booking again the next time I need a sitter.”
“I was so happy to find Jillian, as a sitter myself I have high standards and Jillian stepped up to the task. She followed all instructions left and sent detailed updates each day. Definitely felt at ease while I was on my trip, I came home to happy pups and a clean doggie room!! Highly recommend Jillian!!!”
About: I also offer cat sitting services in your home. I understand that cats thrive in their own environment, so I'll ensure they receive plenty of love and attention while you're away. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just some gentle cuddles, I’m here to keep your kitty friend comfortable and happy. Plus, I'll make sure their litter box is clean and their favorite toys are at the ready for some fun! Your cat will feel safe and content in their own space, and you can relax knowing they're in good hands.
About: I’ve always had a love for cats and animals in general. I grew up with two cats of my own and even fostered cats when I was younger, which helped me learn how to care for cats with different personalities and needs. I love how every cat has their own little personality, whether they’re playful, cuddly, shy, or more independent. I have experience with feeding, cleaning litter boxes, giving attention and affection, and making sure cats feel comfortable and safe in their own space. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I’ll treat your cat with the same love and care I would give my own.
“Melissa struck me as a mature, articulate, cheerful, and responsible adult. She did a wonderful job dropping in and taking care of my kitties and my home for 4 days. She also would’ve been available an extra day had my travel plans gone awry. Her communications and photos were timely and thorough. This trip was during a time of below zero temperatures outside, so it was nice to not worry about home/heat/freeze issues. My cats seem to have enjoyed her too. Thank you!”

“My other sitter backed out last minute to watch my 10 week old puppy and Susan gladly took him on short notice. She did a great job watching him and kept me updated with pictures. My puppy would be happy to go there again and I would recommend her to others.”

About: Recently moved to a cute farm house in Byfield. Great area for walking dogs. Dead end street with trails and brooks and reservoir close by.. I lLove to take my dog on hikes and walks on the beach. Have plenty of time to share my day with your pets. Can provide references from PA where I used to live. I have always owned dogs and cats and have no shame admitting my dog Charlie is my best friend. I would love to find a few regular customers who would like to meet up and make sure your and my dog like one another. I do like to have meet and greets at my house prior to accepting pet sitting or day care in my house. I believe I owe that to both your dog as well as mine. Hope you consider my services Thanks Missy Hello I’m an active person who loves to take dogs on long walks and hikes. Unfortunately my Dog is 13 and has slowed down drastically. I’ve loved animals since I’ve been a child and my dog Charlie is honestly my best friend. My property in Byfield is on a dead end street with beautiful trails along the stream or trails through the woods. Very quiet neighborhood with lots of puppy neighbors
“I couldn't be HAPPIER with our new dog sitters!!! Thank you so much for making this a GREAT experience. I was nervous to let anyone else watch my dog, and after our meet and greet, I was more secure. But after our first "daycare" experience, I"M HOOKED! Now we are excited about Aiko's extended stay coming up in the near future! THANK YOU!!!”

“Eliot was so great with my pug! She knew exactly how to care for him (like limiting outdoor time because it’s hot and hard for him to breathe). She also has helpful knowledge regarding food allergies in dogs! Potato had a great day and came back so happy (and so tired)!”
“Our experience with Lisa was great! 10/10 would work with her again. I have a very sweet and nervous senior dog. This was our first time meeting Lisa and when I picked up my pup I could tell she was relaxed and enjoyed her time. Lisa was communicative, kind and super easy to work with and she helped us out in a last minute pinch which was such a stress reliever. Thanks for the good vibes and great service, Lisa!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I have lots of experience with dog walking from my job. I take care of two beagles, an australian Shepherd, and a border collie mix while working in the summer. I might not be able to offer any special training, but I can assure you that your dog will be in good hands. What I offer is peace of mind and trust. I have a seasonal job which means I don't work in the winter. I have a very flexible schedule. Winter is a tough time of year for a lot of people. It can be hard to get out with your dog in the cold weather, but that's what I'm here for. I have limited availability in the summer - but it never hurts to ask. I will do my best to respond promptly! I have a dog of my own which means I know what it feels like to have to leave your pet. I will care for your pet like they are my own. I have toys for them, water and food bowls, and a cozy bed. I have a large yard with access to a wide-open field.
“Jillian is amazing, after booking she immediately reached out to me to clarify anything my dog might need. She was attentive to detail and treated my dog like her own. 10/10 would book again”

About: I grew up with two cats and have always been surrounded by animals, especially dogs. I have a strong love for pets and understand how I’m important it is for them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Throughout college, I have regularly helped care for my friends’ dogs, including providing walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they receive the attention, patience, and love they deserve. I am comfortable with different personalities and energy levels and will always treat your pet like they are my own. I am currently a college student on summer break, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. Right now, I work a part-time job Monday–Wednesday, but I will be fully done working in about a week and will have full availability to provide care, attention, and support for your pets. I enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors, and creating a routine, so pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I understand how important it is for pets to have consistency and attention, and I would love the opportunity to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I have a big back yard with lots of room to play and an air conditioned house. I’ll follow your pets routine and can be crated if needed!
“Melissa was great! She walked our two 70lb pit bulls Skye and Blue 4 days in a row. She was great communicating the times she was going to walk them and showing up on time. She sent pictures each walk with the map and distance of the walks. We would definitely hire Melissa again to walk Skye and Blue. Highly recommended!, Thank you Melissa!”
About: I know dogs need exercise, discipline, and affection. I know it can be challenging to find the right pet care that is trustworthy and reliable. I’ll do my best to give your pet the care they need! I am a massage therapist for part of the week and I homeschool my children when I’m not working. My schedule is somewhat flexible and I have extra time to fill here and there with pet care. I will feed, walk, or give your animals attention based on clients request and animals requirements. Whether it’s In the yard, taking them for a walk or just sitting petting them, I’ll give them what they need.
