“I was very nervous about leaving my dog with a boarder. I had only left her with relatives. Judy was very helpful. We did a meet and greet beforehand and she took care of my dog. Would definitely use again.”
“Awesome boarding experience. This was my second booking and it was a pleasure. I received pictures daily and prompt responses. I look forward to re-booking, knowing my pet is happy, safe and comfortable! Awesome sitter . Great experience!”
“One of my biggest stressors in life is having to leave my puppy dog behind during my extended travels, but my dog Walnut may have had more fun with Michael this time. Looking forward to the next stay. Thanks Michael.”
“The best sitter to book with! Xiaoying and her family are excellent and truly the sweetest! I had an overnight cat sitting service with them for a 7 nights and they sent me daily photos and videos and made sure to keep me updated! They also brought so many toys, a cat tree, and cat hideaway spots for my cat. My cat Lucki didn’t want to leave he really liked it there and it’s like his second home now😊 will definitely be rebooking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter or boarding service! ❤️”
“I am so satisfied with Alba’s dog sitting for my two dogs this past weekend! I have an almost four year old and a fourteen year old dog, and Alba cared for both of their different needs excellently. I received frequent updates without having to ask, and was able to meet her and visit her home before agreeing to let my dogs stay there. I felt at ease once I met her, and could see her love for dogs. She has a fenced in yard that even the smallest of dogs couldn’t escape through, and she lives in a walkable neighborhood with sidewalks. Right away, my two boys felt at home during our pre-visit. I will definitely be using Alba in the future, and would recommend her to anyone who is traveling and wants to leave their dogs in a safe, comforting, and loving home.”
“Pamela is amazing. She took such good care of Quinn I didn’t worry a second about how he was doing. She sent us so many pictures and videos of him having so much fun. She definitely treats every dog she cares for like her own.”
“Janine was great! She made Rory feel comfortable and took good care of her for a week while we were away. I got daily updates and would definitely have Rory stay with Janine again, which I know Rory would love.”
“My dog had a great time with Vanessa and her family, and she took really good care of him. She checked in each day and sent photos, which is always appreciated for peace of mind! Will definitely book with her again if we go away soon!”
“Kierra took excellent care of my old man. She gave him medication and fed him a special diet. I was very happy with her care and felt comfortable leaving my dog with her. Thank you!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every dog I look after. I treat them like my own—with love, patience, and respect for their routines. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, and I’m comfortable with both puppies and senior dogs. I understand that each dog has its own personality and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe and happy in my care. Since I’m not currently a dog owner, I pour all my energy and affection into the dogs I sit for. I also have a fenced yard, which gives dogs a secure place to play and relax. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep pet parents updated so they can feel confident while they’re away. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, and I make time for it on weekends and some weekday evenings. I’m usually available on weekends for boarding and daycare, and with advance notice, I can provide walks or care after 5:00 PM during the week. Since I don’t currently have a dog of my own, spending time with pets through Rover gives me the chance to enjoy their company and provide the attention they deserve. It’s something I look forward to fitting into my weekly routine, and I always plan my schedule carefully to give each dog quality care and attention. When caring for dogs in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I live in a house with a fenced yard, so dogs have a secure space to play and get fresh air. I stick to their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding, walking, playtime, and rest—based on their owner’s instructions. I keep a calm, clean environment and always give plenty of love and attention. For walks and weekend daycare, I focus on making the experience fun and stress-free. I tailor walks to each dog’s energy level and needs, whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer walk for exercise. I also pay close attention to leash safety, weather conditions, and staying in familiar areas unless otherwise requested. Whether in my home or out and about, your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority.
“I am absolutely so grateful to Vanessa and her family for taking such good care of Prince. They are wonderful. I was a bit nervous because it was going to be my first time leaving Prince overnight with other dogs. I didn’t know what to expect. But they were so reassuring and very clearly so good with all types of dogs. Prince is 1.25 years old and they gave me good insight and advice about his behavior. Very communicative through the whole week. And Prince did so well with the company and had a great time!! He was surrounded by love, cuddles, and attention. Will absolutely work Vanessa and family again if they are free the next time I’m going out of town!”
“Very helpful with my dogs transition in moving to New York. Very calm home my dog was able to relax. Great communication. Will definitely use Xavier again.”
“Michele was great, she took good care of Zuko and sent a ton of pictures. She was accommodating and flexible to his needs as well. Thank you to Michele for being a great sitter”
“Shushma was the best! Otto had such a great time that he didn't want to leave! We will definitely be rebooking with her. She was also great administering Otto's pills twice a day.”
“My Marley is always so happy and well cared for with Jonisha. This was his longest stay and he adjusted extremely well. This level of care gives me much comfort in leaving him with a sitter. My highest recommendation and appreciation!”

“Victoria did so well with our cats! They usually hide when they see new people, but I guess after doing a virtual meeting with her, they were very social when she came over! I’m so glad our girls trusted Victoria!”
“Karla was great and we can't thank her enough for taking great care of our cats on short notice. The cats are usually extremely shy around new people and will hide when they come in to the house. But they warmed up to Karla quickly and we got lots of pictures of happy cats being played with and entertained. A+++”
“Casey was amazing and made us feel completely comfortable leaving our cats in her care, she checked in daily, sent plenty of photos, spent time with them as well as taking the extra time to play with them. One of our cats is a little more skittish than the other and she put in the effort to make sure she was relaxed and comfortable. She’s very reliable and sweet would absolutely use her again in the future”
“Helena was amazing! She kept me updated and sent pictures of Zenitsu. I loved that her daughters were giving loving to my little guy in some of the photos. I will definitely book her (and her little helpers) again when I travel.”
“Ali is the best! Our cats love having her take care of them. Ali is super responsible and takes excellent care of our three kitties when we are away. She is trustworthy and accommodating. Thanks Ali!”
“Lisa as always has gone above and beyond for our cat Zorina. We have used Lisa in the past and continue to do so when planning a trip away. She never fails to amaze us with how much she just cares about our cat, and takes the effort to let you know all the details when she gives you updates daily. Can’t thank her enough”
“Kenny has looked after our cat Abby multiple times while we've been away and he always does a great job! He's super reliable and responsive. We highly recommend him. Thanks Kenny!”

“Kierra went above and beyond to make us feel safe leaving a hope alone with a Rover for the first time. She communicated effectively during every visit, took excellent photos, and took time to really provide Hope with the care and love we wanted. She played and sang to Hope, as well as kept her food and water clean and full. We told her she didn’t need to do the litter every day, but she did anyway. Kierra was respectful of the apartment complex and timely with returning our key. Heart of gold and a friend of animals indeed. She even helped us with extending booking (when we messed up 5 times), We couldn’t have had a better experience or human to take care of Hope (who is a rescue cat but had no issues warming up to kierra)”

“Nachay was very accommodating and made our first sitter experience a breeze! She sits a few dogs already so Bentley had friends to keep him company! We took a day trip out of the state and weather delays/traffic made us later than the scheduled pickup time but Nachay made it easy. She also sent us pictures throughout the day and kept in contact with us. Will definitely be looking to book again! Thank you so much for taking good care of Bentley :)”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always loved taking care of friend’s and family’s dogs! I love going for walks so I’m sure your pup will enjoy that! I’m available to board on all days of the week! I work in clinical research remotely so your dog will get lots of attention and will go for several walks throughout the day. There are no restrictions on drop off or pick up times. We live in a really quiet neighborhood so walks are peaceful! There’s a park where we can walk around and enjoy the outdoors. In our home, we have an open set up and would love for your dog to spend as much time with us as possible. But if your pup needs some alone time, we have a separate area for your pup to decompress. We have a 3 year old toddler who loves dogs! We’ve taught him how to pet pups gently and he loves giving treats! He won’t interact with your dog unless the dog initiates. He stays away from the food and water bowl.
“Alba greeted us warmly and made Max feel very comfortable. She kept in touch during the day, sending photos, and I knew Max was in good hands. I will definitely be using Alba again! Max had a great day 😊”
“Trying to find a great babysitter has been one of the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do especially since I own a large breed puppy! Those feelings changed after I met Vanessa and her family. They are the most loving family I’ve ever met! I felt very assured that my german shepherd puppy was in good hands. I cannot thank Vanessa enough for the amazing service she has provided!”
“kierra was wonderful. she took great care of queen while we were out for the day. she would constantly send us pictures to reassure us our dog was in great hands. even her children were great and loving to our dog. we will be using kierra again soon with no hesitation.”
“From the very start, Pamela made us very comfortable by inviting us to meet before sitting for Clare, which we didn’t feel was necessary. Her warmth and professionalism was the perfect combination. Upon arriving to her home, Pamela immediately made Clare feel like a member of her family, showing us around, giving us confidence Clare was in good hands! During Clare’s stay, we could tell she was having fun as Pamela sent photos of Clare lounging and videos of her enjoying her stay. When we picked Clare up, she was in no rush to leave! She clearly enjoyed her stay with Pamela and her husband. We look forward to calling on Pamela again!”

“Michelle was amazing with Milo! This was our first time leaving him with someone else, so I was a little nervous, but she made the whole experience so much easier and more comfortable. She was very attentive, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs, which gave me a lot of reassurance. I really appreciated the updates and how she made sure Milo felt safe and cared for. When I picked him up, he was happy and relaxed, which means everything to me as a dog mom. It was clear he was in good hands the entire time. The pickup and drop-off process was also smooth and convenient, which I loved. Overall, I had a great experience and would absolutely trust Michelle with Milo again!”
“Gloria and Deb were great. From our initial phone call when she asked me important questions about our dog, you can tell that Gloria takes the safety of your dog as her highest priority. Her house is well set up for a nice size group of dogs and it has a nice fenced in back yard. Gloria emailed me videos of our dog to ensure us he was doing well. And she texted questions when a decision about a treat needed to be made rather than just give him something that we were aware of. Her communication was excellent and our dog seemed very happy and tired after 7 hours with Gloria and deb. We will use again and we highly Recommend. Thanks”

“Karla did an amazing job walking my dog, Jr. She brought along her dog, Woody, and the two dogs had a fantastic time together. It was clear that Karla is caring, attentive, and great with dogs.

As a lifelong animal lover and experienced caregiver, pets are an integral part of my everyday life. My home is not just a place for my own beloved fur baby—it's a welcoming, safe, and nurturing environment for any pet in my care. Because of my personal commitment to animal well-being, I’m home the majority of the time, which allows me to provide constant supervision, companionship, and routine check-ins throughout the day. When boarding with me, your pet will experience a comfortable, secure, and engaging home environment—both indoors and outdoors. Inside, pets enjoy a cozy, climate-controlled space where they are treated like family. I maintain a clean and organized home, with designated pet-friendly areas for rest, play, and feeding. Whether your fur baby prefers quiet time or interactive play, I tailor the indoor experience to meet their individual needs, including any special care routines or accommodations. Outdoors, your pet will have access to a fully fenced-in yard—perfect for safe exploration, exercise, and fresh air. The space is ideal for dogs who love to run, play fetch, or simply lounge in the sun. Supervised outdoor time is incorporated into the daily routine, ensuring plenty of opportunities for physical activity and mental stimulation. In addition, I have a friendly, well-socialized dog who can serve as a playful companion if your pet enjoys the company of others. However, I also understand that not all pets are social butterflies, and I am fully prepared to keep them separated to ensure a calm and stress-free environment for everyone. Whether your pet thrives on companionship or prefers their own space, I adapt to what makes them most comfortable and secure.
About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship. I’m very attentive when it comes to routines, comfort, and I always prioritize safety and patience. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important trust is when caring for someone’s beloved animal. I’m open to caring for pets of any age or disability, and providing as much attention as needed. I have a college classes(online and face to face) throughout the week and a part time job( mainly 10-15 hours) but i mainly stay at home so i am able to pay attention to your pet at all times. If you’re comfortable with it i love to take them with me for small errands or nice views just so they are not left alone at home. I live in a very walkable town. Your pet will be able to roam freely around the house if needed, and/or have their own space if they are shy. I’m capable of moving things around for comfortability. Pets will never be left unattended for long periods of time. I don’t own additional dogs or cats but i have rabbits kept in their own secure caged space. I can and WILL follow all care instructions. I would be happy to provide updates and photos at any time.
“Gloria was outstanding!! Our three dogs looked ecstatic in the videos that she sent twice a day as she did dog walking and home visits! We will definitely have her back again—responsible and wonderful and warm with our dogs. Thank you!!”
About: I have pet sat and walked for many family friends over the years, have 7 years of experience as a Veterinary Assistant in both general practice and emergency since 2019, graduated with a BS in Pre-Veterinary medicine from the University of Massachusetts Amherst in 2023, and am American Red Cross Certified in Cat and Dog First Aid. During my time working I have had hands on experience administrating medications, and working with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. I’ve had cats since I was born and have had my dog since 2019. I absolutely love dog sitting and getting to meet and take care of everyone’s babies like my own! :) Pet care is currently my part-time work for this summer! I’m going back to school in September for my Radiologic Technologist program. Still need my cat and dog time though! I am very knowledgeable in both dog and cat body language, how to care for them, can give medications (pills, topical ointments, certain injections), and bathe if needed if given the proper supplies! I will always make sure your pet is safe, whether it be in the outside or in the home (locking doors, checking the yard, etc).
About: I have dog care experience as I have a dog with me, labrador pitbull mix and he can be quite a handful sometimes but I always get him in control and never in a negative way, they're dogs, they make mistakes, thy love us no matter what so give them a chance and be patient, I treat every animal as a friend, if my dog seems uncomfortable, I set him a pillow or a blanket if he's cold, if he won't eat his food, I'll find healthy alternatives to add so he will eat, he never leaves my side so I know he loves me, I've had situations where other people's dogs end up liking me more then their owner and that's not my intention, but I just love them so much and I feel like they can sense it, so they become extremely sweet with me
About: I worked at a veterinary clinic for over 5 years. I love all animals no matter the age, gender or size. I look forward to playing and spending time with your pet and giving them all the love I have to offer, I would prefer all dogs to be vaccinated, have proper identification and preferably be neutered. Any unusual requests require a fee which can range anywhere from ten to fifteen dollars. I will walk,play, and feed your pet however you will have to supply the bed, food, toys , and any other items required to occupy and/or keep your pet entertained, happy and comfortable. I look forward to meeting your special one and welcoming them into the family. There is special discounts for bonded or multiples. I offer specials for clients that are recommended or new. Please contact me for more info. Why I love dog sitting: It is a great way to bond with a creature that has endless love and compassion. My experience administering medication: No medication of any kind. I work from home full time so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet. I have the freedom to walk away and give your pet attention and any other necessities they may need. I follow all requests and am able to separate pets if necessary. I have a crate available if needed. I watch your pet with a keen eye and able to offer comfort and love. If multiple pets are in house, I will monitor at all times.

She returned happy and calm! Wonderful experience and would highly recommend!”
“I am absolutely so grateful to Vanessa and her family for taking such good care of Prince. They are wonderful. I was a bit nervous because it was going to be my first time leaving Prince overnight with other dogs. I didn’t know what to expect. But they were so reassuring and very clearly so good with all types of dogs. Prince is 1.25 years old and they gave me good insight and advice about his behavior. Very communicative through the whole week. And Prince did so well with the company and had a great time!! He was surrounded by love, cuddles, and attention. Will absolutely work Vanessa and family again if they are free the next time I’m going out of town!”

She suggested a meet and greet so that I can see where he will be staying and he was able to sniff around so he wouldn't be in a shock when I drop him off. She's very friendly and she sent me videos and pictures throughout his entire stay with her. She loved my Blue as if he was her own pet. She has a repeat customer in me! Thank you again Vanessa!”
