“Whether your pup needs a place to stay for the night, the day, or even just a simple walk, Saskia is your gal! I have booked with her many times and have had nothing but a wonderful experience each time. My pup loves her and her family and feels so comfortable staying with her. She takes excellent care of the animals she watches and you can tell she has a true love for it. Saskia consistently keeps me in the loop of how my boy is doing and provides lots of adorable pictures. I absolutely recommend Saskia to anyone in need of pet care, you will be able to have peace of mind while away from your furry friend.”
“Amanda & Lee we're absolutely fantastic with our girl. They were able to come through for us in a tough spot and watch her for the weekend. Daisy was able to frolic and do all her dog things in their yard and she made new friends too. Would highly recommend them the next time you need to board your pup!”
“Yasmin and her family were nothing short of perfect. They handled and took care of my Oso as if he were his own family. They went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of, nurtured and always happy. He went on walks, trips and they were excellent in also giving him his medication properly and to my exact request. I 1000% recommend and am forever grateful to have found these wonderful people to watch over my beloved Oso! A+++ service an WILL rebook again!!!!”
“If I did daily pictures and multiple updates. Lots of open space to run and sniff. Plenty of friends to interact with. Good vibes with good people and good food. Any dog that stays here will be very happy. Thank you Ashley!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. Great with meds, after surgery care, senior dogs, walks an of course lots of play and cuddle time. I treat each dog as if they are mine. I work from and can make my own schedule, which leaves time to spoil my dog and get cuddling and lots of play time in. I have an unfenced yard but plenty of room for your fur baby to run. I have a staffy that is a rescue and is very sweet and gets along with other dogs. If I come to you we will have lots of fun.
“Sabrina couldn’t have been more accommodating and attentive to our family and our girls. She is caring, professional, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about giving fur babies a true (fun!) home away from home. We are so thankful for you, Sabrina!”

“Chelsey was amazing to Mozzy. She provided him with kindness, love and a wonderful nights stay. Her home was warm and inviting and she even had grace when Mozzy acted up. She kept us up to date with his behaviors and accomplishments along with several pictures. We enjoyed working with her and we are planning to use her again in the near future. I highly recommend her services for your furry family member.”
About: Hello! I’m so glad you are here! My name is Sharee. I am 23 and I just moved here to the Watertown area from Sarasota, FL; which is where I’m from. I became a pet sitter because I adore dogs and cannot have one of my own right now-- so I'm here to give lots of love and attention to yours! I've always been an animal lover and dogs have always been apart of our family throughout my childhood. Giving them the care they need and deserve is my priority and I will treat your dog like my own. I will take them on long walks (when needed), occasional park trips (if comfortable with) and make sure they receive the food, exercise and all the love they need. I've had many experiences with animals, including: 2 Great Danes, a Bichon Poo, a British short haired' cat, and I have helped raise and train two well behaved pure bread German Shepherds. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy doing and I guarantee yours will obtain nothing but the absolute best. I just joined the military and definitely need a reason to get off base and also make new fury friends here! Rover is a way for me to make additional income while doing something that brings me joy. My schedule is Monday- Friday but I’m expecting to have a lot of 4-day weekends. Your pets are your family and I understand what it's like to be away from them, even if you're off doing something fun. My main goal is to build a relationship with you and your pet which will allow us all to feel secure and connected. I will do my best to be attentive and communicative through pictures, phone calls etc. I look forward to meeting/ caring for your pets and making this a memorable experience for all of us! (I am available for Dog Walking, Drop-In Visits and House Sitting only) I am currently working full time Monday- Friday but am available around lunch time every weekday, after work during the week, and my weekends are completely free. I am available to walk your dog every day in the early morning, lunch time, and after work around 5pm. Additionally, I can also accommodate high energy breeds that need more than a potty walk.
“Alex was so great with our pup! He was happy and clearly well cared-for over the 5 days at her house. Bailey, her dog, is gentle and nice and was a great companion too. Highly recommend!”
“At 1st I was nervous cause I love my fur babies. However, after the 1st, Audrey sent me videos and I saw how comfortable and playful my dogs were so I wasn't as skeptical as on day 0. I picked them up and I can tell they were so spoiled! Thanks, Audrey for taking care of Zoe and Lexi as if they were your own furbabies.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my two dogs—especially during a stressful time while Beth was recovering from a broken leg. They went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable, safe, and sticking to her medication and recovery routine. I really appreciated the consistent updates, photos, and communication—it gave me so much peace of mind knowing both of my dogs were in such caring and capable hands. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and treat them like their own. I would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter!”
“Jessika was awesome , ottie was well taken care above and beyond during her stay with her was always available when I messaged her on ottie stay . Would definitely recommend and if I need a sitters she is the one I would call on the web site ❤️”

“Attention to all military families!! If you need someone super trusting to come and watch/take care of your furry family, do not hesitate to book with Lindsey! She was phenomenal and truly treats your babies like her own! She was super attentive, gave great timely updates, went beyond expectations in her care. She booked us the week before my husbands and I’s trip, took on the added challenge of taking care of one of our sick babies last minute as well. Well 100% be booking with Lindsey in the future ❤️🤧”
“1000/10 would recommend Bailey to pet sit for you!!! She went above and beyond the entire time we were gone. Every visit to my home was followed by a detailed report of how my cats were doing along with some pictures, which helped me miss them less. One of my cats got out a month before our scheduled trip and she even posted the flier I made to help me find my cat! Bailey truly treats your pets like they are her own. I will definitely be booking with her again the next time I am out of town!”

“Oreo loved his stay, I dropped him off on both Saturday and Sunday for a few hours ! Each day , she responded immediately and let me bring him very short notice! She was amazing with him, she sent pictures during his stay ,i can tell he enjoyed the walks ( he’s used to walks in the city not country walks) she kept him on schedule and I loved to see him interact with the other dogs , the new environment , and the love and care Andrea effortlessly gave to Oreo.

Absolutely will reach out to her again whenever I need care for Pongo.”

About: We have three dogs who are more spoiled than our children. We dont like people, but we love animals 🤣. We love walking and playing, and so do our pups! Our babies are spoiled rotten and we can't help it. Our pups have their own doggie pool that they can use any time in the summer. We have tons of toys and one of our favorite things to do is just be home with them and de stress. We sometimes go to the dog park or take walks on the Black River Trail, too! We care for our own fur babies every day, having extra in the house is just an added bonus. Our animals are loved all day long, and we promise to deliver the same to yours. We have a large fully fenced in yard in a rural area, so we have lots of room for running! Our pups go in and out as often as they want. We do allow pets on the furniture, always! ***FOR FULL TRANSPARENCY *** We do require all dogs who are boarding in our home to eat and sleep in a crate, as well as be in their crate if we need to leave the house for any reason. This is strictly for safety reasons to keep all dogs and our children safe. We understand that not everyone is a fan of crating their dog, and we would never do so without consent. This is non negotiable. If you feel strongly your dog does not require needed a crate please reach out to me and we can talk as I do make very rare exceptions. If your pup shows behavioral issues that make it difficult to maintain safety, such as biting or excessive aggressiveness, we will add on an extra charge to the booking. This is almost never an issue, and we are able to separate dogs as needed. When staying in our home, your pups safety is always our number one priority.

About: Hi, nice to meet you! Please call me Eliza. Firstly, thank you for considering me to take care of your fur-babies while you're away. Here's a little bit about me and my history with pet care. When I was little, I always knew I wanted to work with animals in some capacity. My journey with pet care began when I was 12 years old. One of my neighbors had a black lab puppy that they never let inside & never had company. One day, I walked up to their door, knocked & asked them to hire me to walk their dog everyday. I never looked back. Since then, friends, family, neighbors & strangers alike have entrusted me with all of their pet's needs. When considering booking with me, please keep in mind that I also work 35 hours a week, giving me plenty of time to pay attention to your pets. I do not have breed restrictions & am happy to work with any special needs or requirements your pet may have. FOR ALL NEW CLIENTS, I do require a meet & greet before booking to ensure that everyone (including your pet) is comfortable and to be able to ask/answer any questions we may have for each other. I've found this helps to ensure trust between all of us. Please be upfront with any triggers or quirks so I know exactly how to take care of your pet. *The meet & greet is a FREE service to ensure we're all a good fit for each other before the stay. For the time being, I do not offer boarding in my home. During my stay with your pets, I provide the utmost care & attention to your pet & their needs. My main priorities are making sure your pet is as safe & as comfortable as possible in an already anxious situation with their parents being away. Thank you so much for considering me to take care of your fur-babies while you're away.
About: With 5 years of dedicated experience in pet care, I provide a comprehensive and compassionate service tailored to the unique needs of each animal. My expertise extends beyond basic care to include specialized skills such as positive reinforcement-based puppy training, helping to establish good habits from an early age. I also have a deep understanding of senior dog care, including administering medication, providing gentle exercise, and creating a comfortable, low-stress environment. I have experience managing a variety of medical conditions, ensuring your furry family member is safe and well-cared for at all times. My goal is to be a trusted partner in your pet's health and happiness, providing peace of mind while you're away. Each morning starts with feeding, watering, and a potty break for the pets in my care. This is followed by a morning walk or playtime to get their energy out and start the day on a positive note. Throughout the day, I follow individual schedules, which might include specific feeding times for puppies or senior dogs, medication administration, or scheduled walks and potty breaks. The afternoon often includes another round of playtime or enrichment activities, such as puzzle feeders or training sessions, to keep their minds engaged. Evenings are typically quieter, with a final feeding and potty break before a relaxing wind-down. My weekly routine involves a bit more planning. I coordinate with pet owners to schedule walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I also use this time to restock on supplies and keep detailed records of each pet's behavior, eating habits, and health. If a pet is in my care for an extended period, I might schedule a grooming appointment to ensure they're in top shape. My schedule is built around the needs of the pet, ensuring they receive consistent, loving care and that their owners have peace of mind. Caring for pets, whether on my own or a client's, requires a responsible and attentive approach to ensure their well-being. A fundamental aspect is providing a consistent routine, including scheduled feeding times with high-quality, species-appropriate food and fresh water that is always accessible. Regular exercise is crucial for both physical and mental health; this can range from daily walks for dogs to interactive playtime. Environmental enrichment, such as toys, scratching posts, and comfortable bedding, helps prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. It's also vital to maintain a clean and safe living space by regularly cleaning food and water bowls, litter boxes, and bedding. Beyond daily care, a thorough pet care plan includes regular grooming, such as brushing and nail trims, and staying up-to-date on veterinary care, including vaccinations and preventative treatments for fleas, ticks, and worms. For client homes, clear communication is paramount. It is important for me to obtain detailed instructions regarding the pet's specific needs, routines, medications, and any behavioral quirks, as well as emergency contact information. This holistic approach, combining routine care with attention to individual needs and a focus on safety and hygiene, ensures a happy and healthy life for any pet under my care.

About: I have had dogs my whole life. Great with meds, after surgery care, senior dogs, walks an of course lots of play and cuddle time. I treat each dog as if they are mine. I work from and can make my own schedule, which leaves time to spoil my dog and get cuddling and lots of play time in. I have an unfenced yard but plenty of room for your fur baby to run. I have a staffy that is a rescue and is very sweet and gets along with other dogs. If I come to you we will have lots of fun.
“Sabrina couldn’t have been more accommodating and attentive to our family and our girls. She is caring, professional, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about giving fur babies a true (fun!) home away from home. We are so thankful for you, Sabrina!”
About: I have been loving and taking care of pets for years. I worked at animal shelter for 2 years and that gave me lots of experience with all kinds of animals young ones, old ones, moody ones, happy ones, and more! I have lots of experience with challenging dogs and ones with health issues too. I am currently home for the summer and looking to fill my time loving on some animals 🐾 I do not have any restrictions on time or days. I have a fenced yard and dogs to keep your fur friend company. I have the space to crate your pup if needed, and wood floor for easy clean ups.
“Chelsey was amazing to Mozzy. She provided him with kindness, love and a wonderful nights stay. Her home was warm and inviting and she even had grace when Mozzy acted up. She kept us up to date with his behaviors and accomplishments along with several pictures. We enjoyed working with her and we are planning to use her again in the near future. I highly recommend her services for your furry family member.”
About: Hello! I’m so glad you are here! My name is Sharee. I am 23 and I just moved here to the Watertown area from Sarasota, FL; which is where I’m from. I became a pet sitter because I adore dogs and cannot have one of my own right now-- so I'm here to give lots of love and attention to yours! I've always been an animal lover and dogs have always been apart of our family throughout my childhood. Giving them the care they need and deserve is my priority and I will treat your dog like my own. I will take them on long walks (when needed), occasional park trips (if comfortable with) and make sure they receive the food, exercise and all the love they need. I've had many experiences with animals, including: 2 Great Danes, a Bichon Poo, a British short haired' cat, and I have helped raise and train two well behaved pure bread German Shepherds. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy doing and I guarantee yours will obtain nothing but the absolute best. I just joined the military and definitely need a reason to get off base and also make new fury friends here! Rover is a way for me to make additional income while doing something that brings me joy. My schedule is Monday- Friday but I’m expecting to have a lot of 4-day weekends. Your pets are your family and I understand what it's like to be away from them, even if you're off doing something fun. My main goal is to build a relationship with you and your pet which will allow us all to feel secure and connected. I will do my best to be attentive and communicative through pictures, phone calls etc. I look forward to meeting/ caring for your pets and making this a memorable experience for all of us! (I am available for Dog Walking, Drop-In Visits and House Sitting only) I am currently working full time Monday- Friday but am available around lunch time every weekday, after work during the week, and my weekends are completely free. I am available to walk your dog every day in the early morning, lunch time, and after work around 5pm. Additionally, I can also accommodate high energy breeds that need more than a potty walk.
“Alex was so great with our pup! He was happy and clearly well cared-for over the 5 days at her house. Bailey, her dog, is gentle and nice and was a great companion too. Highly recommend!”
“At 1st I was nervous cause I love my fur babies. However, after the 1st, Audrey sent me videos and I saw how comfortable and playful my dogs were so I wasn't as skeptical as on day 0. I picked them up and I can tell they were so spoiled! Thanks, Audrey for taking care of Zoe and Lexi as if they were your own furbabies.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my two dogs—especially during a stressful time while Beth was recovering from a broken leg. They went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable, safe, and sticking to her medication and recovery routine. I really appreciated the consistent updates, photos, and communication—it gave me so much peace of mind knowing both of my dogs were in such caring and capable hands. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and treat them like their own. I would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter!”
“Jessika was awesome , ottie was well taken care above and beyond during her stay with her was always available when I messaged her on ottie stay . Would definitely recommend and if I need a sitters she is the one I would call on the web site ❤️”
About: From young age I've been responsible for many types of animals. I have experience with dogs and puppies, cats and kittens, cows and calfs, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, iguana, fish, frogs, turtles, salamanders, etc. I currently have one medium dog who lost his litter mate in December 2023. I'm a stay at home dog Mom. We both have lots of energy for walks and hikes. I live on a 1 mile dirt, seasonal, dead end road with lake frontage and massive yard for playing hide and seek in the trees and hunting squirrels. My dog is dog friendly, loves playmates. (No jealousy). In your home care would be provided to your pets as we would discuss with a meet & greet.
“Lizaida watched our chubbs last minute for us over the holidays. She kept us informed and sent pics and videos of our chubbs the whole time he was in her care . We will definitely be using her again in the future.”
About: I have experience with dogs my entire life from daily care routine to caring for senior dogs. Your member of the family would be treated very well and we are able to care for dogs that require special attention. Your dog would not go more than 2-4 hours without someone supervising them. I would make sure your animal is safe. The world class care your fur baby would get would be unmatched. My doggies are literally spoiled but well behaved. They are sweet so there will be plenty of attention and exercise for your loved one. ❤️❤️❤️
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I know the struggle of finding a dog sitter when you want to head out of town.
