“This was our second booking with Stephanie. She was very accommodating with our dog. It was so helpful that she dropped the dog at our home just as we arrived back home. Our dog arrived happy and well cared for. Stephanie has been reliable, a good communicator, and flexible with each of our bookings. We couldn't ask for a better fit!!”
About: I have grown up with several dogs and cats that I have taken care of. My dad is also a dog trainer, so I often go out on walks and play with the dogs he cares for. I am very active, so your pets will never be bored! My schedule varies biweekly, so I am home every other week. The weeks I am off i have lots of free time, so I can be very flexible. The weeks I do have to work, I work nights, so I can be free during the afternoons for walks or drop-ins. I live without children, so your pets will be my priority. I have a fenced in yard for your pets to play in! I do own two cats and share my mom’s small dog part time, so i prefer pets that are friendly with other animals! If your pet needs to be crated I can accommodate that, but I also allow pets on furniture and on the bed if that is what they are used to at home. I am very flexible and am willing to accommodate most things to make your pets feel comfortable.
“We have a very anxious 12 year old black lab dog and going away is always a problem. We had a very pleasant experience with Alexandria. Her patience and personal attention was just what our dog needed. We recently went away for a week and Grace had a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend Alexandria's services.”
“Wow! Devin is the absolute man. From being extremely easy to coordinate with, to catering to our many needs, Devin was an absolute pleasure to work with! Our little one is very shy and reserved and Devin was so patient and great with Buddy, by the end of their stay he was running around, engaging with the other animals, and had the biggest smile on his face when we pick him up. We 100% recommend Devin who truly took our baby in and was a joy! Thanks Devin!”
“Mikaela was really great! She was gracious to watch our pup while we attended a wedding nearby and was extremely communicative leading up and throughout his stay! We would absolutely book with Mikaela again.”
“Jacqueline did such a good job with my nervous dog! She made him comfortable and sent me updates and a pic to show me how he was doing. I will definitely use her again. It was nice to know my dog was safe and sound while I was at a concert nearby.”
“Inge was amazing with my pup! She sent picture updates to let me know how she was doing. Rosie had such a good time at her house that when I came to pick her up, she didn't want to leave! I am so glad I found Inge and we will certainly be back when needed!”
“Jen was wonderful! Sent me daily updates and I felt very comfortable with her watching my dogs. I will be using her for all my dog sitting needs! My girls have very big personalities, if you will (for being chihuahuas) so it takes a special person to be able to handle a 10 pound dog who thinks they’re big and loud. 10/10 recommend!!!”
“Kassandra and Johnathan were great with our Puppy Leo! He is a big ball of energy and they were great with him and he loved playing with their dog Charlie. I would recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely bring Leo back when we need boarding again!”
“A Big Shout Out to Brittney for taking care of our Finley for his first weekend away from home. We were a little nervous since our dog has some separation issues. But she kept us updated through text and photos and he looked like he had a great time with her and her cutie dog Pierre. Dogs got along well and our boy looked relaxed which in turn let us know we made the right choice when picking Brittney. We will definitely call her again for future help.. Thanks Brittney!!!”
“Selfishly I would love to keep this my best secret , but John is the best sitter you could possibly hope for. I am actually blown away by the amount of attention and care my pup received here. We got constant updates and had no doubts at all about Winston being spoiled while we were spoiling ourselves. Couldn't ask for more.”
“Carolyn was so amazing with our 3 year old golden, Ellie. She sent photos every day that we were away and updated us on walks or playtime. Ellie looked so happy in every picture and that made me feel confident that she was in good hands while we were on vacation. Carolyn is funny and so sweet. She’s a dog lover at heart and it shows in how she cared for Ellie. Ellie can’t wait to go back!”
“Maegan was flexible with our appointment. We had an important meeting on Monday and she canceled Monday. Abby had a good time. She came home and was calmer than she has ever been.”
“Even though this was short notice, Jillian was excellent with Ezra! She sent videos, photos, and updates about what was going on during the night and day. I felt at peace knowing my boy was in great hands. If you're looking for a responsible, loving, caring sitter, look no further.”
“Andrea was wonderful with our dog Denali. We feel so fortunate to have connected with her for our trip to Lake George. She was flexible with us when we hit unavoidable travel delays and had to meet up later than expected and at a different location. She communicated with us by text when something worried her (very reassuring!) She sent us happy dog pictures. And Denali was so happy when we picked her up. We will definitely use her again when we’re back in the area!”
“Carrie was very flexible when I had a family situation and had to modify my time request. She sent photos of the dogs and reached out when she was concerned about them not eating. When I arrived for pick up, she had everything ready for me. I will definitely use her services again and would highly recommend her.”
“Desiree was amazing with my dog Ellie! She kept me updated with texts and pictures and even gave her a bath! I would 100 percent recommend her to care for your pet!! I’ll definitely be booking with her again !”
“Peg and her family took care of my dog when I went away to Europe and I cannot say enough about how thrilled I was with the care she received. Peg has a beautiful, pet friendly home with a large, shady fenced in yard and two sweet pooches of her own who were great playmates for my dog. Peg sent me pictures and updates daily and it was so obvious that my dog was being well- cared for, loved, and treated as one of the family. Peg and family's Stay and Play was an absolutely fantastic experience and my dog and I! It's a doggie paradise!!! ”
“Nancy and her son took great care of Bruce when he came to stay with them. Bruce had such a great time as was obvious in the photos we received and how comfortable he was when we came to pick him up. After an initial confusion at drop off, Nancy quickly clarified and reassured me of the plans and following that Bruce just had the best time.”

“Amber is a natural for this type of work. Our cat, who is generally social but sometimes stand-offish with new people, took to her immediately. We received daily updates and pics during Amber’s visit and felt totally comfortable leaving our fur baby in her capable hands. Would recommend highly!”
“On short notice, Stephanie was able to stop in and check on my cat when I went away for 5 days. My cat is really shy but even came out from behind the couch on the last day Stephanie was checking in on her.”
“Grace was wonderful. On time.got photos or 3 dogs. Came home to halt calm dogs and a clean house. Grace was pleasant to meet. A pleasure to when with. We will call on her again. Thank you”

I treat every pet like family, sticking to their routine while giving plenty of love, attention, and updates. With flexible weekday and weekend availability, you can trust me to keep tails wagging and hearts happy!

“I reached out to Brittney at the last minute one evening and needed someone for the next day. She was great and responded quick to help out. She treated my dog amazing and would definitely recommend and will be reaching out to her again! Thank you!!”
About: Common courtesy and communication is paramount. **Willing to travel up to an hour away. Just because Rover says you are outside my service area it does not always mean you are. I have clients an hour North and South of me. **Necessary update as of 6/21/23** I will require current credit card info be on file at your vet or provided for me in your pet write up ONLY in case of emergency. In the event of an emergency and I could not get a hold of the human, puppies have no pockets to hold a card, the vet required me to pay. I have raised 3 separate RESCUE Rottweilers to be exceptional ambassadors of their breed. I currently do not have any pets since my big boy passed away in 2016. I hope to again one day have my own dogs. Until then I will love YOUR pet. **I DO NOT board animals at my home. Only repeat clients would MAYBE be possible for a very short amount of time.** Clients pets have included many breeds, species for days, weeks. Many Golden Retrievers, Doodles, mixes aka Heinz57s, Old English Sheep dog, lots of kitties, a chameleon, turtles, a bearded dragon, a small bird, fish, Rottweilers, a very challenging but lovable English Bulldog and Huskies one of which was very reactive. Oh and a LOT of house plants! PLEASE NOTE: I am deathly allergic to horses which I am very sad about. Any type of animal requiring LARGE amounts of hay would also be a problem i.e, goats, cows, alpacas I am sorry to say. Small rodent animals requiring hay for food or bedding has not been a big deal. My personnel dogs were very public dogs, parks, events etc. With the ever present fact in mind that as good as my animal was it is still an animal. Never purposely putting them in a situation to be loose (unless at home or a fenced park) or get into anything that could harm them. Read quite a few books/manuals by military working dog trainers in hopes of training a service oriented Rottie. Came very close to passing the Good Citizen certification but my dogs never liked the “stay” part when I had to walk away with my back turned. They just had to be next to me. So close. PLEASE NOTE: I have my preferences set to NOT to show any photos of YOUR pet publicly. I would ask permission first to share. Photos only NEVER infomation of course. My schedule allows me to be available to be in YOUR HOME, with your pets all day/night, unless noted ahead of time and of course trips to the store. I have many types of animals that insist on sleeping in bed just like they do when their people are home which in fine by me. Just take some Benadryl and snuggle on in. I try to stick closely to how the home runs normally so the pets do not have any surprises that can make them anxious. Sleep, food, walks, play time etc. I supervise dogs in their own yard fenced or not. I am very organized and like an outlined idea of their schedule to be written down for me to follow as closely as YOU would.
About: I’ve been a proud pet owner for over 13 years and can’t imagine life without animals in my home. I currently have an 11-year-old dog and two kids, so I’m no stranger to juggling love, care, and responsibility. From playful puppies to senior dogs, I’ve cared for pets at all stages of life and understand the patience, attention, and affection each stage requires. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every dog as if they were part of my own family. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or just making sure they’re happy and comfortable, I love being able to give pets the care they deserve. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. Between my own dog and kids, I’m used to keeping a consistent schedule with walks, feeding, playtime, and downtime. I make sure pets get the right balance of exercise, attention, and comfort throughout the day. Whether it’s adding an extra walk, stopping in for playtime, or providing overnight care, I can easily fit pet care into my week because animals are already such an important part of my life. When pets stay in my home for boarding, they’re welcomed as part of the family. I provide a safe, cozy environment with plenty of playtime, snuggles, and exercise to make them feel right at home. For drop-in visits, I follow each pet’s routine closely — feeding, refreshing water, giving potty breaks, playtime, and any special care they need. During walks, I make sure pets get both exercise and fun while keeping their safety my top priority. No matter the service, I treat every pet like my own, giving them the love, attention, and consistency they deserve.
“We give Victoria a 5 star rating. She has been absolutely what we needed. She stayed in contact with us, made sure our cat took his meds, which is extremely important , and sat with him and pet him every visit so he wouldn't be lonely. She was prompt and stuck to her schedule. She made sure our cat had fresh water and food, and cleaned the litter box. We were anxious about leaving him but she demolished our fears and we were able to rest assured knowing our cat Maui was being well taken care of. We are so happy with her services and would recommend her to anyone with any pet!”
“Thank goodness for Jessika’s great care of our cat! We were able to fully enjoy the trip with our grandchildren without worrying about our pet’s welfare. She is so responsible and caring that we know he is in good hands. Thank you Jessika!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I have a German Shepherd puppy of my own who is currently in training and has already graduated level one classes, so I understand the importance of structure, patience, exercise, and positive reinforcement. He also regularly attends daycare and is very well cared for, which has given me hands-on experience with socialization and daily routines. I know every pet has a different personality and comfort level, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a routine, I treat every pet like family and keep owners updated so they can feel at ease too. I have two cats at home, and caring for my cats has taught me how important patience, gentleness, and respecting each animal’s personality is. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, playtime, litter box care, and giving cats the calm attention they need to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away! Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I’m great with time management and already structure my days around caring for animals. I currently work twice a month at the hospital as a Patient Care Tech, and I also work retail shifts at the outlets that are usually only 5–6 hours long. This gives me plenty of flexibility and time to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, feeding, and updates for pets. Since I also care for my own dog daily, pet care is already an important part of my everyday life. I am an early riser and can stay up as long as your pet needs! I prefer caring for pets in their own home because it helps them stay comfortable in a familiar environment and keeps their normal routine consistent. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, feeding, fresh water, and lots of care while their owners are away. I also pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, keep things clean and organized, and provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away.
About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life, had a Golden Retriever litter and have my own Golden. I love dogs and also love cats alike. I had 2 cats up until recently, but plan to get one soon. I have pretty open availability. I work from home with a loose schedule. I am always available after 2pm and free all day Fri - Sun. I have a Golden Retriever myself. Having a large dog, they need lots of attention and exercise. I am very on top of feeding and walking. I have a little bit of OCD so I love to follow a schedule.
About: Hi! For the past 10 years, I've been the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends, and I genuinely love getting to know every new furry friend. I'm an ER nurse working three 12-hour shifts each week, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to care for your pets. My nursing background has made me calm under pressure, highly observant, and an excellent communicator. While I hope emergencies never happen, you can feel confident knowing I'm able to think quickly, troubleshoot problems, and keep you informed if anything unexpected arises. My priority is always building trust and making your pet feel safe and comfortable, and to keep them on their daily routine. I let each pet set the pace, paying close attention to their body language and energy level so I can adapt to what they need. Whether that's playtime, a relaxing walk, or a quiet afternoon. I'm very active and love being outdoors, so if your dog enjoys adventures, I'd be happy to take them on nature walks, hikes, or trips to a local park. During house sitting, I provide at least three walks per day and tailor activity to your dog's individual energy level. I live in Somerville and am often around exploring the area, which makes me a reliable option during busy times like summers, weekends, and holidays. I'm also comfortable caring for multiple dogs at once, as that's been the majority of my experience through years of pet sitting for family and friends. My goal is simple: provide dependable, attentive care so you can have peace of mind while your pet is happy, safe, and loved.
“She did a great job looking after our 4 cats. She followed my feeding instructions and did a good job cleaning up their litter boxes. She gave attention and playtime to the cats that were willing to play ( our one cat is extremely shy). She also kept me up to date with how the visit went.”
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I have just completed my first year of Veterinary Technician school and have done 3 different internships in the field. I am very well versed with simple care, medications, and most importantly love for the animals! My schedule fluctuates very frequently as I have a part time job and im also completeing an internship, however I can easily work my schedule around whatever the animals need! I have a fenced yard with a very friendly pup at home. I can also let your pet in and out of crates, give treats and/or medications, take them on walks, and anything else they may need.
About: I have been cat sitting (both overnight and drop-in visits) for the last few years. I am comfortable with cats who want to be around me 24/7, cats that want me to be as far away as possible, and everything in-between! Recently I have been doing a lot of overnight stays to watch an elderly cat because she gets sick when she gets lonely, and I love my time with her. At my current job I have gained incredibly valuable experience caring for elderly cats who need to receive a litany of medication. I feel comfortable giving cats liquid medications and tablets/capsules orally if the patient will not take it inside of food. I understand that as loving and sweet as our pets are, no one likes taking a bitter medication and I never hold it against them if they're not thrilled about it. I am competent in the towel wrap method too.

“We were in town for a wedding and another sitter canceled on us so we reached out to Andrea and she was able to take them last minute. Our one guy is timid usually but immediately let her pet him! We felt instantly comfortable with Andrea, her pups and her home. We knew they would be in good hands! Our pups loved both her and her husband and we are so thankful our guys were safe and happy!! If we are ever in town again, we will be booking with Andrea!”
“Walter had such a wonderful stay! He loved playing with the other puppies and came home ready for a long sleep! Great communication and felt very safe. Thanks so much!”
About: I love all animals!!! I really enjoy coming to your house and playing with your precious babies. I have cared for a variety of animals including dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, birds, turtles, and yes even snakes. I’ve even experienced breeding and nurturing 11 golden retrievers (3 adults and 8 puppies) at one time. I will come to your house to LOVE, feed, water, play, brush, walk, talk to, and even car rides with your beautiful pets. I’ve also been known to mop, water your plants, retrieve your mail, and take your garbage to the street. On numerous occasions, I’ve taken on jobs in Massachusetts and Vermont as mini vacations! I have a bubbly and friendly personality that animals respond well too! Reasonable rates, flexible hours, and many satisfied customers! I am retired from the county, which allows me to provide full time care to all my fury friends! I travel distances to watch your babies and occasionally welcome your pet to stay at my house. My goal is to watch pups in their own environment. It’s always difficult when Mom and Dad go away, but they are definitely less stressed if they get to stay home. This way they can feel safe and comfortable in their own surroundings

About: I grew up in a home that raised labs for Guiding Eyes, and personally raised four on my own. I’ve never not had a dog and am always caring for family and friends dogs. We currently have a four year old yellow lab. I currently work from home full time, with flexibility throughout my day to care for my own, and your dog! I take our dog for a long lunch time walk everyday. We have 3 acres that is partially wooded, but also a large yard so there is plenty of room for play! Our four year old lab will provide plenty of company and play for your dog! I also have a large and small crate available.

“Lauren was the ideal person and place to leave our pup while we day tripped saratoga. Lauren promptly kept us updated with pictures etc. and provided our pup with a safe and stimulating home away from home. Thanks Lauren!!!”
“These are the best people my dog has encountered. They answered me for a last minute request on Rover which was a huge blessing. My dog got the chance to experience life on a boat for a day. They interacted with her the entire day, and wore her out. They both gave my dog so much love and she needed it because we're going through a hard time with a temporary small living situation. They were very respectful of how I have raised my own dog and wanted to be positive that I was okay with having my dog going on a boat ride. My dog got to swim for the first time.”
“Devin was amazing at communicating and giving updates on how my dog was during the day. He made sure she got what she needed. He show me the fenced in yard where she had free roam to mess around in. I will definitely be using his services again in the future!”
About: I have been a dog owners for 15 years. My two beautiful shitzus have since gone to the rainbow bridge. I miss those wagging tails and long walks.

I live in Greenfield Center on 8 private acres nestled in the woods with a large fenced in backyard . I am retired and home all day , I mostly garden and work around the house. Pets would be an added pleasure to my home I have a fenced in backyard. I live in the country at the end of a cul-de-sac my house is one level which makes it easy for little ones and elderly pets.
“Carolyn watched my pup while I was in the area visiting with a friend. She was super easy to communicate with leading up to and during the the stay. Carolyn was so nice and made me feel comfortable leaving Charlie with her. I highly recommend her! Thanks Carolyn!”

“Sierra took great care of my elderly dog. He was so content when I picked him up that he didn’t want to go home. She kept him separated from the other dogs, but in the same room, so he could see and interact with his new friends without any risk to him physically. My little potato really enjoyed his time there and I’ll be bringing him back!”

About: I got my first dog when I was in 3rd grade and couldn't imagine life without them now. I spent the last 12 years working with animals as well as having a full house at home. Both my dogs, champ and Oliver, I raised from 8 weeks old and did all their training myself. I have been doing walks and drop ins for 2 years now and have references available upon request! I am a stay at home mom so it's very easy to fit in providing the excellent care for your fur babies to my schedule! I can do anything needed, whether it's basic a stop during the day or if you need more specific detailed care like medicine administered. We will adjust my care routine to the needs of your fur baby.

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Having grown up surrounded by dogs, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs and genuinely love spending time with them. I also volunteer at Lucky Puppy Rescue, where I help care for dogs and ensure they are safe, comfortable, and well looked after. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have consistently trusted me with their pets, and I take that responsibility seriously, treating every dog as if they were my own with patience, attention, and care. Pet care fits into my routine by being something I plan around my schedule every day, even when I’m busy with school and practice. In the morning, before I leave for my first class at 8:00 a.m., I make sure my pet is fed and has fresh water. This is an important part of starting the day because it sets a routine and ensures my pet is taken care of even when I’m not home. Since my school schedule is split throughout the day (8:00–9:00, 10:00–12:00, and 2:00–3:00), I don’t always have long periods at home, but I still try to check in whenever I can. After my last class ends at 3:00, I go home briefly before practice. During that half hour, I might let my pet outside, clean up after them, or spend a few minutes giving them attention. After practice, when I get home around 5:00, I have more time to focus on pet care. This is when I usually feed my pet again, take them for a walk if needed, and spend quality time playing or relaxing with them. In the evening, I also make sure everything is set for the night, like refilling water and making sure they are comfortable. Overall, pet care is a consistent responsibility that I fit into both the small breaks in my day and my longer free time at night. Even with a busy schedule, I make sure my pet’s needs are always a priority. I care for pets in my home by creating a safe, active, and comfortable environment where they feel right at home. I have a fenced-in yard, so dogs get plenty of time outside to run and play. I also have a pup of my own who loves being around other dogs, which helps keep visiting pups entertained and social. Throughout the day, they’ll have a mix of playtime with other dogs and one-on-one attention, along with lots of cuddles so they feel cared for and not alone. Inside, I make sure every dog has a space where they feel secure. I have a crate available if needed, but there’s also plenty of room if you’d prefer to bring your own crate. I focus on keeping a routine that includes feeding, outdoor time, and attention, so each pup stays happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life, had a Golden Retriever litter and have my own Golden. I love dogs and also love cats alike. I had 2 cats up until recently, but plan to get one soon. I have pretty open availability. I work from home with a loose schedule. I am always available after 2pm and free all day Fri - Sun. I have a Golden Retriever myself. Having a large dog, they need lots of attention and exercise. I am very on top of feeding and walking. I have a little bit of OCD so I love to follow a schedule.
About: I’m Jess and I’m a full time programmer looking to spend time with dogs! I have had dogs all my life including small and large (150lbs!!) I have had 4 dogs in total since I have been born. I recently moved back home into my own apartment and I’m not able to care for my own dog. I’ve taken care of my own dogs my entire life and I miss it quite a bit! While I’m home, I want to provide dogs care while keeping myself busy as well! I’m very flexible and I’m a hard worker! If there are specifics to your dog, I promise to follow them to the T. If you need me at a moments notice, I will get back to you ASAP. Dogs truly are a mans best friend and I want to keep them in my company! I work full time and I can care for dogs in the morning and evening. I can do an occasional walk during my lunch. I also work from home and there is some flexibility around when I can do that. I love building connections with dogs. I know that it is probably super scary for them to have a stranger come into their home. I do not push dogs past their comfort zones. I let them warm up to me on their own schedule.
About: Animals are too good for humankind, so they should be treated like absolute royalty. I grew up with cats and had a small but successful dog-walking and pet-sitting business in my neighborhood growing up. I am more than happy to treat your pet as if they were my own <3 I am currently unemployed and searching for a new job, but in the meantime, outside of my rugby schedule, I am available to take care of your pets! To make sure your pet feels as comfortable as possible while you are away, I would love to learn their typical routine at home and their interests!
About: Hi there! My name is Natalia and I live in South Burlington my little 12 year old fur baby (pug/daschund mix). I can understand and relate to the stress and importance of finding a trustworthy care giver. I would love to be able to give the kind of care to your little one like I would expect for my own. South Burlington and Williston area would work the best for me. I would love to meet your family and spend time with your little fur baby! :) I would be available Monday through Friday after 5pm (and before 8:30am depending on situation) and any time Saturday and Sunday. Willing to be flexible! 😁 My sweet Harley boy is an older pup who has incontinence and regularly wears diapers, so we understand that special pets sometimes have special needs!
About: I have had animals my whole life and I currently have two dogs and three cats. I’ve trained one of my current dogs and one of my previous dogs, giving me experience with basic training and routines. I’ve also dog-sat for others and always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I treat every pet like my own and pay close attention to their individual needs. I am home for the summer from college, and am able to be very flexible. I have almost all weekends free, and will work during the week as well. Starting late august I will be moving my location to my college town and will not be accepting requests for the Sville area! While home for the summer I live with a house full of pets, as well as having animals at school. I am perfectly capable of working with your animals in your own home as I am a trustworthy, responsible and reliable person with a great love for animals.

I want to help ease those nerves and give your pets the best time while you are away! plenty of belly rubs and cuddles. I can send updates to you when I am with them!
About: I’ve always had 2+ dogs since I was born and have cared for them ever since, they’re my absolute world and I’d be honored to help care for your pups too Im a full time student however out of school hours I am fully committed to playing with and loving on dogs as I normally would with my own:) In my opinion parenting a dog is just as important as a child and I’d never tell someone how to do that; so however you’d like me to care for your pets I am more than willing and able to do so!
“Colleen D is fantastic!!!! She cares for every need (and wants!!! LOL) my pooches Bella and Sophie have. She is reliable, caring, attentive and loves my dogs as if they were princesses and her own. She is always there for me even in short notice. I am extremely greatful for her attentive care, passion for animals and over all kind spirit. It comes without any reservation that I would wholeheartedly recommend Colleen for any type of care.”
About: I have taken care of many animals over the years such as cats, dogs, hampsters, chickens, rabbits, ducks, cows and horses. I am a mom to two children, 3 dogs, and a cat. I am very well trusted by all of my friends and family and will always provide the best care possible. I work part time and create my own schedule so my hours are very flexible. We can work together on fulfilling your animals needs and cares. I will travel to you so there will be no need to transfer your pet from location to location. This way they can feel comfortable.

I also understand the responsibility of caring for animals in someone's home. I can guarantee you nothing but respect when working with your animals!
About: I have owned dogs my entire life and enjoy taking care of them. Walks, playing tug, fetch, or just a good snuggle, I can’t imagine my life without them. I get a lot of satisfaction for caring and loving these amazing animals. I do work full time but am available Thursdays after 1:30 PM. Saturday and Sundays are wide open. I can do holidays as well if needed. I currently have one very friendly dog to keep your dogs’ company. I also have a crate if needed to ensure your pup’s safety if they prefer that.

“We have a very anxious 12 year old black lab dog and going away is always a problem. We had a very pleasant experience with Alexandria. Her patience and personal attention was just what our dog needed. We recently went away for a week and Grace had a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend Alexandria's services.”
“Wow! Devin is the absolute man. From being extremely easy to coordinate with, to catering to our many needs, Devin was an absolute pleasure to work with! Our little one is very shy and reserved and Devin was so patient and great with Buddy, by the end of their stay he was running around, engaging with the other animals, and had the biggest smile on his face when we pick him up. We 100% recommend Devin who truly took our baby in and was a joy! Thanks Devin!”
“Jen was wonderful! Sent me daily updates and I felt very comfortable with her watching my dogs. I will be using her for all my dog sitting needs! My girls have very big personalities, if you will (for being chihuahuas) so it takes a special person to be able to handle a 10 pound dog who thinks they’re big and loud. 10/10 recommend!!!”
“Kassandra and Johnathan were great with our Puppy Leo! He is a big ball of energy and they were great with him and he loved playing with their dog Charlie. I would recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely bring Leo back when we need boarding again!”
“Selfishly I would love to keep this my best secret , but John is the best sitter you could possibly hope for. I am actually blown away by the amount of attention and care my pup received here. We got constant updates and had no doubts at all about Winston being spoiled while we were spoiling ourselves. Couldn't ask for more.”
“Carolyn was so amazing with our 3 year old golden, Ellie. She sent photos every day that we were away and updated us on walks or playtime. Ellie looked so happy in every picture and that made me feel confident that she was in good hands while we were on vacation. Carolyn is funny and so sweet. She’s a dog lover at heart and it shows in how she cared for Ellie. Ellie can’t wait to go back!”
“Maegan was flexible with our appointment. We had an important meeting on Monday and she canceled Monday. Abby had a good time. She came home and was calmer than she has ever been.”
“Even though this was short notice, Jillian was excellent with Ezra! She sent videos, photos, and updates about what was going on during the night and day. I felt at peace knowing my boy was in great hands. If you're looking for a responsible, loving, caring sitter, look no further.”
“Andrea was wonderful with our dog Denali. We feel so fortunate to have connected with her for our trip to Lake George. She was flexible with us when we hit unavoidable travel delays and had to meet up later than expected and at a different location. She communicated with us by text when something worried her (very reassuring!) She sent us happy dog pictures. And Denali was so happy when we picked her up. We will definitely use her again when we’re back in the area!”
“Carrie was very flexible when I had a family situation and had to modify my time request. She sent photos of the dogs and reached out when she was concerned about them not eating. When I arrived for pick up, she had everything ready for me. I will definitely use her services again and would highly recommend her.”
“Desiree was amazing with my dog Ellie! She kept me updated with texts and pictures and even gave her a bath! I would 100 percent recommend her to care for your pet!! I’ll definitely be booking with her again !”
“Peg and her family took care of my dog when I went away to Europe and I cannot say enough about how thrilled I was with the care she received. Peg has a beautiful, pet friendly home with a large, shady fenced in yard and two sweet pooches of her own who were great playmates for my dog. Peg sent me pictures and updates daily and it was so obvious that my dog was being well- cared for, loved, and treated as one of the family. Peg and family's Stay and Play was an absolutely fantastic experience and my dog and I! It's a doggie paradise!!! ”
“Nancy and her son took great care of Bruce when he came to stay with them. Bruce had such a great time as was obvious in the photos we received and how comfortable he was when we came to pick him up. After an initial confusion at drop off, Nancy quickly clarified and reassured me of the plans and following that Bruce just had the best time.”
“Both Julia & her husband are actively involved in taking care of the puppies. They have 2 fenced in areas for the dogs to run & play and a separate area for the dogs to sleep & play when they are not inside. Crates are provided, all the way to an extra, extra large!! After doing our meet-n-greet w/our dog & spending a long time asking TONS of questions, I had no reservations boarding our dog w/them. Boomer was excited to go there & came home happy, tired from playing & clean. Thank you for offering a a great facility. I highly recommend bringing your dog here :)”
“Ginger was wonderful. She took our 5 month old puppy for 3 nights. She provided plenty of updates and pictures. We felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with her. I’m thankful we found her through this app.”
“Laurie was great! Was a little worried being our first time using the site but was very happy he was well taken care of! We got pictures of his stay and he had a bunch of dogs to play with! Will definitely be happy using her in the future if we need a dog sitter!”
“Excellent experience with Samantha, kept us updated several times a day with pictures and text messages on our our girl was doing. Samantha was very attentive.”
“Sadie was absolutely wonderful. I was very nervous leaving my pup August and she was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and August came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend Sadie to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter for their fur baby.”
