“Jared is awesome! He’s now watched my two dogs twice for 5 day work trips and he’s just fantastic with them. He sends updates daily, makes sure they’re safe and having lots of fun, and the pups love him. I know they’re in great hands with Jared and look forward to having them stay with him again anytime I’m away. Thanks Jared!!”
About: I’m so excited to be welcoming pups back into my schedule! I offer attentive, personalized dog walking with a focus on making every outing feel safe, happy, and special. I treat each dog like one of my own, with plenty of affection, patience, and individual attention. While I continue recovering from knee surgery, I’m currently accepting small, easy-to-handle dogs for walks. Whether your pup loves a leisurely neighborhood stroll, lots of sniffing, or a little extra TLC, I’m happy to tailor their walk to their personality and routine 🐾💜 I am currently a college student, so my schedule varies slightly during the semester. However, I maintain a consistent routine and am reliable with planned visits, especially in the mornings. I commute from Sag Harbor and appreciate having a weekly schedule in advance to ensure consistency and dependability. During winter and summer breaks, I have a much more flexible and open schedule. I provide my own pet-safe wipes to clean paws after outdoor walks, helping keep your home clean while maintaining your pet’s comfort. I’m mindful about the products I use and prioritize gentle, pet-safe options. I always ask before giving any treats and make it a priority to respect both your home and your pet’s routine. I aim to provide thoughtful, considerate care in every environment I’m welcomed into.
“Carol, I’m so happy I found you. Piglet adores you, and you are truly amazing with her. Thank you for making her food and taking her for walks and rides in the car. The pictures you sent are so cute. Carol is a diamond in the care of our fur babies. She has such a great ora about her, and Piglet came home very Zen. Thank you, Carol; we will see you again soon.🌹🐾”
“Amanda and family was so accommodating to Beau. He was happy to play ball and loved the pool. From the moment we walked into their home I knew our boy would be care for. I would highly recommend your services. Thank you”
“Lois was so wonderful w my pup. She is conscientious and takes dog sitting very seriously, which gave me lots of peace of mind being away all day. We’ll definitely be booking her again next time I need a sitter!”
“Milo & Robbie loved Jill & her family (both human and fur-babies). They were clearly happy and comfortable (perhaps a little TOO comfy?? :) And Jill is a great communicator, and was super flexible when our schedule changed unexpectedly.”
“Hope's stay with Erica and Thomas left her exhausted and happy. I have never seen my dog look sad when I picked her up from somewhere but she was definitely not ready to leave them. It was obvious through her demeanor and how the kids came running down from school just to give her a hug goodbye that she was well cared for during her stay. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a great family to leave their dog with and will be leaving Hope with them again soon.”
“Victoria was terrific in taking care of my dog.....she was very responsive in setting things up and was super sweet when I came to drop Loulou off and pick her up....he family was there too, and they couldn't have been nicer.”

“We had a fantastic experience and highly recommend Jessica. She provided exceptional care for our 75-pound Standard Poodle, while we were away for a couple days. The communication was outstanding from start to finish, and the regular updates gave us complete peace of mind. It is incredibly reassuring to find someone so reliable, organized, and attentive.”
“Karen was very loving with my dog Charlie. ❤️ Karen sent pics and videos to me daily of her. My chihuahua can be moody at times but she handle her with patience . Thank you for taking her on our vacation.”
“They were attentive to my dogs needs. They cared for my beagle’s well being. They sent me regular updates of how he was doing and pictures. I do recommend them and will go back again.”
“Bailey and Zoey had a wonderful time at Ariel‘s home. She sent pictures on a daily basis that allowed us to feel comfortable and not have to worry about them when we are on our vacation. I would highly recommend her!”
“Patrycja was great! She walked Oshie frequently and sent photos daily. When I arrived, Oshie was glad to see me, but also acted like he would have gladly gone back inside her house if I had let him 😂. I highly recommend Patrycja and will use her again if needed!”

“Jared was absolutely amazing! He has a beautiful home and extensive grounds which Charlotte loved. His two dogs are adorable and sweet and Charlotte had such fun playing with them. It was great to get pictures and updates during the day and I think she wasn’t thrilled when it was time to leave. I couldn’t ask for anyone better for Charlotte to spend the day with. And I know that we will both be happy to see Jared again. Thank you Jared for being so awesome!”

“My dog loved her stay with Maria. She was well prepared, organized, loving and accepting of my dog and made sure she felt like a part of the group with her dogs. I could tell when I picked my dog up how much fun she had while staying with Maria and I would recommend her to anyone needing a safe and fun interactive environment for their dog. I will be using Maria again without a doubt.”
“Cait was awesome with Arlo, who I had just adopted a couple months before and had to come with me on a work trip. I basically had to drop him and run on the first day, and he barked at her! Cait was super sweet and had his tail wagging w/in minutes. She accommodated some schedule changes, enforced his training commands, and did super fun stuff with him. She was sad to see him go, which I took as the mark of someone who really cares about animals!!”
About: I have a deep love for dogs and 25 years of experience caring for them. I can assist with training, administer medications as needed, and ensure your pet receives plenty of exercise, attention, and loving care. "As a work-from-home professional, I have ample time and a genuine love for animals. I offer a variety of pet care services, including boarding, home sitting, daycare, walks, and playtime, available on both weekdays and weekends." I'm flexible and can adapt to your dog's specific care needs. To ensure a safe environment for all, dogs will remain on a leash on my 3-acre property unless they are exceptionally well-trained off-leash. Please let me know if you'd like to include walks on Bay Beach, the beach, or at a dog run in your dog's care plan.
“Joseph has been a great addition to the fur village that has taken care of Bishop. It’s been a crazy year and we are so thankful to know we have Aunties and Kuyas helping us during long work days to keep this once stray pup feeling like he is part of big Ohana!”
“CaraLynn was excellent with our two skittish Shetland Sheepdogs. She sent us pictures and updates of their activities and meals throughout the day, which made our time apart from them less stressful and worrisome. One of our dogs typically doesn't eat when placed in an unfamiliar environment, but he did so with CaraLynn. That is a positive reflection on her and how dogs respond to her. My wife and I recommend CaraLynn highly and would use her for dog-sitting services again in an instant.”
About: Hi there, I’m Brenda! 😊 I’m a dedicated pet sitter with a background in animal care. I’ve completed a vet assistant certification and have worked in a local veterinary clinic in Sag Harbor, gaining hands-on experience in pet health and well-being. I also spent time working in an animal shelter in Brazil, caring for pets of all kinds, including rescues with special needs. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities, and I’d love the opportunity to care for them as if they were my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 🐾💕 I’m a full-time pet sitter, so I have a flexible schedule to accommodate your pet’s needs. Whether it’s daily visits, extended stays, or customized care, I’m happy to work around what’s best for you and your furry friend! 🐾 I also offer Half Day Pet Care, a personalized 4–5 hour care service in your pet’s home. This is not traditional daycare at my house—instead, I spend dedicated time with your pet, providing companionship, walks, playtime, dog park, and plenty of attention. Pickup and drop-off services are included. Unfortunately, I’m unable to take pets into my home since I live in a rented place. That’s why I provide pet care in their owner’s home, where they can stay comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment. This also allows me to keep their routine as normal as possible while you’re away! 🐾💕

“This was my first time using Rover.com. I had picked up my German shepherd, Evie, from a shelter in North Carolina last November. Based on her recorded condition when brought in as a stray 5 weeks before she had been through a rough period. She has fully recovered now and is in good health. My wife and I wanted to find someone to board her with where she would be happy when we're away. We identified a few possibilities at the Rover website and following a positive meet and greet with Nadjeska last week, had Evie spend the day with her yesterday. It went very well. Nadjeska sent us several texts with photos during the day updating us on Evie's stay. We were looking for a home where Evie could spend time with and play with other dogs and Evie made a new friend, Sparkles, Najeska's little dog. Nadjeska has a fenced yard which provides a safe place for them to run around in the fresh air. Evie seemed to enjoy the day, Nadjeska obviously loves dogs, and we will be repeat clients in the near future.”
“Thank you Mary Jo! She watched my Pepper for a couple hours and did a great job! I also thought it was extremely sweet of your son to kiss Pepper goodbye on top of his head :) I highly recommend Mary Jo to look after your dog!”
“Jessica was great with our beagle Paco. We had to cancel the original date we planned to leave him and she was very understanding. When we reached out again she was very quick to respond. I would leave Paco with Jessica again he was very happy when I picked him up. I’m very attached to Paco so it was amazing receiving pictures and videos of him knowing he was in great hands. Will definitely be leaving Paco again in the future”
“Melissa was so nice and accommodating. She even offered to pick up and drop off our dog since it was our wedding. Cruz came back happy as can be and she shared some videos of him playing and having a great time. Would definitely use her again.”

About: Hi, My name is Brooke I go by Seven and my entire life has been surrounded by animals, from catching frogs, lizards, feeding the squirrels and always just having that touch even with the animals that don't trust or care for most humans. I have that special something. I started walking the whole neighborhoods dogs when i was 9 years old, i would walk up to 5 at a time. At the age of 13 i started volunteering for an animal rescue fostering dogs and cats. I was the girl growing up all my friends would bring stray or lost animals too. 16 i started working as a vet assistant, at 18 working a 150 dog ranch/doggie daycare and boarding facility to then move on into my early twenties working a place in Seattle called Dogwood Play Park, the first of its kind. It was an indoor outdoor 21 plus play park and daycare. Owners could bring their dogs to play while they had a beer and got to know other dog lovers, I built many beautiful dog... and people friendships there. I have always been told by the owners they that their dogs listens to me better..I say its just cause i am alpha pack leader!! I have massive respect and love for all animals. I worked in Portland Oregon on a farm in 2022 called Trisklee farm where i cared for all the animals on the property as farmer seven, i did weekend tours of the farm and helped run kids summer camp.I am very good with all ages and types of animals. My biggest strength is animal body language, i can read an animals move before they do it. Something i have picked up over my life span over working with animals everyday. I can administer medications and very aware of your pets behaviors to make sure they feel the most comfortable at all times. I owned guinea pigs, giant Flemish Rex rabbit, cats, and just recently lost my best friends Clyde who was a mastiff Doberman this June , he was almost 12. And Alice my English mastiff who was almost 11 back in 2023 . large breeds are my specialty. I just had a new born on July 29th 2026 and have a year and a half year old as well. I am a stay at home mom who misses her pets and want my children to grow up around animals without making the commitment right now to add to the family. So being good around children who are young and learning boundaries is a must so we don’t put your pet or my children in an uncomfortable or dangerous situation. Hope to hear from you and care for your furry babies . I am a doula and stay at home mom I jsut lost my soul dog and looking to add some furry friends to our pack as friends for my children to learn to be around and get some love . I am very loving at attentive, I notice your pets needs almost immediately and what works for them. I’ll be as involved or chill as they need me to be. It’s your pets world I’m living in it. Yet I’m still alpha and set boundaries

We hope to rebook with Elisa again when needed!”
“We cannot think Julius and family enough for watching our two dogs over the holidays! It is always challenging for us to leave them behind, but Julius and family took great care of them. They were happy, and well-cared for. Looking forward to booking them again.”
“This was our first Rover experience and we could not be more thrilled. Mary Jo was extremely efficient in her responses and guiding me through the process of our first stay for Amigo. She was flexible with timing and as we were driving cross country with four little girls this was invaluable. When we arrived, it was an easy handoff as Amigo was excited to be there from the beginning. Her children are lovely and she offered me updates with pictures that showed Amigo enjoying himself alongside them. The peace of mind this provided us as we navigated our own overdue and Covid-friendly visit with my family nearby was beyond helpful. If you are looking for a kind, seamless home away from home for your visit in this area I cannot imagine a better person. Thank you Mary Jo!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. Grew up with dogs and cats. I currently have a 9 year old lab/american bulldog mix and an 8 year old cat as well. I got them both when they were just 3 months old and raised them to be the 2 sweetest boys. I have experience with puppies/kittens. I also have experience with giving oral medicine to dogs. Mild dog training (not professional). I’ve watched dogs and cats for many of my friends/family varying from all different types of breeds from golden retrievers to husky’s, overnights and just casual check ins. Pet care is involved in every daily and weekly routine! With owning a dog myself I look to make sure he is well exercised and played with throughout the day while also giving him all my love for the past 11 years. I own a cat as well and he is the sweetest and nicest little guy. I’m actively taking care of both my animals to make sure they live the happiest life :) Available anytime any day to help with furry friends :) Currently I live on a property with roughly about 4 acres of land, most of which is fenced in. I walk and play with my dog 3/4 times a day in the fenced in area to make sure he’s getting the exercise he needs so there is plenty of room for more furry friends! I live on the bottom floor of a house so easy access in and outside for easy potty breaks and have tons of extra room for crating if need be
“Tessa was great with our golden retriever, and we're so glad our precious pup was able to stay with her. Her lovely home is on a secluded lake and is still very close to Southampton town center. She took our pup for walks both places and cared for her very well. Our pup was a happy camper when we picked her up having had a wonderful stay with Tessa. Thank you!”
About: I’ve always grown up with multiple dogs! Our family loves pups of all ages and sizes! I will treat your pup like one of our own! I work as a teacher. I’m able to do before school hours, after school hours, lunch time breaks and weekends! I am able to spend most of the day with your pup! I have a fenced in yard and one senior dog who spends most of his day sleeping! I live near the beach and love strolls down to the water!
