“Olivia is amazing!!! Our Nutka stay with Olivia for a week. This was Nutka’s first time away from us which may have been difficult at her 4 years of age.

Words to describe Olivia include: loving, thoughtful, intelligent, caring, and dependable. We are definitely returning and highly recommend Olivia to anyone!”

“Kristin and Bruce were fantastic. From the moment we stepped into their home they were welcoming of us and our dog, and it was obvious we made the right choice. They were loving and caring and we are certain that carried on throughout our dogs stay with them. Pictures and updates were sent and they kept to her normal routine, even when sleeping. Our dog was excited to see us again...but was torn and demanding good byes from Kristen, Bruce, and the kids (hoping to go back). Definitely a wonderful experience for us and your dog!”

We were very excited when they were available for these dates because Jarvis had a great time with them the first time. They did such an amazing job with him again and it really seemed like Jarvis felt right a home. They always send frequent updates and pictures which is really appreciated :)”
“I truly can't say enough wonderful things about Henry's stay with Ryan and Martha's family! They were so kind and accommodating when my travel plans changed several times, and I could tell that Henry was very loved and well cared for. They sent updates and pictures throughout the week, and they were very responsive. It was the best peace of mind having him stay with them, and I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Gilian introduced Logan to her space and observed him with her own dogs during our initial meet and greet. After that introduction I felt confident Gilian would be the perfect dog sitter. I could tell that she was tuned in to how Logan responded to her environment and to her other dogs . She demonstrated understanding with regard to caring for a senior dog . Gilian is flexible, kind, appropriate, patient, communicative, responsive and experienced. I loved the photos and daily summaries I received while Logan stayed with her. I will not hesitate to leave Logan with Gilian during my future travels.”

“Jennifer was truly exceptional. Our two cats are both particular and needy, with lots of detailed instructions, medications, and routines — and she handled everything with patience, care, and professionalism. She followed every instruction to the letter, checked in regularly with thoughtful updates, and took the time to problem-solve when things didn’t go perfectly (which happens with our cats!). Her Rover updates were thorough, with plenty of photos, videos and notes that made it easy to relax while we were away. She was proactive — adjusting to our cats’ moods, getting meds and supplements done even when one of them was hiding, and finding ways to keep both cats happy. Jennifer’s calm, communicative approach and attention to detail made all the difference. We came home to two well-cared-for, content kitties — and a spotless setup. We’ve used Rover for years, and she’s easily one of the best sitters we’ve ever had. Highly recommend!”
“Heather was great with our cats! She was even able to get our fussy one to take his medication. We appreciate her taking care of our kitties while we were away for the weekend!”
“I knew Ashley would be the perfect fit to check in on our 19 year old cat, Pumpkin, while we were out of town for 11 days. Ashley quickly responded to my inquiry, is friendly and kind, a great communicator, and flexible. She even took in our garbage cans for us. I know that Pumpkin was well cared for and received lots of attention while we were away. I loved receiving the photos of Pumpkin that Ashley sent. I highly recommend Ashley. She will definitely be my go-to sitter for Pumpkin.”
About: I grew up caring for pets of all kinds, and for the past six years have cared for a behaviorally complex (but wonderful!) rescue pup. Our journey has taught me a ton about training, and about patience. As a result, I am very understanding of dogs and other animals that deal with reactivity — we are a shame-free household! I work full time, but my schedule is flexible on my work-from-home days and on weekends, which gives me plenty of time to care for and love on your pets. As a detail-oriented, attentive person, I will be sure to follow any instructions you have for your pet’s care. Otherwise, I will use my best judgment and careful attention to the safety and health of your pet to make all other decisions while they’re in my care.
“Taylor was great with my cats. Very communicative and I could tell she has a lot of experience handling cats and wanting to know about likes/dislikes in order to better take care of them. I will call on her services again if needed”
“Laura was great and super nice! She stopped by to meet my kitties before her drop-in visits. She sent me pics of them each day we were gone and assured me they were ok. No complaints and would definitely book her again!”
“Samantha was wonderful! She was great with communication and left me feeling totally confident leaving my cat in her care. Would recommend and rebook with her again in a heartbeat!”
“Abby and Ian are wonderful!!! They were timely and very communicative. From the pictures they sent, you can tell our kittens loved them. We will definitely hire them again!! Thank you so much!!!”
“Jennifer has such a big heart and she truly truly loves your fur baby as much as you do. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND for my pup with bad depression anxiety. She gave me peace of mind knowing that my doggy was in such good hands. I will forever be grateful for Jennifer and could not recommend her enough!!”
“Stacey did a great job watching my cat! She was communicative prior to the booking. She provided detailed messages and lot of pictures. She and my cat got along great.”
“This was my second time booking with Alissa and she was just as great the this time around. One of my kitties had an accident, and Alissa helped clean up and kept me updated throughout her drop-in on how my cat was doing. She’s very reliable and definitely my new go-to for watching my cats!”
“Brianna was fantastic with our three cats! She clearly loves kitties & enjoyed keeping them company, PLUS took care of our house so well and sent the best photos of the kitty boys. Wonderful!!”
“Jolie has been super helpful. She loves animals and cares about them. She also respects and meets pet owners' needs. I couldn’t be happier with booking her. She is taking care of my babies, and I will definitely work with her again in the future.”
“Miranda was great with our cats, and they came out to see her which is rare for them! I loved the updates that she gave us while we were away. She was also super adaptable when an unexpected situation arose in our travel plan. Will definitely use her services in the future.”

About: Former full-time human medical provider of 18 years; now available for pup sitting. Takes frequent walks with the neighborhood dog pack. Owner of one special dog named Tennessee. I’m free to organize my schedule between pet sitting and working on my business. Currently available most days until July 20th! Will update calendar when I know more. I like routine. I think pets appreciate kibble and potty breaks on a familiar schedule. I will honor your wishes for care, play, walks, and socializing.
“Jenny and Darin were great! They provided updates throughout the day and took great care of our slightly anxious puppy :) Will definitely book with them again!”
“Cynthia went above and beyond for our pup. She’s so caring and thoughtful, and sent lots of updates throughout the day. What a wonderful human and pet sitter!”
“Kind and professional, very easy to work with and quick to respond. I needed somewhere for my girl to go where she could be around other dogs while I was swamped for the day, within 1 hour I had a daycare appointment set up with Brad. He sent me pictures of her smiling and cuddling while she was there. Will definitely be going back.”
“Emily made us feel extremely safe leaving our pup, Tyke, with her! She had a basket full of toys ready to show him & her home felt so cozy & welcoming. I could tell our pup felt safe with her right away & wasn’t stressed during drop off or pick up Thank you, Emily!”
“Julie let me know a new dog would be present at the same time as my dog, and she made sure to attempt to make introduce successful with a 3rd dog. She let me know she was able to keep dogs in separate areas as needed, let dogs have space from each other, and make sure my pup was safe and comfortable.”
“Angel was very accommodating with my last minute request and sent tons of photos throughout the day which I appreciated! Merlin had a blast with her dog Bell and her son! He came home tired & ready to rest which is always a nice bonus 😊 I would definitely rebook and recommend Angel for any dogs needs.”
“Manu is very flexible and communicative! She always treats our pup with the best care. Our pup is always so excited to hang with Manu! Would highly recommend Manu to anyone looking for a dog sitter who gives lots of love and care!”
“Wolfy had such a great day with Mary and her family. He can back very happy, and Mary sent several lovely photos of his time. Mary was also flexible with me when my plans changed after booking, which was so appreciated.”
About: I took care of my family's dog until I moved to college, and I really miss having a dog! Rover is perfect because it will allow me to satisfy my love for dogs while fitting with my schedule and helping you. I am also hoping to get a dog in the near future. I enjoy running and walking so having a dog with energy is not a problem as long as they are leash trained. I’m currently working from home full time. I can be flexible on when walks occur but am fairly busy between 8-5 and need some heads up to plan around meetings. I do not have a fenced in yard but will take your dog on frequent walks or as needed if you’re booking that service. I’m careful to follow instructions on how to get into your house for walks and lock up on the way out.
About: Hello there! While growing up with dogs it was very clear to me from an early age that dogs are the most warm amazing creatures. While we don't have any pets of our own right now our most recent best friend was a rescue Maltipoo who required special care and I truly adored taking care of her. Which is why you can trust me to love your family member as of it were my own! My typical day is really flexible. l workout in the morning however, I stay at home so I'm lucky my entire day has plenty of time freedom so I can love and cuddle your fur baby 24/7 which is important to me. I grew up in this area and have been here my whole life. My husband and I bought a house in Fitchburg 5 years ago and absolutely love our safe quiet little neighborhood. We have sidewalks and I love walking dogs- most likely wouldn't even see anyone else on our walks because of how quaint it is here. I can easily crate your dog if you prefer but in my home your pet is created like a human and is welcome to sleep in bed with me and to follow me around and be my shadow during the day!
About: I've cared for cats and dogs my own as well as other owners, for the last 20-plus years I also have experience with other kinds of animals. I protect animals fiercely and I am extremely receptive of detail and specifics that any pet owner may have for me. I have varied availability throughout the week and weekend. Although I have another job, and have a family, I still have flexibility to do pet care. :-) I care for my own animals deeply in one of my top priorities is meeting their needs. I probably even go above and beyond for someone else's pet as I understand that someone else is putting their fur babies in my care. I appreciate good communication and I pay attention to details that a pet owner may have for me.
“Gilian was so patient with Oakley on his first sitter experience!! She kept me updated on how he was, concerns she had, and pictures. We got stuck in a family emergency and she came through to watch Oakley last minute, I highly recommend her!!”
“Shelly was so great with my Vinnie. It was his first time staying with Shelly and he clearly had a blast. He came home happy but exhausted - perfect win. I'm so grateful Shelly was willing and able to care for Vinnie on pretty short notice - we will definitely be back :)”
“Mozart had a wonderful time playing with his new friends. We would highly recommend this doggy day care for elderly canine kids. At 13 years old, our Mozart had a wonderful time! Thank you!”
“Heather took such good care of our golden retriever pup both for overnights and daily doggy daycare! She sent us a lot of pictures of him playing with her dog and let us know how he was doing all throughout his stay! She followed all our training we’re working on with him and she was great to communicate with. Heather loves the dogs that stay with her like they’re her own, highly recommend!”

“I needed some last minute help with my senior dog, and Alissa responded back quickly and was able to help me out!! She came to meet our pets and get the layout, and helped us out almost right away! She is very kind and gentle with our Murphy and even gives our two cats some loving even though we booked her for a dog walk! As someone with OCD and anxiety, my brain and body feel comfortable and safe with Alissa taking care of our senior puppy when we aren’t at home. Looking forward to hopefully booking with her again!!”
“Laura was fantastic. We did a meet and greet the day before she started, and Hambone took to her immediately. Laura was prompt and responsive. She walked our dog while she stayed at my elderly parents house, and they were thrilled to have her. She was friendly and warm. I would not hesitate to book walks with her in the future.”
“I am so happy we found Jennifer to walk our dog. She's a very caring and responsible person. She asked great questions when we met for introductions. She was on time and let me know of schedule changes and was flexible in rescheduling. Our dog loves her. I highly recommend Jennifer to care for your pets.”
About: I was mommy to Buster for 15 years. Buster was a little 20 pound mutt who was my best friend. He went everywhere with me. Buster has been gone for 2 years now and I still miss him. I am in search of the companionship and the unconditional love he gave me. I am looking to have fun, earn some extra money and find that love and companionship animals can give to us. Watching other peoples four legged friends will give my children and I a chance to give back and help others while in turn we will gain the fun and love dogs give to us. I have to say I like dogs more than I like most people, they never judge and love us no matter what. I am a caregiver by nature and I would love to care for dogs again.
About: I have had cats for more than half of my life and dog-sat for around the same amount of time. I used to dog sit two huskies all the time, had a dog of my own for a short time, and have experience dog sitting for labs as well! I have even taken care of a bearded dragon and snake on multiple occasions. Rover does not list animals other than cats and dogs directly but I am happy to arrange care for another animal as well, including exotic animals, for a fee that can be discussed. I am volunteering at the humane society and am very involved in caring for animals as much as I have time for. I am excited and ready to care for any and all pets that need it and will stick to specific details given. I won't hesitate to ask questions about the care of your pets when I have them to make sure your pet gets the utmost care and love while you're away or busy, and id yoy have plants that need watering, say the word and I'll do that too! I am currently full time in senior year of high-school and volunteering for two hours a week on the weekends, but I graduate in a month and will have all the time in the world to pet sit! I follow every instruction for food, water, walk, and treats and ask questions if I am unsure of something. I tend to stay longer than needed for check in visits just to give pets some company if I have the time. Unless pets are not very social, they will get all kinds of attention, and if they have any anxiety or behavioral differences I will be very careful and act however is best for them. I am very sure to be on time for visits and will be very specific to follow instructions for walking or being taken outside.
“My dog loves Hannah! She is reliable and always shows up on time! She makes sure to let me know if she uses the bathroom and is overall very good at what she dos and I highly recommend her!”
“Abigail and Ian regularly walk my little man Augie and always give such sweet updates on him! I love knowing there are people in the neighborhood who have my back caring for my guy”

I am super communicative and notoriously flexible schedule wise - for I want to be with your pets as much as possible!! My home offers a large open concept for your pets to frolic around! My current schedule allows me to be really good with feeding and potty schedules! I do not have a fence, but I will spend my time outside with your animals in my spacious yard and nearby walking paths and parks!

About: I’ve owned dogs, cats, horses for years. No job is too big. I used to work in veterinary medicine as a technician. I am comfortable with medications, injections, subcutaneous fluids, etc. I currently work full time at Labcorp. I am able to stop morning and evenings around work and then more on weekends! If you need services overnight I do try to check on my kitties before settling in with your pet for the night. In the client home I am very respectful of spaces and leave it as found. I will follow all rules both for myself and for your pet. Your and your pets trust, safety, and comfortableness is my number priority.
“Ernst is super friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. We have 70 lbs adolescent pup who has a lot of energy to give. Ernst is great at keeping our pup in line. I already notice an improvement in our pet’s loose leash walking!”
About: I’m an incoming veterinary student and pet owner. I’ve grown up taking care of my cat and dog and love spending my time with animals. I have worked as a veterinary assistant for the past 3 years. Daily dog walks are an important part of my routine and I have a flexible schedule. I love meeting new people and animals on the island!

About: I have owned dogs my entire life and currently care for three of my own, giving me a wealth of hands-on experience with various breeds and temperaments. I’m skilled in providing personalized care, whether it’s for energetic puppies needing training and structure or senior dogs requiring extra patience and gentle attention. My lifelong dedication to dogs means I understand their unique needs and behaviors, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while you’re away. Over winter I'm am extremely free so I would be more then willing to spend lots of time with your pets. I am open to helping out at anytime so long as we communicate ahead of time! I have 3 dogs at home who I take on walks daily in new and fun location. I love to explore the world with my dogs. I am willing to meet your pets needs and help out in any way that is necessary.
