If I could give Rebecca more than five stars, I would! From the moment she walked in and greeted our pups, we knew they would be in good hands and we did not have to worry while we were attending a family wedding. Her skills at handling two puppies was nothing short of impressive. Her communication and people skills also made her a standout. She was super pleasant from the get go and made our first experience with Rover was wonderful! Thank you Rebecca!

This was Millie’s very first overnight stay without us — a big deal for our 11-month old Cavalier! Jaime followed her routine beautifully, took her out frequently, and checked in a few times per day with photos and updates. She handled everything with warmth and care. Our home and our girl were in the best hands. Highest recommendation!

Jack has been a terrific sitter for our dogs. He shows up exactly when he says he will, which already puts him in rare company, and he stays consistently communicative. We get updates and photos throughout each visit, and it’s clear he genuinely enjoys spending time with our girls. He also takes their “loud greetings” in stride—they give him an earful every time he arrives, and he never flinches. Reliable, responsive, and unfazed by a couple of vocal pups, Jack has been a real find!

Preston watched my 2.5 year old sheepadoodle Archie for just under 2 weeks while I was traveling. I highly recommend Preston to anyone who needs a house sitter. He was great with Archie and provided me updates as needed and was easy to get a hold of. He even began training Archie on some different skills. He even left my house cleaner than when I left it. Preston was a great choice for house sitting and I will definitely try to use him again if I ever need someone to watch my pup and house!

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to each pet. While my experience has mainly been caring for my own dogs, that has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand a pet’s individual needs. I’m attentive to routines, behavior changes, and comfort levels, especially with senior dogs or pets that need extra reassurance. I take instructions seriously, communicate clearly, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my days around pets’ needs, including regular walks, feeding times, playtime, and check-ins. Because I’m home often, I can provide close supervision, timely care, and lots of attention. I’m reliable with schedules and able to accommodate last-minute requests, early mornings, or extended stays when needed. II care for pets by following each owner’s specific instructions and keeping their routine as consistent as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, fresh water at all times, regular potty breaks or walks, playtime, and lots of attention and affection. In my client’s home, I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and supervised. I keep their area clean, secure, and stress-free. I’m attentive to behavior changes, appetite, or energy levels, and I communicate updates and photos to owners for peace of mind. If medication is required, I follow instructions carefully. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their comfort, health, and happiness.

We love Jacquie! She is flexible and reliable. Our dog smiles on the photos she takes of him. Best indicator that he lives her. Also our plants survived after we were gone for ten days. Also thankful for that!

Emily was super excited to stay with my pups even with their quirks and was able to book within a week of my vacation and meet them when I had a last minute cancelation with someone else! She was very responsive both before and during my trip and kept me updated about my dogs with pictures which was super appreciated! She was also able to give medication to one of them as needed and follow the food directions as well as made time to sit with one of them who will only eat with company. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!

Jill took great care of our doggos! We are very happy we found her and have already booked for a repeat stay later this summer. We booked way in advance and she was great about coming to meet the dogs, not once (early), but twice (the week of our trip). You can tell she loves dogs and was so patient with our shy one. She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures!

About: I worked in the animal industry for the last six years and have been a certified Dog Trainer for the last five. I have experience with senior dogs; Medication and specific dietary needs. I have two for babies at my own. Being a pet owner and working in the animal industry, I understand how nerve-racking it is to trust somebody with your pets care. I’m looking to create peace of mind. Monday through Friday early morning and late evening. Saturday 9AM to 12PM I’m absolutely willing to create more of a flexible schedule upon request with ample notice. Currently in an apartment with a medium to large dog and a cat. Not currently offering boarding in Connecticut. The house in New York has a 6 foot fence with large amount of yard space.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and currently have three dogs at my parents house that I care for regularely when my parents need me to and I love it. I’ll come with treats and if your dog has any dietary restrictiond please let me know :) I’m currently working for Arc Midhudson on thurs-Sun at the moment! Sometimes there is variation in that schedule but that it for the most part :) I have a medical condition that may make me have to re schedule appointments but hopefully we can work together on it !! I could teach your dogs some basic tricks like sit and I am a good leash handler. I carry around a fanny pack with my dog stuff in it so it’s hands free and accessible for me.

I knew the minute I saw Sam with my pup that I could go away & that all would be well. She did a week of housesitting with my golden retriever. Sam is sweet, personable & very capable. I got texts & pics and few times a day. They went for walks when it wasn't too hot, played and did lots of snuggle time. Thanks again for everything, Sam! ❤️
