“Emily is a fantastic, wonderfully caring dog walker / pet care taker. We use her services for daily weekday walks for both of our dogs which have very different needs ( a 14 yr old golden doodle with mobility issues and a 10 yr old lab that still thinks she's 3 yr old spring chicken). She has also house sat over a navigation for us so that they didn't have to go into a kennel. She is trustworthy, communicative and extremely kind. You'd be fortunate to have her services.”

About: Over the years I've had many pets including cats, ferrets, dogs, hamsters, birds, snakes, lizards, and frogs. I love animals, I am a vegan, and I have always had a good, respectful relationship with animals. I've always been able to work with large dogs and do not fear them or their size. I do have a healthy respect for large dogs, but I don't fear them. I'm a cuddler, but if your pet doesn't want that, I don't force it on them. However, should your pets want all of the cuddles, I say bring it on! If you are looking for a housesitter that is unafraid of snakes, lizards, tarantulas, or other creepy, crawly pets, you've found her! I actually love spiders. I look forward to working with you and your pets! While my son is in school, I have free daytime hours that I can dedicate to your pets, for walks, quality time, feeding, medications, and more. Whatever your pet needs, I am happy to accommodate. Whether they need play time, cuddle time, quiet time, I am here for all of it!

“Had a great experience! Angelina was punctual, friendly, and took my pup on a nice 30-minute walk. Everything went smoothly, and my dog came back happy and relaxed. Highly recommend!”

“Liv did a great job taking care of Tyson today. She gave him a long walk and he seemed very happy. I would book her for an afternoon dog walking.”

“Susannah comes to our house twice a week to take our dog out for a stroll. She is very reliable, comes on time and is very responsive. Would recommend her to a friend.”

About: Adopting Benny, our now 6-year-old Australian Shepherd mix, has been one of the most meaningful and rewarding experiences of our lives. He came to us as a rescue, full of potential but also in need of patience, consistency, and care. Australian Shepherds are known for their intelligence, energy, and sensitivity—and Benny is no exception. From daily walks and mental stimulation to routine training and lots of affection, caring for him has been a constant, joyful commitment. He thrives on structure and attention, and it’s been incredibly rewarding to watch him grow more confident and connected as the years go by. Benny has taught us so much about resilience, communication, and the powerful bond that forms between a pet and their family. He’s not just a pet—he’s truly part of our family. Pet care is a daily routine for me. I'm the one who feeds, brushes, spends time with Benny and walks him on a daily basis. I provide nothing but the best for Benny. He gets toppers on his food, supplements, daily attention and walks. I'am trustworthy, reliable and will treat your animals as if they were my own.

About: Hi! I'm a fourth year medical student currently staying with my parents in Acton, MA! Currently I have an 96lb great dane mix,Brewster, and an orange cat, Cheddar (and YES--they are best friends). My partner and I got our dog at 6 weeks and I house trained my parent's golden when I was home from college one summer. I also grew up with cats + dogs and as the oldest child of three I was expected to help care for them so love and appreciation for animals is second nature to me! While in graduate school I fostered cats and kittens, often times with health issues. I am a current medical student at DUCOM. I'm available in the evenings during the weekdays and anytime over the weekend to check in on your pets! I am available for at home stop-in/ check up services for cats and dogs. I don't trust just anyone to care for my pets and I promise to care for your pets as if they were my own. As a life-long pet owner I know what weird behavior looks like for both cats and dogs. I will not hesitate to contact you if something doesn't feel right because that is what I would want someone to do if they were watching my pets.

About: I love animals and have two dogs of my own! I am very enthusiastic and have experience with skittish and nervous dogs and cats as well as puppies. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I am a college student working a part time summer job so I have plenty of time to fill with caring for and playing with your pets! I am passionate about ensuring that animals feel safe in their homes while I am there, that they have fun and get exercise, that they are well cared for, and that they get all the cuddles they want -and none if they don’t ;)

About: I worked as a vet assistant at Banfield pet hospital for 6 months. In that time learning how to handle and care for dogs/ cats of all types. I’ve had a dog myself in the past and love taking dogs on walks I’m currently unemployed and searching for a job, I’m doing rover in the meantime to make ends meet. I’ve worked with dogs plenty of times and would prioritize the walks as a way to get outside which is already part of my routine. I am able to feed and walk any dog type. I treat all animals with respect and care, putting in extra effort if needed. I love all dogs.

About: I have grown up with Cats and Dogs and have always had at least one in my house as an adult. I owned a Chihuahua that was not very nice to strangers, so I have also had my fair share of difficult moments with my dog as well. I am a huge cat lover, so send me all the kitties for care!!!! I am a school teacher with young teen children, so during the week in the Summer we are happy to help with your pet care needs. Weekends can be tough because we have sports tournaments, but ask because we have a few that we do not. I have 2 very friendly cats, but to be safe I am not sure how they will be around other animals. I am happy to care for your furry friends in your house and yard.

About: What sets me apart from other is the year of animal handling and experience. I am currently a third year Animal Science student at Umass Amherst, and I am a graduate from Nashoba Techs vet assisiting program in Westford MA. During school breaks I am available most times during the day both weekdays and weekends(I am more than willing to discuss more in detail with specifics if needed). While back at school I am available in late afternoons during week days and most of the day during weekends. I also am not able to keep your furry friend at my home for extended periods of time, but I am more than willing to go hangout with your pal in their own home. I have my own car with a pet seat cover if needed so I am able to take the higher energy pups on some hikes or more interesting adventures. I personally love being outside so don't be surprised if me and your furry friend catch up on some homework in the sun. Also don't worry about bathroom breaks I will make sure that whoever needs it can go outside whenever needed.

About: I've had dogs my entire life! I've grown up a HUGE animal lover and have often cared for my friends' dogs, cats, and other pets since I was younger. In addition, I am a volunteer with Hotel For Homeless Dogs in Providence, RI, and during the school year, I volunteer there weekly. I have experience with animals of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs! I promise to show your fur babies so much love and care, and to always treat them like my own. I currently have a part time job. This gives me a lot of flexibility and free time in my schedule. I am available most days of the week and on occasion the weekends. I will pay close attention to any and all needs of your dogs! Let me know and I will make sure to do it. I can easily crate your dog, feed/walk them at specific times, give them medicine, etc if needed.

“Our dogs were in great hands with Rachel walking them! Communication was easy and we appreciated her flexibility with minor adjustments to the schedule. Our dogs look forward to seeing her again!”

About: I have been taking care of pets for friends and family for the last 5 years and it’s always been a welcome opportunity as I was never allowed to have pets growing up. I love nature so long dog walks are never boring. I also have experience petsitting so I’ll make sure your pet is never lonely. I am able to stay with your pet all day and on weekends as well. The longest I would be out is 4 hours, but that would be very intermittent. I’m respectful of clients’ homes and I want the pet to be as comfortable as possible. If the pet makes a mess I will be sure to clean it as soon as possible and the return the place to how it looked before if not cleaner.

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats for most of my life, having had a dog and cat since I was a child. I also have experience doing home visits for both dogs and cats.
