“Rebekah was great walking our dogs and giving them play time out in the back! They got out to play in the snow! I got tons of pictures, and the pups got lots of love and snacks. What more could you ask for?!”

“Susan has been taking such care with my English Bulldog, George, when she takes him on walks. It has been a huge relief to have a responsible, caring person walking my dog while I am away from home for extended time.”

“Megan was so great with my large pup who has been anxious while her dad is away. I last minute needed help and Megan went out of her way to fit me into her schedule. Megan was communicative and detailed in her reports on walks. She was also on time and spent the entire 30 min+ with our pup. Would definitely book again.”

About: I have been handling and training dogs at daycares, puppy and adult day schools, and pet stores for over a decade, and I’m currently working on my certification through the Karen Pryor Academy for professional dog trainers. I prioritize safety and the use of positive reinforcement to keep dogs physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy, and I particularly enjoy helping fearful dogs become more calm and confident with clicker training. Right now I’m in the process of writing a business plan for my own company, so my availability is wide open for the time being. I am gentle, but firm and consistent. I use treats and other rewards paired with a marker to reinforce and shape the behaviors I want, and will use ‘time outs” to enforce necessary boundaries. Your dog will not pull me or get away with problem behaviors, but I also make sure not to be scary and to spend more time rewarding them when they do well. My home now has a large area with a 4ft chain link fence and a smaller potty area with a 6 ft stockade fence that exits from the basement for jumpers, puppies, and reactive dogs. I’m 20 yards away from a system of trails that I can use to hike dogs, as well as being in a neighborhood that can be used to work on distractions.

About: Hi, I’m Caroline! I’ve had the joy of owning several dogs, and my friends often trust me to care for theirs when they’re away. I’m patient, energetic, and absolutely love going on long walks. Originally from Massachusetts, I now spend most of my time in Connecticut. When your dog is with me, you can be sure they’ll get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I enjoy visiting parks, walking paths, and trails, and I’m happy to match any dog’s energy level—whether they love staying active or prefer some cozy cuddle time. I’m here to provide loving care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and even light cleaning if needed. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’d love the chance to spend quality time with yours! During the week, I have a lot of flexibility working remote so I can be around in the mornings, afternoons or evenings. Additionally, on the weekends I am almost always available! I will treat your home as if it was mine. I am clean and professional and will follow any instructions provided for your dogs needs.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years—from cuddly lap cats to energetic pups. I’m reliable, gentle, and always focused on keeping pets happy. I’m currently working part-time while going to Eastern State University so I’m pretty flexible! I’m primarily looking to work Mondays, anytime after 12 pm and Fridays. :) Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, loving environment where pets feel secure and cared for. You can trust me to treat your furry family members like my own, ensuring peace of mind while you’re away.

“Excellent service. Best walker we ever had! Thanks again!”

About: I worked at a vet clinic and have experience boarding dogs and other animals. I've grown up with animals, 6 dogs total, and extensive work with farm animals as well. I'm dependable and haven't met a dog I don't get along with. I have reliable transportation and am very flexible with my hours. I also am experienced in bathing dogs and brushing their teeth, as well as some basic training. I can transport dogs as well if you would like for me to take them to a dog park. My home is extremely animal friendly and I will always do my best to treat your pets as if they are my own. Plenty of spoiling, within reason of course! All my pets are vetted, well socialized and very well taken care of. I have fairly open availability with minimal conflicts. Any pet in my home is not left unattended for more than 6 hours at a time and only if absolutely necessary. I have a fully fenced in pen in the yard with multiple water bowls/buckets available. I have a fully finished heated/cooled basement to keep animals separated from my own or each other should that be necessary.

About: If your pet has less than eight legs, I’m here to help! I have personal ownership experience of rabbits, ferrets, cats, and dogs. I am an artist which affords me a uniquely flexible schedule that allows me to easily adapt to your needs! I’ve worked with animals of all ages and sizes! For everything I don’t know, I refer to my sister who is a certified vet tech! I’m a full-time artist meaning my schedule has near-complete flexibility.

About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life. I've taken care of them from when they were babies until old age. I've been training my family dogs since highschool. I just finished up a masters degree. I'm currently searching for jobs and have plenty of time to take care of cats and dogs at the moment. I have a fenced yard with a friendly dog who loves making new friends and a cat that will either hang out or just do his own thing.

About: Ever since August 29th of 2018 I've been a mother to my beautiful dog named Daisy (Yorkipoo). If only she could speak, she would probably let you know that I'm always up at the crack of dawn to make sure that shes able to go outside and do her business and then as soon as we get home will I make her breakfast for her as well. I'm a very attentive person when it comes to taking care of animals in general to be honest. I'll always make sure that the animal is OK before taking care of myself. I can promise you that you can not go wrong with hiring me. Only thing that I do require is for whoever hiring me, to be OK with me bringing my dog Daisy, since I do take care of her full time. At the moment, I am taking time to just relax and focus on myself, so that means that I am fully available with no limitations! I will ensure to follow all the rules, treat your pet(s) like they were my own pet(s), make sure to show them lots of love & affection - unless of course they would hate that lol.

About: Hello! My name is Meghan and I have a love and passion for all kinds of animals. I am currently a part time veterinary assistant and am available for walks and drop-in visits. I have never known a life without pets. Growing up, my family always had dogs, including two German Shepherd police K9s and even a dog who used a wheel chair. Having both working dogs and pet dogs in the house has given a firm understanding of the differences between them, as well as helped me to feel comfortable around multiple different breeds. I have also bred and whelped both German shepherd and Labrador retriever puppies. Currently, my husband and I have two Labrador retrievers, five cats and four goats. I would love to take my passion for animals and turn it into a business one day, which is why I decided to start on Rover. I am currently available for dog walking and drop in visits for socializing and potty breaks. Please contact me for any kind of pet care you may need! I am currently a part time veterinary assistant! I am available during the following hours for walks and drop-in visits: Monday 2pm - 6pm Wednesday 9am - 6 pm Thursday 9am - 12pm Saturday & Sunday 9am - 6pm I have reliable transportation, and will treat your pets as if they are my own. Their safety and happiness is the most important thing to me.

If you need check ins or walks I also have a reliable vehicle to come provide care in your neck of the woods as well 😊 My schedule is pretty flexible. I am usually available everyday of the week and weekends! Due to the fact that we have pets of our own, we have made sure that pet care has a well reserved amount of time out of our day. Our dog Millie is one of the most social dogs we have ever seen and gets along with all animals, so during the stay your pet will have a built in best friend. Any special needs or care instructions are respected and followed of course. All animals are fed separately so there is no need to worry about any food aggressions!
