About: Bio is underneath but first what to expect from me when you book the following services: Dog Walk: depending on your needs and likes, I will walk your dog(s) in your neighborhood or take them somewhere else if preferred. I always carry treats, doggie baggies and extra leashes. The dog will remain leashed at all times. Pick up time can vary by about up to half an hour due to other clients prior. Drop-In visit: Food and fresh water is given, as well as toilet break. To fill agreed upon 30 minutes there will be snuggles, play time or perhaps quick brushing if desired. Client may add another 30 minutes and specify if a little walk is desired as well. If an accident occurred this will be dealt with right away and added to notes and pictures. Overnight house/pet sitting: (Day 1) 7-9am; noon check in; 5-9pm. You can expect me to give Feed and fresh wate, clean up after pets(inside and outside, please provide info on where to put doggie bags after), walk, snuggle, play with as needed or desired. Stay overnight: please let me know if you do NOT want me to stay the night. The hours above will be applied here. Otherwise provide clean bedsheets. Optional: I am happy to also bring in your mail, water plants(inside and outside) and adjust lights. For my personal assessment please provide a list of those tasks as well as any other pets that may need caring for. BIO I have been a pet owner since I was a kid and have always been helping neighbors with their pets by walking their dogs for the elderly neighbors, caring for bunnies or cats and helping brush horses and moving them to pasture in my neighborhood growing up in Germany. I have been a dog, cat, and chicken owner for a while, and we even have a rabbit, and adopted a leopard gecko at some point. I am also a wife, mom of 4 kids and enjoy home making/ and a lot of home steading here on our micro farm. Staying at home and being available to my kids is priority. I am luckily they share my love for animals. I am a long time U.S. resident (since 2007), and have been raised in Germany. My English is fluent, and I have been told that I don't have an accent anymore, so communicate is definitely not an issue. I would love to care for your little furry (or not so furry) pet, may it be checking in for a feed or potty break, overnight stay, or a relaxing or vigorous walk. I am looking forward to meeting you! I am stay at home mom and have a lot of flexibility when it comes to stepping out to visit your furry friend. All I ask is to have notice and be respectful of my time and schedule. And I will reciprocate this of course! I am flexible and cater to anybody's unique needs. As long as I have ample notice and frequent communication. I am happy to send pictures and text messages during a visit/feeding if so desired. Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs prior to having kids, in my early 20’s. Summer residents and Nantucket residents where we resided before relied on me to walk and dog sit their pets. I’m currently home full time with my two boys. My oldest will be going into kindergarten in the fall and my youngest will be going to daycare part time and be home home with me the majority so I’m available/flexible. I am responsible and very protective of my kids along with clients pets. I do not have a fenced in yard but I would love to take your pet for nice long walks during the days on leash.
About: I’ve cared for cats and volunteered in cat rescue for over 20 years. I have always been the person friends, family, and neighbors trust with their pets. I currently volunteer in animal rescue, where I care for and foster kittens, senior cats, and cats with medical needs, including administering medications and monitoring their health. As a licensed Community Health Worker with over 20 years in healthcare, I bring patience, attention to detail, and reliability to every visit. I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routines, provide enrichment and affection, and keep owners updated with photos and detailed visit reports. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is currently one of my main priorities, which allows me to offer a flexible schedule and provide pets with the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as weekends and many holidays. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, medication, playtime, or companionship, I strive to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I communicate promptly and provide updates and photos after every visit so you always know how your pet is doing. Caring for animals is more than just a job to me—it’s something I’m truly passionate about. I have over 20 years of experience in healthcare, am a licensed Massachusetts Community Health Worker, and volunteer and foster with the MSPCA of Cape Cod and It’s All About the Animals, Rochester where I regularly care for and foster cats of all ages, including those requiring medications and special medical care. I understand how important it is to earn your trust, so I carefully follow every instruction regarding feeding, medications, walks, litter boxes, and household routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensure doors and gates remain secure, and always provide detailed updates with photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Taylor and Tyler took amazing care of our dog Darcy! She had a lot of fun, and was in high spirits at pickup time. It was also really nice to get updates and photos from Taylor & Tyler during her stay. We'll definitely be back next time we're visiting the area. Thanks!”

“I'm so pleased I found Glenn to host my dog for a long weekend while I was traveling. For my first Rover experience, he was great: he's experienced and kept me updated regularly with info and photos. He was very conscientious about particulars like medicine and food restrictions. I wouldn't hesitate to book him again!”

“We had a great experience with Bonnie. She was very attentive to our 2 Vizlas over a two day boarding and became great friends with her golden retriever Neptune. Will definitely rebook with Bonnie.”

“We are so grateful Michelle was available to care for our extremely large puppy Willow. It gave us peace of mind to enjoy an unexpected overnight away. Willow played a lot, Michelle sent pictures and updates, and communication was great!”

“100% satisfied with Victoria couldn't ask for any one better to watch my dog. Ty is an 18 year old morkie who requires alot of care he is completely blind and wears a diaper and Victoria went above and beyond with my dog. I knew ty was in good hands with Victoria. I will definitely leave ty with Victoria if I ever need a dog sitter again. Thank you Victoria 😊 10 stars from me ❤️”

About: I love fresh air and think it's important for dogs to be dogs and enjoy it! Even without a dog, I go for walks every day to get my puppy fix and love to be outside. I also grew up with cats and am happy to keep any and all furry friends company! I have over 15 years of experience with everything from pet-sitting to babysitting and house-sitting, and I find it important that you feel comfortable while you're away from home. I am extremely trustworthy and responsible and would love to provide that comfort to your family. I have a corporate work-from-home job that offers me flexibility to help most weekdays and weekends. I am available to be around as often as needed, whether that be one-time drop-ins or spending a day working from "home" with some furry coworkers. I always make sure everyone is safe and happy, with a healthy awareness of dog behaviors and experience with reactive animals. I clean up after myself and always leave places cleaner than I find them.
“Very warm and welcoming. Every single day I was provided with much more than I could ever ask for tenfold. I was provided with summaries of all the days activities, along with pictures. True to form, they were consistent in contacting me every day on my trip. They also provided me with some small Polaroids to keep forever. I feel like my dog has just as much of a vacation as I did! I'll definitely be contacting Mike & Craig the next time I need assistance- and their dog Omaha is SUCH a good buddy, at least for my pup. 11/10.”
