“Gail is a superstar! I needed to find a dog sitter at the last minute and had never used Rover before. Gail responded right away and made a plan to meet me and my pup right away to confirm it was a fit. Gail did a fantastic job watching Rocky! She sent me updates and I never had to think or worry about how things were going at home during our trip. I will absolutely use Gail again and cannot recommend her enough.”


“Karen communicated wonderfully, followed our requests and send photos of the babies. We were super pleased with her and will be having her back again soon next time we are away!”


“Stephanie did a 10-star job of taking care of our sheltie Pepper. Stephanie was Pepper's dog sitter this weekend (Friday night, Saturday, and Sunday) and she did an awesome job. She communicated with us and we were very impressed with her professionalism and her expertise. Stephanie is reliable, trustworthy, and a true dog-whisperer. This is the second time we have used Stephanie and will definitely be using her again. Thank you, Stephanie!”


“Panny was great! Joy needs seizure medicine and can get picky about taking her pills. Panny brought cream cheese to tempt her and it worked. He was great with the dogs and left the house was neat when I got home. I would definitely use him again!”


“Taigh was a lifesaver - he responded immediately to my last-minute request for help to watch our little dog and stay at our house for the long weekend. He took great care of both the dog and our house, kept us posted as to our dog's goings on, and even had his mom check in on the dog when he was going to be at work for a long stint. We really appreciated the photos and texts with updates, as well as with his stripping the bed and washing the sheets. We would definitely recommend Taigh and plan to use him again for future pet/house sitting needs.”


“Our pups had a great vacation from us with Alexa! A two week stay, the dogs were relaxed and happy—looked so good I thought she might have given them a bath :-). Communication was good, regular pics and updates, quick responses to questions. The house was in good shape, too. Definitely recommend and will book again.”


“Paige was fantastic! We have a Jack Russell mix who has a lot of energy and needs to go out and walk and play a lot! Also, because of a health condition, requires a bit more care and has to be very regimented. Paige took care of everything! I was able to enjoy my vacation without any worry or hesitation that my girl would be cared for like she was Paige’s own! Bonus — She sent me pics everyday! Paige will be my go to and I would recommend her to any and everyone!”


“While we were away for a medical procedure, our 15 year old dog became quite ill, requiring lots of attention and complex caregiving — and house cleaning — as well as comforting. Caitlin managed all parts of this VERY difficult booking, which was much more than she bargained for, with competence and grace , and kept her safe and comfortable while we scheduled the Vet and raced home. We were so relieved to have such close and competent attention for our little girl, and grateful for Caitlin‘s grace and confidence at a precarious time. We can’t say enough good about Caitlin and we can’t thank herenough.”


“Brian is amazing! A true dog lover, he is friendly, engaging, responsive, communicates clearly, and frequently sending pictures and videos. Five stars!”

“Sharon was wonderful with watching and bringing our dog to our wedding. She clearly really cares about dogs and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. We felt very comfortable with leaving him in her capable hands. We will certainly have our dog stay with Sharon again when we are back on the cape! We can’t recommend her more! Thank you Sharon!!”


“Zach was so great with our dog Ducky and 2 cats. Zach was so helpful and allowed for us to enjoy our vacation knowing the wonderful care that he was providing our pets. We highly recommend Zach for any animal care needs.”


About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. My family has always had multiple dogs in our home and a house isn’t a home without a dog. For years I have cared for friends and family dogs while they were either at work or vacation. Now that I am retired I have a lot more time to give helping others who need support to care for their dog. I am available all hours of the day and night. I can pick up dogs or they can be brought to my home. I am semi retired and this allows me lots of flexibility in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard that backs up to conservation land that I use to exercise my own dogs. If allowed by owner, walks on the beach at low tide is a favorite activity for our dogs. During the summers I walk the many trails this area has to offer, many with ponds the dogs love to swim in.

“Carly was wonderful! She was easy to communicate with, always on time, and took excellent care of our Doberman.”


“Sadie did a wonderful job of looking after Otis this past weekend - lots of great walks with new friends and hanging out at home with Sadie and Tut! Would highly recommend!”


About: Hello! Animals have been a part of my life since the day that I was born. Growing up, my family always had dogs and cats in our home and since I have moved away I have a cat of my own. I love spending time with animals whether it's going on walks, playing, or relaxing on the couch! Friends and family have utilized me and continue to utilize me when the need someone to watch their furry companions. I love animals with all of my heart and I truly consider them to be another member of a family who deserve the best care, attention and love. I have cared for animals who have medical issues such as feline asthma, corneal ulcers, collapsed trachea's and UTI's. Additionally, I have experience in administering oral medicine. I keep a careful eye on each animal and have experience acting calmly and quickly in emergency situations. I currently work a full-time remote job, so drop in visits will need to be coordinated around my work schedule which varies day to day. As someone who is particular about the safety and environment of my own pet, I make sure speak with each owner to understand their preferences/needs when it comes to the safety and comfort of their animal and follow through accordingly.

“Jackie is an excellent, highly dependable, compassionate dog sitter and we would highly recommend her! She took great care of our golden, Cam, who loved his special one on one time with her. She spoiled him with great walk, massages and treats for the week we were gone. We enjoyed the pics and updates, knowing he was in the best hands. I think Cam was disappointed to have his holiday with Jackie end but we look forward to having her back again. Thank you Jackie! Two paws up from Cam🥰”
