“Lauren was amazing with our dog, Coda. From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. She was warm, attentive, and truly treated him like one of her own. We got updated during the work day, and it was clear he was happy and at ease in her care. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were at work. We couldn't ask for a better sitter — Coda can't wait to go back! Highly, highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving caregiver.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats and other animals from a young age and as an adult I’ve always had pets in my home. I adore animals and love spending time with them. I’ve worked as a vet tech and cared for my own animals who have had medical issues and special needs. I work from home and am flexible for walks and boarding. My own dog, Roary, is a yellow lab who loves other dogs. We're a dog-loving family and our home is comfortable and welcoming. At my home, there's space for dogs' bed, dishes, toys - and plenty of room for them to be comfortable. My backyard is large with a secure fence and plenty of grassy area for them to run and relax.


“Wanda was very responsive and able to accomidate my dog at the last minute. She did a great job taking care of my pup for the day and I'd definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a good sitter.”


About: I have been a dog owner since 2013 when I got my first pup, The Great Gazoo! I have experience caring for puppies, elderly dogs, dogs with anxiety, and dogs with some medical needs. I am a teacher, so during the summer I am free as a bird! I spend the day outside in our fenced in yard or walking my dog in nearby Stonybrook Park. I live with my partner and 2 teenagers who also have a lot of dog experience! Your dog will be well taken care of by all of us and will receive plenty of love and attention!

I’m willing to do short term or long term clients! I usually work nights so I am very flexible during the day! I have a fenced in yard and I live in an apartment that is off of a house so there’s plenty of room for boarding!

About: I have been a dog owner for many years, with a major preference for small dogs. Not only do I have lots of experience caring for my own pets, but I have sat and cared for the dogs of many different friends and family, as well as those I don’t personally know well, over the years. I am patient, loving, always try to have fun with the dogs, and always try to give them the best care possible. I’ve had dogs all my life. I got my first dog, Lukey, when I was young and he was my best friend. Originally got him for my mother to keep her company, but fell in love with him myself and made him my own once she passed. I’d take him through the woods on walks and we eventually became inseparable. He passed at age 18. Eventually I met a woman who had two dogs of her own and they became like my kids. I had them for many years, although sadly they are all passed now as well. Currently I help care for two dogs with my ex who lives in the apartment below me, as we are still good friends. I make sure they are well cared for and take them out regularly. I love to play with them. I take dogs very seriously as they are like family to me. I can currently work Monday-Saturday, with exceptions. I do have to schedule around some minor things early in the morning, and those take priority, and those can be discussed, but otherwise I’m completely free. I love animals and always try to give them 100% of the love and attention they deserve. I feed them, walk them, take them out and play with them, and always try to give them my best. I’ve always treated my own dogs as if they were my children, and I extend that to any dog I care for.

About: I love animals! Over the course of my life I have had three dogs. One that required medication daily. I have experience with senior dogs( my last dog was 16 ). Family and friends have relied on me to take care of their dogs and cats. Currently, I am part of the Eastcoast Canine Rescue and have fostered 2 puppies and a 2 year old dog, who all got adopted. I come from a family a dogs. I have pet sat for my brothers Wheaton terriers and other pets of family and friends. I will treat your pet like they are my own! I am a stay at home mom and home most of the time. I usually walk with my dog ,Sammy 3-4 times a day. My neighborhood is great for walking and there a park very close to my house. I am very capable of taking care of puppies to senior dogs and will treat them as my own. My street and neighborhood have lots of trees that your pet can sniff! Down my street there is a park great for walking and playing. I live in a 2 family home that has plenty of room that your fur baby can play around in. I have a 13 year-old daughter and a 14 year-old son that have been around pets their whole life. They will play and care for your pet like there’s no tomorrow.

About: I’ve had the joy of raising and training a variety of dogs since I was a kid, including two beagles, a basset hound, and now my two golden retriever siblings. From 8-12 weeks, I’ve nurtured all with patience, love, and attention, teaching them skills like sitting, staying, belly rubs, and fetching without barking or showing aggression. I’m experienced with puppies and senior dogs alike, ensuring they receive the proper care and training for every stage of life. My dogs were always family, and now I’m bringing that same level of care and affection to your furry friends. Having raised my dogs from puppies to adults, I understand the unique needs of each stage, from playful pups to calm, loving companions. My focus is on maintaining a stress-free, positive environment while keeping your dog active and engaged. Whether it’s puppy training or senior dog care, I bring dedication and personalized attention to every visit. As a housewife who is home full-time, I have the flexibility to accommodate your pet’s needs throughout the week. Whether it’s a midday walk, extra playtime, or overnight stays, I’m available to provide consistent, loving care whenever your dog needs it. My routine revolves around keeping your pup happy, healthy, and relaxed! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure, fenced-in yard where your dog can play freely and safely. My two friendly pups, one social and the other more independent, provide a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. If your dog prefers more personal space, I can crate them as needed for their comfort and security. I pride myself in creating an environment where your pet will feel at home, with plenty of love and supervision every step of the way!

“Maggie is AMAZING!!! Hank loved her from the minute we arrived, her communication and photos were the best!!! Couldn’t recommend Maggie more and will DEFINITELY be coming back :)”


“Wanda was a terrific dog sitter. This was our puppy Sheva's first overnight away from home, and Wanda (and her own dog Milo) settled her down very quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to call on Wanda again the next time we need someone to watch over Sheva.”


“Bailee was great with my pup! She sent multiple updates throughout the day. Picked him up and he’s sleepy and happy. Will definitely use her again In the future :)”


“Kesandra was an absolute lifesaver for our last minute need of a puppy sitter! She was extremely knowledgeable, prepared, and welcoming. It’s hard finding pet care takers for puppies who aren’t fully house-trained yet so it was a big relief coming across Kesandra. It was also our first time using Rover and it couldn’t have been a more helpful experience for us. She had a fake grass potty training set-up ready to get Bumi more used to the texture. Kesandra even had some extra xs/s/m sweaters for Bumi to wear since it was too cold out for him. Her mini labradoodle, Simba, was the perfect companion to help teach and play with Bumi ? We really appreciated all the updates and photos/videos of Bumi she sent throughout the day, especially his interactions with Simba. Too cute! She was even able to start crate training him so when we brought him home, he was tired out which made overnight crate training a lot smoother. Kesandra also gave us tips on food specifically for poodles and how she started crate training Bumi so we could continue it in a familiar manner at home. Bumi still cried in the crate but was able to calm himself down and sleep through the night until he communicated with us that he needed to potty. Coming across Kesandra on here will probably be our highlight of the new year lol. It will be hard to top this! Definitely recommend.”

“As the owner of a lovely but sometimes stubborn Golden Retreiver Lolli F has somehow been able to wrangle him and get him to do what we need him to do … mainly not stop in the middle of the road or run after a stray squirrel. No easy task, but Wade seems to love Lolli F. Grateful for her love and guidance of our lovely but stubborn.”

“Jamie is my sister and she is always the go to person to watch my dog Milo. She’s the go to person in our family for pretty much everything. Why? It’s because you can always trust that she is competent, knows what to do and very caring. She has been a great foster to rescue dogs in need. Absolutely loves dogs and fantastic with them. Very good with training as well because she’s patient, doesn’t sweat the small stuff (poop and pee, lol) and applies common sense vs harsh correction. Your dog will be in good hands!”
