“Thank you, Mindy for keeping Embie company ALL weekend. Your being available for staying overnights with her and spending the days with her were very reassuring for her…and us!

“I felt very comfortable leaving Kona with Alex. He was well cared for and Alex took the time to communicate with me which means a lot! Kona was very calm and happy when we returned.”


“Gabriella stayed with our two dogs for 8 days while we were out of the country. We felt very comfortable having her there with them and she sent us updates everyday. One of our dogs is hairless and requires a bit more work, especially going outside since he needs clothes and boots in the winter. We came back to happy and healthy pups. Thanks Gabriella!”

About: Hello, I am a college student who is going into an environmental field, I love the wildlife and any animal, ive taken care of pets my whole life from neighbors to relatives to family friends, I am a dog person but any pet is welcomed and I always try to keep them as close to home as possible I currently have a job Monday- Friday, from 8-4 but I am always open on weekends and if its not a problem with the owners willing to take care in between my Job I always try to keep the pet care as closely similar as the animals daily schedule. I try to keep the animal stress free and relaxed, I used to spend time trying to understand these amazing animals and giving them what they need

“This was my first experience using the Rover app. I was a bit hesitant because I’ve never allowed someone in my home overnight without me before. Jessica came and met my animals the day before her stay. My dog who is extremely anxious quickly warmed up to her, and it was clear that it would be a good fit. She was very responsive, and she frequently sent me pictures and updates on how they were doing. If the opportunity arose, I would reach out to her again. I would recommend her without hesitation.”


About: I have taken care and loved pets almost my whole life. I have helped family, friends, and neighbors take care of their pets such as walking, feeding, and simply just showing them love. It fits in very good, I am almost always free and will make time if I need to. I will be busy for a few hours for certain days but can be there everyday on my free time. I will treat them with love and respect as they are my own. I will respect my clients house and rules at all times and do what is in the best interest of the pet and owner.

“Alexxis did an amazing job sitting our two French bulldogs. She kept us updated with photos regularly and the dogs loved her!”


About: I’ve been surrounded by pets since childhood, and my love for animals has only grown stronger over the years. I’m genuinely passionate about learning more about different species and what makes each one unique. My pet care experience comes from a lifetime of caring for my own animals, helping out family and friends, and volunteering whenever I get the chance. I am a full-time student, but I’m confident in my ability to manage my schedule and dedicate consistent time each week to pet care responsibilities. At home, I care for my dog by taking him on regular walks and making time for play and connection, it’s a meaningful part of my day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize following their established routines to ensure the pet feels safe, comfortable, and well-cared for in their familiar environment.

“I wish I could give more than 5 stars Nina, is an amazing dog sitter!! She kept me updated and messaged me when she came over to tend to my Niko. She even took the time to send pics and met him prior to make sure they were a match. I absolutely recommend her. Thank you Nina!!”


“Alyssa stayed at our home to watch our 12 year old German Shephered and 9 month old Belgian Malinois. We were very nervous about our Belgian as it would be the first time leaving her. Alyssa came twice to meet us and go over everything prior to the watch date. She communicated with us often and sent photos. We came home to our house in order and both of our doggies well loved. Highly recommend!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. Neighbors, friends and family have allowed me to take care of their dogs for years. I currently have a 9 year old lab and had a lab for ten years before him. Currently I am available all day and every day of the week. I am looking for a new job doing something I love to do. We have a large backyard but it’s not fenced in. I can take the dog out on a leash if needed. There is a park near my house where I walk my dog every morning. My father and mother are both home and can give your pet extra love, attention and help when needed. I have a 7 year old male lab who loves everyone and is great with other animals.

About: Friendly, trustworthy young professional with 10+ years of pet care experience. I began pet sitting/dog walking as a teenager working with my mother who is a licensed vet tech and pet care business owner. I am experienced with dogs as well as cats, and my partner and I have four cats of our own (Chester, Nell, Charlie, and Ted). I am certified in snuggling pups and providing top-notch companionship for your four-legged fur babies! I have experience administering oral, injected, and topical medications as well as other specialized services, upon request. I work full-time as a teacher in Plymouth, Massachusetts. I’m available for daily dog walks before 7am and after 3pm, although I am happy to meet your pet’s individual needs to the best of my ability! I’m eager to get outside with your canine companion and stretch our legs together! I take time to get to know my client’s pet care preferences and to develop trust—and friendship—with their pets. I typically schedule initial meet-ups to introduce myself and my services to my clients and to establish a rapport with their furry friends and to learn more about their daily routines. Establishing trust, understanding, and love with my furry friends is my foremost priority. I respect and appreciate each pet’s individual comfort and safety needs, and in doing so, I tailor my services to the individual needs of my four-legged friends.

About: I would love to be there for your friend when you can not be. Living with my best friend Peanut a Bichon I know how important it is to ensure our animal friends are in the best care. I don't know what I'd do without him. I am an animal rights advocate and love our little furry angels so much that I am caring for them full time now. I am self employed and am adding this to my artist work. This makes it possible for me to work around others schedules as best as I can or even for a last minute sitting need. I don't leave my dog outside alone and would do the same with yours. I consider dogs as toddlers in a way smart but needing guidance and protection to keep them safe. I can accommodate any requests for in your home, for outings, and for boarding at my house. I have one dog living with me now and would separate them if there was any issues. Peanut is very playful at a year and a half and not aggressive.
