“Connor was a lifesaver coming to drop-in and feed/let our dogs out when my husband was unexpectedly away and I was at work. The dogs love him and we’re so grateful to have someone we trust come take care of our boys!”


About: I’ve worked in the professional animal care industry for 3 years and have owned pets for 12. I’ve worked in training, grooming, pet care, and veterinary care for cats and dogs. I work part time and have many days available for pet sitting, walking, and spending quality time with them! I can even do extra visits as I have lots of free time. I’m a runner and spend many hours outside and can do so with your pet! I always keep pets leashed when outside and never treat them to table scraps. Owners instructions are top priority and will be done and followed above all.

About: I am a 2nd year veterinary student at Tufts. I grew up with animals and have 3 cats and a horse of my own. I worked as a veterinary technician in college as well as working at Tufts this summer. I am extremely responsible and knowledgeable. I am able to give medications, injections, and anything else that is needed for your pet to feel their best I am working part time this summer at the Tufts hospital with varying days. I am working mostly nights so most of my days are free. I have a safe and reliable car to travel for your pets. I have a lot of dog walking and behavior experience. I am also well versed in cat care. I will provide precise care as well as unlimited love and affection. Nothing makes me happier than spending time with animals!

“As always, Marcella does a great job with my kitties. Attentive to all their needs and takes care of everything that requires her care; mail, takes the garbage out, changes the litterbox, feeds the birds(!) thank you again Marcella for a great experience for my babies.”


“This was one of the best decisions we made. Haley checked on our buddy, Dale. We were getting married and using such a communicative and great sitter made everything that much easier. Super pleased and would rebook in a second!”


About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. My dog recently passed in March and I would love to be able to help others with their dogs and give them love! I have dog sat numerous times for family and friends, I genuinely enjoy taking care of pets. I have a gecko and chinchilla, so if there are other pets in the house no worries. I’m very excited to get to know you and your dogs! I currently work full time at a college in Worcester county. I am free most nights and weekends, I also work from home on Thursdays so my schedule is more flexible then. I take the safety and security of your home and your pets very seriously. I will make all the necessary precautions and double check I have secured your home prior to departure so you and your pet are safe!

About: I have experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats. My responsibilities included feeding them, taking dogs on walks, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure they had fresh water. I also spent time playing with them and giving them attention so they felt comfortable while their owners were away. I'm reliable, gentle, and always make sure pets are safe and cared for. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a wide range of pet sitting needs. Whether it's early morning visits, midday check-ins, or evening care, I'm able to adjust my availability, making it easier for pet owners to feel confident that their pets are in good hands no matter the situation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, respectful, and trustworthy environment—for both the pet and the owner. I follow all instructions carefully, keep the space clean, and make sure doors, gates, and routines are handled exactly as requested. I give regular updates, including photos and messages, so the owner feels connected and reassured while away. I treat their home with care and their pets like family, building trust through reliability, communication, and genuine attention to detail.

“Taylor was awesome! She is took care of our kitties really well, and sent wonderful photos with detailed updates. We will definitely be booking her again next time that we need someone to check on our babies.”



About: I love playing with and care for cats and dogs. I've trained my cat to go outside on a harness and leash and to do a few tricks! I'm a teacher currently on summer vacation and I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to come and care for and play with your pet. At this time, I would come to your house to provide care for your pet because I have my own cat at my house who doesn't get along well with others.

“Stacy was wonderful! Very communicative and easy to work with. She came over for a meet and greet ahead of time and showered our sweet foster, Petey with lots of love. He was so happy to see her and was totally at ease. You can tell Stacy really cares for the animals she takes care of! Will definitely book Stacy again!”


“Emily was wonderful! It was my first time using Rover. Emily did a meet and greet with Lucy before the booking. I could tell right away, I made the right decision. Emily was prompt and spent quality time with my Lucy. Emily sent many pictures of her visit and sent me a detailed report after the visit. I will definitely book Emily again. She put my mind at easy. I highly recommend Emily! 🐾🐕🦺😍”


“Lindsay was fantastic! We went away for 3 days and Lindsay did a great job taking care of Gracie. She sent us multiple photos each visit and her girls were great with her as well. Lindsay made it easy and stress free as she completed all instructions we provided without any additional questions. I highly recommend and will be using her again! :)”


About: I have owned 9 dogs in my life ranging from 150 lbs to 10 lbs, often times having to walk 3 at once. I am capable and experienced with the whole summer to walk pets now that teaching is done for the year. I have the summer off so Monday-Friday I am free to do anything. Almost treat it like a full time job. I start back working in September. I have a dog and a cat with a fenced in yard. I have had 9 dogs in my life and know how to take care of specific needs for them.

About: Hello! A little about me: I have several years of caring for dogs and cats both personally and professionally, starting around age 11 with Oliver my first dog. I now have Leilah, my extremely lovable Labrador, and Lance my old boy who is a Coonhound and a retired service dog, they both get along with everyone! I also have 2 sons who both share my love of dogs! We have cats but they are used to dogs and tend to keep to themselves anyway. They are generally tolerant of all dogs, as long as they are friendly and do not chase them. Prior to COVID19 I worked full time in a dog daycare and boarding facility, so I have both personal and professional dog handling and grooming experience. I enjoy spending my time caring for animals, and doing my part in keeping them, and their families happy and healthy! Any dog in my care is treated like my own. We look forward to caring for your furry family member! I am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to care for your dog, they will rarely be left alone and will have plenty of potty breaks and outside time! I have a fenced in yard, so as long as your dog does not have a history of hopping fences they are free to roam and lounge in the yard. If your pet is a fence hopper I will only bring them out on a leash.

About: I've been around cats and dogs my whole life. I currently have 4 fur babies of my own, 4 dogs and 1 cat. I have experience caring for puppies as young as 10 weeks and geriatric cats as well. I currently own a skincare & massage business, which gives me complete control over my schedule which allows me to fit dog walking and pet caring into my schedule and be flexible. I live in a nice quiet neighborhood that's great for walks, a yard to play in and also live close to many walking trails and dog park.

About: Dogs are a huge part of my life! I have 3 dogs so I understand firsthand the love, care and attention they need! I also have extensive experience volunteering with shelter dogs giving them exercise and socialization they need through both walking and running trails. I know how important exercise, structure and loving care are for a dog’s wellbeing and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m here to help! I do work part time as a small business owner and am also volunteering at dog shelters throughout the week. I am available most mornings and early evenings. I have a huge yard although not fenced in but live walking distance to a dog park. I can also walk your dog in the neighborhood or on trails where they can enjoy nature!

About: I have loved animals and have grown up with animals my whole life. I’ve always had multiple animals, cats and dogs at the same time. I have had the experiences of growing up with two cats with very large personalities, a puppy to 3 year old newfoundland, and a very anxious, attention needing senior golden retriever (also deathly afraid of thunderstorms/rain and any loud noise ever). All have had an array of medical problems ranging from diabetes, kidney issues, torn acl/ligaments, arthritis, etc. I also have also always been considered my whole extended family’s dog sitter! I have been trusted by many family members and friends with their animals for feeding, walking/exercising, bathing/brushing, etc. I haven’t met an animal I have not been able to form a friendship with! I’m currently a college student on summer break with reliable transportation in Northbridge. I am available for sitting the entire week and I am always available for quick stop by for a walk/play session! I also am available for weekend stays. I can follow any precautions/instructions to keep your pet happy, comfortable, and safe! I am familiar with pets that use crating, electric fencing, or have anxiety, anything else you might need to take extra measures for the comfort of your pet! I can be attentive to dietary needs, preferred activities and each individual dog's comfort level around strangers. If your pet has specific needs, you can trust that I will be able to learn everything I need to know to take the best possible care of your pet.

About: I have 8 years of experience taking care of my own cat as well as cat/dog sitting for the past 3 years. I will love them like they’re my own and you can trust they’ll be in good hands. I will also check in on any other creature during the time you are gone! I work full time Monday through Friday in Westborough, MA. I can stop in after work and I have full availability on the weekends to walk your pets and feed them or house sit if you’re more comfortable with that. I want to build a relationship with my clients. I like to see how their routines with their pets are prior to taking care of their fur babies. Your comfortability is important to me!

I have found Mya to be very trustworthy.
