About: I’m experienced with High energy breeds and dogs of all temperaments. I have cared for a spirited German short haired pointer daily since she was a puppy, ensuring her exercise and play needs were met to support her older owner. I’ve also cared for various needy dogs, tailoring playtime to their unique energy levels whether it’s a game of fetch, tug-of-war, or puzzle toys. Beyond exercise, I provide plenty of cuddles to make dogs feel loved while their owners are away. My goal is to provide your dog with the same love and attention that you do! My schedule is mostly flexible. I am able to accommodate weekday bookings and weekends with advance notice. I can also offer holiday care when requested. I have experience with dogs that have a tendency to pull on the lead during walks. I have learned the best way to handle this is to shorten the leash, offer positive affirmations and treats for good behavior. Tell me more about your dog so I can ensure they will be safe!

About: I’ve been pet sitting for neighbors with both dogs and cats since I was 13. Currently I have two cats of my own, Puck and Toast and love to visit my parents’ three dogs! In particular, I’m great with shy and unfriendly cats. I am currently working remotely from home and make my own schedule, so it’s easy to fit your pet’s care into my daily routine based on their needs. Once I’ve given your pet some love and affection and tend to their immediate needs, I’ll do a quick sweep of the common areas to make sure there’s no mess and everything is exactly as you left it!

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life. Even through college and grad school, I had roommates with pets. Now I’m living in a rental that doesn’t allow animals, so I’m hoping to find some local pets to care for and spend time with! I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all ages and activity levels since I was young, and I enjoy taking dogs for walks any time of year! I’m a middle school teacher, so I have a pretty consistent schedule from August-June. Most days I’m able to leave work by 3, so I have all afternoon and evening to care for pets. In the summer and on breaks, I have a lot more flexibility with my schedule. I do have a small fenced in yard in case I had a client’s pet in my home, though I’d more than likely care for the pets in the client’s home. I have experience feeding, bathing, crating, giving meds, walking, and snuggling dogs of all ages and activity levels, as well as feeding and giving meds to cats.

About: I’ve always had dogs of my own since I was little, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve looked after dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to slower-moving seniors—and I’m comfortable with things like crate training, giving medications, and sticking to your pet’s routine. I truly love being around animals. I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Whether they need lots of playtime or just a calm, cozy space, I adapt to meet their needs. Even with a busy schedule as a student-athlete, I always make time for pet care. I’m available mornings, during the day, evenings, and weekends, and I’m willing to adjust things to make it work for you and your pup! When caring for pets in your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they get their walks, meals, playtime, and any special care they need... all while respecting your space and keeping everything tidy. They’ll have a safe space, plenty of attention, and lots of love!

About: I’ve lived with animals all my life and have experience with several different species, including dogs, cats, birds, and rodents. I have been responsible for my own pets since a young age and am familiar with general care, as well as administering oral and topical medications. I am a lover of all animals and am not easily frightened by them. Neighbors, friends, and family members typically turn to me if they need pet care for a trip. I am working part-time and attending college part-time, so there’s plenty of free spots in my schedule to turn my attention to pet care! I am quite flexible although my availability may change from week to week, so be sure to take a look at my I am confident but gentle when working with pets and I would never do a job I didn’t feel comfortable with. Safety for both me and the pet is my top priority! If I agree to any service you are requesting, you can know that I feel 100% confident I can do the job well.

About: I have had dogs my entire life and I deeply care for them and love them. They always bring me great joy when I get to play with them and take care of them. I love to go for walks and hikes. I also enjoy going to parks and the beach when possible for long walks. I take care of my parents two cocker spaniels when they are away. I helped train my parents dogs and helped raised them from when they were puppies. I have also fostered an older dog with medical issues and have experience dealing with dog medication. I work full time and am looking to make money on the side. I can stop in before work, middle of day and after work and I’m free weekends. I care for my own pet every day from taking her for walks, food, daily medication and lots of cuddles. Working from home allows me to be flexible with my schedule to include caring for others pets. I care for your pets just a kind and loving as you would. I fully believe they are part of a family and should be treated that way. I will respect your home and any requests you may have for your pets.

About: I'm currently the behavior manager for our dog team at Our Companions Animal Rescue. I work at our sanctuary where I manage a team of competent handlers and I work with reactive/aggressive dogs. I'm currently working on getting my CPDT. If you hire me, I promise your canine companion will receive the care, compassion, patience, and attention they deserve. I'm generally always free Sundays and Mondays. I do work full-time Tuesday to Saturday, so my availability is somewhat limited. I can provide my dog walking/activity assistance after 4pm on those work days, except Fridays. Due to my long history and experience working with dogs, I have the ability to read dogs very well to detect if they are anxious, fearful, or uncomfortable. My goal is to make sure your dog gets exactly what they need, whether it's a certain activity they enjoy, training they need, or a certain destination they love for their outdoor time. Positive reinforcement is the name of the game.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life—I’ve grown up around dogs and have personally raised both a German Shepherd and a Yorkie Terrier, giving me experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I’ve also cared for cats, horses, and farm animals for years, so I’m comfortable with pets of all kinds and ages. From feeding and walking to bathing and playtime, I’ve done it all. I’m great at reading animal behavior and helping them feel safe, happy, and well-cared for. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine! I work part-time with a flexible schedule, so I’m available on my days off as well as before or after my shifts. I love spending time with animals, so I’m excited to fill my free time caring for pets and helping out fellow pet parents whenever I can! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow your routine as closely as possible so your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. I stick to feeding and walk schedules, give them lots of love and attention, and always keep an eye on their behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy. I also treat your home with respect—keeping things clean, secure, and just the way you left them. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel totally comfortable and at ease during the time I’m there.

About: Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a lifelong dog lover and dedicated dog trainer with years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From cuddly couch potatoes to high-energy working breeds, I’ve built a strong understanding of canine behavior—and I absolutely love what I do. I offer dog boarding, doggy daycare, drop-in visits, and dog walks, with flexible availability to fit your schedule. Whether your pup needs a fun-filled day of play or a cozy place to stay while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. My walks may be priced a bit higher, but they come with added value: if you’d like, I’ll incorporate leash manners and basic obedience training into the walk at no extra cost. It’s a great way to keep your dog mentally and physically engaged while reinforcing positive behavior. My doggy daycare service is perfect for busy pet parents who want their dogs to enjoy a full day of enrichment and social time in a safe environment. I offer transportation for daycare (and overnight boarding) within a reasonable distance in my dedicated van, which is equipped with secure crates for safe and comfortable travel. Your dog will have access to a full acre of securely fenced yard to run, play, and explore—plus a dog-friendly pool to cool off in during hot days! To ensure a safe and structured environment, all dogs will be crate rotated throughout the day. Crate rotation provides dogs with the rest and structure they need while preventing overstimulation and helping maintain a peaceful group dynamic. Safety is always my number one priority! I’ve previously worked in an animal hospital, so I’m also experienced in administering medications and providing attentive care for dogs with special health needs. Whether it’s pills, or a customized care routine, I make sure your dog is comfortable and well cared for. Right now, I’m in the exciting process of growing my dog boarding and training business full-time. I’ve completely finished and transformed my basement into a dedicated board-and-train facility to provide a safe, clean, and enriching environment for every dog that stays with me. I’m currently working on obtaining all the proper licensing to operate at the highest professional standard. For now we’re going through Rover! For everyone’s safety, all dogs staying overnight will be crated during sleeping hours and when unsupervised. This helps ensure the well-being of your pup as well as the safety of other dogs in my care. Each crate setup is comfortable and designed to help your dog feel secure and relaxed. I bring energy and enthusiasm to every interaction—whether I’m caring for a laid-back senior dog or working with a high-drive sport dog. I also compete in dog sports with my own dogs, so I’m extremely comfortable handling all energy levels. While I’m not yet a certified dog trainer, I’m actively working toward professional dog training credentials to continue growing my knowledge and giving each dog the best care possible. I use only positive, reward-based training methods that help dogs feel safe, confident, and loved. If you’re looking for someone who brings both experience and heart to every visit, walk, or overnight stay, I’d love to meet you and your pup. I truly can’t wait to meet my new clients—both human and canine—and welcome every dog into my care as if they were my own. Your pup will be treated like family every step of the way!! Positive Puppy Training Sessions 🐾 I offer private, positive-based puppy training sessions designed to help your pup build confidence, learn good manners, and strengthen their bond with you. • Single Session: $90 • Training Bundle: $80/session (4 sessions total – 1 session a week for a month) The bundle covers all the puppy basics: ✅ Recall (coming when called) ✅ Sit, Stay, and Down ✅ Leash Manners ✅ Handling Puppy Biting Every session is fun, personalized, and focused on setting you and your puppy up for long-term success. ✨ Free consultations available! I’m happy to chat with you beforehand to see how I can best support you and your pup. Taking care of pets is what I do every day—it’s the heart of my business. I offer full-time boarding, daycare, and training from my home, which is set up just for dogs. Every day is planned around keeping dogs safe, happy, and engaged, making sure each one gets the attention and care they deserve. At my home, dogs enjoy a safe, structured environment with crate rotation, a fenced acre to run, and a pool to cool off. I treat every dog like my own, keeping things fun but safe. For drop-ins and walks, I follow any care instructions closely and can include basic training or medication if needed. Your dog’s safety and happiness always come first!

About: I was previous owner of a pit and a chihuahua, I have a love for dogs. I can truly relate to anyone when it comes to someone truly caring about your dog, you want them to be treated like children, cared for like children. It’s something I will provide every time that I am with them, I can truly say dogs know who does it from the heart and who doesn’t. I currently work during the for Autistic support and have been working with children of all age groups for more than 10 years, like I stated before I am previous owner of a pit and chihuahua , they are currently is with my mom due to the move she made and me getting married she wanted to take them with her.

About: (See note at bottom about available hours). Birds, dogs, cats, snakes, chickens, chinchillas, lizards, fish, and even tarantulas! I’m a lifelong animal lover, and since I started house/pet-sitting in high school, I’ve cared for a huge variety of animals. I adore animals of all shapes and sizes, and I have so much fun getting to meet new fur-buddies and taking care of them while their owners are away! I know how important our pets are, and I will treat each pet with the love and care I give my own. I am also used to giving medicine to animals if necessary, as well as providing a little extra support to older or special needs pets, so just inform me if there's anything your pet needs from me that I should know about beforehand. NOTE: I am unable to stay overnight in your home. However, I am still available to house-sit for those of you that don’t mind if I come by late at night and early in the morning and just don’t stay overnight. The reason I’m still including the option to book me for house-sitting is that it’s much cheaper for you than it is to book individual drop-ins for each day, plus I can hang out for longer than drop-ins in most cases. Sorry for those of you that need someone to stay overnight, I hope you understand, and fortunately there’s lots of great sitters on Rover that can watch your fur-babies instead if that’s the case! My schedule is very flexible, as I work from home. It is possible to bring some work with me, but it takes me longer to do things in that case, so I most likely will return home to work. However, since I make my own hours, I can stop by anytime morning, day, or evening to spend time with your fur babies! For some cases I can bring my laptop with me to your home, just ask me about it when you reach out! I love to play and cuddle! My own cats are quite spoiled with pets and toys of all kinds. I do not currently have a dog, but when I did, we went for walks daily and played tug and fetch. I love all fur-babies and yours will receive the same love and care I’d want for my own if I were away! I also love to give kitty and doggy massages, but always start gentle and make sure your pet likes it before continuing. I’ve yet to meet a dog that doesn’t love getting a massage - cats are hit or miss though!

About: I currently have a 16 poodle in China which I grow up with. Every summer when I go back to China, I walk him three times a day. Every time during midnight, I will take him out run with him. Which might be the reason he is still looking very healthy. I’m currently a student at UConn, this is my last semester and I am only having 1 class in Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon from 2:30pm to 3:30pm. I am also couch a basketball club, and we will most likely to have practice on Saturday 7pm to 9 pm I will most likely to the pet at the place I am able to have my eyes on and make sure I know what are they doing to keep them out of danger

About: Ive been taking Ghost for 3 years now. In the past I’ve helped friends take care of their pets. This is a opportunity for me to learn more about pet caregiving. Pet care is integrated into my daily routine and is a source of joy, companionship, and responsibility. For example, each morning and evening there is a time for Ghost and I to eat feed, walk, and play. Other tasks, such as grooming or administering medication, may be performed on a more infrequent basis. I like to know what basic necessities such as food, water, and shelter, as well as regular exercise, grooming, and playtime are for each pet. Depending on the type of pet, it may also involve providing medical care and regular check-ups.

About: Hi all. I have extensive, life long experiences with a variety of animals. From cats and dogs to pet birds, bearded dragons, aquariums and more! I have experience with newborn elderly, and expecting animals, and their unique needs. We currently have a large (150lb) dog, named Hades. We got him after our 2 eldery dogs (1 was a resuce at 2years old, and 1 I had from 4months to 16 years) passed. We have 3 fairly spoiled indoor cats that are living their best lives. I am also certified I'm pet CPR and first aide. I truly love caring for animals and giving them the healthiest, happiest lives possible. I am currently managing our home/family, and working part time from home. I have plenty of time to fill, and a flexible schedule available for your pets needs! We crate train at home for our pets safety. His crate is his happy place, and I believe can be helpful for creating a sense of security.

Tyler took amazing care of my dog while I was away for a long weekend. My little one is reactive and a big puller. I was very impressed with Tyler’s patience as he was able to safely take her on 2-3 shorter walks per day. Not only did Tyler make sure she had enough exercise, but he also made sure she had plenty of love and cuddles. She was so sad to see him leave! I would highly recommend Tyler- he will look after your dog like they are his own!

Kelsey is a phenomenal pet sitter! She has taken care of my cats for years and not only follows their care instructions to the letter but took the time to get to know them, play with them, and spend quality time with them when I couldn’t be there. I have always been able to leave my pets in her care knowing they would be well cared for. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets!

About: I have had dogs my entire life and I deeply care for them and love them. They always bring me great joy when I get to play with them and take care of them. I love to go for walks and hikes. I also enjoy going to parks and the beach when possible for long walks. I take care of my parents two cocker spaniels when they are away. I helped train my parents dogs and helped raised them from when they were puppies. I have also fostered an older dog with medical issues and have experience dealing with dog medication. I work full time and am looking to make money on the side. I can stop in before work, middle of day and after work and I’m free weekends. I care for my own pet every day from taking her for walks, food, daily medication and lots of cuddles. Working from home allows me to be flexible with my schedule to include caring for others pets. I care for your pets just a kind and loving as you would. I fully believe they are part of a family and should be treated that way. I will respect your home and any requests you may have for your pets.

Carla has been great with my girls Mouse and Ivy. She is super dependable. She is always prompt with her communication and always lets me know if there is anything out of the ordinary during her visits and walks, which I appreciate very much. I recommend Carla, without reservation, for your pet care.

I love my animals more than anything in the world. Lucas has been my go to person when it comes to watching my cats when I am away for years. He has come on short notice when I’ve had family emergencies, and stopped in when one of my cats was very sick without hesitation. There is absolutely no one I trust more than him when it comes to the welfare of my animals. I would recommend Lucas to anyone without a second thought. He will care for and love your animals as if they were his own.

Sophia is an amazingly responsible young woman who has been taking care of animals since she was 4 years old (if you need proof I have pictures of her cleaning a pony’s hooves at her first barn) She will of course be punctual and follow any instructions, but beyond that she has a heart for pets that is truly exceptional. I also can attest to this because she takes care of my dog all of the time and he adores her!!

About: Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a lifelong dog lover and dedicated dog trainer with years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From cuddly couch potatoes to high-energy working breeds, I’ve built a strong understanding of canine behavior—and I absolutely love what I do. I offer dog boarding, doggy daycare, drop-in visits, and dog walks, with flexible availability to fit your schedule. Whether your pup needs a fun-filled day of play or a cozy place to stay while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. My walks may be priced a bit higher, but they come with added value: if you’d like, I’ll incorporate leash manners and basic obedience training into the walk at no extra cost. It’s a great way to keep your dog mentally and physically engaged while reinforcing positive behavior. My doggy daycare service is perfect for busy pet parents who want their dogs to enjoy a full day of enrichment and social time in a safe environment. I offer transportation for daycare (and overnight boarding) within a reasonable distance in my dedicated van, which is equipped with secure crates for safe and comfortable travel. Your dog will have access to a full acre of securely fenced yard to run, play, and explore—plus a dog-friendly pool to cool off in during hot days! To ensure a safe and structured environment, all dogs will be crate rotated throughout the day. Crate rotation provides dogs with the rest and structure they need while preventing overstimulation and helping maintain a peaceful group dynamic. Safety is always my number one priority! I’ve previously worked in an animal hospital, so I’m also experienced in administering medications and providing attentive care for dogs with special health needs. Whether it’s pills, or a customized care routine, I make sure your dog is comfortable and well cared for. Right now, I’m in the exciting process of growing my dog boarding and training business full-time. I’ve completely finished and transformed my basement into a dedicated board-and-train facility to provide a safe, clean, and enriching environment for every dog that stays with me. I’m currently working on obtaining all the proper licensing to operate at the highest professional standard. For now we’re going through Rover! For everyone’s safety, all dogs staying overnight will be crated during sleeping hours and when unsupervised. This helps ensure the well-being of your pup as well as the safety of other dogs in my care. Each crate setup is comfortable and designed to help your dog feel secure and relaxed. I bring energy and enthusiasm to every interaction—whether I’m caring for a laid-back senior dog or working with a high-drive sport dog. I also compete in dog sports with my own dogs, so I’m extremely comfortable handling all energy levels. While I’m not yet a certified dog trainer, I’m actively working toward professional dog training credentials to continue growing my knowledge and giving each dog the best care possible. I use only positive, reward-based training methods that help dogs feel safe, confident, and loved. If you’re looking for someone who brings both experience and heart to every visit, walk, or overnight stay, I’d love to meet you and your pup. I truly can’t wait to meet my new clients—both human and canine—and welcome every dog into my care as if they were my own. Your pup will be treated like family every step of the way!! Positive Puppy Training Sessions 🐾 I offer private, positive-based puppy training sessions designed to help your pup build confidence, learn good manners, and strengthen their bond with you. • Single Session: $90 • Training Bundle: $80/session (4 sessions total – 1 session a week for a month) The bundle covers all the puppy basics: ✅ Recall (coming when called) ✅ Sit, Stay, and Down ✅ Leash Manners ✅ Handling Puppy Biting Every session is fun, personalized, and focused on setting you and your puppy up for long-term success. ✨ Free consultations available! I’m happy to chat with you beforehand to see how I can best support you and your pup. Taking care of pets is what I do every day—it’s the heart of my business. I offer full-time boarding, daycare, and training from my home, which is set up just for dogs. Every day is planned around keeping dogs safe, happy, and engaged, making sure each one gets the attention and care they deserve. At my home, dogs enjoy a safe, structured environment with crate rotation, a fenced acre to run, and a pool to cool off. I treat every dog like my own, keeping things fun but safe. For drop-ins and walks, I follow any care instructions closely and can include basic training or medication if needed. Your dog’s safety and happiness always come first!

About: Ive been taking Ghost for 3 years now. In the past I’ve helped friends take care of their pets. This is a opportunity for me to learn more about pet caregiving. Pet care is integrated into my daily routine and is a source of joy, companionship, and responsibility. For example, each morning and evening there is a time for Ghost and I to eat feed, walk, and play. Other tasks, such as grooming or administering medication, may be performed on a more infrequent basis. I like to know what basic necessities such as food, water, and shelter, as well as regular exercise, grooming, and playtime are for each pet. Depending on the type of pet, it may also involve providing medical care and regular check-ups.

I have known Hattie for many years and being a caregiver is in her nature. I see it in the way she cares for her children, other family members, and friends, and also in how she cares for her animals (which of course, ARE her family, too!). Just the other day, we were outside and spotted a small toad in the grass. Hattie very gingerly picked it up and moved it to a safe spot. That is just one small example of how big of an animal lover she is. Hattie is very responsible and trustworthy. I would trust her to watch my pets any day, any time, as should you!

Bekka was such a great help for our dog. She asked a lot of good questions and came over to meet him beforehand, which helped so much in trusting her and knowing our dog was in good hands. She always kept us up to date and gave great photos throughout the week. Would definitely recommend to anyone and would love to have her help again in the future :)
