About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 15 years, and I run my own small pet care business here on Cape Cod, so this is my full time job, not a side gig. I’m fully insured, pet first aid certified, and I’ve cared for everything from big strong breeds to shy rescues to small dogs with big attitudes (yes, little dog syndrome included!). At home I’ve got a high energy Brittany and a gentle Cavalier, so I know both ends of the energy scale. Pets I’m great with: ⚓ Puppies and senior dogs ⚓ Rescues and shy pups ⚓ Large, strong breeds ⚓ Little dogs with big personalities ⚓ Multi dog households ⚓ Medications and special diets Pet care is my full time business, so your pup is my priority, not something I fit in around another job! I cover Falmouth, Bourne, Sandwich, Mashpee, Cotuit, Centerville, Wareham and nearby towns. I especially love weekly clients because I get to become your pet’s favorite visitor. Got a surprise trip or a long day at work coming up? Shoot me a message and I’ll check my calendar! Your pets get to stay home where everything smells like you, which makes the whole experience so much easier on them. I’m fully insured, pet first aid certified, and I’ve spent 15 years with every kind of dog, from big strong pullers to sweet nervous rescues. Doors stay shut until everyone is secure, no one is ever left alone in an unsecured yard, and your house rules are my house rules while I’m there. My own dogs stay home unless you’d like a playdate! In My Care & Environment: 📍 Supervised and Secure: Pets under my care are never left unattended in unsecured areas. I am extremely mindful of door safety, ensuring pups are secure before any entryways are opened. 🐾 Tailored to Their Needs: With a high energy Brittany and a gentle Cavalier of my own, plus years of experience with large breeds, rescues, and small dogs with big personalities, I know how to keep energetic dogs safely stimulated, help nervous rescues settle in and feel secure, and give small or sensitive dogs the patience and structure they need to feel completely protected and relaxed. 📸 Clear Communication: I believe trust is built through transparency. You will receive regular check ins, updates, and photo updates so you always know your baby is safe, happy, and thriving. 📋 Strict Adherence to Routines: Whether your pup has specific dietary restrictions, precise medication schedules, or distinct boundary training rules, I follow your instructions down to a T. My goal is to provide a reliable, peaceful, and incredibly safe environment so you can travel with absolute peace of mind!

“Nikki was awesome with our 2 high energy dogs! We appreciated the chance for a meet and greet, as well as her prompt communication and attention to detail. Thanks Nikki!”
“Emily was awesome! We were lucky that she was available for a dog walk while we were on vacation. She also was open to a meet and greet before which made us feel more at ease. Very communicative and went above and beyond. We would definitely use her again!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life and volunteer weekly at an adoption center, walking various different breeds and ensuring they get the care they need and the necessary exercise. I am currently a student and look forward to taking care of pets and providing them with the care they need. I have had a passion for taking care of animals ever since I was really little and cannot wait to provide pets with my services! I have had a multitude of pet experiences and will watch for signs from your dog to ensure their best care. In my own home pets are like family and your pets will be treated as such.
“Chelsea was great! She communicated with us leading up to the day she was scheduled and sent us pictures of our good boy during their walk! We would highly recommend her!”
About: I’m Casandra. Ever since I was young, I’ve had a passion for working with animals. I’ve had dogs my whole life, and look at them as more than just pets. For the past few years, I have been pet sitting for friends and family and decided to begin doing it professionally. I also help my friend with canine training from time to time. I develop a tight bond with every animal I sit. I have not fostered dogs professionally, but I have taken pups in that don’t have a home. I know how hard it is to be away from your furry friend, so I will be in constant and consistent communication. I’ll send photo, text, and video updates so you know what your dog is up to while you’re away. I will also follow your care instructions to a ‘T’ since no one knows their dog better than you. I think what makes me a great pet sitter is that I always make sure both the dog and owner are comfortable with me before the stay. I have good availability and always answer right away. As a full-time dog sitter, I have a flexible schedule dedicated entirely to pet care. I'm available throughout the week and on weekends, allowing me to provide consistent attention and companionship to your pets. Whether it's boarding, walks, or playtime. When caring for pets in your home, I make sure to follow any specific routines and preferences you have in place to keep them comfortable and secure/ prioritize keeping doors and gates closed to ensure safety, and I'm mindful of any areas where your pet may need supervision. I always aim to create a calm, stress-free environment where your pet can feel at ease.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Woods Hole. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
