“Josh was absolutely brilliant. Extremely professional, responsible and reliable. Great communicator with humans and animals alike (lots of fun photos while we were away). He looked after our two cats for 4 days and we couldn't have been happier. When we returned home our cats were calm, well-fed and happy - food dishes were washed and litter box area was tidy. Josh will be my first choice from now on when we have to leave our cats next time.”

About: I have a 2 year old Bernese mountain dog whom I raised from a puppy! She is the absolute light of my life and I can’t imagine my life without her! We’ve been through a number of dog training classes together and she has successfully become an off-leash pup! I’m familiar with working with pups with special diets or allergies because of my sweet girl and I’m happy to assist you with your pups needs! I currently work full-time, but I’m here to get in some extra dog love and help cover some extra bills that come with living alone! I’m very flexible and would love the chance to give your pup a breath of fresh air! Everyone has preferences- from humans to our animals and I’m here to respect your requests and your pups needs. I do best with instructions from the owner and trust that you know them best! I’m just here to lend a helping hand!

“Juliana took brilliant care of our young puppy Winston, baking him bespoke doggy treats and taking him on regular walks at his comfort level. Your dog will be in safe, tail-wagging hands with Juliana. :)”

“Michele B. is an experienced and loving dog owner, whose care and concern for her own dog make her someone you want caring for your dog. Making certain her pet had proper nutrition, exercise, proper veterinary care, and time for snuggles, her dog always knew he was loved. I would trust her with any pet I had.”

“Sage is a wonderful sitter. She watched my cats for 10 days—every day I received a wonderful story about what she did with them. I can tell they were in good hands.”

About: I have always lived with pets, and I have several years of volunteer experience with different animal shelters. As a teenager, I spent 3 years visiting with cats and walking dogs at a Boston ASPCA, and as a college student, I fostered kittens when the shelter near my house was too full. I have experience raising two (happy, well-behaved) dogs from puppy to adulthood. This includes my current dog (who thinks he's human). We also share my house with my cat (who thinks she is a dog). I work from my home (that I own) and I can be here 24/7 if need be. I walk and sometimes go on long jogs with my own dog 2-3 times each day around my quiet neighborhood, and I never forget to give my cat the attention she deserves as well. When we aren't on an adventure, my dog Poky divides his time between his favorite spot on my couch, hanging out in my fenced-in yard, trying to play with me or my cat, or attached to a long lead in the front yard, quietly watching the world go by. I work from home full time, with flexibility during my work hours to tend to my animals as needed. My dog is extremely friendly with dogs of all ages and he is very respectful of cats and their desire for space. My cat is very friendly toward other dogs and has met several throughout her life, though she will most likely need to be separated (at least initially) from other cats due to her belief that she is the queen of my house. If caring for a cat I would set them up in my large and comfortable office/guest bedroom where I spend about 6-8 hours per day and would be able give any kitty plenty of attention as well as their own water, food, and litter box space separate from my other pets. If caring for another dog, it would be necessary for them to be dog-friendly (or tolerant) so they can share my living space with my own dog. I have two bedrooms and a large living space/kitchen with plenty of room to run around inside and outside. If the dog is not cat-friendly I would be able to separate them from my own cat for the duration of their visit. *Note: my fence will be under repair for the first week in May, 2024.

“Eva is kind and very reliable. She is considerate, respectful, and an unabashed animal lover. She takes such good care of my cats, and I always know they will be well tended to when I'm away. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a petsitter.”

“Brooke has been a wonderful and reliable pet sitter and dog walker for our two dogs. She's always there when she says she will be and we come home to two much happier dogs in the evenings when we work late. She's very organized, and professional, and immediately put me at ease knowing she would take exceptional care of my dogs. Cannot recommend her enough!”

“Meghan is a dog lover. She grew up with a small dog and currently cares for a dog. She loves getting love from and giving love to her pit bull Makai who is a BIG sweetie. She has helped me out before with my own dog and I’ve always trusted her to give him the best care, even when he was a puppy. Meghan is responsible and respectful. I highly recommend her as a dog sitter and walker.”

About: We got our family dog, Lucy, when I was just 3 years old, and I’ve grown up taking care of her. She’s now 16 years old, and in the last couple years I’ve taken on most of the responsibilities: walking and feeding. I check for ticks daily, bathe her monthly, and schedule & take her to all vet + grooming appointments. I also take care of my Aunt’s dog, Kasper, along with their cat, Sammy, when their family goes on vacation! I take pride in knowing that they feel at ease when their pets are in my hands. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I’m available most weekdays, and my schedule is flexible. I currently live in a small apartment, so coming to you and your pets would be preferable. I can simply stop by for check ins to feed and walk your pet. I can also stay with your dog for most of the day, and even pet sit overnight! While you’re away, I’d love to send photo and video updates, so that you can see your baby is happy, healthy, relaxed, and thriving (despite them missing you dearly!)

“Matt and Cassidy were awesome both with our kitties and with the humans! Super flexible and communicative. We loved reading their daily notes and seeing the pictures and videos, too. We felt that our cats were in excellent care while we were gone. Thank you so much, Matt and Cassidy!”

“Cora did an excellent job watching my cat while I was away. She was flexible with the dates and had very prompt communication. I appreciated the daily updates as well.”
