Elizabeth was amazing! She left detailed feedback along with photos every-time she was with my dogs. She cleaned up any messes that were there and made sure they were truly taken care of. I will definitely use her in the future.

About: I’m familiar with crate training, leash manners, basic obedience, and socialization needs during early development stages. I understand how to assist aging animals with mobility issues, administer medications, and keep them comfortable and calm. I’m trained in basic pet first aid and know how to respond to common emergencies. I’m currently working as a Unit Coordinator and Bartender! I’m currently available weekdays from 7am-2pm I enjoy taking time in the outdoors and decided that it would be beneficial for me and peoples pets! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priority is ensuring their comfort, safety, and well-being. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and routine.

About: Hi! I've had two dogs in my lifetime, and have experience at a dog day care training facility for 2+ years. I have experience in walking and pet sitting for both dogs and cats. I currently work part time in the mornings, but I am available any time in the early afternoons and evenings. If needed in the morning, let me know and we can work something out! My knowledge and constant attention to each individual pet's needs is crucial to proper care. Whether it be play, feeding or simply being there to make them comfortable.

About: I’m a devoted dog lover and stay-at-home pet caregiver with a friendly, nearly 5-year-old beagle who adores canine company. I have lots of time to cater to your dog’s needs—whether that’s plenty of cuddles, neighborhood walks, or longer hikes—and our beagle has a calm, social temperament and has never met a dog he didn’t get along with. He even helps new dogs settle in at daycare thanks to his gentle nature. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and energy levels and tailor walks and activity to each dog’s needs (short, slow strolls or more active outings). Safe, attentive care and lots of affection are guaranteed—happy to discuss routines, feeding, and any special needs your dog has. I’m currently not employed so my days are flexible. Any doggos that come to the house will be joined by our friendly beagle. Walks are completely up to your discretion. I will do whatever is easiest and the most safe for your pets. We have a crate in our house that can be used if needed. We also have a yard that is not fenced in.

About: I believe each dog is a gift, and will come with their own specific needs. I can adapt to fulfill those needs, and do it with extra care and love. I am a homemaker and wife, with my own two furbabies. There’s Zoey, our senior Pug and Dozer, her son, a Bugg. Other than making sure they are taken care of, my availability is wide open and flexible. I am ever vigilant over my dogs and would do the same for yours. We have a nice fenced in back yard, routinely cleared of poop. We actually use fragrance free baby butt wipes after each poop, to eliminate any accidental markings on furniture. If you’d like this service, just ask. Also, I keep their water and food bowls clean and full. And always have plenty of toys(all different kinds-soft, hard, chewy, squeaky, etc) to keep distracted. We also have several nice plush/soft beds for down time. I also have experience potty training multiple pups, and feel confident to offer that service. I am also very familiar with the needs of senior dogs and can adapt to fulfill their needs. My job is to make your pup have their best day!

Whitman, MA, 02382

About: I worked with ARL Boston, where I gained expertise on animal behavior and training, nutrition, and basic veterinary care procedures such as vaccinations, insulin injections, and treating a variety of ailments. I encountered a variety of animal breeds of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from sharky puppies to old grouchy senior dogs who despise going inside after a good stroll. In addition, I majored in animal science in high school and am currently pursuing courses in animal behavior and zoology in college. I am available on weekdays and weekends with a minimum of one day's notice. On same-day notice, I may still be available and accepting requests, so please contact me. However, with shorter notice, it is less likely that I will be available. In the client's house, I’m going to use caution when meeting their animal (I am in their space and need to make a positive first impression). Even if they are known to be pleasant, I will still take my time getting to know them. This allows me to earn an animal's trust while ensuring that I am aware of their behavioral cues and handling preferences. Once mutual trust is established, we’ll have a great time enjoying all of their favorite activities together while staying safe.

About: Hi, I’m Sam! I’ve been caring for dogs for over 6 years and have had 2 of my own prior to college, so I know firsthand how much they mean to the family. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight sitting, I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and plenty of belly rubs. Animals bring me so much joy, and I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. From energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs, I’m here to give them the attention they deserve. I am a recent college grad who will be able to work until July 1. I have a lot of open availability so please feel free to message me for more specific times. In my home they’ll get plenty of love, walks, playtime, and cuddles. I keep their routine as close to normal as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. If I’m caring for your pet at your place, I’ll follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, and snuggles. I’ll keep things clean, give them all the attention they need, and send you updates and pictures so you know they’re happy and cared for.

Juliette is everything we needed - friendly, responsive, on time, caring to our fur baby, and communicative. She also took some of the best pictures of Chessie we've ever seen! It was fun to see the pics every day. We had peace of mind when we were away and are looking forward to having her cat sit again.

About: I specialize in caring for dogs with special needs and flat faced dogs, frenchies, pugs, bulldogs, etc. I own two French bulldogs myself and administer all types of medication. I am semi-retired from a Corporate career and have recently decided to start my own dog walking business. I am currently trying to build up my clientele to hopefully create a doggie daycare in the near future. I will have a fenced in yard by the end of summer 2025, currently in progress. I have a few separate areas where pups can relax and veg out as well as play inside.

Shannon is great! One of our dogs is a little scared of new people sometimes, so she took the time to come meet the pups before our appointment. They were friends in no time. Will definitely be booking again for the future. Thanks again!

We reach out to Adriana first whenever we need intermittent/drop in visits for our sweet 15 year old dog. She's used to us home with her most of the time, and when we need to leave her for longer than she's used to, Adriana gives us great peace of mind by dropping in. She's always terrific with communication and dependability. Thoroughly recommend!
