House Sitting in Acton

About: Your dog’s perfect match! I’m a certified dog trainer with experience at a board & train facility, so your pup gets expert care while you’re away. I’ve also volunteered with shelters because nothing makes me happier than spending time with dogs. Whether it’s playtime, training, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your furry friend like family. Let me give them the love and attention they deserve! :) Pet care is a joyful part of my weekly routine! I am available for walks, playtime, and snuggles. Need evening visits? I can help with that too—your pet’s comfort is my priority! My hours will vary on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. In your home, I provide structured care—including walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and medication administration—while reinforcing any training routines. With patience and affection, I create a stress-free environment so both you and your furry family member feel at ease.

“Elton had a fantastic time! 🖤 She kept me updated throughout the entire booking and sent pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Elton was well cared for, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. I really appreciated her communication, kindness, and how attentive she was to his needs. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and started walking them when I was 10. Three years ago, I adopted my own cat, and I currently dog-sit my aunt’s dog regularly. I have experience feeding, walking, and providing companionship for pets, and I love spending time with animals to keep them happy and safe. I am available most days and can provide pet care anytime. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am in college part-time but am free after 4 PM. Other than that, I am available anytime and flexible with short notice requests. I care for pets in their own home by following the owner’s routine closely. I feed pets on schedule, walk dogs, clean litter boxes, and provide plenty of attention and playtime. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.

“Annie was fantastic! She sent photos, took them on walks, and gave all meds as needed! Our dogs were only moderately excited to see us when we got back which means they had so much fun with Annie they didn’t even have time to miss us. She’ll be our go to dog sitter from now on!”

“Jarely did an exceptional job taking care of my 2 pups! We met up beforehand so she could meet the pups and show her what the expectations for the pups were. She watched, fed, cared for my furbabies as if they were her own. She provided so many pics and videos. Also she responds very quickly. I will definitely be rebooking with her for whenever I go out of town! Thanks so much Jarely! You were amazing!”

“Monica is awesome, very loving to all 3 of my animals and we were able to relax even though one of our doggies was not well we knew she was taking very good care of him. I would definitely have her come care for them again.”

About: Helping friends when they travel, neighbors too. I'm the one who they call. Animals and kids have always been drawn to me. I'm authentic, down to earth and passionate about animals. I will treat your kids (pets) like they are my kids (pets). With love, patience and kindness. I have cats of my own. I spend all day, every day with them. I have a flexible schedule so can adjust according to the needs of my clients. I cater to the needs of the client and the pet. I do not have a set routine. Each pet and owner are different. I will work with each client individually, based on their requirements and needs

“Appreciate the flexibility! We had a last minute change of plans on the holiday and really needed the help again with our puppies. She’s great with both our reactive and our older dog.”

“Very sweet lady! Did a great job watching the house and our pets! Kept in touch with us while we were out of the state. Sent cute pictures of the dogs and cats! I would ask her to housesit/ pet sit again!”

About: I have always had animals since I was a kid and I have always loved them! I love their unconditional connection with us. I have senior dog care and medication administering experience. I am trying something new in my career path, which will hopefully include your pet. I want to work with animals more and turn it into a career. I can't wait to get my steps in with your pet! I have an open schedule at this time. I'm looking to fill my week with regular walks, visits, and boarding. I have three daughters. My oldest actually works as a pet bather with Petsmart and my two younger daughters love animals as much as I do......I've been told by my oldest that I'm not allowed at the animals shelter anymore. 🤣🤣🤣 I live in a mobile home with a fenced yard. I have four of my own fur babies that are welcoming to new visitors. Depending on weather we may go for walks at the park and visit the dog park or play in the backyard or even the house with toys. But as long as it's not too hot or raining we hit the park and dog park.

“Best pet sitter we have ever booked very patient with my big guy dogs were extremely happy !! Not stressed at all !!! Definitely my go to pet sitter ❤️💕”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to horses, turtles, and birds. Caring for pets has always been second nature to me, and I have over 20 years of hands-on experience. I’ve raised and cared for cats and dogs of all ages, including seniors who need extra patience and attention. I also practice self-taught dog training and am currently working with a dog on service animal behaviors. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. My goal is to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care every time. I’m currently not working, which means I can dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets every day. My schedule is very flexible, so I’m available on weekdays and weekends for walks, playtime, drop-ins, or boarding. This allows me to give pets my full attention and keep them happy, active, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I live in a gated community with access to a dog park, which is perfect for safe play and exercise. I also have one friendly dog who enjoys companionship, but I can easily provide separate space if your pet prefers quiet time. I always follow owner instructions closely and treat every pet as if they were part of my family.

About: Being a pet owner my whole life has allowed me to understand dogs very well! I’ve dealt with bigger breeds like German Shepards and Pitt bulls, smaller breeds have always gotten along well with my demeanor. I have majority of the day to walk or take dogs to a park or allow them to explore the deserts. Let me know your dogs preference of activity. I stick to the rules, let me know what your dogs need or if they have anything that is specific for them that needs to get done!

“Kristine was absolutely incredible with our large dogs. They loved every minute with her and she was so incredibly patient and loving towards them. I will feel so incredibly safe leaving town the next time we get to book her.”

“Sierra was incredible with our dog Buddy 2. He loves her. She played with him and our cats. She is amazing. Our house was also neat and clean. I didn’t have to worry about our dog. She sent us a daily picture of him and the cats. Sierra is an exceptional pet sitter. I would highly recommend her.”

“Arthur was very communicative and professional. Well trusted, thank you!”

About: Taking care of three cats and a dog requires patience, organization, and a lot of care. Each pet has its own routine, so I make sure the cats are fed on schedule, their litter boxes are kept clean, and they have time to play or relax comfortably. At the same time, I give the dog plenty of attention by taking it on walks, keeping up with feeding times, and making sure it gets exercise and companionship. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs so they all feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Managing multiple pets might be a big responsibility, but it’s also rewarding to keep them happy and healthy. I am available taking care of dogs after 2pm. After 2 pm I'm fully available at any time even past midnight for any last minute plans or emergencies. When I used to have my own pet who died due to complications I've learned many dogs have different needs that all need different treatment which with enough care and attention can be treated with my care.

About: I’ve never taken care of a dog, just cats. But I’ve always wanted one so badly since I have consciousness. My parents bought me a self guided book on taking care of dogs (when I didnt even have one because I was obsessed). I’m still actively learning about dog behaviors, etc since I can’t not wait to adopt a dog when I have my own place. I’ve volunteered at a pet shelter to do weekly cleaning of their living spaces. I cleaned litter box, and played with the kittens while providing potential adoptee information about the cats available. I will be very cautious about every opening/exit they can run away from, as well as meeting their needs while providing amble and productivity play.

“We will definitely hire Caitlyn again. She handled 4 senior dogs and 1 energetic five year old dog beautifully. The seniors all require medications, one needs insulin injections, so ya, she handled a lot, reported on how they were, walked them. We couldn’t be more pleased.”

About: I love animals; always have! I used to come home from school and do homework in front of Animal Planet and when it wasn't doing that I was taking care of my neighbor's pets. They had cats, dogs and horses and I looked forward to it every time. My responsibilities included walking, playing, feeding and even reading to them (which I have on good authority was very adorable). I'm very excited to take care of your fur babies for you now! *Ask me about Active & Running services* **Ask me about Pet Portraiture Add-ons** I am currently taking online classes and looking forward to being with animals when I can part time. I am looking forward to meeting new pets and taking care of them in between bouts of homework and studying. I am available for most services! Including drop-in check-ins, letting dogs out to do their business or go on walks or play with your pets. I'm also available to pet-sit and keep them company while they relax in their space. After meeting your pets and learning their specific and unique needs, likes or dislikes, I am available to feed, walk, play most days.
