House Sitting in Acton

“We had used Faith once before for an overnight. This time we were lucky enough to get her for an entire week while we were on vacation. We were over the moon knowing we didn’t have to worry about our babies. Faith always goes above and beyond sending pictures and videos and updates, giving our 3 rascals all the love, playing with them, and general daily care. She is worth her weight in gold! :)”

“As usual, Dawn was fantastic with our JoJo. He was still mourning the loss of his "sister" Kali and our vacation only weeks after her passing could have been devastating. But the pictures and videos showed just how much he loves Dawn's company and how caring she is.”

“I booked a house sitting stay with Ashley. Throughout the stay, Ashley sent regular updates and adorable photos that showed Cassie was not only safe, but genuinely happy and relaxed. It was such a relief to see Cassie snuggled up, playing, and truly being cared for while I was away. When I returned home, everything was spotless and just as I left it—and Cassie was her usual happy playful self. I will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Kelsey was so great with Zuzu and very considerate of her needs and desire for cuddles haha. I would definitely recommend her for your baby for check ins or as a sitter!”

About: I've had animals my whole life. I have house sat my friends and family's pets for years while they go on vacation. In my spare time I work with the animals at the Animal Refuge League both dogs and cats. They have provided different types of training for both cat and canine care. I work from home so I am able to house sit and still continue working. This allows me to be with youe pets as often as possible during your time away. I do not care for pets in my home since I have a cat and a dog myself. (They get watched by my roommate while I'm away)

“It's such a relief to find quality, reliable pet care for my sweet, aging golden-doodle. Ashley spent 5 days taking care of my dog and my home. She sent photos & videos, communicated with daily updates and was attuned to his physical limitations. It's clear that Ashley loves animals and she bonds easily with them. The added bonus was how well she took care of my home! It was spotless when I returned, sheets, neatly folded, and everything in its place. Highly recommend!”

“Kaden is very responsive and has taken good care of our two dogs and house twice. We feel very at ease when he is with our pets communicated well with us and left our house in excellent shape.”

About: I recently had to say goodbye to my 8 year old black lab due to cancer. I am looking to spend some time helping others with their pet care. As a pet owner I understand how stressful time away can be due to missing your animal. Let me make your work day, work trip or vacation a little easier. I work full-time from home so I have flexibility to pet sit in your home, be available for walks or potty breaks, etc. During my free weekends I am available to stay with your pet. I am able to care for your pets in your home to make them feel safe and comfortable. This helps to avoid transportation or any settling in period.

“We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care Trie provided for our 13-year-old Maltipoo. He has a tough time with separation anxiety and often struggles with eating when we're away, but Trie was absolutely incredible with him. She stayed by his side, took him on several walks a day, and knew exactly how to encourage him to eat. Trie sent us frequent updates and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. For the first time, we were able to truly relax on vacation knowing our fur baby was in such loving hands. She is incredibly sweet, gentle, kind, and attentive — exactly the kind of person you’d hope to find to care for your pet. We’ll definitely be booking with her again for any future travel!”

About: My name is Brooklyn F. I grew up on a farm so i do have experience with livestock as well and I started pet sitting when I was about 13 years old so I’ve experienced pet sitting for a good amount of time. I always bring extra toys and snacks for you pets when I’m dog sitting. I love all types of dogs and cats I am great with any age or size dog. If you have any little critters that would need to be taken care of also I’m great with those as well. I am am very hard working and enjoy everything I do and I would love to come and take care of any of your pets. While dog sitting I will always make sure that your pet has everything that they need! So I am currently employed full time by Rover so I am always available mon-sun from 8am to 6pm. If you’re pup needs extra love and attention I am always able to alter my schedule as well! I live on a farm with multiple fenced in areas and a 2 acre pasture to let your pups run and burn any energy if they would like. I do have multiple fur babys that im currently fostering that are able to keep your pup company but all of my animals are crate trained and are easily able to be seperated if need be! Pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm. It’s not just a job, it’s part of who I am. Every day includes scheduled walks, feeding routines, playtime, and plenty of affection. Whether it’s early morning strolls, midday checkins, or evening cuddles, I build my routine around each pet’s needs to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved I treat every pet like family, whether they’re in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs. In my home, I create a safe, calm, and pet friendly environment tailored to their routine plenty of playtime, fresh water, cozy spots to rest, and lots of love. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow their instructions carefully to maintain the pet’s comfort and normal routine. I keep things clean, consistent, and respectful, always paying attention to each animal’s personality and needs. My goal is to make every pet feel secure and cared for, no matter where they are.

“Tara was amazing! One of our boys is super reactive, especially with new people coming into the house, so leaving him is always nerve wracking. Within hours Steve and Tara were best friends ❤️ She kept us updated, sent tons of pics and gave our needy boys all the love and attention they need. Tara eased my mind and allowed me to fully enjoy our vacation knowing they were in great hands. We will be using her again!”

Safety and trust is of the utmost importance to me. When I am away from my pets I look forward to regular updates and pictures to make sure everything is going smoothly and I would provide the same level of care for my clients.

About: Iv had pets my whole life and have pet sat for friends and family many times in the past. I live on the second floor so it might be hard for senior dogs unless they don’t mind being carried, I’m relatively strong so heavier pets won’t be a problem, I can provide puppy pads for puppies and have a large litter box that is sanitized between uses. I am not currently working so I have all the extra time in the world, My children are at school for 8 hours of the day so if your pet(s) prefer no kids the morning/afternoon would be best for you, they’re older and calm kids who love pets so if your pet is ok with kids they’ll get along great. I have an unfenced yard but not many neighbors, I have a fenced in balcony and lots of trails for walking dogs if that’s what they would like to do.

I am a long time pet owner, currently my household includes a senior dog, a senior cat and two younger cats. They’re part of the family just like my children! In my home, it is important that both my resident animals and your pet feel comfortable and have a space, away from everyone else, that feels safe. In a clients home, I’m looking to make sure that your pet is doing well in your absence, is comfortable and well cared for.

About: I have taken care of a variety of pets my entire life, ranging from cats, dogs, rabbits and other small rodents. I have an open spare room which I use for separate housing if needed for case by case bases. I have three cats and a dog of my own that are spoiled beyond measure but the spare room comes in handy for new friends to be separated. I have worked as a waitress for the last 5 years but after suffering a shoulder injury I am currently looking for opportunities to work from home. I am currently only working one day or two out of the week, meaning I have just about complete open availability. I do my best to provide a safe environment for all of the pets I chose to bring into my home. I do have camera set up in each of my hall ways and living room where I can watch what my pets are doing while I am awhile. There are few times, if any, when I am not one on one with the animal during their time staying with me unless they personally prefer space but I try and keep an eye or camera on them at all times. Plenty of appropriate toys and treats will be provided. There is a closed off spare room provided for pets that need to be kept separate, as needed case by case. I have a medium sized yard that is not fenced in. For dog cases where appropriate I will bring pet to dog park that is close by. Mainly will be walked on leash on side streets and around the yard. Your pet will be treated as one of my own. I do want to mention 2 flights of stairs are required to get in to the building so while I’ll do my best to accommodate all animals, ones who struggle with stairs and need frequent yard time need to know.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember dogs, cats even bunnies and guinea pigs, i love animals they are gentle and sweet and easy to talk to. I’m currently a stay at home mom to my little one year old so I am always available days nights or weekends whenever you need. If bringing your animals here I can provide bowls for food and water you can bring your own if you would like. It’s a pretty open concept house, we have locks on cabinets so your little fur balls can’t get in

About: I’ve always cared for a variety of animals since I was young. Family and friends have always entrusted me to care for their fur babies while they are away. I have gone to other people’s homes to take care of their animals, I’ve worked in boarding kennels and animal rescue for the past 10 years. My experience includes caring for all animal needs as far as dogs, cats, and small animals. I am animal CPR certified and first aid trained, I can address after surgery care for your fur baby, and I can administer oral medications or insulin shots for dogs and cats. Thank you for taking the time to consider me as your pet sitter! I am available upon request, we can message about schedule availability. I also offer house sitting (day boarding) in your home for extended periods of time (drop ins are only for 30 minute to 60 minute visits). At this time I will not be doing overnights but definitely plan to in the future! I can also provide pick up and drop off to bring your dog or dogs to daycare, grooming appointments, or where ever you would like them to go! (That will be an add on service of $10 dollars for a transportation fee) Please reach out to me anytime at your convenience to come take care of your babies! In my clients home I follow any routine they may request. If your dog has a certain schedule or your working on training tactics I will follow it!

About: I love being around animals. They can be so therapeutic but also teach you a lot about yourself and the kind of person you are and the kind person you want to be better at. I love how each animal has its own characters and personalities and how they have so much individual personalities. Id love for this to become full time for me. I'm available basically 7 days a week right now. I can tailor my availability to your needs. I don't have a fenced in yard but there are dog parks in the area and plenty of walking trails I'd love to explore with your pet.
