About: From furry to feathered, I've been surrounded by animals my entire life, nurturing a deep understanding and unwavering passion for their well-being. Growing up with cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, fish, and rabbits has instilled in me a lifelong commitment to providing exceptional care for all creatures, great and small. This isn't just a job for me; it's a continuation of a lifelong dedication. What truly sets me apart is my experience with special needs animals. My own beloved dog, Charli, battled a severe form of epilepsy, requiring meticulous management through specialized diets, precise medication administration (oral and nasal), diapering and attentive seizure care, including mobility assistance with a supportive sling. This personal journey has equipped me with invaluable skills and a profound empathy for animals facing health challenges. I also have experience administering oral medication to rabbits, syringe feeding, and even IV hydration. Beyond my personal experience, I actively volunteer at SNARR, a special needs rescue in Brewster, where I walk and socialize dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I'm also currently pursuing my dog training certification, further enhancing my ability to understand and address canine behavior. Animals have always been an integral part of my life, and their well-being is my utmost priority. When you entrust your pet to my care, you can rest assured they will be treated with the same love, attention, and dedication I would give my own. *Meet and greet required before any new booking* Animal care and welfare is my full time job, so I can easily adapt to your pet's unique needs and provide personalized care. I am Pet CPR and First Aid Certified. When pets stay with me, they become part of our family! My home offers a comfortable and safe environment, with a large, fully fenced yard where they can enjoy supervised playtime. Inside, I have cozy beds and ample space for crating if needed. I understand that every pet is unique, so I'll tailor my schedule to perfectly match your pet's exercise, feeding, and medication needs. We're fortunate to live in an area with plenty of beautiful walking and hiking trails, perfect for exploring with energetic pups. My two children, ages 9 and 12, are animal lovers who understand the importance of respecting individual needs and temperaments. They're also fantastic playmates for dogs who enjoy a good romp! Finally, we have a house rabbit who will always be kept separate from any visiting animals, ensuring everyone's safety and comfort.

About: Hi there! My name is Kat, and I have a deep, well-rounded background in animal care. With 3+ years of hands-on experience in animal rescue and 10 years of personal pet sitting (and 22+ years of animal-loving!), I bring calm expertise, safety awareness, and specialized care that goes far beyond standard pet sitting. I'm also a certified Wilderness First Responder and American Red Cross CPR Certified. Rescue Training: My time in animal rescue taught me to read subtle animal body language, prevent stressful situations, and keep pets safe and relaxed in any environment, while also serving as a friend and comfort to animals in need! Medication Administration: I have experience giving oral, topical, and routine medications to a wide variety of animals, ranging from kittens to senior dogs. Experience in All Sizes & Energy Levels: From toy breeds to giant dogs, I understand how to handle different temperaments and physical needs. I love taking high-energy dogs on extensive, engaging walks (especially on our local hiking trails!) to keep them physically exercised and mentally happy. I am a full-time student supporting myself while working toward my paralegal certification. I take my courses online from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. (Monday-Thursday), so I am available for in-home sitting, drop-in visits, or whatever your pet may need! Since I offer only In-House Sitting, Drop-In Visits, and walk services, your pets will receive 1-on-1 attention without leaving the comfort of their familiar surroundings. My priority is maintaining their daily routine while keeping your home secure and your pets safe. With every visit, I will provide consistent photo updates and detailed reports after each drop-in/day! Flexible, personalized pet care (drop-ins & sitting): Regardless of whether it's a quick 30-minute stop-in for food, meds, play, and potty breaks, or an overnight stay, I adapt entirely to your pet’s individual needs and routine. I strive to keep homes tidy, secure, and maintained, reducing travel stress for everyone and helping pets feel their best! Outdoor Safety: During walks and outdoor breaks, safety is paramount- I practice attentive situational awareness and strive to maintain large distances from any off-leash dogs, as well as ensuring your pet is safely and securely harnessed/leashed. Overall Safety Precautions: From my rescue experience, animals are curious!- In this, I ensure all doors, gates, and deadbolts are latched securely during every entry and exit, double-check that food and medications are sealed out of reach, as well as keeping a watchful eye out for subtle changes in pet health or behavior. Home Maintenance/Overall Peace of Mind: During house sits and drop-ins, I am happy to bring in mail, water plants, keep your living spaces spotless, or help with any other tasks.

About: I provide calm, one-on-one care for dogs who do best with consistency, close supervision, and a peaceful home environment. I have hands-on ASPCA volunteer experience and 15 years caring for my own dog, Peggy, and I’m especially comfortable supporting dogs with medical needs, anxiety, or those who require extra patience and structure. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent supervision throughout the day rather than leaving your dog alone for long stretches. I follow routines closely, including meals, medications, potty breaks, and rest, while maintaining a predictable environment that helps your dog settle quickly and feel secure. Safety, structure, and clear communication guide everything I do. I provide a calm, clean, and well-supervised environment where your dog is closely monitored at all times and never left unattended.

“Erica took amazing care of our cat Biscuits while we were away for a week! We loved getting the rover cards with updates and it was so nice to know Biscuits was in wonderful hands while we were gone. I would recommend Erica over and over again, she is great!”

About: Having grown up in a household bustling with three dogs and three cats, I've been immersed in pet care from a very young age! My hands on experience ranges from raising a German Shepherd to managing the boundless energy of a Husky and the loyal companionship of a Lab—each breed presenting its unique challenges. As a college student, I continue this passion with my beloved dog, Dewey, who is a constant companion. My specialties include embracing long walks (hiking is a favorite), potty training, and dedicating quality time to ensure pets are happy and healthy. As a recent college student with a vast amount of flexibility, I find more time to dedicate to my passion for pet care. Though I work part-time nannying , my free moments are often spent on long walks with my dog, Dewey, or those of my friends. These outings range from early morning walks to peaceful nighttime walks, seamlessly integrating into my daily routine. In my home, I create a welcoming environment for pets by ensuring they have a safe, comfortable space for their little vacation! I prioritize routine, from feeding and exercise to play and rest in my acred fenced backyard, adapting to the individual needs of each pet. When caring for pets in a client's home, I maintain their familiar routines to minimize stress. Since each pet is different, I have to adapt to what they are used to at home to make them comfortable. I also keep thorough communication with owners, providing updates and seeking guidance to tailor my approach according to the pet’s habits and preferences. Whether in my home or theirs, I am committed to providing a nurturing and attentive care environment that meets each pets unique personality!

About: I have had dogs and cats of my own and I have also worked in an animal hospital and done some wildlife rescue and of course pet carei I am looking to assist with your pets to make it easier for you and your schedule and vacations or weekend trips or check ins. I currently have a job that I work remotely also. My complex does not allow dogs and that's unfortunate so I was hoping I can assist at your home with whatever details you provide me with.

About: I'm Steven, a former science teacher who turned a lifelong love of animals into full-time pet care. I've cared for my own dogs for years (John, a Yorkie, and Lucy, my senior Chihuahua) and have looked after friends' and neighbors' dogs, cats, and small pets for as long as I can remember. I'm Fear Free Certified and Red Cross Pet First Aid & CPR certified, and I'm fully insured and bonded. Teaching taught me patience, routine, and how to read what someone needs when they can't say it in words, which is exactly what good pet care takes. Every booking is handled personally by me, so you'll always know who's showing up at your door. I do this full-time, so your pet is a priority, not a side gig. For house sitting I keep your pet on their normal routine, same feeding times, walks, and bedtime, and I send photo and text updates throughout so you can relax while you're away. I follow feeding and medication instructions exactly (I give my own senior dog her meds on a strict schedule, so I take it seriously). Every booking starts with a free meet & greet so your pet and I are comfortable before anything is confirmed. Since I come to you, your pet stays in their own home, familiar surroundings, their own bed and yard, which keeps them calmest, especially seniors and anxious pets. I treat your home with respect: doors locked, mail brought in, plants watered if you'd like, everything left as I found it. I have two dogs of my own, John, a Yorkie, and Lucy, a senior Chihuahua, so I'm comfortable with everything from high-energy pups to gentle senior care.
