“Trish is fantastic! Our dogs are a tad difficult to deal with and she did great, they loved her as well which made us leaving them so much easier! Our house was also left perfectly clean when we got home- which we greatly appreciated after a long evening of driving. She is also flexible and willing to go with the flow which was so helpful for us- we would recommend her to anyone who needs care for their animals!”

“What a relief to have such a fantastic cat sitter for our weekend away. Great communication, took great care of our pets, and left everything just as we left it (if not better). We will definitely be reaching out again very soon for more cat sitting - thank you!!”
About: I have a dog and a cat, both are very friendly. I trained my puppy from 8 weeks old, and he is now a very sweet and calm 3 year old little man. I love dogs of all kinds, and many friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets while they are away. I have taken several training courses with my pup and can help teach your dog some basic skills too! I am a graduate student so I have a pretty flexible schedule. Typically I can work from home part of the day, and I rarely work weekends. Pet care is already part of my routine, and typically includes a morning, afternoon, and evening walk, potty breaks as needed, and plenty of playtime. I have a friendly dog who loves to play, but will match your dogs energy. My 11 year old cat prefers to be left alone and will likely not interact much. I am happy to bring my pup for playtime/walks at your house, or leave him at home if your dog prefers solo walks. I live in a two bedroom condo by myself, there are plenty of walking paths around, but no real yard. I don't like to do dog parks, as I have had some issues with aggressive dogs in the area and don't feel safe there, but love to take my dog on little hikes at places like Red Rocks and Shelburne Bay.
About: I am a current medical student in the area who has had dogs around her for her entire life. I have experience with small, medium, and large dogs of all breeds. I am responsible and quick in an emergency. I am also familiar with lots of walking trails in the area! I am a 4th year medical student with a pretty open schedule. Reach out with any inquiries and I will try to accommodate your needs! For pet sitting, I am available to stay at your home to keep your pet company as well as take them outside as often as needed. I am respectful, responsible, and professional in all spaces.
About: I am mostly interested in hosting cats but if you have a well tempered pup I would be willing to discuss if we would be a good match. I have time before I go to work (from 6 am to 8 am) to check on animals and after I get out at 5:00 pm I am available Monday through Friday. Saturday's I am available after 1 pm and Sunday I have open availability. I love cats and want them to feel most comfortable. Give me a list of their likes and dislikes and I will be sure that we will have a splendid time!
“Danielle was an amazing sitter - both of my dogs loved her from the start, and when I got back after five days away it was like they hadn’t minded my being gone at all. Would recommend Danielle’s services to anyone!”
About: I have had my animals my whole life. Also I am a dog groomer and have worked at vet clinics in the past doing pet care and being a vet assistant. I am currently working at a dog daycare. I currently work at a dog daycare during the day Monday-Friday. I only work from 6:30am-12:30pm most days. This is just my part time job to get extra money I plan on going to pet parents houses and taking the best care of their animals as possible. Providing them enrichment, food and water when needed
“James is an awesome dog and house sitter! He took the dogs on great walks and sent us some adorable pictures while we were away. We came home to two happy, calm pups and a clean, orderly house. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! My name is Aly and I’m 18. I love going on walks and playing with cats and dogs. As well as just lounging around. I am currently in school, so weekends and nights would work best until mid May. Over the summer I will be available at all times. My dogs were all crate trained, its always an easy way to keep them calm. I am used to multiple strong dogs pulling on walks
About: I've recently become petless and would like to remedy that situation by spending some time with your dog. Having grown up around dogs, I'm very well experienced in young, middle and older aged dog care having worked at my friend's doggie daycare for 2 years during Hurricane Sandy. I was also a dog walker in Manhattan and Brooklyn during Covid. I moved back to New England after 20+ years in NYC. I walk a lot and I'd enjoy a companion. Or if you just need me to stop by to say hello and give them a little attention, I'm your gal. I work from home so have the flexibility to ensure your pup is well taken care of at all points of the day and night. Your pup will be taken out at least 4x per day, morning, lunch, early evening and late evening with two of those outings being longer walks/plays. I'm communicative, responsive, flexible and easy to work with. Your loved one will feel relaxed and at home. I live in a dog friendly area with close access to multiple parks and walking areas. I will respect your care instructions with the occasional treat here and there.
“Casandra was great with my cat Coco! Coco requires some medications to be given a couple times a day, and she was able to do that. She gave me updates on Coco throughout the week, and photos of Coco every day, and I came back from vacation to a healthy happy Coco!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends and family since college…every day is an adventure, and every pet is treated like the VIP they are. I’m here to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away. Whether you need a daily dog walker, weekend sitter, or someone to drop in and check on your crew, I’m reliable, communicative, and ready to bring the fun (and the belly rubs). M-F: Weekdays I can do mornings / lunch drop ins or late afternoon walks Sat-Sun: Weekends - open for walks & sitting when needed. Let’s meet and unleash the adventure I’ll follow your routine to keep things familiar and stress-free, and I’ll always keep you updated with plenty of photos and notes. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and becoming part of their pack…it’s the best part of the job.
