“Jen was amazing. Bella seems to have had a great time on her week long stay. Jen sent pictures and kept us updated throughout the stay and was accommodating when we couldn’t pick up when initially planned due to unforeseen circumstances. I’ll definitely be booking with Jen and her family in the future”

About: With over 15 years of experience as a retired, rewards-based dog trainer, I bring exceptional pet care expertise to the table. I have my own dog, so I understand the deep bond and special care pets require. My fenced yard provides a safe, spacious area for your pets to play and exercise. My background in training means I am skilled in managing puppies and providing attentive senior care, ensuring your pet's happiness and well-being while you're away. My dedication and personal touch set me apart from other sitters, offering a reliable and loving environment for your furry family members. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I work from home most days, allowing me to provide consistent and attentive care. I take frequent breaks during the day to take pets out for playtime or leashed walks, often at the nearby state park. These walks typically last about an hour, depending on the weather. I ensure all walks are on-leash for safety. This routine allows me to balance my work and pet care effectively, ensuring your pet gets the attention and exercise they need. I have a very friendly Australian Labradoodle and three sons, ages 16, 15, and 11, who love having new dogs to play with. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they feel welcomed and comfortable in a family-friendly environment. My children enjoy playing and interacting with the pets, providing them with plenty of attention and stimulation.

About: My husband Lonnie, and I will be the care team for your dog, whether they are staying for a few hours or a few days. We are a pup-loving family looking into fostering or adopting a dog in the long-term. We've had pet hamsters, a hedgehog and bunny but our kids (10, 12 and 15) have wanted a dog for years. In our last neighborhood we signed up as puppysitters and hosted a few different dogs, started walking others, and generally tried to give our kids as much experience with them as possible to test the waters! Now that we live in a big house with a large fenced yard and quiet neighborhood, we would love to welcome your pup into our home for a day, a weekend or a longer stay full of love, hugs, play and walkies. We are still fairly new to the dog-sitting game but we are eager to hear from you and learn how to care for your dog the way you do at home. I work two days a week as a supply teacher, and my husband works remotely from home, so most days there will be 2 adults around to play with your pup! We have three kids between the ages of 10-15; two boys and a girl. They are all eager to spend time with your dog, and help us out with walks, potty breaks, playtime and quiet cuddles. We have a large, fenced yard and plenty of room in the house for your dog's crate and favourite nap mats. If your dog is used to being allowed on furniture or beds, we will allow it in our home too. There will always be somebody home to walk your dog in the mornings, during the day, after school or in the evening. On weekends we will clear our schedules so that we are all available as a family, and during the week there will be 1-2 parents home until school finishes, and then 3 kids home to play after that!

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was little, my own pets and my family/ friends pets as well. I love dogs and I consider myself as a good, responsible and caring dog sitter. I have pet care as part of my regular routine. I make sure any of the pets I stay with are fed on time, have fresh water, get enough exercise, and receive attention throughout the day. I also keep up with grooming, cleaning, and any appointments they may need. I’m also available for boarding Monday - Friday anytime I take care of pets by making sure they are fed, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention and exercise. I follow their owner’s instructions and routine, including walks, playtime, medication if needed, and keeping their space clean. I also make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

Tons of update pictures he sent throughout the days. No issues with the stay whatsoever. I trust Alex caring for my senior dog. I will definitely use Alex next time when I’m out of town. No doubt!”

About: Lifelong animal lover and wildlife rescuer, here for you and your pets About: I've cared for animals my whole life: dogs, cats, birds, lizards, and fish. I'm the person friends, family, and neighbors call when they need someone they trust with their pets, for walks, feeding, playtime, or just good company. I'm also the one who stops for hurt wildlife and brings them to the Tufts wildlife rehab clinic, so I stay calm in unexpected situations and I'm comfortable with animals of every temperament. I have a flexible daytime schedule, which means I'm available for weekday walks, drop-in visits, and day care. Your pet gets real attention plus plenty of updates and photos while you're away. I treat every animal like my own. I have a large yard where dogs get plenty of supervised outdoor time, plus a dog park just a 3-minute walk away for extra play and socializing. Dogs are never left unattended outside, and I keep a close eye on every pup in my care.

They walked him twice a day and were so thoughtful about his comfort, even setting up cushions so he could move around easily at night. They also sent us lots of photos, which we really appreciated :) It made us feel even more at ease knowing he was doing well. I’m sure he had a really happy week with them!

“Megan was great! We came from out of town for an extended stay, and wanted to take a one day excursion without our dog Bentley. Even knowing it was likely to be a one-time dog-sitting opportunity - or at least very occasional - Megan was very responsive, arranged a meeting with her dog in advance, and when the day came, the two dogs and Megan all got along great! Bentley seemed happy to see us but reluctant to leave when we picked him up! And we got a lot of feedback and pictures during both days of his one-night stay. If the opportunity comes up again, we'll definitely turn to Megan again, too!”

Cathy was great for Comet! She sent lots of pictures and got him to eat when he normally doesn’t. She has a great space for watching dogs, and we were glad that there were other dogs there with Comet, although that may not always be the case. We’d use Cathy again!
