“Wonderful! Communicative, timely, knows what she's doing, friendly, goes above and beyond, and sends excellent photos of your furry friend! Took excellent care of my guy Chauncey, will definitely hire her again in future.”
2. Karen H.
“Karen made drop-in visits to care for my cat while I was on vacation. She came twice a day, early in the morning and again at dinnertime. She provided food, fresh water, changed the litter, and kept the areas clean. She also took away the used cans to recycle & took away the litter. The texts and photos were reassuring. I definitely recommend Karen. She was thorough and reliable.”
3. Amanda V.
“Amanda is amazing! I have very high standards for those that I entrust with my girls’ care and I felt completely confident and comfortable hiring Amanda. She was communicative and extra responsive when I asked her to keep a close eye on one of my girls, she took great pictures, and spent quality time with the pups. I’m so grateful to have found Amanda and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for exceptional care!!”

7. Margaret R.
“As a pet owner who is way too attached to their dogs, I enthusiastically recommend Margie as a conscientious and caring pet sitter. I know that she will care for my dogs as I would. My dogs get individualized attention, frequent leash walks, and lots of love from Margie. Margie forms a bond with every animal she meets. My dogs are excited to see Margie every time they see her. This is such a comfort and relief to me when I travel. I highly recommend Margie as a pet sitter.”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a little girl. I have always had multiple cats at a time. Staying at friends house also helped me learn how to take care of farm animals at a young age as well. I work a fulltime and part time job. My house are flexible on most weekends. During the week preferably before 7 am and after 4 pm. I do not board any pets, but am willing to take care of them at your home. Following steps left by the pet owner and taking notes during our conversation.
9. Tj D.
“TJ has watched my dog, Oscar, when I go out of town and she is absolutely fantastic! She is so great about playing with him and keeping him busy - he can be a nervous dog but she calms him down and when I pick him up he is always reluctant to go home with me! She is also great at staying in communication and texted updates and photos the entire time. She absolutely loves all dogs, and it is her obvious in the way she cares for her own pups as well as others. I highly recommend her as a great pet sitter for your four legged friends!”
10. Kristen F.
“Kristen is the dog whisperer! She is so amazing with them and they all love her. Dogs come running to her for some love, especially my 3 dogs. They know they can always count on her for some serious tummy rubbing and adoration. Furthermore, Kristen is so reliable and flexible with her schedule. I rest assured knowing my dogs are safe and happy in her care”
11. Mary L.
“I highly recommend Mary for dog walking. Mary has a unique ability to connect with dogs, understand their needs, and comfort them. She goes above and beyond! You will be pleased with the results, regardless of your dog’s size or age.”
12. Karen S.
“Karen is absolutely the person I trust with all my pets! She clearly loves all the animals she works with and is so kind and attentive to each of them. She looks after my super energetic lab mix and I always get pictures of them playing at the beach and in her yard :) she's also taken care of my blind border collie who needed regular medication and special attention, and Karen was the perfect caregiver to her!”
13. Tracy C.
“Tracy C. was amazing! He loves her! Tracy came to the house twice a day to care for him. This was the first time I had used Tracy and the first time I had left him overnight in years. Tracy provided pictures each visit - I loved that. Rascal was well cared for and she spent time playing with him. I highly recommend Tracy for your pet-sitting needs.”
14. Melissa C.

16. Jacqui H.
“Jacqui Hawk is a business woman and artist having had a 22 year career in Higher Education with the Massachusetts University System...I would trust this woman with my home...my dogs..my grandchildren. I don't have grandkids yet..but have trusted her with my home and dogs on several trips out of state. Capable is so understated a word for this dynamo of detail oriented, conscientious home and pet sitter and service provider. She took better care of my dogs than anyone ..family or friends that have ever had my 2 shipoos.She is a gem.Use her.”
17. Susan L.
“Susan was absolutely wonderful to work with and, more importantly, our dogs loved her immediately! She was prompt, personable, and spent a good amount of time with our dogs during a daytime drop in. We would love to use Susan again and highly recommend her services.”
18. Andrea L.
About: I grew up always having a dog and other pets in our home. I absolutely love animals! When I was 19 I got my first dog on my own, Kyla she was a yellow lab and the love of my life. I currently have 2 Belgian Malinois- Cali and Bruin. I've worked training with them and another German Shepherd. I've also volunteered with MSPCA in the past. I would love to help in any way needed to keep your four legged friend happy and safe. I am experienced in many different breeds of dogs. Whether it's puppies or elderly dogs I have experience with both and I always care for them as I do my own! Walking, running, playing, feeding, brushing, cleanup or even belly rubs! I love caring for animals! :) I am currently working part-time as a PCA, doing in home private care. Prior, I was full-time for 10 years with a woman who suffered a TBI. I am very flexible with my daily schedule as I can move my work hours around to fit my dog's clients needs. I don't bring dog's I am caring for to my house, as mine get too worked up! I can care for pet's in their home/yard and walk them from there. I also take some dogs to different trails, hikes, and dog parks. All up to the owner's preference! I am happy to do what works best :)
19. Katie W.
“Katie W. is great with dogs, responsive and responsible. Our 2 pups can be standoffish but both opened up to Katie right away. We would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Katie!”
20. Merrick R.
“Merrick has a very caring demeanor and dogs tend to gravitate toward his welcoming disposition. He is detail oriented and meticulous when it comes to tasks at hand. He has cared for our German Shepherd and they took to each other seamlessly. I would highly recommend Merrick and fully trust his ability to provide the same “attention” to anyone’s dog that they would desire and expect from a canine sitter.”
