Pet Boarding in Boston

About: I have had dogs all my life and love taking care of them. I grew up with a large Labrador so I have experience with large dogs but love small ones as well. Happy to accommodate any specific asks. Please let me know of any feedback. My availability is up to date. I have a hybrid work set up so can ensure any dog staying with me can have workday walks and attention. My background: I’m originally from Connecticut, went to the University of Michigan, work in Beacon Hill and am mainly looking to have dogs back in my life after my family dog passed away. Thank you and I look forward to hopefully meeting you soon! I have a hybrid work set-up and when in offices it’s only 5 minutes away from my apartment. This allows me to either WFH when watching your dog and/or coming home during the work day for a midday walk and play! I live in a very quiet apartment in Beacon Hill. I keep a clean apartment and don’t have anything a dog can easily get into. Happy to accommodate a crate if necessary.

About: As a dedicated pet sitter, I go above and beyond to ensure your pets are not only well cared for but feel loved and comfortable in your absence. With experience in training puppies and providing specialized care for senior pets, I understand the unique needs of animals at different life stages. My patience, attention to detail, and ability to handle both energetic pups and senior pets with mobility issues set me apart from other sitters. I am a graduate student with a lot of flexibility. Balancing my other responsibilities with pet sitting, I make time for play, training, and any special care required, allowing me to provide individualized attention to each pet. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, welcoming environment with designated spaces for them to rest, play, and explore. I maintain a clean and pet-friendly home with plenty of toys, cozy bedding, and outdoor access for exercise and bathroom breaks. I also provide regular updates and photos to reassure the owners that their pets are happy and well-cared for while they’re away.

“Zach was fantastic! He came through for us last minute when our other sitter cancelled last minute. He watched our dog Nugget for the weekend, and was flexible, communicative, easy to work with, and very attentive to our needs and directions. We'll definitely use him again.”

About: Animals have always been a part of my family - from dogs and cats to bunnies! I moved to Boston a year ago, and would love to offer the same quality care and comfort that I did back home to families in Boston. I work full-time Monday through Fridays 9:30-5:30 so weekends would be best. I am comfortable offering pet care during the weekdays as long as the family is okay with their pet being left alone for 8 hours. I live in an apartment, but am a 5 minute walk to Boston Common where I can take your dog for long walks and playtime. I have a relatively good sized apartment where the dog can roam freely and is allowed on furniture. I will do my best to make my space as similar and comfortable for the pup as their actual home.

“Victoria took excellent care of my pup when I was away. He loved his new comfy bed - and it was clear he had lots of opportunities for outings and cuddling. I appreciated the frequent photos, which put my mind at ease that our dog was being well cared for!”

“Kathryn was amazing! Extremely easy to communicate with, took the time to get to know and ask about my dog's needs and took great care of her for a weekend. I received daily updates and pictures and could tell she was well cared for. I would definitely both recommend and book with Kathryn again!”

Jess R.

“We feel so fortunate to have found Laura! Our 15 year old labradoodle is a good old man but he needs different care than a younger dog. Laura sent us daily updates and took such great care of our Henry. Would highly recommend Laura as a kind and compassionate caregiver!”

Jennifer W.

“Ivis was fantastic! Ivis and her family gave our dog Pepper so much love and attention while we were away. She sent us updates and photos and dropped Pepper off for us! Will definitely use her services again!”

Lillian R.

“Svetlana was amazing with Kaiser. She took amazing care of him and kept us up to date with all the activities during his stay. We received a lot of pictures and information on how he had spent each day. We really appreciate the love and attention that Svetlana showed towards Kaiser and we are looking forward to booking her again to take care of him!”

“Tae was great with my puppy for doggy daycare! She was very responsive when working through scheduling and accommodating and communicative when watching my puppy. I received multiple check ins and photos throughout the day letting me know how she was doing and she asked questions about certain habits to make sure everything was normal behavior. Her dog Udon was so sweet and chill around my puppy too which was great for socialization. Would absolutely recommend to book with her!”

Ashley H.

“Mocha had a great time with Elliot. We started by having a wonderful meeting where I certainly felt incredibly at ease having Mocha stay with Elliot. During the stay Elliot sent frequent updates and pictures of our girl playing happily. I could tell during the first meeting that Elliot was really good with dogs and Mocha just seemed so comfortable with him. I highly recommend Elliot!”

Nick M.

“Another great stay with Lauren!”

Peter D.

“Ilya is absolutely excellent! He took great care of our dog, was extremely communicative, sent plenty of photos and updates. It was very clear our dog had a great time staying with Ilya. Would highly recommend him for anyone!”

Aileen S.

“I am very glad I found John, as he was such a caring & attentive & calm sitter for slightly anxious dog. He gave routine updates & pictures to keep me informed of how things were going, & I can tell my dog had a very comfortable stay. I will definitely be booking John again!”

Kerry S.

“Leonard had a wonderful time with Peter! You can tell that Peter takes great care of his pups. Leonard was happy as a clam and we received several updates throughout our trip so we never worried about him. We will definitely be booking with Peter again.”

“Jo and Adam were great. They are very responsive. I checked in on Cooper a few days ago, and they responded within five minutes. They also sent pictures daily. I would definitely ask them to watch Cooper again.”
