About: I adore animals of all kinds and specialize in patient, empathetic pet care. All animals have unique personalities and I love getting to know them individually! I currently work from home and have availability during the week to drop in and check on your pets! If you have any questions about my schedule please let me know, I am happy to discuss with you. Every animal has their preferences, and you do too! I’m happy to accommodate any needs they have when taking your dog on a walk or checking in on your cat.
“I have booked with Sara twice now- for check-in and walking my Great Dane. She has been wonderful and took excellent care of Roady. She’s very responsive and sends updates, which really put me at ease. I had not used pet services for my dog before this and would 100% recommended Sara!”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog for many years. I have a service dog and she is trained well. I dog sit and walk dogs sometimes but not often. I can bathe and groom. I’m currently volunteering at the local animal shelter to learn more. I’m currently working 3 nights a week, every other weekend. I am available most days, afternoons and some evenings. I’d be more than happy to work with your schedule. My cats are not friendly. I also have a service dog so it’s best to care for your pets in their own homes. I am able to cat sit in my home in a secluded area if needed.
About: When it comes to watching over animals or pet sitting, I have learned, over the years, very good techniques to have the most productive time with them. When walking dogs, for example, I create an atmosphere where the dog could have perfectly calm fun and go to the potty if need be without any issues or distractions, I also never show any frustration towards them and I always surround them with positive energy. I try not to force my control over dogs and I have unique ways of creating strong bonds by showing love in a very subtle way. At a very young age, I knew I have had a talent for interacting with animals and I have always showed a great deal of affection to them, hence my vegetarian diet. Since I was 15 old, I have been watching relatives, neighbors and friends’ dogs, cats and other types of pets. I have mainly handled dogs and cats of all sizes and I do not find any pets to be challenging, after a few encounters, I can get a pet to start getting used to me. I enjoy hanging out and playing with animals in the park and I find pet sitting to be satisfying on both ends.
About: I grew up with dogs, cats and horses. Taking care of animals of all types & sizes is natural and fun for me - we have fun over here ! I work at PS Coffee, my schedule is usually pretty flexible! I currently live in Weymouth love to go on walks and visit the beach! I’m very attentive and have fun taking care of animals, whatever their specific needs may be! Love to get fresh air and create /stick to routine! I’m great at staying in communication with owners and promptly addressing questions, concerns, and joys alike. Each day is full of opportunity to exercise & explore. My priority is always to provide quality care that exceeds expectations!
About: I have a deep love for animals, which I share with my teen daughter. We have been pet sitting for a while through friends and family, and we thoroughly enjoy interacting with pets and teaching them new tricks. If you are interested in my pet sitting services, please ensure that your plans are finalized and that communication remains clear. I prefer not to commit to a request only to have it changed later, so please confirm your need for my services before reaching out. I am available for pet boarding Monday through Friday, with weekends negotiable based on my schedule. I can also be flexible with the timing. I am experienced in safely crating pets and have a yard where they can play, along with local pet parks and trails. The neighborhood is very pet-friendly, and my neighbor also supports our love for animals. As a stay-at-home mom, I have ample time to devote to your pets. My routine includes feeding them, followed by walks and trips to local parks for exercise and play. my home is a very safe environment for your pets. If your pets cant be with other animals I would make sure that your request is granted and if there is any concerns or questions please ask

“Samantha has been amazing. From our initial meet and greet to multiple visits with my kitten, she has been thoroughly communicative, polite, and professional. She has great attention to detail and went above and beyond in providing updates. She even put the cat food away neater than I had left it for her. As a first time pet parent, I felt very comforted that my cat was in kind and safe hands. Beyond feeding, I mainly wanted a companion for my kitten as she is young, and Samantha played with all her favorite toys with her. I’d trust her with anyone’s pet, and I can’t wait to use her services again. Thank you Samantha!”


About: I have been pet setting for friends and family for the past fifteen years. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each and every fur baby I come in contact with. I do not have pets of our own, so we really take this time to provide all the love and attention to your pet while we have them Spending time with me . I have grown up with dogs and cats, my entire life, and once we moved to Charlotte, have helped our neighbors tremendously while they vacation our daily walks around our community.

I can’t wait to meet your loving pet, and give it the same love and attention it deserves. I work from home, so have unlimited time to give your pet attention and take for as many walks as needed. Typically I take two walks a day, but frequently take more when pet sitting there is an enclosed porch area that are smaller dogs that we watch like to hang out on to get sun and fresh air since our yard is not fully enclosed. On weekends that we are pet sitting, we make it a point to stay local and to include your pet in any of the activities that we do around the house. We have a large yard and an enclosed porch area that we can spend time with your dog on. Within walking distance from our house, there’s a small dog park as well.

Keep your pet entertained if that is what they prefer. For the dogs that I have sat, and are not as active, I make sure that they have the space that they need and attentive enough to understand when there needs change.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Braintree
Elena bailed us out many times helping out with Charlee and Rudy! She provided great care, many pictures and somehow figured out exactly what they wanted to spend their time with her, looking for chipmunks and playing ball. Elena was always on time and we never had to worry about making sure the pups had fun. 👍🏾

Molly was fabulous. She took excellent care of our dog and cat for several days. Molly was always on time and she was very communicative. She reached out immediately when the dog was refusing to follow the schedule that I provided. I appreciated her honesty and her patience. I highly recommend Molly.
Grace is super friendly, arrived early, and my dog absolutely loved her. I really appreciated that her calendar accurately reflected her availability, which made booking so easy. It gives me great peace of mind knowing my dog will be in such good hands while I’m away. Can’t wait to have her back!
