“Catherine was awesome - we had 3 pups under her watch and all were looked after great (walked, fed, and played with) and had a fun. They were tired when we got back, so we know they enjoyed it!”
“Our second time having Isis watch our dog while we were on vacation: she is really wonderful. Lots of updates and photos while we were gone, and we returned to a tidy house and happy dog. We highly recommend her!”
“Flex absolutely adored spending time with Deb. All the walks and sniffs and treats he could want and more. Deb took extremely good care of my boy- we will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Leonardo took wonderful care of our cat, Genie, while we were away on our five day honeymoon. He came by daily to feed her, clean her litter box, and spend time with her. We especially appreciated that he brushed her when he noticed her fur was getting a bit matted and made sure to give her plenty of pets and attention. He was very communicative throughout the entire stay, sending daily updates and pictures that really put us at ease and let us know Genie was in great hands. It made such a difference being able to relax on our trip knowing she was being so well cared for. We would absolutely recommend Leonardo to others and would happily book with him again in the future!”
“Danielle was great! She shared great updates and pics of kuzco while we were traveling and it was clear how much she cared about him being comfortable and having a good time with her!”
“Janiya watched our 2 dogs while we were away, completing feedings, walks, and overnight care. She reached out when she had questions and left a nice paper report card after finishing the stay.”
“Gabriella was great with our two dogs Suki and Loki. She shared pictures and kept us updated while we were out. Plus she was very calm and kind. Suki and Loki loved her and we felts safe leaving her with our pups.”
“Pamela was wonderful! She was professional and provided lots of updates and photos! I truly felt so comfortable with her being with my pup! She even got my shy dude to warm up to her! I cannot recommend Pamela enough!”
“Angie is the best ever!! Not only is she amazing with my puppy, but she also takes the best care of my space and I come home to a well taken care of pup and a spotless apartment! She also constantly keeps me updated throughout her stay which is amazing :)”
“Alyssa house/pet sat for us during February break. She took great care of our two huge dogs and we were so grateful to have her keep an eye on the house for us while we traveled to California. Thanks for the peace of mind while we were on vacation! We will definitely be calling again.”
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and helping take care of pets for friends and family when needed. I’m patient, responsible, and comfortable around dogs of different sizes and personalities. I enjoy going on walks, being active, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I’m also very dependable with schedules, communication, and following instructions carefully. I have a part time job so I would love to be able to do dog walkings in the early mornings! I would love to take them on long trails and some dog parks as well!! I’ve always loved animals and enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m responsible, patient, and good at following routines and instructions to make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m active and enjoy going on walks, playing with pets, and giving them lots of attention. Friends and family have trusted me to help with feeding, walks, and keeping their pets company when needed. I’m dependable, organized, and will always treat your pets with care and attention.
“Karissa took wonderful care of my cats, She provided frequent updates, pics, videos and my cats fell in love with her! She is very attentive to details, very responsible and responsive. Super happy with her care.”
“Abhay was absolutely amazing. On first contact, his enthusiasm to meet and greet both us an our animals was encouraging. We knew from first meet that we could be confident and comfortable leaving our babies and our home in his care for two weeks. We were not wrong. Everything went as planned and our babies and our home were cared for perfectly according to our requests. We would, without question, request his services again and highly recommend to others.”
“Zahara was great! She sent wonderful pictures and transported our dog back and forth to dog camp each day. She took our dog on a walk as well. We will definitely use her again!”
“Catherine (Katie) was incredibly responsive to our communications with her, arrived in a timely fashion, and was very attentive to our Belle. We very much look forward to having her care for Belle again.”
About: I’ve had legitimate, paid experience caring for both cats and dogs since working in Boston for about 5 years. I have experience with obedience training and administering medications to pets. I also am reiki certified and have found this helpful when sitting anxious pets. I am an esthetician working in the city 4 days a week and have time available to help care for your pets. Trying to do more of what I love outside of my profession :) Unfortunately I’m not able to bring your pet to my home, but I am available to give them all the love, care and attention they need when you’re not able to.

I will make sure and be on top of keeping them safe, fed, hydrated, and protected. Anything that poses a risk to help them escape will be closed off.

Ashlee is the best! I was so happy when I saw she was available such last minute since she has raving reviews, and now I know why! She was so sweet and patient with Chanel, even when Chanel was anxious and scared and a little nippy. She sent constant updates with pictures which was so reassuring especially since it was our first time leaving her. She was super responsive, attentive and communicative. She house sat and left the place cleaner than it was before we left it. I will definitely be rebooking her!
Christine was amazing with our two dogs! They absolutely loved her. She walked them twice a day, gave them tons of love and attention and play, and was so communicative with us - sending us incredible pictures too! She even washed our sheets and towels she used, which was an added bonus we didn’t expect! Thank you so much Christine! We will be using you again!!
Alyssa was fantastic! We hired her to house sit and watch our girls for a week while we were away. We met with her beforehand to introduce her to our dog, Min and discuss that week away. Our dog loved her right away, and we felt confident about trusting our babies (we also have a cat who is not as social). While away, we got daily updates about both girls with photos, and Alyssa was very responsive with all of our interactions. When we got back we saw she left us a sweet thank you note for trusting her with the girls, and how much she loved spending time with them. We could not recommend Alyssa enough, and we will absolutely book with her again in the future!
Karissa was amazing with our 3 pups. We were gone for a week and she stayed at our house. Karissa walked them 3X day, played with them and loved them so that we could have a worry free vacation. Karissa sent daily pics and reports our their activities. We also had some snow and she responsibly shoveled our porch and stairs to help dogs and us on our return. Our house was clean and well taken care of while we were gone. We highly recommend Karissa!!
Weixiu provided drop in service for our 2 pups while we were away on a short vacation. One of our dogs is shy and she quickly warmed up to Weixiu's kind, caring energy. Our dogs were walked, fed and cared for with lots of pictures and video updates via the app. When we returned home, our dogs were in a great mood (as opposed to shell shocked like when returning from a kennel). Our dogs look forward to seeing Weixiu again sometime in the future.
I cannot recommend Des highly enough. She took exceptional care of my sick Stella and went above and beyond at every step. When I was in a pinch, she even made food for her, which meant the world to me and made such a difference in my dog’s comfort and recovery. She was incredibly communicative, keeping me updated and easing my worries the entire time. Her professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail gave me complete peace of mind. It’s rare to find someone you trust fully with your pet, especially when they’re not feeling well, and she exceeded every expectation.
Elliott housesat and took care of my elderly cat. She has been ill lately and was not eating well. He took great care of her, gave her lots of attention and came up with different ways to entice her to eat. He sent me regular updates and photos. I highly recommend Elliott!
