House Sitting in Brookline

“Jessica is reliable, responsive, considerate, and my dog loves having her come. When she stayed over with him she even put the bedding and towels in the laundry, a very nice considerate step. This was the second time we booked Jessica but not our last, for sure!”

“We’ve been struggling to find a new dog sitter since ours moved away a couple years ago. We’ve found wonderful sitters in Callie and Gemma! They house sat for us for a few nights and sent pup pics multiple times a day to show us how much fun everyone was having. One of our dogs isn’t as welcoming as the other but was gentle and opened right up to Gemma and Callie. Callie and Gemma filled the dog pool for our pups when it was hot out and sprayed them with the hose. Callie took care of our house, our pups, and our garden. She washed all the dishes, sheets, and blankets; she remade beds and even checked in the day after we got home to see how our pups were doing. We’re so grateful we found Callie and Gemma and will be using them for all of our future sitting needs.”

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was a child, and for the past 7 years, I’ve been independently caring for them. From big to small breeds, I’ve handled a variety of dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ve provided drop-ins for bathroom breaks, feeding (including dogs with allergies or specific requirements), and I’m always excited to take dogs for walks and hikes. I’m experienced with both skittish pups and energetic jumpers—jumping doesn’t bother me, and I know how to manage it safely. I’ve also cared for dogs with basic health needs like administering pills or shots. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I truly miss the companionship and bond that comes with spending time with a furry friend. I currently work remotely part-time, which provides me with the flexibility to work from anywhere — including your home! This also allows me to offer convenient drop-in services during my lunch hour, ensuring your pet receives the care and attention they need while you're away. I believe in the importance of meeting both the family and the dogs prior to sitting. This helps establish trust and ensures a smooth transition for both the pet and the family. I understand that it can be stressful for a dog to have a stranger in their home, so I like to take the time beforehand and allow the dog to become familiar with me.

“Spencer was amazing! He took great care of my 17 year old shorkie!”

“We are very happy with the care Connie provided for our three dogs while we were away. We appreciated the meet and greet up front, and it was clear that our dogs approved and would be in good hands. Some updates and pictures were also a plus while we were away. We would definitely ask Connie to come back for our next vacation. Thanks!!”

“This was the first time we have hired a pet sitter - and it was an absolutely positive experience, from the meet and greet throughout the weekend coverage. We have a senior dog and cat that are more comfortable at home. Klarysa provided comments, pictures and videos which gave us a lot of comfort being away for the weekend. Would definitely recommend her for your pet care.”

“Brenna has been the most wonderful, kind, and patient caregiver for animals for most of her life. She has cared for kittens, adult cats, puppies, and adult dogs. She has provided basic training for my dogs and takes care of them whenever I need her to. I highly recommend Brenna for all your pet sitting needs.”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my pets received while I was away over Christmas! Nevaeh went above and beyond to make sure both my dog and cat were well taken care of. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I came home to happy, healthy pets and a clean home, which is always a huge relief. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter. Thank you so much!”

“I've know Andrew for over a decade now, and he has always had a kindness and love for animals. He has always been willing to go the extra mile to ensure any of the pets he's had are happy, healthy, and adored.”

“I never left my dog with anyone except my daughter and only overnight and she’s almost 12. I was anxious to do so and Teri reassured me she’d take good care of her. I got texts throughout my trip with photos. I missed her but was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing she was being taken care. I would recommend Teri (and Molly) and definitely would use them again.”

“Evan was awesome! He’s clearly an animal person, and right away his personality put me at ease. My kitties warmed up to him right away, and I came back to happy campers. He took great care of them, and they definitely got some playtime in, too. I definitely recommend him, your fur babies will have a great time with him!”

“I would highly recommend Melissa to anyone and will absolutely be using her again for future bookings! She took great care of mine and my sister's dogs and was very attentive to their needs! My dog is high anxiety and my sister's dog is an old lady with very particular and sometimes difficult eating habits, but we felt at ease knowing she was taking care of them. She sent photos through the day, as well as a couple of updates each day. She did ask for my preference for how I would like to receive updates, including how often. She was very accommodating!! Lastly, the house was left nice and clean, which was great to come home to after a week away!”

“Kaleigh was wonderful, we met briefly before I needed to have her dog sit. She was friendly and asked what my dogs routine was so she could keep him to it. I was updated with pictures and messages. She left my home in the condition she arrived.”

“Jordan watched our dog Sam. This was my first time actually leaving him behind but Sam had such a great time with Jordan. Jordan was so great at sending pictures and videos. I can't wait for Jordan to come back and watch Sam for us again so trustworthy!!”

“Sam took wonderful care of our 2 dogs that both required medication and extra attention. She kept in close contact with us throughout our time away. We lost power for a stretch and she took this in stride and kept us up to date on the dogs and the house. We will definitely plan to have Sam come look after the dogs again.”

“Amanda was great with both my pets. She was reliable and was very responsive with all my queries. She really bonded well with my pets. I will definitely hire her again for my vacations.”

“Sarah-Jane sat for my parents’ dog and stayed over at their home for multiple nights. Their dog was so comfortable with Sarah-Jane and had so much fun going on walks with her. He is not used to my parents being away and my mother is always nervous to leave him alone. But Sarah-Jane kept him touch throughout the weekend with updates and pictures of how happy and relaxed he was. Her communication kept my mother at ease and allowed her to enjoy a rare holiday weekend away from home. Really appreciative of Sarah-Jane and her care.”

“I was moving and couldn't find anyone to take my beautiful Monroe, who I had as a kitten. I was devastated and called Wren to come get Monroe and he immediately said yes and drove from NH to CT to pick her up. She is well taken care of and loved by the best, Wren. I would trust him to care for any of my pets with the utmost love and adoration. I highly recommend!”

“Amanda was happy to accommodate my very spoiled dog’s routine and showed her the attention I would in my absence. She was very communicative and I never had to worry that Tessa was being taken care of. Will definitely book again!”

“Brye is an absolutely wonderful dog sitter! She looked after my two pups for three days, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment I met her, I could tell she had a genuine love for animals. Brye sent me regular updates—cute photos of my dogs playing, snuggled up, or enjoying their time outdoors —which made me feel connected even while I was away. I highly recommend Brye to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter to care for their pets!”
