“Lili was amazing with my doggos and took such great care of them. One dog is blind and the other has a high prey drive and she was so compassionate and diligent about keeping them safe. Highly recommend her and look forward to booking with her again soon!”
“Brianna was a fantastic sitter who I would absolutely book again! She was consistent about sending pictures of our dog (and every picture was so cute!) and making sure he was walked on schedule. She was flexible when we needed to do a scheduled handoff of keys. She administered his medicine without any hiccups. Overall great experience having her stay in our home!”

“Viktoriia is the best! She took such great care of our puppy and sent us lots of updates throughout the night. You can really tell how much she loves dogs and genuinely enjoys caring for them! We felt so comfortable leaving our little guy with her and will definitely be booking her again!”
“Anna was wonderful! She stayed at my apartment and watched my dog, Marvin, for about a week and provided daily updates with pictures. Marvin looked like he was having a great time, and he was happy and in great spirits when I got back. I would highly recommend Anna to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Thank you again, Anna!”
“Natalia was amazing as always. Took fabulous care of our boy, even with his special needs, and left the house cleaner than we found it. Can’t wait to work with her again! Sly already misses her.”
About: I’ve found my love for taking care of pets since I was 4 years old. From caring for my first pet as a child to being an aunt to my best friends cat in PA school, I am highly trusted to provide high quality care and unconditional love for any pet in my presence. My schedule is flexible! I’m a physician assistant, so my weeks are a mix of clinic and administrative work. Depending on my schedule, I’m able to stop by before work, during lunch, or after work. I’m also happy to do stay-ins when needed! My weekends tend to be especially flexible as well, and I’m always happy to work with your schedule and accommodate your pets’ needs as much as possible :) My current living space is not equipped to offer care at my home, but I will care for any breed/size/age dog in a client’s home. I am adaptable and willing to do any tasks needed to ensure the pet feels loved, happy, and comfortable.
About: I have had dogs my whole life at home I have two small chihuahuas 3 medium sized cow dogs and 2 big outside guardian dogs for my animals I am more them capable of taking care of multiple dogs and different breeds and sizes I have house sat for multiple people with dogs and cats I offer flexible afternoon and weekend availability around my college classes, making me accessible after 12:30 PM on Mondays and Wednesday, and after 3:30 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays . My Fridays through Sundays are wide open, leaving plenty of time for daily check-ins, dog walking, and overnight house-sitting. Unfortunately, I am unable to board pets in my home due to living in a college dorm. However, while staying in a client's home, I ensure pets receive top-quality care—keeping food and water bowls fresh, providing frequent outdoor breaks, taking them on regular walks, and spending plenty of quality time playing with them.
“Anna took wonderful care of our puppy Semmie while we were away. She was clearly attentive and gentle with her. Semmie was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for the whole time. Anna also communicated really well throughout, and she even took the initiative to come by beforehand to meet Semmie and get to know her before the sit started, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s obvious Anna genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. We felt completely at ease knowing Semmie was in such good hands, and we’ll definitely be booking Anna again for future pet sitting!”
About: I've had dogs all my life, and worked as a volunteer. I've learned a lot from my mother, who has groomed and kenneled dogs for many years. I'm working gigs in the Boston area. I live with a pair of cats, and am quite used to having animals with complex needs as an essential part of my day. For house sitting, I am used to moving and sleeping out of a bag with a low footprint. I'm not allergic to any animals, and have a lot of experience with a wide variety ranging from pets to livestock.
“I'm so glad that Majdoline was able to watch my dog and house-sit over the weekend. She was very quick to respond to any messages and gave several updates throughout the day with a ton of pictures, I never had to worry about a thing. She spent lots of time both giving my dog attention and letting her run around and play in the yard. She left everything in the house very neat and clean as well. I would absolutely ask her to pet-sit for me again!”
About: I have had one dog in the past. Her name is Gigi and she is a golden doodle. She is an extremely active dog who keeps me active 24/7. She loves to cuddle and play and is so caring with people and other animals. The most unique characteristic about Gigi is that she has been obedient since the day we got her. Her training was so simple and easy to do. Training her was so easygoing that I learned enough to train my best friends dog Mia. I think having such a sweet puppy like Gigi made it even more fun to care and train for dogs. I trained Gigi and Mia to be able to remain calm in stressful/overstimulating moments, they are both well skilled in recognizing hand and verbal signals. Both are well behaved when hey are not wearing a leash and also very well in controlling impulsive behavior. I currently work full time so I am available in the afternoons. I am off by 5pm. I am available every weekend, all day. I do plan on having a more flexible schedule in the next 2 months. I personally do not have any pets at the moment. I have had 1 pet in the past and have been trusted by a few friends to care after their pets. I always ask the owner the basic information I need regarding their pets and do my best to ensure a fun and safe environment for all animals!
“Brooke took care of my puppy for a few hours at night. Lots of communication on how it was going and sent cute pictures. We came back to him sleeping peacefully. Would definitely have Brooke pet sit again!”
About: I’ve had the pleasure of owning a pug, multiple chihuahuas, and an Italian greyhound. I absolutely adore dogs and cats and I am eager to provide first class service for your pets so that you can take a break and enjoy life! I have a very flexible schedule. I am available for overnight stays as well. I work from home and make my own schedule so I am always there for your pets! I work from home and make my own schedule so I am able to provide 24/7 watch / care for your pets either at your home or in mine (minimal amount of furniture, dog bed, studio - lots of space).
About: I’ve grown up my entire life with animals in my home. My dog, Brio, a husky mix, is wildly energetic outside so I’ve had lots of experience with her. My cat, Pippa, who we got when she was only 6 months old, is truly one of my favorite creatures. I’ve learned how to interact with and understand cats and their quirks. I’ve also done my fair share of dog walking/care as well as cat care. I’ve stayed overnight for week long periods in charge of both cats and dogs as well as keeping the house in order. I feel I bring a very peaceful presence and I hope your animals will quickly feel comfortable with me! I’m currently in school but have flexibility with my schedule. I’m definitely available to house sit, the exact timeframe will just depend on your proximity to my school. I’m able to come by mid-day for a quick visit and have more time after 5pm but I’m willing to try and accommodate any additional needs! I’m not able to take care of your animals in my own home but I am more than happy to house sit for you and follow your animal’s routines. I’m very independent, reliable, and truly love being in the company of animals. I especially adore cats- I’m very much missing my dog and cat back home in Alaska! I plan to keep a record of when I stopped by and what I did as well as keeping you posted with pictures or updates of your pet. Again, I’m very willing to accommodate a lot!

Masiel took wonderful care of my dog, Blithe. Blithe is very shy but Masiel took time to make her feel comfortable and safe. She communicated clearly with me and sent lots of photos. We are very grateful and will definitely hope to book with Masiel again soon!
Ellie did a phenomenal job house sitting for us! She was communicative, caring, and went above and beyond. Highly recommend if you're looking for someone thoughtful and attentive to watch your animals. We had to adjust our plans slightly and reached out somewhat last minute. Ellie was quick to respond, and we were able to set up a meet and greet within an hour or so of back-and-forth. She was timely for the M&G and made us feel completely at ease prior to our departure. While we were away she sent us updates (photos and videos) of our two dogs and cat, which is always appreciated. Lastly, it was a difficult weekend weather-wise, and we heard no complaints from her. If she can handle two dachshunds during a nonstop weekend of rain, she can handle the most stubborn of pets! We'll look to book with Ellie again in the future if possible -- 10/10!
Nancy took wonderful care of my two 80 lb dogs during an overnight stay! She followed all instructions, was respectful of my home, and made sure my pups were comfortable and well cared for. My dogs warmed up to her right away and were cuddling up with her shortly after meeting her! I’ll definitely be booking Nancy again and would highly recommend her to other pet parents.
Viktorija took amazing care of our mini bernedoodle, Ollie! She stayed at our place for a few days as we were traveling, and Ollie was so happy. We appreciated the updates with photos, and Ollie loved all of his walks and attention. We are so grateful we found Viktorija!
Kiara has been so wonderful with our precious fur baby! Storm has lots of emotional needs and needs a lot of activity, and Kiara took care of her wholly! We received pics and updates the entire time. We’re very fortunate to have someone who loved on Storm so much! Thank you!!
Janelle is a very communicative and kind pet sitter! I felt good right away knowing she had a cat at home, but also because of her thorough questions during our meet and greet. When staying for 5 days with our 2 cats, we got normal updates on mealtimes and behavior. We arrived to 2 happy cats and a home as clean as we had left it. Absolutely would recommend Janelle to care for anyone’s pets!!
Skye was amazing. She clearly loved my kitty Raz and took great care of him, was not put off by the fact he had a complicated medication regimen, sent me a ton of pics of him, left the apartment spotless, and was willing to work with me last minute for a prolonged cat sitting period when Raz got sick last minute. Would definitely recommend Skye to anyone.
Chandler was great with my dog when I had to go out of town. It was my first time ever using a sitter and I was nervous but once we met and I saw how my dog reacted to her and how she let him do his thing, I felt way better. She sent pictures of him while I was gone and kept me updated about things which was so helpful. I will definitely be reaching out to her again when I need someone to watch bear again!
Volkan took great care of my girl, Hallie, while I was traveling internationally. He was communicative with me, sent great picture updates, and reached out quickly to flag she wasn’t eating at first to see what workarounds could get her interested in food again. I could tell from the pictures that Hallie very quickly became comfortable with him. He was very accommodating of a recent injury to make sure it didn’t get worse and kept her on her medication schedule. Will definitely be booking again!
Lena is the best! She not only watches our pets but it’s clear she genuinely enjoys being around them. She also goes above and beyond to do little things that she sees to help us out — emptying the dishwasher, running a load of laundry, or taking the trash to the curb. It’s such huge help to know our pets and home are so well cared for while we’re away.
