“Michelle was by FAR the best sitter we’ve ever had. The updates throughout the day made us feel so secure being away and we came home to a very happy pup. 10 stars!!!”

“Sarah was exceptional! She took such good care of our cat Keagan and communicated with us daily, sending pictures of them interacting. She was very responsible and left our home as clean as we left it. She paid attention to details and went above and beyond. We highly recommend Sarah and would hire her again without question.”

“We are so grateful that Jen cared for our dog Rhea during our recent trip. She spent a lot of time during the meet and greet getting to know us and our dog, and even came on a short walk with us to see how Rhea did on her leash. She was adaptable to her unique needs including Rheas health conditions and medications. Thank you so much for your wonderful care!”

“Cailey was super communicative, followed instructions carefully, and asked thoughtful questions when needed. She provided great updates throughout, and my dog seemed genuinely happy in her care. Overall, she was a wonderful sitter, and I would absolutely book her again.”

“Savannah did a great job with my initially-anxious adolescent puppy, who started off barking a lot. Savannah was calm and patient with her, and my puppy warmed up to Savannah.”


“Patricia is truly a wonderful person and a real dog whisperer! My 2-year-old Bagel can be a little nervous around strangers, but she knew exactly how to read him and quickly win him over. Within minutes of meeting her, he was chasing her around and playing fetch! It’s clear she knows how to make dogs feel comfortable, which made leaving him in her care so much easier and gave me peace of mind while I was away. Patricia stayed at my house to look after Bagel, making him comfortable in his own home while I was away, and I did not have any worries in absence because I knew he was in great hands. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust to care for him, and I really appreciate how easy and stress-free she made the whole experience with constant updates. I can’t recommend Patricia enough to anyone looking for someone who genuinely cares about their pets!”


“Without a doubt, the best pet (and house) sitting experience we have ever had. Xinwei D. (who goes by Garrett) took extra special care of our aging dog, Bernie, while also leaving our home in better condition than we left it. He followed directions to a T, kept in constant communication and sent pictures and updated every day. He will be out first choice in sitters every time. Honestly, we couldn't have taken better care of Bernie ourselves, and being gone for a week knowing someone competent and compassionate was back at home taking care of everything gave us unmatched peace of mind. If he's available, book him for your next drop-in or house sit. You won't be disappointed. Thank you, Garrett!”

“Elena was punctual, dependable, an easy communicator, along with being the best, loving animal sitter. My kitty and pup were safe and sound and happy when I returned home. I feel she is super trustworthy too and felt comfortable with her in my home. I would pick her every time.”

About: Over the past many years, I've loved providing care to dogs and cats alike. I have lots of experience with dog walking and cat sitting, and I would love to offer the best care to your loved companion. I am currently in my final year of medical school at Brown University Medical School. My student schedule allows me to be very flexible and I would love to help care for your pet! For my own pet, I love spending quality time with her and making sure she gets fed at the same times each day, gets lots of play time, and knows she is loved. I will always be careful with your home and your companion, and would be happy to answer and more questions or provide more information to help you feel the most safe!
“Marie was an absolute joy and took amazing care of my cat, Arbie, and dog, Tycho. Not only was she willing to sit with fairly short notice but did everything right. 12/10 would recommend! 😊”


“Heather is awesome!!! A family member was supposed to watch our dogs but she was injured just days before our trip. I reached out to Heather at 4pm on a Tuesday and she was at my house for a meet and greet at 8am Wednesday. She was super accommodating from the first moment all the way to the end of the sitting. Throughout our vaca she sent pics and videos but was also totally self sufficient. The dogs had a great time with her. When we got home our dogs were happy to see us but not desperate for attention as they sometimes have been in the past after we’ve been away. You could tell that they were the #1 focus of Heather’s time while we were gone and received tons of play and snuggles. I will absolutely book Heather again and highly recommend her!”

“Julia was the best dog sitter I’ve ever had - frequent photos of fun walks and great updates. She was so friendly and professional and I will definitely be hoping she is available for any and all future bookings!”


About: Ive been taking care of my own pets as long as Ive been able, and began pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking for others in high school during 2022. I have experience with cats and dogs of varying ages (puppies/kittens-elderly pets) and needs (illnesses and disabilities), as well as more exotic pets like lizards, birds, rodents, and aquatic animals like fish, turtles, and axolotls. I’ve administered medications for dogs, but do not have experience with needles. I’ve spent up to a week taking care of several animals at a time, as well as short periods like nights and checking in daily. I will do all I can to provide your pet and home with the care they need! I’m currently in college, but primarily online, so my school schedule is flexible with your needs! I am not working outside of pet care so I am not tied down to other responsibilities and provide the time needed to care for your pets. I’ve lived with pets my whole life, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow their usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable paying attention to a pet’s behavior and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and secure. I’ll also treat your home with respect, double-check doors and gates, and follow any specific instructions you leave. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are being well cared for while you’re away.
“Heath was amazing! I have hired other sitters but no one has been better than him so far! He was always updating us about our pets (two dogs and one cat) and was very present while we were away. One of my dogs gets anxious when left alone for too long and Heath made sure to be at my house as much as he could. I asked him to stay at our house and he was very respectful to our property. I highly recommend his services!”

“Emma was amazing. Finn was very happy when we came home. She sent us many pictures and videos of Finn during the week she was here. We are very pleased and will definitely use her again.”


About: Hi! My names Brianna and I’m your pets new best friend! I am a 25 year old vegan that was raised by a mom that worked in an animal sanctuary out on the West Coast. When we moved here to Rhode Island, my mom continued to be a vet tech and brought her love of animals home while we fostered all kinds! My love for animals alongside learning to care for them is not only in my blood, but began at a very young age. I have 12 pets of my own at home! Cats, reptiles, ferrets, spiders, and a fish tank! I’m also experienced in working with older, nervous, and young animals. I’m so excited to get to know your pet(s). Please feel free to inquire about daily/weekly/bi-weekly visits etc. getting to know your animals on a more personal level will make everything smoother for everyone involved and I’d love to be a long term friend. There’s nothing more rewarding than earning an animals trust. From high energy babies to senior care, I’m excited to build a trusting bond with any animal I meet! My visits will include plenty of love, fresh food and water, some treats if granted permission, potty breaks and walks, litter scooping if required, and whatever type of play time or cuddles they prefer (including just being fed and left alone!) I tailor my visits to their specific pace. I am reliable with strict feeding schedules, and administering medications if needed, including shots, oral pills and oral liquids. My top priority is keeping your pet safe, happy, and stress free in their own environment while giving you total peace of mind with regular photo and text updates! * I’m willing to care for any animals! So let me know if you have reptiles, small mammals etc. Looking for house sitting? I’m also a plant girly! I work from home in social media marketing and create my own schedule, so I am available for same day visits and can work from wherever! I’m basically always on call for those last minute drop ins. I also love being outdoors and set aside time to go for walks myself every day, so taking a dog along with me would make what I already do even better. I have experience with ALL types of animals so there is no request that will be new to me. My own home has reptiles, cats, arachnids, and I’ve fostered dogs before! Have something specific your pet wants? I’m all ears! There’s nothing to big, small, or “weird” for me.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and truly can’t imagine life without pets. I worked at a veterinary clinic in high school, where I gained hands-on experience with basic animal care, handling, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention. For the past 8 years, I’ve consistently pet sat for friends, family, and clients, caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, ages, and needs. I’ve always had pets growing up, so being attentive, patient, and tuned in to animals’ routines comes naturally to me. I treat every pet I care for like my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m a PhD student at Brown University- so I teach and take classes, but my schedule is pretty flexible as I’m only on campus during a class or for office hours. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, and care instructions closely, and I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m attentive to changes in behavior or health and will communicate promptly if anything seems off. I keep the home tidy, refresh food and water bowls, clean up after walks or litter boxes, and ensure your pet’s environment stays safe and calm. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel at ease, knowing your pet is well cared for in their own space.
“Grace did amazing with our two dogs. Grace was able to befriend our people aggressive cattle dog. As well as, manage our high anxiety Airedale with no problems. She has great communication and took excellent care of my babies. We will definitely book with her in the future.”
“Sydney did a fantastic job house sitting, and caring for our dog and cat. She arrived on time and listened well to my detailed pet care instructions. We can definitely trust her in our home and we know that can count on her! Thanks again Sydney!”

The median cost per night for house sitting in Charles is $65

5/5 Stars! Highly Recommend! Xinwei is hands down one of the best pet sitters we have ever used! While we have worked with pet walkers in the past, Xinwei was our very first time trusting someone to stay overnight with our pups, and he completely blew us away. From start to finish, his attention to detail and thoughtful care exceeded all of our expectations. He took the time to truly understand our pups' routines, personalities, and specific needs, making sure every detail, from feeding and exercise to late night comfort, was followed to a T. Knowing our dogs were in such attentive, loving hands for their first overnight stay gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Beyond being wonderful with our pups, Xinwei was exceptionally respectful of our home. We returned to find everything immaculate, honestly, even better than we left it! Xinwei is genuinely kind, reliable, and deeply professional. We look forward to using him again and definitely will, and we highly recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional, trustworthy sitter!

Highly recommend Tatiana! She took such great care of my boy, kept my house clean, and sent lots of photos and updates throughout her stay, which gave me peace of mind. She was responsible, thoughtful, and respectful of my home. I will definitely be reaching out to her again for my next trip.

JL house sit for 7days while I was abroad. He took the utmost care with Angus and my home. JL sent me daily updates, pictures and video. I am so happy our paths crossed. I would highly recommend JL. 5 stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 Thank you, JL, for taking great care of my fella! Until next time.

Cailey was great with my furbaby. She put in a very long day when I had a wedding to go to and stayed the entire time without complaint, playing with her, walking her and feeding her. She continually left me photos and updated me on how she was doing. My furbaby loved her. Thank you Cailey!!

Amanda was great with my anxious pitty mix who is aggressive with other dogs. She was very communicative and scheduled a meet n greet on short notice. She asked lots of questions and made sure she was prepared for the overnight stay at our place. Highly recommend!
