“Ashley has been amazing with my golden retriever crue! i am a travel nurse newer to the boston area and being away for 15 hours I needed someone last minute to take him potty and watch him in between my shifts and she did just the thing! She sent me many updates and was great with communication! I felt confident that she was safe with crue! So happy I have her now for future help!”

“Nicole was amazing! She did such a great job taking care of our three cats when I was out of town for 10 days. Even our very skittish older cat came out to get pets and treats from Nicole which is a testament to how great she was with animals. Nicole fed our cats wet food with a medication mixed in and did an awesome job playing with our cats. I could tell they had a great time from all the photos she shared!”

About: I’m reliable, trustworthy, and ready to give your dog all the love they’ll be needing when you aren’t there! I’ll be sure to keep your furry friend safe, happy, and well taken care of :) I’m currently unemployed so I have a ton of free time! I just need a heads up in advance so that I can make sure I’m available :) I live in an apartment and do not currently have any pets of my own (although I do have a 4 year old Australian shepherd at my parents house). My apartment is very pet friendly and has tons of grassy areas and walking trails nearby!
“Desiree was great! She was friendly, on time, and provided a great update! Courage had a great time and we will hope to see you again! She was very accommodating and much appreciated!”
“Amy is great! She has watched my pet rabbit, Duncan, on two separate occasions now, and is absolutely amazing! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy person to care for your pet and help your time away go smoothly and stress-free!”
“Kalila was super responsive and caring! Would definitely rebook!”
About: Ever since I can remember I've loved dogs. I really enjoy getting to know their personality and quirks, it's very rewarding to gain their trust. I have a flexible schedule, so I’m available weekdays after 2pm and weekends, mornings and afternoons. I’m looking forward to meeting your chosen family :) I have an indoor cat, that enjoys long naps and play time with different toys. I try to keep her stimulated by playing with her daily.
“Lauren’s checked in on Blake before and this time was the same great experience as always! Lauren is always on time, sends me updates, and makes sure Blake is all set and happy by the time she leaves!”
About: I’ve helped take care of animals since I was 10 years old. Growing up in a home with dogs and cats made me really appreciate and love these animals. Outside of my own pets, I have always extended my help to any family members or friends that need any assistance to make sure their animals are cared after. Whether it be puppies/kittens to senior dogs/cats, I’ve had experience with all ages and I’d love to meet yours someday! I am currently working from home for my full time job so I can be flexible with my time. Depending on the week I can be available most mornings, mid days and evenings. My current apartment does not allow animals however I am happy to come to wherever your fur baby lives! I will abide by what you ask when it comes to taking care of your furry friend and treat any home I walk into with respect!
“Phoebe looked after our elderly dog for four days, stopping in for walks and feeding without fail. And when our flight was delayed she reached out to see if another visit would be helpful, and it was a relief to know we didn’t need to worry. Thank you, Phoebe!”

Sarah D.
“Sarah has watched my dog on several different occasions. My naturally anxious doodle named Chandler now gets excited to leave me and head to Sarah’s place. When Chandler was a puppy I expressed to Sarah that I’d been working on correcting a couple of things like pulling while walking and jumping in excitement to greet humans. When I picked Chandler up next, she was noticeably better behaved. Beyond that, Sarah is always keeping me in the loop with photos and updates of them enjoying their time together at parks, patios, and snuggling on the couch. I would recommend her to watch anyone’s dog!”
