1. Julianne E.

“Julianne took care of my young and energetic, but shy husky-shepherd mix. I was nervous leaving Gia for the first time but she warmed up very quickly and ended up having a blast with Julianne over the weekend. Julianne kept in touch throughout her stay and sent me several pictures. I wasn’t worried for a second knowing she was happy, comfortable and well taken care of. When I returned, the house was exactly as I’d left it. I am already booking a second sitting with Julianne for my upcoming vacation in April! Thank you!!”


2. Tiffany T.

“Tiffany is an absolute gem! She took amazing care of my pack and was incredibly conscientious and considerate during her stay. My pups greeted me and then went on about their business when I got home from my trip—a sign of a good time and no stress! I truly cannot say enough about Tiffany. She has an intuitive sense for animals and was responsive to each of my pups’ individual needs (I have a chaotic-good seventy-pound pup who craves play and attention, a deaf fifteen year-old who can disappear if you turn your head for too long, and a pittie with arthritis who has a bit of trouble ambulating) and they were all immediately drawn to her. I cannot recommend Tiffany enough.”

“Chinas amazing! She was so helpful and accommodating when we were in a pinch and took wonderful care of our girl, I can’t recommend her enough!!”


4. Kevin B.
“Kevin has worked as a pet sitter for a local company in Massachusetts for 3 years. He cares for dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles, and small farm animals. He is able to give medications, and easily manages even difficult pets. He has had pets his entire life and loves caring for and playing with them. In addition Kevin raised a puppy for Guiding eyes for the blind. He was responsible for all care including training, socializing, and medical needs for the puppy from 3months old until he went back to Guiding Eyes for official guide dog training at a year and a half old. Kevin is conscientious, dependable, responsible and treats every animal with kindness and love. Highly recommend him!”

7. Nicholas J.

“Nicholas was the best!!! He checked in couple times a day with photos over a very long and hot weekend. It was obvious from the pictures that our dog was very happy. We felt that she and home were in great hands. Thanks again Nicholas!”


8. Grace S.
“Grace has always loved animals, especially our 2 dogs. She is kind, caring and very attentive to their needs. For the last 2 years she has worked at the doggie day care that we bring our dogs to. She has been promoted several times and has worked all aspects of the job from the play rooms to front end supervisor. She is dependable and able to handle all needs that your pet may have while giving them lots of love!”


9. Tessa D.
“Tessa watched our sometimes nervous dog and our cat while we were away and sent us updates and photos throughout the weekend. From the pictures we could tell our dog was completely as ease and enjoying their time together which made us feel so relaxed. Tessa did a great job, we would highly recommend her!”


10. Alexandra G.

“Alexandra was fabulous! I don't think my dog knew the difference between her and me! I felt very comfortable with her in my house and with my sweet pup. She sent lots of pictures and texts. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”


11. Michaela W.
About: I have always had pets, but at this point in time, we are unable to have any pets of our own. Because of that, we would love to take care of yours when needed! I have experience with cats, dogs, and turtles - both in my own home and at others' homes. I have a young son (2.5 year old) who adores pets of all shapes and sizes, as well as a baby girl (10 months). I have a part time job, but I am home pretty much 24/7. I am able to accommodate your pet's needs when it comes to outside time (walks, playing, etc.), feeding schedule, and quality time. Pets in our home are a part of our family - they will be the center of our attention! We do not have a fenced in yard, so they would need to be leashed for bathroom breaks. There are several nearby parks we would love to take them to stretch their legs.


12. Lucas S.

“I cannot thank Lucas enough. Far exceeded my expectations, we will 100% be a repeat customer. Two-week trip, our anxious dog loved Lucas and clearly felt safe amd cared for. Detailed updates, even cleaned up the house (and the sheets on the bed he used) before we returned! Highest recommendation”


13. Victoria K.

“Victoria took great care of my pup!”


14. Kathryn S.
“Kat Is a wonderful pet caregiver, sticks to training regiments, provides loving care, and is very patient. I would recommend her time and time again.”


15. Shannon M.


“Shannon was fantastic; she was patient and understanding of our pups who are both rescues with struggles of accepting strangers. They seemed to warm up to Shannon nicely, even took treats from her on the initial meeting (big deal for them!). We would definitely book Shannon again for future sittings.”


16. Sydney S.

“Sydney was so great to my babies while I was gone! She kept the house clean and I came home to everyone healthy and happy. Would absolutely recommend!”


17. Olivia V.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received! The Olivia lives in a quiet neighborhood, taking my dogs on calm and structured walks, and even took them to the lovely trails nearby. Olivia offered to take them to the dog park too. She was amazing with my two big dogs and especially thoughtful with my senior dog. She paid close attention to all my requests and made sure to send me daily updates with photos, which really put my mind at ease. I highly recommend her and trust her completely with my dogs!”


18. Kaitlyn O.
“Kaitlyn is amazing with animals, she lights up when she sees them walking down the street. I would highly recommend her to walk anyones pet. She is strong and therefore there is no need to worry about the pet running away. All pets would be in great hands if left under her watch.”


19. Mike D.

“I truly couldn’t recommend Mike more! He treated my huskies like his own and we felt at ease knowing they were in the best hands.”
