“Kim was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond from beginning to end for our cats and for us. She was so easy to communicate with and gave quick replies, she allowed for a complementary meet and greet, and she was so kind to the cats. Kim sent us daily updates with detailed and thorough descriptions of how visits went, along with several photographs of our kitty boys! Kim made us feel comfortable and confident that our pets were getting the best possible care. We will definitely be booking Kim again next time we need a sitter!”


“Kylie was great with both of my dogs who need to be kept separated, and I was able to trust her with that while I was out for a few hours. We will definitely be using her services again and my dogs will be very happy to see her again!🐾”


“Haley was awesome! She was very attentive in her care for our cat & dog while we were away. She also was able to accommodate a last minute additional visit which was so great!! She closely monitored the well-being of our dog during 4th of July fireworks and made sure to give thorough reviews/plenty of photos. Communication was amazing! Would definitely recommend Haley”


“Jessica M. continues to keep my 2 kitties Very Happy during her visits. One cat is seriously shedding + Wildly Loves her brushing; the other one enjoys the attention as well!”


“Amanda was awesome! I didn't worry about Gustave the whole time I was gone. She gave him plenty of treats, extra attention and even clipped his nails. I would recommend her care to anyone!”


“Angela & Adam had great professional holiday energy for my senior kitties. They sent thorough reports and great/festive pictures that made us laugh which helped my son cause he always misses our fur babies when we are out of town. It is so refreshing to meet folks who genuinely love animals and provide top notch care!”


About: I have taken care of dogs for about five years. My girl loves hiking and long walks. I love taking pups on long walks to tire them out!! I am currently going to school with a pretty open schedule. Looking for odd jobs to fill in the gaps and make a little bit on the side. I have a friendly fixed female who is crate trained. I also have a fenced in yard but prefer walks around the block with pups.

About: I have been a pet lover since day one! I have had dogs as big as loving labs, as small as cocker spaniels, and rescues in between. Each one had their own personality, character and energy levels but were all loved the same. I do have experience with senior dogs as well who have needed a little extra help to accommodate their day to day needs as they lost their sight, hearing or became less mobile. Every pet deserves love and attention and I look forward to helping meet their needs! I am currently a dental hygiene student with a part time job one night a week. Since my school days are much shorter than the average work day, I have plenty of time to keep your pet company while you are away. I am comfortable walking dogs of any size. Currently I do not do sitting in my own home, but look forward to playing outside if there is a fenced in yard, walks in your neighborhood, and playing with your pups favorite toys.

“Kristie & Dominick are family now having booked them for several trips out of town. Our scaredy-cats may be slow to warm but we love that Kristie does whatever she can to interact with them as well as handle the basics of feeding and litter duty. I can’t tell you the peace of mind it gives me to have a reliable and professional person looking over “my kids” rather than the uncomfortable favor of asking a neighbor. Thank you Kristie and Dominick for being there for us and for your sensitivity to our girls who struggle so much with our absence.”


About: I’ve always had pets growing up so I’m very familiar with their needs and what makes them happy. Currently have a 5 year old Half American Pincher / Chihuahua. Very friendly and full of energy. Great with everyone and all kinds of animals. I currently work from home so I’m always available to around to make sure they are okay. We got for multiple walks a day and also visit the dog park near New Bedford High School regularly. My dog roams the apartment freely while I work. We do not cage our pet. ( no offense to those that do) He is also allowed on the furniture. He has plenty of toys and I also take him to a fenced in park where he runs around for an hour a day. We got for walks in the morning, during my lunch break and plenty of walks after work. We have a fenced in yard but it is rather small so we don’t do much there.

About: My passion is animals I’ve been taking care of animals for years and I’ve been learning about how to care for each species’ specific needs. I’ve volunteered at shelters, I am part time veterinary technician at an animal hospital, and currently in school on track to be a veterinarian. Im currently in school and working part time so I’ll be available all day Monday, Friday, Saturday, and Sundays. I will be available Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday early mornings and evenings only! In your home, i would care for your pets by sticking to their regular routine for feeding, exercise, grooming, and fun! Ensuring their space is safe and comfortable with clean water, appropriate bedding, and pet-proofed areas. I do this by following detailed instructions, respecting your home and pet’s routine, and providing regular updates. For care in my home I have a fenced yard and two pups to keep yours company and would maintain your pets schedule as well.

About: Experienced Dog Owner & Sitter – Reliable, Active, and Caring Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I grew up with a terrier mix and a black lab, and as an adult, I've cared for a German Shorthaired Pointer and now my current companion, Reggie—a 1.5-year-old Basenji. Reggie is friendly, well-socialized, and loves being around other dogs. I’m especially experienced with puppies and enjoy the energy and patience they require. Reggie and I stick to a consistent daily routine that includes at least a mile of leash walking each day—usually split into multiple walks, with outings early in the morning (as early as 5–8 AM), mid-morning, an afternoon potty break, and a longer walk in the evening. Our home is dog-friendly, safe, and has a fenced-in yard perfect for supervised play. We welcome only one guest dog at a time to ensure plenty of individual attention and a calm environment. I house- and dog-sitting in as well as , I currently offer drop-in visits. At the heart of everything I do is a commitment to your dog’s safety, comfort, and well-being. I’m 35, responsible, and passionate about dogs—I treat every pup like family. Flexible & Reliable Pet Care – Full-Time Availability I offer full-time availability for pet care and am happy to accommodate a variety of schedules. Morning walks are part of our daily routine—typically between 5 AM and 8 AM and ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 miles. In the afternoon, I provide a potty break, followed by an evening walk of 0.5 to 1 mile. This schedule works well for my own dog, Reggie, and any pup we’re hosting. I'm available for: Scheduled or short-notice dog walks Drop-in visits Daily or multiple-times-a-day walks Weekly routines or one-time services Short-notice check-ins (with a fair, convenience-based fee) Whether your dog needs regular walks, occasional visits, or last-minute help, I'm here to provide safe, loving, and dependable care. Safety-First, Thoughtful Pet Care in a Calm and Controlled Environment For every pet care job—whether it’s dog walking, drop-in visits, or in-home hosting—I approach each responsibility with a safety-first mindset. I begin by assessing the environment, checking for any potential hazards, and observing the dog's temperament, energy level, and overall health to ensure they’re set up for a positive experience. I come fully prepared with all the essentials: leashes, treats, food (if needed), cozy beds and blankets, separate water bowls, poop bags, and anything else your pup might need to feel safe and comfortable. I believe dogs thrive in calm, predictable environments. As the walker or sitter, I take the lead in maintaining a peaceful, structured atmosphere where your dog can feel secure, enjoy their time, and have fun—all while staying under steady and attentive supervision.

“Ayh did a great job and followed all the instructions I left when watching my cats for the weekend. They sent pictures and summaries for every visit, messaged frequently, and everything looked great when I got back. I really appreciated that Ayh was attentive to my cats’ moods and respectful of their boundaries, because they can both be skittish! Ayh is definitely a cat person, and I will be booking them again.”

She knows by studying the particular breed of what to expect behavior-wise. Molly is a responsible and just person when it comes to work. If she is entrusted with someone else's dog, she will care and protect that dog from all dangers as if it were her own dog. You will like Molly :)”
