“So so amazing! Affordable, kind, communicative, so many other positive things! She took such a great care of Colin. He didn’t even want to leave, he was having so much fun! She sent me so many pictures and videos, so I knew Colin was in excellent hands!!”


“Fitz really loves spending time with David. When I dropped him off, his tail wagged so hard and he nearly leapt out of the car to see him. David is always communicative and kind. We are so grateful for him!”


“Meredith took great care of Benny during his stay. She responded to all messages quickly and sent us updates throughout! We appreciated that she was able to take Benny for daycare on relatively short notice too.”


“Emma was great with our 12 year old cockapoo. She was communicative, on time, and sent lots of pictures. Quincy loved his time with her and we'll be using her again!”

“Maple had an excellent stay with Edward and Shayna! What a lovely couple! They took excellent care of her and were attentive to her special needs as a puppy. I highly recommend for those with daycare needs in the back bay.”


About: I’ve taken care of and trained many puppies/dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 6 years old and am now a pup parent to my own 4 month old mini dachshund. I’ve had terriers, Rottweilers, goldens, Dalmatians, dachshunds etc. and know the kind of specific care and love needed for each breed. These babies have their own little souls and I’d love to help out any loving pet parents and reduce any stress or fear you may have when leaving them in the care of someone else. I’m super active on my phone and work from home so am available on demand and ready with pictures and updates for peace of mind. Looking forward to working together soon and meeting you furry family members! I work from home and have my own puppy so I’m available almost 24/7 for walks and potty time before, after, and during work hours and on weekends. I live in a high end apartment with lots of doggy amenities including many green spaces and fenced play areas for lots of potty breaks and long walks. I have my own small friendly pup who can keep yours company and tire them out as well as have crates and gates available, lots of toys, and ramps for the smaller dogs to save their backs!

“Jennifer and Darren are both wonderful. She even made homemade treats for a friend and shared them with Kingsley, sent him some for home and he loved them! Thanks for being flexible as well, I was running late for pick-up and she was super kind about it.”


“Sandra went above and beyond to make both me and Koda feel so comfortable. She was communicative, reliable, and caring. I could tell Koda loved her and had an amazing time. I was so impressed with Sandra and will absolutely be reaching out to her again.”


About: Hi, I’m Emmy! I grew up surrounded by cats and dogs and have been caring for animals my whole life. I currently have two cats of my own and have experience with dogs of all sizes — from tiny Yorkies to giant Malamute Huskies. I also worked at a veterinary hospital for 1.5 years as an assistant and receptionist, giving me hands-on experience with vet care, administering medications, and responding to emergencies. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, tiny, or large, I’m comfortable providing loving, attentive care tailored to their unique needs! I’m a grad student about to enter summer break so I have all of the free time in the world to tailor to your pets needs. I would love nothing more than to make a new furry friend this summer. I have a decently sized two bedroom apartment—and as a pet parent myself—no room or furniture is off limits to your fur baby unless requested by you. I have several grassy parks in the area ideal for walking.

“Tracy was amazing and my dog had the best day. He loves to sleep and snuggle and had a calm, restful day which is just what he needed. I take him to doggy daycare too and it wipes him out so it was amazing to find someone who works remotely who could give him 1:1 time, relax and play.”


“Kelsey is Loki's go-to sitter. She takes great care of Loki, and takes walks with him and provides good stimulation throughout the day. He is so happy when he figures out we're headed to Kelsey's house.”


About: I work from home and can provide a comfortable routine for your pet that includes potty breaks in the yard, walks around the city, and playtime with my dog. I can also take your dog for a run or to the dog park if approved. I have experience caring for many different types of dogs, including Vizslas, German Shorthaired Pointers, Setters, Cocker Spaniels, Dachshunds, and Doodles. I work from home. We typically do 2-3 activities outside every day with our dog, including a walk, run, or dog park playtime on top of regular potty breaks. My dog likes to look out the window or lay in the yard while I work and likes to snuggle on the couch in the evening. I can crate all pets in the home if I need to run an errand and at night for bedtime, if needed. Regular potty breaks are given in addition to keeping an eye out for dogs asking to go out.


“Kim is a great sitter! She was prompt and attentive and my dog stops at her house when we walk by in the morning - definitely an endorsement by him as well.”


“Vish and AJ are AMAZING! I felt so confident leaving my dog with them. I received updates and pictures and was able to focus on my work instead of worrying. They played with him, brushed him, and took him for walks. They could not have been better to him. Vish and AJ are clearly dog lovers and I would recommend them 10/10!”


“Highly recommend Kevin and Eva. They took very good care of Loki, brought him on walks, played with him and sent me lots of pictures throughout the day. They were very nice, responsive and flexible about drop off and pick up. I will for sure leave Loki in their care again in the future.”


“Dayquan was the perfect sitter for our anxious pup. He was incredibly patient and attentive - I feel so lucky that we found him. I would recommend him to any doggy parent looking for day care!”


“Masiel was able to accommodate us for a very last minute daycare request which we couldn’t be more grateful for. She was very kind and attentive to detail. Khloe took to her immediately. She honored all of our requests regarding Khloe’s care and we received pictures and updates throughout the day. Khloe seemed to enjoy her time with Masiel very much and even got a super cute toy to bring home. We will definitely rebook with Masiel next time we’re in Boston.”


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!
