Pam was great. We booked on short notice for Christmas and the day after. She is great with dogs, even a slightly nervous pit bull mix like mine. This was the first time we used Rover and Pam made the process very easy. She communicated everything well and showed up right on time. Can't recommend her enough.

The piece of mind that Karissa gives us makes our vacation totally stress-free. She is caring, sensitive, and a wonderful caretaker for our "babies." What a terrific young lady!

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies (especially Holland Lops!), and even small rodents like hamsters and guinea pigs. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and your pet will be treated just like one of the family while they’re with me. I have a fully fenced-in yard and a cozy home filled with love—and four wonderful, respectful kids who are just as excited to welcome your furry friend as I am. We believe in gentle hands, lots of attention, and keeping routines as close to home as possible. I also have: • A well-behaved, fixed dog with a calm temperament who gets along well with others • An extra crate and room to accommodate different needs • A work-from-home schedule, so I’m home most of the day for supervision, cuddles, and potty breaks • A love for long neighborhood walks—perfect for active pups who enjoy fresh air and exercise Whether your pet needs space to play, snuggles on the couch, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m here to provide a safe, loving environment. Boutique, In-Home Style Care 🐾 I’m a low-volume sitter by choice because I believe pets thrive best in an environment that closely mirrors their own home. Your fur baby won’t be one of many — I only board one family at a time, ensuring individualized attention, consistency, and calm. There’s no crating all day or night here (unless that’s part of your pet’s normal routine). Pets are treated like family — lounging comfortably, following familiar schedules, and receiving the same level of care, affection, and structure they’re used to at home. If you’re looking for a peaceful, home-style experience where your pet receives truly personalized care rather than a kennel setting, you’re in the right place. 💛 I’d love to meet your pet and answer any questions you have. Let’s chat and see if we’re a good fit! I work remotely, so I’m home all day long! Evenings may be busy with ubering my kids around, but your babies will be kept in a safe and clean environment if I’m gone for a short time. I have a fenced in yard, for the dogs to play. My kids are well versed in pet safety, regarding doors and gates. And I have two separate areas of the house your babies are free to roam that are away from outside access doors. When boarding, please bring all supplies. Food, treats, toys. Animals away from home may be confused. Bedding, smells from home are comforting! I do have litter boxes, but do not store litter, as cats have different preferences. Please bring enough litter for your stay.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We can't praise Mike enough for his incredible pet-sitting services! He has stayed over and also dropped in for visits. He has taken care of our three dogs and two cats flawlessly. Mike not only follows our instructions to the T, but also has a remarkable ability for understanding our pets' needs even without detailed guidance. It truly gives us peace of mind knowing our furry crew are in such capable hands. His warm and caring approach makes it clear that he genuinely loves animals, and our pets adore him! If you're looking for a reliable and skilled pet sitter, we highly recommend Mike. You won't regret it!

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lovers with a deep passion of caring for pets of all kinds. Growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, and plenty of other furry (and not-so-furry) friends taught me how much love and care they deserve. My top priority is always making sure your pets are happy, healthy, and feeling loved. From feeding routines and walks to cuddle time (or just calm company for the more independent types), I make sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for according to their unique personality. I love keeping pets engaged with fun, stimulating activities. For cats, that might mean interactive toys, puzzle feeders, or laser play. For dogs, it’s usually games of fetch, tug-of-war, or a good old-fashioned frisbee toss. Even reptiles get the same thoughtful attention (maybe less cuddling, but plenty of care and respect!). Every pet deserves the best care possible, and that’s what I promise to provide. Whether you’re going away for a day or a week, I will treat your furry family member as if they were our own. I’d love to meet your pets and help you feel at ease while you’re away!

About: No dog too big or small :) My first dog was a St. Bernard/Lab mix and I currently have a two Havanese pups that are brothers. I am reliable, believe in clear communication and provide frequent updates/pictures to ensure that owners are comfortable knowing their pets are safe and happy while they’re away! I’m currently in school part-time and have a per diem job so I’m pretty flexible with my time. Let me know what works for you and your pup(s) (or cats) and I’m sure we can figure something out. I’m good at reading different signals/body language for what your pet may be trying to tell me. I’ll make sure to build trust and give them all the extra love and attention while you’re away!

Michael has been absolutely wonderful with our doggo! He has such a care and attention to her needs, and even helped out when she got into trouble and got into our pantry lol. We have a reactive dog, and he's been great with taking her for walks and managing her energy and needs safely. We can tell that she is very comfortable with him, and would recommend Micheal to anyone with a furry friend! :)

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for over 10 years, and I truly see them as family. I currently work as a Pet Care Specialist at an animal daycare, where I care for pets daily by supervising playtime, ensuring safety, feeding, monitoring behavior, and giving lots of love and attention. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including shy or energetic pups. I love spending time playing with them, taking them outside, giving cuddles, and making sure they always feel safe and happy. Pets bring me emotional strength, comfort, and joy, and I’m grateful for every moment I get to care for them. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week. I’m available seven days a week and can usually accommodate walks, drop-ins, and sitting as needed. I’m also happy to travel within about 40 miles, and I’m often in the Worcester or Acton area. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel calm, loved, and secure at all times. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions you provide. I also pay close attention to behavior and body language so I can respond to their needs right away. Whether we’re playing, walking, or relaxing, your pet will always be safe, supervised, and well-cared for with me.

About: I have 11 year old 6 pound Maltese girl that had a separation anxiety. So i completely understand how nerve breaking it could be to leave your fur babies at home unattended. I have gone fully remote for my work so i can stay home with my fur baby! I thought i'd offer my help to the fellow fur parents whose pets may also be suffering from separation anxiety. Mimi loves to sleep throughout the day so she'd love a cuddle buddy! Mimi has 4 potty breaks throughout the day. In the morning, at 12pm and another around 5pm and before sleep. If your puppy needs more frequent potty breaks I can certainly accomodate! I will do minimum or 2 walks (@12pm and 5pm) and my house shares a fence with county park! Leash is strictly enforced, so please bring me your leash! I have more than 8 dog beds throughout the house. Basically each room has a dog bed as Mimi follows me around everywhere. Your fur baby's welcome to use the dog beds or couch! It's wooden floor throughout and we have a bell on the patio door so if your fur baby wants to go potty, he/she can simply ring the bell!

We have used Adriane on a previous occasion and we're so pleased with the excellent care Jesse got that we felt super comfortable leaving Jesse in her care for an extended time. Adrienne sends pictures and videos every day and it is obvious that Jesse adores Adriane. Highly recommended!
