“Booked Mirellys again and once again she was great. Chowder was thrilled to see her and came home tired and happy. Consistent, reliable, and clearly a favorite of his. Wouldn't book anyone else.”

“Crystal did a wonderful job taking care of our two Australian shepherds, Aspen and Mordi. The boys were pooped by the time they got back and seemed like they had an absolute blast. Our one boy has epilepsy and needed to be pilled during their stay which occured flawlessly. We come to the area yearly and will be using Crystal again!”

About: Hi there! My name is Sam and I am a dog lover looking for more dogs to love on. My husband Eric and I have a very sleepy Pyrenees who we are always looking to introduce to more friends! I love getting to hang with all types of dogs whether it’s walking, playing, or having them stay with us. I’ve cared for elderly dogs, puppies, and everything in between for the last 10 years. Can’t wait to meet you soon! Since covid, I am work from home most of the day and would love an extra furry friend or two to get me out of the house. Because I am work from home, I’m very flexible on walks, day cares, and much more! I love going to the dog parks around town and would be more than happy to take your baby there as well. We have a large fenced in yard to keep your fur baby busy. Not the athletic type? Great! We have a big couch and lots of comfy spots for them to laze around in.

“Lisa saved the day and took great care of our pups. Last minute request and made our stressful situation effortless. Cant wait for the pups to go back and spend time at her beautiful house and property!”

“Thanks so much Beth for such an easy great stay! Milo was chill and happy after hanging out with you and Lily. We can’t wait to see you again soon.”

“Jennifer was amazing. She was so kind, took such care of my girl, and kept me updated with photos. We came from out of town, and it was so freeing to be able to explore Salem and know that my girl was being cared for so well. She also gave great local tips on shops to visit and places to eat. I wish I had Jennifer in every state we visit.”

About: Hi there! I’m Maria - a lifelong dog lover with a passion for caring for pups of all ages and personalities. Whether you’re heading out of town, working long hours, or just need an extra hand, I’m here to make sure your furry friend gets the love, attention, and care they deserve. Available daily for daily pet sitting or overnights. Whether you need care for your pet for just a few hours or extended periods of time my schedule is flexible.

I love to spend time with the pets

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who understands how important it is to have trusted care for your furry family members! I currently share my home with a 9-year-old coonhound who loves meeting new friends. We live in a single-family home with an unfenced yard, so while supervised playtime is always fun, I don’t offer unsupervised yard access. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or extra TLC, your pup will be treated like part of our pack! I work full time from home, so your pup will have plenty of company and attention during the day. A typical day includes 2x/day 30-min walks with pee and play breaks throughout. Communication is key, and I will work with you to understand your dogs needs and preferences to ensure a safe and successful visit. As I work from home, your dog will be able to roam throughout the house which is located in a quiet suburban neighborhood.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for approximately 4 years; most recently having gained experience with energetic, adorable puppies having welcomed Prince into our home. He has brought so much joy to me and my three boys! I currently work from home and am awake by 6 AM with my puppy. I have an office set up with toys, beds and crates. We take frequent potty, play breaks and walks. I have a fenced in back yard where the dogs can play if desired. I have a fenced in yard and downstairs area of my home that have been dog proofed. I have crates for smaller and larger sized dogs and have crate trained my own fur baby who loves to have company.

About: Hi! I’m Kelsey—new to Gloucester and excited to connect with the community 😊 I previously ran a dog walking business in Providence, RI and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m happy to provide references! I offer dependable, loving dog walking and in-home sitting with a unique perk—direct beach access right on Wingaersheek Road near Coffins Beach 🌊🐾 Your dog will enjoy: • Daily beach walks with plenty of space to run and play • Fetch time (ball or frisbee!) • Optional swimming for water-loving pups • Fresh air, exercise, and a calm, cozy home environment I treat every dog like my own and always send updates/photos so you feel at ease while you’re away. I also have two cats at home, so dogs should be comfortable around cats. I’d love to chat and see if it’s a great fit for you and your pup! I maintain an active, consistent daily routine and plan my schedule around the dogs in my care. I’m typically out for a Pilates class from 8:45–9:45am, and occasionally run a quick errand afterward—but I’m happy to bring dogs along for pet-friendly outings like local farm stands or errands when appropriate. I’m available for walks late morning, mid-day, and again in the afternoon/evening after the gym. My schedule allows for multiple walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day, and I always prioritize the needs and routine of each individual dog. I provide a safe, calm, and loving home environment where dogs are treated like family. I’m very attentive to each dog’s needs, energy level, and routine, and I always prioritize their comfort and safety. Dogs in my care get plenty of exercise, whether that’s structured walks, beach time, or play, along with downtime to relax in a cozy setting. I’m experienced with a range of temperaments and can adjust to puppies, active dogs, or more relaxed/senior dogs. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions (feeding schedules, medications, crate use if needed), and I always provide regular updates and photos so you feel confident your dog is in great hands. I do have two cats at home, so dogs should be comfortable around cats.

“Diaralyz and her family took such good care of our puppy! He got to interact and socialize properly and the best part was receiving pictures and videos of him playing and living his best life. We highly recommend Diaralyz and we will be coming again with our little dog.”
