“Gabriela is fabulous! She is so so good, trusting and loving with my two baby shih tzus. They had so much fun running around outside. I would highly recommend Gabriela to watch your pets! Thank you so much for putting my mind at ease when I am at work.”
“Phoebe was a wonderful presence for my two senior dogs when I had to be gone for a very long day out of town. Once I met her I knew that they’d be in good hands and I felt at ease. She’s kind and considerate and was able give them the right kind of care. When I returned they were very calm and happy, which isn’t usually the norm when I have to leave them. She seems to have the magic touch where my two guys are concerned!”
About: I've taken care of many animals over the years. Small dogs and cats to great big dogs like great Pyrenees and German Shepards. I can give the love and attention to any animals in need.

About: Throughout my life, animals and children have been drawn to my soft energy. I’ve had and been around dogs and cats all my life. I’ve been working with my giant schnauzer and friends’ dogs that range from rescued grey hounds to small mixed breeds. I am the go-to for any pet sitting for the fur babies. I’m an aunt to a female brindle kitty that is a sassy lady but loves to snuggle me when I visit. Additionally, I frequently watch a reactive grey hound and I am able to still provide the attention she deserves. I understand patience is key when working with people and animals. I currently am a travel Behavioral Therapist for children with autism. I travel to clients’ homes and usually am not gone for more than 5 hours including commute. My weekly schedule can vary but I am clear through with my communication and the expectations needed for any situation. I am typically a homebody who enjoys movies, games, and reading. When house sitting, I usually hang around with your fur baby and offer emotional support until you return. I’ll follow their lead and offer bids for connection. I stick to the routine schedule provided to me (feedings and potty breaks). While providing the known routine for comfort to the animal, I use this time to attempt pairing whether that be with pets of affection, extra treats (if allowed and within acceptable limit), or structured play time.
“Zach is awesome! He's been dropping in on my dog Alf for months now, making me feel at ease while I'm at work. He is quick to respond to any questions and always keeps me updated throughout the evening. I couldn't recommend him more!”
“We love having Megan come out to play with our puppy, Remi. Cali also gets attention too 💜 Megan is great at leaving things just as they were found. I would recommend Megan for all your pets needs💜🐾💜”
About: I grew up with a Jack Russell and Golden! Currently, I have a 4 month old lab mix puppy named Mia. We love long walks and the dog park. I will treat your furry family member like my very own! No ask is too big or to small walk, run, bath, ext. I work in Narragansett 7-3 Monday-Friday and am happy to walk and visit any furry friend! I’d be happy to stop on my way home for you and am active in my routine. My house is puppy proofed with plenty of pet friendly toys. My puppy loves other dogs and is extremely friendly to play with and walk. I have a large crate that can be used if need be and a play pen cage. If we walk long at night I have light up collars for the pups. When traveling in the car I have seat belts for the dogs so they will be nice and safe.
“Emily was wonderful to our pets and home as always! I’m so glad we found her. Emily and her daughter take such great care of our dogs and cat, always going above and beyond to make sure they are happy, have ample opportunities to relieve themselves, and expend some energy. She gives us the most detailed notes afterwards, which help us catch up quickly and know what our dogs need for the rest of the day. She even found the Kongs I forgot to put out and stuffed them for the two dogs so they wouldn’t get bored in between walks. I really appreciated that. Every time we book Emily, we know that our pets are going to be loved and cared for, and she ALWAYS effortlessly finds a way to do a little (often a lot) more than we ask of her. Aside from the pets, she is also extremely respectful of our home and kind to our neighbors. Thank you Emily and please extend our thanks to your daughter. You two are the best and we can’t wait to book you again!”
“Lily was amazing with our girl Callie(dog). I contacted her for the first time and instantly felt safe leaving Callie with her. Lily is detailed oriented and took notes on Callie’s care. She was flexible and willing to work with us on last minute changes. Lily responds to messages quickly. Highly recommend Lily”

Rachel O.
“Rachel watched my pup, Lady, while I was home visiting my mom before moving cross country. My mom is allergic to dogs, so I asked Rachel if Lady could stay with her for a few days while I was there and I could not have chosen a better pal for her to hang out with! Lady is a high-energy Beagle/Aussie Shepherd mix and needs a lot of attention. Rachel literally went the extra mile by bringing her along on her morning runs which she LOVED. She made sure they had plenty of play time, lots of snuggles, and a whole lot of fun. When I went to pick Lady up, she was clearly very fond of Rachel and had enjoyed her time with her. It was wonderful she had so much activity and adventure during her stay, because we had a long week on the road ahead of us. I've known Rachel since high school, and would trust her with any of my fur babies in a heartbeat. 10/10 recommend 🫶🏻”
