“Matt has been great to work with. Very accommodating and responsive. He has handled both our big dogs so well- even dealing with a very suspicious Rottweiler like a champ.”
“Chelsea, is extremely reliable, polite and earnest about her responsibilities! I will most definitely be booking her for future visits! I am so grateful for her being prompt to help and assist me in my time of need. My furbabies are also great full for the time she spent with them!! Thank you for being you!”
“Milena was attentive and communicative in taking care of our two cats! She is an animal lover and our boys were happy and healthy due to her home visits. We got lots of pictures and peace of mind knowing they were well looked after.”
“Jessica was fantastic. It was nice to know that our kitties were well taken care of. She sent us pictures every day. We got to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our kitties. I highly recommend using her.”
“Amanda is awesome! We live pretty far off the beaten path and didn’t think we would have much luck finding someone to help us with our chocolate lab puppy, Mosby! We both work long shift work in Baltimore that overlaps and had no idea what to do. We found Amanda who’s been awesome, always so friendly and willing to help out, even with our odd and random requests of times based on shift work. Quick to respond and she treats Mosby like he’s her own dog. We’re so happy to have found her.”
“My dog's loved Zoe from the minute she walked in the door! She is very sweet and kind. She has done a great job with my crew of 4. Highly recommend!!”
“Ali was amazing! She treated our pups like her own! Kept us updated with pictures and a note if needed every time she visited! We can’t wait to book our next drop in with Ali!”
“Great feedback about the visit and the dogs behavior.”
About: I helped open a doggy daycare in Boston, MA! I have worked in the industry since 2020 primarily as an operations manager and an attendant! Working with dogs is amazing and I love it so much! I have experience with overnights, daycare, drop in’s and walks! Fairly strong so bring on the biggest and largest dogs! I work in a college setting so summer time I’m usually completely free! I build my schedule around you! My schedule will always be updated on my profile! What ever you are looking for! I have experience with all different types of dogs and understand each one have different needs! If they are more energetic or just want to snuggle it’s fine with me! We will talk about your dogs specific needs and make sure they are met!
“Took very good care of my babies and made sure that they received everything that they needed. My dogs were very happy 😊 and she communicated with me very thoroughly regarding the care of my pets. I will definitely book her services again for my babies, they were well cared for while I was away!”
“So nice and took care of my TipToe so well! She sent many pictures and even pet my other cats!”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. From massive Collies to tiny Chihuahuas. So I'm ready for the energy or stillness that they require. No two dogs are the same and I believe they all require tailored care. I will take the time to get to know them and provide them with care that leaves them feeling recognized and loved. I love taking them for walks, belly rubs, playing, and quiet time. I am also able to groom if needed. Im happy to follow instructions and any advice you have. I am free every day except Saturday and Sunday as of now. Night time I am free every night. I am in the process of looking for a part time job and will update this as needed. As I provide client home care it looks different from client to client. Every dog has different needs and schedules, I'm always open to learn them. I take advice and feedback seriously and love to improve.
About: I have been a pet owner and caregiver my whole life. While I am a people person, I have always related the most to animals. I see them as family and friends, This means that daily routines such as feeding/watering, bathing, walking, playing, and administering medicine are not done as routines. I do them with as much intention and love as I can! I have cared for every sized dog, every cat personality, and farm animals. I am currently more available this summer: my main job is M-F, 9am - 1pm, meaning I can visit your pets 3 times a day as you need before and after those hours! I want your pets to feel as safe with me as they feel with you. I stick to the schedules I'm given, making sure I don't miss the extra pet you might give them. I enjoy cleaning as well, as this usually gives the animals a better headspace while you are out, so your home will be respected as well!
“She was great with our dogs and left detailed updates. Will definitely go with Cynthia again next time we need a dogsitter!”
“Rachel was so loving and patient with my two rescue dogs! She followed our instructions for our pups’ individual needs and even spent time cuddling with them during her drop in visits. She was super responsive and willing to be flexible with help! Would definitely book again!”
“Elizabeth met me before my trip to get to know my house and cats. She really looked out for my cats and texted me every day so I wasn’t worried. It was a great experience!”
About: I have had pets ever since I was a child, I also work at a dog kennel and have experience with a variety of dog behaviors and breeds. I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets! I am especially available for overnights and during the day, weekends included. I have three black labs, I am very comfortable walking multiple dogs, as well as being around all different sizes and breeds, I work with dogs everyday and am very comfortable with what works best for you!
“Danielle exceeded our expectations when she stepped in to do drop in visits for our two cats in a last minute urgent situation. She took excellent care of our fur babies and we will be sure to book her again in the future.”
“Your note about our dog trying to open the cabinet for a treat cracked me up! Thank you for taking such good care of Butters!”
“Amanda was beyond amazing! She took great care of our pup, took him for a couple of walks and played with him in our yard. Our pup Buckley truly enjoyed his time with Amanda and highly recommend her to take care of fur animals! We will for sure be booking again in the future with her.”
