“Kind, caring, and professional. Updates with pictures so you can be sure your pets are doing well. Just the the kind of person you hope to find to take care of your babies while you go away on a trip. Can’t recommend enough”

About: I've always believed life is better with fur on your clothes and after years of caring for my own pets, I turned that passion into something bigger. Now I get to spend my days doing what I love most: caring for your four-legged family members while you're away. I make sure your pet gets the attention, love, and care they deserve. As a lifelong pet parent myself, I get how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family. That's why I treat every cat and dog like one of my own with patience, playfulness, and lots of love. So whether your dog needs a walking buddy or your cat needs someone to chat with while you're out, I'm here to help with a leash in one hand and a lint roller in the other. Fully insured. I am devoting all of my time to dog walking and pet sitting, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pet. I am happy to come to your home to care for your pet for either dog walking or pet sitting. I will care for your pet as if it were my own!
“Stephanie was great! She took wonderful care of our kitty while we were away, including giving him insulin shots 2x a day. She was very communicative and sent us plenty of pictures after each visit! I would recommend Stephanie and would use her again.”
About: Working at a lively doggy daycare, I care for up to 15 dogs at once, so nothing surprises me! Big, small, shy, or mischievous, I know how to keep dogs safe while having a blast! Your pup will get plenty of love, playtime, and cuddles, plus photo updates so you can see them in real time :) I work full time (about 35 hours a week) at a doggy daycare, so caring for animals is part of my everyday life. On workdays, I’m available around 11:30 AM–1:00 PM for walks, treats, and fresh water. I’m home again after work for the rest of the evening to give plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. Weekends are my favorite, I’m home all day and fully available for boarding, sitting, and walks, so your pet gets round-the-clock love and care! In my home, pets have plenty of space, toys, and attention. I always supervise and will separate my cats if needed to keep everyone safe. For in client home visits, I follow your instructions, provide food, water, and cuddles, and send photo updates so you know your pet is happy and secure. I also don’t mind helping out with bringing in the mail, and or cleaning up a bit!
“Amanda is absolutely AWESOME! My cat was instantly comfortable with her and loved every single visit with her. She is extremely proactive, organized, caring and gentle. You will certainly find a forever pet sitter in her.”
About: Hi, my wife Ali and I have been boarding and walking dogs for years. We have 3 small dogs and 1 parrot of our own. We live in a large apartment that is very dog friendly and with a very nice brand new dog park in our complex. My wife is always home as she works from home and I work overnight so your pet will never be alone. We love to care for all dogs or other animals! We have 2 young children so your dog must be good around kids as well. If you have any questions please message me. Unfortunately at the time we are not excepting any large breeds (dogs that stand really tall on 4 legs) unless they are a small puppy and are 35lbs or less. We are am extremely flexible with pet schedules, as of right now we bring our own dogs out every 3-4 hours for potty breaks and playtime outdoors. I visit our dog park a minimum of 3x a day. We seem to be the only ones who really utilize it. We use the Fenced in dog park in our complex for free unleashed play and the dogs really love it and it has fun dog equipment and fresh dog water bubbler.
About: I have been overnight house sitting and providing pet care for dogs and cats for different families for the past three years. I’d love to continue to do so. Right now, I am free to dog sit everyday. I also babysit occasionally on weekdays and weekends. I will find time in my schedule to help families out. I am located in Franklin, MA and Amherst, MA. I have worked with relief foster for service dogs at UMass for the past two years. I love working on training or just getting to play with some animals. When I’m caring for your pet—whether it’s during a walk or while house-sitting—I treat your home and your furry friend with the utmost respect and care. I follow your instructions closely to maintain your pet’s routine and environment, keeping things familiar and stress-free. During walks, I use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid unsafe areas, and stay alert to ensure your pet’s safety at all times. For house-sitting, I keep your home tidy, lock up securely, and provide updates so you always know how things are going. Trust and transparency are key—I’m here to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have experience caring for both cats and dogs! I have worked (and lived) with mean cats and know how to handle reactive dogs as well. I’m working part time, with plenty of free time on Thursdays, Fridays, and most Saturdays. I would also be available to care for any furry friends early morning and later nights on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays as well! I will show your pets plenty of love and care. I follow any instructions provided by the owner and make sure when I leave the pet is safe and secure and has been loved.
About: I have had my own dog for almost 5 yrs so I am a pro and have watched dogs of all breeds and ages. I have lots of energy and am happy to go on walks, play tug of war, fetch, or just stay in and cuddle. I am currently in PA school, so although not a vet I have experience with medications and medical care if needed. I am currently in PA school so my schedule changes frequently but often I only have part time commitments and am looking to hang out with some pups to fill my free time! My house is puppy proofed for my own dog and ready to go for any guests! I do not have a fenced in yard but go out often with dogs on leash. I have been responsible for kids and pets for almost 15 years and am a pro at this point!
“Kelsey is awesome! She took amazing care of our two shy kitties while we were away. Highly recommend Kelsey for anyone looking for a wonderful person to keep an eye on your fur babies when you are away.”

“Describe Corinne in three words? Hard-working dog lover! She shows up early and goes above and beyond to offer the most love and attention to all her furry friends.

I can’t recommend Corinne enough!”

She’s also helped me with some of my own bookings as a sitter before, and is always extremely willing to help however she can. I would fully trust Allie with either of my pets.”
