“Megan did an awesome job taking care of our cat and dog for the weekend. She was a great communicator with us and home and pets looked perfect when we came home! Will love to use her again in the future.”
“Brittany was great. We were very nervous about leaving our baby but she made him and us very comfortable and put our worries at ease so we were able to enjoy our time away She sent us regular updates as well as pics of theie time together and she treated our home as if it were her own. Will definitely book with her again. Thank you Brittany!”
“Joy was absolutely amazing. She provided great updates and photos each evening and our dog was very happy in her care. He had so much fun with her that he hardly even notices when we came home. I will be checking for Joy’s availability first for all our future trips!”
“Theo is amazing! He sent photos and updates frequently. Most importantly he knew what charly needed and provided lots of TLC! He also left our home cleaner than when I left! 5/5 stars!!! ⭐️”
“Lilian was fantastic with Dexter and Nova during our booking. Dexter, our energetic little pup, and Nova, our sweet cat, were both calm, happy, and clearly well cared for when we got home. Lilian kept everything smooth and stress‑free, giving them plenty of attention and making sure their routines stayed on track. It’s such a relief knowing they were in kind, capable hands. We’d definitely book with her again!”
“Mikayla stayed with our active Jack Russell for 2 weeks while we were away. I never worried about our pup, knowing that she was being taken care of and played with. Mikayla shared updates and pictures, and answered promptly when I checked in with her. I recommend her without hesitation, we have never been so at ease while away.”
About: I love to work with animal, I’ve been in the veterinary profession for 10+ years. If your pet has special care instructions I will follow them perfectly. I have dogs, cats, and horses at home so I am very comfortable working with all sizes of animals. I also know how to care for birds, fish, guinea pigs, and hamsters and pigs. I know how much a pet can mean to someone so ill will care for yours as if they were my own I currently work 4 days a week. I am available Fridays to Sunday’s if you are looking for a weekend getaway or if you have a busy weekend and would like your dog to go for a walk I don’t offer in my home dog services but can offer cat or small animal boarding. You tell me home you’d like your pet cared for, weather it’s taking them for a walk or just letting them out in a fenced in area
“Ailyn was great! She took excellent care of our anxious dog and our two cats. She also sent pictures and updated us over the course of the stay. I would highly recommend her!”
“Sarah was nothing short of amazing! She went out of her way to make my 2, very attached, dogs extremely comfortable during our week away. Despite the thunderstorms and holiday fireworks they were happy and at ease. It was an added bonus that we came home to a clean house AND relaxed happy dogs. Sarah was diligent, respectful and very professional. This is our first time using Rover and I couldn't be any happier with Sarah. We will be repeat customers for sure!”
“Nathan was wonderful - providing loving care for my two dogs. He was on time, offered support when my dog sprained her ankle, and attentive to their needs. Thank you Nathan!”
“Rachel was amazing with Bert and Maisy. She followed their exact schedule and also exercised them every day multiple times a day. She was very attentive to both doggies especially when Maisy had a bout of illness. She was so communicative and kept me in the loop with how they were doing and sent pictures. I felt so comfortable and reassured they were getting the best care while we were away. I would highly recommend Rachel for your pet sitting needs!! ❤️”
“First time using Avery and she was wonderful! She arrived at the agreed upon time, communicated well and sent daily pictures of Ranger and Daisy. She followed instructions for feeding and engaged well with our dogs for play. When we returned our dogs were happy and had obviously been well cared for. Avery stayed at our house since our dogs do best in their own home. She left the house spotless. We will definitely book with Avery again.”
“Ashley was AWESOME! We left town for a few days and felt so comfortable. The dogs were happy (and so was the baby bearded dragon). Sheet pictures and kept in contact. We have a dog that runs and were definitely worried, but Ashley had zero issues. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Such a relief to know my guys had someone to love them while I was gone! The house was cleaner when I came home than when I left and my guys were happy. A great experience!”
“Again Philip was a great choice for watching widget in our home while we were gone most of the day! Always communicative, sends lots of pictures and is super flexible.”
“We were very happy with Sarah all around; she was friendly, reliable, and took very good care of our pup while staying in our house. I recommend her to others and would definitely book her again. :)”
“Sarah-Jane has stayed for overnight care of our cats a few times now, and they are always well taken care of and happy! We feel better being away and knowing someone is with them and giving them the play time they need. Thanks!”
About: I grew up with black labs throughout my childhood and have recently adopted an orange tabby cat named Cheeto. I’m very comfortable taking care of both cats and dogs. I currently work remotely from South Boston which makes my schedule flexible for most hours during the week and weekends. I will have no problem making it to sitting appointments on time. I am very responsible and have taken care of my friends and family’s pets at their residence and have never misplaced a key and always leave their home as I found it.

Sarah is such a gem! We felt so lucky to have her watching our little guy while we were gone. She was super responsive in communication, and thought ahead for all our dog's needs. She was flexible in accommodating him at her house and open to seeing how he responded to the new environment(s) he was exposed to. She was really attuned to him which made it a smooth transition for him. Would completely recommend Sarah! She's kind, patient, and attuned to animals. A great find!
Sarah was the best! Our cat was having a flare up of his urinary tract issue and I was SO worried about leaving him for the weekend, but Sarah made it so we didn’t even have to think about it or worry about him the whole time we were gone. She gave us an update each night on everyone and especially on Pippins state which made us feel so much better. Fortunately he was good the whole time and he didn’t need to go to the vet, but Sarah asked questions about what to look for and what to do if any symptoms showed up. I would absolutely recommend her because of the peace of mind we had leaving our babies and our house with her!
