Alison is an amazing cat sitter! She was thorough in her questions during our video chat beforehand, and took exceptional care of our Rosie while we were away. We had peace of mind knowing Rosie was well fed, had a clean litter box, and was provided ample play time. Will definitely be booking Alison again!

Riven was excellent. She was always on time for the scheduled visits, spent time with the dogs, and was very communicative about how they were doing. Our dogs seemed very happy. I would highly recommend Riven

About: I've owned and cared for animals since high school. In addition to dogs and cats, I've owned horses since I was 16. I have been\am a foster parent for the Animal Rescue League of Boston since 2020. I'm a former puppy foster for service dogs and participated with early puppy training. I have carried those skills over to training other foster puppies and my personal dog. I have a medical background (EMT) and my daughter is a Vet Tech so I am very comfortable working with animals with medical needs and will follow any required medical plan. In addition to dogs and cats, I'd love to meet\care for your backyard farm animals; horses, pot-bellied pigs, chickens, goats, sheep, etc. I have experience with some of these animals through ownership and fostering opportunities. I'm open to meeting and learning about new friends. We currently have 4 dogs, 4 cats, and 2 horses in our home. All our animals are our babies and I'll care for yours as if they were my own. I'm currently unemployed so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I'm available for petsitting any day of the week and can work around any personal appointments. Boarding in my home is restricted to cats or other small animals. Puppies (under 1 year) may be accomodated, no adult dogs. For cats; we have a dedicated "cat room" to keep your pet separated from our pets. The room has a screen door so they don't feel locked away and can be part of our household while remaining safe. I will follow your pet care plan while in your home. For Puppies; all dogs are fed separately to avoid food aggression situations. All puppies will be crated for meals and sleeping overnight. If your puppy is not crate trained, I will work with them to ensure they are comfortable and not afraid. I can support your potty training schedule to maintain consistency.

About: I have owned a cat and a dog. I watch or check in on my friends' and family's pets when they are away from vacation. I WFH fairly regularly so check-ins are really easy. House sitting is doable, but would need to coordinate times as i have some activities with my kid. Animals are all about routine and I don't like to rock the boat. However you take care of your pets is how i want to provide for them.

About: Soaking up all the kitty loving I can after a lifetime of not being allowed to have pets at home. I will care for your fur babies as my own and give them all the loving while you're away. I am currently a stay at home mom looking for things to do outside of the home while the kids are at school. I will love on your fur babies any time you need! We have one cat in our home that is friendly and curious about new furry friends and people too! She is out going and will take loving from anyone.

About: I’ve been a dog walker for 2 years. Each dog gets all the lovings and attention from me every time! I do drop in visits to feed a meal and just let them out, or I’ll take them on 15-30 minutes walks (weather/temp dependent). Dog walking is my current job, I’m just looking to fill my schedule a little more. I typically start around 10am and the last dog gets walked around 3pm so anywhere in that time frame works for me! I have worked with dog aggressive dogs by using an E-collar so I’m knowledgeable on how to use those correctly. I am comfortable putting dogs into their crate if needed as well.

Kristen is amazing!!! She needed to shovel her way in to feed our cats one night, *and* she had to clean up one of my forgetful messes, but Kristen stops at nothing to make sure our home and pets are well cared for! She also managed to befriend my very suspicious cats— no easy feat! Will definitely use Kristen again when needed! 🙌🙌

Bonnie is so great with Sarsaparilla. She can sometimes be a feisty girl and it takes time for her warm up to people, but Bonnie is so patient and kind. And I always know she's taking such good care of my cat, because even if Sarsaparilla plays hard to get when Bonnie is here, she sits at the door waiting for her to come back!

About: I’ve been caring for pets for many years and understand that every animal has unique needs and personalities. I currently have a 12-year-old Japanese Akita, a 13-year-old German Shepherd, and a young Highlander cat, giving me hands-on experience with both senior pets and energetic younger animals. Caring for my senior dogs has taught me the importance of patience, recognizing health concerns, maintaining routines, administering basic care, and adjusting exercise levels based on age and mobility. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds, including large dogs, and I understand the importance of safe handling, positive interactions, and consistent care. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, medication reminders, or companionship while you’re away, I will treat them as if they were my own. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and communicative, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos during every visit so you can have complete peace of mind. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a part of my daily routine. I care for my 12-year-old Japanese Akita, senior German Shepherd, and young Highlander cat every day, including feeding, walks, exercise, grooming, playtime, and monitoring their health and well-being. Caring for pets has taught me the importance of consistency, patience, and attention to detail. Because pet care is already a regular part of my life, I can easily incorporate walks, drop-in visits, and other pet care services into my weekly schedule while providing reliable and attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strive to maintain their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care needs. I make sure pets have fresh water, receive plenty of attention and exercise, and are kept safe at all times. I also respect my clients’ homes by keeping everything clean and secure. Communication is important to me, so I provide updates and photos during visits to give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away.
