I offer flexible scheduling and give regular updates so you’re never out of the loop. You can count on me for walks, playtime, cuddles, meds, and more! I don’t have pets of my own (yet!), but I plan to adopt when I meet the perfect match. In the meantime, I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. Your pet will also enjoy a secure, spacious backyard — perfect for sniffing, playing, and relaxing. What I’d Love to Know About Your Pet To provide the best care, I ask about your pet’s breed, personality, exercise needs, diet, and any health concerns. This helps me tailor my care so your pet stays happy, healthy, and well-loved during their stay! I’m available for cat and dog sitting whenever you need, with flexible scheduling to accommodate your plans. Your furry friend will receive dedicated care and attention. I work from home part-time, I do not have any pets at the moment but I plan to adopt when I meet the right dog or cat (: Your pets safety is my top priority. With a spacious, secure backyard, I provide a trusting environment where your pets can explore and relax comfortably.

“Jeremy and Rui were amazing and generous! I had a last minute daycare request and submitted my booking; they were very accommodating and provided exceptional flexibility for my family and I. Throughout the day, they also sent me updates and photos to ensure that everything is well taken care of. After this experience, I highly recommend them for their services.”


“Alisyn and Jacob were so attentive and loving! My scheduled care had an emergency at the last minute and Alisyn graciously took Mazir with short notice. She sent us photos that showed him cautious at first but then settling into his stay. The second day, he went with her as if she was a trusted friend and I was so relieved. We were able to focus on our event commitments with a clear conscious and will definitely use Alisyn again!!!”


“Elaine is an incredibly gifted woman regarding dog training. She is a gem. Our 4-month-old puppy spent two full days at her doggie day care and loved it. She commands attention from all dogs, small and large, and it felt so safe to leave our pup with her. She updated us with several photos of our pup’s activities throughout each day. She also reinforced some of his already learned techniques and taught him more. Her training advice helped us rewardingly. We will definitely return!! Thank you, Elaine!!”

About: Hi there, thanks for giving us a look! We’re a sweet little family of tiny pups. We’ve just moved from the city to the “country” and we’re loving it! We’ve built ourselves a small dog park in the back yard, complete with river stones, fire hydrants and entirely fenced in. For rainy days, we have a 1,500sq/ft tiled basement with tons of toys and plenty of room to run and play. Every guest we have is treated like family, and most of our visitors have become extended family. We have a lot of fun & we love new friends. Can’t wait to meet you!! I’m currently working part time from home, so I have plenty of time to play outside & go for walks. Im available 7 days a week, and holidays. We have a great fenced in yard where the pups love to run! There’s sunny & shady spots & lots to explore! We spend lots of time outside, weather permitting. Inside, our couches are always covered & the dogs roam freely. We have a dedicated doggy room for crates & pee-pee pads. There’s lots of room to play & snuggle and we keep the treats coming for all of our furry buddies.

About: I’ve always been a dog lover, and have dealt with many breeds and dispositions. I started fostering about 8 years ago and have had all sorts of ages and temperaments. I have 2 dogs who both get along great with other dogs. They are respectful, we’ve had many nervous dogs that they’ve helped feel comfortable. We’d love to watch your pups! I work full time but my job is very flexible, and my office is only about 5 min away. I have a hybrid schedule, on the days I go to the office I come home at lunch. But I’m also able to stay home if 4 hrs is too long for a dog to be here without a potty break! I have a fenced in, large yard, and my 2 fur babies try at will help keep your dog happy and occupied! I have several different sized crates for when I’m not home (as well as at night if that’s where they sleep!), as well as pens if that’s a better option for your dog

“Definitely recommend! She is so knowledgeable and patient (with my dog AND me). I’m going to hire her for training too.”


About: I am a regular dog sitter for friends. I love to walk dogs in our very walkable neighborhood or down at the waterfront or state forest. I am retired and go away quite a bit in the winter to ski, but also come home to care for house and home most weekends. My yard is safely fenced and would only let dog out to use “the facilities” when needed,other wise would walk regularly. I haven’t met a g Dog I don’t get along with!

“This was our first time using Rover and our experience was so amazing because of Angelea and her husband! We were visiting from out of state and decided at the last minute to spend a full day in Boston exploring. Angelea was super responsive and took Chewie in within a couple hours notice. We knew once we dropped Chewie off that he would be in great hands and he had the best day with them! Angelea sent me pics and updates throughout the day and she was also willing to keep Chewie longer than the original end time requested. Definitely a 5 star family who we would use again if we could!”



“Linda took great care of my dog and flexible for last minute changes. She took her for many walks and sent me pictures/updates throughout the day. I’d definitely recommend Linda to take care of your pet. They’ll be in good hands!”

I have day availability as well as over nights. My daughter went off to college and now these 2 spoiled pups have their own rooms with 2 more guest rooms all set up with beds and crates if you are crate training I have a very large fenced in back yard and if your fur baby is on the smaller side and you prefer I have a “kiddie pool” fenced in area overlooking the backyard


About: Dog owners will like that i have a dog park and am willing to bring them on long walks. I have two dogs of my own who love other dogs. My experience as a dog walker/sitter is that i have taken care of dogs when owners go out of town and they love the care i provide. I am caring and love animals. I always want to make sure i provide the best possible care possible. I hope people can see i love animals by keeping them busy all day. They need lots of exercise and to be socialized. I know that showing dogs that being around them can make them happy. Dogs need to be petted and have lots of exercise. I am a dog lover and hope that people will know that.

About: Hi, I'm Reaghan! I have been watching dogs in my home for 5 years now. I will follow your instructions on routines and feedings. I will give you peace of mind while you're away and treat your fur babies with love! My family and I love to love on your fur babies! I stay at home full time so they just follow me around and get lots of attention and love. We have a yard for them to play.

I have experience working with high energy animals, low energy, animals with special needs, and pets that require injection medication. We are happy to take on older dogs or dogs with special needs or diets.

About: I am an acting student at Pace University pursuing a BFA in Acting. I have grown up with dogs since I was little and have loved every minute of it! I am a firm believer that the bond between a person and their dog is unlike any other; in that there is an unspoken love between you two, and that the love and care given to them should respect that bond. My favorite thing to do when I am home at my parents' is to sit on the floor with my childhood pets, a cup of tea, and hold, pet, and give them love for exorbitant amounts of time. I give my word that the care and affection with which I treat your dogs will mirror if not exceed that with which I treat my own.

About: I’ve always loved all animals since I was a little kid. I have been pet sitting for family and friends for the past 5 years and currently work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility! Currently I am a part-time student with a wide range of availability. I’m available Mondays, Tuesdays until 6pm, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, also Saturdays and Sundays! I will care for and love your pets as if they are my own! I have completed a PackPro dog safety training course, have lots of experience with rescued/anxious dogs, and I will clearly follow any instructions I am given!

“Lee has been a dear friend of ours for over 20 years, and has taken care of our 12 1/2 year old Springer Spaniel throughout our dog's entire life. You will not find anyone more enthusiastic, conscientious, responsible, compassionate, and a steward of your pet's well being than Lee. We consider Lee's home our dog's second home, and their bond is unmistakeable. We have had several issues over the years with the dog's health while in Lee's care, and thanks to her medical background, we have always felt that our pet couldn't be in better hands to react to any situation. We unconditionally recommend Lee for any pet caregiving!”
