“Our dogs had a blast at Nicole’s place. They got to run around in her nice fenced in yard, played a lot of fetch and got to cool off in the kiddie pool. Nicole and her family are obviously dog lovers and I was so happy we left our girls with them. I would highly recommend Nicole to care for your pups as if they were her own.”
“Lucy always comes home from John's happy and tired. I appreciate that he takes her on actual walks rather than just letting her out in the yard, and she really enjoys playing with his pup as well. Thank you John!”
“Briana made me feel so at ease leaving Moose, even on short notice. He was clearly relaxed, happy, and safe in her care. The thoughtful updates and outstanding photos meant the world. We’re so grateful—and will absolutely book again!”
“Ericca was wonderful with our new dog, Arlo. Arlo is a rescue and he is reactive to other dogs and Ericca knew just how to handle him. Arlo spent the entire day with Ericca and he had a great time. We will definitely be working with her again!”
“Elli was great. We needed someone to sit for our dog while we relaxed and went out to dinner while on vacation. We love to travel with our dog but hate to leave him in the room while we go out by ourselves. As it turns out, Ellie lives near the inn we stayed at and works there too! She very conveniently picked up our dog right at the inn and dropped him off when we were done for the evening. She also took a picture of our dog and was available to text to see how he was doing. He enjoyed playing with her dogs and I would definitely contact Elli again if traveling in the area.”
“Jessica and her daughter were fabulous hosts!! First off where they live is phenomenal!! It is so green and surrounded with wilderness. Loads of beautiful hiking areas and a nice big house!! They both come across as really gentle giving kind hearted people who are great with animals!! Bruno had a great time with them and was ready to go to sleep when we got home last night!! I would definitely recommend them and plan to use them again in the future!!”
“Mady was great with Molly and communication with our fly by the seat of our pants schedule. She watched Molly for 2 separate days. When we pulled into the driveway on the second day Molly was excited to be there. If Molly is happy, I'm happy. Thanks Mady!”
About: Hi! I’m Nico! For years, friends and family always called me first when they needed a pet sitter, the pets and I both loved it! For 15-years as a butler and personal assistant to families in NYC & LA, management of high quality pet care has been one of my favorite responsibilities! Feeling lucky to have learned from all the best celebrity dog trainers in the world! My husband Matthew and I are new-ish to Franklin County, Massachusetts, and my current local clients would gladly provide references if you wanted to hear how care I’ve provided for their furry family members! I am currently working from home, writing a book, and would love more reasons to get up, get out, walk, and have some pets in the home too! I have dog bowls, beds, toys, and a big yard backed up to the woods for fuzzy friends to enjoy! If your pooch is not great off leash, that’s ok! I also have an outdoor pen and doghouse to keep them safe while I’m outside gardening! I love to have the dogs near me at all times!
“Letícia took great care of Juni and was very thoughtful about making sure Juni was comfortable. Letícia is very responsible and caring and capable. I will definitely be using Letícia again! Do not hesitate to book!”
“Mike and Laura cared for my pup like she was their own. My dog is a little anxious and overly excitable but Mike took that all in his stride. He sent photos throughout the day and I could quickly see she felt right at home. She had a long walk and lots of playtime with her favorite game of frisbee. The night before we had a big snow storm and Mike was excellent at keeping me up to date on the road conditions. I will be happy to go back another time.”
“Sofie is the most amazing petsitter I have ever met. Moki and Ollie were well cared for on a very stressful house-moving-day and Sofie was a kind and generous host even as she navigated their upset tummy issues. Thank you, Sofie; we will return when the boys are feeling well and settled and less stressed out. I appreciate you wholeheartedly.”
About: I've had dogs of various breeds since I was 7, and participated in competitive dog obedience and agility training in high school. I love to go on walks, and would look forward to getting to known your pet! I work from home, so I am around most if not all of the time. Our backyard is fenced and I love to take regular walks! I can care for your pet at my home or yours! Let me know your pets needs and we can find a schedule that best suits you.
“Sean was super easy to book and work with. Very responsive and easy drop off/pick up. He kept me updated throughout the day on how Beau was doing and sent pictures/videos of what a great time they were having. Would recommend for sure!”

About: Hi! As you can see, I'm not charging a lot (I set it to the minimum for Rover which is $15).... The main reason I am doing this is to get a playmate for my energetic Boston. He is very well behaved and friendly but needs dogs around to play with while I work. I am very safe with my dogs and make sure they are getting along and happy. I have a nice fenced-in area.... I only want to take care of dogs that will want to play with my dog for the day:). Overnights an option but for now, just offering day care on here. thanks! I work full-time from home, or if I goto my solo office, I would take the dogs. (Office is pet friendly and it's not far from my home) I am very good with dogs and have had them a long time. I would treat your dog like my own while they are here.
About: I’m always happy to meet a new furry friend! I have a dog that I regularly spend time with (Finley, a beagle hound mix) who loves to run around our spacious back yard. There is a wonderful pond (perfect for pups taking a dip) just a 10 minute walk down our remote road. I am well practiced in house sitting and caring for animals in a relaxed and positive manner. I work part time as a waitress so my schedule is very flexible. Usually I will be able to return in time to accommodate bathroom breaks and walks. I have a very large yard with a long leashed run. I am happy to accommodate crating if that is preferred. I spend a good amount of time with a playful medium sized beagle mix if your pup would like to have a pal.
About: I've had dogs since I was a teenager. I owned 2 siberian huskies and they have been the part that makes the best moments of my life. I'm used to high demand dogs and patience and consistency is key. I currently work my own hours with handyman services so I have a flexible schedule to make it easy for your pet care. I love spending time with animals so it's a priority. I have an open back yard with a run. I believe care should reflect the owners wants/needs be it going for alot of walks for just spending time hanging out to keep them company. Working in training to day to day is also a great way to interact with the pup to build trust and connection.

Jillian H.
“I can’t say enough good things about Jillian. She went above and beyond in the care she took of our home and pets. Everything was in tip top shape when we returned and it was clear the pets had received ample attention. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, but I also wish she was kept a secret so she could be available for us all the time!”
Jeffrey H.
“Jeff is an incredibly compassionate, caring, and responsible person. He has taken care of my dog so many times and I trust him completely to always give her extra attention, walks, love and playtime. You would be doing yourself a favor by booking with him! I can go to work peacefully knowing that my dog is well taken care of in his hands. He really has a way with animals and I know yours will love him immediately.”
