“Mary was great with the dogs and sent helpful photos in video. It was great to know the pups were in good hands during our wedding. We also appreciated her meeting them prior to the stay. Thank you Mary”


“Sammy cared for our pets several full days and nailed their routines and playtime. She texted updates and sent pics regularly. Our dog and cat are quite needy and Sammy made them feel secure and happy. We felt relieved and assured they were in great hands, and she willingly took care of minor home issues that came up. Her experience and love for pets - both dogs and cats, was evident.”


“Queenie was great! My pup is a nervous guy but he seemed so comfortable with her and was well taken care of. She sent multiple video and photo updates daily which put me at ease.”


“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five-Star Pet from Nexsy! We couldn’t be more grateful to have found Nexsy! From the moment we met her, it was clear she has a true gift with animals. Our three dogs and two cats took to her immediately — and that alone speaks volumes! Nexsy didn’t just “watch” our pets; she genuinely cared for them as if they were her own. Updates came regularly with thoughtful messages, adorable photos, and sweet little anecdotes that brought so much peace of mind while we were away. We could tell our furry family members were not just safe, but happy and thriving in her care. She played with the dogs, gave them tons of attention, and kept the cats content and calm, sticking to their routines and making sure everyone felt loved. On top of all that, Nexsy also took amazing care of our plants. It’s such a relief to come home to happy pets and thriving greenery. It’s rare to find someone so professional, trustworthy, and warm-hearted. Nexsy is everything you could hope for in a pet sitter — dependable, kind, communicative, and clearly loves what she does. We came home to relaxed, happy pets, flourishing plants, and a home that was just as we left it. We wholeheartedly recommend Nexsy to anyone looking for truly exceptional care. Cindy M”


“Katherine was wonderful! She stayed overnight to watch our two pups and took such great care of them. She was respectful of our home and communicated with us throughout her stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, our dogs loved her and were happy and well-cared for when we got home. We would absolutely book with Katherine again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”


“Haley was awesome! Communicative, punctual, and responsible. She was great with our sweet (and sometimes crazy!) girl, and she left our home in perfect condition. We had total peace of mind leaving our dog in Haley’s care, and I would highly recommend her!”


“Emma was amazing! Sent daily updates and photos. Took my girl on walks and car rides which i know my girl loved! Super kind and reassuring that my dog was in the best care(this was my first time leaving her with a stranger) but I will always look to book Emma again!”


“Julissa was amazing. She house/petsit for Thanksgiving week and our dogs Ramsey and Waldo adored her. She went above and beyond of what we asked of her, was in constant communication, and completely trustworthy. We will look forward to hiring Julissa again. Thank you so much for your hard and amazing work!”


“Donna house sat and watched Indigo (our cat 🐈⬛) for 12 days and she was absolutely wonderful, she kept us updated and sent us pictures. Indigo isn’t really a people person, but when we did the meet and greet he seemed to attach himself to her. And when Donna stayed with him it sounded like they just clicked. Donna kept the house tidied and she even shoveled the snow that we had gotten in mid April. I would highly recommend Donna to watch indigo and our house in the future. In one word she was fabulous.”


“This was the first time Mary doggy sat for me. She is punctual. Sends lots of pictures, which I appreciate cuz I miss my little guy so much when I'm gone. The house was left clean and he was well cared for. I have no complaints and we'll be using Mary again for future bookings.”


“Beyond thrilled with how loved all..ALL of our animals were. Even our dog who cowers from anyone but his family was loving in them. So so incredibly happy our animals got to meet someone, aside from us, who genuinely loves animals! Highly recommend!”


“Thank you for communicating with me throughout your stay. I’m really glad to have feedback on how my dog is doing and what additional support I need to give him. I really look forward to you sitting with him again.”


About: Hi there! My family owned dogs my entire life. My brother and I both cared for all of our childhood dogs/pets. My grandparents raised Fidelco dogs and as I would spend my summers with them, I was always exposed to these amazing little guys. As a teenager I would spend my summers home with our two family dogs. In my early college years, I dog sat for a couple of my mom's previous work friends, sometimes for a week at a time. As an adult, I raised my parent's dog from a puppy and currently own a dog of my own. I've also owned other pets such as cats, birds, and hedgehogs. I love to cuddle and play! I have lots of love to give! I'm the crazy lady you see talking to their dog while they walk them. So if you're dog is a good listener and loves cuddling, petting, and fetching, we'll be perfect mateys! I’m a children’s librarian and have a bit of a weird schedule. I work one night a week and one Saturday a month. I’m a single dog mom and have the flexibility to stay with your pet or possibly have your pet stay with me. They just have to be ok with a cranky old dachshund! I can walk your dog before work (8 am) or after work (5 pm) or any time on weekends. I’m very careful with peoples pets. The decisions I make for my own dog isn’t what I will make for someone else’s. Your pet is your precious baby and I will treat them as such. I follow the rules and guidelines set out by the owner and if I’m giving the green light to, your pet will be SPOILED. Car rides, couch snuggles, and outdoor adventures!

“Kaitlynn was amazing! My dogs have special needs and their care instructions are very specific. She kept their routine and did perfect! She gave my dogs much love and attention. She is the only sitter I would trust with my dogs. After I got back home, I asked one of my dogs (she uses button communication) if Kaitlynn was nice and she said yes! 🐾”


“Annina was amazing! She took such great care of Emma—attentive, responsible, and clearly a true animal lover. We got regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Emma came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Highly recommend Annina to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“My boyfriend and I hired Kim to dog sit for us when we were gone for 8 days for vacation. We were very nervous about hiring someone to watch our dog and stay at our house because we have never done this before. The one other time we needed a dog sitter we used a friend of ours who was unable to do it this time. We met Kim at Fountain Park in WIlbraham with Rogue so she could meet him and we could see how they interacted. My boyfriend was more hesitant about hiring a stranger than I was but after meeting Kim, (and talking to a reference she provided for us) we decided to hire her. She came to our house and paid close attention to all the little details I shared with her about Rogue. While we were gone we had limited access for communication, but she was great about making sure if we asked how they were to send photos, videos, and an update. We came home to our house in the same condition as we left it. I was also impressed that I let her know that we had landed at the airport and would be home in the next hour and a half, and she left the key in a place where just in case something kept us from getting home that evening she could go back and take care of Rogue for another day if needed. She really thought of everything. Rogue looked like he had a great time with her. We will definitely hire her again if we need a dog sitter again.”


About: I have a lot of animals myself and have grown up surrounded by them. I love taking care of them and will treat each as my own. I work a flex schedule so I’m available during the day and evenings . I can make myself available during most parts of the day to care for your pets. I can’t have more pets in my home, but I’m more than happy to spend time with animals in their home or where they feel most safe.

Alexandra R.
“Alexandra grew up with dogs always in the home - anything from a Rottweiler to a Chihuahua. This also included being involved as part of a foster family to German Shepherd puppies that were going to be used as guide dogs for the blind. She took responsibility at a young age to take care of dogs (feeding, bathing, vet visits, etc.) and it has continued into her adult life with adopting her own dog from a shelter. She loves her dog and any other dogs she may meet in her daily life...she doesn't mind dog kisses either!!”

Ashley L.Star Sitter
“Ashley is a phenomenal pet-sitter. She takes wonderful care of my two cats, 5 and 3 years-old, both of whom have very distinct and somewhat fussy personalities. They also both have different dietary restrictions of which she’s always been very cognizant. My youngest cat has some temperament issues, so she does have to administer medication on the nights she’s watching him, and my older cat requires frequent teeth brushing to keep her hereditary gum disease at bay, which Ashley is also able to handle. Would definitely recommend!”
