“Avery is my go to dog sitter for my pet. She is reliable and super responsive. Last night I had an unexpected delay in getting home and Avery dropped everything that she was doing to come over and help my pup. It was so last minute and late, and she still provided excellent care. Thank you Avery!”


About: Hello! Thank you for clicking on my page today. My name is Valerie and I would love to look after your furry family member. For the last 16 years I've had a dog in my family. Taking care of her showed me how much I love animals and I'd love to extend this love to lots of different animals. I consider myself to be professional, outgoing, and flexible. I pride myself on providing quality service for my clients and their furry friends and I feel devoted to connecting with people just as much as their pets. Dog safety is my number one focus at all times. Keeping your dog happy, healthy, and safe is considered a bare minimum requirement for me. I also feel it's important to acknowledge that every dog, just like every person, is different and that treating each new dog with it's own individual form of respect and care is very important. No two dogs are the same and I look forward to rising to the occasion to care for your dog's individual needs. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out! I'm currently working on Rover being my full-time gig so I have more than enough time for you and your furry family member. Please reach out and I will make any accommodations necessary. Like every person, animals share unique personalities, experiences, and histories. I start by listening and taking in all the information from you the owner. Once I understand, to a T, what you require I then turn my attention to our furry friend. I do my best to be intuitive and listen to their body language and mannerisms to give them the right care they need. Is your dog giving me a whale eye or a play sneeze? Does you cat have scared airplane ears or a nice perky and curious tail? All of these pieces of body language ensure that your furry friend and I can get along swimmingly.

“This was the first time we used Kayla for our 2 cats. She was fantastic. We came home to happy cats and a clean box, and prep area. She is kind, caring, diligent, and followed all our instructions which included weighing food and adding medication. Kayla is a good communicator and sends photos. One of my cats tends to be skittish and stressed but felt very comfortable and bonded quickly with Kayla. We will definitely use her again.”


About: I have had dogs since I was 8! I am experience with rescues and strays and the ones that need just a little extra love! I also have proffesional dog walking and sitting experience! I’m currently working part time and taking an online class over the summer so I have tons of time to watch after your furry family members whenever need be! I have dogs myself so I prefer to not take care of your dogs in my home! I prefer to go to clients home or dog walking etc!

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life and love spending time with them. I’ve cared for my own pets for years, including raising and training my current dog, who is now three years old. I’m experienced with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and basic training, and I always treat animals with love and respect. While most of my experience is personal, I bring a reliable and caring approach to every pet as if they were my own! I work from home four days a week, and I am usually local on weekends, so my schedule is flexible. I’m home throughout the day to provide walks, playtime, and drop-ins. My schedule makes it easy to pop by during mornings, lunch breaks, or evenings to check in, feed, or give some love and attention as needed. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I have a labrador retriever who gets along with other animals and a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play. I keep a close eye on all pets, maintain their usual routines, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved.

“Kiara was amazing. Our dog (Millie) was extremely happy. She went on car rides, and even had doggie play dates. Kiara is very responsive and kept us updated the whole time. We will absolutely use Kiara again.”


About: I grew up with several animals always in our house from dogs, cats, fish and rats. I enjoy training dogs or puppies and going on long walks. I am currently work from home full time and have a lot of availability! We wake up early and love to go on long walks. I live in an apartment in Boston with my fiancé and we don’t currently have any fur babies. I WFH full time so I am very available.

“Lea did a superb job with Sugar & Spice, giving them their food, medication, and water, and making sure they were provided with clean kitty litter. When she had a question she called me, as I had asked her to do. We enjoyed receiving photos of our cats! Having Lea care for your pets will give you peace of mind.”


About: Hey! I’m a military that loves dogs and do this as a hobby ❤️ Got some experience with anxious and reactive dogs. I can also help training new puppies for their daily routine. I’m trying to connect with neighbors that need a hand with their furry family members. If you are too busy, I’ll probably be around to help. I am very respectful of your home and pets, I can not imagine a different way other than treating them as they were mine 🩷

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a child for family members and neighbors. I have always had at least one dog in our family ever since. I have experience with large and small dogs. Young and old. I have experience giving medications and IV fluids to dogs as well. I am currently working remotely so my schedule can be pretty flexible monday through friday. I am available as well in evening and weekends for walking and pet sitting The pets in my home have plenty of space to roam a fenced in yard. I will follow all directions given by the owner in their own home

About: I have been a dog owner for ten years. I help care for my mother’s dog who has many health conditions, so I’m great with giving medications and following special diets. I have 3 year old dog who is very friendly and energetic. If your dog is good with other dogs he’s great for play dates I work from home Mondays and Fridays so I’m great if you need care for a long weekend. Tuesday -Thursday I’m available for evenings walks, potty breaks and feeding. I have a fenced in yard and separate fenced in pool area if you dog enjoys swimming. I have one dog in my home who is extremely friendly to keep your dog company. I can crate your dog if needed at night. Id staying at your home I will keep your home clean and care for it like my own. I will stay over night, feed your pet and spend a good portion of the day with them.

About: I have been fostering rescue dogs on and off for years. I have 2 older dogs of my own. They like other dogs but lately have been getting nervous with high energy dogs. I am also a volunteer with Missing dogs Massachusetts. Dogs in my care are loved and safe. If a dog is in my home they are treated as my own. I have a 6 year old that is obsessed with all dogs. We are just a dog loving family. I am a photographer so I am home most days and make my own schedule. My son is in school Monday Tuesday Wednesday. My husband is an early riser for pups who are as well. We have a fully fenced yard and a doggie ramp for those with short legs that can’t do stairs, these things make going out easy and frequent. Dogs are like kids to us, they need constant love and attention. I always make sure dogs are safe in my care. Because I’m a volunteer with Missing Dogs I am extra careful.

“Heather is amazing! She is incredibly reliable, professional and so patient. Our very energetic dog enjoyed two long walks with her, and we look forward to welcoming her back soon.”


About: I recently lost my beautiful dog, Chowder! A fun loving Wheaton that I established a forever bond with. Through car rides, our love of the water, and the outdoors over 12 years, we took care of one another. Chowder taught me patience, understanding, which allows me in various situations to care for a dog. Along with my maturity, and this “one on one”experience with my dog, I feel I am able to care for dogs in a loving, honest way and provide a safe environment for them. I’m working part time so I’m able to do drop ins and possibly board on weekends. I’d like to get into a Roy tune with the same dogs. If senior, trained dogs are available, I’d be a good match. I will be very watchful of the dogs inside the home and would lease dogs for outside time to assure to not roam free from me.

About: What sets me apart is my combination of professional reliability, medical experience, and genuine love for all pets. I’m skilled with senior care, medication administration (including insulin and eye drops), and providing long, structured walks for energetic dogs. I work remotely, allowing me to give pets full-time attention, and I’m always praised for leaving homes spotless. I adapt to each family's care philosophy, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely and structure my schedule around the pets’ needs. I’m able to provide consistent walks, feedings, medication if needed, and lots of playtime and affection throughout the day. Since I'm home most of the time, pets get plenty of attention and companionship, keeping their routines as normal and comforting as possible. My flexibility means I can adjust easily to each pet’s specific habits, energy levels, and care plans. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize keeping their routines and environment as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow the family's care instructions closely — whether that’s walking times, feeding schedules, administering medications, or favorite play activities. I keep the home clean and organized, bring my own supplies when needed, and make sure everything is left even better than I found it. Most importantly, I provide plenty of companionship, exercise, and affection to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their family is away.
