About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover who grew up begging for a dog and taking any chance I could to babysit and care for friends’ and neighbors’ pups. As soon as I graduated college, I welcomed my first dog—a golden retriever—into my life and made his care a top priority while balancing work and everyday life. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all kinds: high-energy, mischievous troublemakers, dogs with medical needs, seniors, and everything in between. I’m comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I truly enjoy getting to know what makes each dog unique. After meeting my husband, we added a rescue to our household, and our home quickly became known as “the dog house.” I regularly help care for and babysit dogs for family and friends, and I treat every dog as if they were my own—with patience, attention, and lots of love. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve while you’re away. I am a mom of two young children and currently at home with them and our rescue dog. I said goodbye to my senior golden last year and have missed having that extra companion. I have plenty of space both indoors and outdoors, and lots of time to devote to your dog. I have a dog-safe, child-proof home. My yard is partially fenced, and I also have an electric fence available for dogs trained to use one (my dog does not use it). My house is located in a quiet, wonderful neighborhood with sidewalks and low-traffic roads—perfect for safe, enjoyable walks.

“Gracie had a great day with Matthew & Jennifer! They took her on many walks and she got along great with their dog. Matthew and Jennifer also sent a lot of photos throughout the day. Thank you for taking such great care of Gracie girl!”

About: Hi! My name is Holly, and I recently graduated from college in May. I’ve cared for dogs of family, friends, and neighbors for years, walking, feeding, and staying overnight. I treat every pup like my own, with love, attention, and reliable care. I have experience with both cat and dog sitting, and have personally owned both, as well as a rabbit! I currently work for a marketing services agency fully-remote. I am available for overnights, and will be able to do walks in the morning, night, and during the afternoon between calls. I currently work remote at home, so I am able to do overnights and provide walks in the morning, afternoon, and at night for pups. I treat all dogs like they are my own corgi. I have loved animals my whole life and have owned my dog Finn, two cats, and a rabbit, all of which I have taken exceptional care of.

“Murphy spent two days with Roxanne for doggy day care when we needed to be at work. She played with him in her nice backyard, and kept him engaged while also helping him relax in a new place. On his second time seeing her, he whined at her door and excitedly ran to see her. It’s clear she enjoys his company, and he also enjoys spending time with her. We will definitely consider booking her for any future needs.”

“Shannon, thank you so much for your love and care for Archie today!! The pictures were amazing. He’s going to be tired after all the walks and play, and we are so thankful for that!”

“Our little Rosey had an absolute blast with Zach! She was completely tuckered out when we pick her up. Zach sent several photos to keep us updated on her visit. He played with Rosey inside/outside and taking a walk by the water. What a great day Rosey had. We will definitely be using Zach again”

About: I have been fostering rescue dogs on and off for years. I have 1 older dog of my own. Her likes other dogs but lately he has 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.

“We have been leaving our dog Boo with Kristen while we go to work and we have been loving it!! He always has a great day and I love getting pictures of him throughout the day. They take such good care of him and I never have to worry. I would highly recommend anyone leave their dog with Kristen and Tim, so glad we found them!”

About: I am a responsible, loving, caring, and attentive pet sitter with a genuine love for animals. I have experience caring for pets of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, including dogs and cats. I’ve been a pet owner since I was 6 years old. My services include feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic medications if needed, and providing companion. You can trust me to be reliable, patient, and fully committed to giving your pet the best care possible. I’m currently working from home, going to the office just once per week. I have plenty of free slot times where I usually use to walk my dog and play with my cat. I live in a big house with plenty of space for dogs and cats, I have a free room adapted specifically for pets. I have a lot of green areas around my house where dogs can run and play freely.

About: Hi! I’m Ben, a genuine dog lover that goes above and beyond for all pets under my care. I’ve been called a “dog whisperer” by more than a few people because I naturally connect with dogs on a deep level, especially those who may be hesitant, skittish, or shy around others. Time and time again, those dogs seem to gravitate toward me, and earning their trust is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do. I value patience and consistency for these adorable, loving creatures and truly see them as members of the family, not just pets. I take my responsibility seriously and always research the ins and outs of every breed before pet sitting so I can provide thoughtful, customized care tailored to each dog’s specific needs and personality. I love meeting dogs at their energy level, whether that means lots of playtime, long walks, games, and exercise, or ensuring structured rest and calm downtime when that’s what they need most. I’m happy to learn about your training goals and reinforce behavior using positive reinforcement strategies so your dog feels supported, safe, and understood. I’ve worked with all types of dogs and a wide range of challenges, including food aggression, excessive barking, and very cautious or shy temperaments. I truly love all dogs and meet them where they are, with patience, empathy, and consistency. I also welcome any and all instructions you’d like to share. No list is too long when it comes to your valued family member, and I take pride in following routines closely so your dog feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! Pet care is my full-time focus, allowing me to offer exceptional flexibility in scheduling that accommodates a variety of schedules and allows me the availability to best support you and your pet’s needs. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, my top priority is ensuring comfort, consistency, and a stress-free experience. If your pet stays in my home, they’ll enjoy a fenced-in yard and plenty of fresh air, plus we live just blocks from the beach, perfect for dogs who love seaside walks and playtime. We also have a very friendly French bulldog who loves other dogs and provides great companionship, especially for shy or anxious pups who benefit from having a buddy. I’m always mindful that some dogs may feel out of their comfort zone at first, and I take great care to help them settle in gently. Many dogs who have stayed with us have quickly warmed up to our cozy home and routine. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’m dedicated to keeping them on their normal routine to provide familiarity and reduce stress. I treat every home with the utmost respect, maintaining cleanliness, organization, and care as if it were my own. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, I carefully review and follow all instructions to ensure consistency, comfort, and safety while you’re away. I also believe strongly in keeping you connected, so I send frequent photos and videos because I know how much it means to see your pet happy when you’re apart, even if it’s just for a few hours.

About: Genuine love and a deep connection with dogs is what sets me apart as a dog sitter. With over 24 years of experience raising and caring for dogs, I treat every dog like they are my own child. I provide a loving, caring, and safe environment where your dog will feel comfortable and adored. You can trust that your pet will receive the highest level of attention and care in my hands. I work remotely and have plenty of time to care for your special dog! I require minimal notification and am very flexible. Just communicate and we can figure something out! Your dog will enjoy a spacious and safe environment on our large property, where they’ll have plenty of room to explore. Though we don’t have a fence, I ensure they’re always on a leash/lead or supervised during outdoor time. Regular walks, playtime, and socializing with our friendly Golden Retriever will make your dog feel right at home and part of our family.

“Theresa took care of my dogs for several days while I was on vacation earlier this year. We had such a great experience and brought our pups back to her again for daycare! Theresa sent photos and videos of our fur babies. She also took them out on a long walk. My dogs have so much fun when they’re with her. Thank you Theresa!”
