“Rachel is AMAZING! Such a kind, responsible young lady who has a genuine love for all fur babies and four legged creatures!

About: I’ve had a dog in my life for as long as I can remember, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, because I know they’re not just animals—they’re family. What sets me apart is the care and attention I give to each pet as if they were my own. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies who need structure and training to senior dogs who require patience, comfort, and sometimes medication. I’m very in tune with animal behavior and always aim to make pets feel safe, loved, and at ease. Whether your dog loves belly rubs, long walks, or just a calm companion, I adapt to their needs to ensure they’re happy and well cared for. I work three days a week as a nursing assistant at South Shore Hospital, and on my days off, I love spending my extra time caring for animals. Pet care has always been a natural part of my life since I’ve grown up with dogs, and I enjoy staying active and being around animals whenever I can. On the days I’m not at the hospital, I’m fully available for walks, drop-ins, or boarding—whatever your pet needs. I’m responsible, attentive, and used to managing schedules, so I make sure every pet gets the care and consistency they deserve. This is something I genuinely enjoy doing, and I’m excited to spend my free time helping pets feel happy, safe, and loved. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely so your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own space. I stick to their usual routine—feeding, walking, playtime, and anything else they need—so things feel familiar and stress-free for them. If I’m watching pets in my own home, I create a calm and cozy environment. I keep things clean and make sure they have space to relax, play, and feel at home. I only take in a small number of pets at a time so I can give each one plenty of attention and care. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, I treat them like they’re my own—with love, patience, and lots of belly rubs.

“I had an excellent experience with this dog sitter! She was not only friendly and prompt but also extremely attentive to my dog's needs. I felt confident leaving my furry friend in their care knowing they would receive great attention and care. I highly recommend Jacqueline to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable caretaker for their pet.”


About: Pets have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I have my own dog, Charlie, and cat, Watson, and I’ve cared for friends’ pets over the years—dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. From playful puppies to sweet senior pets, I bring a calm, caring presence and quickly earn their trust. Every pet is unique, and I always tailor my care to meet their individual needs. I work from home part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to caring for pets, giving them attention, and sticking to their routines. At my home, pets enjoy plenty of space and attention! I have a large backyard for safe outdoor time, plus walking paths right next to the house for daily strolls. My 4-year-old King Charles Spaniel is the sweetest and always happy to have a furry friend around. Our 7-year-old cat mostly minds his own business—unless it’s mealtime, of course! I also have two kids, ages 11 and 5, who are gentle, respectful, and love spending time with animals. It’s a calm, loving environment where your pet will feel right at home.

“Brendan openly communicated before we booked and helped through the process. Our situated was unique as we stayed on a military reservation in our camper. He was able to follow step by step instructions to get to our location and had no issues. He sent pics of our pup every time and communicated timelines. Thank you Brendan!”

Sophia P.
“I can confidently say that Sophia would make an amazing pet sitter because she has been around dogs her entire life and has always had a natural bond with animals. From a young age, she’s shown a strong sense of responsibility when it comes to caring for pets—whether it’s feeding them on time, making sure they get their walks, or just giving them the love and attention,they need. She’s incredibly patient, gentle, and observant, which makes animals feel calm and comfortable around her. I’ve watched her care for both young, energetic puppies and older dogs who needed extra care and support. No matter the situation, she always steps up and handles it with maturity and compassion. She’s also very trustworthy and detail-oriented, so I know any pet parent would feel at ease leaving their dog in her care. It’s clear that animals bring her a lot of joy, and she takes the responsibility of caring for them seriously. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, who’s dependable, experienced, and genuinely loves animals, then Sophia is the perfect choice.”

Janice B.
“Janice saved a very important trip for me five years ago, and she has kept my two small dogs several times since then. I had planned a trip to France to visit with new in-laws and become better acquainted. I hired a dog sitter and thought all details were in place, when, two days before I was due to leave, the new pet sitter informed me that she could not stay with my dogs, but would look in on them every day. I was stunned. This was not the arrangement we’d made and I didn’t know what to do. Someone mentioned that Janice was reliable and honest, and she loved dogs. Of course I called her immediately. She came over to meet my dogs the next days, and within half an hour I had hired her. She was amazing. The dogs were very well cared for while I was gone. They were happy and healthy, clean and energetic. They’d obviously had a vacation too. After that trip Janice has been our go to sitter. The dogs are deliriously happy when they see her, and that makes my leaving a lot easier. Call her immediately. You can rest assured that your dog will be loved and cared for, and will have great fun while you’re away.”


Julia E.

“Julia was fantastic!”


Alyssa S.

I complete trust my pups in her care.”
