“WONDERFUL experience with Michele! Our dog was so comfortable with Michele. She was incredibly thorough in ensuring she had all the information needed to make our dog feel at home. I've never seen our dog this happy with another care giver. Highly recommend!”
“Andrea and Bob were fabulous! It is very clear they love dogs and are caring people. Clover felt right at home with them and certainly enjoyed her time as was evident by the wonderful pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Chelsea did a great job watching our puppy all week while on vacation. She sent pictures and updates daily and put us at ease. She was able to take our dog on a very short notice and on the final day was able to bring her to us. When I got our dog back I even noticed that she is now better potty trained and able to walk on the leash which is a huge plus for us. If you are considering having your dog taken care of with no worries, I highly recommend giving Chelsea high consideration.”
“Karen was wonderful. She took great care of Nova and sent us updates and photos through out the day. We will definitely be using her services again and would highly recommend her.”
“Cindi was amazing and our Fenway loved her time with Cindi and her husband. I 100% recommend Cindi to any dog owner that needs a living home away from home on the Cape. She communicated with us daily, giving us updates on Fenway’s day. Cindi is the best!”
“Caitlin took our puppy in considering we were in a difficult bind and needed someone to board our dog for a few days last minute. She was very gracious and understanding of our pup’s needs. He was on a round of antibiotics which she took care of also. We will definitely keep her in mind for the future!”
“Caitlin was super reliable and took great care of my dog while I was away. I appreciated all of the photo updates and could tell my dog was getting lots of love from her family and pets. I will be booking again!”
“Our Yellow lab Trigger had a great stay with Julie. He was very comfortable in her house/ yard. We appreciate how relaxed we were with Trigger staying at her house. Thanks Julie!!! Trigger and Julie and Al S.”
“Alyne was fantastic. We live on the island so accommodating our travel can be tricky but she was great with our schedule. She met us at the ferry to pick up our dog. While we were gone she texted us pictures of our dog playing in the yard with other dogs. We knew our dog was having a ball. Then our return travel got all messed up and she was super flexible with keeping our dog for an extra night. Would definitely recommend Alyne!”
“Madaket welcomed our dog (cavapoo) in and everything went extremely smoothly. She kept him as her own and we had a happy dog waiting for us after at the end of a week's vacation. Communication was very easy and we enjoyed some pics occasionally. No negative comments, I recommend Madaket for taking care of your dog!”
“Thank you, Stephen. Maisy loved her time with you. The walks and pets and overall love were much appreciated. Maisy is usually anxious to leave other sitters when we pick her up. However when we came to pick her up from your house, she kept running back and forth between the two of us. That is a sure sign that she had a wonderful stay.”
“Marc and his family were outstanding! We couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving our pup with him - he checked in lots and it was obvious our Archie was so happy in his care! We would confidently recommend Marc to anyone looking for someone to take care of their fur baby.”
About: I have extensive experience working with dogs of all sizes. Growing up, my family had large dogs (90+ pounds) for almost all of my life. I have watched and pet-sat for dogs of all sizes in the past few years for neighbors and friends. I’ve recently moved back to the Massachusetts area after a travel-heavy job for the past few years, so no fur babies of my own yet! I look forward to re-exploring some of the wonderful walking trails the Cape offers with your furry friends! I’m currently working as a server part-time, so have plenty of time to play with, walk, and feed your dogs/cats. I am available for boarding or pet-sitting in your home most weeks, and for walks nearly every evening, plus morning and afternoon shifts every Tuesday and Wednesday. I have a large backyard and walking trails within a 10-minute walk from my house, perfect for leashed adventures! I do not have any pets in the house full-time, but may have my parent’s well-trained and friendly rescue in the house on occasional weekends.
“Zuzana was the perfect pet sitter for our miniature poodle, Charly. She communicated quickly and from the very beginning provided a welcoming environment for Charly. Thanks to the photos and videos she sent, we were able to rest assured Charly was in good hands. We hope Zuzana will be available the next time we look for a sitter. Thanks!”
“Christian was absolutely fantastic taking care of Aspen! We were away in France and had no worries about our pet because we were constantly updated with messages, photos, and check ins about Aspen's status. This is very reassuring as an owner. I have bookmarked Christian's name on Rover for our next vacation!”
“I’m so happy we found Karen, she takes such amazing care of our Goldie and sends us lots of updates. It definitely calms our anxiety (which is high!!) when we have to leave her! It’s also such a relief that Goldie has Juni to hang out with, such a sweet girl.”
“Marcia did an excellent job taking care of Tuka! I could tell he was very comfortable with her and her family both when I left him and picked him up. Loved all the pictures she sent! We will definitely use her again!”
“Kari was wonderful with Hazel. I could tell Hazel adjusted well and enjoyed her time with Kari and her family by the photos and updates Kari provided along the way. I would leave Hazel with Kari again knowing that she would be well cared for.”
“Sally was fantastic!! We are incredibly pleased by her service. She communicated well and sent lots of pictures. Sally was flexible to adjusting the pickup to be one hour earlier which was very kind. She is personable, friendly, communicative, and compassionate. Even though it was a rainy weekend she still made sure our puppy had outdoor time and even took her for a beach walk. Thank you for everything Sally!”

I’ve left my dog overnight with Jackie on two occasions and will definitely call on her in future. She is professional, organized, communicative, pleasant, and clearly loves taking care of pets! My dog has a health condition that requires twice daily medication and I feel totally at ease leaving her in such capable hands. Highly recommend!
