“Melinda has been such a wonderful help and is so incredibly good with our pup! She’s dependable, kind and responsible - we are moving, but will miss her greatly!”


About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is the lifelong experience and genuine love I have for animals. I grew up in a home full of dogs and have always been surrounded by pets, learning early on how to care for them with patience and attention. Today, I have a dog and a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members. I treat every pet like my own, with kindness, consistency, and a lot of love. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in visit, or just some extra playtime, I ensure your pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. As a teacher on summer break, I have a very open and flexible schedule, which means I’m available throughout the day to give your pets the attention and care they need. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday playtime, or an afternoon check-in, I’m able to provide consistent, dependable care. My background in teaching also means I’m organized, responsible, and great at following routines—qualities that translate well into attentive, loving pet care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, give walks or playtime, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I’m respectful of your home and any instructions you leave, whether it’s about medications, crate time, or favorite toys. If I were to offer care in my home, pets would have a calm, pet-friendly space and lots of companionship throughout the day. No matter the setting, I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel happy, secure, and loved while you're away.

“Samantha has been walking our two dogs mid-day while we are at work. She communicates well + clearly takes great care of our dogs. It’s made a transition from remote work back to office life much easier for all of us! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable dog care.”

“Abby and Ian are great as always! I have trouble with buzzing them in sometimes, but they’re always willing to wait. I feel great knowing my pup Kit is getting the attention he deserves while I’m away, and I think he loves seeing them as much as me!”

About: I had experience taking care of dogs & cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments.

We have a crate, play-pen and lots of toys/activities for whatever your pet needs!

About: I have a lot of background caring with pets because my family has always had various kinds of pets. Also, my family had a pet care facility that has given me experience in pet care. I’ve dealt with many puppies and young animals in my life, so if you have young pets, I got you! I can’t count how many times I have had to bathe and groom my own or other people’s pets. I would love to care for your pet(s)!!! I work remotely part-time, so I have a lot of time to care for your pet & would love to do so! I also have a dog and a friend’s that I care for already that I have to bathe and groom myself. I also have watched animals for various families and friends, so pet care has been and is a part of my life. I have one friendly dog who LOVES making new furry friends. My dog has been around all kinds of animals & loves them all. I also have a super flexible schedule, so if your pet likes walks, parks, etc., I can fit my schedule to your pet’s needs. I also have a passion for keeping dogs healthy and happy, so I really look out for them & make sure they are getting the care they need, I would say I have a talent for it.

About: Worked at Cherokee Kennels, in Fitchburg for 3 years, learned many new things about many different breeds of dogs. Love long walks, and giving the best love to pets!

I am open to sticking to your pets daily schedule as best as I can. Giving them the best love and care they deserve to have.
