Dog Sitting Jefferson

About: We’ve always had pets at our house and cousins’ houses growing up, and as you’ve probably seen in my pictures, I always love being around animals! I’m starting a new position in a few months, and since I love animals, I thought that pet-sitting would be the perfect thing to do in the meantime! It is definitely important to make sure that the pets are taken outside often to go to the bathroom and move around with fresh air. It’s also important to read the body language of the pet- some pets need more exercise than others.

About: Being a dog owner for 15 years, I know how hard it is to find good care for your pet when you are away. I am happy to fill that void. I'm available to watch your dogs or cats in your home for one day/night or an extended period of time. I am dependable and clean. I will treat your pet as if they were my own. Walking, playing, feeding, giving oral medications. I can also transport your dog(s) to a dog park if there is one near your home.

About: I am a reliable dog sitter for friends and family. I owned 2 of my own dogs in the past, a boxer and cocker spaniel mix. I have a pretty flexible/varied schedule. Please send me a message and we can definitely work something out to fit the needs of your pet! Whichever directions or specifications you have for your pet I will always do my best to follow them! I do not offer home services at the moment.

“Gabriela was awesome! She was very thorough and took great care of our cats! I will gladly book her again when we need someone to watch them!”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats and I love animals in general. I am patient, experienced, caring and gentle, Rocky Kanaka is someone I look up to. My top priority is making sure your baby feels safe and cared for as though I am family too. I would love to get to know your baby I am available on weekends primarily. I can be available for visits and care from 12-2 Monday thru Friday provided there's no scheduling conflicts. I can take extra time or increase my availability during the week with advanced notice. I carefully follow any instructions left for me, and having had experience caring for my boy, I know keeping your baby safe is the most important part of care that I provide. I am careful to keep an eye on any animal I care for to make sure they don't have the opportunity to run outside off leash

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, and goats! I love animals and I am a biology-pre vet major at the University of New England!

I have a nice big yard for yours pets to enjoy and I have lived with dogs my whole life so my house is definitely fit for a dog!

About: I’ve owned pets since my daughter was young and brought her first kitten home. I’ve been helping her to walk dogs for a couple years now. I’m retired so my schedule is fairly open. It gets me walking and outside, two things I enjoy. It helps my health and makes me feel good. Happy to walk your dog! Cannot have pets stay at my house as I have a kitty cat of my own. His name is Toby and he’s a real pain in the butt! 😂

About: I have cared for dogs and cats for much of my life, and am experienced with dogs less than 10lbs, all the way up to 100+lbs! I am familiar with caring for animals with disabilities and medical needs, as well as reactive dogs and those with behavioral issues. As long as I know how best to care for an animal, I am more than happy to meet whatever needs they have to ensure a safe and happy experience. I am always happy to come by to keep your pet company, indoors and out! I am available at varied times of day, so I am happy to provide care whenever you need! I ensure that I know the expectations for a pet beforehand, so that I can care for them how their owner wants. I am happy to cuddle your dog all night, or keep them company while in their crate!

“We were very happy with Kayla’s service of our two cats while we were away for four days in San Diego. She arrived on the agreed upon times on the dot, she was very communicative with us throughout the duration of our trip—including sending pictures which put us at ease—and she was extremely flexible and accommodating to one of our cats who tends hide from unknown people who come into the house. Kayla is extremely warm and cheerful. We hope to work with her again to check in on our two boys. Kayla made it possible for us to relax and enjoy our trip while we were away.”

“This was the 2nd time Virginia watched Bailey. This time we were out of the country and I felt comfortable leaving my pet in good hands and the videos were appreciated by myself and my grandkids. I will definitely use Virginia again!”

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 25 years and truly believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from tiny Chihuahuas to large breeds, as well as puppies, energetic adults, and senior dogs who require extra patience, medication, or special care. I'm naturally calm, dependable, and attentive to each pet's individual personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship, I adapt my care to what makes them happiest. My goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable while you're away. As someone who works for myself, I have the flexibility to provide reliable daytime care and give each visit my full attention. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands. I treat every pet as if they were one of my own. I work for myself, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable, personalized care for your pets. I'm available Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, medication, and companionship. I always do my best to be punctual, reliable, and accommodate your pet's routine. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I believe pets feel most secure when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and any special needs. I'll care for your home with the same respect I would my own, provide regular updates with photos, and treat every pet like a member of my own family.

“Ann Marie was AMAZING with our 1 year pitty mix named Tali. She went above and beyond with updates, pictures, and entertainment for our pup. I could tell Tali looked forward to Ann Marie's visits and we will absolutely be booking her again for drop by visits.”

“Lila is amazing with my pup - it was too hot for a walk so she made sure my dog had some one-on-one time, a bathroom break, and lots of attention!”

About: I have taken care of dogs in the past and grew up in a family that loves dogs. I currently have a boxer who loves to play I am on summer vacation and I have a lot of down time so I will be able to spend a lot of time with the puppies! I have a dog of my own who loves to play outdoors and play with his toys. I will ensure the safety of your dog by keeping a close eye on them!

“Erinn was amazing. She was always helpful as my cat was recovering from spinal surgery and required more than just feeding. Her experience as a vet tech was invaluable. She never missed a beat and my cats both love her. I cannot recommend her enough !!!”

“Always does a great job!”

About: I like to watch it’s me or the dog every night. And my cat from hell. I’m interested in getting my dog training certificate in the nearest future. My cat brings me such joy. He is a 16 year old black cat and such a good boy! He can even go on walks with us. I work for the Worcester Public schools and have all school vacations off. I am able to come and do house calls in the evening time (4-late night) or house sit overnight on weekdays or weekends. Also during school vacations including the summer. We have an indoor house cat. He’s declawed and very friendly. We also have a fenced in area in the backyard with very high fences. There is possibility that borders could be segregated from the cat if necessary. We are in a good neighborhood for walking and very near some good trails.
