Dog Sitting Lexington

“Heidi was bery warm and caring to Harpo. Jun was a great addition to the service as they plaed well. Harpo even saw Juni in the park a few days later and it was clear they became fast friends - played so well together! Heidi as definintley a great fit for my puppy still learning maturity out and about. Juni was a very good influence. I woul recommend her and will be using her again!”

About: I’m reliable, flexible and a good communicator, who loves to spend time with your fur babies, whether it’s cuddles, play or a long walk in the woods. I’m a teacher who has lots of flexibility this summer! I have my own strong and active 45 pound rescue, Sox, and have walked many neighbors’ dogs and helped my kids with their own dog walking businesses. I’d love to meet your pup! I’m a teacher, currently off for summer vacation, so I have a lot of flexibility June, July and August. I may often be available last minute, as well. I have a car, and am comfortable entering and exiting your home. (My own dog greets people with a whole lot of barking, so I’m used to that!)

“Very good with the cat!”

About: I’ve had cats since I was 8 years old. With the 16 years of experience with cats, I believe every fur baby needs a home away from home. Like with every pet parent, I strive for the best with my cat. If you choose me to watch your fur baby, I will provide the best and safest environment for them. Do they need a room to themselves? You got it. Has explosive diarrhea? I have cleaning supplies. Medical issues? Another way to keep me on my toes. I hope you consider me as a prospective aunt to your kitter cat or doggo and can’t wait to fill up my camera role with adorable pictures. I look forward to hearing from you 💕 I am a grad student at Brandeis University. My classes are usually over by 2 pm, so after then I’m usually at my apartment caring for my cat and completing schoolwork. So needless to say, I have a lot of flexibility within my schedule for your pets individual needs. If I am doing home visits, I would like to visit the clients home a day or two prior to the arranged visit(s) to understand the animals needs and to see if we would be a good fit. I believe it is important to establish an understanding with the animal in question before I frequent the premises so there isn’t any unnecessary stress for your pet. In regards to boarding, I have a medium sized apartment that would be good for any cat or small-medium dog. There are multiple grassy areas for bathroom breaks and walks around the premises. You will have to provide me with your animals usual schedule (times for bathroom breaks, when and how much time are committed to walks, feeding times, etc.) so I can build my set around them and their needs

About: Hello - Thank you for looking at my profile, and for thinking of me as your pet's caregiver. I am currently, an at home sitter, but willing to open my home to your pet. I am a dog owner too, and know that good help is hard to come by. I am loving, and fun and love to go on long walks on the beach with my puppy or hiking trails. Your pet is a part of your family, and I intend to treat your pet like my very own! I live in an apartment, but it is spacious and close to many parks and beaches.

“Olya was amazing with Tina and sent plenty of pictures. This was a last minute emergency and she was available and quick to respond and accept the booking. Recommended 110%!”

“Isabel was great!! Checked in on our kitty, sent cute pics, and left our place just as she found it.”

About: I am a freelance artist by trade, I'm looking to earn some supplementary by putting to good use my love of animals and experience as a lifetime pet owner. I have been the primary caretaker for animals basically my whole life, growing up alongside furry siblings as long as I can reliably remember, including several dogs with behavioral issues such as separation anxiety and jealousy problems. My mother trained as a vet tech and taught me a lot, and is always happy to help even now if I need an extra hand or some expert advice. I have trained dogs, including potty training and dissuading problem behaviors (excessive barking, begging for food, etc.) I have experience caring for dogs in individual, group, and playgroup settings and love all animals. I cannot drive but I can engage in light to moderate dog walking just fine! I use public transport and ridesharing to get around. If you have any further questions about what might be within my wheelhouse feel more than free to ask! As a freelance artist, my schedule for work is fairly flexible and I can plan around pet care time and stays away from home with a lot of freedom, making it possible for me to keep my schedule fluid and make the animal in my care the priority of my routine. I have an apartment in Arlington I spend most of my time at but it's not the best for pets so for boarding jobs I visit and make use of my parents home in Winchester. They and their dog love the company! It has a fenced outdoor area where dogs can easily run, play, and of course go to the bathroom. It is accessible via a basement door and most dogs get the hang of it pretty easily (but I am happy to provide extra help for dogs who struggle with stairs or need other extra accomodations.) It is also home to my parents who love furry guests, and of course Emma, an extremely friendly and patient English Setter who adores playing hostess! I am also of course happy to visit other homes to care for pets, both for drop ins and overnight. I will always take the safety and cleanliness of your home seriously! In other's homes I'm happy to adapt to what resources are available and what areas and routines the dog is generally used to and comfortable with in their own usual environment!

“Susie was great with my Maine Coon Suka. She was professional and communicative. Suka is not used to meeting new people and can be an intimidating large cat, but Susie knew to give Suka her space and wait for when she’s ready. Suka warmed up to her and was side swiping her and rubbing against her. I’d hire Susie again.”

“Hillary was a great find in the "eleventh hour" of my search for service. She dropped in and took really good care of my dog while I was far away for the day. I felt confident from our first texts and Hillary's generous effort to come to my home for a meet n greet. Hillary followed through with great communication, lots of photos and follow up texts. I would call her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her services ! Thank you so much!”

About: I have a gold retriever and I do know how difficult to leave them when you have to go. I’ll take care them like they are home. I’m full time mom, and my pup can play with your pup to make sure they won’t be alone. I’m full time mom and always home. Feel free to let me know if there’s any specific needs. So I can stay with your baby all the time to give them cuddles & play. I only accept a pup boarding at my house except you have 2 pups at the same time. My kids are pet lover too. They are more than happy to sleep with your baby if it’s needed.

About: My experience with animals is 10+ years. I currently have six reptiles including a snake and I have a black lab named Raven and some bettas, too. Other experience includes veterinary internships with hands-on experience, I worked at a farm, I worked at a doggy daycare, and I have passed vet technology courses online. My business is called Mac’s Petcare through which I walk dogs and take care of pets. I really enjoy my career and I would love to work with cats too! I currently only work with dogs but am definitely open to caring for cats. I can do weekdays from around 2-5PM!! I also accept other requests. I walk dogs from 10 AM-2 PM currently, and I love it very much❤️ I try to make sure they feel safe at all times and I make sure they have a good time as well👍😊💜 I absolutely love working with the animals!!

About: When I was born I always had dogs around. Then, I owned my own. Also, throughout life I have been sitting my family’s and friends’ dogs. Dogs are family members without which I can’t imagine my life! I go on walks with dogs, I cook with them around, I do work with them next to me on a chair, so I consider dogs a part of my day! I feed and walk them, play and talk to them and pet them! :) I also make sure that they are feeling physically and emotionally alright!
