“Our yellow lab seemed to enjoy the company and care at Lindsay's house. He moved right in to share her dog's bed and apparently made himself right at home. The photos that Lindsay sent us showed him relaxing during his "camp" weekend at her house. This was our first time using Lindsay's services and it was a great success!”

“Ari was very caring and communicative while caring for our pup for the first time. She was attune to Hazel’s needs and went above and beyond playing and caring for her. We will definitely be booking with Ari again!”

“Lori and Billy have been outstanding sitters for my dog Jack. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Jack was being cared for by such wonderful people. I received daily pictures and updates which eased my anxiety of trying someone new to watch our dog! I will use them again and again should we need a sitter! Highly recommended!”
“Gienna is such a fantastic dog sitter! She made our dog feel right at home, and provided excellent communication about our pup. We will hope to send our dog to her for future pet sitting needs!”

“Jennifer was a wonderful care taker for our dog. She was patient and kind. Kept us updated on a longer stay. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you.”

“Donna and Roland were so welcoming to our dog, Sophie! Donna was very kind and responsive throughout the whole booking process and sent us pictures while we were away. We feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful couple to care for our dog!”

“We feel so incredibly lucky to have found this wonderful dog sitter. Our dog is very anxious and has never stayed with anyone over night except for family. Rebecca let us visit twice before leaving Archie overnight so that he was able to meet not only Rebecca, but her husband and two children as well. This made all the difference for his and our comfort level! From the moment we connected, Rebecca and her family made us feel completely at ease leaving our dog in their care. Their home is warm, welcoming, and truly feels like a second home for pets. They treated our dog, Archie, like one of their own — with so much love, patience, and attention. We received thoughtful updates and photos daily that showed how happy and comfortable our dog was, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. What really sets Rebecca apart is how genuinely invested she is in the well-being of the dogs she cares for. She and her family paid attention to routines, personality quirks, and little details that made all the difference. It’s clear this isn’t just a service to them — it’s something they truly enjoy and take pride in. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and that says everything. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with them again and recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone looking for loving, responsible, and exceptional care. Five stars isn’t enough — they’re absolutely amazing!”

“My 5 month old puppy loves it at Kathy’s house! She has 2 absolutely amazing goldens and a little fenced in yard to play in! She especially made good friends with Snickerdoodle. My only worry was that she wouldn’t want to come home after having so much fun!”

“Natasha and Jon are amazing— we have a small dog who is a little apprehensive about people and has some separation anxiety but he did so well with them. The dogs were so well taken care of and they sent us tons of photos (I’m an anxious dog owner). You’ll be lucky if you keep your dogs with them :)”

“Michael was very communicative the whole time, and our Caju had a great time at his house! He was well taken care of and came back happy and tired :) I’ll definitely do it again when needed!”

“Krista is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! I have been a dog owner for the last 20 years and have never felt so at ease as I do leaving my fur babies with her ❤️ From the moment we messaged and her prompt and thorough responses, she instantly made me feel at ease. When we had the meet and greet, I could see my dogs instantly felt comfortable with her dogs, her family and home. It was such a comforting feeling to know that my Charlie girl and JuJu would be well taken care of and loved. 5 stars is not enough to give Krista!! 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟”

“This was our second stay with Paul & Megan and I feel ever more grateful for them and the love they provide for our girl Nala. They take such great care of our girl, so extremely thoughtful. We got lots of pictures and videos of her days, which are full of enrichment activities and being around others and family. I felt fully informed of everything that was going on in such a positive and reassuring manner. We can really tell Nala loves spending her time here.”


“Belinda was wonderful with our furbaby and sent us an update each day. She was very accessible by text and easy to communicate with. Our dog got along well with her dog, Sloane, who is a sweetie. Also, she has the perfect fenced in yard for the dogs to play! We will certainly work with Belinda again!”


“Nice communications and Brewster was happy at drop-off, in pictures and at pickup. We had problems getting back and Hyesun and Bob were very accommodating as we were stuck overnight at an airport hotel! Location is wonderful for a dog as the walks in this part of Marblehead provide quiet streets and variety of sniffing :)”

“Andre was great with Luna ! Kept great contact with videos. She was walked for hours a day. When I picked her up she ate and crashed out. She was clearly tired. I will definitely use Andre again!!!🐆”

“Freddi was a fantastic sitter for my dog, Edie! She sent great photos and updates during her stay. She clearly took great care of Edie, taking her on long walks on the beach every morning and being sensitive to her needs since she can be anxious in new places. We definitely would recommend Freddi and hope to have Edie stay again in the future!”

“Zwany is super nice and easy to work with. She is communicative and follows all instructions. Her goal is the best for your pups and she always accomplishes that goal. She also sends all toys and materials you send with your pup back cleaner then they started which is so nice after a trip, one less thing to worry about!”

“Michelle has become my sweet boy Rocco’s home away from home. I can’t say enough good things about her and her family! Rocco LOVES going to Michelle’s to hang out while we are away. I remember thinking back to how nervous I was to leave him with somebody that wasn’t family, and now I am fortunate to say I don’t worry one bit. We have used Michelle so many times over the past few years and are so lucky to have found somebody so wonderful.”

“Julie and her family were amazing for our dog, Queso, and our family. She helped us out on a last minute cancellation of our dog sitter and took care of Queso for a full week. Her family took her on walks, played with her, and welcomed her into their home! She updated us with messages and photos. We are very grateful and hope to use her in the future. Thank you so much!”
