“Elizabeth is so thoughtful and kind. She has listened to everything about my dog’s needs and has truly provided great care for her. She asks questions and is very understanding of how every dog is unique. You can tell she does this for her love for dogs and it truly shows. I look forward to Elizabeth taking care of Marley in the future!”
“So happy to have found Katie! Has great experience with animals, and my dogs warmed up to her right away. Punctual, responsive, and gave me detailed updates while we were away. Thank you!”
About: I love animals and have fostered countless cats and dogs for the last 40 years. I am sensitive to their overt body language and needs. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can make myself available for last minute care or emergencies, and can be readily reached for updates re the pet I’m caring for. I work for Trusted Pet Sitters and have been taking care of many pets in their homes in that process. I care for cats and dogs in their environment and know how to make them feel safe and loved in their owners’ absence.
“Paloma is the best, not just for watching our pets but she also waters the plants, collects mail, and has even helped moving a vehicle during a snow storm. Truly a life saver while we're away from home.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have had the wonderful experience of caring for/watching dogs ranging from puppies to elder dogs. Friends and family have relied on me to check-in, dog sit, walk, play, and feed their dogs. They have trusted me with their pets without constraints. I’m currently working full time so this would be on a part time basis. However, my flexibility of WFH, allows me extra time for your pups! Ensuring your pets are comfortable with new faces is the most important. Routines, favorite toys, and time outside are my favorite things to help keep the dogs happy!
“Maggie is great with Vinny and takes care to give him the attention he needs while his Mom is away. Thankful to have someone I can trust with my fyr-baby! She is also so flexible and accommodating with my busy travel schedule. Don't know what I'd do without her!”
“Keelyn is really just the sweetest and most understanding sitter I’ve ever worked with. She’s attentive, caring and patient with our cat who’s shy of strangers. 1000/ 10 stars! Will definitely want to work with her again in the future!”
“Isabelle did a great job of taking care of Ruby! She was thoughtful and kept me updated every moment making my trip so much better not having to worry about Ruby.”
About: My previous animal care experience includes dog walking, overnight care, and horse farm management. I am comfortable with pets of all kinds, sizes, and temperaments! I am currently a full-time student; however, my schedule allows for me to work most days and weekends. Mornings and late afternoons are best for me during the work week. I am comfortable walking with dogs of all sizes and energy levels on leash or off leash in fenced in yards. Pet safety is my number one priority.
About: My regular job is working at a pet boarding facility (boarding at New England Veterinary Clinic!) as a pet care attendant, where I do all the same work as any pet sitter, just at my place of work. I feed dinner, give meds, take out and play with, both cats and dogs. I work part time and I am a student, but as classes end for the semester, I am open except for my 4/week 4 hr shifts at work. I have to be back at my house at night to take care of my own cat, but am available first thing in the morning and last thing at night as well as throughout the day. I care deeply about all pets and whatever quirks make them themselves. I know there may be a random thing that makes no sense, but brings them comfort, or even just you. I also care about people, and I know how important it is to feel that your pet is well cared for, and relive the anxiety of going on a trip. Not to mention, as I already take care of pets for work, I am very familiar with bonding with both pets and pet owners.
“Timothy took such great care of our puppy, Scout! My husband and I had a schedule worked out to take care of her during the work week when he unexpectedly had to go out of town for three days. On short notice, Timothy came by and met my husband and Scout, and then dropped by the rest of the week to check in on her for three days. I got updates and photos and really felt like Scout was getting good attention and care. I'm glad I found someone who I'll be able to call in the future- I know Scout loved him too!”
About: I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t taking care of animals. Ive always loved dogs and more recently I’ve adopted two cats. I even thought about becoming a veterinarian professionally at one point. I am familiar with all the tasks necessary to take care of animals from taking them on walks to administering medication. I've also received training in first aid and CPR! Right now my schedule is very flexible. I can work any day of the week at pretty much anytime. I prefer shorter term engagements like dog walking but I’m also available for pet sitting over longer periods of time. I live in rural Hillsborough and often walk my own dogs through the woods around my house. It is the perfect environment for animals that like to hike. My own dogs are friendly and energetic. However they are easily separated should they not get along. My house is large enough to give every animal the space they need.
About: I have owned dogs since I was 7 years old. I have always cared for them as if they were my own children! I have a 8 yr old pug (Lily) who has gotten along with every dog we have had. Snuggles and walks are part of the stay and every doggie guest is sent home with a special treat as a thank you for overnight stays with me! I can also pick up and drop off local pups at no charge! I work from home so I am always here to attend to the dogs. I also have older children who love to play and cuddle with them! I have a fenced in yard and a safe street to walk dogs on. I have a gate to prevent dogs from going upstairs. My couch is a comfy space for the dogs to lounge!

Abby was so incredible when she arrived to check on our cats and found one with an injury. Immediate contact, clear photos and description to help us make decisions remotely, and took great care doctoring and keeping us in the loop until we got home. It is such a great feeling to have someone you trust completely with your furballs, and have them happy too. And for the record- everything was fine thanks to her extra care. 20/10 highly recommend!
Brianne took care of my cat for two weeks with drop-in visits and did a great job. She fed her, gave her medication, scooped the litter, and made sure she got some playtime and attention. She even took our trash out. It was such a relief knowing our cat was being looked after so well while we were away. I didn’t have to worry, and that meant everything. I’d absolutely book Brianne again.
Sarah has cat sit for me many times before. This time I was leaving in a hurry with a lot of personal stuff going on, and didn’t have time to prepare for her as much as I usually do. She totally had it covered, and picked up all the slack to make sure my cat was cared for really well! I am so grateful to have her.
This was the second time I used Stiles to check in on my cat while i was away and give her meds. They are always reliable and communicative by sending photos and I am happy to know there is someone I can trust to care for my cat when I go out of town. Definitely recommend!
Ida was a great sitter!! She checked in on every visit, kept me updated throughout my time away, was on time, punctual and took great care of my cat, Gia. She was also able to administer medications and kept me in the loop with my cats health issues. I would recommend her to anyone needing a cat sitter and will definitely book with her again!
Leslie was wonderful caring for our two senior cats while we were away. Each cat has a distinct personality - one is shy and timid while the other is gregarious and outgoing. The daily briefings and multiple photos Leslie provided for each visit ( 2 daily) assured us they were being visited / fed as scheduled,scooped and played with. She also doesn't mind inhome security cameras which is important to us for checking on our seniors. It was a great feeling to travel without worry, we most definitely will be calling Leslie for future needs.
