About: I’ve taken care of numerous types of dogs and cats since 2019. I can provide oral medications and injections to animals, as well as care for elderly dogs and dogs with special needs. I am currently a graduate student at Bryant University pursuing actuarial science. I love taking care of animals when I am not at work or my classes. I work hard to ensure that the animals are well taken care of and given plenty of pets. I also ensure that the houses I stay at are as clean as possible.

Tyler is wonderful. My pup is usually shy around males due to her past but she absolutely adores him. As soon as she sees his car in the driveway she gets so excited. He's great with her.

About: I have been taking care of and had pets my whole life, and taken on more responsibility as soon as I have been able. I am patient and dedicated, and easily adapt to what you and your pet want and need. I have pet sat for many neighbors and family friends and friends of friends, and both the people and the pets absolutely adore me. Especially the pets. I have taken care of senior pets, special needs pets, adult pets, and kittens and puppies/baby animals. I have also worked with people a lot too, through childcare, babysitting, senior care, and customer service! I do especially love to watch pets though! I am going to be working a part time job, but I will always make time to try and make care work! I am communication first, and a problem solver, so I will always communicate to make things try to work!!!! I am a very dedicated and flexible person. I am safety and other primary needs first, but I am dedicated to make sure every pet and person feels comfortable and safe with me. I am calm but can be assertive, but I make it a point to follow what works best for others.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and currently help care for a high-energy Border Collie/Sheltie mix and three cats. I have experience caring for senior and special-needs pets, including administering transdermal and liquid medications and helping manage ongoing medical care for a cat with hyperthyroidism. I also helped care for a dog with hypothyroidism, pancreatitis, and liver disease, giving me experience following specialized care routines and monitoring pets with chronic health conditions. I’m comfortable reading cat and dog body language, handling multi-pet households, and caring for cats who are skilled escape artists. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and needs, and I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine. I work part-time Tuesday through Thursday from 3–6 PM and Saturdays from 8 AM–3 PM. Outside of those hours, I have flexible availability for drop-in visits and house sitting and can provide feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and medication administration as needed. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to cat and dog body language, take extra care with pets who may try to escape, and make sure doors, gates, and other safety measures are always secure. I’m also comfortable caring for senior and special-needs pets and administering medications according to owner instructions.

About: Hi I am Nora- a reliable student who loves spending time with animals of all sizes and personalities! I grew up in town with a Golden Retriever and a Bengal cat, but since their passings I have been occasionally watching other’s dogs! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to take care of their furry loved ones (mostly large dogs) while going away for a weekend or a longer vacation. I am young, ambitious, and thoughtful, but new to this platform! I am currently working part time as a cashier while completing my online masters program at UMass. My flexible spring/summer schedule M-F can accommodate your needs, while also making time for myself and my education. I am available for drop ins, walks, or house sitting and can accept last minute bookings if convenient. Only available until September! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always prioritize safety and communication with each client and I expect the same from you. I will be sure to keep you updated and send pics/vids to let you know your pet is being taken care of! Looking forward to establishing a connection with you and your pet, while also making them feel comfortable. Open to short or weekly commitments during the summer based off your needs.

About: Hello! My name is Elena, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pups. I have over six years of experience caring for dogs and have been pet sitting since I was 13. I’m comfortable with everything from walks and playtime to basic training and, of course, plenty of snuggles. I take pride in providing reliable, attentive, and loving care so you can feel confident that your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and routine are always my top priority, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I am not employed during the summer, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pets. I am available for dog boarding, pet sitting, and walks any day of the week and at flexible times. I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide dependable care whenever you need it I do not have a fenced-in yard, but I spend a lot of time outdoors with my dog, Mabel, exploring different walking and play areas around town. From dog parks to open fields and baseball fields, we are always staying active and getting plenty of exercise on and off leash. I also have all the essentials needed to keep your dog comfortable and happy, including toys, treats, fresh water, and bathing supplies. Your pup will always have plenty of attention, activity, and care while staying with me!

I can’t say enough good things about our dog walker. She’s confident and experienced with large dogs and has the energy to keep up with my very high-drive pup, which is no easy task. Reliable, professional, and clearly loves what she does. I highly recommend to anyone, especially with an active dog.

About: I have had pets all my life. Dogs, cats, guinea pigs, turtles and fish. I know first hand how scary it can feel to leave your loved ones in the hands of a stranger. You do not have to worry with me- I will take care of them as if they are my own and send you lots of pictures. I will respect your pets unique quirks and you can be assured that you won’t come home to a pet who gained a couple pounds. Anything your pet needs- I am here. I’ve taken several classes in pet training (cats and dogs) and done online courses on pet behavior studies. I’m an auditor so I can do hybrid work. If you give me enough notice, I’ll work from home the entire week so I can give your pet the attention it needs! I have a one bedroom apartment so I can separate animals into three rooms: my room, the kitchen, and the living room. The entire apartment is pet- proofed so no cords or wires are showing anywhere.
