House Sitting in Melrose

“Fahad was excellent. He housesat for my 2 dogs for 1 week. He adores dogs and bonded with them quickly. He left my house in tip top shape and was completely respectful. I even received compliments from my neighbors about how nice he is :-) I recommend him wholeheartedly.”

“Elizabeth was amazing to our fur baby, checking in daily and sending pictures of our dog following their walks. She left our home more clean then she found it and for that we are so grateful. Thank you Elizabeth for accommodating us on such short notice! 10/10 recommend and hope to be a repeat client.”

“my kitty loves tati. tati is very gentle and kind with all animals and i would totally trust her to watch misty again if i ever need it”

“Shannon watched our 7 yo dog and 11 yo cat for 9 nights in our home while we were away. It’s nerve-racking to leave yours pets and home in the care of someone you don’t really know, but Shannon made it easy. She was super communicative, conscientious, and treated our pets and home as if they were her own. Honestly, I think our pets enjoyed their own little vacation getting even more walks, adventures, cuddles, and attention with Shannon than they do when sharing their time with our toddler! Shannon’s background working in vet offices was also helpful in making suggestions for behaviors she noticed from our pets, which was an added bonus. I’d absolutely hire Shannon again and would recommend her to anyone else looking for a friendly, respectful, trustworthy house- and pet-sitter.”

“Caitlin was an awesome dog sitter! She kept in touch throughout. We really appreciated her meeting us ahead and being flexible on times. We cant wait to have her back!”

“Kelcee is GREAT! Very responsive while setting up the booking and communicated regular updates during her stay. Took great care of my little guy. I feel great leaving my dog with her!”

“So grateful for Andrew! He took excellent care of our house and dog. Very professional, responsive and trustworthy. Would highly recommend to anyone!”

“Ana was great! She sent us lots of photos and updates, which we always appreciate. The pets seemed happy and healthy. The house was super clean when we got home and she even changed the sheets on the bed, which was awesome since we didn’t get in until after 11 pm. We would definitely hire Ana again.”

About: I’ve petsit and walked the most shy to exuberant fur pets for friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers. Not only will I care and tend to your pets needs while they’re in my care, but I will provide them with the utmost comfort and respect to make them feel at home. With permission from pet owners, I’ve taken pets to dog parks, on hikes/trails, played indoors, fed pets based on feeding schedule and dietary restrictions, and performed Th/Fr/Sat/Sun check-ins. Open to dropping off pet for grooming and vet appointments on weekends if detailed instructions are provided, including areas of concerns to be addressed. I’m currently working full-time; however, I work remotely Thursdays and Fridays, so I’m available to pet sit then. Additionally, I’m free to play and take care of pets 7 AM-5 PM on weekends. Evenings are open upon request. I ask that dates for evening coverage are provided a week in advance to confirm my availability. In my client’s home, I make sure to identify all exits to avoid any dashing incidents. If pet owners have crates, I make sure they are in view and safely secured before playtime or napping. Any rooms that are off limits will be safeguarded. Crates and all doors to house will be locked upon exiting for end of shift. Presently, my current household does not allow pets due to possible roommate allergies. When pet sitting for family, friends, and coworkers, I make sure dogs/cats are walked on schedule and clean up messes with doggy bags, scooper for cat litter, crate cleaning for smaller animals; feeding is on schedule; play time in designated areas of the house or outside in the yard, neighboring areas, parks, trails/hikes; and nap time once we return home. If the pet has potty issues, I’ll make sure to closely address their needs in the time I’m there with a detailed list provided by pet owners.

“Angie was wonderful with our elderly dog, Abby! She is a good communicator, asks questions if she needs any clarification, and is a pleasure to work with!”

“I had an excellent experience with Fran as my dog sitter! She provided top-notch care for my dog, Randy, while I was on vacation. Fran's friendly and welcoming approach made Randy feel right at home. I truly appreciated the regular photo updates and communication throughout the day. It gave me peace of mind knowing that Randy was in good hands. I highly recommend Fran as a dog sitter and would give her a 5-star rating without hesitation. Thank you, Fran, for your outstanding service!”

“Raven was great about coordinating this weekend overnight for my dogs. She knew I didn't need too many updates and sent some photos along, and was easy to reach if I needed to check in. Would 100% work with her again.”

“Lindsey pet sat our cat and dog and did a fantastic job communicating and taking care of them. From the photos of them snuggling they were clearly very happy and comfortable. Our dog needs medication due to allergies and an infection and she did a great job staying on top of everything. Very grateful to have found someone so wonderful to care for our pets.”

“Michelle took great care of our Aussie over a long weekend! She provided updates throughout the stay and we came home to a happy pup and clean house. Would love to have her watch our dog again and would recommend her to others!”

“Raquel was fantastic watching our 2 dogs and cat at our home while we were away for the weekend. She was very communicative and sent photos throughout her stay and made us feel relieved knowing our ‘crew’ was in good hands! Our house was left in great shape too and we plan to use her again in the future.”

“Juliet was an excellent house sitter and doggy sitter for the week with our blind senior dog Raizy!! She sent lots of pics and videos playing with her and walking her. Would have her back again!!”

“Nicole did a wonderful job sitting our shih tzu, Emmie! She sent updates and picture while we were gone. She is a sweetheart and stayed with our pup until we came home because of thunderstorms in the area. She truly cares for fur-babies!”
