“Vania was awesome!!! I needed someone last minute and she came through. She was great with my two pitbulls and treated them like queens. She was always on time and very communicative with pictures. I strongly recommend and will be using her in the future.”

“Diana was helpful and communicative and trustworthy with our little bunny, who was honestly pretty messy and required some extra / unexpected care because he got sick and needed medicine. Diana was very consistent with the updates and we loved having someone so local to provide for Janus.”

“Alejandra has been kind, communicative and great to work with so far. She’s been great about sending photos with status updates which are appreciated. She’s been very patient to our anxious, sweet pup Woody. We’d recommend her to anyone looking for help with drop-ins or walks.”


“My two cats had a wonderful time with Cathy. She played with them and gave them lots of petting. Both of my fur babies were happy and content when I got home. That was just priceless for me - that they were happy and content while I was away. Thank you Cathy!”

“This was the first time Sydney dropped in on my cat Mystery for me. From the start in it was a great experience. Sydney has great energy, good communication and showed genuine care for my cat Mystery. I recieved a detailed update with pictures. I will definitely be booking her again!”


“My first time having a pet sitter and Christina was excellent. My dog normally isnt very friendly but he seems to totally trust Christina by the time I got back. I'd 100% rebook for the next time. Thanks Christina.”


“Iryna has looked after our dog multiple times and she has been great with him! He is an excitable lab and she knows exactly how to handle him. She has taken on last minute bookings for us and been flexible with our schedule which is so helpful. She takes him on good walks and always send a photo. Definitely would book Iryna anytime!”

“Angelique is amazing! She was incredibly patient, kind, and willing to work with us through all of our crazy needs and our dog’s behavioral concerns. She is sweet, honest, and timely. We will absolutely use her again and again and highly recommend her to anyone needing care for their pets.”

“Korin was amazing with our dogs. They can be a little hesitant of strangers when they first come but she did an amazing job adapting to their personality and caring for them. Will book again!”

About: I have had my own cats for about ten years and had farm cats and dogs as a child. My cat recently passed and I am not quite ready to adopt another but want to help others in the mean time! As of right now I’m boarding a sweet female cat for a friend and have been for about a month but she will be going back home in the next few weeks! I live in a studio apartment so I am able to board small to medium animals. I am off just two days otherwise I am available in afternoons after I am off work! Let me know if you have additional questions about my experience or availability! I work full time in San Francisco so I usually leave pretty early in the morning and get back home early afternoon Wednesday through Sunday. Monday and Tuesday I am off but run a few errands. When I had my kitty she would usually feed wet food in the morning and leave some dry food for the day, then when I got home I would leave out some more wet food for the night. I of course have a water fountain and plenty of toys and scratchers for the day and have some play time when I get home. I have a studio apartment so not much room for a big dog but I do have a quiet neighborhood for walks and a gated backyard for play time. Cats should be no issue in the apartment with all the toys and scratchers I have!
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Melrose is $30

Thank you Christina for being so patient getting to know our kitties! We REALLY appreciate the time you spent with them playing, making sure they were fed, and keeping their area clean. Also a huge thank you for your timeliness and fast responses, we will definitely reach out again when we need care!

Melissa was very communicative, proactive, thorough and followed specific requests to better care for our cat. Our cat is on the shy/grumpy side, and Meli was able to earn her trust and let her pet her. We were very appreciative of the daily updates and pictures. Will definitely book again. Thanks so much Meli!

My cat and I had an AMAZING experience with Sydney. She was very friendly and professional during the entire process. After each visit, she left detailed notes and plenty of pictures!! If you want to ensure that your pet is being well loved while you're away, Sydney is the perfect sitter. I will absolutely be contacting her again!

Patrice is absolutely amazing!! She was attentive, punctual, and had great communication with us while we were on vacation. She even brought over dog-safe bubbles for our dog Elly, which was so cute and thoughtful! We felt completely comfortable and safe leaving Elly in her care.

Sydney was absolutely amazing! She took great care of our boys during her drop-in visit and kept us in the loop with real-time updates. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear our pets were in great hands. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would book with Sydney again in a heartbeat! Highly recommend!

Breckyn was a very supportive and enthusiastic pet sitter. I'm doing a trial adoption for two 6 mo old kittens who I've only had for a couple of days. Breckyn had great tidbits of advice for me, and took great care of the sweet kittens at short notice. Thank you! 🙏

Abby was so lovely! Easy to communicate with, consistently schedule for the kitties, always sent me photos and was really responsive. My cats are a bit rambunctious, and got into a few things in my closet while I was gone and she took care of it, which I so so appreciate. Would absolutely book with her again!
