Pet care experience
Update: Generally not available for mid-day walks at this time, but available most evenings and for house-sitting! ——————————————————- Hi! I'm a fourth year medical student at University of Massachusetts Medical School, based in Worcester. I'm originally from California and am really missing our family dog while I'm living far away - I love dogs and I need more of them in my life! I have been the primary caretaker for dogs before and am very knowledgeable about dog care and needs. I have experience with older dogs, puppies, multiple-dog households, and dogs with special needs (medical needs, dog reactivity, anxiety, etc). I’ve also had cats my whole life and absolutely love taking care of them! I’ve lived with old cats as well and have experience with medication administration and sub-q fluids. I have ferrets and a bearded dragon, so I am familiar with a variety of animal species and would be happy to care for your pets!
Reviews
Dina was great with Pepper! She was curious to know how to make Pepper comfortable while we were away since Pepper has separation anxiety. Dina was also very accommodating with us on our way back since we were running a little late. Overall it was a great experience and we'd definitely have Dina watch Pepper in the future.
Dina is an absolutely wonderful and very competent dog carer. Her calm demeanor and kindness with Seamus was very evident despite some GI challenges. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you so much Dina for your flexibility and for the great care you gave Seamus!
Dina went above and beyond. She was very patient with our shy pup and won him over! She was great communicating, highly recommend!
Dina was awesome staying with with our two pups Jenny and Timber for a few nights near the holidays. Would absolutely recommend.

I am happy to do whatever is best for you and your pet, whether that means crating your pup after a walk, providing access to your yard, etc!
Information Dina B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pets have any special needs, including but not limited to human or dog reactivity, food allergies, and leash etiquette. I am very flexible but would love to know ahead of time so we can have the best experience possible!
A typical day
Whatever you would like! I adjust my animal-sitting for each animal. Whether your dog is high energy and would enjoy a long hike, or is elderly and likes a leisurely stroll around the block, I can accommodate for what is needed.
