Your Pup’s Home Away From Home!
I’ve spent the last 10 years as a dog mom to three very different pups, each of whom taught me something different about caring for dogs. I’ve cared for a disabled dog who required daily hands-on care and mobility assistance, a large senior dog, and a nervous/reactive dog. Because my own dogs had needs that made leaving them with someone else stressful, I understand how important it is to find someone you truly trust. I was always the nervous dog mom asking a million questions and worrying while I was away, so my goal is to give other dog parents the peace of mind I always wanted. I’m comfortable with senior dogs, mobility needs, medications, diapers and hygiene care, nervous or anxious pups, and dogs who simply need a little more patience and understanding. These days my home is a little quieter, and I have a lot of dog-mom love with nowhere to go. I’d love to give your pup a safe, comfortable home away from home where they can settle in, be loved, and be treated like one of my own while you’re away.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I highly recommend Fatima and Eric as a loving and responsibles pet sitter. 🐾 They take care of my dog Emma whenever we travel, sometimes for two weeks or longer, and I always have complete peace of mind. Fatima aand Eric are wonderful with Emma—They take her on plenty of walks in safe areas, keeps her meals on schedule, makes sure she gets all her potty breaks, and gives her lots of love and attention. Fatima also has a big heart for animals and has experience rescuing and caring for them. I trust her completely with Emma, and that says everything! Mirian Baldeos
Fatima is one of the very few people I trust completely with my Poppy. She has always been an incredible animal lover, and I’ve seen firsthand how much love, time, and care she has given to her own three dogs throughout their lives. Her love for animals extends far beyond her own pets, she has dedicated a significant amount of her personal time to helping dogs in need, including founding and running a dog rescue. She truly treats animals as family and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, comfortable, safe, and well cared for. She has also cared for my Poppy many times, and I never have to worry because I know she’ll give her the same attention and affection she gave her own. Fatima is patient, attentive, responsible, and genuinely understands that every animal has their own personality and needs. I would trust her completely with any pet and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for someone who will care for their animal as if they were her own.

Schedule
I’m a consultant with a flexible schedule and work from home on Mondays and Fridays. Our mornings are pretty flexible, so your pup’s day can start with a walk, breakfast, potty time, and plenty of attention before I begin my day. On the days I do go into work, I plan my schedule around the pups staying with me and aim to never leave them alone for more than 3–4 hours at a time. Whether your dog is used to being crated when home alone or prefers to free roam, I’m happy to follow the routine they’re most comfortable with. My boyfriend also lives with me and will be part of their care. He is home after 2 PM Tuesday through Saturday, and I don’t work weekends, so between the two of us there is plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and keeping your pup company.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I know every dog is different, so I want their stay with me to feel as close to their normal routine as possible. I’m happy to follow your pup’s feeding, walking, medication, sleeping, and crating routine, including dogs who are more comfortable having their own space. I live in a dog-friendly area of East Boston with the waterfront and beach right behind me, so there are plenty of options for walks and outdoor time. I also understand that a dog-friendly neighborhood isn’t necessarily ideal for every dog. If your pup is reactive, nervous, or uncomfortable around other dogs, I’m comfortable adjusting our walking route and schedule to give them the space they need. I also have a dog stroller available for senior dogs or pups with mobility limitations who still enjoy getting outside. Most importantly, I’ll never force your dog into an environment or interaction they aren’t comfortable with. I want your pup to feel safe here and you to feel comfortable knowing their individual needs are being respected.
