Information Francesca C. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the dog is friendly with other dogs and small children, if they get anxious or scared of anything, how active they are, if they are food motivated, if they have any allergies or health concerns, just any basic information that is important to know!

A typical day

I love local parks and paths like Cutler Park, the Cove, and Weston Reservoir! I love to play with toys, work on some training or tricks, and hang out watching TV, or taking a walk around the neighborhood!

Active and attentive dog lover!

Pet care experience

I have lived in Newton, MA all of my life and know some great trails and hikes for an awesome long walk for your pup! I have taken care of my Australian Shepherd, Dakota, and have worked alongside my mom in boarding dogs for over 6 years. I am a reliable and trusting caretaker and prioritize the needs of each individual dog in regards to their energy level, health, age, and comfort levels with people and public situations. I have a strong love for dogs and care about giving them the best possible care. I am available for long walks for high energy dogs, or walks around the neighborhood and check ins for when you are away. I look forward to taking good care of your pup!

Francesca was great, I had some pretty unsolidified plans and she was super kind and willing to accommodate a shifting schedule! And my pup seemed to be doing great when we got home, thank you so so much!

Francesca was a great dog sitter while I was out of town for a week. She is very responsive and provides photo updates during the stay. My dog was very happy during and after the stay. I would use Francesca for boarding again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will take great care of your dog.
