I Love Your Pets As Much As You Do!

Pet care experience

I grew up with a German Shepherd, three cats, hamsters, turtles, and frogs in Hanover, Massachusetts. Over the past ten years, I've been caring for dogs and cats for friends and family and it's the best feeling in the world for me to be around animals in any capacity.

This is my first time using George and I will definitely be asking him to care for Blanche again, he was communicative and took great care of my pet

I've been both a dog and cat owner my entire adult life, and throughout that time George has provided care for all of them. He's been a go-to sitter for all of my pets due to his dependability and his love for being around animals. He can be counted on to provide the love and attention needed to feel relaxed leaving your pets in his care for both short and long periods of time.

George and my dog connected instantly! Whenever my dog is with George he gets lots of exercise and play time. George is patient, attentive and most of all caring. I will definitely be reaching out to him when I need a sitter or even just a walk.

George is the most caring and attentive animal lover I’ve ever known. I’ve seen him get ready pre-dawn, in blizzard conditions, to go out with a dog he was housing. I’ve seen him stop in his tracks to help a wounded bird in the park to get care. There’s no creature too small, old, in need or under appreciated for him not to fall in love with. He gives his whole heart into caring for animals and it shows!

Safety, trust & environment

I can walk dogs for around an hour or more, and play with them outside as well- ensuring that they stay clean and safe for the entire time that they're in my care. Currently I do not have any animals in my apartment, and am open to hosting pets here if it's a good fit. I've even had my landlord's Scottish Terrier here for overnights, so you can be sure I have a very pet-friendly space.

Information george w. would like to know about your pet

It is helpful for me to know any specifics about your pet- energy level, training cues, typical routine, special needs, fears, likes/dislikes, favorite toys/treats/activities. Looking forward to meeting you both!

A typical day

From quiet neighborhoods to exciting parks, I can take your pet around your neighborhood or my own! At your home, I would love to play fetch, tug of war, or just give your pet the touch and affection they need! I can also take your dog on runs and hikes for longer periods of time.
