“Julie and her family have been taking amazing care of Luca a few days a week for me while I adjust to a new work schedule. They really love him and treat him like their own. I love seeing pictures from their outings and walks! Luca is always excited to see them when I drop him off! As a new puppy mom I was nervous to leave him with anyone but Julie and her family made me feel so at ease. Would 10/10 recommend their services!”

13. Isin S.
“Isin is a wonderful dog sitter. I travel for work sometimes and i leave my Pekingese Lola with her sometimes. Lola is very active for a small dog and requires a bit time spent at kitchen to prepare her food as she did not eat dog meal. Isin did all correctly and even sent photos of the meal prepared and also photos from lola eating. I highly recommend Isin dog sit service.”


14. Missy S.
About: Recently moved to a cute farm house in Byfield. Great area for walking dogs. Dead end street with trails and brooks and reservoir close by.. I lLove to take my dog on hikes and walks on the beach. Have plenty of time to share my day with your pets. Can provide references from PA where I used to live. I have always owned dogs and cats and have no shame admitting my dog Charlie is my best friend. I would love to find a few regular customers who would like to meet up and make sure your and my dog like one another. I do like to have meet and greets at my house prior to accepting pet sitting or day care in my house. I believe I owe that to both your dog as well as mine. Hope you consider my services Thanks Missy Hello I’m an active person who loves to take dogs on long walks and hikes. Unfortunately my Dog is 13 and has slowed down drastically. I’ve loved animals since I’ve been a child and my dog Charlie is honestly my best friend. My property in Byfield is on a dead end street with beautiful trails along the stream or trails through the woods. Very quiet neighborhood with lots of puppy neighbors


15. Felicia F.
“Felicia is a hardworking and reliable worker. She has been in the animal business for countless years as a Vet Tech and Veterinary student. I highly recommend Felicia as she will be able to assist to all your pets needs both generally and medically.”


16. Kathy O.


“Kathy was simply amazing to work with. She’s very inviting and was able to accommodate our dogs’ stay very last minute. She has plenty of room for the dogs to run and play outside and is very knowledgeable when working with animals in general. Highly recommend Kathy to anyone - I will definitely be using her again in the future.”


17. Maggie S.

“Maggie was amazing with my dog Happy. She was extremely accommodating on very short notice and took great care of him. I will definitely book Maggie again.”


18. Rose M.

“We were having a rough day today and despite our best intentions, we were not giving Little Edie our best. Rose came through and made us look like the dog parents that we try to be. We'll be back often, and we will always be grateful for how you saved the day for our best buddy!”


19. Leyani V.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. Currently have a dog and a cat! Meredith the cat and September the dog! I also have 7 year old twins that love to play and help with their pets, and love meeting new animals. I’m a stay at home mom, so I have time during the weekdays while kids are at school, to do drop ins or walks. I also have a friendly pup that has a lot of energy and enjoys playing with other dogs, if I’m doing dog sitting. My dog gets one long walk per day and we have a backyard perfect for catch and running. Sometimes we go to the dog park too!


20. Erin S.
“Erin is highly recommended! My dogs love her! She's friendly, caring and has a true love of animals. My dogs took to her immediately. She came to my home to stay with my two dogs over a long weekend. She took them for walks, gave cuddles, and treats! She took very good care of them. We were very comforted knowing they were being loved and cared for while we were away. I would trust my dogs in Erin's care anytime!”
