6. Mara L.
“Mara is simply fantastic! I have a 6yr old very timid Jack Russell terrier and Mara was so incredibly patient with her. Never forced her to open up and took it at Zoeys pace ultimately making her feel more comfortable. I get the sweetest pictures and she had listened to all the instructions I’ve left for her. 10/10 would highly recommend her for your dog walking or sitting needs !”

“Hello, Sarah has been my friend for at least 25 years. Sarah is kind, responsible, and very professional - she has worked in the higher levels of corporate America for her entire career and she now teaches a few courses at Boston University. Sarah is also an animal lover. She has had pet cats ever since I've known her, and she treats animals with the love and respect they deserve.

My wife and I cannot recommend Cassie enough!”

19. Kendall B.
About: Hi my name is Kendall, I’m looking to spend time with your furry four legged friends! I am an avid animal lover and have grown-up around animals my entire life. From cats to dogs, from guinea pigs to turtles I’ve had them all as pets and cared for them whole heartedly. I have lots of experience pet sitting and dog walking for neighbors and friends all through high school and college. I currently own a dachshund mix and love him dearly. I enjoy spending quality time with dogs walking, bushing, and playing with them. I do send text and picture updates of owner’s dogs upon request. Feel free to send me a message if you’re in need of a pet sitter or dog walker. I have a full time IT job working from home, but the flexibility in my schedule allowed me to check on your pets or bring my work with me on my phone. I am more than happy to check in and/or walk your dog, I am very attentive to my surroundings. Your pet is in good hands with me.
