About: Patient and friendly, have previously helped care for aging pets. I know how much they mean to you and being a student missing his own pets at home I can’t wait to be a great friend to your own companions Full time student but recent student athlete retiree. I have significant time available towards the beginning and end of each weekday. Weekends are less set by schedule but mostly flexible. I meet pets at their level, introducing myself slowly to gain trust and become a comfortable feature of their home space or range. Once aquatinted, exploration and stimulation on walks or excursions is the aim.

“Pete let out puppy Korben out three times while we attended a Patriots game. Pete was communicative and did a meet-and-greet the day before to make sure Korben was familiar with him. He respected our requests and not only helped Korben have a good walk, but also made sure he had a great time while being mindful of our puppy training. We highly recommend Pete!”


5. William B.

“Billy was great walking Kendall twice a day. I had total confidence in his ability to handle all 100lbs of her, whether she was excited or there were reactive dogs nearby. His calm nature rubs off on her & she waited by the door looking forward to each visit. He is so easy to coordinate with!”

15. Rebecca P.

“Amazing sitter. Went extra mile to make sure my dog is safe and well fed. Very careful and attention to detail - I also have a cat, so it’s always tricky to make sure she doesn’t run out and we feel like we are in very good hands with Rebecca. She also took my dog on long walks even when it’s raining. My dog clearly likes her. Would highly recommend”

“Connor is outstanding! I booked him to walk Boston twice day while I was out of town my boy was so happy and Connor gave him the much needed exercise he needed and sent cute pics and updates! He is booked again for next week and I’m working on next month! You won’t be disappointed he communicates well and your animal will love him.”
