About: Hi my name is Leah and I am a college student and lifelong animal lover! have years of experience caring for all kinds of animals from bunnies to alpacas to cats & dogs and everything in between. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. From energetic puppies/kittens to senior pets, I’m comfortable providing attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. I am comfortable working with animals of all kinds and am comfortable administering medications. Feel free to reach out with any questions! I can’t wait to meet your pet! I currently work full time but am available before 8am and after 5pm on Mon/Tues and Thurs/Fri and am available all day on Wednesdays. I am available all day on weekends and I am also able to do overnights anytime throughout the week! I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life and feel confident in my ability to provide a safe and comfortable environment. I also am knowledgeable in noticing signs of illness if veterinary care is needed while you are away. I have years of pet sitting experience with anxious/reactive dogs and am comfortable caring for them as well.

“Karen was so wonderful with our beloved kitties! I can tell from the photos that they really loved her. It is such a good feeling when you’re so far away to know that your pets are being cared for by a kind, responsible, and engaged animal lover. We feel very fortunate to have met Karen and look forward to a continued relationship with her! ?”

“Collette is the best. She responds quickly to requests and is always willing to help. She has taken such great care of our french bulldog and we would never hesitate to hire her again! She leaves great notes and pictures, especially when she thinks our pup is having an “off” day. You can tell she really enjoys working with pets.”

“Hannah was very reliable and a great communicator, sent us photos of our pets and kept us informed on their well-being. We would definitely book her again!”

“Laura was great. She cleaned some unfortunate litter box issues. Bless her. More importantly than that, though. I returned home to cats that were not stressed. This is a first for them and I’m so grateful.”

About: I worked at the Ipswich Animal Shelter for 6 years and have extensive experience caring for animals of all ages. I’ve always owned cats, from kittens to seniors, and am very comfortable caring for cats of all ages and temperaments! I’ve also lived with dogs throughout my life and have cared for friends’ and relatives’ pets while they were away. My experience includes walking, feeding, bathing, and administering medications for both dogs and cats when needed. I’m a huge animal lover and treat every pet like they’re my own. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently have open availability Monday through Friday, which gives me the flexibility to prioritize pet care throughout the week, including walks, visits, and in-home sitting. I’m also able to accommodate weekends when needed with advanced notice. I always care for pets as if they were my own and consistently follow their established routines as closely as possible! In a client’s home, I make sure feeding, walks, litter boxes, playtime, and any medications are handled on schedule, while also keeping their environment clean, calm, and comfortable. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means giving dogs plenty of exercise and enrichment or providing cats with patience, quiet time, and space to adjust at their own pace. I also prioritize communication with pet parents and provide updates so they feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.

About: I have a lot of patience for animals and I love entertaining them, whether that’s playing with them or going on a long walk. For the younger ones, or ones that just have more energy, I would love to run them and keep them in shape. I am super flexible this summer, aside from a few weeks of travel, so whatever works for you works for me. My main priority is going to the gym, but other than that I’m all yours! Whether it’s feeding, walking, brushing, playing, or simply snuggling, I’m always giving my full attention and affection. Also, I think mental stimulation is often overlooked in animal care so I try to incorporate fun games and activities.

About: I have been dog sitting since I was in middle school. Friends, family, friends of friend, and neighbors have trusted me with their furry family members. As someone who has a little pup myself, I know the care and consideration each individual animal needs and deserves. I've worked with a variety of breads, behaviors, and ages and feel equipped to ensure a safe walk, play time, or check in for your dog. Personally, I've adopted a puppy Cairn Terrier, Ruckus. I've loved training with him, creating a bond, and learning more about dog behavior. It's been a really fun journey. He's a sassy little guy. I have been off Rover for the past few years, moving around and attending Grad School. I am excited to be back to help the Essex community care for their pets. I currently work from home, full time. I have flexibility in my schedule to do walks and drop in visits for your dog. Where I can provide full and undivided attention. When I have a dog I'm looking after, I will ensure safety and fun - however that looks for your doggie. Going for a walk, playing catch in the yard, or even just laying on the couch getting some pets. Your pet will be my priority for the duration of my visit.

“Arianna was wonderful! She helped us in a last minute request for help. She sent us pictures of her visit and loving time with Charlie.”

About: I have been a vet tech for many years and am experienced in both large and small animal care. I am very familiar with medication administration, as well as recognizing signs of illness or unease. I love all animals large and small, and will treat your pet like my own! I work for myself and have an extremely flexible schedule that I can tailor to individual needs. I am a homebody and am around most weekends I have a fenced in yard, and an extremely friendly and loving dog in my own home. I am also very comfortable with overnight stays, in which my partner would watch my own dog.

“Janine is amazing! She was very attentive to our diabetic cat and showed him tons of love and affection! She administered daily insulin shots as required twice a day. Janine also sent us daily photos of her visits, which were appreciated. Our cat fell in love with her ♥️. We highly recommend Janine for your pet sitting needs. Thanks again Janine, you were awesome!”

“Samantha is a great pet sitter. The only opinion that really matters is the pet's, and he took to her immediately on the first visit. He's usually skittish and hides at first if he doesn't know someone, but there he was on the first visit, coming right up to say hello. From the human standpoint, Samantha is a kind person and professional. She shows up and spends time with your pet. Highly recommended!”

About: My name is Jeanne, I have been taking care of pets for over 20 years. I love them as my own. I believe in order to gain trust and respect with an animal is to trust and respect them as well!

I am available to stay at your home as needed for overnight visits. Whatever yours and your pets ' needs i can come to you.

“Henry is so amazing! My dog is fearful and tends to growl and look scary and he was confident, calm, and able to help get my dog to go outside. I appreciate him jumping in in short notice to take care of my two dogs. He did a great job. I plan to use him anytime in the future that I need a dog sitter.”

“Rachael was very professional and a great communicator, and did an awesome job winning over our shy cat while we were out of town. Thank you so much!”

“Stephanie did an excellent job dropping in to take care of our cat! Pepper is elderly and very timid but warmed up quickly. Stephanie went above and beyond and even brought in some big packages that were delivered while we were gone. She was great at sending pictures and updating us on how Pepper was doing while we were out of town for a week. We would definitely trust Stephanie to take care of Pepper next time we are away!”

“Watanya is the best cat sitter I’ve ever seen. She was consistent and thoughtful with our sweet senior cat. She fed and refreshed her water daily. After every visit, she sent an update with photos and videos so we could rest assured knowing our girl was in good hands. She really went above and beyond! Ombre ADORES her and we will certainly be booking her again! If you have a chance to work with Watanya, you should take it”
