House Sitting in Newtonville

“Victoria did a great job with Freya (who can be very shy and anxious with new people). She kept me updated with pics and texts throughout the session. I would definitely trust her to watch Freya again!”

Freya K.

“Alana was once again amazing with my pup! She followed all of the instructions I left and kept me in the loop during her time with Tyson. She also sent me pictures while I was gone. I highly recommend her!”

Shani M.

“K and Izzy were instant friends and from the pictures I received Izzy clearly had a ball (literally and figuratively)! K ensured she had a romp in a park, plenty of time to play ball and lots of attention and snuggles through her day. Izzzy was contentedly snoring in her crate when I returned home. Thank you, K!”

Samata S.

“Aaron was great and easy to connect with for a day of watching our big dog. Grateful he was open to a meet and greet first and updated throughout the time he was watching our boy 🐶”

“Nicole was excellent on her services. She stayed in our apartment for a house visit and she was super respectful of the place. She was very effective in communication and I was never wondering what our dog was up to, since Nicole planned out several activities and outings. I’m 100% hoping to re-book her for any future needs.”

Manuel G.

“Camila is reliable and communicative, it’s great to get daily pictures from her when she’s stayed at our place to watch our cat and dog. Have booked her twice and will continue to in the future. Thank you Camila!”

Amelia F.

“Rachel was wonderful. She did a meet and greet which was great to get to know alabaster, my two-year-old Pomsky, and to make sure that we were a good fit. She had my dog for several days and stayed at my home to watch him and when I arrived back his nervous system was calm and he seemed so happy as though I never left at all. Would definitely have Rachel again for watching my pup alabaster. She was great at communicating but not overly communicating keeping me updated on things that seemed important and essential but yet made me feel like she was under control and could care for alabaster while I was gone.”

Barrie Rose B.

“Kathleen is AMAZING! Not only was she super thorough about getting to know our dogs and home, but she was also so kind and thoughtful during her stay. She sent us updates and pictures, and even cleaned up and washed the guest room items and towels before we arrived home! Her kindness and generosity of spirit make her one of a kind!”

Amanda M.

“Kept a close eye on my elderly dog with a heart condition. When something looked amiss, she contacted my vet and took my dog to Angel Medical. Chloe's back home, looking good.”

Michele B.

“Debbie took great care of my dogs while I was away for a week! She sent daily updates and my dogs clearly loved spending time with her. Will definitely be having her take care of them again!”

Eleanor K.

“Moose loved his night hanging with Ani! My plans were last minute, so I reached out to Ani only a few hours before needing her. She was quick to respond and very professional. She even came by before to meet Moose and learn some paticulars about him. She was very communicative and send updates often along with pictures. I felt at ease all night and loved the pictures of him. Definitely will be using Ani in the future!”

Jordan C.

“Carmen was super friendly, trustworthy and most importantly my dogs loved her! She stayed in my home for 4 days, and honestly left it cleaner than I did and I have a puppy who is potty-training! I can’t thank her enough for her flexibility and communicativeness. It means a lot to know I have someone I trust with my dogs and my home at the same time!”

Mackenzie H.

“Here’s a polished review you can use: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing Dog Sitter! We cannot recommend Paige highly enough! She went above and beyond in caring for our dog, Mochi, while we were away. Not only did she ensure Mochi was well-fed, but she also used her creativity and critical thinking to ease Mochi’s tummy troubles with thoughtful meal preparation. She took Mochi on multiple long walks daily and kept us updated with detailed messages & wonderful pictures - and was always responsive to any questions or requests that arose. On top of that, we came home to a spotless house and, most importantly, a very happy pup! It’s clear that she truly loves and understands animals, and we are so grateful for the care and attention she provided. We would absolutely trust her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and compassionate dog sitter. Thank you, Paige, for everything!”

About: I've grown up around dogs my entire life and have owned my current terrier mix Lemon for the past five years, since adopting her from a rescue in TX. She's dog-reactive on leash, so I’ve developed strong skills in reading dog body language, managing difficult situations calmly, and avoiding triggers and other dogs to keep her safe and comfortable. I bring that same level of attentiveness and care to every dog I walk or sit for. As a U.S. Army veteran, I'm reliable, detail-oriented, and take safety seriously—your dog’s well-being is always my top priority. I tailor every walk or visit to meet each dog's individual needs, whether they’re energetic puppies, seniors who need a gentler pace, or dogs that need space from others. I have a passion for animals and love dogs of all sizes and breeds! No matter what, you can count on me to treat your dog like my own (and my dog is treated like a family member, not just a pet)! I'm currently on a sabbatical from my full-time corporate finance job, which allows me the flexibility to focus entirely on pet care during the week. I'm available for house-sitting, walks, and drop-in visits at nearly any time Monday through Friday. While I'm usually unavailable on weekends, I'm happy to accommodate with advance notice whenever possible. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine, and I truly enjoy giving dogs the attention, structure, and companionship they need throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I always follow your instructions closely, whether it’s feeding, administering medication, reinforcing training, or sticking to a specific walk schedule. I take time to get to know each dog’s personality so I can provide the kind of care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and happy in their own environment. During house-sitting stays, I also keep the home tidy and secure—bringing in mail, taking out trash, and providing updates with photos so you have peace of mind while you're away. I’m respectful of your space and treat it like my own. For walks and drop-in visits, I make sure your pet gets quality time, attention, and exercise tailored to their energy level and temperament. Whether it’s a brisk walk or some backyard playtime, I focus on safety, companionship, and clear communication with you every step of the way.

“Melissa was great! The dogs were happy campers, the house was spotless, and she was a great communicator! We'll definitely book again when we have a need.”

“We were so happy to have Devika stay in our home with our dog Lucy while we attended a wedding! Devika was very responsive and sent lots of photos of Lucy which I appreciated. She was available on short notice and left our house in great shape. Thank you Devika!!”

Ashley W.

“Traci is calm, kind, and reliable. We are so grateful to have found her. Such peace of mind.”

Judy W.

“Donna is amazing with our 3 year old pup. Despite our dog’s high energy, Donna approaches him with the calmest vibe and has made him feel safe, secure and loved while we have taken vacations. Highly recommend Donna for home stays and for dog walking, she is the best!!!”

Katie S.

“Alejandro is amazing!!!! He took care of our kitties while we were gone over Thanksgiving. We would always get pictures of the cats throughout the day. Our house was so clean too when we got back! He is nice and responsible and we are so happy to have someone we can trust with our cats. Look no further for someone to books for your pets! They will be well cared for.”

Laura D.

“Sarah was absolutely amazing! We needed last minute coverage due to a scheduling change and Sarah stepped in to provide a great experience for our little pup, Heidi. She was extremely attentive to Heidi’s schedule and overall needs. Highly recommend Sarah for any future sitting needs. We will definitely be looking to work with Sarah in the future.”
