She made sure to ask questions before we left and was a kind, communicative and thoughtful sitter!”

About: I have had cats and dogs my entire life. I currently have a 16 year old black and white cat named Tootsie aka Baby and my daughter's cat Monkey (orange tabby in pictures) is her arch nemesis lol I have experience with cat sitting for family and friends. I am willing to help clean and take care of litter boxes and whatever other small jobs are needed. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! :) I have just recently retired from the textile industry after 53 years, I am looking to take care of cats and dogs with my newly free time. I have mostly open availability and I am able to travel to your home so your pets are more comfortable. I make sure they have clean water, food, and litterboxes daily and I show them lots of love. I have had cats and dogs my whole life.

“Hannah did a stellar job of looking after our cat over the weekend! She is courteous, professional, and reliable. As someone who feels anxious leaving my cat, Hannah made us feel at ease by sending lovely photos and detailed reports. I highly recommend her services!!”
15. Jacob S.
“Jake pet sat and house sat for us while we were away for a week. We have two dogs and one bird. One of our dogs takes medicine daily and Jake made sure before we left that he knew how to give her her medicine properly. Jake would send us updates with pictures daily which make us feel like they were taken very good care of and we didn’t have to worry. We came home and our house was in the condition we left it. I would highly recommend Jake because he’s a trustworthy person and you can tell he cares a lot about your pets while you are away.”
16. Kaely & Todd B.
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life. My family has always had at least three dogs and one cat so I am incredibly comfortable with them. I always say that my pup Marley is my son and I think of all fur babies as our children that deserve to be treated like family. I work fully remote the whole work week so can play with your pups all day long! My fiancé also works from home most of the week so if I have to run an errand, your pup wont be alone! My fiancé and I just moved into our new house in Walpole where we have a large fenced in yard. My fiancé has a German Sheppard that is extremely friendly and well trained and I have a Maltipoo that just loves to follow me around. We can have them hang out with your pet or keep them in separate parts of the house. I also allow my dog to sleep with me in bed and your pets are welcome to as well.
17. Alicia K.
“I have known Alicia for many years. She is a very caring, thoughtful, considerate and responsible person. She has watched our cats many times over the years and would come more often than expected to check to make sure she gave them more attention. She always handled the duties we asked of her thoroughly. I know her family has dogs which she cares for as well. I think she will make a wonderful addition to your team.”
18. EUGENE D.
“Gene is a lifelong animal lover. A former Marine and retired policeman. Worked for a company with his bomb sniffing dog for many years at Fed Ex, the CDC, and many large venues. He has always had dogs and cats throughout child and adulthood, He now has two beautiful, well-behaved dogs, Abby (Australian cattle dog) and Hudson (mixed breed). He will make a wonderful, responsible and loving caregiver to all pets..”
19. Jenn B.
“Jenn was quick to respond and took great care of our cat. Would book again.”
20. Brenna R.
“Brenna is the most caring and loving dog owner I have ever met. She was fantastic while taking care of our 10 week old puppy but also is great with her older dog as well, giving more attention and time when needed. She is always fun, loving, kind, patient, caring, attentive, and responsible with our dogs and I would recommend her to anyone who asks.”
