“OMG we went on vacation for three weeks and left our cat and our home in the care of Lilian, who was a rockstar. She took care of everything, followed all of our instructions and when we came home this time our cat was completely at ease. Usually when we return home from vacation, whether it's a week or longer and we have somebody stop in, we hear it from the cat for a good two weeks waking us up early in the morning rauling, but this time Bella just showed love and has been 100% normal. We would hire her again in our heartbeat. Best decision we ever made!”

“Theo took care of my four dogs, guinea pig, and chickens in my home for four days. My senior dog has health issues and he tended to him with care. All my pets were well taken care of, given plenty of attention, and happy when we returned. Theo informed me when he needed to leave for a short time and made sure the dogs were all secure in the home in their places of comfort. Theo kept me updated several times during the day and provided photos. He cleaned up after himself and my home was left as he found it. We look forward to having Theo care for our pets in the near future.”
“philip was truly an amazing sitter for us, and went above and beyond what we could have hoped for. with a last minute (read: 6 days before we had to fly out!) cancellation for medical reasons, we reached out to philip and he was super quick to respond and accommodate, as a new sitter for us. he even came over within the short timeframe to do a meet and greet with our sweet but anxious lincoln - and lincoln immediately LOVED him! first time i've ever seen our doggo warm up to a person in less than 5 minutes. i appreciated all the photo updates and check ins, and he even left linky a little lamb toy that he had brought that lincoln fell in love with. will definitely be booking again!”

“I had a last-minute adjustment to my vacation schedule and needed a sitter and found Shayna. She was super flexible and accommodating, and came to meet my dogs and learn their routine the same day! Shayna provided excellent care for my dogs who are anxious and can sometimes be difficult to care for. I would absolutely use her again for overnight services or walking anytime that we are traveling and she is available! Thank you for taking such good care of my girls💙🐶”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I have over 5 years of experience caring for animals through friends, family, and clients, and I previously volunteered with a dog rescue organization. Through these experiences, I’ve worked with dogs of different temperaments, energy levels, and behavioral needs. I have experience with puppies through senior dogs, including administering oral medications and supporting basic training and reinforcement. I also have hands-on experience working with leash manners, redirection, basic commands, and reading canine body language. I currently work full time in pet care and maintain a flexible schedule to accommodate client needs whenever possible. I intentionally organize my availability to provide reliable, consistent care and clear communication for each client and pet. I’m happy to coordinate timing in advance and do my best to accommodate different scheduling needs whenever possible. Please feel free to reach out to discuss your pet’s routine and care needs. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any specific routines to ensure consistency and comfort while you’re away. I’m attentive to behavior and body language, proactive about maintaining a safe environment, and committed to keeping pets physically secure and emotionally at ease. My goal is to provide dependable, thoughtful care so you can feel completely confident leaving your pet in my hands.
“This was our first time using Julia and we were gone for a week. She did a wonderful job taking care of our golden retriever and our home. She shared pictures, gave updates and even shared concerns when she noticed changes in our dog and worked collaboratively with us to problem solve. She went the extra mile and took care of our trash, ran the dishwasher, washed, dried and made the bed before our return, which was greatly appreciated because I hate laundry! lol. We wouldn't hesitate in having Julia come stay again in the future!”

“First time using Avery and she was wonderful! She arrived at the agreed upon time, communicated well and sent daily pictures of Ranger and Daisy. She followed instructions for feeding and engaged well with our dogs for play. When we returned our dogs were happy and had obviously been well cared for. Avery stayed at our house since our dogs do best in their own home. She left the house spotless. We will definitely book with Avery again.”

“Emily helped us out with a last-minute booking and she was great!! Emily communicated well, took great care of our pets, and is very friendly. She sent lots of pictures and updates. Thanks, Emily!”

“Nicole took such great care of all three of our furry men and our home! She provided prompt communication, pictures, and went the extra mile like brining in our trash cans, etc. at the house. Thank you Nicole!”

“Nikki is amazing. I felt 100% confident leaving my 2 pups and our home in her care. Nikki pays attention to the details, treats my dogs like royalty and left my home in tip top shape. I had Nikki stay in my home for the weekend. She did not hesitate to ask questions and confirm details. She sent photos of the pups throughout the weekend. And even made sure our flight was returning on time before she left our pups. It was such a pleasant experience we are now using her to care for our pups for 6 days. I know they are cared for and happy to be in their own home. I loved coming home and having my pups waiting for us when we walked through the door. Thank you Nikki.”

About: I grew up with black labs throughout my childhood and have recently adopted an orange tabby cat named Cheeto. I’m very comfortable taking care of both cats and dogs. I currently work remotely from South Boston which makes my schedule flexible for most hours during the week and weekends. I will have no problem making it to sitting appointments on time. I am very responsible and have taken care of my friends and family’s pets at their residence and have never misplaced a key and always leave their home as I found it.
“So happy to have found Hannah! We have a very large irish wolfhound mix rescue dog who is very anxious. Hannah did a meet and great before our initial booking and she was terrific with him. Was very patient and calm and just let him drive the meeting. While we were away, she was very communicative and provided lots of pictures which made us feel very comfortable that he was being well cared for. She did all that was asked and even had to handle meds for our pup. With her experience and comfort level I won’t hesitate calling on Hannah again to take care of our Charlie.”


“Thank you Mikayla for taking care of our little guy! Tucker is a special little Yorkie with health concerns requiring constant monitoring. Mikayla stepped up and delivered reliable excellent care. Oral medication and special dietary needs were taken care of. She communicated with us and sent pics of our guy which was a relief. We could relax and have peace of mind. Bonus, she left the house clean and tidy! We already have our next trip booked! Thank you again!”

“Jennifer did a great job staying in our home and taking care of our dog. She communicated very clearly, gave good updates (with photos), and our dog seemed happy, relaxed, and well taken care of when we returned home. We would absolutely book here again to dog and house sit”

“Maddox was a great dog sitter. The animals loved him and were very well behaved. My home was cleaner than I left it and the puppies were happy boys all day. Would definitely recommend.”

About: My name is Alyssa and it would be my pleasure to take care of your animal! I’m an experienced pet sitter. I have dogs and a cat of my own so believe that your animal is in the best care. Whatever needs your animals has I can take care of. I am serious when it comes to doing anything with making sure animals are safe and happy. I can give medication, meet your pets needs, and go the extra mile for the best care for your animal. I am currently a student and looking for a part time job, so as of now I am available through out the weekday to help check in on your pet while you’re at work, on vacation, or simply out for the day! I can do special request if needed on weekends. I do not offer boarding at my personal home, but am happy to drive to your home instead! I like to follow the instructions given to me to ensure your fur baby is the most comfortable.
About: I work full time during the day. Usually home no later than 4pm. I have a 4 yr old labradoodle that loves playing ball but is very timid and skittish so I have plenty of experience with dogs who are also the same Way. I will always make sure your dogs needs come first and treat them like my own. I have experience administering all types of medications as I have a veterinary background and have had a dog with a lot of health issues. I have experience with timid and dog reactive dogs. I currently have the Flex-ability to work from home 3x a week. As well as getting into work early and home by 2pm. Leaving lots of time to be able to enjoy the afternoon for walking not just my own dog but others as well. I will treat your pets as if they were my own. Going out for walks/potty breaks every 3-4 hours. Lots of play time and letting them get to know. It always the key to take it slow and steady. Having a rescue dog myself, we always are patient and cautious as she gets scared and skiddish of things very easily.

We loved working with Alana! She was very communicative throughout the sitting and sent plenty of pictures of our dog. Our dog Louie warmed up to Alana right away which speaks volumes about her presence. We look forward to working with Alana again in the future!

Melanie is the BEST! You can tell she is really a dog person and my fur babies LOVED her. My dogs can be really needy with attention and cuddles, and Melanie was happy to oblige. I felt so comfortable with them in her care. She was kind, responsive, and respectful. I will definitely be hiring her again!

Kristina did a fabulous job helping us out in a pinch with our dog, cat, and surprise guest (cat #2). We got in contact with Kristina on short notice and she was amazingly accommodating. She confirmed and patiently waited for my arrival on a FaceTime meet and greet call. I would not have known she was new to the service as she asked great questions and came off as seasoned and skilled. She made us feel like we could trust her from the drop and day of kept us posted with updates and photos. Our dog took to her quickly and she is someone who we would highly recommend as well as use again!
Emma was a great dog sitter. She was both communicative and diligent in sending updates. The dogs were happy and well taken care of when we got back. Emma was also very flexible and understanding about logistical challenges that came up with travel and willing to accommodate where she could. I would definitely rebook Emma again for our next trip.
