About: I have taken care of multiple dogs and cats throughout my life. I am a huge animal person. My family always has said I have a special bond with animals they always love me! I’d love to watch your pets during my time off! I am very consistent, timely and respectful. I also love taking pictures/photography and have some cameras so they may become my model and you may receive a couple cute pictures of your pet! I am currently not working as I am searching for a job after graduating from my masters program! So I have lots of time on my hands. I’ll give your pet lots of love and care. I will listen to any reccomendations or specifications from their parents to best support and comfort them on their days alone.
“Belen kept us updated with photos and videos when she checked on our cat Paddington while we were away. She was very responsive and Paddington seemed to like her a lot. We are very grateful!”

“Yasmin was an amazing cat sitter! She communicated quickly, was super flexible, and did a great job administering my cat’s asthma inhaler, which isn’t always easy. She also sent lots of pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely book with her again!”

“Paul was communicative, attentive, compassionate, caring. He was everything I could wish for in a cat sitter!! We would highly recommend him and look forward to working with him again!”

“Katherine took care of my two cats when I was out of town for a weekend. We had a meet and greet beforehand. She was very responsive and communicative about her visits. Even though I had no preference over timing, every morning she let me know what time she would stop by. After every visit she sent pictures and a written note of how the cats behaved and what food she gave them or what toys she had them play with. She was super patient with my shy kitten, who was getting over an upset tummy at the time. She gave him the probiotics as instructed and managed to get pictures even when he hid under the bed, and by day three he had warmed up to her! I definitely felt she took care of them as if they were her own cats, would book her again without a doubt.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 14 for family, friends, and for friends of friends. I absolutely love all animals and would be thrilled to care for your pets and to treat them like my own I currently WFH full time. I have availability in the mornings and evenings as well as during lunch breaks and the occasional odd hours during the day given some notice. I am also available on the weekends. I live in an apartment where pets are certainly welcome for visits for shorter periods of time, but unfortunately it isn’t the best space for overnight stays. When it comes to your home, I am more than happy to follow any and all special rules or routines you and your pet have!
“Chandler was so great! She gave Louie lots of love and attention, and was even kind enough to bring in my HelloFresh box. Would definitely rebook with her in the future.”

“Owen was very communicative, highly dependable, and did an amazing job with the cat visits. I highly recommend him and would definitely seek him out again in future”


About: I have had dogs and been around dogs and cats my whole life! Love to take care of them and watch them. I have experience with pets of all ages and would love to help out in any way I can! I have dog sat many time before for friends and family! I work from home a few days of the week and have a flexible schedule to walk dogs. I also have lots of availability on the weekends as well! I am very gentle and caring with the pets I take care of. It’s important that the pet can trust you and listen to your authority when needed. Befriending the animal is super important so they feel safe!

“Jaci was the best. She was so sweet with our girl, and able to help take crew out and feed her while we were out at a wedding. Will be using her again! Could not recommend more. Communicative and you can tell she loves the animals she care for!”

“Samantha has been amazing. From our initial meet and greet to multiple visits with my kitten, she has been thoroughly communicative, polite, and professional. She has great attention to detail and went above and beyond in providing updates. She even put the cat food away neater than I had left it for her. As a first time pet parent, I felt very comforted that my cat was in kind and safe hands. Beyond feeding, I mainly wanted a companion for my kitten as she is young, and Samantha played with all her favorite toys with her. I’d trust her with anyone’s pet, and I can’t wait to use her services again. Thank you Samantha!”


About: I used to have two dogs and a cat along with many other random animals. Have always loved pets, just not in a place to have my own at the moment but would love to help others! I work full time, but I am available at night and on the weekends to help out with your furry friends! We can work together to find a schedule that works for both of us. I live in a one bedroom apartment in a managed building. It is a very pet friendly building and has a fenced in area for dogs. We also have a grooming station.
“Ainsley was so great! I immediately felt comfortable with her taking care of my baby because it was obvious she cares and her communication was great. So grateful!”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with 13+ years of experience caring for my own German Shepherd–Retriever mix, Max. I’m energetic, active, and love long walks and playtime with younger dogs, while also having experience providing gentle care for Princess a senior dog. Reliable, attentive, and caring, I’ll treat your dog like family. 🐾 I work flexible hours and am available for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and overnight care. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine and needs, and I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care while you’re away. 🐾 I have a spacious, dog-friendly townhouse with a backyard where dogs can relax and play. My own dog, Max, spends the summer with his other human, so your pet will have plenty of space and attention. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including crating if needed, to help them feel safe and comfortable during their stay.
About: Hey there – my name is Nancy, and I’ve taken care of dogs the majority of my life. Starting with my childhood dog, Bandit, a mixed Shepard. As an adult I had a pit bull/boxer mix, Vedder. I had Vedder for 12 years. After Vedder, I had a beagle/boxer mix, Killian. I currently do not have a dog of my own. This gives me plenty of time to take care of your dog I am an experienced sitter, and did walker who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. I’m currently not working. This gives me plenty of time to spend with your pet. I’m available both days and nights to watch, walk or play with your dog. To ensure the safety and well-being of pets under my care, I would first familiarize myself with each pet’s specific needs, behaviors, and any medical conditions. This includes understanding their diet, exercise routine, allergies, or medications they may be on. During walks, I would keep them on a leash at all times. Moreover, for both walks and sitting sessions, I’d maintain regular communication with the pet owners by providing updates and promptly reporting any unusual behavior. Maintaining vigilance, open communication, and being prepared for unexpected situations are crucial aspects of ensuring the safety and well-being of pets under my care. I am not a certified dog trainer, but I did successfully train my pit bull/boxer, Vedder, and my beagle/boxer, Killian. When you board your dog with me, you can expect a quality stay. Your dog will not only be well looked after, they will go on some cool walking adventures. I’m located near three beaches, and three parks. One of the parks has a bike/walking path. I keep the owner updated with pics and text. I also use a walking app that shows where we walked, how far we walked and how long we walked. When you leave your dog in my care, you can enjoy your vacation knowing that your dog is also having fun.
“We had just moved to Boston and needed a needed a dog-sitter on short notice for our Great Dane pup, Gordon, and David crushed it! He is super-patient and confident with our big boy and expertly communicative. David will always be our “go to!””

“Wen graciously accepted my last minute booking after my partner needed to leave town and I had a 24hr shift at work. It was such a relief knowing my dogs were in good hands while I was working. She always sent multiple photos and made sure to hangout with them so they wouldn’t get too lonely. I will definitely book with Wen again!”

Josh is a rockstar! This was his second time doing drop-in visits with my shy cat, and within a few days she was greeting him as he arrived and accepting not just pets but also brushing from him, which is astonishing for her! He’s clearly perfectly attuned to what cats need to feel safe and comfortable and I’ll be thrilled to have him watch my girl in the future.
