About: Hi There! As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that your pets deserve exceptional care when you can't be there. I've personally owned dogs, cats, rabbits, lizards, snakes, various fish, and even a hedgehog. I treat every pet as if they were my own and can provide the specialized care they need to feel safe and happy. 🐕 Dogs - Daily walks, playtime, feeding, and all the belly rubs they deserve 🐱 Cats - Feeding, litter box care, cuddles, and play time 🐰 Rabbits - Proper feeding, habitat maintenance, and pets (only if they like it) 🦎 Reptiles - Temperature monitoring, feeding, and habitat care 🐠 Fish - Feeding and basic tank maintenance I have a flexible schedule that can be adapted to your pets needs, whether that's midday walks or multiple daily check-ins. Just let me know what you are looking for and we can work together to schedule a time. I can help maintain your pet's normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I'll follow your feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special instructions as you've outlined.
“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!”

“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!”

“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!”

“Katherine was genuinely kind with my cat such that my cat became friend with her so quickly and completely. Also, Katherine followed my instructions accurately which made me confident that my cat had a great visit.”

“Emma was excellent! Communication was great from the jump — she reached out right away and even scheduled a meet-and-greet. My cat loved her instantly (he even let her scratch his belly, which never happens!). She asked all the right questions, including things I hadn’t even thought of. She’s incredibly attentive, detail-oriented, punctual, flexible, and truly trustworthy. I felt completely at ease leaving my fur baby in her care. Would recommend her 100%!🙏🏻🩵”

About: Hi there! I’m Taiya, a dedicated dog lover and experienced pet sitter based in Boston. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of owning four wonderful dogs, each with their own unique personality. This personal experience has given me a deep understanding of what it takes to keep a dog happy, healthy, and loved. From a young age, I’ve always had a special connection with dogs. Whether it’s taking long walks, playing fetch, or simply cuddling on the couch, I genuinely enjoy every moment spent with them. My passion for animals drives me to provide the best care possible, ensuring that your pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to get to know their individual personalities and needs. Whether your dog is high-energy and loves a good run or prefers a relaxed pace, I’m here to tailor my care to fit their routine. Choosing me as your dog sitter means peace of mind for you and a wonderful experience for your furry friend. I offer dog sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking services. With me, your dog will not only be cared for but will also have a great time! Let’s connect and discuss how I can help take care of your pet. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member soon! I’m currently a master’s student and out of class for the summer, which gives me the flexibility and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pup! When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I make sure to stick to your pet’s usual schedule, including feeding, walking, and playtime, while also providing extra companionship and care. I pay close attention to any special instructions you provide, whether it’s specific dietary needs or any other personalized care. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved, no matter where they are.
About: I bring a calm, reliable, and highly attentive approach to pet care—shaped not just by helping friends and neighbors, but by raising my own very happy, well-loved Goldendoodle. I understand firsthand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I’m naturally detail-oriented, so I stick closely to routines, feeding schedules, and each pet’s unique personality. Whether your dog needs long walks and playtime or a more relaxed, steady presence, I adapt to what makes them feel most comfortable. I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and notes so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for—and you get complete peace of mind while you’re away. Not currently working so available to look after 24/7 and at home most of the time. They’ll be with me a lot of the time! My chilled goldendoodle makes even the most nervous of dogs feel comfortable. I have an unfenced yard so always take the dogs out on the lead for a quick bathroom break back there when needed and then do 2-3 walks a day depending on the dogs needs/weather. I have a very dog friendly home with lots of space to play and then in the evenings it’s cuddles watching Netflix! They’re more than welcome on the bed but can also accommodate a crate if you’d prefer. My guest bathroom is all set up for doggy baths if you’d like a clean sparkly dog on your return :)

About: I grew up with 5 dogs, now have 2 at home with my parents and one of my own in Boston with me. Willing to walk and exercise dogs twice a day. I provide lots of love and care for any animal I am around, can also help with other animals in the house, if need be. Spent a summer working in a veterinary office taking care and looking after all animals, can give medications and pay special attention to the needs of dogs. Full time working professional but willing to work out any schedule needed to take care of your pets! Would love to get to spend time with dogs while I am away from mine, so always eager to take on the sitting/walking/running challenge! Also as an added bonus always willing to take cute photos of your dog and send them along to you! I am currently a full time working professional. Am available for check ins and walks as my calendar allows and it will be updated weekly. I care for my clients pets the same way I would care for my own. I always call my clients pets my pets away from home and will provide only the best exercise, care, and love that they deserve.
“Tommy did an exceptional job caring for my two fussy cats for 6 days! My cats both need medicine and extra care every day and Tommy was consistent, reliable, and a great communicator. I can tell my cats were well cared for while I was away. Thanks so much Tommy!”

“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’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 11. I’ve taken care of my own dogs, neighbors dogs, and those of family friends as well! I’m currently finishing up the school year as a fifth grade teacher and will be starting a PhD program in the Autumn, so I’m looking for work over the summer caring for dogs and cats in the mornings and afternoons. I’m available to come to your location to walk, feed, and play with your dog (or cat!). I have a skittish cat, so my home isn’t available for boarding or dog/cat-sitting, but I am more than happy to come to your home to check on, feed, walk, give medicine, or play with your pet!
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in North Dorchester is $25

Madeline was amazing!!! She helped me out last minute with my puppy and gave me such peace of mind being able to come. She was incredibly attentive and detailed with her visit notes. She followed my over explained directions perfectly and my puppy loved her!! I would 100% book with her again, thank you Madeline :)

Anne was absolutely fantastic! From offering to stop by to meet my dog to sending thoughtful recaps of each drop in visit, she was nothing short of amazing. She was very responsive, took excellent care of my dog and even went out of her way to sweep up his loose hair in my apartment. My dog loved Anne from the second she walked in the door and really enjoyed his entire time with her. I would 1000% recommend Anne to anyone who is considering booking her for any type of service. She watched my dog over my wedding weekend, which you can imagine could be stressful. I felt completely stress free with him in her care and will definitely be reaching out to book with Anne again.

Nadia was absolutely amazing with our dog, Finn! From the moment i met her, we knew he was in great hands. She was incredibly caring, attentive, and kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Came home to Finn happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious that Nadia treated him like he was her own. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, exercised, and loved. I would recommend Nadia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely caring dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you, Nadia, for taking such wonderful care of Finn!

Ella has been taking care of Charlie for the past few months, and I feel so lucky to have found her. She is incredibly dependable, kind, and has such a gentle, caring nature. From the very beginning, she treated Charlie as if he were her own, and that means the world to me. Knowing Charlie is with someone I completely trust gives me so much peace of mind. He’s always excited to see her, and it’s clear she genuinely loves what she does. Ella is reliable, thoughtful, and always keeps me updated, which I really appreciate. I can’t recommend her highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your dog with love, patience, and genuine attention, Ella is truly wonderful.
