“Shuhua helped us out in a pinch last minute to board our dog same night, and we are so happy with the attentiveness shown - it doesn't get much better for our shy and sleepy greyhound girlie than an elevator to avoid the scary stairs, a soft couch, lovingly-shared boiled chicken and peeled apples, and a fresh new green space she gets to sniff around. We've already booked a second day due to our needs, and will absolutely reach out again in the future if needed! So glad to establish a connection to a nearby sitter that is so comfortable for our pet.”
“Alan was so helpful in accommodating our last minute drop-off and pick-up schedule changes. We were provided updates with accompanying pictures of Murphy throughout our entire trip and felt he was in good hands. We would love to have Murphy be a repeat client. Thank you for all your help and for taking such good care of our guy.”
“We left our lab-beagle mix with Faith for about 10 days. Our dog, while very sweet at home, can be a handful at walks since she can be very stubborn when she sniffs food, and is also easily freaked out by bikes etc.. She took immediately to Faith, and Faith took amazing care of her, handling her well on walks, giving her cuddles, keeping her company all day long, having her even sleep in her bed, and letting her use the fenced in yard. It was a great relief to have her so well taking care of while we were travelling, much less stressful for her than boarding her at a kennel would have been. I can highly recommend Faith!”
“Hi my Milo had a great time with Natalie. She was sweet and caring and booked us last minute when we really needed it! I would reach out to Natalie again any time! Thank you Natalie you were awesome!”
“Rebecca is absolutely wonderful and we are so lucky we found her to help take care of our dog Winnie when we were out of town. She went out of her way making sure Winnie felt loved and took great care of her for us. She kept in touch with us and we did not worry for a second knowing Winnie was in great hands. I cannot recommend Rebecca enough!”
“Tina was wonderful with my dog. She was very attentive, sending lots of updates. She was very flexible when I had to change my pick up time. My dog had lots of friends to play with in the fenced yard. I will not hesitate to book with her again!”
About: Dogs have always been a special part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy caring for them and making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and quirks. I have experience with rescue dogs (have two of my own!) who often come with "trust issues." I value time with senior dogs, too. They are our teachers. Whether your pup needs a good walk, some playtime, companionship, or simply a little extra love while you're away, I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to treat them like they’re my own. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your dog is in caring, capable hands. I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have excellent daily availability for pet care. My flexible schedule allows me to be present throughout the day for walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of attention. I’m able to easily work pet care into my everyday routine and give your pup the time and care they need. I provide a loving, attentive, and comfortable environment where dogs can feel at home. I have a friendly 2-year-old dog of my own and a crate available if your pup is crate-trained or needs some quiet time. While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, my home abuts beautiful walking trails that dogs love to explore. I’m happy to provide plenty of walks, playtime, companionship, and individual attention based on each dog’s needs and routine.

About: I’m a caring cat and dog mom with lifelong experience with pets. I have a 3 year old cat and a 2 year old dog, who are my whole world. I love playing with energetic puppies and kittens, and I also have experience caring for sweet senior dogs, having grown up with two dogs with my parents. I’m a private music teacher with a flexible schedule and currently spend most of my time at home. Your pet will have plenty of company, supervision, and attention throughout the day. I provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and personalized care based on each pet’s routine. I’m available for boarding, drop-in visits, and dog walks throughout the week, including weekends and holidays, and I’m always happy to accommodate your pet’s needs whenever possible. I live with my husband, a friendly 2-year-old Bichpoo, and a calm, gentle cat. Our home is filled with cozy beds, toys, and treats for both cats and dogs. We’re also within walking distance of a dog park, making it easy to give dogs extra exercise and outdoor fun if that’s something they enjoy. We vacuum twice a day and mop every other day to keep our home clean, safe, and comfortable. Your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and personalized care, so they can feel relaxed, happy, and right at home.
“Xiaoyuan and William were the best. I was out on a business trip and they were able to board my Shiba Inu Bolt. Because they had another Sheebs in the house, they were already aware of the quirks of owning the breed but sure it would have been translatable to other breeds. They were very communicative and provided a lot of updates throughout. I highly recommend them.”
“I had the best experience with Stephanie watching my Samoyed . She has a very loving and caring disposition and kept me updated the entire time with pictures. I knew my dog was in the best care and I’m so grateful to have connected with her over this app. I highly recommend her .”

“Miranda was so wonderful with Charlie! She sent me so many cute photos and videos while I was away and I could tell he was having the time of his life! Would recommend her in a heartbeat!”
“Kimberly and Brian were wonderful! They took sent lots of updates and pictures of my pup and took great care of him. With a senior dog who has to take medication morning and night, it was a relief to have him in such good friends. And he and their dog, Lola, became buds by the end of it. Would absolutely recommend them!”
“Zelun was so good with our dog. We will definitely be using zelun in the future. He sent lots of photos and had great communication. He also brought Iggy on many adventures each day like the park and nice walks!”
“Sara went above and beyond in caring for my Abby for more than a week. Abby has severe separation anxiety but she really enjoyed her stay with Sara and was a happy, calm dog when I picked her up today. Sara is great!”
About: I have two years of experience working at a dog shelter in Bolivia, where I helped care for dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ve also grown up with dogs at home, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I love spending time with dogs, taking them on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved. I’ve even taught my own dogs different tricks, so I’m very patient and enjoy working with dogs and helping them learn. Now that I’m living in Boston, I’d love to help other dog owners care for their pups and treat them like my own! My schedule is very flexible outside of classes. I have classes Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 4–10 PM, but I’m available before those times and have much more flexibility on Tuesdays, Fridays, and weekends. I especially enjoy weekend pet sitting because I can spend plenty of time with your dog and give them the attention, walks, playtime, and company they need. I live in a cozy, clean apartment where pets can relax and feel comfortable. While I don’t have a yard, I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise and fresh air with regular walks around the city and Boston Common. I always follow each owner’s routine and instructions, keep dogs safely leashed outside, and make sure they get lots of attention, playtime, and affection while they’re with me.
“Samantha was so easy to work with and took great care of my senior small pup. I appreciated all of the photos and updates! I like how private Samantha's house is and how big the yard is. Thanks Samantha!”

Julie is fantastic!! We were a little nervous boarding our dog as he usually stays with family when we are away. Julie immediately put our concerns to rest. She is so caring and knowledgeable, and she sent us daily updates with photos and videos of Cooper. She was also very accommodating when our flight home was cancelled due to bad weather. We can't recommend her highly enough!!
We left our lab-beagle mix with Faith for about 10 days. Our dog, while very sweet at home, can be a handful at walks since she can be very stubborn when she sniffs food, and is also easily freaked out by bikes etc.. She took immediately to Faith, and Faith took amazing care of her, handling her well on walks, giving her cuddles, keeping her company all day long, having her even sleep in her bed, and letting her use the fenced in yard. It was a great relief to have her so well taking care of while we were travelling, much less stressful for her than boarding her at a kennel would have been. I can highly recommend Faith!
Rudy stayed with Minglu and Yulin for 7 days to board while we were on vacation. He was well loved and cared for. I got updates everyday, sometimes multiple times a day with pics of him having a ball with his friends. He also looked and smelled great when I picked him up!
Our dog just had a wonderful stay with Maria and John! They are very caring people who immediately welcomed Fenway into their home. I was most impressed with their communication while we were away, and with their focus on Fenway’s safety when he was being watched by them!
Debbie took great care of our dog, Sam recently. She has such a sweet and calm nature that put Sam at ease and she shared pics of Sam so we could see how he was doing. I was really impressed that she even played one of Sam’s favorite games with him, which I know made Sam happy as it did us as well.
Lauren was awesome! She made sure Archie felt comfortable the second he arrived and allowed him time to adjust to his new environment. Her and her family walked Archie, provided lots of attention to him, and he had the added bonus of playing with their dog Ollie. You can tell they really cared for him. Highly recommend.
My dog Bhalu was very happy living with Giovanni his dog -Neron as well his family. In fact he learned a lot from Neron. They played at their backyard and became friends. Giovanni poured out tremendous love on Bhalu. I would recommend anyone who wants boarding for their dog to go to Giovanni.
