“Kimiko was great! She was very attentive to Sadie’s needs and asked good relevant questions. She sent plenty of photos and made sure she was taken care of. I didn’t have to worry about Sadie at all!”
“Thank you so much for taking care of the kitties!!! You kept me in the loop and up to date on their status and behaviors. With both kitties having medical issues and needing special care, I appreciate the attention to detail and additional time you took to make sure everything was just right. Thank you so much!!!”
“Kimberly watched my dogs over Memorial Day weekend - she was very responsive to messages and was very kind to water my plant while I was gone as well, and sent photos of the dogs when she went twice a day. We are hoping to use her again next time we go away!”
About: I have years of experience taking care of my two feline sons Tater and Tot, as well as a variety of other cats, dogs, and even a few snakes, hamsters, and goats! I understand that pets are family and know it is a privilege to take care of your fur babies. I would treat your pets with the same love and care I show towards mine. As a graduate student with remote classes, I have lots of flexibility to take care of your fur babies, whether early in the morning, late at night, or anytime in between! I know how hard it is to be to be away from your pets. I want you to know that if I have the privilege to care for your fur babies, I will treat them as if they were my own and will send you lots of photos to help put your mind at ease! I am meticulous about cleaning up after pets, will monitor their food intake and hydration, and will provide lots of opportunities for socialization, exercise, and play! I will also keep you posted on their daily health behaviors and will carefully follow any instructions you provide.
“Kaylie cared for our 2 cats while we were away. One of the cats has epilepsy and requires oral medication twice a day. Kaylie was able to give him his meds without any issues. Kaylie gained the trust of my cats quickly. By the end of the second day, one of my cats rolled over for belly rubs which is his sign that he accepts and trusts a person. I’m thankful that Kaylie watched our cats and I will have her watch them again.”
“Jennifer was wonderful to have as a sitter. She sent lots of cute photos of our dogs and sent very detailed summaries at each drop-in visit. If you’re looking for a reliable and responsive sitter, Jennifer is for you!”
“Above and beyond! I’m glad Kelly was able to pet sit because she was great. Took good care of Sophie and even handled a little unexpected issue with the sink while I was away. So happy with her. :) Gracias”
“Melissa was so professional and took the utmost care of Princess. Communication was timely and it was lovely to see daily photos of Princess enjoying herself and well taken care of. She was also very accommodating to Princess's walking needs/time outside. I'm extremely grateful Melissa was able to provide excellent service and care of Princess while I was away.”
“Amanda is great and her help is much appreciated. I am again so sorry for the house alarm going off for so long. Nala appreciates your love as well and she does love butt scratches. Thanks again!”
About: I adopted my first dog, Chilli, in 2000. Since then, I’ve had the joy of rescuing and raising Ruby, Beatrice, and Porkchop. 5 year old Lucy is a part of our family now! We love welcoming new friends for visits. We have a fully fenced backyard, plenty of space for playing, napping, and cuddling, and we’re located in a neighborhood made for long, leisurely walks. I also enjoy taking photos and am happy to send you updates as often (or as little) as you’d like. Schedule a meet-and-greet with us! We can’t wait to meet you! On the days I work from home and on weekends, we would love to have a dog-friend join us for the day, or for an overnight. If we’re somewhat neighbors, I am also available for walks over the weekend and possibly on weeknight(s). I have a fenced-in yard, home security, smoke and CO alarm. I do not crate our dog Lucy, but if you need me to do so for your dog, consider it done! I walk her in her harness around safe neighborhoods like Oak Hill in Pawtucket and on the East Side of Providence. I refrain from dog parks because I feel she is more comfortable with one on one play, but if there is a certain park you'd like me to take your dog to, I'd be happy to.
“Delaney was amazing! I came home and Tiki was happy!She also cleaned up and made sure my apartment looked nice! I will definitely use her again! She will be my go-to pet sitter for Tiki! Thank you Delaney!! 🙏💖”
“Kristine took wonderful care of our cats while we were away. She was consistent in the time each day that she came to visit them and made sure they always had adequate food and water. She had no trouble applying medication to one of our cats, who is notoriously difficult. She played with them and even made her own cat toy when she couldn't find ours. She communicated clearly and frequently and sent pictures that we appreciated very much. I highly recommend Kristine and would not hesitate to use her services again!”
About: I have grown up with pets around me, and always had both cats and dogs as a child. I currently live with two dogs, one of whom I am the primary provider for. I have ample experience with walking, feeding, bathing and coordinating her vet visits and administering medication. I live in the Oak Hill neighborhood of Pawtucket. I drive and am happy to provide services to the surrounding areas & neighborhoods. I currently have a part-time job, therefore my availability is pretty flexible. I am able to provide dog walking, and drop in visits throughout the week, as well as house sitting/overnight stays. Sunday & Monday are days when I have complete availability. I have a fenced in yard and wrap around porch. I currently have two dogs in the house, therefore your pets would have to be dog friendly if they were to stay at my home.
“This is who you want taking care of your pets. Dependable and takes his time giving them some company while you’re away. Sends you several pics of them so you can check in. Will definitely be booking Gerard again.”
About: Growing up on a farm I have been surrounded by small to large furry friends and I would love to spend time with yours! I love taking furry friends on adventures or sitting on the couch giving them all the attention. I have experience giving oral medication and vet visits and routine day to day care. I am currently working full time for a non-profit Monday-Friday. I am free to love your pet before work and after, and to take them on their adventures, routine and cuddles. I am free weekends for house sitting and everything that was previously mentioned! Depending on your time and availability I would love to meet and greet you and your furry friend and get to know them beforehand. I understand the individuality and differing personality of each pet; I would love to give them the best care for your pet.
About: I have been an animal lover since youth. I have been a caregiver to animals for over 4 years now. I have taken care of pets, big or small, or all ages. Also experience in diabetic care and medication administration for dogs! I work full time, but I am available for mid day walks and check ins or in the evening hours. Also available all day on weekends. I treat and care for your pets as if they were my own. I am very safe, practical, and efficient when it comes to walks, crating, and also ensuring that your home is locked up correctly and in the same condition as I found it.
