“Lauren did a great job taking care of my pup, who is very shy and anxious. Lauren was patient and gentle and allowed time for my pup to warm up. She sent lots of updates so I had peace of mind while I was away.”


“Lori was great with Mocha and Ezzy! We just moved into our new place in Worcester and we felt very at ease with Lori watching over them. Thank you again! -M&N”


“Ace did a fantastic job with our busy puppy! She kept us updated and sent many pictures of our happy dog. The house was left in great condition! We would certainly use Ace again any time and recommend her 100#. Thank you, Ace for a great job. You put our minds at ease.”


“Bryana has spent a lot of time with my dog, Winnie. Winnie is a 60-pound shepherd mix, and is a very anxious girl which results in a lot of leash reactivity. Bryana has always been very loving and compassionate towards Winnie despite her behavioral issues, and is very patient and calm with her. Winnie loves Bryana deeply and I would recommend Bryana to anyone looking for a loving caregiver for their pet.”

“Ash was a GREAT house and pup took care of Whitney for 10 days while we were away with tons of walks, meals and treats, cuddles and rubs and overnight stays, long walks and visits with her best dog friend, and even handled a contractor visit and an appliance installation! Both our home and our pup were in great shape when we got back- would recommend Ash for six stars if i could.”


“Colin was amazing and took very good care of our dogs over a weekend while we were out of town. He was very detailed in capturing all the information about our dogs during his first visit before we left. He captured thorough notes and asked lots of questions while getting to know the dogs and took the time to meet them and walk them multiple times before we left. While we were gone, he kept us updated every day, even if it was just a "they are doing great" text and a picture. Colin is very responsive and we will definitely be asking him to watch our dogs again!”


“Anthony is great with animals especially dogs he has owned and cared for dogs as small as a French Bull dog to large Cane Corso. He is great with all different kinds of temperaments and overall a very caring individual.”


“Matt was great- took good care of our pup while we were away for the weekend and sent pics each day we were away. He left our home clean, stripped the bed, and even shoveled our driveway when we got snow while we were gone! Recommended! Would definitely use Matt again.”


“Violet is so sweet and my dog took an immediate liking to her. I had someone cancel last minute and Violet saved the day. She was responsive, sent fun pictures each day, and left my home immaculate. I highly recommend her!”


“Molly is a caring and responsible pet sitter. She was very kind to my dog as well easy to communicate with. She is very reliable!”

About: I’ve been a veterinary assistant for a year, and I’ve pet sat for many. I’m currently studying animal science at UMass Amherst as I work to become a veterinarian. I have a very open class schedule on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so I have plenty of free time to spend walking and caring for your dogs! I like to build trust with the pets I take care of before doing anything else. I let them sniff their sniffs and investigate anything they want before petting them or trying to put them on a leash.

“Derek was very responsive and very flexible with how short-notice our request was. Was willing to learn about cat asthma and how to handle it if an attack occurred, which we greatly appreciated as that was a major concern for us. Overall very chill and got some great photos!”


“Erin was wonderful! She filled in at the last minute, which we really appreciated! She was great with Bessie and Bo, and she sent us updates! Definitely gave us peace of mind that our pets (and our house) were in good hands! We look forwards to having Erin stay with Bessie and Bo again in the future!”


“Absolutely wonderful, Sky took great care of our two pups and the house while we were gone. Very punctual and professional. Sky kept us up to date with lots of wonderful pictures and videos on walks and playing around. Couldn't have asked for anything more than that!”



“I'm embarrassed that this is so late. I wrote my review but didn't paste it here!! Senior brain. Cat is the best house/ pet sitter I've ever had! All of the animals got loads of attention. They were happy to see me but my Bichon kept going back to Cat to touch bases with her! That is a first for my dog who suffers separation anxiety. Cat went above and beyond.... cleaning things up, and leaving the house better than it was when I left. I'm hooked!!!! Cat is fabulous!!!”


“Amber is AMAZING. I have 4 large dogs with all different personalities and she handled them all. She was in constant communication, would send videos and pics. It's so hard to find a trustworthy dog sitter but I felt 100% comfortable with her and my dogs love her. She truly went above and beyond!! And left my house cleaner than how I left it!!”


“Zan has always been very attentive and engaging with my cat! Beyond making sure she is well taken care of, he cares a lot about developing the bond between them as well.”

“Joshua was absolutely wonderful. Normally our dogs prefer female sitters but after the initial meet and greet we knew that Joshua would be an excellent fit. He went above and beyond and it felt like our dogs had their own little staycation. He kept us updated on everything that was going on and sent plenty of photos. It’s clear that he genuinely loves animals. We may need to start planning vacations around Joshua’s availability.”


“Maya has been amazing when it comes to walking and petsitting of our dog Waylon! She’s reliable, compassionate, and truly cares for our dog, as if he were her own. When I need a pet sitter, I know I can trust Maya to take care of Waylon the way we do, with love and attention. Maya’s professionalism and genuine love for animals make her the perfect choice for anyone looking for a dedicated and responsible pet caregiver.”

“Maggie was a delight to have watching our dogs while we were away. Very responsible, communicative and genuinely cares for the animals. I highly recommend as this is the 3rd river sitter i had and she is by far the best. Will definitely be using her again.”
