“Lauren took excellent care of our energetic dog. She was patient with our detailed instructions and kept in good touch while we were gone. We will definitely book her again in the future.”

“Natalie is terrific! She pet and house sat for my two cats and one dog. I’d just recently adopted the pup, who was still very nervous around people she didn’t know. Natalie had incredible patience with her - gave her lots of space and care, and my pup finally came around. She was also great with my cats. Natalie is responsive with communication and reliable, brings experience to her work, and asks questions if something isn’t clear. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“We were very happy with Hannah. She got on really well with both of our dogs and they seemed really comfortable with her. She was a lovely person and we would definitely recommend her. She kept us in touch with how everything was going and sent us nice photos.”


“Kristin is fabulous- great communication, thoughtful, kind. I just got home and everything is perfect and tidy and the pets are happy and healthy. Highly recommended.”

“Ash was wonderful with my anxious dog Charlie! Ash was so sensitive to reading Charlie's needs, took things slow, and within 24 hours they were fast friends! Ash was extremely communicative, providing multiple updates and pictures throughout the day. He took Charlie to his favorite dog park, and now we're going to pursue training with Ash to work on Charlie's confidence. The house was beautifully looked over as well. Cannot recommend enough across the board, but particularly if you have special needs dogs or a puppy who is anxious/with behavioral challenges.”

About: Whatever your doggo needs, I'm there for it! I have pet-sit for puppies, dogs, and aging/sick dogs with delicate needs. I'm dependable and I love going for walks! I'm currently a grad school student getting my Master's in Library and Information Science. I'm not working apart from school, so I have a flexible schedule for pet care! I live in a small apartment so unfortunately cannot care for pets in my own home. However, I am in close distance to many great walking areas and have a car I'm happy to get as muddy as need be.
“Jaclyn was amazing! She gave us updates throughout the weekend and left the house even better than we left it. Loki warmed up to her and she understood the process for getting a Shiba to accept you into their pack. I would absolutely recommend Jaclyn to anyone!”

“We had a great experience with Lori house sitting our American Bully & Pit mix. Lori asked questions ahead of time, reviewed our instructions, and sent us text and photo updates. We couldn't have asked for anything more. We really appreciated all of her communication.”
About: I have been around dogs for 20 years. I have pet sat for old dogs who can’t really walk any more. I also have worked with younger puppies. I am currently a college student. During the semester I can do most weekends, and can do morning and night shifts during the weekdays. Once the summer starts I can do all days. I am good at following owners instructions. If dogs need crated or need training I am capable of doing that. I also can walk dogs and keep them safe.
“Erica did a wonderful job. In all areas she gets an A+. Both of our dogs were well-cared for and happy when we returned, and our house was in the same shape that we left it in. She kept us informed with both texts and pictures, and responded promptly to all of our texts. Erica has a nice personality and is very easy to work with. She has a good attitude toward people and pets. Clearly, she gets along easily with dogs. We can recommend her highly.”
“Kiersten is very easy to communicate with and took great care of my dog, Luna. She sent me lots of pictures of their time together and was very flexible when our plans changed. I would definitely hire her again.”


About: Ive been caring for pets for many years. I had a dog walking business over a decade ago. We taken care of our own and others elderly dogs. We like taking dogs on long off leash walks in groups if possible. Dogs are always welcome to cuddle up on the furniture. Im a stay at home-mom, homeschooling. We go to play groups and trips but we can plan our day around dog walks. We take the dogs out first thing in the morning on leash as our yard isnt fenced. We are happy to come feed kitties and water plants. We love taking dogs out on walks and caring for them in our home. We love going on long walks mid day out in nature
“Sarah took care of our cat for four days at our house while we were away. He has to be given medication at certain times during the day and also loves human attention. Sarah was caring and responsible, spent time hanging out with him, and made sure he got his meals and medicine at the right times. She also checked in with us, asked good questions, and responded quickly when we checked in with her. We hope to hire Sarah again, and highly recommend her for petsitting and housesitting.”

About: I am responsive and communicative, which helps alleviate any unnecessary anxieties while I am taking care of your dog. I have experience working with dogs of all ages and of all different sizes. I work hard to address any particular needs that your dog or cat may have. While I work full-time, I have the flexibility of working from home — which means I can easily step away throughout the day to tend to your pet's needs. I'm available for check-ins and care during the early morning, midday, and evening, and if your pet thrives on consistent company, I'm happy to work out of your home so they're never left alone for long. I pride myself on following instructions carefully and will always keep you in the loop if any questions or concerns arise during our time together. Above all, your pet's comfort is my priority — before anything else, I take the time to understand their unique needs, personality, and preferences so I can provide the best care possible. Every pet is different, and I'm happy to adapt my approach accordingly. Got an energetic pup who lives for long walks and belly rubs? I'm all in. Have a shy or sensitive pet who needs a calm, quiet environment to feel safe? I'll match their energy and give them the gentle, patient care they need to feel at ease.
“Rick does such a good job giving my dog the activity and attention she needs while I’m away! I feel confident leaving my home and dog in their care knowing both will be well taken care of!”

About: I may not have a bunch of years of pet care like others on this app, but one thing I know is that I truly LOOVE pets. I’m patient, dependable, and eager to learn while giving pets the attention, affection, and respect they deserve. I grew up with 2 dogs and 3 cats and I can confidently say I loved them and deeply cared for them while I had them. Now I wish to spread my love and care to other pets.❤️ With college starting, I have class from 9am-2pm, I’m available most days and have a flexible schedule. I have swim practices at night Monday through thursday, but outside of that I’m free and happy to dedicate my time to caring for pets. I take safety and trust very seriously. I follow pet owners’ instructions carefully, keep environments clean and calm, and make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and treated with patience and respect at all times.

About: I’m an out of state student from Texas looking for extra work! I’m hardworking, reliable, and empathetic- when I commit to a job, you can count on me consistently. I’ve done lots of pet sitting/dog walking throughout western MA, and I’m experienced with following specific care routines for pets with health concerns. I have two dogs at home, so I truly understand the importance of dependable care and regular communication! I am currently a student, so I’ve found pet sitting/dog walking to work great for my routine. My on campus job is in short shifts, so I wouldn’t need to be away for extended periods of time if I am pet sitting. I find it very important that even if the owners are away and their pets are very active, they should remain active and stick to their routines. Making sure they’re comfortable is the most important thing, especially when their family isn’t home!
About: I’ve taken care of pets from a young age. I’ve had many dogs of my own and taken care of litters. From coworkers needing a helping hand to neighbors taking a vacation I’ve seen it all. I have a part time job that’s very fluent with hours so I will have tons of time to take care of and even just hangout your pets. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and I am easily accessible if there is any worry or concerns about my care or your pets well being.
