About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years—starting with my own two (a playful pup and a sweet senior). I used to run a dog-sitting business in my neighborhood, and I’ve loved every tail wag and muddy paw since! I’m calm, patient, and totally in tune with dogs of all ages and energy levels. Whether it’s puppy zoomies or slow strolls with older pups, I’ve got it covered!! I’m interning in Cambridge this summer and working from home most days, which means I’m free nearly every day for some puppy love! My flexible schedule lets me give dogs the attention they deserve—whether it’s a midday walk, playtime, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I don’t board pups at my place, but I’m more than happy to come to theirs—where the couch smells right and the treats are familiar. I treat every home with care and every dog like they’re my own. I follow routines, give lots of love, and make sure your pup feels safe, comfy, and totally adored!!

About: Animals have always been part of my life. I cared for my beloved Miniature Pinscher, Maycee, for 15 years, from her puppy days through her senior years, so I understand the full range of a dog’s needs as they grow and change. These days, I share my home with two large, gentle sighthounds (a Saluki and a Silken Windhound) and a playful young cat, so I am comfortable with multiple pets and a variety of personalities. What sets us apart is that we are a mother and son team who genuinely love animals and enjoy caring for them together. My 13-year-old son Julian is gentle, calm, and observant with pets, especially high energy dogs or animals that need a little extra patience. He is eager to gain experience now so he can eventually run his own pet care business when he turns 18. I bring years of direct experience, from senior care to leash training and caring for multi pet households. Together, we create a safe, peaceful environment where your pets will be treated with the same love and attention we give our own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because animals are already a big part of our lives. We’re available in the mornings and afternoons after 3PM, which makes us a great fit for daytime walks, check-ins, or playtime. I’m also available in the evenings, as late as 9:30PM, for dinner visits, medications, or just some comforting company before bedtime. As a mother-and-son team, we’re flexible, reliable, and happy to work around your pet’s schedule to make sure they feel safe, seen, and well cared for. We care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. Whether it is a drop-in visit, a walk, or extended care, we always follow your pet’s usual routine including meals, potty breaks, walks, medication, and play. This helps ensure they experience as little disruption as possible. We treat your home with respect and your pet like family. My 13-year-old son Julian joins me for many visits and brings a calm, friendly energy that animals naturally respond to. I provide supervision and structure while he gains hands-on experience with the goal of one day running his own pet care business. You can count on us to be reliable, communicative, and attentive. We are also happy to help with light household tasks during your time away, such as collecting mail, watering houseplants, or tending to gardens. We will check in with updates and photos so you feel confident that your pet and your home are in good hands.

“Elisa was amazing! Our Golden Retriever usually goes to daycare, but he is recovering from surgery and we needed someone to come to our house. Thank God we found Elisa. She is sweet, kind, and professional. She sent us pictures and updates throughout her visits. We will definitely be booking with her again”


About: I have owned cats a dogs! I am going to grad school for ABA therapy, which is where clicker training (often used on dogs) is derived from. I have worked with pets of all ages- I am a great fit for active animals- it would be my pleasure to walk or run with your pet! In summer of 2025 I have free time on everyday except Wednesdays and Fridays (and some small weekend trips). Come fall- I hope to be starting a new full time job- but would still be available on weekends and evenings! I am dependable and reliable. If I make a commitment nothing stops me from getting there. I will not be afraid to ask questions to make sure your pet gets the best care possible! My job is to make your life easier and that is what i intend to do. If interested I will provide picture of your pet while they are in my care. Look forward to meeting you and your pet!

“Stephanie was great! She took great care of my dog while we went away for vacation on short notice. Would definitely use her again and recommend to friends and family.”



“Helen did an awesome job walking my dog while we were away for the weekend. She was prompt and sent me a Rover report card with pictures after each visit! My dog was able to be home and was happy while we were away! I would definitely Helen again!!”


“I’m new in town and needed a last minute sitter. Joann was immediately responsive to my request for care and easy to work with. I felt peace of mind that my cats were in good hands as I read her daily updates. I would be very comfortable asking her to return the next time I go out of town.”


“Kristi took very good care of our cat when we were away. We will definitely keep her in mind for next time and appreciate all the beautiful photos of her while we were away. Mind was at ease knowing she was getting good care.”


“Talia did a great job for us! She even brought in our packages which weren’t supposed to be delivered when she was there! Gabby warmed up to her at the greeting, which is not a normal thing for Gabby!”


“After some initial difficulties with my fickle door, Molly was good with my 3 cats. She made 3 visits in 2 days, and they were happy and healthy when we came home! She sent me an update and a picture after the last visit.”


“Emily was great taking care of our pup overnight. She treated our house like her own, and most importantly our pup like her own. She was also punctual and responsive. She's also cared for our barn cats, checking in and making sure they had food and water and some affection!”


About: I’m a cat lover turned cat and dog lover! Over 14 years experience raising my own dogs and dog sitting when I’m not teaching. 25 plus years caring for cats as well. I’m trustworthy and dependable. I’ll treat your pet like my own and be sure to communicate with you for all visits. I am an elementary teacher by day, with late afternoon availability, nights and weekends! I’ll treat your pet like my own including playing with them, walking, brushing, and spending time with your pet while you’re gone. Trust is extremely important to me. I will communicate before, during, and after my visits to provide updates on your pet. I hope to build long term client relationships with you and your pet.

About: I've taken care of dogs for the last 5 years. I have experience feeding, bathing, walking, and playing with dogs. I have trained a puppy before. I'm currently working part-time so I have all day availability on the weekends and M, W, F. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have availability after 4:30pm. At this time, I can care for animals in a client's home. My home is maxed out with three cats :) I am respectful and considerate of someone's home.

About: I have 5 dogs of my own! I have a Pitbull mix, Australian Shepherd, 2 elderly Terrier Mixes, and a Redbone Coonhound! I have previously cared for 3 elderly Poodles who needed special medical care which was administered during my visits. I periodically sit for neighbors and family's pets while they are away. I have grown up with multiple animals my whole life and am always excited to meet new friends big or small! I have a current job at a retirement home in which I work about 5 days a week. I only work shifts of 3-4 hours from 4-7:30pm give or take. Outside of those hours I am almost always free! We currently have a fenced in yard for our dogs but I always provide supervision when I let them out. I take my able dogs for longer walks when the weather is fit. I always make sure our dogs have fresh water and food to keep them well nourished and healthy. For my elderly dog, we provide her with medication each morning.

Simone S.
“Simme (aka Simone) is the most responsible young adult that I know. I’ve known her for many years and I would trust her with anything especially my pets. I have seen her kindness and care with animals and I never have to worry when she is around because she is careful and outgoing with her dogs and mine and she is always looking out for their best interest. I’ve seen so many dogs gravitating towards her, she certainly is a dog whisperer. Over the years of our friendship she has proved her reliability, responsibility and commitment time and time again. I would recommend her to anyone I know and I hope you will too.”


Kristina D.
“We reached out to Julian and Kristina when we had to leave for the day unexpectedly and didn’t have a plan for our 5 yr old cockapoo, Phoebe. They were able to come by for a mid-day walk, making the trip possible. They provided excellent care, were great communicators, punctual, attentive, and clearly passionate about pets! As a bonus, they took beautiful photos of their adventure. Will absolutely call again.”

“I can’t recommend Mary enough as a pet caregiver! She’s looked after my two large dogs (a Lab and a mixed breed) on several occasions, and they absolutely adore her. She’s confident, responsible, and clearly experienced with animals of all sizes. She’s also cared for my two rabbits with the same level of attentiveness and even helped out when we were fostering kittens. She’s calm, gentle, and incredibly thoughtful with every animal in the home. It’s such a comfort knowing I can trust her with a full house of pets. Highly recommend!”
