About: I’ve had years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s keeping up with an energetic puppy, providing patient care for senior pets, or handling unique needs like medication or special diets, I’m confident in creating a safe and happy environment. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and my commitment to treating every pet as if they were my own. I’m skilled in recognizing subtle behavior changes that may signal discomfort or stress, and I’m comfortable administering medication, reinforcing training routines, and customizing care based on your pet’s unique personality. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I’ll always go the extra mile to ensure they feel loved and secure while you’re away. I’m currently an undergraduate student. My schedule is pretty flexible and I am more than happy to adjust my schedule to meet your needs. Thank you for your consideration! I have plenty of experience walking dogs on a leash. I am able to crate a dog as well as give pill medication, and feed all animals.

About: I’ve taken care of my family dog and cats since I was 11, but I’ve been housesitting and pet sitting for friends and family off and on for the last 10 years. I work 7-3 so, I’ll be able to come by after work and can house sit. I work from home one day a week but am otherwise in the office in downtown Boston. I am very attentive to detail and will follow safety measures you feel comfortable with. I’m eager and excited to learn how your pet feels best supported!

About: I’ve always loved animals and have extensive experience pet sitting for friends, including both dogs and cats of different ages and sizes. I enjoy spending time playing with them, going on walks, and making sure they feel cared for, and I’m happy to send cute photo updates while you’re away! Note: I work in office 8hrs/day for 5 days a week, so unfortunately I will only be able to accommodate for pets that will be able to be alone during those time I currently work full time with a mix of in office and WFH. I’m typically in office on Tuesday-Thursdays between 8am-5pm. I typically take the doggies out on 30 min walks in the morning and a longer walk after work. I live in a two level apartment. The area I live in is a relatively quiet neighborhood with a couple of dog parks nearby. I do have a cat at home, but the cat can be easily separated into her own space. When caring for pets in clients homes, I am great at following instructions to ensure the pet is well cared for.

About: Hi there! I’m originally from Russia and have loved animals since I was a child. Unfortunately, I was never allowed to have pets of my own growing up, so I always gave my love and care to the animals of my friends especially when they traveled. I was often trusted to care for their dogs, from small to large breeds, while they were away. In 2021, I also completed a short grooming course in Russia and learned how to provide basic care routines like brushing and gentle hygiene. What I can offer your dog: - Long, active walks in any weather - Drop-in visits or full house sitting - Experience with senior dogs who need calm and patience - Giving medication (oral pills, eye drops, etc.) - Ear cleaning and light hygiene care - Brushing during shedding season - Vet trips if needed (transportation and assistance) - Calming anxious or stressed dogs, keeping them engaged and safe - Following feeding and medication schedules precisely - Photo/video updates while you’re away -Optional pet photo sessions: I have strong photography and editing skills and can do studio or mobile photoshoots on request My schedule is flexible, so feel free to reach out and ask about specific days or times. I’m always happy to discuss what works best for you and your pet and see what I can accommodate :) The thing that’s really important to me: I never combine pets from different households during walks or pet-sitting visits. When you book me, my time and attention are dedicated exclusively to your pet (or pets, if you have more than one). No shared walks with other clients’ dogs! And i always follow your care instructions closely to keep your pup happy, safe, and stress-free. Good food, games, and affection are my recipe for a happy dog.

About: I have been a pet sitter in the Boston/Cambridge area for the past 3 years with experience working with cats and dogs. I work with cats and dogs with a wide range of personalities and needs. Does your furry friend need medicine 3 times a day? I do that. Does your dog love enriching walks? I’m here for that too. Senior dogs struggling with incontinence? I’m here to help. Currently, I offer house sitting (taking out trash, plant care, etc), drop ins, pet sitting (2-3 walks, medicine if applicable, feeding, play time), pet walks, and feeding. I can sometimes accommodate last minute bookings, though my latest availability is around 2 weeks out. I am available most holidays, evenings and weekends. I love pets and will often spend a little extra time with them if you're worried about them being left alone. I offer pet sitting in my client’s home to keep pets in the environment they feel safest. Before pet sitting for the first time, I will always ask that we meet, take a walk or have a chat with your fur baby present so that we confirm it’s a good fit for everyone. I’m here to learn from you, not run in as an expert or an uncaring sitter.

About: I’ve been caring for my own pets and others for over 10 years! I have had 3 dogs at once in my life and am fully capable of caring for them! My 6 year old dog was a puppy when we got him, so I have some experience training puppies. I also had a senior dog that passed away last year, so I have experience with aging and special needs dogs. I am available to care for your pups at many times during the week, but am most available on weekday evenings and weekends. I can also board your pups on Thursday-Sunday. I do not currently have any pets, so I would be able to maximize your dog’s comfort. If caring for your dog in your home, I would be extremely respectful to your space. Whatever you need me to do, I'll do it! Your pup is my priority.

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember and have always been involved in caring for them. My own dogs have included seniors who needed extra patience, daily medications and even injections, so I’m comfortable caring for older pets and following specific care routines. I’ve also grown up around and care for many other animals. I have a degree in Wildlife Conservation Biology and gained extensive hands-on animal care experience during my time at Kildare Wildlife Rescue, where I cared for a wide variety of injured and recovering animals. I’m patient, attentive and genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m generally working Tuesday-Thursday but I’m available for morning and evening walks or drop-ins on those days. I’m very flexible Monday and Friday-Sunday and can often accommodate daytime visits, house sitting and consistent weekend care. I want every pet to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their family is away. I’ll follow your pets normal routine as closely as possible, including meals, medications, walks, and any special instructions. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and health and will keep you updated with photos and messages. I’m also respectful of your home and will leave it clean, secure and just as I found it.

As always, Nick was reliable and communicated promptly and clearly. We so look forward to his photos and write ups! The cats are beginning to accept Nick almost as a member of the family --- he was even able to brush our very timid boy!!
