About: I grew up with a black Lab and now have a cat, so I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for both animals! I truly love both animals. I work in office three days a week from 7:30 AM–4:00 PM and have availability both before and after work for pet care. On my two remote workdays, I have even greater flexibility to provide care, and I’m especially flexible on weekends. Dogs will always be kept on a leash unless there is a securely fenced backyard. I closely follow all owner instructions and prioritize each pet’s specific needs. I ensure indoor cats are never let outside, and I maintain their overall care and hygiene by providing fresh food and water, cleaning up as needed, and making sure they are able to go to the bathroom whenever necessary.

Sophia was truly amazing. She communicated every step of the way and always reached out with any questions. I appreciated how consistently she kept me informed with updates and photos, and how she let me know when she arrived and left each day. She also gave me helpful summaries of their daily activities so I always knew how Kharma was doing. I came home to a neat and tidy house, the trash taken out, and a very happy dog. It was clear Kharma was well cared for. I’d absolutely trust her again.

Taliah was nothing short of exceptional! Our dogs were so happy to be with her. She sent us updates multiple times a day, showed care and concern and asked questions when needed. I can’t recommend her enough. Looking forward to the next time we are away and can book her! Will 💯 use her again!

It felt so good going away and leaving our dog and cat and house in janette’s care. We booked her super last minute for Thanksgiving week and she came and did a meet and greet next day and was very sweet with our pets and sent pictures and updates. Highly recommend and will definitely connect with her again for care.

Liz was absolutely fabulous with our (very large!) golden, Cutiepie! While I was initially nervous with our very first petsitter/housesitter, I ended up ecstatic that we had such a lovely person to play with and care for Cutie and look after our home while we were out of town. We received regular photo and text updates, and I was quickly notified about any questions she might have about Cutie's needs. Liz herself has such a wonderful, friendly, and easy going manner about her as well; I felt immediately comfortable with her in my home and with my dog (who has now adopted Liz as her BFF and already misses her!). House was tidy when we returned and Cutie was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I'll definitely be booking Liz again next time we need to leave Cutie at home alone! Thank you Liz for being the perfect companion to Cutie while we were away! Couldn't have asked for a better petsitter! <3

Emily house-sit our dog Amber for 4 days. I cannot recommend her enough and cannot wait to work with her again. First of all, she was able to stop by earlier in the day than I initially set the sitting for, and let Amber out midday and come back later to start the actual sitting. I hugely appreciated this since I made a mistake in the reservation start time. She was great with photo and text updates. From all the photos I could tell how happy Amber was. Her food and medication schedule was kept the same and she had lots of fun with Emily. And I have to say that the house was left immaculate. She went the extra mile to unload the dishwasher that I accidentally left in full, and took out all the trash. None of which were her responsibility but she truly went above and beyond and we appreciated all of it. We cannot wait to have her take care of Amber agan.

Once again, Allie has done an incredible job watching our pups. She took such good care of our dogs and our home while we were out of the country for 10 days. She's the absolute best sitter and is so communicative and thoughtful. And most importantly, our dogs love her! Allie went above and beyond, and we will absolutely reach out to her again. This was our second time having Allie watch the pups, and it won’t be the last!

About: Hi I am Nora- a reliable student who loves spending time with animals of all sizes and personalities! I grew up in town with a Golden Retriever and a Bengal cat, but since their passings I have been occasionally watching other’s dogs! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to take care of their furry loved ones (mostly large dogs) while going away for a weekend or a longer vacation. I am young, ambitious, and thoughtful, but new to this platform! I am currently working part time as a cashier while completing my online masters program at UMass. My flexible spring/summer schedule M-F can accommodate your needs, while also making time for myself and my education. I am available for drop ins, walks, or house sitting and can accept last minute bookings if convenient. Only available until September! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always prioritize safety and communication with each client and I expect the same from you. I will be sure to keep you updated and send pics/vids to let you know your pet is being taken care of! Looking forward to establishing a connection with you and your pet, while also making them feel comfortable. Open to short or weekly commitments during the summer based off your needs.

3rd time using Ethan. This time for 7days, six nights in my house. Ethan was awesome with both dogs. Huskies can be bratty and difficult. Ethan had absolutely no issues handling him. Both dogs love Ethan. And Ethan did an awesome job taking care of the house. I highly recommend him.

Another great house sitting by Taliah. She understands my dogs and treats them so well. Dolly is a princess, a geriatric little girl. And Wrigley tries his best to be a sweet loving dog, but he had a rough stretch in his life after his first owner died. Taliah is very understanding of Wrigley. I have no worries about their care while I am away.

We had to go out of town - leaving our 5 pets one of whom was a new adoptee with some trust issues and one of whom needed some medication and tlc. Sherri came over to meet us all and I was quickly assured that the pets would all be in great hands with her. I was able to enjoy my trip without worrying about our cats and dogs. The animals all warmed up to her quickly and she sent me lots of photos and reached out with any questions. We came home to happy pets and a well cared for house. I highly recommend her!

Erika is absolutely amazing!! We hired her for my 8 year old black lab who was staying at the hotel while we got married. She sent me updates, photos and a video! It was so nice to look at once our night calmed down. She was beyond flexible with our schedule changes. Thank you Erika so much for taking care of our special boy!
