Dog Sitting Roslindale

“Jadeth was wonderfully thorough and thoughtful in her visits and summaries! We really looked forward to her check-ins while we were away and they helped us to miss our cats a bit less. They seemed very happy and safe in her care!”

About: Hi, I’m Lindsay! 🐾 I have dedicated my career to the well-being of animals, blending over a decade of professional dog walking and hands-on pet care with professional veterinary hospital experience. From leading structured off-leash playgroups and serving as a Daycare Shift Supervisor to working as a Client Liaison at MSPCA-Angell Animal Medical Center, I have cared for almost every breed, size, and temperament imaginable. Whether I am providing dedicated house sitting in your home or dropping in for daily walks and check-ins, my background means your fur family is getting far more than standard pet care: - Behavioral Expertise & Comfort: I am highly skilled at reading canine body language, maintaining calm dynamics, and using positive reinforcement to keep anxious or sensitive pets feeling safe and loved. - Medical Peace of Mind: With my veterinary hospital background, I am deeply experienced in administering medications, managing strict schedules, and recognizing subtle signs of health concerns. I am also certified in Dog CPR, First Aid, and Safety. - Seamless Routines & Cleanliness: I take a lot of pride in keeping a tidy, comfortable environment. Food and water bowls stay fresh, your home stays respected and neat, and if the classic New England weather gets messy, your pet gets a cozy towel-dry before settling in. Because my schedule is highly flexible, your pet's exact routine is my top priority. I am a cat owner myself and love caring for both dogs and cats of all comfort levels. I’m always happy to provide detailed credentials and professional references to give you total peace of mind. I’d love to connect via a phone call or a meet-and-greet to see how I can best love and support your pets in the comfort of their own home! Pet care is my daily routine, which means my schedule revolves entirely around the needs of my furry clients and their pet parents! Whether it’s mid-day neighborhood walks, wooded hikes, structured playtime, or accommodating last-minute schedule changes, my current lifestyle allows me to be incredibly dependable, available, and fully present for your pet every single day. A typical day with me is the perfect mix of structure, safety, and pure fun, completely tailored to your pet’s unique groove! Whether your pup needs high-energy hikes and legendary games of fetch to burn off steam, or more leisurely neighborhood strolls and engaging brain games tailored for smaller paws, I customize the day to them. I take a lot of pride in keeping a clean, tidy environment. Food and water bowls are always fresh, play spaces stay neat, and if that classic New England weather gets messy, your pet gets a cozy towel-dry or a refreshing bath before settling in to relax.

“Michael took amazing care of my cat Zoe. He was a great communicator and made sure Zoe got lots of attention and care while I was out of town. Thanks, Michael!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have over 20 years of hands-on experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I believe every animal deserves patience, kindness, and plenty of love. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or a senior who needs extra attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. I’m a full-time Bioengineering student, but I carefully manage my schedule to make time for pet care because it’s something I truly enjoy. I’m available on evenings, weekends, and during many daytime hours between classes. I’ll always communicate clearly, arrive on time, and make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while you’re away Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. I keep a clean, calm, and secure environment, and I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and lots of affection. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to build trust and help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I grew up in a home with dogs, cats, bunnies, hens and roosters. I have never lived without caring for an animal! I love being outside, going for walks, playing and gardening. I am a mom of two school-aged boys and a proud owner of two tuxedo kitties whom we adopted nine years ago. I work part-time in the afternoons as an outdoor preschool art specialist. I am free between 9:30 am, and 1 pm everyday, and Wednesday and Thursday until 3 pm! I may also have early evenings free starting at the end of June. I have plenty of time in my schedule to help you care for your animals. Looking forward to meeting them! I am fun, gentle, playful and caring, and have a good instinct for what dogs and cats need. I can read body language and am sensitive to energy. I look forward to learning more about your pets from you, getting to know them and forging a relationship.

“Izza was incredible. She was prompt, took care of everything we asked her to, and sent a bunch of updates every time. We will be using her again when we travel!”

“Tommy was wonderful with our two cats. They were especially patient with our elderly cat who needed more time to eat. They took their time feeding and playing with the cats, made sure the doors were locked, and were kind enough to bring in any packages that were delivered when we were gone. Would definitely contact again next time we need a sitter.”

“Katie was very responsive to meet up on short notice. We had a great meeting with Lou for future sitting opportunities. Katie was easy going, super friendly and transparent about her experiences with dog and cat care in people's homes. Katie was very forthcoming about her approach and very forward thinking about caring for Lou, asking many important questions and checking in on specifics to accommodate Lou and his needs. Katie's approach to pet care is very genuine and connected to the experience of the individual pet and owner- this is much appreciated. We look forward to working with Katie and would recommend her again as our current dog walker has to us.”

I work from home full time, so your dog will always have company, structure, and plenty of attention throughout the day.

She loves having a friend around and I’m committed to making every dog feel safe, loved, and at home and making sure they get the care and affection they deserve.

About: I’ve taken care of pets all my life, as my house has never been without pets, I’ve always loved cats and dogs, and I’ve dealt with the every pet issue in the book.

With my lifetime experience, I believe I would be a great pet sitter for you! I’m currently working, but weekends I am free! My job is flexible, so I can work around schedules if needed! I can do an overnight stay or a daily check in! I spend plenty of time with play for cats and dogs, and assure each animal that I am a trusted individual. If needed I can crate your dog, or put cats in separate rooms if there are issues with other pets.

“Emma was so wonderful! She was reliable, kind, and very loving with my two babies. She took such good care of them and sent report on how they were doing and pictures! It’s so hard leaving my dogs as they are my children, but I know that they were in wonderful hands!”

About: I am a 21 year old college student home for the summer. I helped care for my beloved childhood dog for 13 years before he passed last year. Our house is empty now and I would love to care for your dog! I also have a year of experience volunteering at a dog shelter where I fed, walked, bathed, and helped socialize the dogs. I am a dog lover and would give your dog lots of love! I will be able to walk dogs anytime before 3pm all days except Saturday. For boarding, I am living with my parents so they and/or my partner will be able to step in to help care for your dog when I am away at work. I can also offer morning/afternoon day care anytime before 3pm. I will have plenty of time in the morning and afternoon to play with your fur baby! I have an unfenced yard out front, but can walk your dog leashed around the neighborhood and in the front yard! I live in a single family home with no other pets. I have dog toys, leashes, and dishes for food and water. I do not have a crate or pen, so this will need to be provided if needed for your dog. Preferably non shedding dogs for boarding.

About: I have done a lot of animal sitting since I was in high school looking after my nieghbors dogs and cats when they were away. I am a huge animal lover but I am best with dogs and cats.

If they have a specific dinner or walk time, I want to make sure I stick to it for you.
