About: I’ve taken care of my family’s bich-poo since I was in fifth grade, and I’ve helped care for various friends’ pets when in need for the last 8 years. My dog is also diabetic, so I could help with any diabetes-specific care. I’m currently a part-time student, so my schedule is very flexible outside of my 8am-1:30pm class schedule. On weekends, I am mostly free during the day with the occasional weekend ski trip. I have several dog-loving roommates, and plenty of parks in my neighborhood to play at. My apartment is spacious and a great environment for a dog.

About: I have taken care of friends’ dogs during trips and overnight visits, feeding, playing with, and walking them. I love spending time with pets and am open to caring for any type of dog. I’m currently looking for temporary work and have a lot of free time! Available for day visits as well as overnight, whatever is needed. I am a gentle and adaptable animal lover and I enjoy playing with, caring for, and spending time with dogs and cats of all kinds.

About: I've been caring for animals since I was 12, when I started pet sitting for neighbors, and I never stopped! I grew up with two dogs and two cats who are still very much part of the family, and I've fostered dogs, which taught me how to earn the trust of nervous animals, manage house-training and crate routines, and stay calm when a pup needs extra patience. I'm comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages and energy levels: puppies, seniors, high-energy walkers, medication schedules, and the shy ones who need a little time before they warm up. I'll send photo updates so you know exactly how your pet's day is going. I'm currently a law student, which means a lot of my work is done from a laptop; I can give your pet real company during the day rather than a quick drop-in and out. I treat every animal like one of my own, and I'll follow your routines exactly as you'd do them yourself. Until August, I have a very open schedule for both weekdays and weekends. Once classes start in September, I will have availability mostly in the afternoons during the week and anytime on weekends. In my home (boarding & daycare): I'm in an apartment with no pets of my own, which means your dog gets undivided attention and never has to negotiate with a resident dog over space, toys, or food. There's no fenced yard, so I take potty breaks and walks to a park a few blocks away, leashed the whole way, and on a schedule that matches what your dog is used to at home rather than a fixed house routine. My place is pet-proofed before every stay: cords tucked away, trash and cleaning supplies latched or out of reach, nothing left on counters, and doors and windows checked before your dog is off-leash inside. If your dog is crate-trained and you'd like them crated while I'm out, bring their crate and I'll use it exactly the way you do because a familiar crate is far more comforting than a strange one. If they're used to being loose, that's fine too. At night they sleep wherever they're used to sleeping, whether that's a bed on the floor, their crate, or next to me. My schedule shifts with my class and exam load, so I'll tell you honestly what a given week looks like before you book. Some days I'm home nearly all day; on others I'm out for a few hours at a stretch. You'll always know which one you're getting. In your home (drop-ins, walks & house sitting): Same principle, your rules. I follow your instructions exactly: feeding amounts and times, medications, crate routine, off-limits rooms, and any quirks I should know about. I like to do a meet and greet first so your pet can get comfortable with me and you can show me where supplies are, how the locks work, and who to call in an emergency. Keys and codes stay private, and I never bring anyone else into your home. On walks: Leashed at all times unless it's a fenced area you've approved, with a collar and harness check before we head out. I stay off my phone except for photos, watch for traffic, loose dogs, and whatever's been left on the sidewalk, and adjust the route for heat, cold, and your pet's age and energy. I always clean up. Updates: Photos and a short note every visit or day. If anything seems off, you'll hear from me right away, and I'll have your vet's information on hand before the booking starts.

“Perla was great! She took wonderful care of our cat while we were away as well as our outdoor plants during the hot summer days.”

About: I've been caring for animals for many years and have experience with a wide variety of species. I've been handling and looking after dogs and cats since I was 12 years old, giving me years of hands-on experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I always make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care while you're away. I'm currently taking some time between finishing graduate school and starting my postdoctoral position, which means I finally have something scientists rarely get—free time! I've decided to spend it doing something I genuinely enjoy: caring for animals. This flexible schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet, whether that's stopping by for visits, playing, feeding, administering medication, or simply keeping them company. I know every dog/cat has their own personality (from "cuddle enthusiast" to "please admire me from across the room"), and I'm happy to adapt to whatever makes them feel most comfortable. For me, pet sitting is the perfect way to combine my love of animals with helping fellow pet owners have peace of mind while they're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I understand that every cat is different, so I take the time to learn their individual personality, preferences, and daily routine to help them feel as relaxed as possible while you're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both your home and your pet's established routine. I'll follow all feeding schedules, walks/litter box maintenance, playtime, medication instructions, and any special requests you have. I also make sure doors, windows, and gates are secure at all times and keep a close eye on your dog's/cat's behavior and well-being. I'm happy to provide regular photo and video updates so you can see how your dog/cat is doing and have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, cared for, and loved until you're back home.

“Tommy did an exceptional job caring for my two fussy cats for 6 days! My cats both need medicine and extra care every day and Tommy was consistent, reliable, and a great communicator. I can tell my cats were well cared for while I was away. Thanks so much Tommy!”

“Ella was a great catsitter! She send us a lot of photos of our furry friends and took great care of them while we were away. Highly recommend!”

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.

“Sarabeth was great! She was great at reading and recognizing my dog’s boundaries, paying attention to house rules, and providing lots of fun for my dog. Will certainly have her back to watch Mae again”

Stacey L.

“Michael is great! Responded to my request to check in on my cats so promptly and I felt secure knowing my cats were in good hands. Got lots of pictures and updates. I definitely recommend booking with him!”

“Madison did an exceptional job with taking care of my cat Jiji! He was hospitalized while I was away, and Madison responded to a very last minute message for help with giving him meds and watching over him. They took the time to get him comfortable to give him his meds and plenty of love! They were very communicative and I felt extremely at ease thanks to Madison’s care :) On top of that, they even left him a little gift! I could not be more happy, and I would definitely recommend Madison if you need someone wonderful to watch over your fur baby.”

“Oliver did several drop in visits on our cat while we were away for a few days. Oliver is extremely responsive and very reliable, would definitely recommend”

I’m affectionate, patient, and always focused on making them feel safe, loved, and happy. I’m happy to take care of your best friend! Whether it’s for a few hours, a fun walk, or even staying with them when needed. I’m here to help. I’m available every day except Tuesdays and Thursdays.

About: Hi there! I’m Caitlin a proud mom of five, lifelong animal lover and active outdoor enthusiast. I have two dogs named Maverick & Val and a cat named Tuna. I truly understand how important it is to know your pets are in loving, dependable hands while you’re away. I studied at West Virginia University and now live in the Boston area, where I balance family life, work and caring for animals like they’re part of the family. Whether it’s going for a long walk, playing in the yard, or just keeping your pet company, I bring energy, patience and genuine affection to every visit. With a full household and years of experience managing schedules, routines and personalities (human and furry!), I’m organized, reliable, and deeply committed to keeping your pets happy, healthy and loved. I love being outdoors, running, hiking, walking, or playing soccer, so your pup will enjoy plenty of exercise and enrichment with me! Whether you’re looking for drop in visits, overnight care, or long walks I’d be honored to care for your pet like they’re one of my own. Feel free to reach out with any questions! Pet care is already part of my daily life! Between my own pets & children, caring for animals is second nature to me. I go on daily walks, do morning/evening feedings, playtime and love keeping pets active and loved. I work locally and have a flexible schedule (off for the summer because I’m a teacher!), so I’m able to give your pets consistent attention, whether it’s for a quick visit or overnight care. I’m used to balancing routines, and I genuinely enjoy spending my time with animals, they’re family in my world. I offer care exclusively in clients homes to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar space and routine. I follow all provided instructions closely, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, medication or favorite toys. I’m respectful of your home, keep things clean and give your pets the love and attention they need while you’re away. From cuddles to playtime to daily check ins, I treat every pet like they’re my own.

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. Before I went to college my nieghbor had just bought a puppy and we had just got a cat, I trained the cat and I did most of the dog walking for the puppy. Being able to play and care for animals is the best job I can think of. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I would love to be able to work with familiar clients and their animals. I provide over night pet sitting services, dog or cat walking, and drop in’s. I can take care of your fur babies Friday to Monday, for anything outside that time I may have availability, so just ask! I work a full time job 8am-4:30pm Monday to Friday. I typically go off the rules you lay out for your pet along with their usual routine. I want to make things as easy as possible for you and your pet. If you have a list of dietary restrictions or medication they need to take, I’m happy to learn as well as get them the care they need. If they have a specific dinner or walk time, I want to make sure I stick to it for you.

“Stacey was responsive, timely, and reliable and quickly won over my nervous cat... who has now declared Stacey her newest and bestest bff. Thanks, Stacey!”
