“Jaylene came the day after our meet and greet to walk our dog Remi! She was easy to communicate with to make plans and schedule. Jaylene took her time to win over Remi, who can be a little shy and skeptical upon meeting someone new. They went for a walk and Jaylene updated me with everything Remi did. Remi and I look forward to our next booking with Jaylene!”


“Great experience, Lily was always happy to go on walks w Elizabeth and in a great mood when i was home. Elizabeth was great in communication and def plan on using her services”

About: I have had lots of felines through the years and really love taking care of them. I also love playing with dogs and taking them for long walks. They have lots of energy and love exploring as much as I do. 🐕 I have lots of time to care for and play with your felines, dogs and birds. It is the best time of the year to get outside and explore the area with dogs. We start the day by taking a walk and eating breakfast. Follow the pet's usual walking route unless otherwise instructed. I allow the dog to explore and sniff within safe limits. I provide exercise tailored to the dog's age, breed, and health. I avoid interactions with unknown dogs and people to prevent any potential conflicts.

“Maria was able to take our pups on walks on very short notice. She is very polite, was always on time and sent lots of pictures. Pups enjoyed their walks and always came back happy and tired! Highly recommend.”


About: I’ve had dogs since I was 7 years old. Growing up, I had four dogs at once as family pets. My siblings and I were responsible for taking care of them. Their breeds ranged from English Mastiff, to Great Dane, to Jack Russell Terrier. I especially helped take care of them towards the end of their lives, where care is more challenging. They have since passed, and I now have a 3 year old Lab of my own. Neighbors and family members have always relied on me to take care of their pets while away, and the dogs have always taken a liking to me. I pride myself on having experience with a wide range of breeds and sizes. I promise you’ll dog will be in good hands, as I know the unnerving feeling of leaving your pet with a stranger. As a teacher, I thankfully have the entire summer off. I’m available morning, day, night, and weekends! There is no time that is off limits. I will care for your dog however you request in your home, whether that be left out or crated. They will be walked or played with until their heart’s content!

About: My partner and I both grew up with dogs, have cared for friends dogs, and both rescued our puppies 4 and 5 years ago (terrier mixes). We both have extensive training experience and can identify dog body language well. We will ensure a safe and fun environment for your fuzzy loved ones. Our dogs are both fully vaccinated and we only accept dogs with current vaccinations. We both work from home and have flexible working hours. We can let your dogs out in our fenced in back yard, play with them, and take them for walks around the neighborhood. We have a fenced in back yard, a large couch, and two friendly medium energy dogs to play and nap with your fuzzy loved ones. We also offer treats if your dog is allowed.

About: I have had dogs, cats, birds my entire life. I have baby sat my friends dogs and cats, I love caring for animals of all sizes and ages. I’m currently working part time and on my own schedule so my availability is pretty open for your pets needs! Also have my own mode of transportation. I have a fenced in yard for my dog. And I have two indoor cats that are strictly inside. They get along great with my dog. But we also have plenty of space in the home to keep them separated if needed. All of our pets are healthy and go to the vet regularly. We have a large home with plenty of space for all our fur babies!

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid. I grew up with dogs, cats and bunnies. I’m a former kennel-hand at veterinary hospitals. I’m also a former Pet Car Technician at K9 Resorts Luxury Dog Hotel of Roxbury. I’ve been house/ pet sitting for years now but just by word of mouth. I’ve dealt with breeds ranging from golden retrievers and labs to rottweilers and pitbulls to chihuahuas and french bulldogs. I believe I am fully capable to properly and lovingly take care of your furry friend(s)! I’m currently working weekend nights at Roxbury Diner. I work 3 pm or 4 pm to 9 pm or 10 pm at night. I am able to take off from work if you need me over the weekend but I need 2 weeks in advance to request off! I care for your furry friends with lots of love. I like to go for walks so I am willing and able to take your pet with me!

About: I have taken care of my 3 dogs, black lab, Chihuahua, and Brittany spaniel since about 8 years old. I love taking them on walks, playing ball and just hanging out with them! I am a full time student so I am super flexible with any bookings! I am able to do drop ins, walks, and overnight stays all 7 days of the week! I can do whatever you would like with your dog and where ever is most comfortable for you.If that be your backyard, house, in a neighborhood, or in the park. I also take taking care of your family’s baby very seriously!

About: My family and I have been taking care of dogs on and off for 15 years. Our dog has had two litters totaling 23 (Creampuff Labradoodle is the breeder) which we have hosted in our home as they grew up. We love nature, being outdoors, and all things animal related! We host play dates at our home often and our pup enjoys the company. Things to note: we are a busy household and have three children. We are in and out throughout the day but never for long periods of time when watching pups. Visiting dogs must be comfortable around my dog and children. I will always do a meet and greet before taking a dog in. Must know basic training skills and be clean upon arrival, and be house trained. Things to bring for day care/boarding: Bed, water and food bowls, crate. If a crate is not an option then we can use our gated corral. They are able to have free rein over house, I am fine with that but as a safety precaution or for use when we leave I prefer to have an option to contain the pups. I have toys, towels, and treats. If any signs of aggression are shown or excessive behaviors I will ask if I can gently train your dog with a sound device. I have used this on my own dog and it works great as a non invasive tool if unpredictable circumstances arise. Our back yard is fenced and we take extra care at our front door and can block the foyer with an extra gate for safety. I own a photography business so I make my own schedule. If I am away from the house, it is not for long at all and I do all my editing from my home office. I am flexible and accommodating to various needs. I have a fully fenced back yard. We have a gate for leaving uncreated dogs in if we run out for a bit. It can block off the foyer area or be set up by the deck door for views of the yard.

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, turtles, and guinea pigs, I bring a deep understanding and love for animals. From my Eagle Scout project, where I built a heated outdoor cat house and cat walk for an animal sanctuary, and volunteering at the same sanctuary caring for all the animals, to even birthing a dog with 7 puppies, I’ve always gone the extra mile to ensure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I grew up with 4 pit bulls, dobermans, and german shepherds. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I am pet first aid certified, a member of Pet Sitters International, AND a certified pet sitter. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. Every morning starts with feeding and checking on my birds, I ensure they have fresh food, clean cages, and some out-of-cage time for flying or play. My evenings include settling all the animals in my care, ensuring their environments are safe and comfortable, and spending quality time with each. Weekly, I focus on cleaning, grooming, and planning for upcoming stays or any special care needs. Pet care is more than a task for me—it’s a rewarding part of my everyday life. When we sit pets, we treat them like part of the family. In our secure, fenced yard, dogs get plenty of playtime and exercise, whether it’s fetch, running around, or simply exploring the space. Our yard is also treated with Vets Best tick/flea spray. I always supervise outdoor time to ensure they’re safe and happy. My goal is to ensure they feel at home while their owners are away, with a mix of outdoor fun, indoor comfort, and plenty of love.

About: **currently not offering boarding. Drop in visits and dog walking only I love dogs ! I’ve always grown up with dogs and adopted my own once I moved into my house 7 years ago. We lost our beloved 17 year old shih tzu in 2020 and since have adopted a fun loving 11 year old husky named Skylar! I have dog walked and house sat for others since I was in high school and have experience with young and old dogs . Neighbors , friends/family have also relied on me to help out when they need someone to care for their dog. I am willing and capable to administer medication if needed. I quit my full time teaching job to pursue a more flexible work schedule to be home more. I nanny part time and I am home most hours of the day. My husband is also home 3 days of the week given his first responder schedule . I have a completely fenced in back yard and we are extremely cautious when it comes to leaving our home / coming inside. We rarely use our front door and go out/in through our garage making sure to close the door before opening ! I am looking to board dogs primarily in my home if it’s over night . Our house is split leveled and although another dog is welcome in the entire house, having the split level is a nice option if the dog needs to be separated . If we do need to leave the house I would separate both my dog and the boarded dog to be safe. We have dog gates to separate the top /bottom level of our home. I prefer that all puppies are crate trained . We do have a crate . I work from home part time am always home or around town! My husband and I always make sure to give a good long walk to our dog each day and love to bring another pup along. I have a large fenced in yard which makes for a great space for your dog to run around and play/use the bathroom! My house is a split level so your dog will have its own area downstairs so I can separate my dog and yours during bedtime and if I run our of the house. I also am able to provide a crate for dogs who are crate trained.

Sophia N.
“I’ve known Sophia for years, and if there’s one thing that’s always been true about her, it’s her love for dogs. She grew up in a home with four dogs and was always the one making sure they were fed, walked, loved, and cared for. Whether it was giving belly rubs, managing medications, or patiently training them, she handled everything with so much responsibility and heart. What really stands out about Sophia is how naturally she connects with every dog she meets. Big, small, shy, energetic—it doesn’t matter. Dogs immediately warm up to her because they can sense how genuine she is. She treats every pup like her own, and you can tell she truly enjoys spending time with them. If you’re looking for someone who’s experienced, reliable, and will love your dog like family, Sophia is it. I’d trust her with any dog, any day.”

I would definitely recommend Trista to take care of your pets!”

She was very helpful, accommodating and trustworthy. I would absolutely ask her to help us again and recommend her to anyone who needs someone to help with their fur babies. 10/10.”
