About: As a psychiatric nurse, I offer gentle, attentive care to people in vulnerable moments. I bring the same calm, respectful presence to the pets I care for. Their feelings and situations are accounted for while I tend to their personal needs. I work part-time on an as needed basis and can work around the schedules of my clients. Available on short notice, including nights, and 12-24 hours' notice is preferred. I have a lightly fenced yard and two friendly dogs. A canine guest may be offered crating for sleep, or they are welcome to bring their own bed. Must be cat friendly. If caring for a pet in a client's home, care will be provided in their own environment precisely as they are used to.
“What a wonderful family! Luiz & Patricia are incredibly professional and kind (as are their daughters & pup!) and made my girl feel right at home. She came home exhausted after having spent much of the day running around outside and playing with their dog & daughters. I always LOVE to get updates during a stay, and I received so many fun pictures and videos. I could not recommend them more!!!”
“It sounds like Quinn had a nice time playing with other dogs here. Nikki was able to take him on fairly short notice. He returned calm and happy after the exercise and attention.”
About: Hi! I’m Nico! For years, friends and family always called me first when they needed a pet sitter, the pets and I both loved it! For 15-years as a butler and personal assistant to families in NYC & LA, management of high quality pet care has been one of my favorite responsibilities! Feeling lucky to have learned from all the best celebrity dog trainers in the world! My husband Matthew and I are new-ish to Franklin County, Massachusetts, and my current local clients would gladly provide references if you wanted to hear how care I’ve provided for their furry family members! I am currently working from home, writing a book, and would love more reasons to get up, get out, walk, and have some pets in the home too! I have dog bowls, beds, toys, and a big yard backed up to the woods for fuzzy friends to enjoy! If your pooch is not great off leash, that’s ok! I also have an outdoor pen and doghouse to keep them safe while I’m outside gardening! I love to have the dogs near me at all times!
“Me and my dog love Dayana, this was my first time with a dog sitter and was perfect, I enjoyed my day so my dog who went straight to bed after a full activity day, definitely booking with her again.”
“Hayley had Féirin for the day, and after that Féirin seemed happy, healthy, and tired. She fell asleep in the car on the way home. What else can you ask for?”
“Sofie is the most amazing petsitter I have ever met. Moki and Ollie were well cared for on a very stressful house-moving-day and Sofie was a kind and generous host even as she navigated their upset tummy issues. Thank you, Sofie; we will return when the boys are feeling well and settled and less stressed out. I appreciate you wholeheartedly.”
“Rachael was wonderful! Opie went for a day play and hang out. He had some buddies to play with and was a sleepy pup once we got back home. Rachael sent photos and reassured us everyone was happy! Thanks!!”

About: I worked in an exotic vet hospital for 7 years which is also a wildlife rehab facility. Prior to that I have raised and cared for animals of all species of my own my whole life. Whether fury, feather, scales, or more I love just about every living being & critter. I will care for your pets like they were my own. *Making a note that poisonous/venomous or illegal animals are not acceptable or allowed. I have experience with reptiles like geckos, bearded dragons like my own, iguanas, turtles, birds of all shapes, color, and sizes, some farm animals, ferrets, guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits, and things of the like. Animals that are venomous or harmful are excluded.* I care for and hang out with my fur babies, but there's plenty of room and time for more friendly faces. I work hard so my pets can have a good life. 😂 I frequently walk my dogs and can take yours around the neighborhood as well, lots of dog toys, pats and belly rubs, and can crate your pup if needed. Im also willing to help with some trainings and house breaking if requested.

Nico M.
“Nico is an absolute DREAM! Her energy is immaculate and just being around her is a gift. I literally don't trust anyone to take care of my baby and she came through with flying colors during a very difficult time! Layla, my dog (65lb female pitbull) had just gone through a very traumatic surgery and needed a lot of special care and love. Nico came to my house and stayed with her everyday for 2 weeks. Not only did Nico go above and beyond with Layla's care, she was extremely professional and 1000% trustworthy. Nico kept Layla on her strict medication schedule as well as changed the dressings on her wounds, a very tricky job that requires extreme patience and calm energy. She also sent me regular daily videos and photos and kept my anxious heart at ease. Layla is a dog reactive girl and Nico made every precaution to keep her safe and happy. Layla also loves to chase squirrels and can sometimes be a lot to handle on a walk. Nico was a complete pro at handling these sometimes difficult situation and even did some training with her during her stay. Layla and I are absolutely in love with Nico and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who is lucky enough to have even just a little bit of her time. PLEASE TIP HER WELL SHE IS A GEM!!!”

My husky is shy of everyone but after a few hours she was acting like she belonged right at Laurie’s house because of how patient Laurie and her family were to easing her in. I highly recommend Laurie and her family for your pet’s needs”
