1. Kim S.

“Kim is great! I can always depend on her to take good care of my dog. She alerts me if something isn’t right, she has been available on short notice, and she has never cancelled. I’m sincerely appreciative to Kim for all she’s done, and I’m grateful to know my dog is in such good hands.”


2. Andrew H.

“Andrew was on time and totally respectful. He was very calm with our hyper puppy and did a great job of letting the pup come/warm up to him. We had a few requests (sitting at sidewalks and heeling by people) that make walking the pup a little more work. Andrew was more than happy to work with all of our requests. Definitely recommend!”


3. Jenna C.

“Jenna is wonderful with my shy pup Finn. He warmed up to her very quickly and she does a wonderful job taking him out daily. She’s very reliable and flexible with my crazy schedule. 100% would recommend!”

About: I've had several dogs in my life, smaller and larger dogs. I had a cocker spaniel mix when I was a kid, a collie when my kids were young, and most recently a German shepherd. Each had their own personality and I have special memories of each one of them. I have taken care of older dogs and younger dogs. I can handle the energy of younger dogs and the needs of older ones. We have always seen our pets as members of the family and I hope you will allow me to see your dog in the same way. I have friends that I have stayed at their house for a couple of weeks to spend time with their dog while they were on vacation. We went for walks twice a day and had a lot of time playing together. I work remotely in my job so I am happy to work from wherever is needed to take care of your pet. My schedule is flexible and I will work hard to accommodate the schedule of you pet. If you just need someone to come to walk your dog or just spend time with your cat, I have the flexibility in my day to do that. My first goal is to make your dog or cat comfortable with my visit. If I'm staying in your home, I will follow the routine you have set to do just that.

“Morgan is awesome !!! So attentive and loving with the pups. She is also a great communicator, I always know exactly what mood my pups are in :)and how their walk went.”


7. Barbara Esther E.


“Barbara has been a blessing to me and my golden retriever. My mom passed away about a month ago and she watched over the dog while I was at work so I was in a situation where if I couldn’t create a life for my dog during the hours I’m away from home I would have to think of giving her up and that would have been devastating. Barbara agreed to come out twice a day to take care of Cassidy and she has been the most dependable, caring, and compassionate person to my beloved dog. She was so patient with Cassidy, she was going through a big adjustment with the loss of my mom. Barbara truly spent a lot of time establishing a bond with her and slowly they have developed a nice routine of playing in the backyard. They relax in the sun, play ball and with all her toys. I am very thankful to Barbara for the dependability, her caring nature and the smile on my dog each day I come home let’s me know I chose the right service and the perfect person to care after my dog. Thank you Barbara!”

“She was a very sweet lady my dog loved her and I'm definitely going to have her again”


9. Daniel H.
About: My family has always had dogs, so I have many years of experience caring for them. I have helped raise two chocolate labs from puppies and have taken care of our two adopted dogs. For many years I have also regularly taken care of family members and friends' cats and dogs when they leave town. I adopted two cats with my partner after never owning one previously, and have since grown very comfortable with caring for cats as well over the last year. I am currently taking classes twice a day in the late morning/afternoon for a master's degree in medical physics. I am available for house/dog sittings or dog walking in the late afternoons/evenings/weekends. I am happy to take care of pets in your home as often as needed but am currently unable to house pets as I live in an apartment complex.


10. Destiny C.

“Destiny was very responsive and loving with our new pup and easy to work with. She was available on short notice and I really appreciated her gentle approach.”


11. Robert P.
“Ford is a natural with dogs! He shows a good mix of fun and kindness while being adequately firm. Dogs respond very well to his manner. My own dog is always happy to see Ford and enjoy playtime, exercise and lots of cuddles!”


12. Maribeth D.
“Maribeth is such a compassionate two-legged person who adores any four-legged dogs, especially my Schnoodle dog, Snickerdoodle (aka Snickers). She gave a lot of attention to her by taking her out for a walk during breaks from work, bringing her to different dog parks, and giving her countless cuddles. While my family and I were away on vacations, she kept us updated on Snickers with photos. We were elated knowing that our dog who had separation anxiety was in good hands. My family and I couldn't ask for any better pet caregiver than Maribeth. We were blessed to have her in our lives, and we still wish she lives closer to us.”


13. Julie B.

“Julie is amazing and loving and and easy to work with she goes above and beyond”


14. Erin N.
“Erin is on of the most kind hearted young women I know. She’s been a vet assistant with puppies for her uncle who was president of the beagle club locally. He had a litter of puppies each year and she’d help him care daily for them. We have had two dogs her entire life and she has been more responsible than anyone I know without having to be told she always took initiative in their care and spending time with them all. She’s been a dog walker for two months through WAG in Boston but is now home for remainder of semester.”


15. Alysha M.

17. Jordan A.
“Jordan Anderson is one of the most compassionate and responsible people I know. Her passion for animals is exemplified in her choice to be a vegetarian for the last 14 years as well as the devotion to be a good cat mom to Harrington. Jordan has walked and watched all three of the dogs we have owned and she is truly someone I trust with my four legged family members :)”


18. Morgan B.
“Morgan was a part-time caretaker for my dog for almost two years. We met at a job that required us to work many hours a day, often more than 8 hours at a time. This was tough for me and first because I struggled to be okay with leaving my dog for that long. Morgan definitely was a savior. She was stop to let my dog out on multiple occasions throughout the week. Not only would she let him out, she always made sure his food and water were filled and she took him on a walk to get out of the house. Beyond the weekday visits, I often left my dog with her for days at a time when I knew I had a busy work schedule coming up. Morgan truly has a heart for animals and would recommend her to care of your pet as well!”


19. Willow F.
“Willow has taken care of our 2 dogs and 3 cats! She is so loving, thorough, dependable and hard working! I would recommend her completely!!!”


20. Julie F.
“Julie does an incredible job caring for our four dogs and is a trusted presence in our home for week long care while we are away. She is reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals. We felt completely at ease knowing our fur babies were in her capable hands. Highly recommend her!”
