“I have only glowingly positive things to say about Paloma and her family’s excellent, loving, active care of my two dogs. One of my dogs is skittish and has trouble settling in, the other is strong and needs a ton of exercise. Paloma managed to win both dogs over, updated me regularly, sent photos and videos, and just generally made me feel my girls were being well loved and cared for in my absence. Without a doubt, the girls will be back! Thank you!!”
“McKenzie was a lifesaver, offering to take my dog at the last minute the day before after I had a last minute cancellation with another sitter! She did a great job taking care of him and sent adorable pictures of my dog with hers! He came back home so happy! Thank you so much again!!!”
“Kristen watched our Bernese for several nights and is worthy of her 5 star rating. Her communication was excellent, and I felt very comfortable leave our anxious dog with her. During our trip, I received videos and pictures of our calm and happy dog, and I was able to feel peace while away. When I picked her up, it was clear our dog was comfortable and happy with her hosts. She sat calmly while I got a review and did not appear eager to leave or anxious about her experience. Overall, I would absolutely use Kristin and appreciated her care during an unexpected trip.”
“I’m always extra worried when I leave Bear but I felt like he was in really great hands with Yuliet! She sent lots of great updates while I was away and he was a very happy boy! Would love to have Bear stay with her again sometime”
“We left our 1.5-year-old Sheltie with Betsy for a long weekend and she was fantastic! Betsy responded quickly to questions, took our notes/suggestions into account during the visit, and sent us updates/pictures throughout the visit. Our dog came home happy, sleepy, and of course healthy!”
“Luke was amazing taking care of Murphy. He updated us, and I could tell her really enjoyed spending time with Murphy. Luke also is very easy to talk to, kind and friendly person. My dog Murphy was so happy to be with him. Can’t wait for them to spend more time together! 1000% would recommend Luke with your furry friend!”
“Fernanda was a godsend for us! We adopted a puppy shortly before our wedding, and Fernanda was happy to take our 2 month old little monster, Lucy. We got frequent photo/video updates, so we knew that Lucy was getting the love (and structure!) she needed. I honestly think Lucy behaved better for Fernanda than she does at home! We will absolutely use her again in the future!”
“Julia and her husband took wonderful care of my two cats. Their apartment is clean, bright, and full of windows for the cats to enjoy. They’ve watched my cats before, so I fully trust that they’re always in excellent hands. 😊”
“First time boarding with Maryah. She took excellent care of our 2 dogs and was very accommodating when we had to extend the boarding due to a family emergency. Would highly recommend and board with again! Thank you Maryah!”
“Jo and Adam were great. They are very responsive. I checked in on Cooper a few days ago, and they responded within five minutes. They also sent pictures daily. I would definitely ask them to watch Cooper again.”
“This is the second time Cindy has watched our dog, Callie. She sends pictures every day and we can see for ourselves see how calm and happy Callie is. Highly recommend.”
“Our dog was in great hands with Kerrin! When he suffered a minor injury while we were away, she too excellent care of him and gave consistent updates and photos. Highly recommend!”
“Jinyu was the best dog sitter we could have dreamed of for our puppy. As new puppy parents, we really appreciated how carefully she followed our instructions. She was kind, thorough, and very easy to work with. She sent daily photos and updates, which gave us peace of mind while also allowing us the space to fully enjoy our vacation. I would highly recommend working with her!”
About: I have a 6 years old Pomeranian at home in south korea. When I’m home, as the primary caregiver, I walk, run, bathe, and comb every morning and night! I don’t have any dogs in Boston with me, but I’ve dog sat my friends’ ~25 pound dogs for several times! I’m currently a PhD student in Boston, and I usually work from home twice a week! Also, I spend most of my time at home during weekends, and our apartment has the greatest waking path for the dogs! I live in a pet-friendly apartment and a well designed park right next to it. I love playing and walking with the dogs. We don’t have any pups at home, but i have one lovely Pomeranian at my house in Korea.
“Melodi was quick to respond and super helpful when my initial sitter fell through! My dog was well loved and cared for and I had no concerns during my weekend away. Would definitely have Melodi care for my pup again!”
“Monali is amazing and took good care of my dog Maple. She walked my dog, brought my dog to park, prepared lick matt with banana and peanut butter, even bathed my dog(my dog is 50lbs a d have double coat, so lots of lots of work). She is absolutely 💯 I can tell my dog loves her so much”
“Mia & Taowei took great care of our corgi Bert! They sent so many wonderful photos while we were away and kept him on a great routine. He really enjoyed their backyard! I would definitely choose them to watch Bert again!”
“Frankie had the best time at Michael’s house for the weekend! Frankie can be dog reactive and anxious and Michael made both me and him at ease for the whole weekend and for our meet and greet a couple weeks before. He has a great set up where Frankie was able to play all weekend and was the happiest (most tired) boy! Highly highly recommend Michael! Thank you so much!”

Took care of Toby perfectly!! Super kind and you can tell they really treat your pet as their own!! Also super understanding with travel issues. Overall amazing!! Toby loved them and runs into their house!! This is barely the second time he’s stayed with them and he already feels at home
Alex was great! He was super communicative and tired Leo out every day. It’s also great that he has a big yard, we were so happy to see Leo running around in so much space. He sent lots of videos and photos which made us know Leo was in good hands. Would definitely book again!
Xinyue and Weihai were such wonderful hosts for my dog while I was away! They spent time making her feel comfortable in their home, cuddling and playing fetch with her in their large fenced yard. They were very responsive to any questions that I had and sent photos of her sleeping and playing. They themselves have a lovely golden retriever who provided extra companionship to my dog. Their home is in a quiet neighborhood close to the city and nature. We will definitely seek them out again for future travel trips! Thank you!
Parashar B. and his wife are the best! They took great care of Rocky for 5 days and sent me tons of updates, videos and photos each and every day! Incredibly easy to work with and great communication! Rocky had an incident during his stay there and they reacted and acted not only professionally but further more as Rocky was part of their family! I totally trust them and I would definitely book Parashar B. again!
Metehan and Aya took great care of Fig and Pesto for over a week while we were away. We got picture and video updates regularly and they asked questions when they wanted clarification on anything. They were very accommodating and their apartment has lots of great places for the cats to hide, explore, and lounge, while being very clean. They were great hosts and very welcoming. We would recommend!
