6. Valerie L.
“I'm extremely impressed by the amount of care and dedication Valerie puts into caring for pets. She'll look after your pet as they were her own, and she always takes the time to give them more love and attention than I would even ask for. I think the most important thing though, is she does it not just because it's a job or a favor, but out of genuine compassion for the animals. She's 100% the kind of person you want caring for your pets when you're away.”
7. Grace D.
“They were absolutely amazing with my cat and my dog. I will definitely be hiring them in the future. When I got home, the litter box was clean. The dog was walked and fed and everything.”

About: Hi there I am Gift ! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I’m home all the time everyday with my sweet golden retriever Bluey while my kid at school during the day so my schedule is very flexible I am available from 9:00am -2:00pm or sometime in the evening you can ask me if you need help for weekdays.I’m happy to help to check on your dog when you need.I am also available most weekends. I am home all day so your pup will get non stop attention. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member, and I’ll love them like they’re my own!
9. Terri H.
“Absolutely the best! Terri provides great care and so much love to our cavapoo and kitties! Initially, she took time to get to know our house and our pets’ habits. She’s punctual, communicative and most importantly, affection with our fur family. Her updates and adorable pictures make us feel like we’re in the loop and allow us to enjoy our time away worry free. Highly recommend for both dog walking and pet sitting.”
10. Mel G.
“Mel is fantastic. Very responsive, kept us updated, and came home to a happy puppy. We look forward to booking again and highly recommend for other local families.”

14. Brendan M.
“Brendan was so quick to respond and asked the right questions and helped us out. Would highly recommend.”
15. Samantha S.
“I highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter or dog walker. Samantha has cared for our dog several times in our home while we were away. Our dog, who can be aloof and a bit selective of her human friends, absolutely LOVES her and follows her around the whole time they are together. Samantha has a way with every dog she meets--even the shy or nervous ones can't resist her charm! You won't find a better person to care for your animal.”
16. Tess M.
“Tess has a great love for dogs and cats. Not only was she good with her own dog, Trapper but she is also great with others dogs and loves spending time with animals in general. She loves to take long walks and generally lives a very active pet friendly life. Tess has also house sat/taken care of my families cats and did a wonderful job. When we came home the house was clean and the cats were happy. I would trust Tess with any of my pet and highly recommend her!”
17. Kathy C.
“Kathy did a great job of checking in on our cats while we were away for two weeks! Good updates and good communication!”
18. Mia P.
About: I have grown up with 2 dogs (both Bernese Mountain Dogs but have had experiences with other breeds) 2 crazy orange cats, and 3 bunnies. I volunteer at a local shelter every week and have been doing it for just over a year and a half. I have lots of experience pet sitting for friends and family and would love to extend my clientele and meet new furry friends! My schedule is quite flexible since I have just graduated high school and won’t be starting college till late August. I already take care of my Cats and Rabbits I own now so adding a couple more pets into my schedule is always fun for me! I have a fenced in yard if I am watching your pup in my home and I am experienced with administering oral medication if this is something your pet needs. While I currently do not know pet CPR I am planning to take a course this summer so I can further my own education on animal safety. I take my clients safety as my main priority and want to create a healthy environment around your pets. There are absolutely no smokers in my family and I have quite areas located around my house for animals that require that or would like to have that as an option. I will also be able to keep my pets and your pets separated if there are worries they may not get along.

“You took her for a walk?! Fantastic!! I’m not strong enough, but like a child she behaves better for people she doesn’t know than she does for me!! Thank you so much!!”

About: To say animals are one of my absolute greatest joys in life would be an understatement! As co-founder of my own self-funded animal sanctuary in Scituate, providing compassionate, rescuing and taking care of animals of all kinds is one of my "true callings." I am absolutely honored to have the opportunity to care for your one-of-a-kind, non-human companion. ** Currently Accepting: 😺 Cats (all ages), 🐶 Dogs (2+ years), 🐔Chickens (all ages), 🐴 Horses (all ages) ** As a cat mom of 3, I respect and fully understand the unique needs and behaviors of felines. In addition to all the normal cat-related tasks (litter boxes, feeding, playing, etc.), I also have lots of experience dispensing prescription and OTC medications (liquid, tablet, injection, topical, etc.) to cats. I sadly had to master those skills when caring for one of my cats that passed away in February 2024 after a nearly 2-year battle with GI lymphoma. At one point, my poor angel was taking 5+ different medications per day that all had to be dispensed within certain timeframes. If your cat has similar needs, fear not - I can and would love to help you! Although I do not have dogs of my own, I regularly take care of my mom's rescue labs and would be happy to drop in for your pup(s) as well! Please note that I do not have much experience medicating dogs other than wrapping a pill in cheese ("the cheese tax" 🧀) or a pill pocket. Same goes for horses. Though I hope to adopt a few mini horses soon, I have experience performing general "stablehand" tasks such as stall cleaning (mucking out), feeding, grooming, and exercising/walking. Lastly, I am proud to specialize in chicken care. My sanctuary is home to 9 hens as of right now, 2 of which are disabled and live indoors with us. Surprisingly, the cats get along well with them! Whether you have a backyard flock or a (spoiled) house chicken like me, I LOVE hanging out with those crazy dinosaurs. 🦖 Not only will I refill feeders/waterers, clean up daily droppings, and collect eggs, but I am also comfortable grooming (bathing, "pedicures") and medicating (liquid, tablet, topical) them. And hey, when is the last time you deep cleaned the henhouse and run? It's probably overdue, right? Give me ~1-2 hours and I will make your coop sparkling clean. Please note that services outside of the standard drop-in chicken care are at an additional cost. I am currently "between jobs" and although my own "zoo" keeps me quite busy, I am available (and looking forward to) taking care of your pet(s). CATS: feeding, litter box, cleaning, socializing, medicating (liquid, pill, injection) DOGS: feeding, cleaning, socializing, medicating (pill only) CHICKENS: feeding, cleaning, medicating (liquid and pills only), socializing HORSES: feeding, stall cleaning, grooming, exercising, socializing
