About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and for the last 6.5 years, I’ve had the pleasure of raising my own fur child, Melli Rose. She’s a black lab (my favorite breed) and is the chillest girl to ever exist. She’s great with other animals. I recently got engaged and am looking to make a bit of money on the side to help pay for the wedding along with getting to meet new pets! I work on a hybrid schedule—3 days remote, 2 days in the office. When I’m remote, I take my dog on multiple walks a day and would love to have yours join! I firmly believe pets are royalty and deserve to be treated as such. Nothing I do could ever repay them for their unwavering loyalty and unconditional love, but I’ll spend the rest of my repaying them with my love and affection.

About: I’ve fostered and cared for animals since I was little, working for Animal Rescue League in Boston. Highly experienced with big dogs and cats/kittens. Owner of Great Pyrenees, Bernese, and two cats. I'm a teacher with open evenings and weekends, and love spending that time with animals. Whether that's a walk outside or checking in on a pet at home, I'm happy to make sure your pets are cared for and content! I am super experienced in pet care— including animal/wildlife rehabilitation. Very mindful of what’s safe for dogs and cats of all social levels, and how to keep them calm and happy. After years of working with animal shelters as a foster home, I love working with all kinds of pets!

About: I took a break from 2021 to present and am looking forward to resume. I have cared for dogs for my family and friends previously with great joy! They love me as much! Reliable, caring, and I like to walk. I’m retiring 1/2/20 and am looking forward to meeting and loving your dogs! I do have a small dog myself who loves to walk also. I am available to watch your animals on a flexible schedule. I live on a walking trail, close to a couple of dog parks and McLeans. A big backyard set back from the road. We enjoy being outdoors.

I would love the opportunity to get to know your pet and create a meaningful relationship with them. 🐶🐹🐱 Experienced and Willing. After graduating with my Masters in 2023, I am currently a part-time therapist and have flexibility in my schedule for drop ins, housesitting, and walking. My schedule is fairly consistent each week and I can devote time to your pets and their needs. I like to bring dog or cat treats for whoever I’m taking care of because I like to create a meaningful relationship with your pet.

“Tyler was kind enough to walk Milo for me on Thanksgiving. Milo was very happy to go with Tyler and was not stressed out when I got home. Tyler was very kind to Milo and I will definitely use him again.”

With seniors, I provide gentle, attentive care and make sure they stay comfortable and stress-free. I truly care about your pet’s well-being and happiness. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I work from home and am home most of the day. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, meals on schedule, and companionship throughout the day rather than long stretches alone. I tailor my care based on the service and your pet’s needs. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on consistency, comfort, and safety. I follow your pet’s routine closely, provide plenty of attention and companionship, reinforce training for puppies, and offer patient, gentle care for senior pets.
