“Cassidy was amazing! Was so helpful, even with my last minute requests. Made sure the dogs were well taken care of. As someone who has never left her dogs with anyone besides family, I felt comfortable and relieved to have someone trust worthy like Cassidy to help me out and take care of my pups! Thank you, Cassidy!”

About: I've cared for dogs for as long as I can remember! I have experience with both large and small dogs and even dogs who need some extra attention. I worked in a local dog store for a few years in high school so I have a few tricks up my sleeve! I can truly say I find joy in caring for and entertaining your pets when you can't be there for them! I’m currently in a career switch and looking to make some extra cash while I build my digital portfolio. Therefore, I am very flexible and can work with you to find a plan that fits for both of us! I am very respectful of owners in-house routines for their doggos. I like to make sure to follow feeding/walking schedules to ensure comfort for both owners and their furry friends.

“Elliot was super flexible, which I appreciated. I was out of town for 2 days and I hired him for 4 walks. He came and met my dog the night before the first walk, free of charge, which I really appreciate because I didn’t know if my dog would be okay with a stranger walking him. He was friendly and communicated very well. Would choose to hire him again!”

About: My name is Olivia and I have 15+ years of experience caring for pets! I grew up with dogs and have cared for all ages from puppy to senior. I have experience with a wide range of dogs with different needs. My college roommates included a rescue pit bull and a golden retriever puppy. My family has a young chocolate lab and a senior Jack Russel mix. I currently have no pets in my household and would love to make your pet feel at home! I have a flexible schedule and am around to spend time with your pets. I am very active and love to run and walk around the city. I am able to let dogs out during the day and will give them the attention they need! My home is spacious and I have room for a crate if needed. I have a fenced yard where your pet can run and play. I am great at following care instructions and pay attention to detail.

“Chad was great! They met our dog Clover on the same day as they had their first walk and she was immediately at ease. She can sometimes be skiddish and wary of new people and situations, but she loved Chad right away. We love that Chad lives close and will take Clover on walks to the Boston Commons to see all the flowers and people watch. She's more of a human than a dog, in my opinion, and she really loves time with her trusted people just chilling in the sun. Thanks so much for being her new friend, Chad!”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with 24 years of experience as a dog owner, and I know firsthand how much our furry friends mean to us. I have a dog of my own and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to give your pup the same love, attention, and care they receive at home. I would love the opportunity to spend time with your dog during the day when you’re busy, at work, or simply unable to be there. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some extra playtime, a little company, or just someone to give them lots of love and attention, I’m happy to help! Throughout my life, I’ve had the pleasure of owning a variety of breeds, including a Beagle, a Mastiff/Rottweiler mix, and an Australian Shepherd (Aussie). I currently have a sweet 3-year-old Dachshund named Cannoli! Having experience with different breeds and personalities has made me appreciate that every dog is unique, and I truly love animals of all shapes, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m happy to care for dogs at every stage of life, from energetic puppies who need extra playtime and patience to senior dogs who may appreciate a slower-paced walk and a little extra TLC. I understand that every dog has different needs, routines, and comfort levels, and I’ll always do my best to make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and loved. A little extra about us: My Dachshund, Cannoli, even has her own Instagram profile if you’d like to check her out! 🐶📸 Above all, I want you to feel confident knowing your dog is in caring, trustworthy hands. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own and make sure they get plenty of affection, attention, and fun while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged family member! ❤️ I work in marketing and work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of opportunities to spend time with your pup throughout the day! In between meetings and daily tasks, I have the flexibility to step away from my computer for walks, playtime, potty breaks, and some extra love and attention. I live in South Boston, so I’m also within walking distance of many different neighborhoods and areas, making it easy to accommodate walks and visits nearby. Since I’m home most of the day, I can easily incorporate pet care into my routine and help make sure your dog gets the companionship, exercise, and care they need while you’re busy. 🐾 My priority is making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll always follow your instructions, respect your dog’s routine, and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. I will never bring my own dog, Cannoli, around your pup unless you specifically ask me to and we’ve discussed whether they’re a good fit together. I understand that every dog has their own personality, boundaries, and comfort level, and I want your dog to feel completely at ease. I’m also familiar with different types of crates, harnesses, and leashes, and I’m happy to follow whatever routines or safety measures you have in place. Most importantly, I understand how difficult it can be to trust someone new with a member of your family. Our pets are so much more than animals; they’re our babies! I would never take that responsibility lightly. I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own, keep you updated, and do everything I can to give you peace of mind knowing your pup is in caring, trustworthy hands. ❤️

About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of dog and cat breeds for my entire life, and am used to having multiple pets around me at all times. My friends, family, and community have relied on me to care for their animals since I began pet sitting at 14 years old, and since then I have gained tons of experience in just about anything your pet may need! I currently work part time as a server in the South End, so my schedule is super flexible and open. Any time of day or night works for me! I grew up with 4 dogs in the house, so I’m super comfortable crating, keeping up with training, and keeping a close eye on them both inside and outside of the home.

About: Hello! I am a responsible, trusted, and caring dog-lover. I grew up with 4 dogs in my house, and I am now the sole owner of my own dog. I've also been responsible for taking care of friends and neighbors dogs since I was a kid. From taking care of my own dogs, to taking care of others, I am well-versed in meeting the needs of your animal. I am currently finishing my last semester at Northeastern University. I only have classes on Tuesday and Friday mornings so I have plenty of availability and to help. I have experience with puppies all the way to elderly dogs. As a dog-lover and owner, I am very serious about the safety of animals and attention to detail to make sure your dog is taken care of and it's own needs are met.

About: Unfortunately a dog is not in the cards for me, as I am in the office a few days a week. With that being said, I absolutely love dogs and wish I could have one myself. I will care for your dog with love and respect! I work from home 1-2 days during the week with a very flexible schedule. I have the capacity to do/go where your dog needs, (bathroom breaks, walks, etc.) I cared for my animals with love and I will do the same for you! Walks, playtime, rest, etc. I love having the companion of a dog around me.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for more than 15 years. My family has had numerous dogs, as well as extended family and friends that I have played an integral part in taking care of. I’ve attended a number of puppy training classes with my own dogs, and have spent time training them on my own. I love dogs of all kinds, and am great at making friends with them. I work 8-4. I am working from home three days a week, with opportunities to step out for a quick walk or check in, and am typically home in the evenings and early mornings. I am very comfortable taking care of your pet in your home, whether it be feeding them, crating them, etc and will make sure they get the love they deserve!

About: Hi! I had my own yellow lab for 13 years and have had many years of experience taking care of many different breeds of dogs as well as dogs with different personalities and care requirements. I am very comfortable getting to know new dogs and am very patient and have experience keeping dogs calm and safe in any environment. I have a lot of experience with both senior dogs and puppies as well as dogs who are more nervous and shy. I work remotely Monday-Thursday 8:30-4:30 and 8:30-12:30 on Fridays, I have a very flexible schedule. Please message me to discuss any details, I am very willing to meet you and your dog prior to spending time with your dog! I have a fenced in yard and have had two of my family’s dogs live here so it is very dog-friendly. I have also dogsat at the dog’s home many times and am very cautious and aware of how to keep them comfortable with me being in their space.
