About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life! From my own pup, to my sisters dogs, friends dogs and more. I treat every dog like my own with the utmost care and love. I will ensure your dog is happy and safe, while having fun and getting belly rubs! Outside of work my schedule is fairly flexible and I am available for afternoon/evening walks and care that may be needed. I will work with you to create the best schedule for you and your pup! I am very respectful of others homes, and would ensure your dogs needs are met and they are given some love before exiting. Our homes are our safe spaces, so I would ensure the door is locked when I leave and your dog is happily awaiting your arrival home!
About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs for most of my life. I raised, trained, and took care of 2 very different dogs of my own starting 7 years ago. One of them is a rescue with his own specific needs and quirks so I am experienced with reactive and nervous dogs. I also have cared for many other people’s dogs. I’ve walked and care of senior dogs and helped with their unique care needs. I am attentive, responsible, and genuinely enjoy building bonds with the animals I care for. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you are away. I am currently a part time retail worker, so I have plenty of time and a flexible schedule for carrying for your animals. I am available for walks and in home visits everyday of the week, and I am flexible and easy to reach to set up the exact plan for your animals. I am very aware that each and every pet are very different. That’s why I am attentive and detail oriented in order to properly care for your pet in the way that it needs.
“Maria took great care of my cat Theodore! Loved all the photos she included from her visit with him while I was away and she was excellent at communicating any questions she had.”

“Aislinn is the best! This is my second time booking with her and she is extremely accommodating. She sent me updates with pictures after each visit with my cat Sandy and went out of her way to refill her water dispenser each time which was very much appreciated! Overall, I couldn’t recommend her enough and I will continue to rebook with Aislinn.”

“Melissa was awesome! Listened to every instruction I gave, provided regular updates throughout the drop in, took lots of pictures and went above and beyond to take care of my 7mo old puppy. I will definitely be reaching back out to her in the future when I need a sitter! Thank you Melissa!”

“My cat and I were lucky to find Katherine. She has been very kind and friendly toward my cat. Also, Katherine always followed my instructions carefully and were responsive to my requests.”

“Liz did a fabulous job watching over my two cats! She covered every task and even cleaned their wet food plates. She snagged a picture of them on each visit, even when they were extra shy. She’s responsive and easy to make plans with. Thanks!”

About: Dedicated to providing reliable, safe, and personalized dog walking services and pet care for your four-legged family members, of all sizes. I have owned pets since I was 8 years old and I’ve been walking dogs and caring for pets since 1995, with a deep respect for their well-being. Your pet’s happiness, health, and safety are my top priorities — they deserve the very best! I’m a work from home professional that is an animal lover, and I don’t feel like my schedule allows me to have a pet of my own. While not traveling for work a few days out of the month, I’d love to make sure your four-legged family members have a reliable and caring solution while you occasionally cannot be with them. Happy to answer any questions! I have several references I can provide from folks in the immediate Boston area where I have cared for their pets while they are out of town for work demands in the short term or when they need to be in the office. Happy to be flexible between the midday hours and allow you to have a last minute or a fairly regular solution to your pets care needs.
“Astro and Aria were well taken care of by Peter. He was extremely responsive to all my questions and requests, and sent thorough updates and pictures during his time caring for my cats. I am really pleased with how the booking turned out!”


About: I grew up with 5 dogs, now have 2 at home with my parents and one of my own in Boston with me. Willing to walk and exercise dogs twice a day. I provide lots of love and care for any animal I am around, can also help with other animals in the house, if need be. Spent a summer working in a veterinary office taking care and looking after all animals, can give medications and pay special attention to the needs of dogs. Full time working professional but willing to work out any schedule needed to take care of your pets! Would love to get to spend time with dogs while I am away from mine, so always eager to take on the sitting/walking/running challenge! Also as an added bonus always willing to take cute photos of your dog and send them along to you! I am currently a full time working professional. Am available for check ins and walks as my calendar allows and it will be updated weekly. I care for my clients pets the same way I would care for my own. I always call my clients pets my pets away from home and will provide only the best exercise, care, and love that they deserve.
“Kyle was a fantastic sitter for Sam, my adorable yet active Maine Coon. Responsible, professional, and good at making pets feel loved and taken care of when owners are away.”

“Caitlyn did a great job taking care of my cat while I was gone! She provided several pictures and detailed updates so I could stay informed of how everything was going each day. Would recommend her to others!”

“Lisa checked in on my cat Keke on short notice and was wonderful! She gave detailed updates with lots of photos and I came back to a healthy happy cat! I could tell Keke loved playing with her! I highly recommend Lisa for your pet care needs. Thank you!”

“Alex was conscientious and thoughtful cat-sitter, even finding our sneaky boys when they were hiding in strange places. Alex was also an excellent communicator, letting us know what was going on and asking questions when needed to ensure the best care. Always professional, kind, and careful, Alex comes with our full recommendation and we will be calling upon Alex’s services for future cat-sitting!”

Madeline was amazing!!! She helped me out last minute with my puppy and gave me such peace of mind being able to come. She was incredibly attentive and detailed with her visit notes. She followed my over explained directions perfectly and my puppy loved her!! I would 100% book with her again, thank you Madeline :)

Anne was absolutely fantastic! From offering to stop by to meet my dog to sending thoughtful recaps of each drop in visit, she was nothing short of amazing. She was very responsive, took excellent care of my dog and even went out of her way to sweep up his loose hair in my apartment. My dog loved Anne from the second she walked in the door and really enjoyed his entire time with her. I would 1000% recommend Anne to anyone who is considering booking her for any type of service. She watched my dog over my wedding weekend, which you can imagine could be stressful. I felt completely stress free with him in her care and will definitely be reaching out to book with Anne again.
