Nancy was great with my Setter Georgie! Many people say they'll treat your pup like he/she was theirs. Nancy truly does that! She is quick to respond, on time and my Setter loves his walks with her.

About: I have been a pet sitter for a couple years! Also, I have volunteered and interned at a veterinary hospital these experiences helped me become more informed on pet care. My main priority is providing your pet with the best care!! I will clean water bowl, provide fresh food and any further needs . I currently work a full time job but typically free Monday anytime before 8am and then again after 6:30pm, Tuesday and Thursday anytime from 9-11:30am and then again after 4pm, Wednesday, and Friday anytime from 7-1:30pm. For Saturday anytime in the day works for me and for Sunday anytime before 6am and then again at 3:30pm. My main priority is comfort making sure you are comfortable with entrusting your pet in my care and making sure your pet is comfortable with me. I will do this by allowing the pet to become familiar with me so they aren’t scared and providing treats as well as playful sessions to get them comfortable.

About: I’ve owned pets of all kinds growing up and naturally love animals. I’m responsible and have experience caring for animals, I do have pets and many family with pets. I will make sure I’m monitoring my request and a give a same day response as to my availability. I do work part time so it’s possible this may affect availability. I love to pet and play with animals, every animal is different though so I make sure to be aware of body language. Whatever the animal needs I’m there wether it’s walks, play, or usually attention

About: (I am only able to house sit during the day, not available overnight) I have had a family dog in my life ever since I was born. My first dog lived to be 15 and he lost the ability to use his legs around the age of 9. We took care of him by giving him medication, carrying him in and outside of the house, and even purchasing a wheelchair for him to be able to go on walks again. I was 16 when this was happening and played a huge role in taking care of him. We had another dog throughout this time and were responsible for feeding, bathing, and walking both dogs. I now have one dog who I walk regularly and take on hikes. I have dog-sat for both neighbors' and family's dogs and cats since I was 15. I am currently starting a part-time position and will have more available during weekdays to spend time with your sweet pets! I tend to have few obligations on the weekends, as well. I have two friendly dogs who live at my house, one that I just adopted as my own puppy to take care. We have a very large yard that he runs around in with an electric fence. However, we do have a long run that is tied to a tree in the middle of my yard. I would prefer to take care of pets in my clients' homes in order to make the pet and owners feel the safest.

Angelina was great with our dogs and I was nervous at first because of our breed of the 2 dogs and the size of our bigger dog most people are afraid of pits or are not to fond of them but she handled it very well. Did everything she was supposed to plus more. She was super kind and patient and our dogs loved her instantly. She provided great communication also. I wouldn’t know what we would have done without her while we were out of town but she gave me some relief. This was my first time and experience with the app and I loved it. I would rebook Angelina if I ever need assistance with Brick and Yola again. No matter the height or weight of a dog it didn’t scare her off , nor the excessive barking at times and the fact they love to jump on people lol. She was genuine and loved every moment from my understanding.

About: I've owned and cared for a Boston Terrier(Bosco) the past 6 years and counting. Those who are familiar with the breed understand both the physical and mental energy it takes to keep up. I am willing and able to reliably provide the same amount of effort and care for your pet! As you probably know, the summer time provides a ton of flexibility for those working in education full time like myself. During these months I am available anytime after 12:30PM until 5:30PM Monday through Friday as I am working part time in the Greater Boston area. On Saturday's, I am available any time after 10AM until 6PM. I will provide a safe, relaxing, and mentally stimulating environment for your dog! Whether it be if your pet likes to lay around all day or enjoys play time(or both), they will be in good hands.

About: I have never owned my own dog or cat (due to brothers allergies) so I grew up determined to find ways to hang out with other peoples! I’ve watched dogs and cats of all types/ages/personalities. I hope I get the chance to meet your furry friend! I’m currently unemployed, training for a Pilates instructor certification and so I have ample time to look after, feed, and play with the pets! I keep a very clean apartment, with an extra deep clean before pets arrive to ensure nothing is stepped on or eaten, I have ample space for the pet to have their own area or hang out with me and not feel cramped.

If you’re looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter, Cynthia is the one! She helped me out when I was in a tight scheduling situation and was able to fit me in on short notice. Milo was a little grumpy at first because he hadn’t seen her in a while, but Cynthia was patient, understanding, and somehow won him over. She handled everything with care and professionalism. She even came back the next day to walk Milo for me, which I greatly appreciated. I am so grateful for Cynthia’s services and the peace of mind she provided. She is reliable, kind, and truly cares about the pets she works with. I will absolutely continue to use her services in the future. Highly recommend! 😘

I the MOST wonderful experience with Kaylee. She was amazing, highly communicative, and truly went above and beyond in caring for my dog who struggles with separation anxiety. She was attentive, patient, and proactive in managing my dog’s needs which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. She was a true lifesaver. I would highly recommend Kaylee to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I would have loved to continue working with her long term if she wasn’t moving to a different state, and I would do so in a heartbeat.
