“Alexandra was so great with Maker! She always included pictures from her visits and answered quickly when I messaged her for any reason. She was great! Occasionally a little late with scheduled times but that doesn't bother Maker at all so she was perfect for us!”

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 have dog sat for various relatives and friends over the years, as well as worked at dog day cares for 3 years. Good at providing a calm environment for dogs and have picked up training techniques from my old boss at the dog daycare. Had a dog of my own for 13 years and know various locations to walk and adventure, as well as a great sense of my neighborhood. I’m trustworthy and will provide good care for your dog. I have a car and am able to drive realtively far to come to your needs. The dogs will be in safe care under my watch. I look forward to meeting and helping out dog owners. I have a flexible availability and am patient. I’m not returning to office until February 9th and have plenty of time in the meantime to care for your pets! Upon returning to work, I will be available weekday evenings & all day on weekends unless otherwise indicated. For drop in visits, I am respectful and cognizant of client’s homes. I foster a safe environment, and am patient when working with your pet(s).

About: Hey there – my name is Nancy, and I’ve taken care of dogs the majority of my life. Starting with my childhood dog, Bandit, a mixed Shepard. As an adult I had a pit bull/boxer mix, Vedder. I had Vedder for 12 years. After Vedder, I had a beagle/boxer mix, Killian. I currently do not have a dog of my own. This gives me plenty of time to take care of your dog I am an experienced sitter, and did walker who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. I’m currently not working. This gives me plenty of time to spend with your pet. I’m available both days and nights to watch, walk or play with your dog. To ensure the safety and well-being of pets under my care, I would first familiarize myself with each pet’s specific needs, behaviors, and any medical conditions. This includes understanding their diet, exercise routine, allergies, or medications they may be on. During walks, I would keep them on a leash at all times. Moreover, for both walks and sitting sessions, I’d maintain regular communication with the pet owners by providing updates and promptly reporting any unusual behavior. Maintaining vigilance, open communication, and being prepared for unexpected situations are crucial aspects of ensuring the safety and well-being of pets under my care. I am not a certified dog trainer, but I did successfully train my pit bull/boxer, Vedder, and my beagle/boxer, Killian. When you board your dog with me, you can expect a quality stay. Your dog will not only be well looked after, they will go on some cool walking adventures. I’m located near three beaches, and three parks. One of the parks has a bike/walking path. I keep the owner updated with pics and text. I also use a walking app that shows where we walked, how far we walked and how long we walked. When you leave your dog in my care, you can enjoy your vacation knowing that your dog is also having fun.

“Ange was absolutely wonderful. She was very communicative and always quick to respond to messages, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She sent photos and a thoughtful summary after each visit, something we truly appreciated. We came home to a clean house and, most importantly, happy and healthy cats. We would definitely book Ange again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

About: I am an very active healthcare professional who loves dogs. I have owned dogs my whole life and naturally have a strong affinity towards all animals. As a healthcare professional, it is both an instinct and passion to care for others. I am currently waiting for my new job to start so I am flexible Monday through Friday! Once my job starts I will be available anytime after 5 during the week! I will be sure to give any and all pets lots of affection and stimulation to make sure they are getting the best possible care while their owner is away!

Deanna L.

“Tommy was wonderful with our two cats. They were especially patient with our elderly cat who needed more time to eat. They took their time feeding and playing with the cats, made sure the doors were locked, and were kind enough to bring in any packages that were delivered when we were gone. Would definitely contact again next time we need a sitter.”

Hind G.

About: I have never lived without a pet. My love for animals started at an early age and I gained professional experience over time. I’m an animal welfare advocate, a former receptionist at VCA Animal Hospitals and former Pet Care Specialist at Boston Red Dog. I also have 100+ five-star reviews on another pet care platform, reflecting consistent and trusted care. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including senior pets and special needs pets who need extra patience and gentle handling. I understand how important it is to feel confident when choosing someone to care for your pet, so I prioritize clear communication, safety, and detailed updates throughout every service, including report cards. I’m also comfortable giving oral medications when mixed with food or treats, following pet parent instructions carefully. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and at ease while you have peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I currently work fully remote from 9–5, which gives me flexibility for drop-ins, pet sitting in your home, and limited boarding in my home. I’m also available weekday evenings and throughout the weekend. At the moment, pet sitting in a client’s home is usually the best fit for me and allows pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I share my home with a 12-year-old Chihuahua mix and a 7-year-old blind cat. Both are gentle and accustomed to calm introductions with other pets. Because I currently have pets at home, boarding is best suited for smaller dogs and pets that are comfortable around cats and other dogs. I prioritize safety, patience, and making sure pets feel comfortable at their own pace. I keep a checklist for every pet to make sure feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box cleaning, medications, and routines are all completed consistently and thoroughly. I also provide regular updates, photos, and videos throughout visits so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. If boarding is needed, I provide cozy beds, blankets, clean bowls, fresh water, and can accommodate your pet’s food, treats, toys, and medications based on your instructions. Most importantly, I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved!

“Jessica walked our dog several times when we were away and was very responsive from booking to her visits. Murph had a great time and he was well taken care of! We'd definitely book her again.”

Allison R.

“Jose did such a wonderful job caring for our cats while we were away. Even if they were rather shy and rarely showed their faces, Jose ensured we were kept apprised of any activity to ensure they were alive and well. This is such a huge thing for us. We would absolutely recommend his services to cat families in the area.”

“Danielle did a great job caring for my kitty! It was nice to hear updates that she was doing well while I was away. It seems like they really developed a bond! :D”
