About: I’m a lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of breeds, from energetic puppies to quirky seniors. I work from home, so I’m able to offer tons of attention, exercise, and consistency throughout the day. Having lived with everything from labs to Pyrenees mixes, I understand the importance of meeting each dog’s unique needs, whether that’s structured walks, gentle senior care, or patient socialization for shy pups. I’m comfortable with big dogs and independent personalities, and my own experience training puppies and supporting older dogs means your pup is in caring, knowledgeable hands.What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for a variety of breeds—including puppies and seniors—and my work-from-home flexibility means dogs get real companionship and attention all day. I understand big, independent, and quirky personalities, and I prioritize individualized care, from puppy training to gentle support for older dogs. I take the time to get to know every dog, building trust through patience, routine, and play. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life, not an afterthought. Since I work from home, I’m able to integrate walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day—whether it’s a morning stroll, afternoon games in the park, or relaxed evenings together. My routine is flexible, so dogs always get outside for fresh air and exercise and receive plenty of attention between my work sessions. On weekends, I love exploring new neighborhoods, local parks, or heading to the beach—always bringing dogs along for new adventures. Whether it’s active pups needing stimulation or seniors who prefer a calm presence, I adapt my days to make sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and part of my everyday world. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and integrated into my daily routine—regular walks to nearby parks or the beach, supervised playtime, and cozy rest spots throughout my home. I keep to each dog’s familiar schedule as much as possible, including feeding times, exercise, and any training or medication routines. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, making sure pets feel secure in their own environment. I follow all instructions closely, from special diet needs to unique quirks or favorite toys, and keep in touch with updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and cared for. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own—with patience, structure, and genuine affection—whether they’re here for a day, a weekend, or longer.

“Yogi had such a wonderful time! It was obvious how much fun he had and how well cared for he was. Ruya went above and beyond with updates, sending lots of photos and videos.

“My sitter got sick and Jim stepped up very last minute to watch Freddie and was so wonderful. Very communicative and sweet with Freddie. His dog is super cute too! It’s always a little nerve racking using someone new, but I felt very comfortable leaving Fred with Jim. He also seemed to have a good time and was nice and calm when I picked him up. I would highly recommend Jim!”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life. I grew up beside them and learned how to care for them at a very early age. I have experience with many different breeds, sizes, personalities, ages; from dogs who were my family, from my friend’s dogs to dogs belonging to people in my local community. Since I’ve been living in Boston for almost a year now, I have scouted out great routes to walk dogs to local spots for play and enjoyment, especially in nature. Special skills include dog breed knowledge, basic commands training, clicker training, animal welfare, and basic wilderness first aid training. I work from home 70% of the time and my schedule is wonderfully quite flexible. I am able to meet basic needs like potty breaks or walks and easily adjust my routine around the dog’s needs. I have worked with many different dog personalities and characteristics before and can take care of your dog however needed. I allow dogs on the bed and couch, have plenty of treats on hand, have many pet friendly locations nearby to take them, etc.

“Adriel was so good with Dilly while I was away. He was very patient with her when she was nervous about leaving me and was very attentive, giving me frequent updates.”

Bridget N.

“A truly 5 star experience. Cameron was easy to communicate with and work with. Just off vibe alone I knew my dog was in good hands when he was picked up. Throughout the day I was consistently updated with photos and videos of my dog out and about. I highly highly recommend Cameron to anyone in need of a dog-sitter. Next time I’m in Boston I will 100% be reaching out to him first. Finn will miss Cameron and Rosie a ton!!! 5 stars!!”

About: My mother is a dog trainer and boarder, so I have helped take care of dogs and cats ever since I was very young. Growing up on a farm, I have experience caring for all kinds of animals, so I am very equipped to handle your pets and keep them healthy:) I am currently a student with a very flexible schedule, and am able to stop by for visits throughout the day, or do over-night stays close to my school. I am flexible and accomodating, and will follow whatever routine/instructions you give me to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible when you are away!

“Lauren was very responsive and easy to work with. She was a great communicator and provided me updates with pictures of Oliver throughout the day.”

Brendan C.

“Bridget had a great stay and was well cared for! We really appreciated the updates and attention to detail.”

About: While I am new to these services professionally, I grew up with 4 small dogs (all at once!) and have lots of experience with senior and disabled dogs. Most comfortable with small to medium sized. Starting April 25th, I am completely free for services at almost any time of day! This is my free summer time as a student, but my schedule will change stating July when I begin work. I will update my calendar accordingly! I am always attentive to needs or concerns. I have a 650 sq ft apartment with plenty of parks and places for walking nearby. No crates, no other roommates but I stay home most of the day.

About: Your pets will be in loving, reliable hands with me. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family, giving them so much attention and comfort that they won’t even notice you’re away🥰 I’m a stay at home mom with a very flexible schedule, so I’m available most days and can easily adjust to your pet’s needs. Whether your pet requires extra cuddles, calm companionship, or lots of playtime, I’m here to make sure they feel safe and happy. When your pet stays in my home, they become part of my family from the moment they walk through the door. I provide a clean, safe, and pet friendly environment where they can relax, explore, and feel completely comfortable. I have 1 cat. Her name is Emerald she is 2 years old and she is absolutely spoiled. She has her own wall climbing catch tree that she loves and tons of toys.

“Emma was great with our 12 year old cockapoo. She was communicative, on time, and sent lots of pictures. Quincy loved his time with her and we'll be using her again!”

Brenna B.

“Tae was terrific! This was the first time that Tae took care of our 2-year-old puppy, Sammy. Tae was very quick to respond, totally flexible, and a pleasure to work with. It was very easy to set up a Meet & Greet, and Sammy and I both felt very comfortable playing together at a park as we got to know Tae and her doodle, Udon. After the daycare, I received a detailed report card with great pictures, and Sammy came home happy and tired. I would highly recommend Tae's services and look forward to the next time that she can care for our pup.”
