“Bethany stepped in to pet sit for us last minute, and we are so thankful for that. She took excellent care of our pup and our home we highly highly recommend and she will be our first request for all future needs!”
“Karli is friendly, upbeat and has a lot of experience with dogs. She was respectful of my little dog's anxious tendencies which allowed him to warm up to her quickly. I appreciated all the updates and photos she sent while I was away. Somehow, Karli even helped him be a more patient walker, he pulls so much less than before she watched him. Thank you, Karli!”
“Christina was excellent with our very energetic coonhound! She was very responsive and communicative. We came home to a very happy dog and clean house. We'll definitely ask her to watch our dog again!”
“Devon house-sat and looked after our two dogs on August 11/12, 2025. Devon's great! Very kind with our dogs, speedy with communications, and conscientious with taking care of everything just right. We wholeheartedly recommend Devon to take care of your pets and/or house-sit for you! Thanks Devon!”
“Stacy was superb! We had a last minute need due to our flight getting cancelled and Stacy was very communicative and flexible during a moment of a lot of stress. My pups were very well taken care of and I got lots of pictures. My house was well taken care of as well. Would definitely book her again in the future.”
“Andrea went above and beyond ..of what we needed and expected..she was attentive and make sure my little guy was good while I was way out of town. I almost definitely recommend her. I will most definitely use her very soon.”
“Aaron was great and easy to connect with for a day of watching our big dog. Grateful he was open to a meet and greet first and updated throughout the time he was watching our boy 🐶”
“Levi was AMAZING! We were so lucky she had availability when we booked last minute. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to dogs and their behaviors while being very patient and understanding with our nervous rescue. She sent many pictures to keep us at ease while we were away and left the house cleaner than when we left! Chanel typically doesn’t clique with new people but she was so happy with Levi, we are so appreciative!”
“Gabriella was awesome with our dog! Super friendly, easy to communicate with, and clearly loves what she does. She took our dog on long walks and kept us in the loop, which we really appreciated. Would definitely recommend her!”
“We have two pets that require daily meds (multiple times a day) and Tommy was enthusiastic to learn and care for them. He was always on time and extremely communicative. We got daily pics of our babies too which was a massive plus for us. Thanks again, Tommy!”
“Victoria (Rev) did a fantastic job and I would 100% recommend her to anyone needing a sitter. She was easy to communicate with prior to & during her stay and sent frequent updates and pictures of the pups. She stayed in my home & left it very clean- She even took out the trash which I didn’t expect her to do annd appreciated. My pups are kind of high maintenance (2 Maltese) & Rev did a fantastic job taking care of them. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a sitter!”
“Giovanna was very proactive and made sure to have all the information to watch over my puppy. Her calming presence made for an easy departure. I would definitely recommend!”
“Sara was great! She responded on short notice and agreed to watch our dog over thanksgiving weekend. We have an older, large Rottweiler with some special needs and Sara couldn't have been more accommodating. She was communicative and took great care of our house as well! Our dog had a great time with her - would highly recommend to anyone!”
“Alyssa was amazing with Gio while we were away for the weekend! She kept us updated throughout with messages and photos, and followed all of our care instructions perfectly. We felt really comfortable knowing Gio was in great hands. Would definitely book with her again!”
About: I have always been a huge lover of dogs and cats and have experience caring for my family and friend’s pets. I have also owned a fish tank for a few years and am knowledgeable on tank care. I have a decent amount of weekday and weekend availability outside of school and am happy to help care for your pets in any way that I can! Outside of school and work I have a decent amount of free time both during week days and weekends to check in, walk, feed, or play your pets. However, I do work a rotating schedule so the specific days of the week that I am free vary each week. Because of this, I won’t be able to commit to a recurring weekly booking at this time. I live in the Brookline area where there is a lot of green space for dog walking / outdoor play. I am also comfortable making home visits to check in on pets.
“Sydney took great care of our puppy and 2 cats while we were away for the long weekend. She listened to all of our instructions about the pets' quirks and sent wonderful updates. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thanks, Sydney!”

Tommy’s been helping care for my high-maintenance and anxious dog Juju for a few months now and he’s taken amazing care of her and gone the extra mile to be responsive and flexible. He’s super responsible, experienced, and absolutely loves dog. Juju adores him. I’m grateful to have established this relationship and will be working with Tommy in the future!
Masi took great care of Chewie at our apartment while we were gone for a weekend. She was very communicative and sent us lots of photos. Chewie is older with some health problems, and we felt like she was in great hands. As a bonus, Masi left our place very clean. She clearly loves dogs and we will happily book with her again!
Cyn took excellent care of our 3 small dogs in our home while we were away on a 5 day trip. Our Morkie takes awhile to warm up to strangers but Cyn was eventually able to get her to go on walks with the rest of the pack. We received updates and photos every day, walks to the nearby park and throwing the ball for our mini Aussie (sorry he doesn't retrieve the ball!). While our dogs were excited to see us return, they went right back to their normal behavior soon after. This is the main reason we hired Cyn to stay in our home and know she took special care of our loved ones. Upon picking up our mini aussie after boarding with a local business, he was "shell shocked" for a day or 2 after which is exactly why we are so grateful to have found Cyn as a caretaker.
Thanks so much for caring for the little guy! Your observation that his incontinence happened mostly when he was excited/just before a walk was very helpful to his vet. Appreciate you coming through and I was so happy when he saw you and started jumping around the lobby. Hope he wasn't too much trouble, and again, thanks for taking such good care of Pedrito!
Jamie is the best. He is very communicative, kind, caring, and professional. My dog had specific feeding requirements prescribed from the vet, and Jamie followed the program to a T. He sent pictures multiple times a day, and left the apartment in a better state than we left it. I feel very lucky to have a pet sitter like Jamie. He is top notch and I will definitely be booking him again in the future.
