About: I am a 23 year-old dogsitter and dogwalker that has been working with dogs for a third of my life (8 years). I was always surrounded by dogs growing up and would love to keep it that way :) I walk Figo every day - Labradoodle pictured in my photos :) And dogsit Jesse - Boston Terrier occasionally on weekends. Dogsitting and catsitting is extremely mixed into my schedule and I am always looking for more opportunities! When dogsitting, I am always hanging out with the dog. I walk them a little extra sometimes. And will play with them as much as their heart desires :)

Kathryn was eager to meet my boys prior to our trip. This puts everyone at ease. It’s something I look for when choosing a new pet care provider. Kathryn followed all my instructions and was communicative all during our trip. My boys were happy and content when we got home.

Chloe is amazing! My super shy cat warmed up to her and was waiting for her at the door by the end of her visit. I would recommend her 10/10 to anyone. She provided peace of mind and was thorough with her photos and communication. Thank you Chloe!!

First time booking with Caleigh, great communication and experience all around. One of our cats is almost by rule very slow to warm up to new people, has spent days under the bed when we have some houseguests, so we were surprised to see Noel out and about getting treats on Caleigh's first visit. Highly recommend!

Danae went above and beyond in taking care of our aging Abe. He’s a big sweet boy that needed a last minute buddy and she was a huge help in some complicated potty moments. We are so thankful.

Matthew and Christianna were excellent — punctual, communicative, and sent regular photo updates. Our dog was very comfortable and not stressed while we were away. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a clean, tidy house. For us, it was such a relief to be away and not worry about a thing. Highly recommended!

About: I have had dogs of all sizes my whole life. I’m a reliable and compassionate person who truly loves animals and understands the importance of making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience in administering medication to dogs. I work closely with a local rescue, which has given me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including shy or anxious pets. I am patient and attentive, and I treat every pet like family, making sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, and personalized care! I am an incoming medical student who plans to live locally. I do not currently work as I am getting ready to start school in July and spend my free time as an EMT on my town's ambulance corps, volunteering at an animal shelter, or at my local food pantry. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I want to create a calm, loving, and clean environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed. I closely follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, routines, and any special needs to make sure pets stay happy and comfortable while in my care. Through my experience working with a rescue, I’ve learned how to handle pets with different personalities and energy levels with patience and care.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and currently care for two dogs and a cat of my own. Spending time with animals has always come naturally to me & I treat them with patience, attention, and respect, just like family. I also enjoy sending photo updates during visits so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away. I’m currently working from home and have a flexible schedule throughout the week. I currently offer drop-in visits and in-home sitting, and I’m happy to provide dependable care for your pets while you’re away. I care for pets in my client’s home with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own pets. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. At this time, I provide care in clients’ homes only. Comfortable with different energy levels, routines, and administering basic medications if needed.
