Jessica and Gill were a dream come true for my geriatric, and quirky dogs. Every good thing that people say about them in these reviews was true--lots of amazing photos, very active with the dogs, communicative, responsible, great attitude, left the house in immaculate condition. We would definitely love to have them come again and stay with our dogs and house, it felt that they treated Ruby and Harry how we treat them, as beloved family members. We really couldn't give them a higher praise.

Andrew was the perfect sitter. He scheduled a time to meet with us before our trip to go over our dog's routine and house "things". We were away for 4 nights, he communicated well, and we returned to a very clean home, just as we left it. Andrew also had the initiative to strip and wash the bed linens, which was very thoughtful and helped to make our return home a smooth transition. I highly recommend Andrew and will seek him out for our next trip.

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid. I grew up with dogs, cats and bunnies. I’m a former kennel-hand at veterinary hospitals. I’m also a former Pet Car Technician at K9 Resorts Luxury Dog Hotel of Roxbury. I’ve been house/ pet sitting for years now but just by word of mouth. I’ve dealt with breeds ranging from golden retrievers and labs to rottweilers and pitbulls to chihuahuas and french bulldogs. I believe I am fully capable to properly and lovingly take care of your furry friend(s)! I’m currently working weekend nights at Roxbury Diner. I work 3 pm or 4 pm to 9 pm or 10 pm at night. I am able to take off from work if you need me over the weekend but I need 2 weeks in advance to request off! I care for your furry friends with lots of love. I like to go for walks so I am willing and able to take your pet with me!

About: Pet Care Experience With a lifelong passion for animals, I have cultivated extensive experience caring for a diverse array of creatures, including dogs, cats, non-venomous snakes, ferrets, fish, and rodents, through both personal devotion and professional work. Since childhood, I’ve been drawn to animals of all kinds—whether they have scales, fur, fins, or feathers—and have spent years nurturing my own pets while honing my skills. My professional experience includes working at a pet store, where I strengthened my expertise in animal husbandry, handling, and care for a wide variety of species, from setting up habitats for reptiles to advising on proper nutrition for fish and rodents. This hands-on background has equipped me to manage everything from a playful puppy’s energy to a senior pet’s gentle requirements. I am adept at administering medications with precision and adhering to specific dietary needs, ensuring each pet receives tailored care that keeps them healthy and happy. What Sets Me Apart from Other Sitters What distinguishes me is my blend of personal passion and professional expertise, underpinned by my pet store experience, which has deepened my understanding of diverse animal needs. My special skills include puppy training, using positive reinforcement to teach basic commands and socialization, and senior pet care, where I provide gentle support, including mobility assistance and careful monitoring of health conditions. My work with exotic animals, such as snakes and ferrets, allows me to confidently manage their unique requirements, from habitat maintenance to specialized feeding. I’m available any day, any time, regardless of weather, prioritizing safety and comfort for both your pet and myself. This is just the beginning of my journey, and my enthusiasm to continue learning ensures your pets receive exceptional, compassionate care that goes beyond the ordinary. Schedule: How Pet Care Fits into My Daily or Weekly Routine Having recently been laid off, I have chosen to pursue my lifelong passion for animals by making pet care my full-time profession. This transition allows me to dedicate my entire schedule to providing exceptional care for your pets, ensuring flexibility and availability to meet their needs. My daily and weekly routine is fully centered around pet sitting, dog walking, and animal care, accommodating creatures of all kinds—whether they have scales, fur, fins, or feathers. I am available any day, any time, regardless of weather, to provide services such as dog walking, pet sitting, administering medications, or adhering to specific dietary requirements. My professional experience at a pet store, combined with my personal expertise with dogs, cats, non-venomous snakes, ferrets, fish, and rodents, equips me to handle diverse care needs with precision and compassion. Whether it’s daily walks for an energetic puppy, gentle care for a senior pet, or specialized attention for exotic animals, I structure my schedule to prioritize the safety, comfort, and happiness of every pet. This is just the beginning of my full-time journey in pet care, and I am committed to tailoring my routine to ensure your animals receive the dedicated, loving attention they deserve. Pet Sitting (In Your Home or Mine) In Your Home: When pet sitting in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining the pet’s familiar environment to minimize stress. I conduct a thorough pre-visit consultation to understand your pet’s routine, dietary needs, and any special requirements, such as medication administration, for which I am highly experienced. I adhere strictly to your instructions, ensuring precise feeding schedules and safe handling, particularly for exotic animals like snakes or ferrets that require specialized care. To ensure safety, I inspect the home for potential hazards (e.g., exposed wires or toxic plants) and secure any areas that could pose risks. For trust, I provide regular updates with photos or videos, so you know your pet is thriving. My COVID-19 precautions include wearing a mask during interactions when physical distancing is not possible, sanitizing hands before and after visits, and disinfecting any equipment used, such as feeding tools. In My Home: When caring for pets in my home, I create a clean, safe, and welcoming space tailored to their needs. My home is pet-proofed, with secure areas for different species—crates for dogs, enclosures for reptiles, or tanks for fish—to prevent accidents and ensure comfort. I maintain a calm environment, limiting stressors like loud noises, and provide separate spaces for animals that may not coexist well, such as rodents and cats. My experience with exotic and domestic animals allows me to set up appropriate habitats, such as temperature-controlled spaces for reptiles or cozy bedding for senior pets. I am adept at administering medications and meeting specific dietary needs, ensuring every pet feels at home. To build trust, I invite clients to visit my home beforehand and provide frequent updates during their pet’s stay. Dog Walking For dog walking, I am available any day, any time, regardless of weather, and prioritize safety and comfort for both your dog (or other walkable pets, like cats or ferrets) and myself. I use sturdy, well-fitted leashes and harnesses, inspecting them before each walk to ensure reliability. My routes are chosen to avoid hazards like busy roads, and I remain vigilant for environmental risks, such as extreme weather or aggressive animals. For puppies, I incorporate training techniques like positive reinforcement to encourage good behavior, while for senior dogs, I adjust pace and distance to suit their mobility. My pet store experience enhances my ability to read animal behavior, ensuring I respond promptly to signs of stress or discomfort. To maintain trust, I communicate with clients about their pet’s walk, noting any notable behaviors or incidents. COVID-19 safety measures include sanitizing equipment after each walk and maintaining physical distance during client interactions. Animal Care (General) Whether caring for exotic or domestic animals, I tailor my approach to each species’ unique needs. For example, I ensure proper habitat conditions for snakes (e.g., correct temperature and humidity), provide engaging activities for ferrets, and monitor water quality for fish. My pet store background has honed my skills in maintaining clean and safe enclosures, preventing health issues. I am meticulous in administering medications and following dietary restrictions, whether it’s hand-feeding a finicky cat or preparing specialized meals for a rodent. To foster trust, I keep clients informed with detailed updates and am available for questions at any time. My home and any client spaces I work in are kept clean and sanitized, with strict adherence to COVID-19 protocols, such as hand hygiene and equipment disinfection, to protect both pets and clients.

About: Hi! I am Mirielle and I started dog sitting 2 years ago and I have been sharing a cat with my sister for about 4 years. My older sister has a dog that I would take care of from time to time. I love dogs and cats and I would be glad to make sure your furry friend is happy 😊 I am a college student with classes during the week, so I am flexible with my weekend schedule. Please give me a heads up beforehand! I would happily send pictures of your cat or dog cuddling and playing with me! I am also willing to do other minor responsibilities at your home such as watering plants.

About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was a kid. I’ve been dog walking and house sitting since I was 10. I’ve walked all types of dogs from small to big. I’m also a pet owner myself and have been a proud dog owner for over 10 years. I’m currently working part time so my schedule is fully available for any of your needs. My dog is friendly with others and loves to play with others I have a yard where dogs can play and I also believe in taking dogs out to open spaces to allow them to get their energy out. There’s a big field behind my house where I love to take my dog to.

About: I've grown up with dogs of all sizes—from tiny dachshunds to big shepherds—so I’m confident caring for pups with all kinds of personalities. As an avid hiker, I love staying active and always bring a four-legged friend along for the adventure. Whether it’s a slow stroll or a high-energy outing, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and exercised. 🐶⛰️ I work full time but start early, so I’m free by mid-afternoon—and I’d love to spend that time working with dogs. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and have a natural comfort around them. Whether it’s a quick walk or some extra playtime, I’ll make sure your pup is well cared for and happy! When caring for someone else’s dog, I’m always cautious and respectful—because I know I’m being trusted with a very important part of their life. I never take that lightly. I use a bright, high-visibility leash and always keep a secure handheld grip to ensure your dog’s safety. I stay fully present on every walk or home visit, constantly observing your dog’s behavior to make sure they’re comfortable, not overwhelmed, and enjoying their time. Your dog’s well-being is my top priority.

About: I happened to work as Sales & Social Media Coordinater for a dog training school a few years back, and that experience changed my whole outlook on how we care for our pets! The dog trainers I created content for taught me about positive reinforcement and reward-based methods in the process. Since moving to a different field I’ve used those skills to handle, walk, and petsit every animal from bearded dragons to cats on the side in a way that’s fun for everyone involved. Animals are my happy place & I’d love to share that joy with your family! I work 9AM to 6:15PM most days, so I am the perfect candidate for your morning and evening walks as well as overnight stays! I can do afternoon Drop-Ins for Essex County residents as well. It’s also no problem for me to house-sit and commute to work from your location. I’m very flexible - please contact me to find a schedule that works for you! I do not offer boarding services in my own home at this time, but I will always make sure I leave my client’s home as I left it when I visit and care for their beloved one 🐾

Ari has cared for my two cats multiple times. While my partner and I go away for weekend, or sometimes week long, vacations, Ari has properly managed feeding, playing, and cleaning up after our cats perfectly while maintaining cleanliness in the home (ex. cleaning up litter or hairballs.) multiple times. In times of emergency, Ari has been perfectly capable of taking our cats to the vet, and I would entrust her to do so. There was one instance where one of our cats got sick (vomiting) but luckily it wasn't a situation where she had to take her over. Still, Ari handled the situation very well. Knowing Ari for about 12 years now, I know she LOVES animals. She was always talking about the dogs, chickens, peacocks, and rabbits on her family's farm. She also used to take care of my late bunny for me on occasion. She's very gentle and empathetic. You absolutely will not be disappointed choosing Ari, especially if you have communicated special requests clearly.

Maria and her family will look out for your furry friends like if they were their own. I could tell my puppy was having a great time from the photos Maria sent during the stay. Very responsive and accommodating throughout.

Elia is an amazing, caring and loving person. For the past 4 years whenever we take vacation or simply need her to drop by to walk our dogs. She is extremely trustworthy, reliable and we are so lucky. My family and the dogs love her so much!!!

I’ve had the pleasure of watching my sister care for dogs her entire life. She’s always had a deep love for animals—especially dogs—and has spent years looking after our family pets, from energetic puppies to older dogs with specific needs. Her calm, gentle nature makes her a natural with animals, and dogs are always drawn to her warm personality. She’s incredibly reliable, kind, and responsible, and she genuinely enjoys spending time outdoors, making her the perfect companion for long walks and active pups. Whether it’s a quick potty break or an extended stay, I know any pet in her care will be safe, loved, and well looked after. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, I can’t recommend her enough.
