“Megan was great with our Inca. I appreciate the detail and care she provided through responsive communication. It’s great to know we have someone a available when we travel to the Delaware shore. Thank you Megan and family! 🩷👩🦰👨🦱👧🐾”
“Jessica was great. She responded very quickly on very short notice. Felt very good dropping Leif off and Leif looked great picking him up. I would use this boarder again in the future.”
“Mary Sue is a great host, you can tell she loves the dogs and takes great care of them. She watches our dog every time we vacation in Rehoboth and we are glad to know our dog is so well taken care of. ‘Til next time!”
“Janice lovingly watched our 1-year old dog, Libby, as an overnight boarder for 3 weeks while on extended vacation. Highly recommend. Janice is super attentive, sent daily updated with even pictures of Libby playing and sleeping with other dogs. Upon return Libby was happy, well-groomed, and healthy. Thank you Janice! We will be back.”
“We were a bit apprehensive about leaving our 2-year-old Cavapoo, Ollie, with a sitter for the first time, but Sylvia put our minds at ease the moment we met her. She is incredibly caring and attentive. I loved receiving the photo updates showing Ollie happy and enjoying his stay—it meant I didn't have to worry about him at all! I can’t recommend Sylvia enough for anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”
“Ellie had the best stay and did not want to leave! Michele provided exceptional care, did a fantastic job communicating and sent adorable picture updates. We felt like she was staying with a close family friend.”
“My 2 girls were so happy with Sandee, i could not have asked for better care of my two spoilt pups! I am very grateful to Sandee for taking my girls for the afternoon, which freed us up to do the necessary things related to purchasing a home. I won't hesitate to go back to Sandee and trust her with my precious fur babies. Thank you Sandee!!!!”
“Kelly was great. This was Murphy’s first time staying with Kelly and he settled in very quickly. She sent lots of updates and photos which helped to know he was doing well in a new place. Kelly was very flexible and accommodating when we had to shift pick up and drop off times a bit. She offered to pick Murphy up and drop him off since we were so close. I definitely plan to use Kelly’s services again.”
“Carlie and her husband were an excellent pet sitters for our Jack Russell dog. They were very caring, reliable and accommodating to our schedule. We traveled from New York and be were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our pet because she was in good hands.”
About: I am a proud pup and kitty parent. I have been taking care of pets professionally sine 2005. I provide daily dog walking, doggie boarding and kitty pet sitting services in the Milton area. Fabulous references to attest to my quality care. Contact me for a free consult. I look forward to adding you to the Animal Lovers family! I accept dogs that are friendly to all dogs and humans. No aggressive behaviors. I also can only accept potty trained dogs. I can administer medications and only work outside the home part-time so can easily provide potty breaks and walks every 4 hours. My dog Benny is very friendly and loves doggie company! I am available for daily dog walking Monday thru Friday and petsitting 7 days per week. I am available for boarding as schedule permits as I only take 1 dog, dog family, at a time. I have a home in Milton with a 6 foot privacy fence. I have 1 pup, a Yorkie poo who is used to welcoming fun pup friends. I am never out of my home more than 4 hours when I have pup boarders. Your pup(s) is my priority and treated like a member of my family.
“This was my first time using Lori and I was so impressed. I am so happy I found her for my two babies. After a horrible experience with a local boarding place she eased my fears and treated my dogs like her own . I will definitely use her again it made my trip less stressful. Thank you Lori ❤️”
“Susan and Bob are the absolute best! My dog Gemma was very well cared for and the pictures they sent to me showed it by the contented and happy look on her face. It makes a big difference to me to leave her somewhere she’s treated like family. Thank you!”
“Staying with Kelly and her family was perfect for Eva. She and Kelly’s dog, Charlie had a great time together. Just as I had hoped, she was totally wiped out from all the running and playing.”
“Nacho is a very selective Chihuahua who immediately adored Nicole. He exhibited none of the signs of anxiety he generally does when he meets someone new (or even someone he has met several times). He accepted Nicole as one of his special people and behaved as well (if not better!) for her than he does at home. Nicole sent us photos of Nacho napping, taking walks and looking completely adorable while he was in her care; we could see how content he was and were able to have peace of mind while we were traveling. Nacho will definitely be staying with Nicole the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Martha was amazing with Koda! She sent me updates and pics. He was smiling and I’m sure he was happy, especially when she arranged a playdate for him. He’s really social and she was on top of that. Great home and atmosphere for my pup. Many, many thanks”
“We were very pleased with Cory, he kept me informed of how teddy was doing. Even though Cory has cats and teddy was not a fan of them he handle the situation great. !!!!!”
“5-stars for Jen G! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I think we’re all nervous leaving our fur babies with a new sitter. No worries with Jen. She treats them like her own and they get spoiled with love and attention. Her assistants Baxter and Rigby were a joy for our Tanner to play with. He can’t wait to return! Jen’s communication along with many hilarious photos from their playtime were excellent and reassuring. Thank you, Jen!”
“Paige was great. She was available on short notice and was accommodating to a weird drop-off time due to bad weather. She was attentive to my animals needs and it was obvious my pup had a great time with her. She sent tons of pictures and videos and gave comprehensive daily updates. I would absolutely recommend this sitter and will be using her again in the future.”
“Michele and Paul were great! I was sent super cute pictures everyday! I love how they included Mayzie in everything they did while they had her! I will definitely use her again!”

About: Cat Boarding: Your cat’s comfort and sense of security are my top priorities. I only care for one family of cats at a time, whether that’s one cat or several cats who live together.

Your cats will have their own private bedroom upstairs, where my dog is not allowed, giving them a quiet and comfortable space that is all theirs. I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day and am able to give your cats plenty of attention and care. I can administer medication as well. Welcoming both overnight and long-term stays, I will give your cats plenty of individual attention while keeping their routine as familiar as possible. My goal is to provide a safe, peaceful, and comfortable home away from home where your cats can truly relax while you’re away.

My dog is very nervous and reserved to anyone else but me so I get it lol

“Extremely calm and knowledgeable. Knew exactly how to introduce our Boston Terrier to her own dogs. Everything went smoothly. Her home was immaculate and organized. She sent pictures frequently.

“I cannot say enough great things about Michele! She has given me my life back! I have two little rescues that are highly reactive and do not like anyone, so consequently I have been unable to leave them.

Couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Janice lovingly watched our 1-year old dog, Libby, as an overnight boarder for 3 weeks while on extended vacation. Highly recommend. Janice is super attentive, sent daily updated with even pictures of Libby playing and sleeping with other dogs. Upon return Libby was happy, well-groomed, and healthy. Thank you Janice! We will be back.”
“Carlie and her husband were an excellent pet sitters for our Jack Russell dog. They were very caring, reliable and accommodating to our schedule. We traveled from New York and be were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our pet because she was in good hands.”
“This was my first time using Lori and I was so impressed. I am so happy I found her for my two babies. After a horrible experience with a local boarding place she eased my fears and treated my dogs like her own . I will definitely use her again it made my trip less stressful. Thank you Lori ❤️”
“Susan and Bob are the absolute best! My dog Gemma was very well cared for and the pictures they sent to me showed it by the contented and happy look on her face. It makes a big difference to me to leave her somewhere she’s treated like family. Thank you!”
“Staying with Kelly and her family was perfect for Eva. She and Kelly’s dog, Charlie had a great time together. Just as I had hoped, she was totally wiped out from all the running and playing.”
“Nacho is a very selective Chihuahua who immediately adored Nicole. He exhibited none of the signs of anxiety he generally does when he meets someone new (or even someone he has met several times). He accepted Nicole as one of his special people and behaved as well (if not better!) for her than he does at home. Nicole sent us photos of Nacho napping, taking walks and looking completely adorable while he was in her care; we could see how content he was and were able to have peace of mind while we were traveling. Nacho will definitely be staying with Nicole the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“Martha was amazing with Koda! She sent me updates and pics. He was smiling and I’m sure he was happy, especially when she arranged a playdate for him. He’s really social and she was on top of that. Great home and atmosphere for my pup. Many, many thanks”
“We were very pleased with Cory, he kept me informed of how teddy was doing. Even though Cory has cats and teddy was not a fan of them he handle the situation great. !!!!!”
“Paige was great. She was available on short notice and was accommodating to a weird drop-off time due to bad weather. She was attentive to my animals needs and it was obvious my pup had a great time with her. She sent tons of pictures and videos and gave comprehensive daily updates. I would absolutely recommend this sitter and will be using her again in the future.”
“Michele and Paul were great! I was sent super cute pictures everyday! I love how they included Mayzie in everything they did while they had her! I will definitely use her again!”
“Brenda watched our dog for 10 days. She sent us photos while we were away and took great care of Cody. He enjoyed playing with her dog Gonzo and was very content when we picked him up. we will definitely have Cody stay with her again.”
“Christina was extremely nice, communicative, and instantly connected with my dog, Sushi. Sushi had so much fun with Christina’s other dogs and I think she will be a reliable person to bring her back to! I highly recommend you bring your pet to stay with Christina ?”
“Debbie (and Tim) were so welcoming to our Jackson during a family beach trip. We were in need of sitting and boarding for a week and were lucky to have found them. They were easy to communicate and coordinate with for drop-off and pick-up. We even got a great tip from them to visit a local preserve with walking trails for Jackson (and kayaking on the Bay for our kids). Most importantly, Jackson had a great time with both of them. He didn't even want to leave 😂! Thanks for making his stay so wonderful and look forward to coming back on a future trip!”
“Jenna kept me updated with photos throughout Sunny’s stay. She was super responsive from our first contact. I could tell Sunny was relaxed in her home and happy to hang out with her new kitty friend, Boo.”
“Bob was fantastic and his location is very convenient if you're staying in OC and can't bring your pup to your hotel. He sent lots of videos and photos throughout our stay, which we really appreciated, and he even gave our dog Lila some special gifts and treats. He was extremely responsive, caring, and accommodating. We'd book with him again if we're back in the area.”
