“Zwany is super nice and easy to work with. She is communicative and follows all instructions. Her goal is the best for your pups and she always accomplishes that goal. She also sends all toys and materials you send with your pup back cleaner then they started which is so nice after a trip, one less thing to worry about!”
“Dakota and Jax had a great stay with Jing! I felt happy and confident knowing they were having a great time through getting pictures sent throughout the day of the doggies playing. She has a great yard for the dogs to play in and set up a meet and greet before so they dogs could meet her and her husband!”
“Tianyue took great care of Elliot. She sent lots of photos and managed his medications and eye drops very well. I felt super comfortable leaving Elliot with her for nearly a week.”
“Kristen and Timothy were fantastic! They were thoughtful and caring and treated my pup Nova like their own! They were super responsive and provided me with ample updates and pictures to let me know how well she’s doing! Great fenced in yard and dog friendly home! Highly recommend and would most certainly use again!!”
“Our dog Romeo absolutely loves his “vacations” at Grigorii’s house! Grigorii takes the dogs on hikes, teaches new tricks, and tolerates Romeo’s incessant barking at any animals he sees on the TV or out the window. Highly recommend his services!”
“Tyler and his gf are really responsible and nice. Meimei and Jackson had a really good time. I think they miss Tyler and his gf already. We will definitely chose Tyler again!!”
“Jamie was incredibly sweet and welcoming from the start making sure Cosmo felt comfortable during the meet-and-greet as well as his stay.Her adorable pup Luna played such a big role in helping Cosmo settle in quickly, and before we knew it, he was completely comfortable with their family. Usually Cosmo prefers staying in his crate while boarding, but with Jamie’s family he became so relaxed that he preferred their bed instead, which truly showed how safe and loved he felt there. Jamie also kept us updated regularly, giving us so much peace of mind. This is honestly the fastest I’ve ever seen Cosmo warm up to a family, and we’re definitely looking forward to many more stays. Highly recommend Jamie and her wonderful family for anyone looking for loving care for their furry buddies!”
“Theresa was amazing with my dogs. They received excellent care and attention including some great one on one walks! Her home is set up to meet the dogs’ needs both inside and in her fenced yard. I received numerous updates with pics and videos throughout my dogs’ stay. She is a great communicator around planning and was flexible in response to a change of the time of my pickup. Couldn’t be happier!”
“Kimberly and Brian were wonderful! They took sent lots of updates and pictures of my pup and took great care of him. With a senior dog who has to take medication morning and night, it was a relief to have him in such good friends. And he and their dog, Lola, became buds by the end of it. Would absolutely recommend them!”
“Second time booking and very satisfied! They are great with ginger and she loves staying with them. Loved the creative updates! Thank you for taking care of ginger”
“Nola and Damian took great care of our Goldendoodle Rocky. They are very responsive, friendly, and attentive. We are looking forward to booking with them again the future.”
“Another wonderful visit for my pup! I’m so grateful for the care you put into her visits, and the peace of mind I have knowing she is so well taken care of. Thank you!”
“Brittany was amazing looking after Charlie for a night. She was in constant communication and gave us updates on how she was doing. Also added a lot of pictures for us to enjoy and see how she was 10/10 would have her dog sit again.”
“John was an excellent sitter for our dog Negan. John kept us updated with pictures. Negan loved playing with the other dogs that he came home tired. We definitely will be using John as a future sitter.”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover and dog mom who is actively involved with a local rescue called Gals Best Pal. I have successfully fostered and homed over 13 dogs of all ages and sizes, and additionally volunteer with transports and events. For years, I have stepped in to help care for friends’ and family’s dogs when needed. Most recently, I spent the last year caring for my soul dog of six years who was diagnosed and unfortunately passed away from a rare chronic illness. Due to this experience, I am comfortable with dogs who need extra attention and daily medication since that’s the care I provided for her. Through caretaking and my fosters, I’ve become experienced with a wide range of personalities and needs. I also work from home 5 days a week, so your dog gets company and consistency all day, not just a quick visit! *Please note that there’s a friendly 8 month old GSD puppy in the house. If your pet prefers to be solo during their stay, my home can easily accommodate a no-contact visit. I’m no stranger to this, as my late dog preferred her independence too🙂 Feel free to reach out with any questions! I work from home full time, so most days your dog gets steady company, walks, and playtime built right into my routine. My only standing plans are a Monday night writing class and a Tuesday night pottery class. Both are just a couple hours each, so I’m happy to arrange coverage or crate time while I’m gone. My home currently includes my male partner and Maple, a German Shepherd puppy who’s very social. I’m happy to arrange supervised introductions if your dog wants company during their stay. And while Maple is a sweet girl, I also understand that not every dog wants a roommate 🙂 I can easily set up a no contact stay if your pup prefers time alone. Around the house, older and trained dogs get free range. Puppies who aren’t yet potty trained follow a crate routine and stay in a designated section of the house for their safety. I also have a separate office where all dogs get to hang out with me all day for extra company. The yard and patio out back aren’t fenced, so leashes or long leads come out for outdoor time. My late dog taught me just how much a pet’s environment matters to their comfort, so I take this seriously. I want every pet to feel genuinely welcome and secure in my home!
“Heidi and her family were awesome with Gracie. Sh really enjoyed her time there playing with other dogs. They made here feel safe and at home. Great people. Gracie loved them and I felt very comfortable leaving her with them. They updated me daily with pictures and videos: will definitely book them again. Jeannie and Gracie”
“This was our second time with Ashley, and my dog Charlee was so excited to see her when I dropped her off! She takes great care of her and we will definitely use her in the future.”
“Joseph was awesome! He communicated well and sundae seemed to have a good time with him. He’s also super friendly and flexible which was great for us as our travel schedule ended up changing.”

“Jill was an amazing pet sitter to my kitties. Litter box was scooped and neat. The kitties had plenty of attention, food and playtime with Jill. Highly recommend Jill and I am so happy to have found Jill who lives quite nearby.”
“Love having Cari take care of my cat Ruby! She sent us pictures of her every day and made sure she had food and water. Ruby is a shy little cat but Cari was able to get her out of her shell and by the 3rd day Ruby was letting Cari pet her. I’d recommend Cari to anyone looking for a pet sitter”
“I would highly recommend Amanda, as she’s a delightful and positive young woman who clearly loves animals and took very good care of our two dogs. She took notes during our meet n greet and made sure to attend to all their needs. We would definitely book her again!”
“I had an amazing experience with Tiesha as my cat sitter! She followed all the written instructions perfectly & was always on schedule with my cat's medication of feeding. Tiesha kept me updated with adorable pictures & her progress. Most importantly, she successfully took my cat to the vet for her regular fluid dose. I'll definitely continue booking with Tiesha. She made my cat's care stress-free & gave me peace of mind while I was away. She's fantastic!”

I’m really sorry but I do not offer care/ services at my home. Unfortunately my dog is reactive so I cannot take that chance with her.
“Nathalia was terrific! She took great care of the puppers and kept me updated with how they were while I was away. I would highly recommend her if you need a reliable sitter!”

“Jessica was absolutely wonderful! She was extremely communicative throughout the whole trip, and Rick absolutely loved her — she was even able to brush out a knot in his fur (and he usually hates being brushed!). We will be using Jessica again! ❤️”

“Zachary was fantastic with our doggie! He was kind, communicative and responsive from the onset and sent photos several times a day, which was great. Our doggie can be initially cautious but Zachary and their adorable pup seemed to make him feel right at home. Overall great experience and we'd love for them to watch our Theo next time we're up in the area. Thanks again!”
“Kristen and Timothy were amazing! They were super accommodating with a short-notice request and we were able to meet ahead of time to make introductions. Kristen gave our puppy a wonderful fun day, and she passed out all night and definitely had a blast! I highly recommend them!”
“Jaime is a true dog lover! She made Louie feel completely comfortable in her home and with her own dog. It was a beautiful day, and they spent most of the time in her large, fenced-in backyard. Louie loves to fetch a ball, so she made sure to play that with him. He was tired when he got home from all of the fun at Jaime's. I would highly recommend Jaime!!”
“Diane (and family!) are wonderful. Their's is a very happy home and Huck had a great time. When your dog races up to the door to be dropped off, you know you've found the right place. His review is the one that really counts in my mind and Huck gives Diane a resounding five stars!!”
“Theresa took care of my dogs for several days while I was on vacation earlier this year. We had such a great experience and brought our pups back to her again for daycare! Theresa sent photos and videos of our fur babies. She also took them out on a long walk. My dogs have so much fun when they’re with her. Thank you Theresa!”
“Marjorie had a wonderful time at Alena’s house. We are traveling all the way from Minnesota and found her on the website in Weymouth MA. Such a hot day we could not take the dog with us to meet a friend. Alena made my visit with a college roommate possible. Alena sent lots of reports and photos. I strongly recommend Alena.”
“This was my first time using Rover. Tiffany and Steve were SO GOOD and patient at explaining things and offering tips and enrichment suggestions. Their insights were really helpful — especially as I’m only two months into having my rescue. It’s clear they’re very knowledgeable about animal behavior and really care about your pet and your relationship with your pet. For context, after a meet and great, my dog Feta did one day of daycare to make sure the situation works for boarding. This should make any other pet owner feel good knowing that Tiffany and Steve assess the dogs in their care to make sure the situation is good for all. Highly recommend!!!”

“Brendan was amazing with my dog, Birdie! This was Birdie’s very first time at doggy daycare, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for her. Brendan was incredibly friendly, warm, and accommodating from the start—he immediately put both me and Birdie at ease. He was so communicative throughout the day, sending updates and photos that made me feel totally comfortable and reassured. It’s always hard leaving your pup with someone new, but Brendan made it easy. I felt like Birdie was in such loving, capable hands. Highly recommend!”

“Matt and Jennifer were wonderful with our 3 year old dog, Ori. This was the first time boarding our dog outside of our own home, and with anyone outside of our extended family. We were a little nervous about boarding, as our dog wasn't especially socialized with other dogs. But Matt and Jennifer were very sensitive to this, and allowed us do a day visit where we left Ori with them for a few hours. They shared regular pictures and text updates to show us that Ori was doing fine, having a good time walking and hanging with them and the other dogs they were sitting. We ended up boarding Ori with them for 8 days, and it went great. Ori became "one of the pack", doing group walks with Matt and Jennifer's dog and the other dogs they were watching. We saw that she was getting snuggles and downtime with their daughter. We picked Ori up after her stay where it was clear she had a great week, with lots of outdoor play and exercise, and nice family time indoors. Thank you Matt and Jennifer- we will happily ask you to watch Ori again for us! :)”
“Kerrin and Chris were amazing with our dog Lizzie—she had an absolute blast staying with them. They sent daily pictures, which gave us total peace of mind, and it was clear she was being cared for like part of their own family. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“Wonderful experience. Sarah took in our two pups on a last minute booking for the weekend, made sure she had all the details about their care, and sent pictures of how well they were doing. We were confident they were in good hands.”
“What can I say? Nothing says more than watching my dogs’ reactions when they see Jess - pure excitement! They absolutely adore her and her family, and that tells me everything I need to know. Going away used to be so hard for me because I hated leaving my two BFFs behind. Now, as much as they are still my life, I can walk away feeling completely at ease knowing they’re happy, loved, and in the very best hands. There’s no worrying or feeling guilty - they’re too busy having their own little vacation with Jess and her family! Also, I can always tell when I pick them up that they’ve had a great time. They come home happy, relaxed, and completely themselves — which, to me, says it all! We feel incredibly lucky to have found Jess and her loving family to care for our fur babies. Nothing is better than going on vacation, guilt-free, knowing your little buddies are away having fun, too! While away, peace of mind means everything to me, which is one of the many reasons why I so highly recommend Jess.”
“Zoe was great taking care of Rosie. She communicated well and it was clear that Rosie really enjoyed her stay and even got to see Zoe’s office :) I will definitely book Zoe again! Thank you!”
“Mario has watched our dog several times now, and we've had a great experience working with him. Our dog is always excited to see him, and Mario is very communicative leading up to and during her stays.”
“Ellis had a short stay with Emily and Daniel but will definitely be back! They sent great pics and updates and were flexible when our plans shifted slightly. Their dog seemed super sweet too and it looks like the pups got along well!”
“Chloe had a great time with Rachel and her dog Mya! She was very flexible with drop off and pick up times and sent lots of pictures! Very convenient location across the street from a dog park too.”
