About: I've owned and cared for animals since high school. In addition to dogs and cats, I've owned horses since I was 16. I have been\am a foster parent for the Animal Rescue League of Boston since 2020. I'm a former puppy foster for service dogs and participated with early puppy training. I have carried those skills over to training other foster puppies and my personal dog. I have a medical background (EMT) and my daughter is a Vet Tech so I am very comfortable working with animals with medical needs and will follow any required medical plan. In addition to dogs and cats, I'd love to meet\care for your backyard farm animals; horses, pot-bellied pigs, chickens, goats, sheep, etc. I have experience with some of these animals through ownership and fostering opportunities. I'm open to meeting and learning about new friends. We currently have 4 dogs, 4 cats, and 2 horses in our home. All our animals are our babies and I'll care for yours as if they were my own. I'm currently unemployed so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I'm available for petsitting any day of the week and can work around any personal appointments. Boarding in my home is restricted to cats or other small animals. Puppies (under 1 year) may be accomodated, no adult dogs. For cats; we have a dedicated "cat room" to keep your pet separated from our pets. The room has a screen door so they don't feel locked away and can be part of our household while remaining safe. I will follow your pet care plan while in your home. For Puppies; all dogs are fed separately to avoid food aggression situations. All puppies will be crated for meals and sleeping overnight. If your puppy is not crate trained, I will work with them to ensure they are comfortable and not afraid. I can support your potty training schedule to maintain consistency.
“Finn and Hadley loved their time with Luiz and his family. I felt very comfortable that my dogs were being cared for like they were at home. We would definitely recommend Luiz and we are looking forward to our next visit!”
“Roxy had a wonderful stay with Jacquie and her family and pups! She clearly got a lot of attention and snuggles, walks in the woods, and yummy treats. Jacquie had clear and frequent communication and sent us pics. We would absolutely stay again :)”
“Josie loves dogs and took great care of our Pip. The family made Pip feel good about spending the weekend with them and seemed to love her, even forgiving her for getting food off the counter. 😬 we feel fortunate to have found them.”
“John took very good care of our pup and sent up plenty of pictures from their adventures. We will be going through him again in the future! 100% recommend him to everyone!”
“Bojack loved staying with Kourtney! He is a fourteen years old. I like that Kourtney has a background in veterinary medicine. Not only did that make me trust her with his daily meds, it was nice knowing that there was a trained eye on him. Bojack is overly bonded to me to the point that he often sits by the window waiting for me to return when I go out. The biggest compliment to Kourtney's care is that when we picked him up, he greeted me with enthusiasm but not anywhere near the crazy welcome I usually get, AND he kept looking back at Kourtney as if he was unsure whether he wanted to leave! We will definitely have her watch him again.”
About: I love dogs. I have a rescue her name is Snickers and shes 7 months old. I've had dogs all my life. How anyone can hurt man's best friend is beyond me. She is like my child and makes me smile, keeps me company and I dont know what I would do without her. I love her with all my heart and wouldnt trade her for the world. I would treat anyone's dog like I would my own. They are all special in their own way. I would be honored to take care of your dog, I look forward to meeting you very soon. Thank you, Robin K I work full time at home and I'm able to walk my dog and take her out anytime! I'm available all day. My Snickers would love a play mate. I dont have crate but if yours needs one you'll have to bring it. I'm very diligent in taking my pup out all day long.
“Sam and her family took excellent care of my two dogs! Communication was top-notch, and I loved to see how happy and well cared for they were. They came home content and tired, which is the best review of all. It’s clear they had a great time in your beautiful spot in the forest. Thank you so much, Sam! 🤩”
“Jie is a superlative dog caretaker! She sent consistent updates with wonderful photos giving me reassurance that my elderly dog enjoyed a safe and fun stay. She willingly managed his medications and remained in excellent communication. Already re-booked, and will again!”
“Karl and his dogs are very welcoming. Karl’s yard is well suited for the dogs with a large space and a fence. Karl communicates timely and goes out of his way to ensure all goes well. All the dogs got along well and our dogs adjusted well on both sends of their stay.”
“Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.”

This time she was willing to go check on him when our flight got delayed !!! Honestly does a great job and I will keep her on the top of my list in the future.”
“Melanie was fantastic with our two cats! She was reliable, attentive and caring and followed every detail of our care instructions perfectly. She kept our automatic cat boxes and food dispensers refreshed on schedule and even cleaned and recycled the food containers and dealt with the trash. Our kitties were happy to see her even our very shy kitty which gave us peace of mind. We wouldn't hesitate to book Melanie again and highly recommend her to anyone for a very caring cat sitter.”
“Absolutely thrilled with the quality of service. I received pictures and updates. My cats were well cared for, and it made being away much more comfortable. I would absolutely recommend.Amanda.”
“Kendra did an outstanding job caring for Neko and Encie, our two elderly cats who are nervous around new people and don't make friends easily. This makes it extra challenging to give Neko her insulin shots, but Kendra is so thoughtful about how she approached them that they both ended up being very comfortable with her. Neko got all her meds and they even got some pets! So grateful, thank you Kendra!”
“Vikki immediately bonded with my older cat. I could see my cat rubbing up against her and enjoying her treats. She provided loving companionship for a week while I was on vacation. I am truly thankful for the care she provided my cat. 5 stars out of 5!!”
About: Ive taken care of quite a few kitties. Unless your cat like constant snuggles having us come to your house once or twice a day would be best. The kids are always opening our doors.
About: Animals are my passion. I've cared for dogs, cats and exotic animals my entire life with a background in Veterinary Medicine and years of education in training/ body language, early socialization and enrichment work. I treat, care for and love all animals as they are my own. I can provide care for pets of all ages with any special needs, medications, grooming needs and more. Taking everything at their pace. Reliable, flexible, and trustworthy.
About: I’ve taken care of cats for a few years now!! I’ve taken care of several friends’ cats for as long as a week or two, to just a weekend. I’m comfortable with just being in and out to just feed them and clean the litter box, or staying longer and spending time with the kitties. I don’t mind when cats hiss at me because I know they’re just speaking and I give them as much space as they need! I recently adopted my own cat, Shady, so I have even more experience now :))
“Amanda was great! Our cats were well looked after and our house was left in good condition. She sent photos and updates to let us know how things were going. Looking forward to having her take care of our kitties again.”
About: I have had a passion for taking care of animals since a young age. I have experience with all types of animals. I worked as a doggy daycare attendant and a veterinary assistant, as well as shelter experience. I'm available for drop in visits and dog walking. I do not have a set schedule at work yet so I will have different availability every week. We do have a backyard which is not fenced in and a porch that I usually block off to let my dogs get outside for some fresh air.
About: I've shared my life with cats since I was a child and understand that every cat has their own unique personality. I have experience caring for playful kittens, shy or timid cats, senior cats, feral cats, and cats with medical needs. I'm comfortable administering medications, following special diets, and providing the extra patience and gentle care that many cats require. My own 18-year-old cat has taught me the importance of compassionate senior care and paying attention to the little changes that can make a big difference. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers quiet companionship, I'll respect their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away.

“Amanda's home was clean, welcoming and well set up for pet care. Amanda's pricing was fair and honest and she was amazing with communication throughout the day. It was obvious that she loves animals and my dog agrees as she was excited and happy on the days that she was in Amanda's care. I highly recommend her!”

“Samantha and Brian has a large backyard for my dog to roam and they took him on a nice hike in the woods. My dog had so much fun with them and their young kids. I would choose them again for a eventful daycare that my swiss shepherd definitely needs!”
“I feel so lucky to have found Sofie and Teryn! They took such great care of my two dogs for the whole day. I was thrilled to get pictures right away and throughout the day while I was gone. I hope to use their services many times to come. Javi and Rocky were happy and very well-cared for at the beautiful home. Thank you!”
“Jie was very responsive and easy to communicate with. My dog had such a great time being at Jie's house, meeting the other dogs, observing the chickens, and even doing some agility in the backyard. They are definitely dog lovers, we feel fortunate to have found Jie. We love knowing our dog is safely in good hands, and having a great time to boot!”
“What a wonderful family! Luiz & Patricia are incredibly professional and kind (as are their daughters & pup!) and made my girl feel right at home. She came home exhausted after having spent much of the day running around outside and playing with their dog & daughters. I always LOVE to get updates during a stay, and I received so many fun pictures and videos. I could not recommend them more!!!”

“Glad we found Michael for our Shepsky for a week stay. He took great care of our dog. Updated about our dog well being and just cared like a family member. Michael responds very quickly and would recommend without hesitation.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs most of my life and truly treat them like family. I grew up in a home with four dogs, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I also adopted and lovingly cared for a difficult senior dachshund for years, which gave me valuable experience with patience, senior dog needs, routines, and extra attentiveness. Today I have a large Bernedoodle, so I’m confident handling bigger dogs as well as energetic pups who need exercise and structure. I’m active and love taking dogs on walks, runs, and outdoor time when appropriate, while also making sure they get plenty of affection, snuggles, and supervision. What sets me apart is that I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love dogs. I understand every dog is different, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I work remotely from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be present throughout the day for the pets in my care. Because I’m home most of the time, dogs get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship instead of being left alone for long stretches. My flexible routine also makes it easy for me to stick to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I’m able to provide attentive, consistent care and make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving home environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. I have a friendly, social dog who enjoys having visitors and does well with other dogs, while always making sure introductions are done thoughtfully and safely. I have a yard for outdoor time, and while it is not fenced, I use a secure runner/tie-out system and close supervision so dogs can safely enjoy fresh air, potty breaks, and time outside. I also keep dogs leashed on walks and anytime they are outdoors for added safety. If your dog is crate-trained or more comfortable with their own space, I’m happy to accommodate crating and follow your normal home routine. I always aim to keep pets on their regular schedule for feeding, exercise, rest, and any medications or special instructions. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, attentiveness, and lots of love.

“Kiersten was amazing with my anxious dog! She was patient with him and did a great job making him comfortable. She paid super close attention to his preferences and behaviors, which I really appreciated. She was super reliable as well.”
“Susan was great! My dog had a wonderful time at her place. It’s a quiet location in the woods, with two pet goats that Rennie got to hang out with and go on woods walks with. Susan was really flexible with my timing and communicated super quickly, both of which I totally appreciated. I’ll be glad to have my dog back to ‘summer camp’ there anytime!”

Boarding dogs has become part of our daily routine so we have a schedule to fit all needs and preferences. Once you book with us, we work our schedule around the booking. I love enjoying walks around the lake we live on, as well as the many trails nearby. We can also play fetch in the backyard if pup can be off leash. Our house is in a very low traffic area full of nature. We are very attentive and we make sure we have details on their routines, feeding, medications and any special needs.

I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands. I treat every pet as if they were one of my own. I work for myself, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable, personalized care for your pets. I'm available Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, medication, and companionship. I always do my best to be punctual, reliable, and accommodate your pet's routine. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I believe pets feel most secure when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and any special needs. I'll care for your home with the same respect I would my own, provide regular updates with photos, and treat every pet like a member of my own family.
About: I have had a passion for taking care of animals since a young age. I have experience with all types of animals. I worked as a doggy daycare attendant and a veterinary assistant, as well as shelter experience. I'm available for drop in visits and dog walking. I do not have a set schedule at work yet so I will have different availability every week. We do have a backyard which is not fenced in and a porch that I usually block off to let my dogs get outside for some fresh air.
“I came in from our of town for a family gathering and needed a last minute walker for my dog. Jeffery was great with communicating with me for the last minute need. Was great handling Denise (my 2.5 year old had) and they had a nice hour long stroll around the neighborhood. Would recommend”

“Amanda was so communicative while Stelly was in her care. She provided photos and updates every day. It was clear that Stelly enjoyed her stay and felt very comfortable and welcome with Amanda and her family! I would absolutely rebook!”

“Ozzy had a wonderful time with Nicole and her family! Nicole was relaxed and welcoming, and encouraged Ozzy to feel at home. The weather was bitter cold but Ozzy got all his energy out tearing around their fenced backyard. Nicole was very communicative, sending frequent updates and photos, Highly recommended!”
“Finn and Hadley loved their time with Luiz and his family. I felt very comfortable that my dogs were being cared for like they were at home. We would definitely recommend Luiz and we are looking forward to our next visit!”
“Josie loves dogs and took great care of our Pip. The family made Pip feel good about spending the weekend with them and seemed to love her, even forgiving her for getting food off the counter. 😬 we feel fortunate to have found them.”
“John took very good care of our pup and sent up plenty of pictures from their adventures. We will be going through him again in the future! 100% recommend him to everyone!”
“Bojack loved staying with Kourtney! He is a fourteen years old. I like that Kourtney has a background in veterinary medicine. Not only did that make me trust her with his daily meds, it was nice knowing that there was a trained eye on him. Bojack is overly bonded to me to the point that he often sits by the window waiting for me to return when I go out. The biggest compliment to Kourtney's care is that when we picked him up, he greeted me with enthusiasm but not anywhere near the crazy welcome I usually get, AND he kept looking back at Kourtney as if he was unsure whether he wanted to leave! We will definitely have her watch him again.”
“Karl and his dogs are very welcoming. Karl’s yard is well suited for the dogs with a large space and a fence. Karl communicates timely and goes out of his way to ensure all goes well. All the dogs got along well and our dogs adjusted well on both sends of their stay.”
“Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.”
“My two dogs enjoyed their stay with Rachael and her family. It is a very relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, and her two dogs are great! Outside time, sofa time, just perfect. We'll be back!!”
“Thank you for taking such good care of the boys again. They were excited as soon as we pulled in the driveway and you received kisses from Paxton, which you know is extremely rare! A testament to your kind, caring demeanor with them!”
“Christian is great! He is patient, chill, and very good with dogs! I loved that our dog wanted to go back inside with him when we had to leave; that is a great sign!”
“Dee was great with our dog, Shiloh, while we were across the country for over a week. We received pictures showing her with all of her happiest body language and were told that Shiloh and Dee's dog got along like best friends. We will definitely ask Dee to watch Shiloh again.”
