She was a fast communicator and kept us updated with funny pictures of Clover throughout her stay. She came home tired from all her playing! We would definitely recommend Briana and Clover can’t wait to see her again :)

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.

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.

About: I work professionally from home, so I can be available for your pets' potty breaks and feedings and make sure they have company during the day. My love for animals started at an early age, and there's nothing I love more than spending time in their company. I have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and levels of training. I'm an active volunteer at the local animal shelter with dogs and have fostered very many cats and kittens in my home for them over the years. So I can work with the shy, hissy, nervous animals and love them all. I'm committed to providing the best care possible for your pets and know that that can sometimes include administering medication. As long as I'm clear on what, how, and when, I'm comfortable providing this service. I regularly send pictures and updates to help keep your mind at ease and confident that your pet is loving their time with me! I work from home as a manager for a tech company. This means that my schedule is flexible, and I can address food and potty needs around the clock. I work in an office with a door that closes and can keep your pets with me during the day or leave them free to roam the house. My house is on an acre of half-yard, half-woods. I will use a 100-foot lead for your pet any time we’re outside, and hey can explore the woods with me on a leash. I have a XL crate in my office that can be used to house your pet. I also have a dedicated bonus room, where pets that need a more quiet scene can go enjoy the warm, sunny window or the fluffy beds/scratch towers.

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 :))

About: I am a lifelong animal lover, and have owned dogs, birds, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters and mice. Currently I own 2 cats with my partner named Rebel and Scout. Growing up my family dogs have included lhasa apsos, dandie dinmont terriers, a german shepherd, and a golden lab. I have experience sitting all types of dogs so whether you have a small medium or large dog, i am comfortable with all sizes. I also was an American Kennel Club junior handler for five years and during that time I showed my lhasa apsos. I have assisted with 4 four litters of lhasa puppies and am experienced with house training, puppy training, care etc. If you have any other questions I would be happy to answer them and look forward to the opportunity to become a friend to your precious pets! :) I am currently a homemaker, and am fortunate to have some flexibility! Just let me know the times/days you need. M-F preferred weekends are negotiable! My preference is to take care of pets at clients home. It is difficult to have other animals inside with the cats however I do have a fenced in area in my yard I can offer for them to be in!

About: I have worked with dogs all my life. I use to work/help my mom at a kennel at the young age of 7 and our household was always full of dogs! I have had experience with many breeds. I've owned a wide range of dogs: pit bulls, labs, huskies, dash hound, terriers, rottie and pugs. I love to go for long walks, hikes, play fetch, take them swimming. I love to take my dogs out in the field so they can get rid of their energy and run free. If your dog isn’t a runner I would to take them too. I have a very flexible schedule so I could work the times around your needs and times. Dogs are my passion and I can’t wait to babysit yours!

About: Hi there! I'm Erin, a dedicated mother and lifelong animal enthusiast. With a heart full of love for all creatures great and small, I've spent most of my adult life volunteering, fostering, and caring for animals. From dogs to cats and everything in between, I've had the pleasure of nurturing and pampering a wide variety of pets. My journey into pet care started years ago when I began volunteering at local animal shelters and fostering dogs and cats in need. Over time, my passion evolved into a profession, and I've been providing top-notch pet sitting and dog walking services ever since. What sets me apart is the personal touch I bring to every interaction. As a mother, I understand the importance of family, and that includes our beloved pets. That's why I love nothing more than including my own children in our pet visits and walks. Your furry companions not only get the care and attention they deserve but also the joy of interacting with a fun-loving family. At home, our household is a bustling hub of activity, filled with the laughter and energy of children. Alongside my small and sociable Jack Russell Terrier mix and clever cat, we create a warm and welcoming environment for pets of all shapes and sizes. With experience caring for various breeds, including the majestic Great Dane, I'm well-equipped to handle the unique needs and quirks of different animals. Whether your pup needs a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood or your cat requires some extra TLC while you're away, rest assured they'll be in loving and capable hands with my family. So, if you're seeking reliable and compassionate pet care services that treat your furry friends like family, look no further. Because when it comes to your pets, they deserve nothing but the best! Pet care is not just a job for me—it's my passion and my primary focus outside of being a mom and pet owner myself. With my schedule wide open and dedicated solely to pet care, I have the flexibility to tailor my daily and weekly routine to meet the needs of both pets and their owners. Each day, I prioritize spending quality time with the pets under my care, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need to thrive. Whether it's morning walks, midday visits, or evening cuddle sessions, I'm there to provide personalized care and companionship every step of the way. My wide flexibility allows me to accommodate the unique needs of each pet, whether it's administering medication, adhering to specific feeding schedules, or simply providing extra TLC for pets with special needs. I understand that every pet is different, and I strive to create a routine that caters to their individual preferences and requirements. By limiting my bookings, I can ensure that each pet receives the care and attention they deserve without feeling rushed or overlooked. Whether it's a one-time visit or a long-term arrangement, I'm committed to providing top-notch care that exceeds both pet and owner expectations. In essence, pet care isn't just a part of my routine—it's the heart of my daily life, and I'm dedicated to making sure every pet feels loved, safe, and cherished in my care. Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priorities. With a spacious 3-bedroom home and a large playroom addition, we offer a welcoming and secure environment for your furry friend to feel right at home. Whether your pet prefers the familiarity of their own surroundings or enjoys exploring new spaces, I can be flexible and accommodating to meet their needs. In our home, your pet will have plenty of room to roam and play, whether they're chasing toys, lounging in cozy corners, or enjoying some quality cuddle time. I understand that some pets may feel more comfortable in their own crates, and I am more than happy to accommodate those preferences to ensure they feel safe and secure during their stay. Outside of our home, we love to explore and embrace the great outdoors, making long evening walks around neighborhoods or adventures in the woods a regular part of our routine. Whether your pet enjoys a leisurely stroll or prefers a brisk run, we're committed to providing the exercise and stimulation they need to stay happy and healthy. Whether it's a staycation in our cozy home or a familiar visit to yours, you can trust our family to provide the personalized care and attention your pet deserves. Because when your pet is with us, they're not just a guest—they're a cherished member of our family

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 25 years and truly believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from tiny Chihuahuas to large breeds, as well as puppies, energetic adults, and senior dogs who require extra patience, medication, or special care. I'm naturally calm, dependable, and attentive to each pet's individual personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship, I adapt my care to what makes them happiest. My goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable while you're away. As someone who works for myself, I have the flexibility to provide reliable daytime care and give each visit my full attention. 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.

My dog had the most amazing time here! Luiz is so good with dogs and my William felt right at home. He sent many pictures and videos. I haven’t seen my dog so happy since his sister pup passed. So thankful to Luiz and his family.

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!

Our pup has enjoyed spending days with Dawn and it is especially nice for us to have a place where she can comfortably interact with young children, as we don’t have that opportunity to offer her at home. Dawn also has a great fenced in backyard with lots of interesting things to smell and ways to run around and work off energy, which is great for both our pup and for us when we pick her up and know that she’s had a fun filled active day!

About: I have been taking care of the dogs and cats since I was a very young, the age of 14 and I absolutely love animals. I’m home full-time. So taking care of your pet with love cuddles is no problem i have a large yard and part of it fully fenced in. I do have security cameras inside and outside to protect all animals in my home. I am very good about sending lots of updates so you can see your pet having lots of fun. I pride myself on being a home away from home! I’m full time at home so i have nothing but time to spend hanging out, playing and spoiling your pet when you are away! I love being outside I have a big house they can come in to cool off or warm up depending on weather. I have a large yard mostly fenced and a smaller area fully fenced.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life but have owned my own dog for the past 4 years. I am constantly watching my friend's dogs while they are away and know how important it is to have someone to trust and provide a loving and caring home away from home for your pet while you are away! I currently work from home full-time, so I'll have plenty of time to walk and play with your pup! I have a highly energetic dog, so we take several walks during the day and then I take her to nearby parks with trails after work. I'm available for boarding during the week and on weekends. I have a medium sized fenced in yard and a very sweet dog to keep your fir baby company! My dog has free reign of the house and is allowed on the furniture and sleeps in my bed but can also crate your dog if needed.

About: I love having dogs around and work hard to make sure every pup is not only well cared for, but has a genuinely fun and enriching stay. My partner and I live on 30 acres, giving dogs plenty of room to explore. We also go on regular walks and hikes, which are a great way to burn off both physical and mental energy. Of course, not every dog wants an adventure. If you have a senior dog or one who prefers to take it easy, we’re just as happy to spend the day relaxing together with plenty of attention and snuggles. We have two friendly pet goats that are accustomed to being around dogs. That said, your dog’s comfort and safety always come first. If there’s any uncertainty about how either the dog or the goats might interact, the goats stay safely in their fenced pen while we have dog visitors. I work remotely from home with a flexible schedule. I usually spend a few hours working in the morning, then I’m outside for much of the day working on projects, and spending time with our canine guests. I’m very adaptable to your dogs needs. We can work together so your dog can have a routine similar to the one they have a home.

My recently adopted husky has been struggling with separation anxiety and Alexis made her feel right at home. By the time I picked Bella up, she had gone on THREE walks and I had so many photos to enjoy! I simply cannot recommend Alexis’s conscientious care enough, and the next time Bella needs daytime care I will be coming back with no hesitation. Thank you! It couldn’t have been better!

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 25 years and truly believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from tiny Chihuahuas to large breeds, as well as puppies, energetic adults, and senior dogs who require extra patience, medication, or special care. I'm naturally calm, dependable, and attentive to each pet's individual personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship, I adapt my care to what makes them happiest. My goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable while you're away. As someone who works for myself, I have the flexibility to provide reliable daytime care and give each visit my full attention. 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: Animals have always been part of my life. I’ve raised five dogs from puppyhood and have worked with many breeds, ages, and personalities. I also have experience caring for cats, reptiles, and small mammals, making me a reliable choice for families with diverse pets who need patient, knowledgeable support. I offer fully open availability, providing flexible, reliable care whenever your pets need support. My schedule is built around consistency and convenience for pet parents, and every visit reflects my commitment to animal welfare. As I grow my business, I’m also working toward my long‑term dream of opening a multi‑species rescue to help even more animals thrive. I care for pets in the way that keeps them happiest and most comfortable. In your home, I follow your routines exactly—feeding, walks, playtime, enrichment, medication, and any house rules your pet already knows—so their day feels familiar and stress‑free. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, supervised environment with structured potty breaks, cozy rest areas, and plenty of attention. Whether it’s walks, drop‑ins, boarding, or overnights, I make sure every pet gets individualized care, consistent communication, and a calm, loving experience.

About: I used to work at an endangered farm animals petting zoo and took care of the animals every day! I took care of all varieties including goats, sheep, cows, ponies and even emus and camels! I also had 5 dogs in my childhood - two labs, a border collie greyhound mix, a labradoodle and a beagle basset hound. I currently live with a lab and 3 labradoodles and love to take them on hikes and lounge in the sun with them! I am currently taking classes during the week from 8:30am-12:30pm so I have loads of time to take care of your furry friends! I can get walks in as early as you would like and can check in multiple times throughout the day. Having owned and taken care of many pets in my life I know how important they are to you and I will take care of them like they are my own! I love finding any new trails for hiking and walking near me, and love to get outside and let out some energy. I am a pet lover myself and love to run around, play and snuggle with my own pups.

About: Hi there! I'm Erin, a dedicated mother and lifelong animal enthusiast. With a heart full of love for all creatures great and small, I've spent most of my adult life volunteering, fostering, and caring for animals. From dogs to cats and everything in between, I've had the pleasure of nurturing and pampering a wide variety of pets. My journey into pet care started years ago when I began volunteering at local animal shelters and fostering dogs and cats in need. Over time, my passion evolved into a profession, and I've been providing top-notch pet sitting and dog walking services ever since. What sets me apart is the personal touch I bring to every interaction. As a mother, I understand the importance of family, and that includes our beloved pets. That's why I love nothing more than including my own children in our pet visits and walks. Your furry companions not only get the care and attention they deserve but also the joy of interacting with a fun-loving family. At home, our household is a bustling hub of activity, filled with the laughter and energy of children. Alongside my small and sociable Jack Russell Terrier mix and clever cat, we create a warm and welcoming environment for pets of all shapes and sizes. With experience caring for various breeds, including the majestic Great Dane, I'm well-equipped to handle the unique needs and quirks of different animals. Whether your pup needs a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood or your cat requires some extra TLC while you're away, rest assured they'll be in loving and capable hands with my family. So, if you're seeking reliable and compassionate pet care services that treat your furry friends like family, look no further. Because when it comes to your pets, they deserve nothing but the best! Pet care is not just a job for me—it's my passion and my primary focus outside of being a mom and pet owner myself. With my schedule wide open and dedicated solely to pet care, I have the flexibility to tailor my daily and weekly routine to meet the needs of both pets and their owners. Each day, I prioritize spending quality time with the pets under my care, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need to thrive. Whether it's morning walks, midday visits, or evening cuddle sessions, I'm there to provide personalized care and companionship every step of the way. My wide flexibility allows me to accommodate the unique needs of each pet, whether it's administering medication, adhering to specific feeding schedules, or simply providing extra TLC for pets with special needs. I understand that every pet is different, and I strive to create a routine that caters to their individual preferences and requirements. By limiting my bookings, I can ensure that each pet receives the care and attention they deserve without feeling rushed or overlooked. Whether it's a one-time visit or a long-term arrangement, I'm committed to providing top-notch care that exceeds both pet and owner expectations. In essence, pet care isn't just a part of my routine—it's the heart of my daily life, and I'm dedicated to making sure every pet feels loved, safe, and cherished in my care. Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priorities. With a spacious 3-bedroom home and a large playroom addition, we offer a welcoming and secure environment for your furry friend to feel right at home. Whether your pet prefers the familiarity of their own surroundings or enjoys exploring new spaces, I can be flexible and accommodating to meet their needs. In our home, your pet will have plenty of room to roam and play, whether they're chasing toys, lounging in cozy corners, or enjoying some quality cuddle time. I understand that some pets may feel more comfortable in their own crates, and I am more than happy to accommodate those preferences to ensure they feel safe and secure during their stay. Outside of our home, we love to explore and embrace the great outdoors, making long evening walks around neighborhoods or adventures in the woods a regular part of our routine. Whether your pet enjoys a leisurely stroll or prefers a brisk run, we're committed to providing the exercise and stimulation they need to stay happy and healthy. Whether it's a staycation in our cozy home or a familiar visit to yours, you can trust our family to provide the personalized care and attention your pet deserves. Because when your pet is with us, they're not just a guest—they're a cherished member of our family

About: Hi! I’m JuJu, a happy-go-lucky animal lover who’s had pets my entire life. I grew up caring for dogs, cats, birds, and even farm animals — I never had to ask Santa for a pony because I actually had one! Being around animals has always come naturally to me, and I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own. Whether your pet needs playtime, snuggles, slow-and-steady care, or a fun walking buddy, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and adored while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and great at following routines. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you always know how your furry family member is doing. I can’t wait to meet your pets and make them feel right at home! I’m a mom getting settled here in Massachusetts, and I currently have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to fit drop-ins and walks around my other duties, and I’m happy to help even on holidays. If you need reliable care at a specific time, just let me know—chances are I can make it work! I always make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for while staying in their own home. I follow your routines closely so everything feels familiar and comfortable for them. They’ll have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention. I’m very mindful of safety—whether I’m giving them playtime, keeping them company, or taking them for a walk. I also send photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s comfort and happiness truly matter to me.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover, and have owned dogs, birds, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters and mice. Currently I own 2 cats with my partner named Rebel and Scout. Growing up my family dogs have included lhasa apsos, dandie dinmont terriers, a german shepherd, and a golden lab. I have experience sitting all types of dogs so whether you have a small medium or large dog, i am comfortable with all sizes. I also was an American Kennel Club junior handler for five years and during that time I showed my lhasa apsos. I have assisted with 4 four litters of lhasa puppies and am experienced with house training, puppy training, care etc. If you have any other questions I would be happy to answer them and look forward to the opportunity to become a friend to your precious pets! :) I am currently a homemaker, and am fortunate to have some flexibility! Just let me know the times/days you need. M-F preferred weekends are negotiable! My preference is to take care of pets at clients home. It is difficult to have other animals inside with the cats however I do have a fenced in area in my yard I can offer for them to be in!

About: I've been taking care of animals for over 17 years now, and I've been around animals for my entire life. I currently own 3 ducks, a horse, and a cat - I take care of them daily. Over the years I've had chickens, sheep, a bird, a dog, and guinea pigs. I love taking care of animals so much that I was involved in nursing one of my chickens back to health when she lost a wing to a predator. She stayed inside for a while but was more than okay to go back outside after she was healed. Once she was ready to join the rest of chickens, she thrived with the other chickens. For walking at home, I walk on different days for around 1 mile each way, and with animals I love to walk with them. I'm available during most times of the day, as my nights are usually unavailable due to overnights with pets. Some nights will be available, but as of right now it's often booked! Just a heads up is appreciated. I do not have a fence around my property, but I will walk your dog whenever is needed to let them outside. If you don't have a fenced area, I will do the same for your own pet!

About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life since I was a little tike. Started with a beagle that I couldn’t get enough of. When I became older i adopted a red nose pittie named boo-boo and a few months later another named Meika. They were my best buds. After their passing I got into providing over night stays for my fur nephew cooper and a family friend whom has four German Shepard’s two horses a cat and dog. I was loving it! Later on I got a job in the four legged field walking dogs, play groups and providing simple behavioral training/commands with positive redirection. I recently adopted a puppy named Orion who is three months old. I really have a passion for animals and enjoy what I do. My services provided are walks with basic commands/training during those walks. If your away I can stay! Boarding can be hard and stressful for your pet. I do over night care so your fur baby can stay in the comfort of their home.

Very thorough when I dropped my dog off Reported back to me the details of his day seemed very capable. Finn was very relaxed and seemed perfectly adjusted in a situation where he normally would be very upset. I pup has severe anxiety separation, but he did great.

Migle was absolutely wonderful with Zoë. She went above and beyond-carrying her up and down the stairs because Zoë couldn't manage them, sending regular photo updates, and treating her like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing Zoë was so well cared for. Truly exceptional.

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! 🤩

This was our puppy Clover’s first night away from home since we got her, and we are super glad she was with Briana! Briana has a great dog set up at her home, it was like summer camp for dogs. She was a fast communicator and kept us updated with funny pictures of Clover throughout her stay. She came home tired from all her playing! We would definitely recommend Briana and Clover can’t wait to see her again :)

When I picked up Rocky at the end of our visit, he was calm and happy and not particularly excited to see me. This is the highest possible praise for Nicole. Normally my dog is an anxious mess after not seeing me for even a few hours, so he must have felt safe and been extremely well cared-for. Pick up and drop off were seamless, Nicole sent just enough pictures and updates. I highly recommend her.
