Next time I’m in Boston I will 100% be reaching out to him first. Finn will miss Cameron and Rosie a ton!!! 5 stars!!”

Anyone looking for a loving pair to watch their pup would be lucky to have them say yes!”

About: Hi there! I’m Kathryn, a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all personalities and sizes. I specialize in caring for dogs (from tiny cuddle bugs to medium breeds) and have over 11 years of experience with cats as well. I offer in-home dog care, boarding, walks, drop-in visits, and daycare, and I always treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand that every pet has their own routine, comfort levels, and unique quirks, so I take time to make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Whether that means playtime, quiet snuggles, or long walks, I’ll make sure your pet’s needs come first — and I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes so you can relax knowing they’re in caring hands. Please note that we can only accept dogs <30lbs for home stays as our dog Francine gets along best with dogs close to her size. ALLERGY ALERT: I'm very allergic to rabbits. Unfortunately, I won't be able to care for fur babies who share a home with bunnies. My husband and I both work remotely, so we are always available to provide all snuggles, scritches, kisses and whatever else may be needed/desired by your fur babies! I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. For dogs, whether it’s in-home care, boarding, walks, drop-ins, or daycare, I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love, while sticking to their routines for feeding, bathroom breaks, and playtime. I adjust activities to each dog’s energy level, personality, and comfort, and I always provide a safe, clean environment. For cats, I offer in-home day visits only, so they can stay in the comfort of their own home. I follow each cat’s routine carefully, providing feeding, litter box care, playtime, and quiet companionship as needed. I make sure they feel safe and stress-free, and I provide updates with photos and notes so owners can relax while they’re away.
“Yunyao went above and beyond during the 4 days of daycare! She made sure the temperature was cool enough, she made Hazy little ice fruit treats, and she sent us multiple updates with photos throughout the day each day. Hazy was so spoiled and could not have been in better hands!”
About: I know how much your dog means to you, and leaving them with someone new takes a lot of trust. That is why I treat every single dog in my care exactly like my own family. I have a natural intuition for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Caring for pups is a lifelong passion of mine. Right now, my own furry family includes a sweet 16-year-old Cockapoo who taught me the patience needed for senior care, and an energetic 1-year-old puppy who keeps me on my toes! Over the years, I have lived with and pet-sat everything from tiny Shih Tzus to lovable "supermutts."If your dog loves to stay active, they will fit right in. My daily routine revolves around keeping dogs happy and moving. We do regular backyard playtime, long neighborhood walks, exciting hikes, and fun trips to the dog park.Plus, raising my puppy means I am highly trained in positive obedience and puppy management techniques. Whether your dog needs gentle structure, high-energy exercise, or just a cozy spot on the couch to relax, I adapt to their unique personality. I cannot wait to meet your pup and give them a fun, safe, and loving home away from home! I work part time from home and have a very flexible schedule that can accommodate your dogs needs. They will have supervised access to the backyard when they want/need, as well as walks and rest time. I have a fenced yard, and an Australian cattle dog/husky mix who LOVES all dogs. He’s crate trained and I can easily work with crate training’s as needed!
“This was our puppy’s very first time being away from us, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Kaitlyn kept us updated with photos and messages, which really helped ease our nerves. Our boy came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief knowing we have someone we trust for future stays. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”

“Michael walked my 3 year old golden retriever, Waffles, for four afternoons. Waffles sometimes pulls on the leash and sometimes not. Michael in his own quiet way was clearly in control and Waffles liked him immediately. I recommend Michael.”
“Kauai is the best! She took very good care of my 10year old black lab while I’ve been out of the country. Her communication is the best and she was very punctual.

“Our dog just loved William. We also liked him right away. We scheduled him to walk our dog for 2 days when a relative was housesitting. She reported that William had a great rapport with our dog who was always happy to see him (and he does not have a good rapport with all humans; William is one of his favorites.”
“On short notice Tab came over to meet my 4 year old Golden Retriever, Waffles, and then to walk him for a couple of days when I could not. Thomas/Tab is articulate, energetic, responsive and steady. We were having significant subway / metro problems here in Boston and Tab kept me informed. I recommend him wholeheartedly.”
About: I have no professional experience with pets, but I grew up with a dog throughout my childhood and I love spending time with cats and dogs I am not working currently so I have plenty of time to take care of pets and I am free basically every day of the week I live alone with no pets or roommates, so my whole apartment is open and I have the time to make sure any pets are looked after throughout the day
“Ilgin is amazing! We had a short notice need for a dog walker and she came the very next day, took Lana on a nice long walk, and even sent us some adorable pictures. Cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Pamela was so kind to meet us in advance and thus she and Luther were already friends once they had their walks and playtime this weekend! Thanks so much for your help, Pamela.”
About: I’ve helped my family with puppies, cats, and other animals as needed. I love animals and have grown up with professional animal caretakers all my life. I work full-time remotely, so I can make drop ins as needed or spend all day with a pet. Whatever works best for you works for me. I respect client’s homes 100% and make myself unseen. I make sure to leave a space better than how it was when I came in.
“Julia is so reliable and caring! She is punctual and our anxious dog Zara is so comfortable with her. Highly recommend having Julia walk your dog. We’ll miss you Julia!”
About: I have professionally cared for cats and dogs (and other animals) since 2010. I started volunteering at my local animal shelter to care for the fur babies with no permanent home in my community. I love a long walker and a lap friend. Many friends and family have counted on me, even in last minute moments, to feed, walk, care for, and have fun with their pets! All animals and all people will be respected and cared for. My regular summer routine is wake up with my cat, make sure we both have a good breakfast, take a 2-3 mile walk, do some yoga, and then get to work from home. Pet care, aside from my lad, would fit right into my very flexible schedule. I like to meet the pet and home before the day to get familiar and help the pet get comfortable with my scent before their family has to leave. When it’s my time to support, I stay with the pet and follow their lead, and family instructions, to make sure they are safe, fed, and having fun.
About: With 20 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I've had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of animals, including: dogs, cats, birds, turtles, and hamsters. I understand the unique needs of each species, from providing enriching activities for dogs, offering individualized care for cats, to creating safe, stimulating environments for birds, turtles, and hamsters. Whether it's ensuring proper habitat conditions, managing dietary needs, administering medications, or simply offering companionship, I approach each pet with a deep understanding of their behavior. I'm committed to fostering the well-being and happiness of every pet I care for, tailoring my services to meet their specific needs and personalities. I've built a flexible and reliable pet care routine that allows me to give your pets the attention and care they deserve without disrupting my own schedule. On a daily basis, I make time for early morning walks, feeding, and playtime, ensuring that your pets start their day happy and active. I also structure my evenings to include additional walks or cuddle sessions, and I'm available for drop-in visits throughout the day as needed. On a weekly basis, I plan regular check-ins, grooming sessions, and any other specific care tasks, such as administering medications or cleaning habitats. I will be attentive to your pets' needs without the rush, ensuring they receive the best care and companionship every day. My top priorities are ensuring their safety, comfort, and well-being. I create a secure environment by pet-proofing the space, removing potential hazards, and making sure they have room to explore, play, and relax. Trust is key, so I build a strong bond with each pet through consistency, gentle interaction, and routine care. In a client's home, I take extra care to respect their space, keeping everything familiar for their fur babies. Whether in my home or yours, I strive to offer a loving, safe, and stress-free environment where animals feel happy, secure and cared for at all times.

About: I’m a lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of breeds, from energetic puppies to quirky seniors. I work from home, so I’m able to offer tons of attention, exercise, and consistency throughout the day. Having lived with everything from labs to Pyrenees mixes, I understand the importance of meeting each dog’s unique needs, whether that’s structured walks, gentle senior care, or patient socialization for shy pups. I’m comfortable with big dogs and independent personalities, and my own experience training puppies and supporting older dogs means your pup is in caring, knowledgeable hands.What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for a variety of breeds—including puppies and seniors—and my work-from-home flexibility means dogs get real companionship and attention all day. I understand big, independent, and quirky personalities, and I prioritize individualized care, from puppy training to gentle support for older dogs. I take the time to get to know every dog, building trust through patience, routine, and play. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life, not an afterthought. Since I work from home, I’m able to integrate walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day—whether it’s a morning stroll, afternoon games in the park, or relaxed evenings together. My routine is flexible, so dogs always get outside for fresh air and exercise and receive plenty of attention between my work sessions. On weekends, I love exploring new neighborhoods, local parks, or heading to the beach—always bringing dogs along for new adventures. Whether it’s active pups needing stimulation or seniors who prefer a calm presence, I adapt my days to make sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and part of my everyday world. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and integrated into my daily routine—regular walks to nearby parks or the beach, supervised playtime, and cozy rest spots throughout my home. I keep to each dog’s familiar schedule as much as possible, including feeding times, exercise, and any training or medication routines. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, making sure pets feel secure in their own environment. I follow all instructions closely, from special diet needs to unique quirks or favorite toys, and keep in touch with updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and cared for. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own—with patience, structure, and genuine affection—whether they’re here for a day, a weekend, or longer.
