“Lori was ABSOLUTELY incredible. She saved me from a very last minute pickle, and I’m so glad so was able to babysit my Ollie so last minute. I got daily updates and pictures, as well as such amazing assurance that Ollie would be getting both his pills had his much-hated ear drops. I came back from the weekend and his ear infection was almost completely gone! And he was POOPED! A true testament to what a great time he had. Definitely recommend!”

“What a wonderful visit my Timmy had with Donna! It was his first visit with her and there will be plenty more to come. She is a very caring, loving woman who goes out of her way to make sure her visitors are comfortable, happy and safe!”
“David was wonderful! Communicative, patient, kind. It was only for about 9 hours, but he went above and beyond to watch and care for our dog. He shared several pictures, and gave proactive updates, and was quick to answer during and leading up to our dog's stay. I would whole-heartedly recommend David.”

Lots of playtime even had another dog that stayed there that our youngest dog is now best friends with. Lots of photos to keep us updated which we really appreciated. Highest recommendation for very very happy puppies.”
“Paul and Megan were excellent hosts for Kenobi. From the meet and greet I could tell Kenobi felt comfortable in their presence. They were very responsive and great at communication. The frequency of updates and pictures was just right and we came back to a healthy, happy dog. Would absolutely recommend. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
“Kathy is an absolute gem and I feel so blessed to have found her. She is so caring, responsive, and took amazing care of my baby girl. Snickerdoodle, her pup, is the sweetest boy in the world and gets along with everyone. My girl felt like she was a honeymoon vacation and that gave me so much peace of mind.”
“We have finally found the perfect babysitter. Jasmine made us feel safe, comfortable and completely at ease after the first day. The daily communication complete with daily videos is unmatched.

“Jacquelyn did a great job taking care of my kitten on his first time alone. She followed all instructions exactly, kept in contact with any changes, and took great photos of him playing with her. It was such a relief to know he was safe and happy with her while we were gone.”
About: I have cared for cats for almost 6 years through short-term petsitting and extended periods. I have cared for cats of neighbors, family members, as well as those in my community. These cats include kittens ranging to seniors, as well as different behaviors. I also have veterinary knowledge and I am trained in FearFree, Pet First aid, and Pet CPR.

“Wiktoria did a great job with Bentley. He loved having her hanging out with him for an hour. We are so glad to have found her. We will definitely use Wiktoria again!”
“My cat absolutely adores Leslie! Leslie does an amazing job making sure your loved ones are cared for. She took extra time and care to make sure he was comforted and brushed. There’s nothing better than receiving a video of your purring cat when you’re away and knowing they’re in good hands. Leslie is the best!!!!”

About: I am great with all dogs. I love taking care of them and enjoy taking them for walks just to see how happy they are to be outside and exploring nature. Depending on your dogs personality, I would be happy to play with them or if they prefer to hangout more quietly I’ll cuddle up with them while I complete schoolwork or watch a movie. My family has had dogs my entire life so I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs. Additionally, If your dog likes playing with other dogs, I have two that love to play! I would be happy to take them with me for walks, and give them new friends (and more importantly help them get rid of all that energy). My dogs don’t travel with me all the time so if your dog isn’t a fan of others I’ll make sure to leave them at home. My hope is to give your dog attention that will make them feel safe and cared for when you are not around.

“Mirellys took wonderful care of Rosa and went above and beyond to make sure Rosa was comfortable during her stay. Mirellys also kept me updated throughout the day with photos and videos, which I really appreciated. I'd definitely use her again in the future.”
“Jade watched my two pups with very different needs (one is small, 15 years old; the other is 1.5 yo husky mix) for the day as we were going through town on a road trip. We needed somewhere for the pups to be while we did a non-dog friendly day. Jade was super responsive and accommodating. The dogs happily walked off with her without any hesitation (I trust them to read the situation). She asked good questions about their care, entertained the pup during the day by introducing her to a doggy walking pad inside since it was extremely hot out. She also quickly and easily accommodated an earlier pick up when we finished up early. While we aren’t local to use her again, I would do it if the need arises. Much better than a kennel! Pups were happy when we picked up.”
About: I’ve been a loving and devoted dog owner since I was ten. I’ve raised both small and large breed dogs from puppyhood. In addition, I’ve been a foster mom to many dogs of various ages and breeds through Great Dog Rescue. I enjoy getting outdoors, rain or shine, walking and playing with these wonderful animals. My dogs get are doted on with lots of cuddles and attention. I currently have a very friendly Bernese Mountain dog who gets along well with other dogs. I am available full-time to care for your fur baby. I could offer daily exercise and plenty of individual attention to your pup at my home or yours. I have a house with a big yard on a quiet cul-de-sac. Either in your home or mine, I would take your dog out on a leash to make sure it stays safe. Having hosted many rescue dogs, I know how to care for nervous animals and they have thrived under my care.
“Millie had the best time at Fae and Joseph's! Great dogs to play with and a set up with the safety and happiness of dogs in mind. Couldn't ask for anything more.”
About: I treat every animal exactly as if they were my own. With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and horses, my background is deeply rooted in animal welfare. Growing up in Maryland, I volunteered at a local animal rescue, interned with an equine veterinary clinic, and served as a volunteer and instructor in equine therapy. I came to Boston for college and have resided here ever since! I am still an avid equestrian today, and this lifelong dedication to animals has shaped my approach to pet care: I am incredibly detail-oriented, highly observant, and bring infinite patience to every animal's unique needs. I grew up surrounded by large dogs—including three wonderful Labradors—as well as multiple cats. Recently, my husband, Johnny, and I moved to Marblehead, where we share our home with our two sweet cats, Ozzy and Willis.

About: I love being surrounded by animals and have been around pets my entire life. For a long time now, I’ve been rescuing lost dogs and helping them find safe, loving homes. Currently, I have three dogs and a cat at my country house, as well as a 10-year-old senior dog at home. One of my dogs in the countryside is partially blind, and I'm the one who takes care of his special needs. This has given me great hands-on experience with senior and special-needs pet care. Spanish is my native language, and my home is fully bilingual! My kids are completely fluent in English and are always here to help with communication for all booking details and updates. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I am at home all day. My daily life revolves around taking care of my dog, maintaining our home, and waiting for my husband and children to return from work and school. Currently, my daughter is starting college this August, so I am looking for extra income to help pay for her tuition. This work is a perfect match for me because it naturally aligns with my everyday schedule, allowing me to give visiting pets full-time attention, love, and constant companionship. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. Since I spend my entire day at home, your pet will have constant presence and attention, a safe outdoor space, quiet walks and specialized care experience.
“Diaralyz and her family took such good care of our puppy! He got to interact and socialize properly and the best part was receiving pictures and videos of him playing and living his best life. We highly recommend Diaralyz and we will be coming again with our little dog.”
“Blossom was cared for really well and got to play with multiple friends. Michelle communicated throughout the day and kep us informed on Blossom was doing. We will definitely go back to Michelle when we need care for Blossom.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and can’t remember a time when there wasn’t a four‑legged best friend in the house. Growing up with dogs taught me the foundations of great pet care: patience, consistency, and plenty of affection. Today, I’m a proud dog dad to my pup, Ghost. He’s energetic, loyal, and always ready for an adventure. Caring for him has deepened my understanding of canine behavior and reinforced the importance of meeting each dog’s unique needs—whether that’s long walks, playtime, structure, or just a calm presence. I’m also a big cat lover! I’ve always had a soft spot for cats and genuinely enjoy their personalities—from the playful and curious to the calm and cuddly. Whether your pet is a dog, a cat, or both, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. I have a full time job in Higher Ed I work from 8:30 am to 4:30 PM Mon-Fri. I can work around those hours. I also have an hour for lunch which I can use for additional walks I live by a lake so if your dog loves the water they will get plenty of that! I also have lots of walking trails nearby.

About: Welcome! I go by “Nancy!” 🐾🐈🦮 I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember and have had pets for over 25 years. Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life, not just a hobby. Over the years I’ve had different kinds of pets, and I currently have two budgies and a betta fish. I enjoy getting to know each animal’s personality and earning their trust at their own pace. I’m naturally attentive and tend to notice when something seems off or when a pet needs a little extra patience and care. I understand how much pets mean to their families, and I would care for yours the same way I care for my own. Animals have always been a part of my life. I’m currently a student chaplain, a full-time mom to two girls, and a pet mom to two budgies and a betta fish. Caring for animals is already part of my daily routine, and in my free time, I’d love the opportunity to spend time with and care for other pets. While I’m new to this platform offering dog walking services, I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. 🐾 I treat every pet as if they were my own. I focus on safe, enjoyable walks, follow the owner’s instructions carefully, and make sure each pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they need.

About: I am a 32-year-old living in a house in Wenham (with a large backyard!) with flexible work hours. I work from home, and I'm a writer so hours are flexible, so I can take your dog for a walk whenever you need me to. I am responsible, kind, and athletic, and would love taking your dog on a long neighborhood walk, a dog park, or another location you'd prefer. I’ve been a Rover sitter for over five years, and have watched all kinds of pups! Young or old, big or small, energetic and outgoing or shy and timid… I’ve watched (and loved) them all! Being a Rover sitter is truly one of my biggest joys. As someone who loves dogs but doesn’t have one yet myself, I will truly treat your pup like my own and make sure he or she has a fantastic time away :) I am a previous pet owner myself -- growing up I had an incredibly energetic golden retriever dog, as well as a cat who lived 15 years. I also used to volunteer at the Ipswich Animal Shelter because I love all animals! I work a 9-to-5 job from home, but my role as a writer means I have limited meetings — so I have a lot of flexibility to take your pup for walks and play with him or her throughout the day. I follow the owner’s advice when it comes to how to make the animal feel safe and comfortable in my home. I ensure I am always aware of where the pup or cat is and watch them so they don’t get themselves into harm’s way, and I follow the animal’s lead when it comes to whether they want to be picked up or pet or whether they want space to explore a bit. I work full-time from home, and as a writer I have a flexible schedule to play and walk your pet throughout the day as well as on weekends. We have a house in Wenham, and I always ensure anything potentially dangerous is off the floor before a pup comes over. I also make sure they have their own space in my house on a dog bed or blanket with toys so they feel safe and welcomed.
“Sharon was amazing! She came over before we needed help with Fitz to meet him, and he loved her at first sight. She was communicative, quick to respond, and timely. I highly recommend!”
“Brooke was amazing caring for our dog Zoey while we were away. We were hesitant on which route to take to care for Zoey on our 6 day vacation. We decided on using Brooke with multiple services and she exceeded our expectations. She was in contact with us daily with photos and communication. I will most definitely be recommending her to other dog families in need.”
About: Hello! I'm Annie, and I run a local premium pet care service with my partner Robbie. I've been professionally pet and house-sitting since 2018, though animals have always been a part of my life. I have experience with dogs of all sizes (1–85 lbs), including senior pets, pets with special needs, and those requiring medication or specialized care. Whether it’s using a crate, leash, or harness, your pet’s safety is always my top priority. You’ll notice that your pet(s) warm up to me quickly...animals tend to sense my calm, nurturing presence and years of hands-on experience. I genuinely love what I do and feel honored every time I’m trusted with such an important member of your family. I send regular photo updates during my stay so you can always feel connected and reassured. Important Note (Please Read): Moving forward, I only work with families who are comfortable with my 1-year-old daughter joining me for all pet care services. My partner, Robbie, also joins me for all overnight stays. Because of this, it’s essential that any pets I care for are well-socialized and comfortable around children and new adults. If your pet(s) have any history of reactivity or discomfort around babies, children, or unfamiliar people, I kindly ask that we do not move forward with services. Safety comes first for everyone involved. What to Expect: I typically start with a quick phone call to go over the basics. If it feels like a good fit, we then set up a meet-and-greet with your pet(s) to ensure compatibility and go over all important details (house rules, routines, medical needs, vet contacts, favorite activities, and more). These consultations usually last about 30 minutes. My goal is to make sure your pet(s) feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away, and that you feel peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Looking forward to meeting your furry family! I run an online business with a flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize pet care in a consistent and dependable way. I’m typically never away from the home for more than 4–5 hours at a time, and I always communicate clearly about my availability before booking. As a new mom, I will have my baby daughter with me during all pet care visits and house sitting stays. Because of this, I only work with pets who are well-socialized and comfortable around infants. When house sitting, I keep my schedule light so I can focus on your pet’s needs and provide a calm, loving environment. Pet care is not just a side gig—it’s something I love and integrate thoughtfully into my week. I work with dogs ranging from 1-85 pounds and have experience with senior pets, special needs pets, and giving medications. I am comfortable using a crate, leash, and harness for your pets safety. I ask that any specific rules in regards to safety be discussed during out meet and greet.
About: I’ve taken care of our dog (black Australian labradoodle) Levi since we got him almost 4 years ago. We also have chickens, so I’ve been around animals for most of my life! I love walking my friend’s dogs, and playing fetch with Levi in our yard, or going on runs together!! 🐾 I’m free at any time on the weekends, and during the week until July 31st I’m available in the early mornings (before 7am) and evenings (after 6pm). After July 31, I’m available any day, any time for the rest of the summer! In my home town, I walk my dog on a leash and make sure that he’s secure. Depending on your dog’s needs, I’m ready and willing to take any additional safety precautions.

“Receba is an amazing dog sitter! She took great care of Rosie, sending regular picture updates that put my mind at ease. Her communication was excellent, and she was super flexible when I needed to adjust drop-off times. I highly recommend her—Rosie had a wonderful time!”
“Lindsay was amazing. Our dog had a great time with Lindsay, her family and her dog Tilly, who happened to match our dog's size and energy level perfectly. Lindsay sent us multiple photos during our dog's stay. We could not recommend her more highly!”
“David was wonderful! Communicative, patient, kind. It was only for about 9 hours, but he went above and beyond to watch and care for our dog. He shared several pictures, and gave proactive updates, and was quick to answer during and leading up to our dog's stay. I would whole-heartedly recommend David.”
“Natasha and Jonathan were super communicative and flexible, and my pup seemed like he had a great time staying with them for a few days. I’ll definitely bring him back the next time he needs daycare!”
“Michael was very communicative the whole time, and our Caju had a great time at his house! He was well taken care of and came back happy and tired :) I’ll definitely do it again when needed!”
“Kathy is an absolute gem and I feel so blessed to have found her. She is so caring, responsive, and took amazing care of my baby girl. Snickerdoodle, her pup, is the sweetest boy in the world and gets along with everyone. My girl felt like she was a honeymoon vacation and that gave me so much peace of mind.”
“We have finally found the perfect babysitter. Jasmine made us feel safe, comfortable and completely at ease after the first day. The daily communication complete with daily videos is unmatched. This is a deeply caring person who cares for her charges as though they were her own. We can’t thank her enough and will always use jasmine and recommend her to anyone who will listen. Thank you Jasmine for a safe and secure environment.”
“Piper came back happy from Belinda’s! Belinda was very responsible, flexible, and made sure to slowly introduce Piper to her own pup! If I am back in town with Piper I will definitely reach out to her again!”
“Jack had a such a great time with Freddi. She took my high energy boy to walk in the woods everyday, which he always enjoyed. Sent plenty of pictures and updates daily. I truly appreciate the care and would be in contact again!”
“Mirellys took great care of my Bailey. She was very friendly, knowledgeable, and provided lots of updates and pictures. Bailey loved her time with Mirellys and I would absolutely recommend her to watch your dog and would have her watch bailey again in the future.”
“Thank you for minding Theo in our absence! Great videos, excellent response time to my messages. Exceptionally knowledgeable about dog behavior! Lovely family, great back yard and lots of walks. Happy, tired guy. Thank you!”
“I would be giving them more than 5 stars if I could! Zwany was so warm and inviting to us dog parents who had to leave their little one behind for the first time. From our meet & greet to the daily pup-dates and everything in between, they made us feel so comfortable and at ease with the level of care and attention our fur baby would get.”
“Lady spent another great day with Elliott! She is always so happy when we arrive and clearly enjoys her time there. We are very grateful to be able to leave her in such good hands!”
“Stacey is the best! This is the second time we’ve left our dog with her and could not be happier. Our dog loves her and she goes above and beyond. She truly cares for our dog as if she were her own.”
“We used Sam to board our dog Mia for the first time recently, and she was absolutely amazing! We just adopted Mia two months ago (she’s a rescue from the south), so we were super nervous about leaving her for a week. At the dog hotel we used to use for our other pup, they literally charged us $4 per photo and we constantly had to beg them for updates. Sam was the exact opposite. Right from the meet-and-greet, she was so attentive and asked tons of questions to make sure she knew exactly how to give Mia the best care. While we were gone, she sent so many updates and pictures without us even having to ask, which gave us total peace of mind. She even handled Mia's allergy medication which was another concern of ours. Plus, her dog Poppy is the absolute cutest and friendliest pup ever! If want someone who will actually give you pup personal, hands-on love and attention, you need to book Sam.”
“Felicia was great, she sent a lot of updates through the day and was very responsive. We felt very assured that Cappy would be well looked after and he was”
