For the last 5 months Colleen has been stopping by during the week for short visits as I work long hours, and she has also looked after and fed Hank when I’ve gone away for the weekend. From the start Colleen has been incredibly professional, communicative, and understanding if I’ve needed to adjust dates or times. She gives great updates, takes incredible pictures and I could tell that Hank was thrilled whenever she came by. If I could give Colleen 20 starts I would. I could not recommend her more highly. Thank you again, Colleen, for all your help! It was comforting knowing Hank was well taken care of while I was away.”

“we were looking for a home close by to our house where Quinnie could have some time to interact with other dogs in a safe and living environment. Jackie‘s home was perfect for what we were looking for. A large securely fenced yard plus a dog door. Quinnie seemed very comfortable with Jackie, her husband and their three adorable dogs. She spent six hours there and came home tuckered out, but she seemed very happy with the day. Jackie was very attentive and kept us informed. We would very highly recommend her!”
About: Tim and Maxine are a devoted couple who provide calm, attentive, home-based care for dogs. Maxine has had dogs since age 8, and they have always been an important part of her life. Together, they share a deep love for animals and extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of different temperaments and needs. Maxine also grew up in a household involved in wildlife rehabilitation, witnessing hands-on care for squirrels, birds, and other vulnerable animals. Animals have always been central to their lives. They are warm, gentle, and patient, and because they do not work outside the home, dogs receive consistent presence, supervision, and affection throughout the day. Dog care is naturally woven into our daily and weekly routine because we do not work outside the home. Being home allows us to structure our day around the cats’ needs rather than fitting care into limited free time. We are present throughout the day for feeding, walks, dog park visits, play, monitoring behavior, and providing comfort and attention. Because our schedule is flexible and home-based, we can respond quickly to changes in appetite, mood, or health, and maintain a calm, consistent environment that helps dogs feel safe and settled. We offer boarding exclusively in our home, providing dogs with a calm, safe, and structured environment. Because we are home full-time, dogs receive consistent supervision, walks, dog park outings, regular feeding, daily interaction, and close monitoring of behavior and comfort. We follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules and any special instructions.

About: I have been caring for pets ever since I got my own to care for at a very young age. I have years of hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages, including newborn kittens, energetic kittens and cats, and senior cats who all require extra attention, patience and love. I also have well-rounded experience caring for dogs. I have experience with mature and senior dogs, including boarding them, caring for, and walking. I have cared for energetic dogs to calmer dogs and always tailor my care toward their needs. I have dog walking experience on both trail walks and city walks and design appropriate routes depending on the dog’s ability and character. I understand the importance of routine, attentiveness, and gentle handling while caregiving and always follow instructions diligently. Over time, friends and family have relied on me to check in on, feed, play, pet sit, and board their pets for days or weeks while they were away, trusting me to keep their pets safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I currently work from home 3 days a week, only 2 days in office so I will have plenty of time and flexibility to care for pets. I am available Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays for check ins or walks. I am also available on weekends and most holidays for all services. I am very respectful of others homes. I will follow every detail and instruction I am given. I can stay in clients homes for boarding, walks, or check-ins. I can provide multiple updates or whatever the client desires. I am accepting of camera monitoring if desired to ensure trust and safety for clients. I have no children and only 1 cat in my house and live in very quiet neighborhood ensuring tranquility for pets to feel safe and comfortable in my home.
About: What sets me apart is my extensive background as a veterinary technician. I started in animal shelters and later worked in veterinary practices, caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. That experience gives me confidence handling everything from energetic puppies who need structure and reinforcement, to senior pets requiring medication, patience, and gentle care. I’ve fostered more animals than I can count, which has given me a strong understanding of behavior, transitions, and how to make pets feel safe and secure in new environments. Although I’ve recently changed careers and returned to school, I deeply miss being around animals. My own pets have crossed the rainbow bridge, and caring for others’ fur babies truly fills that space in my heart. Pet sitting isn’t just a side job for me — it’s something I genuinely love. I live in a loving, multi-generational home where pets truly become part of the family. There is almost always someone around, which means plenty of supervised attention, affection, and companionship throughout the day. Dogs staying with us receive lots of love, playtime, and, of course, belly rubs. They are never left feeling alone and are spoiled in the very best way — with structure, safety, and tons of positive interaction. My goal is to provide a warm, home-like environment where your pet feels comfortable, secure, and genuinely cared for. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I’m currently a full-time student, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to plan my days around the pets in my care. I’m available most days and evenings, and I’m happy to accommodate overnight stays, drop-ins, or daytime care. If you need something specific, just reach out — I’m always willing to see if we can make it work! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. While I do not have a fenced-in yard, I have a large yard for leashed walks and supervised outdoor time. We also have a wonderful, quiet area right on my street that’s perfect for longer, structured walks. With my background as a veterinary technician, I’m very comfortable monitoring behavior, recognizing signs of stress or illness, and administering medications if needed. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I follow your routines closely to keep them feeling secure and at ease. While you’re away, your pet won’t just be “watched” — they’ll be cared for, exercised, and loved like part of the family. I truly aim to give them a safe, happy experience that feels like their own little vacation.
About: I've had all types of animals growing up. From small critters to dogs. Currently own 2 cats named Sasha and Coco, chickens and have 3 freshwater fish tanks. I've house/pet sit for friends over the years. I have pretty good flexibility everyday for short visits > 2 hours. I have two young children in school so depending on time frame one might have to accompany me but if not needed I can work around it. My cats are pretty self sufficient as cats are but they are fed every morning and evening and get treats. They are indoor cats aged 7 and 8. I feed fish daily and do water changes once a week as Maintenance. Chickens are a bit more daily maintenance with cleaning out coop everyday and filling water and feeder but it's rewarding (especially with getting eggs)

I have many years of experience with having my own dog as well as taking care of family members dogs☺️ I live in a house in Buzzards Bay with a large yard and a quiet neighborhood for great long walks that I love to go on! I also live right across from the canal and it’s my favorite walking area to do. I love dogs and see them as if they were a child and love them as if they were my own. I have plenty of time to fully attend to your dogs every need- plenty of exercise and attention! I have lots of availability to fit in all the needs of your dog that they may need! Morning, afternoon or nightly walks, play or over night care. My pets are greatly cared for in my home, I would also treat your fur baby as one of my own in your home or mine
“Seonmin is very responsive and sent photos and videos daily to me even without me asking! Lucky was so happy staying with her family and felt like he was home which even made me a little bit jealous, cuz Lucky really loves Seonmin’s husband! I definitely will come back to her again whenever I need to board Lucky again!”
“My babies were so well cared for and loved by this family. I can’t say enough good things. If you want your fur babies to be treated like family Alysia is the way to go.”
“My Golden Retriever Bailey stayed with Kevin for 9 days while we were out of town. Kevin did an excellent job taking care of Bailey for us. He sent pics and videos which was really nice to get. I would highly recommend Kevin to take care of your Fur Babies. You can tell he has a lot of experience. I will definitely be rebooking Kevin again.”
“Fantastic dog sitter! She is compassionate and takes fantastic care of your pet. My dog was happy and comfortable the entire time she was away and the level of care is even better than a professional facility. She even sends daily pictures and videos and that is great when missing your pup. Next time I need to leave my dog I will definitely be sending her back over Nathalias!!”
“Ruby was a terrific dog sitter! She was very flexible and understanding about scheduling changes and most importantly took wonderful care of our Golden Retriever. Thank you for making Penny feel so comfortable and for all of the great updates throughout, Ruby!!”
“Steve was so well cared for that I don’t think he wanted to actually be home, haha! Thank you for treating our baby like one of your own. We are grateful to have you so close and will contact you again in the future for sure!”
“Jen and her family took excellent care of our dog while he was staying with them. She took him for walks, played frisbee and let him run with her dog all day long. Our lab loved it there! They were very friendly, sent lots of pictures and were easy to coordinate pick up and drop off with. We are so grateful to have found her and will definitely be boarding our dog with her again. She was wonderful!”
“Scout had a wonderful time at Jessica's house. He is a rescue, and is sometimes anxious, but she made him feel right at home. He even made a few doggie buddies along that way that he fun romping with. I'd definitely recommend Jessica to mind your furry family members. Kate and John and Scout”
“If I could give more stars, I would! Shatane and her family are truly wonderful people. They treated Ziggy and me with respect and showed Ziggy love and attention every day during his 3-day stay this week. I would definitely recommend Shatane—excellent communication, with plenty of updates, pictures, and videos.”
