“Phenomenal care! Amber is a wonderful sitter, very caring, kind, empathetic and truly loves dogs. My Dante got a lot of love and attention. Amber communicated well, plenty of updates, pictures and videos. Best care for your furry kiddo! Highly recommend Amber as your sitter.”
“Sue has watched my two pups twice now and I cannot express enough at how grateful and lucky I feel to have found her! She truly loves dogs and I know when they are there that they are being cared and loved for exactly as if they were home. My dogs are attached at my hip, but when we get to Sue’s house, they are clearly so happy to be with her that it makes leaving them a LOT easier. Sue has been able to set my mind at ease (which is not a simple task!) and is very trustworthy. I highly recommend her services, she is now definitely my go-to sitter!”
“The dogs seemed to enjoy Michael’s house for their first visit, which was four days. He sent lots of pictures and videos making sure to keep us updated with everything going on. Our dogs have very different personalities and one is young and one quite old. They did very well and it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were being well cared for in such a good home setting. They are our family members too and this is so important to us. We would definitely recommend Michael to anyone.”
“I would highly recommend Tamara for your pet boarding needs. Very responsive and caring for our dog. She went out of her way to accommodate changes to our boarding plans which including being able to pick our dog up. Definitely will be booking again with her in the future.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Vignesh from the start. He took excellent care of Olive and was very attentive to her needs. When Olive had an upset tummy, prepared boiled chicken and rice for her, which we really appreciated. It gave us great peace of mind knowing Olive was in such caring and capable hands while we were away. We would absolutely recommend him and would be happy to have Olive stay with him again in the future.”
“Blaze loved his time at Erica's. Frequent pictures shared showed him happy as a clam playing with his buddies in fenced in yard . It was very stress free for us to see him so happy. Erica was responsive & accommodative.”
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and neighbor since middle school. I’m always the one they rely on for pet care. I have a love for dogs since I grew up with them. I have experience dealing with senior dogs, as I had a senior dog of my own growing up. I believe this taught me a lot of patience, which is a great attribute to have even with younger pups. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions! I don’t start my job until June 22, so I have plenty of free time at home to take care of your babies! Until then I will just be hanging around my house and would love an animal to keep me company and busy! I don’t have pets in my college home yet but it is very pet friendly! There is also a huge field right behind my house perfect for playing
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly love caring for them! I have hands-on experience with a variety of breeds, including Goldendoodles, Labradoodles, Bernedoodles, and German Shepherds. I understand the unique personalities and needs of each dog of all ages and make it my mission to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or just a cozy cuddle session, I treat every dog like my own. You can trust that your pup will be in warm, reliable, and capable hands! As a teacher, my schedule becomes much more flexible after June 17th when the school year ends. I babysit on Tuesdays, but aside from that, my days are open for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. I’m excited to dedicate more of my time this summer to spending quality time with pets and providing dependable, loving care whenever needed. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment for all pets in my care. I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and stretch their legs, and there’s a beautiful park just a short walk away for fun walks and exercise. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your pet’s routine, provide plenty of affection and supervision, and make sure they feel secure. I also send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“I immediately felt confident that Pippa would be well cared for by Melissa. Clearly she got plenty of exercise as she slept very soundly once I got her home. Thank you Melissa!”
“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.”
“As always Baxter had a wonderful time with Tracee and family! Such a warm and welcoming home. We feel so lucky to have found you Tracee! Thanks for taking such good care of Baxter!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Chelsea K! She took amazing care of my dog, Dexter, and went above and beyond in every way. Her home was spotless and provided such a clean, comfortable environment that immediately put me at ease. Chelsea’s attention to detail was incredible—she followed all of Dexter’s routines perfectly and made sure he felt right at home. What really stood out to me was her patience and genuine care. Dexter can be a little shy at first, but Chelsea took the time to help him feel comfortable and safe, which I truly appreciated. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own in a clean, welcoming space, Chelsea is the one to book!”
“Gabriel is a wonderful guy, it is obvious how caring he is with the dogs. The videos were wonderful seeing our furry family member while away. I will definitely use Gabriel for my next need of Doggy Care”

“Melissa did a great job taking care of yummy! We had a two-week extended stay. She shared photo updates regularly and flags issues proactively. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Victoria was very easy to work with. We left our dog with a sitter for the first time. He did very well with Victoria, and she sent texts and photos to keep us updated on him. When we go away I will feel very confident to leave him with her again. I will give her 5 stars as far as care for my dog.”

I felt very comfortable with him there. He always leaves the house very clean and Leo seems to love him. I am thrilled that we found Logan!”

She even did this during Christmas Eve and Christmas, I can’t thank her enough. Highly recommended”
About: I have had a few of my own cats growing up. Long & short haired. I also fostered a mother cat & her kittens who were a week old. She had 4 kittens. I have foster other cats too for a few months while living with a roommate. My two current cats have special needs. I have tried my best to administer medications for my cats but they both really hate it! Litter boxes don't bother me at all. My cats are very spoiled, and I give them a special breakfast every morning! I love to play with my cats. They love shoestrings and they will create a bed out of anything, especially cardboard boxes.
About: Hello! I'm Amy Wade, animal lover and advocate. I've had all kinds of pets throughout my life, and of course, dogs AND cats. (See pictures.) Not only have I cared for my own cats, but other people's cats as well. I'm not like other sitters- I really spend TIME with your cat. I bring stimulating toys, (if you have a young cat who likes to play.) If you have an older cat, I offer a loving presence and affection. Your cat runs the show- I cater to his/her needs and behaviors. If you have a cat that likes to hide, I will simply be present, and allow him/her to approach me. (Most often they do.) I'm intuitive and have a very calming presence. I will take pictures or videos to send you, if that makes you comfortable. I will provide the absolute best cat care if you've ever had. No need to look further. My references will assure you of that! Thank you for visiting my profile. I look forward to meeting you and your precious feline.

“I think our puppy Lucy officially found her second home with Dawn and her family! Knowing we needed a sitter before even bringing our puppy home, I turned to Rover and found Dawn—and I’m so glad I did. She went above and beyond from the start, even coming over with her kids to meet Lucy beforehand. She’s truly salt of the earth, and I immediately felt at ease the moment I met her. As first-time dog parents, we had plenty of questions and requests, and Dawn was so accommodating, evening keeping us updated with the sweetest photos. I loved that on our first daycare service Lucy got to socialize with her kids and even play with another dog while she was there. On top of that, my husband has a difficult work schedule, and Dawn was incredibly flexible, which made everything so much easier. Watching a hyper puppy is no small task, but Dawn handled it with such care and patience. We are so grateful to have Dawn and her family in out circle!”
“Elizabeth was amazing with our two dogs. They were well cared for and loved all day long. She sent photos of them playing and having fun throughout the day as well. We will definitely be using her again and are so glad to have found someone we trust with our babies!”
“Blu loved his stay with Colette and Sammy. . He was able to play out in fenced yard and he really connected with Colette. On his last day he made sure to give a little kiss. Thanks again Colette.”
About: Hello! I’ve been professionally caring for animals since I was 12 years old and got my first dog sitting gig. Over the years, my family has had every kind of pet: horses, sheep, dogs, cats, birds, iguanas even! I find great joy in showing the animals I work with lots of love and guidance. I’ve trained my own and others' horses, dogs and cats over the years and it’s just the most rewarding experience. I work part time and mostly from home which allows me to be available all day to care for pets. I’m a big fan of a consistent routine with animals rotating stimulation (exercise, play, training or enrichment) meals, rest and balancing the three. I care for pets on my property which is almost entirely fenced in. I have professional kennels in a mixed use building with a residential portion attached. So I have the luxury of providing secure and roomy kennels with the addition of our cozy home area. I can take most types of pets and I’m especially suited to care for animals that do not do well in large boarding facilities, don’t do well with other pets or just want a more personalized, quiet boarding experience. I don’t believe it is always necessary to socialize dogs with dogs and right now that’s not something I do (unless they are boarding from the same owners). I focus on routine, a bit of training and connection with humans! I have a fenced in run where dogs can be off leash for playing, enrichment etc. I designed our kennels myself and had them custom built. Each stall is separated by concrete walls to provide a private and safe space. I chose mental fencing for the top of the partition and the door. I chose this instead of the plastic, glass or solid door options because it provides optimal airflow and allows them to see out. I also have private suites separate from that area.
“My dog loved it with them. With a new puppy I felt comfortable leaving her with them, and the did a great job with her. Loved the updates throughout the day. Will use them again as I feel safe leaving my puppy with them”
“Amber was absolutely amazing when I was in need of last second care, she went out of her way to send me updates and photos throughout the day which I greatly appreciated as well as picking up and dropping off my baby. She’s a saint!”
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.

“Lindsey was very easy to work with and quick to respond. Bailey had a great day, kept busy, made some new friends and enjoyed her walks. We appreciated the pictures that were taken of their activities during the day. Highly recommend and thank you Lindsey!”
“Lauren took great care of my baby Scotch when I was visiting Worcester. She kept him for doggy daycare and when I picked him up he was in such a good mood. Usually he gets really sad when I leave him but Lauren ensured he was happy. He went out for great walks and got some good playtime in. She kept us updated on everything throughout the day and included pictures. We are so happy with her service and wished we had a sitter like her in our hometown. 10/10 would HIGHLY recommend”
“Brenda clearly loves dogs! She was very attentive to Bailey throughout the day. We received several photos and notes about their activity. And Bailey clearly enjoyed his time with Brenda.”

“Andreana was very kind and easy to communicate with. She made sure my dog was comfortable and that everything about the experience was to my convenience. I would definitely come to her again and recommend her to others!”
“This week I was extremely impressed with the kindness of Michael as he offered to watch Charolette in New Year’s Day. I have an early schedule so drop off was 6:30 am so this was exceptional commitment to customer service I’m my regards. I also have a scheduled that fluctuates and last week was put on call one of the days that I pre paid canceling a day I’d need service last minute. Michael offered to watch Charolette overnight no charge New Year’s Day as I was scheduled to work two 12 hr shifts back to back as a convenience to me. I am so appreciative and happy with the care I’m receiving using Michael’s business for the care of my dog whom I consider family. Thank you Michael for all you do!”

About: With experience from my own pets, working at boarding facilities, and overnight pet-sitting, I have the experience needed to provide the best care possible. From insulin administration to walking cats- I have everything you need covered. Check out my TikTok to see if you like how I operate- a screenshot of it is in my photos. Summer I am open indefinitely! I am a substitute teacher, so during these months I have all the time for your furry friends whether it is for a week, two days, or just pop-ins for bathroom and play relief while you are working and doing other things. Want a vacation but all the boarding facilities need six months advanced booking? Give me a chance, and I'll make your animals my main priority and give more one on one care than a kennel could. From pets to walks to playing or snuggles- your pet's anxiety will be low as possible knowing they won't be alone all day. I'll even turn on soothing music for your dogs or turn on the Cat TV channel on YouTube before my department- nothing is too ridiculous when it comes to our pet's comfort. In a clients home, I aim to strive for total cleanliness and total satisfaction from your pets. I love to tire out any high energy pets and slow it down for older pets. After your pet is satisfied and happy and I have cleaned any litter boxes or outside business, then I will know I have done my job.
“Jackie has been a godsend to both my and puppy. Seriously wouldn’t know what we would do with out her. She has beenvery invested to helping me figure out his needs as he adjusted to being in a new home and crate. She treats my home well and will even give the cat a little love too.”
“Logan has been absolutely amazing with my dog, Milo! His communication is excellent — he always keeps me updated with messages and photos from their walks, which gives me peace of mind. He’s incredibly responsible and caring, and it’s clear that he truly loves spending time with the dogs he walks. Milo is always excited to see him.”
About: I am very open in my schedule and absolutely love dogs. I have grown up with at least one dog in my home my whole life and now own my own black lab mix. To me, pets are family! I have been a nanny for many years and all of the families have also had dogs that I would take care of simultaneously. I also worked for a few families to care for their dogs in the past assisting with feedings, play time, and walks. I have some experience training using a clicker as I have trained my own dog and know of little tricks. Dogs brighten up my day and I love being around them whenever I can. I love all breeds and sizes of dogs as well as all other animals. I have been doing this full time for about a year and a half, and am excited to continue! I am always accepting new clients and am working on becoming a certified dog trainer. I am currently pet sitting full time, so my schedule is very open depending on my bookings. I have current dog walks mid-day Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri and those are my only repeat clients weekly. I offer caring for pets in my client’s homes and always make sure to ask about fenced in yards, typical behaviors of the dog, any behaviors I need to watch out for for instance if a dog resource guards or is aggressive with other dogs or people, allergies, and any other precautions I need to be aware of to safely, effectively, and empathetically to take care of the animal. I also only do walks on sidewalks or non busy roads when possible.
“Connor is amazing. I have talked to him twice on emergency situations and both times he has been responsive and very respectful. He was punctual to bring my Frenchie out. He was very communicative to tell me how the day went. I would 100% recommend him and have him take care of my dog too. Thank you, Connor!”

“Justin is the best dog walker I’ve had for my little Gia. She is American Pitbull Terrior who is so playful happy and sweet he helps get her energy out during the day while I’m at work. She does pull a little on the leash but Justin is really good about working with her on not pulling and a plus, he teaches her cool little tricks!! I would def recommend him to walk your dog!!”

About: Hello and thank you for visiting my profile! You clicked on THE absolute best pet-sitter you will ever find. My name is Amy, and I LOVE ANIMALS. I've had pets since childhood; dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, lizards, bunnies, fish, ferrets, and turtles. Most of my pets are rescued. I'm a great dog walker- I will take your dog for a lengthy walk, (or a slow stroll for my older clients) and I will provide him/her with attention, love, and affection. According to their needs, I can sit with your pet to offer comfort and companionship, or romp around on the floor or in the yard for exercise and stimulation. My visits can be tailored to your requests. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and committed. Your pet's health and safety come first. I will take pictures during my visits (or videos, if you'd like) so you know your pet is being cared for. If you have a cat, I will bring toys for stimulating activity, or simply sit with him/her and offer a comforting presence. I also care for gerbils, hamsters, bunnies, birds, and turtles. If you have fish, I will feed them, and give them attention. (Yes, I connect with fish.) I understand animals. I relate to them. I'm intuitive to their needs. And of course, I have great references. There is no better pet-sitter on the planet than me. I look forward to meeting you and your precious family member! I'm currently available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. I can be flexible in the morning, afternoon, or early evening hours. If you need more than one visit per day, that can be arranged as well. I will show up with great energy, a calming presence, and toys to play with (according to your pet's needs.) I'm not like other pet sitters- I really spend TIME with your pets. I'm intuitive and understand their needs. For younger pets, I offer lots of play and exercise- stimulation is important! I'm physically fit and would be happy to walk your dog if requested. After the walk, I will sit with him/her and offer my affection and attention. I will refresh their water bowl, feed them, (if requested) offer a treat, (if requested) brush them, play with them, or simply sit with them and be a calming presence in their day. It all depends on your pet's needs. I cater to their behavior and energy. If you have other pets in your home (gerbils, fish, turtles, bunnies, birds, etc) I would consider caring for them during your vacations. All to be discussed and negotiated, of course. As you can see from my profile, I'm very accommodating and flexible, and I offer a wide range of services. For overnight visits, my rate reflects a time frame from 8pm-7am. If you need me to do day visits as well, please explain in the messaging section when you contact me.
“Derek was great with Jasper. He was able to assist us with walking him on short notice, and was very responsive and communicative. I would recommend Derek to anyone who needs their pup walked!”
About: Hi I’m Julie! I absolutely adore dogs and would love to care for yours! I love all kinds, no preferences at all. I’ve cared for my owns dogs basically since I was born and have been dog sitting many different dogs for years. I believe it’s one of the best jobs because it doesn’t feel like work at all. I’m very patient and caring. I also love playing with any active dogs but also love just chilling with more inactive or senior dogs. I’ve got an excellent house and neighborhood to walk or host dogs, with a big yard with lots of running space. The neighborhood is safe and scenic with very little traffic. To work with you and your dogs would be such a pleasure!
“Rileigh was awesome. I had to make a last minute scramble for a walker and she came through for me. I was very impressed with her natural affection for Findlay and will definitely call on her again.”
“Our dog is a handful and Gabriela has done such an amazing job with him. She is incredibly patient and goes over the top to make sure Bruno is able to get all of his energy (and he has a LOT of it) out during their mid-day walks. She has even stayed over their allotted time if he needs a little extra time to get settled back in after their walk, giving him lots of water and treats to hold him over until we get home. So happy we found Gabriela!”
“Tori has been walking our 2 dogs, Apollo & Mia, for a few weeks now. She communicates well & is very accommodating. She takes great care of our pups and I know they enjoy their weekly walks with her. Would definitely recommend Tori for any dog sitting/walking needs!”

I currently work at a pet resort, where I look after pets every day, making sure they’re happy, healthy, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or feeding time. I treat every animal like my own. I’m also well trained in giving medications or any type of special care! I know how important your pets are, and I’m here to give them the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I currently work at a pet resort where I work all types of hours, from Tuesday-Saturday. I can work anywhere from 6AM-6PM but I’m very flexible with fitting you and your pups into my schedule! Since I have so much experience with animals, I’m okay with helping out with almost anything you need for your pets! Whether it’s cleaning, potty breaks, playing, feeding, medications. I’d love to just spend some time with your pet and be their friend! I do not take pets to my home as I have reactive animals, but I’m always okay with commuting to yours!

“The dogs seemed to enjoy Michael’s house for their first visit, which was four days. He sent lots of pictures and videos making sure to keep us updated with everything going on. Our dogs have very different personalities and one is young and one quite old. They did very well and it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were being well cared for in such a good home setting. They are our family members too and this is so important to us. We would definitely recommend Michael to anyone.”
“I would highly recommend Tamara for your pet boarding needs. Very responsive and caring for our dog. She went out of her way to accommodate changes to our boarding plans which including being able to pick our dog up. Definitely will be booking again with her in the future.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Vignesh from the start. He took excellent care of Olive and was very attentive to her needs. When Olive had an upset tummy, prepared boiled chicken and rice for her, which we really appreciated. It gave us great peace of mind knowing Olive was in such caring and capable hands while we were away. We would absolutely recommend him and would be happy to have Olive stay with him again in the future.”
“Blaze loved his time at Erica's. Frequent pictures shared showed him happy as a clam playing with his buddies in fenced in yard . It was very stress free for us to see him so happy. Erica was responsive & accommodative.”
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and neighbor since middle school. I’m always the one they rely on for pet care. I have a love for dogs since I grew up with them. I have experience dealing with senior dogs, as I had a senior dog of my own growing up. I believe this taught me a lot of patience, which is a great attribute to have even with younger pups. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions! I don’t start my job until June 22, so I have plenty of free time at home to take care of your babies! Until then I will just be hanging around my house and would love an animal to keep me company and busy! I don’t have pets in my college home yet but it is very pet friendly! There is also a huge field right behind my house perfect for playing
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly love caring for them! I have hands-on experience with a variety of breeds, including Goldendoodles, Labradoodles, Bernedoodles, and German Shepherds. I understand the unique personalities and needs of each dog of all ages and make it my mission to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or just a cozy cuddle session, I treat every dog like my own. You can trust that your pup will be in warm, reliable, and capable hands! As a teacher, my schedule becomes much more flexible after June 17th when the school year ends. I babysit on Tuesdays, but aside from that, my days are open for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. I’m excited to dedicate more of my time this summer to spending quality time with pets and providing dependable, loving care whenever needed. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment for all pets in my care. I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and stretch their legs, and there’s a beautiful park just a short walk away for fun walks and exercise. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your pet’s routine, provide plenty of affection and supervision, and make sure they feel secure. I also send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“I immediately felt confident that Pippa would be well cared for by Melissa. Clearly she got plenty of exercise as she slept very soundly once I got her home. Thank you Melissa!”
“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.”
“As always Baxter had a wonderful time with Tracee and family! Such a warm and welcoming home. We feel so lucky to have found you Tracee! Thanks for taking such good care of Baxter!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Chelsea K! She took amazing care of my dog, Dexter, and went above and beyond in every way. Her home was spotless and provided such a clean, comfortable environment that immediately put me at ease. Chelsea’s attention to detail was incredible—she followed all of Dexter’s routines perfectly and made sure he felt right at home. What really stood out to me was her patience and genuine care. Dexter can be a little shy at first, but Chelsea took the time to help him feel comfortable and safe, which I truly appreciated. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own in a clean, welcoming space, Chelsea is the one to book!”
“Gabriel is a wonderful guy, it is obvious how caring he is with the dogs. The videos were wonderful seeing our furry family member while away. I will definitely use Gabriel for my next need of Doggy Care”
“Rhadika is amazing! She is wonderful with our black lab who has a few medical issues. Rhadika was very open to her medicine schedule. Our dog seemed so comfortable and happy with Rhadika! She provides pictures and updates. Can’t wait to use her again!!!”
“Victoria was very easy to work with. We left our dog with a sitter for the first time. He did very well with Victoria, and she sent texts and photos to keep us updated on him. When we go away I will feel very confident to leave him with her again. I will give her 5 stars as far as care for my dog.”
“Liz was great! She took great care of my pet. Communicating with her was neat and simple. My dog usually follows a schedule and I see no difference after his stay with her. Hope, he'll be happy to go back.”
“Our dogs had the best weekend with Kexin and Carlos (and their new furry friends)! Everything was super easy and smooth. They kept us updated with great pictures and videos and even gave us sweet mementos of their stay. We will absolutely book again and highly recommend them!! Thank you both so much for your thoughtfulness and care with Franklin and Riley!”
“We had a great experience with Andreana! She was phenomenal in communicating with us and kept us updated with a lots of pictures of Lady. She took great care in daily grooming, both her hair and teeth, which isn’t always an easy task. 😉 Our dog seemed happy and relaxed when we came back. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. 😊”
