“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.”

She is dependable, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with.”

“During the stay I received updates throughout the day about what Mipha was doing which I always appreciate. Unfortunately my sweet little brat decided she didn't like their crate at night, and they accommodated to her needs. I would definitely recommend Shea and Damien for boarding!”

About: I’ve been around cats for most of my life and have always enjoyed taking care of animals. I’m responsible, patient, and understand that every cat has its own personality and routine. I know that some cats are very social while others need a little more time and personal space, so I always try to follow their personality and routine rather than forcing interaction. My goal is to make sure your cat feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.
About: I have always had a love for dogs (and all animals really!). I have been training and caring for my own dogs for over 15 years of my life. I have experience with special needs dogs (my own dog is deaf and I have had a deaf/blind dog in the past), I love to offer basic puppy and obedience training, multi dog walks and hiking adventures! I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments. I use positive only methods and believe that all dogs deserve quality enrichment that lets them just be themselves. I currently work from home but my schedule is very open and flexible. I spend a good amount of my day training my own dogs, providing enrichment and play with them on a daily basis and would love the opportunity to provide the same for your pup! When walking dogs, I do prefer that connectors are used for everyone’s safety and comfort and can provide them if needed! Any instructions left will be followed and I am willing to work with any training you are already doing with your pups to ensure smooth situations for all.
“Eko and Sarah did an excellent job cat sitting for us! Before the booking they came and met the cats, and we were immediately impressed with the very thoughtful questions and the thorough note taking. They seemed to really understand cats, and asked some insightful questions I hadn’t even thought of. One of our cats has a medical condition that requires regular medicine, and they took it very seriously, and even offered to check in on her again for free during the day to confirm she was ok. They even found a way to get our more picky cat to eat when they were there (treats on the food!) The regular updates and cat photos were great, and really gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation.”
“I can’t say enough about how much my boys loved Carley and how amazing she was with them. I’m not sure they even want me home!!! I can’t say enough… she treated my pups like they were her own!!!”
“Katherine is an excellent pet sitter! Instantly, my cat who is normally quite shy walked right up to her. She has a calm demeanor and clearly a lot of experience working with animals. My cat loved her and she did a great job taking care of him! I will definitely have Katherine pet sit in the future next time I am out of town!”
“Tori was able to squeeze in my very short notice appointment, she followed every instruction provided and most importantly used the 30ft leash provided so my dog could go to his favorite place to run laps! Couldn’t be happier and would recommend her to anyone looking for reliability! I will be using her again!”
About: I have experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities, and I love getting to know each cat on their own terms. Whether your cat is playful and social, shy and cautious, or somewhere in between, I’m happy to follow their lead and give them the kind of attention they’re comfortable with. My veterinary experience has given me experience caring for cats with different needs, including administering oral and topical medications. I’m comfortable following feeding routines, cleaning litter boxes, providing enrichment and playtime, and of course giving plenty of attention and cuddles to cats who want them! I know that cats can be happiest staying in their own familiar environment while their people are away, and I’ll make sure they get consistent, attentive care and some extra love while you’re gone.
“This was my 2nd time booking with Alison, I was so happy to know she was available for the time I was away again. She’s great to communicate with and always sends tons of photos during her visits 😊”
“We were very happy with Kayla’s service of our two cats while we were away for four days in San Diego. She arrived on the agreed upon times on the dot, she was very communicative with us throughout the duration of our trip—including sending pictures which put us at ease—and she was extremely flexible and accommodating to one of our cats who tends hide from unknown people who come into the house. Kayla is extremely warm and cheerful. We hope to work with her again to check in on our two boys. Kayla made it possible for us to relax and enjoy our trip while we were away.”
“Jenna did a great job taking care of our cat, even bringing her treats. We recieved lots of pictures in our daily update which gave us peace of mind while we were away. She also brought in our mail! I would highly recommend her.”
“Liz was excellent. I was Away for the holidays for 6 days. Liz always showed up and communicated clear and well while taking care of my two cats. She did an excellent job with the feedings and keeping the cats area/litter box spotless. I couldnt Have asked for a better cat sitter/ in home visits. She even did this during Christmas Eve and Christmas, I can’t thank her enough. Highly recommended”

“Lingwen was awesome! Very responsive. Ready right at drop off and pick up times. So sweet and careful with our little Princess that our puppy felt safe almost immediately after meeting her. Her place is beautiful, with plenty of space for our puppy to explore and play with others. She took great pictures and videos that kept us up to date on how our puppy was doing througout the stay. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Our first day with Melissa went very well. We wanted a sitter who had a small young dog to socialize with our Louie, and her Casper was a great playmate. We'll do it again! Thank you!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats in my house since I was born and I’ve always been a part of walking, feeding, bathing, playing with, and giving meds to them. I have taken care of my dog who is elderly, has worn diapers and has experienced surgery and anesthetics. I really enjoy being around animals of all kinds! I only work about 1-3 hourly per day! I’m always around to hang out and play with pets. I always will have someone around the pets so they’ll never be alone. I know a lot of the behavioral signs of discomfort in animals, I always want the pets I’m working with to enjoy their time. I will always make sure a pet is in a safe and fitting environment for their needs. I have worked with pets who are sick, directly after surgery, and who need medication administered
“Alexis was such a kind and patient sitter! She immediately knew how to handle Louis with him being so small and even cleaned up an accident he had indoors! Her dog and Louis got along so well and we would absolutely recommend Alexis to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
“I left my dog Pretzel with Sabrina overnight, and she was absolutely wonderful with her. My puppy, Hunter, also joined for doggy daycare and had a great time. He absolutely loves her, and she even shared some really helpful training advice for him. I definitely recommend Sabrina—she’s knowledgeable, caring, and truly great with dogs. I’ll absolutely be using her services again in the future!”
About: I have had a dog in my home since I was 11 years old. I have had small dogs and large dogs alike, mostly full of energy. I have dog sat in the past in home but prefer to do it at my own as I have my own dog. We love to go on forest hikes with our black lab, Pickle, and keep her tired and happy. I currently work from home and have a dog of my own that I play with throughout the day. She is rarely alone and gets taken out whenever she requests. I have a black lab of my own that is my baby. She sleeps on the furniture and has her own queen sized bed. We have two bags of toys and we are constantly playing fetch on our third of an acre yard.
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: In my house or yours! What sets me apart is that I offer truly personalized, low-volume care in a calm home environment. Mine or yours. I only take one or two guest dogs at a time, so your dog gets lots of individual attention, affection, and supervision — not the chaos of a large kennel or crowded daycare setting. I’ve cared for six dogs of my own throughout my life and loved every one of them through all stages of life, including senior years and end-of-life care. I understand how important routines, patience, comfort, and trust are when caring for someone’s beloved pet. I love all dogs, but my home is especially well-suited for: • Dogs who prefer a quieter environment • Dogs needing medication or special routines • Dogs who don’t do well in large group settings • Dogs who are not friendly with other dogs* • Owners looking for flexible pickup/drop-off times Your dog will enjoy a fully fenced backyard, one daily leash walk, personalized feeding and medication schedules, and lots of companionship throughout the day. Plus flexible pick up and drop-off times. My goal is simple: I want your dog to feel safe, relaxed, loved, and at home while you’re away. I am willing to take 3 dogs, but only if they all come from the same home. *If you require your dog to be the ONLY dog in the household, please reach out to me before booking. I work primarily from home, so dogs in my care receive lots of companionship, supervision, outdoor time, and attention throughout the day — not long periods left alone. In my home, dogs are treated like part of the family with plenty of supervision, companionship, outdoor time, a daily walk, and personalized feeding or medication schedules. I only care for one or two dogs at a time to maintain a calm, low-stress environment. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away.
“Pippa has another stellar visit with Andreana and Milo. I booked the day on short notice and Andreana was very accommodating. Pippa was a very happy pup when I came to pick her up and showed that she had a great time once again”
“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”
“I was attending an event near Michael’s place and needed somewhere last-minute for my little chihuahua-mix (Billy) to hang out. I sent the request only the night before, and was so grateful Michael was so accommodating and accepted. I received photos of Billy having a great time outside with other dogs and he seemed very happy when I picked him up! I would definitely have Billy stay at Michael’s place again.”
“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: I have been around animals ever since I was born, and started my first job petsitting in only 6th grade. I have worked with a variety of animals ranging from dogs and cats, to ducks, to chinchillas, to horses! I’ve always felt like I have a strong connection with animals, and see my own animals as children. This is why I want to help others take care of their fur babies knowing that they are in safe kind hands while they are away. It is my number one priority to make sure your animal is happy, safe, and comfortable in your absence. Every animal has its own personality, and I’ve loved bonding with so many animals over the years. Animal experience: -dog -cat -horse -goat -chicken -duck -bunny -hamster -Guinea pig -chinchilla -turtle -hermit crab -fish Pet sitting is my full time job, so I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day for walks, drop in visits, and overnight care. I do have a few weekly dog walking clients that typically keep me busy from around 10 AM to 2 PM, but outside of those visits I am generally very flexible and can work around your schedule. I am also happy to accommodate same day bookings whenever possible! I firmly believe that a consistent routine for an animal is key to keeping them comfortable, especially if you are to leave. I would follow the owners daily routine to help keep your animals calmer. If they are crate trained I can put them in their crate, watch them in the yard, take them on walks, play with them, and cuddle at the end of the day. I strongly believe in the saying “leave it better than you found it”, which I intend to do in your home!
“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’ve had a passion for animals and pet care since I was a little girl. I have raised litters of kittens, pet sat for friends and strangers, and volunteered at rescue centers.

Currently I am available week days and weekends, I have a reliable vehicle to either stop in or stay full days/nights while your pets stay in the comfort of their own homes. I do work 8 am - 4pm Monday through Friday. So I can visit before and after work or stay over and be there before and after. I care for my own pets the best I know how, along with giving them lots of love and cuddles. I have worked with healthy pets but also ones that need a little extra TLC, whether that is medication, extra time for introductions to make them feel comfortable, or special diets. I am willing to listen and follow any and all instructions on how to care for your pet. I want you to feel comfortable and confident with who is caring for your pet and how. I understand that your pet is your child and being apart from them can be very difficult.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with professional experience working in veterinary care, as well as previous experience walking dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies and energetic adults to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. I especially enjoy dog walking because I love getting outside, giving pets some enrichment and exercise, and seeing how happy they are afterward. Of course I’m here for the puppy kisses and cuddles too! My veterinary experience has given me experience with a variety of pets and their individual needs, including administering oral medications and topical medications. I also have personal experience caring for a deaf dog, so I understand the importance of adapting communication and care to each pet. I’m comfortable walking dogs up to 100 lbs and have some basic training knowledge that I can incorporate into everyday interactions. I believe consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement go a long way. My goal is to provide dependable daytime walks and drop-in visits while giving your pets the same patience, attention, and affection I would want for my own. I’ll treat your pets like individuals, respect their routines, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I have spent the past 2.5 years dog walking under companies in Boston. I now work at a vet clinic as a receptionist. I miss spending my time outdoors and the hands on experience I gain with dog walking! I have experience with dogs with special needs (deafness blindness and some medical issues). I also have basic experience with training and dogs with behavioral difficulties. I have learned a lot about body language throughout the years and love to get a dog’s brain working on a walk to make it more enriching. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! I’m an animal lover with professional veterinary experience and previous experience working as a dog walker. I enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I’m especially interested in daytime dog walks and drop-in visits on my available days. I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. My goal is always to make sure your pet gets the exercise, enrichment, attention, and affection they need while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Because of my veterinary background, I’m familiar with paying attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and overall wellbeing, and I take each pet’s individual needs seriously. For walks and drop-ins, I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I’m careful about doors, gates, leashes, and other potential escape risks, and I’ll make sure your home is left secure and tidy after each visit. I’m also comfortable administering oral and topical medications when needed. Before caring for a new pet, I like to learn about their personality, routines, triggers, and anything else that will help me provide safe and comfortable care.

I am highly respectful of your privacy and property. I am extremely diligent about locking doors, setting alarms, and ensuring gates are latched. I double check that pets are safely away from the door before I enter or exit. During drop-ins or walks, I focus 100% on your pet. This includes playtime, leashed walks, and, of course, cuddle-cuddle sessions. I will always refresh water bowls and clean up after your furry pal. For overnight sittings, I’m happy to bring in the mail, water plants, and ensure your home stays tidy and secure while you’re away.
About: Every animal brings pure joy into my life, and I genuinely adore caring for all pets—from energetic wanderers to quiet, gentle souls who take a little time to warm up. I meet every pet exactly where they are, learning their unique language, respecting their boundaries, and making sure their days are full of comfort, safety, and genuine love. Living with my own three-legged dog and having nursed my sweet cats through cancer, I bring deep patience and calm confidence to medical routines, medication schedules, and unique physical needs. Whether your companion needs a brisk walk, a gentle ear scratch, or thoughtful care with their daily treatments, I’d love to connect and give your furry family member the dedicated attention they deserve! I have an open, flexible schedule dedicated to pet care from Sunday to Thursday (all day and evening).

When caring for pets in your home, my priority is keeping their environment familiar, safe, and stress-free. I strictly follow your established routine—from exact feeding and medication times to favorite walking routes and play habits—so your pet feels secure and comfortable in their own space. During every visit or house-sitting stay, I provide attentive companionship, clean food and water bowls, and handle any necessary light tidy-up around pet areas. You will always receive detailed updates with photos after each visit, giving you complete peace of mind that your home is secure and your pet is happy, loved, and well cared for.
“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.”
About: *MY AVAILABILITY HAS BEEN UPDATED THROUGH THE END OF 2026!* Hi there, my name is Jared and I currently reside in central MA, Worcester area. I have been working with dogs for 11 years now, starting off as a groomer at Petsmart which was a 9 year career, a full time dog walker for a private business for a year and now dog sitting/walking on my own time. My full time job is a singer/dancer for Carnival Cruise Lines and when I'm home in between contracts, I am looking to make extra cash by lending my services and experience to whatever you may need. Along with grooming and dog walking experience, I have also house sat for numerous dogs ranging from puppy to senior. I'm comfortable with handling medications or special treatments that your pup might need. I hope you consider me and I can't wait to meet you guys! When I am home in between contracts with my full time job as a cruise ship singer/dancer, I have complete open availability. My schedule is set now until the end of 2026! I am vigilant, reliable, trustworthy and confident. I will make sure that your pet isn't out of my sight while I am taking care of it and treat it like my own!

“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.”
“Absolute gem of a sitter! Bella had a great time with Dawn and her family for two nights. They are incredibly nice caring people. They took great care of Bella and provided updates with photos throughout the stay. I recommend Dawn be everyone’s first choice!”
“The best! The last 3.5 years Michael and Martina and Caesar have been my dog's home away from home. They take exceptional care of Ghost in their amazing home. I'm so thankful for their service!!!!!”

“Melissa & Axel took amazing care of our golden retriever over a two night weekend stay. They sent us plenty of updates and we could tell that our dog loved the stay with their family.”
“James and Mallory are very friendly, cordial, and pay attention to what matters. I received answers to any questions I had prior to stay. I received updates on Teddy (my dog), photos of walks, and felt very safe leaving my Teddy there. I would recommend them.”
“Our 10 month old golden retriever had a great time staying with Dina. She was able to accommodate us last minute. She was wonderful with him! Her communication was much appreciated during our time away. We will 100% be using Dina in the near future.”
“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.”
“During the stay I received updates throughout the day about what Mipha was doing which I always appreciate. Unfortunately my sweet little brat decided she didn't like their crate at night, and they accommodated to her needs. I would definitely recommend Shea and Damien for boarding!”
“This was our first time boarding Sophie with Melissa and she did great! We got timely photo and video updates from Melissa all through her stay. Good communication and she took good care of our dog. Will definitely consider her for future boarding needs.”
“Paola and her husband are amazing! My dog has an anxiety disease which has been an issue in most sitters houses but he was 100% happy when I got him back and showing no signs of anxiety through his stay. Will be a returning customer! Thank you so much for the peace of mind! I never have seen my dog so happy!”
“Kyla took such great care of our dog, Zoey, while my family went on vacation. I would not hesitate to leave Zoey with Kyla again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Julie was absolutely incredible with our dogs this weekend. From the moment she arrived, her kindness and warmth were so genuine, and our pups took to her right away. She went above and beyond in every way, thoughtful updates, tons of photos, and little details that made us feel completely at ease while we were away and missing our babies. Our dogs are older and require daily medication, and she handled everything with such care and confidence. They were so spoiled the entire time, always on soft blankets, always comfortable, and clearly so happy to be with her. It was obvious they felt safe, loved, and well cared for. Julie is truly exceptional, and we are so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us. We can’t wait to have her watch our dogs again in the future. Thank you, Julie, for taking such wonderful care of our sweet pups!! ♥️♥️”
