“Paul, Megan and their sweet son were so good with my older dog -- I got the sense that they were excited and grateful for the opportunity to spend a week with Sadie! Great communication, good updates, Sadie didn't even want to leave. She got more attention from her sitters than she usually even gets at home! Happy to have a family that I can trust with my nervous dog going forward!”
“Gienna was great with our dog Murphy. She had excellent communication (lots of notes and photos) during his stay with her and she clearly has a lot of valuable experience taking care of dogs and making sure they adjust into the new space.”

“Jonathan was amazing! He took care of our cat for nearly 3 weeks, sending professional-grade pictures of her every day, keeping us looped in how she was doing, behavioral changes, and overall everything. The best was to see how comfortable and confident Samba felt around him. 100% will book again and recommend.”
“Tawny provided great care to our senior cat, Katniss, while we were away! She was punctual and communication was always super easy. She even helped to bring in mail and water our house plants. But most importantly, Katniss seemed to really love her and we knew she appreciated the visits very much!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and have had a cat of my own since I was a child, so I know just how much our pets become a part of the family. I’ve also had the opportunity to care for my neighbors’, family’s, and friends’ pets while they are away on vacation for the past 6 years. So I have lots of experience with keeping pets comfortable, happy, and on their normal routines while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and little quirks. Whether your cat is playful and energetic, shy and independent, or happiest curled up in a cozy spot, I’ll meet them where they’re comfortable. Most importantly, I’ll treat your fur babies like family and give them the same love, care, and attention I’d want for my own. 🐾❤️
“Maria has watched our cats on two occasions now and has done a great job each time! Hard to find with others- but she even cleans the area/litter around the litter boxes and just does a great job with everything -from actually swapping out to clean fresh bowls at each feeding. Cleanliness, and friendliness goes a long way! We are so grateful we found her. Not an easy task with 5 cats! I would recommend her to care for your animals, too.”
“Vanessa did an amazing job watching my cat. She made sure to give him lots of attention while I was away. She will be the first person I look for again if I need a cat sitter.”
“Michael provided excellent care for our two cats. He was consistent with twice daily drop-ins while we were away on a week- long trip. He gave updates with adorable pics of our babies after each visit and even spent some time playing with them! It gave us peace of mind, knowing our kitties were in good hands while we were away! We highly recommend him!”
“It was my first time using Rover, and Julia made it such an easy experience! She is so kind, and I am thankful that she was able to drop in on our cats while we were on vacation. She sent so many cute and funny pictures, and the cats seemed to really love her. She even went the extra mile and took our trash out for us. We will definitely book with Julia for our next trip!🫶”
“Jordyn was extremely easy to work with and understanding when circumstance changed. Wish we’d been able to complete our reservation with her as scheduled, but again, appreciate her humanity and understanding when we needed to cancel. Round recommend Jordyn to be others, wholeheartedly.”
“Keelyn took great care of my cat while I was away! She came over ahead of time to meet our little family and had clear communication from start to finish. We will be excited to have Keelyn come visit again very soon!”
“Athena got along with Victoria (a miracle for my kitty) and she was well taken care of while I was gone. I loved the pictures so I could see her adventures at home while I was away.”
“Brielle was so helpful in watching our kitty while out of town for a few days! She gave updates, sent lots of pictures and was an excellent communicator. I highly recommend Brielle!!”
About: Hi there! My name is Sam and I am a dog lover looking for more dogs to love on. My husband Eric and I have a very sleepy Pyrenees who we are always looking to introduce to more friends! I love getting to hang with all types of dogs whether it’s walking, playing, or having them stay with us. I’ve cared for elderly dogs, puppies, and everything in between for the last 10 years. Can’t wait to meet you soon! Since covid, I am work from home most of the day and would love an extra furry friend or two to get me out of the house. Because I am work from home, I’m very flexible on walks, day cares, and much more! I love going to the dog parks around town and would be more than happy to take your baby there as well. We have a large fenced in yard to keep your fur baby busy. Not the athletic type? Great! We have a big couch and lots of comfy spots for them to laze around in.

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“My dog has been going to Fae and Joe’s for doggy daycare. She loves to go, see and play with friends. Fae and Joe provide a safe and dog friendly environment, regular updates of photos and videos. My dog is very happy staying with them!”
“Jodi was very accommodating with us to have our dog cared for while we are visiting the area. She has a great backyard for dogs to play. She also gave us great recommendations for things to do and where to get the best clam chowder. If we are ever back visiting we hope Jodi will be available to take care of Nelly.”
“My dog has separation anxiety and Julia gives him the attention and love he needs to feel comfortable while I'm gone. I love that she has a fenced in yard so my dog can sniff around safely and enjoy the sunshine!”
“Lisa saved the day and took great care of our pups. Last minute request and made our stressful situation effortless. Cant wait for the pups to go back and spend time at her beautiful house and property!”
“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.”
“Lorraine and her family are awesome! She updated me with pictures and videos throughout my pup’s stay and I felt he was in a very safe and happy environment. We will definitely be working with Lorraine again!”
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.
“SO great! I was in town unexpectedly for a funeral and Samantha immediately accepted my last minute booking. My pup “Holly” has separation anxiety, so I was a little worried about how things would go, but Samantha and her husband had her calm and rolling over for belly rubs in a flash. She sent lots of photos and text updates to reassure me that things were going well. If I lived here I would use Samantha all the time. I cannot more highly recommend!!”
“Our dog had a great stay with Lisa! It was so nice to be able to leave him with someone with a lot of dog experience and clearly a lot of love for dogs. Our dog got along great with her dog. We would absolutely have him stay with Lisa again.”
“Ana Maria did a great job caring for my dog. She gave her extra attention, as my pup was having separation anxiety following a recent move. Ana has a calm nurturing way about her, and it's apparent she loves dogs. I will definitely use her services again!”
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. What to Expect When You Book With Me: Constant Companionship: As a working professional in the consulting industry who is fully remote, my flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent, reliable supervision. I ensure your pets receive lots of daytime companionship and are never left alone for more than 4-5 hours a day. Tailored Attention: Family and friends have always relied on me for meticulous care. I make it a priority to learn everything about your pet's routine, quirks, and needs to ensure they are happy and safe. Professional & Insured: As an established, fully independently insured pet care professional, I am always happy to discuss flexible care and scheduling arrangements that work best for your family. Reliability & Safety: I have my own reliable vehicle, allowing for complete flexibility with visits and peace of mind in the unlikely event of an emergency.

Please note: For house sitting, I currently accept booking requests a maximum of 3 months in advance. Thank you for understanding! I work fully remote from my home. For house sitting, I use your house as a homebase to make your pet feel comfortable and used to their normal routine. I am able to drop in, house sit, and walk your furry friend, feed and play with your dog or cat, and everything in between (and of course take many pictures!)

“Kristin was great with our dog, Riggs! She took him on lots of walks and sent a bunch of photos throughout the day. He came back absolutely exhausted 😂 We will definitely be using her services again for doggy day care!”
“Natali took such great care of our 11 month old puppy during his first overnight stay away from home. She was patient, communicative, and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Even though he was a little nervous from being in a new environment, she was incredibly understanding and attentive to his needs. We could tell he was well cared for and had a great time with Natali and Rocko. We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Jennifer was so excited to meet Ruby and she clearly loves animals. He had a great day with her and her 2 little doggies. She even had gifts to send home with him. Highly recommend and Ruby will be thrilled to see her again soon!”
About: I started taking care of dogs when my friends/family asked if I could help out. This all started because I love dogs and cats. Since then, I've cared for all breeds, sizes and personalities; from energetic pups to sweet seniors. I'm comfortable working with high energy dogs and quiet older dogs. I enjoy walking dogs and playing with them. I am extremely attentive to every dog's unique needs and your dog will be treated like family with me, if you give me the opportunity. My favorite part of pet sitting is getting to know each furry friend and making sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you're away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine, since I work from home most of the time. This allows me to give plenty of time and attention to your dog throughout the day, including a walk every few hours and exercise tailored to your dog's energy level. Whether your pup loves long walks or quick play breaks, I make sure their needs are met with lots of love and care. I currently work part time and have the flexibility to walk and care for your dog/dogs all day/night. What sets me apart from other people, is I really enjoy the different personalities of every dog I meet. I do my best to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I have a fenced in yard that's perfect for daily fun. At home, I can provide a crate for pups who enjoy having their own cozy safe space. I maintain a calm low traffic home, so your pet gets a consistent, stress free environment. Whatever your dog does at your house, I can replicate at my house. I will follow your rules for your dog. My goal is to create a fun, safe, and loving space where every pup is treated like my own.
About: I have been around animals my whole life. Dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, exc. I am a caring and loving mom to my 9 year old dog and my son. I will care for your pet as if it's my own. If anyone is interested to have their animals watches on weekends while they are away or during weekdays while at work or on vacation. I am around to keep your loved one company.

He is vaccinated and very friendly.
“Julie and her family have been taking amazing care of Luca a few days a week for me while I adjust to a new work schedule. They really love him and treat him like their own. I love seeing pictures from their outings and walks! Luca is always excited to see them when I drop him off! As a new puppy mom I was nervous to leave him with anyone but Julie and her family made me feel so at ease. Would 10/10 recommend their services!”

“Jonathan is a very thoughtful, caring and patient dog walker. Our dog struggles with separation anxiety and we were expecting that she would have a hard time adapting when one of us started working full time. But, Jonathan is making this transition so much easier by being very attentive to our dog’s needs and providing us with very useful information about how she is doing on their walks. We strongly recommend him.”
“Elizabeth was extremely professional and reliable. She instantly got along with Orfeu and the had a seamless set of walks together while I was out of town. I am so grateful we found her and would recommend her to anyone needing support with their pups!”

I’m also more than happy to keep you updated with plenty of pictures and updates so you know your baby is happy and doing well! And of course, I am ready to give your pet allll the love and attention they deserve while you are gone!
“Tawny was absolutely amazing. She stepped in on short notice during a family crisis. She was professional and went above and beyond managing my pup's anxiety, upset tummy, and return of some annoying puppy behaviors. She was punctual, had excellent communication, and is an absolute angel. Highly recommend!”
About: My name is Meryn DeSimone, I am 22 and recently graduated from Elon University. I've taken care of a variety of different of animals and truly love spending time with pets! I currently have a chinchilla, Frank and a leopard gecko, Sally. My parents have two dogs also, Kip and Hammy and I have grown up with having dogs and cats around so they are second nature to me. I consider myself to be an organized and dedicated person with a big heart for animals. I would be more than happy to assist with any local pet care needs. I have plenty of time in the afternoon after my classes and I would love to spend that time going on a walk or taking care of pets! I can walk the dogs for long enough to make sure they are tired, feed them, clean up after them and even give medications or special requests that the animals would need!
About: 30 years as a dog mom, 2 young school-aged kids + friendly puppy!! Dogs have been a part of my life for more than 30 years! I grew up with a dog from the time I was 4 until I was 20, so caring for dogs has always been second nature to me. At 28, I got my own dog, who was a beloved part of our family for nearly 13 years. Shortly after saying goodbye to her we welcomed Lola, our mini dachshund, into our family in May 2026, and she has brought so much fun and energy to our home. I’m very comfortable with the day-to-day care that comes with having a dog, including walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Our family includes two young school-aged children, so our home is loving, active, and full of attention. Lola loves having other dogs around, so we’re especially excited to welcome friendly, social dogs who enjoy playing and having a canine companion. We’re a great fit for dogs who enjoy being part of a family and having plenty of love, attention, and playtime! Your dog will be treated like part of the family while they’re with us! We take dogs out first thing in the morning, throughout the day as needed (typically at least every 3 hours), and again before bedtime. I am not currently working, so I’m around and available throughout the day. On weekends, we’re home most of the time with Lola and the kids, so there’s plenty of company, attention, and playtime. We enjoy getting outside for walks and, when appropriate, may visit a dog park or a dog-friendly beach when seasonally available. We’ll always consider your dog’s personality, comfort level, and energy when planning activities. Our goal is for every dog to feel safe, loved, and right at home! Our home is a dog-loving, family-friendly environment with a large yard on a quiet private road, surrounded by woods and backing up to the Hannah Trails. There’s plenty of space for dogs to explore, play, and get some energy out! We have one very friendly, playful puppy (Lola) who loves having other dogs around, plus two young school-aged kids who are always happy to provide extra attention, entertainment, and cuddles. We especially enjoy welcoming dogs who are comfortable around children and other dogs. Our puppy has free rein of the house when we’re home and is crate-trained when we leave. For guest dogs, we’re happy to use a crate when we’re away if that’s what they’re accustomed to. If your dog isn’t crate-trained, that’s completely fine—we’re happy to work with their routine and make sure they’re comfortable and safe while we’re out. At night, we’ll follow whatever routine your dog is used to. They can sleep in a crate, in a designated area, or even in bed with us (& Lola) if that’s their normal routine. Our goal is to keep your dog’s experience as comfortable and familiar as possible while they’re staying with us!

“I think Matthew for the two quick walks this week. It was so helpful and you took care of Luna and I appreciate your feedback and I appreciate you walking her. I will definitely ask you again to walk her. Thank you so much.”
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.
“Victoria was fantastic! She was super attentive to my pup and was so sweet to come meet her for the first time before I left for a trip! Would 100% trust her to take care of all my creatures in the future.”
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.
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and a bunch of other animals, and I have always loved taking care of them. My family, neighbors, and friends have all relied on me to take care of their pets over the years, whether it's for walks, check-ins, or overnights, and I would love to do the same for your pet. I'm a college student and have plenty of time during the week for quick check-ins and walks, and I will be able to stay overnight most weekdays and on weekends. I am very comfortable around dogs and would have no problem going on walks, crating your dog, administering most medicine, or doing any other tasks that may be required.
About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart and I am committed to providing every pet with the same love, care and attention that I would give my own. I have been working as a pet sitter for 6 years and worked with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities from bearded dragons and clingy cats to Chihuahuas and Newfoundlands. I also have experience administering medications like insulin, subcutaneous fluids and other medications during my stay. I understand the importance of following routines closely and ensuring that the pets and their parents are comfortable and stress-free. Additionally, I have volunteered at the shelter during college for a couple of months working with animals with different backgrounds and temperaments. As a cat mom of 3 I understand first hand how important it is to find a dependable, compassionate pet sitter you can trust whether it is companionship, a walk or playtime I will provide the best care I can for your animals. Currently I am working towards getting my second degree in nursing but I am still committed to providing reliable and attentive pet care and can work around my schedule whether it is waking up extra early for a morning walk or extra playtime when my school day is over. I can only pet sit at the clients house as I have pets of my own but their routine will still be followed including daily medications. I understand that this is a stressful time for both pet and owner so I focus on providing the best care I can give and will give regular updates for a stress free environment. Please note that I am only comfortable caring for indoor cats. For safety reasons, I do not allow outdoor cats outside while they are under my care and ask that they remain indoors during the duration of my visits or stay.
“Danielle took such great care of our dogs while we were away! She was very communicative, sent updates during every walk, and we received plenty of pictures. Thank you so much Danielle!”
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve fed them, walked them and help take care of them. I have walked dogs and pet sit for 5years. Animals are so relaxing and fun. I’m a stay at home mom so I have a lot of free time while my kids are at school. I can provide dog walking and/or pet sitting I can either have dogs at my place which has a fenced in yard or can do drop in visits. I unfortunately cant stay at anyones house due to having kids and a dog myself
About: I have my very own rescued golden retriever/hound mix named Goldfish. He’s taught me the importance of patience, slow introductions and the power of treats! I have experience working with large breeds, anxious dogs, reactive dogs and senior dogs with special needs. I’m also a runner so I’d be happy to take your high energy pups on a run! I have a flexible schedule since I work part time. I will be available to hang out with your pups most days of the week! I’m attune to dog body language and make sure to read their cues when approaching them. I’ll be sure that they’re secure when entering and exiting a home. When we’re on walks, I’ll make sure that they don’t get into things when they’re not supposed to and be cautious of other dogs and people.
About: Hello! We are Brielle & Liam a twin sibling cat sitting team! Your furry friend can benefit from 2 cat sitters for the price of ONE! About Brielle: I am a rising junior college student studying Animal & Veterinary Science. In high school I was a volunteer at Cape Ann Animal Aid working specifically as a Purr Pal providing care & socialization for cats, speaking with prospective adoptive families who visit, and cleaning & feeding duties in the cat room. I am certified in Cat & Dog First Aid by the American Red Cross and have experience with administering medication and working with cats with anxiety. I can also provide drop-in care for for other small animals such as small rodents and reptiles. Please reach out if you are in of need care for these other animals too! I am now available for dog walking. About Liam: I am a junior college student studying illustration. I am certified in Cat & Dog First Aid by the American Red Cross. I am working with my sister to help with drop-in cat care visits. We both love our two Siberian Forest Cats who we miss terribly when we are away at college! Depending on our schedules your cats may be visited by one or both of us together. Meet & Greets will be set up with clients based on who will be providing care in your home during your requested time so if we both will be available to care for your cat while you are away you will meet both of us. We will provide a cat care info sheet at our meet and greets for you to complete which helps us to care for your feline friend while you are away. Thank you for considering us to help care for your feline friends! As you can imagine sending two kids to college is a big expense! I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to offer 30 minute cat care visits to accommodate whatever time frame your cat may need for visits. Longer visits are also available. I am able to provide cat care services in a client's home provided we have had a "meet & greet" in advance of services being provided and your cat approves! I am unable to provide cat care services in my own home.
About: I started taking care of dogs when my friends/family asked if I could help out. This all started because I love dogs and cats. Since then, I've cared for all breeds, sizes and personalities; from energetic pups to sweet seniors. I'm comfortable working with high energy dogs and quiet older dogs. I enjoy walking dogs and playing with them. I am extremely attentive to every dog's unique needs and your dog will be treated like family with me, if you give me the opportunity. My favorite part of pet sitting is getting to know each furry friend and making sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you're away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine, since I work from home most of the time. This allows me to give plenty of time and attention to your dog throughout the day, including a walk every few hours and exercise tailored to your dog's energy level. Whether your pup loves long walks or quick play breaks, I make sure their needs are met with lots of love and care. I currently work part time and have the flexibility to walk and care for your dog/dogs all day/night. What sets me apart from other people, is I really enjoy the different personalities of every dog I meet. I do my best to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I have a fenced in yard that's perfect for daily fun. At home, I can provide a crate for pups who enjoy having their own cozy safe space. I maintain a calm low traffic home, so your pet gets a consistent, stress free environment. Whatever your dog does at your house, I can replicate at my house. I will follow your rules for your dog. My goal is to create a fun, safe, and loving space where every pup is treated like my own.

“Julia is fantastic with my dog! We are a multiple repeat customer, he always has the best time staying with her and is excited to get inside when I bring him for a stay. We will continue to use Julia again!!”
“I highly recommend Jodi. This was our first time leaving our puppy overnight. Jodi took such great care of Reese. She sent us multiple pictures and videos of her every day. Reese had so much fun playing with the other dogs in Jodi’s care. Overall a great experience!”
“Finn is the second dog we have boarded with Michael. He is still a puppy. He was very happy at Michael’s and kept all of his good habits that he has learned so far! Great home and family atmosphere, the best.”
“Natasha and Jon are amazing— we have a small dog who is a little apprehensive about people and has some separation anxiety but he did so well with them. The dogs were so well taken care of and they sent us tons of photos (I’m an anxious dog owner). You’ll be lucky if you keep your dogs with them :)”
“Bowser seems to have had a wonderful time with Rebecca and her family! The photo updates were great to share with our kiddos so they could see he was having a nice vacation too 😊”
“Lorraine was the best! Have left our Cooper with other doggie daycares but have never felt so strongly that he was in the best possible place. He surely was treated like a member of her family! Daily pictures and videos gave us the reassurance that we could relax celebrating our “50 th” Anniversary in Aruba!! Highly recommend Lorraine and her beautiful family!❤️❤️”
“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 amazing and my Mille had a wonderful time while I was away. He updated with photos and videos and let us know how she was doing, him and his family is great and if we ever need a sitter again, we will make sure to call David 😊”
“Brooke and her family took care of our pup like she was literally one of their own - they brought her along on many adventures and gave her all the love she could possibly want! We hope to have Willow stay with them many more times!”
About: I’ve always loved dogs and have cared for dogs of different ages and personalities throughout my life. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs who may need extra patience, attention, and gentle care. I’ll treat every dog like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. 🏠🐾 Home Boarding I offer a comfortable, loving home environment for dogs 55lbs and under, 1 year and older. I keep boarding small and personal, with a maximum of two dogs at a time, so each dog receives plenty of individual attention and care. I truly enjoy being around dogs and love giving them plenty of attention, companionship, and socialization. I’m happy to care for dogs who enjoy having other dogs around, as well as dogs who are more comfortable being the only dog in my care. Every dog has their own personality and comfort level, and I’m happy to tailor their stay to their individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I have a large fenced in yard for your dog to run around. I also have a stroller for dogs who prefer more of a pampered ride around town than a leash walk. Before accepting a new boarding dog, I prefer to have a Meet & Greet so we can make sure your dog is comfortable in my home and that we’re a good fit. If an in-person meeting isn’t convenient, I’m also happy to arrange a Zoom/video call first. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away. ❤️ I’m am very reliable and available for pet care on my days off, including Mondays,Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays . I can also open additional days on my calendar when I’m available. I enjoy spending time with dogs and giving them the love, attention, exercise, and companionship they need. For drop-in visits, I provide care in your home and follow your instructions carefully. I’ll make sure your dog is safe and comfortable, keep doors and gates secure, and provide plenty of attention and companionship. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home.
“Freddi took outstanding care of Penny!!! She has an idyllic setup for hosting and provided Penny a cozy and comfortable stay while we were out of town. We loved the photos Freddi sent every day - Penny was clearly right at home! Would definitely book again.”
“Zwany and Leandro always outdo themselves! They take great care of our dog! This time they watched our cat, too! Sometimes I worry that my pets love Zwany more than me!!! The pick up/drop off feature is incredible as well. 10/10!!”
“Chanel was an amazing host for our senior Shih Tsu, Kody. She made Kody feel right at home. She’s a natural caregiver, but also followed all the instructions and care tips we provided (morning meds, feeding, walks, etc.). Chanel was super communicative and made sure that we were updated during Kody’s stay. What a relief for us! (Thank you, Chanel. We’ll be back).”
“Joseph and his family were great sitters. They took care of our boy like he was their own. Their home and outdoor space is safe and spacious for dogs to get plenty of exercise. They were also very accommodating when we had a change in travel plans. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again as a sitter.”
“Such a phenomenal first experience with Caty! Will definitely be booking with her again. She was super communicative and helpful. She would send me pictures and videos of Honey Bee everyday while on my vacation with small updates which i loved, it helped me feel close to her while i was far away. She treated my dog like her own and im so greatful for her care of my dog! Honey Bee also loved her and felt right at home with Caty and her family.”
“Our minidoodle Sam had a great stay with Charlotte and Jordan, and their dog Kyber. Two things we especially like: They generally just take one dog at a time (more attention, and Sam loves attention!), and they live near some great walking trails. Very nice people.”
“Ozzi had such a great time with Yang and her family. They welcomed him into their home and took great care of him. We received photos and videos every day to keep us updated, which was very appreciated. He will definitely go back on our next time away!”
