“Judy and Rosie are awesome! Our Nala had the best time with Judy, Rosie and her family! Judy sent us pictures and updates gave our Nala plenty of walks, outside run time, and family love! So grateful not to worry about our pup while we were away. We would definitely book with Judy again!”
“I was very nervous having to board my two pups rather emergently. Best thing to have ever happened to me was finding this angel. She sent me a frequent updates as well as pictures. Couldn’t have asked for a better family to take care of my best buds. I am 1000% grateful and will continue to use Jessica in the future.”
“Yingying and her family went above and beyond for my two senior and medically complex Dogs. She made sure they took their medication, ate well and made sure they were 100% comfortable. I have never left my Dogs in boarding before but Yingying made sure to update me daily and carefully followed the instructions I left her. I highly recommend her and I wouldn’t board my Dogs anywhere else. I am extremely grateful to have found her.”
“Was very communicative and great with my dog. Took blue on multiple runs and hour long walks, which really helps her when she’s feeling anxious away from home. Would definitely recommend.”
“This is my Kona’s first boarding. Adriana and her family took care of Kona very well. Kona looks happy every moment. Also I appreciate Adriana shared many photos and video during the stay. I could know how Kona was doing timely.”
“Angelina went above and beyond every single day, sending me regular updates, photos, and little notes that made me smile and reassured us that everything was going smoothly. Coming home, I could tell my dog had been not only well taken care of but genuinely loved. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust. Thank you, Angelina!”
About: I've owned and cared for animals since high school. In addition to dogs and cats, I've owned horses since I was 16. I have been\am a foster parent for the Animal Rescue League of Boston since 2020. I'm a former puppy foster for service dogs and participated with early puppy training. I have carried those skills over to training other foster puppies and my personal dog. I have a medical background (EMT) and my daughter is a Vet Tech so I am very comfortable working with animals with medical needs and will follow any required medical plan. In addition to dogs and cats, I'd love to meet\care for your backyard farm animals; horses, pot-bellied pigs, chickens, goats, sheep, etc. I have experience with some of these animals through ownership and fostering opportunities. I'm open to meeting and learning about new friends. We currently have 4 dogs, 4 cats, and 2 horses in our home. All our animals are our babies and I'll care for yours as if they were my own. I'm currently working 6:30am-12pm, M-F. I'm available for drop-in visits any day of the week, after 1pm and on the weekends. I can house sit during the week as long as your pet doesn't mind an early morning! 🙂. Boarding in my home is restricted to cats or other small animals. Puppies (under 1 year) may be accomodated, no adult dogs. For cats; we have a dedicated "cat room" to keep your pet separated from our pets. The room has a screen door so they don't feel locked away and can be part of our household while remaining safe. I will follow your pet care plan while in your home. For Puppies; all dogs are fed separately to avoid food aggression situations. All puppies will be crated for meals and sleeping overnight. If your puppy is not crate trained, I will work with them to ensure they are comfortable and not afraid. I can support your potty training schedule to maintain consistency.
“We had such a great experience leaving our little Luna with Jacob and Willie (his friendly dog!). Jacob was super communicative with little reassuring updates and made sure to provide a cozy and comfortable space for her to stay while we were on vacation. Were really grateful for the experience and would absolutely recommend him to anyone who’s looking for someone to care for their pup!”
“Bojack loved staying with Kourtney! He is a fourteen years old. I like that Kourtney has a background in veterinary medicine. Not only did that make me trust her with his daily meds, it was nice knowing that there was a trained eye on him. Bojack is overly bonded to me to the point that he often sits by the window waiting for me to return when I go out. The biggest compliment to Kourtney's care is that when we picked him up, he greeted me with enthusiasm but not anywhere near the crazy welcome I usually get, AND he kept looking back at Kourtney as if he was unsure whether he wanted to leave! We will definitely have her watch him again.”
“Ashton and his wife took excellent care of my dogs while I was away. They were kind, reliable, and made me feel comfortable knowing my dogs were in good hands. My dogs came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. The pickup and drop-off process was smooth and easy, and I could tell they genuinely cared about my pets. I will definitely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet sitters!”
“Susan was an amazing caregiver to my dog while I was away. I was out of the country for 5 weeks which is s long time to be away from my boy!!! I felt completely secure and comfortable leaving Theo with Susan. I never worried and truly appreciated the pictures she sent and posted on FB as well. I highly recommend Susan and will definitely use her again when I have to leave my pooch in someone else's care!!”
“Alison was responsive and thoughtful. She agreed to sit our utterly over-exuberant 14-month-old black Lab and we were so concerned that Alison’s family would be overwhelmed. Instead, she sent encouraging notes and exercised our dog extensively, so that she returned home relaxed. We really could not have asked for a better situation. Great people, a terrific fenced back yard, and good communication. Hard to beat that.”
“Have used Emily once again and couldn’t be more happy with her updates and photos of Forest while I was traveling. Highly recommend her services if you need any kind of pet sitting.”
“Tilly seemed to enjoy her overnight stay and interacted well with Alexandra’s dog. There was excellent communication between us with several great status photos provided. Will certainly use her services again!”
“My dog loves staying with Rebeca and her family! They were able to accommodate a last minute change to the drop off time. I can tell my dog is treated like part of the family and receives great care! We look forward to booking with her again”
“Jing and her family treated Lola like one of their own. She kept me up to date with daily photos and messages and I felt much reassurance that Lola was as comfortable as possible. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Absolute best sitter I've left my GSD with. Hoping to book again soon so he gets more socialization with their pup. Kalani was very accommodating and understanding of my last minute request to book on a holiday weekend and my boys' anxiety that can look like aggression. Great communication and care. Would recommend her to anyone in a heart beat!”
“Our dog was in great hands for 4 days over the July 4th holiday weekend! Vanessa was very easy and flexible on drop off and pick up and sent plenty of pictures throughout the boarding time! Beautiful home and neighborhood for all dogs!”
“Go no further ! I’ve found THE caretaker for my Madeline. When Lucille got down on the floor to greet and introduce herself to Madeline, I knew she was the GOLD standard in “fur baby” caregiving. She went above and beyond the 3 page list of instructions I gave her. 🙄 I had complete confidence, trust and peace of mind knowing Madeline was about to be spoiled, she was included in her daily routines which included car rides and shopping all while observing for any stress. I actually will, without hesitation, be calling Lucille for future overnights. Her love of dogs is a true gift! GLK”

“Donna was very good with my cats as far as I can tell. She kept me updated on how my cats were doing, which can be hard since they are both shy and don’t usually come out for people.”
“So grateful for Lauren and the way she cares for our pup! She is very communicative, responsive, and has followed through perfectly with all the things I’ve asked! I’ll definitely be reaching out the next time we need a sitter! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“This is my third booking with Jason and I’m fortunate to have such a great pet care giver. Having 2 cats that require medication, one being diabetic, I can count in Jason to administer meds on schedule.”
“Kelly was great! My cat was well cared for during my absence. Kelly sent messages daily as well as photos, so I was able to enjoy my time away without worrying about my pet. I will definitely use her services again! Highly recommend!”

“Kyra was great! She was prompt, reliable, and took great care of my two dogs during their drop-in visit while I was working. I really appreciated knowing they were in good hands. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Eryn was incredibly kind and accommodating with my two spicy cats, stepping in on short notice and adjusting seamlessly when our return plans changed. She took wonderful care of them, and I highly recommend her to anyone needing a flexible, compassionate pet caregiver.”
“Colleen has been great with Kira for multiple visits. Kira has significant medical issues right now and Colleen has worked well around those issues. She is very easy to communicate with and gives good feedback from the visit.”
“I highly recommend Kayla G. My dogs are very spoiled and do not really like people who do not live in our house, but they love her. I have asked Kayla back a few times so I could go away on vacation and she was very communicative and took great care of them.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - West Groton
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“Our pup was very well taken care of, few hiccups along the way however they were very responsive, and she returned home every day just wiped out from blowing off all of her energy.”
About: My journey with animals did not start as a job. It began when I was 10 years old and welcomed my first cat into my life. Since then, animals have always been part of my world. I also grew up with a beloved Shih Tzu who was part of our family for 16 wonderful years and taught me what patient, devoted, long-term care truly looks like. Over the years, I have gained hands-on pet-sitting experience with many different animals and breeds, from energetic Golden Retrievers to Maine Coons, playful kittens, and small companion dogs. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, comfort level, and needs. I live with my husband in a two-floor apartment with hardwood floors and no carpets. I am happy to lift and carry pets on the stairs when needed, as long as they are comfortable being picked up. No matter the age, breed, or temperament, your pet will be treated with patience, attention, and care, just like part of the family. Pet care fits into my routine really easily because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give all the needed attention to your pet throughout the day. That means plenty of walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and just being around so they feel cared for and not left alone for too long. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and cats, keeping them active, entertained, and comfortable, and making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I live with my husband in a two-floor condo with its own backyard, and while it isn’t fenced, I’m very mindful of safety and always keep dogs secure when they're outside. The area around us has plenty of green space, which makes walks much more enjoyable and gives dogs lots of room to explore, sniff, and play.
“Our collie, Logan, and ourselves, too loved Kathryn and her big back yard. Her 2 dogs, Arlo and Smoky, were great hosts. Logan had a fun time and came home happy and content. We are looking forward to many more daycares and boarding soon.”
“Alison is great to work with! She was available when I needed someone to watch my dog on very short notice. This is the second time we’ve left our dog with Alison. She messages back quickly with updates and sends photos. She is very flexible with drop off and pick up times which is extremely helpful.”
“Kourtney was so incredibly kind and helpful with taking our Nellie girl last minute. She immediately made Nellie feel welcomed and safe, introduced her slowly to the other furry friends, and eased my worried heart by sending updates and photos regularly. We are so grateful to have found Kourtney and are looking forward to working with her again in the future!”
“Angelina was great! She accommodated a last-minute request and was extremely communicative and responsive throughout Tucker’s stay. Tucker is very anxious and I had complete confidence that he was well taken care of. I’d definitely recommend Angelina and will book with her again.”
“Tracy is wonderful. She is building a relationship with our dog, Riley. We hope to try an overnight booking soon. Tracy keeps Riley relaxed by letting him follow her around the house and by taking him for walks. Riley was excited to see Tracy this time, greeting her with his play bow. We are very happy that we found Tracy. She is just the right caregiver for Riley.”
“Normally, when we pick Yoda from a day care or boarding he will express his unhappiness by barking at us trying to tell us he didn’t like it there. But when we picked him up from your place he was all happy and no barks very calm, it tells us he had a good time with you. Thank you for taking good care of him.”

“Initially before my Scottie Dog’s daycare, we did a “Meet and Greet”, which gave Jack an opportunity to interact with Kavita’s dog, Toby. Toby was very welcoming to another dog to share his spacious fenced in backyard. The next day, I dropped off Jack, who was eager to meet his new dog friend, Toby. During the day, Kavita sent me a photo, and video of Jack’s outside activity. It was very reassuring to know that my pet was doing just fine interacting with the other dogs.”
About: Six years of cuddles, walks, and playtime have made me a true pet enthusiast! I know how much pets enrich our lives, and I'm eager to share that love with your furry friend. I'm experienced in providing engaging activities and creating a fun, safe environment for your pet to thrive. I work from home and can fit in schedules during the week. I have a unfixed, male Beagle, Leo - who is a sweetheart and is very calm and mingles well with to other dogs. He mostly loves to laze around once he's had his fill.

“My experience with Annabella from the start has been such a great experience. She is super kind, caring and loves and treats my dog Wyatt like her own. Wyatt stays with her on a weekly basis when I am away at work. My dog since day 1 has gravitated towards her and follows her around. She goes above and beyond with his care and is knowledgeable of dogs. Annabella is really easy to talk to and get along with. I know Wyatt is in great hands with her.

I treat every home with utmost respect and every dog as if they were my own. As a mom with a structured daily routine, pet care integrates seamlessly into my schedule. I focus on early morning and evening routines—ideal times for overnight house sitting, morning feedings, and evening walks or drop-in visits.

“I just met Matt this year and he has been such a great support ! I work really long hours and was hesitant about finding a dog sitter as my dog is really selective with men. From one meet and greet my dog was comfortable with Matt & was friendly right away! Matt has been consistent and is extremely reliable & follows instructions!

I’m definitely sticking with Mat as a dog sitter. 🫶🏼 thank you for being there for my sweet girl !”

From potty training, to obedience training and everything in between as a start to giving them their best lives! Through Fostering, I have learned how to connect with dogs on a different level. I would love to have the opportunity to walk, connect and take care of your animals as needed. I work part time and I have plenty of time to do drop ins or take your pups on a nice walk. Around the neighborhood or a few miles in the woods. What ever matches their energy. I treat every animal I care for like they are my own, keeping them safe and loved while they are in my care. ❤️ ❤️
“Brian has been great with Barney and our family. Barney is a particular type of dog that needs someone who understands his personality. This Brian has done. He also has been available on short notice and keep all his appointments and has been great at communicating his future availability. As well he is very pleasant to work with. Thanks Brian!”
About: I have been pet sitting for 10 years, I board and do in home visits, I sit for dogs, cats, small mammals, reptiles and even fish! I prioritize animals safety while also providing proper enrichment, walks, hikes, playdates, and play sessions. I am also a Certified veterinary technician. I currently work at a doggy daycare, on days off i'm with pets all day walking and playing. During work days I walk dogs before work and then get a 3 hour break in the middle of the day where I hike with dogs and cats. I have a fenced yard and a friendly cat and a friendly dog at home to keep your pets company. I find hiking trails and safe walking routes to take pets on fun adventures!
“We have been working with Blaise for a few weeks now, and we are so happy we found him! He is flexible, reliable, professional, affordable, and extremely punctual. He is highly communicative and easy to get ahold of. He is always flexible with any last minute changes, and he always arrives exactly when he says he will. We are so glad we found someone who we can trust so highly, and who our dog loves so much! Our dog is our baby and we know he is safe and happy with Blaise. If you are looking for a dog walker, look no further than Blaise!”

“Judy and Rosie are awesome! Our Nala had the best time with Judy, Rosie and her family! Judy sent us pictures and updates gave our Nala plenty of walks, outside run time, and family love! So grateful not to worry about our pup while we were away. We would definitely book with Judy again!”
“I was very nervous having to board my two pups rather emergently. Best thing to have ever happened to me was finding this angel. She sent me a frequent updates as well as pictures. Couldn’t have asked for a better family to take care of my best buds. I am 1000% grateful and will continue to use Jessica in the future.”
“Yingying and her family went above and beyond for my two senior and medically complex Dogs. She made sure they took their medication, ate well and made sure they were 100% comfortable. I have never left my Dogs in boarding before but Yingying made sure to update me daily and carefully followed the instructions I left her. I highly recommend her and I wouldn’t board my Dogs anywhere else. I am extremely grateful to have found her.”
“Was very communicative and great with my dog. Took blue on multiple runs and hour long walks, which really helps her when she’s feeling anxious away from home. Would definitely recommend.”
“Angelina went above and beyond every single day, sending me regular updates, photos, and little notes that made me smile and reassured us that everything was going smoothly. Coming home, I could tell my dog had been not only well taken care of but genuinely loved. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust. Thank you, Angelina!”
“Bojack loved staying with Kourtney! He is a fourteen years old. I like that Kourtney has a background in veterinary medicine. Not only did that make me trust her with his daily meds, it was nice knowing that there was a trained eye on him. Bojack is overly bonded to me to the point that he often sits by the window waiting for me to return when I go out. The biggest compliment to Kourtney's care is that when we picked him up, he greeted me with enthusiasm but not anywhere near the crazy welcome I usually get, AND he kept looking back at Kourtney as if he was unsure whether he wanted to leave! We will definitely have her watch him again.”
“Ashton and his wife took excellent care of my dogs while I was away. They were kind, reliable, and made me feel comfortable knowing my dogs were in good hands. My dogs came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. The pickup and drop-off process was smooth and easy, and I could tell they genuinely cared about my pets. I will definitely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet sitters!”
“Susan was an amazing caregiver to my dog while I was away. I was out of the country for 5 weeks which is s long time to be away from my boy!!! I felt completely secure and comfortable leaving Theo with Susan. I never worried and truly appreciated the pictures she sent and posted on FB as well. I highly recommend Susan and will definitely use her again when I have to leave my pooch in someone else's care!!”
“Have used Emily once again and couldn’t be more happy with her updates and photos of Forest while I was traveling. Highly recommend her services if you need any kind of pet sitting.”
“My dog loves staying with Rebeca and her family! They were able to accommodate a last minute change to the drop off time. I can tell my dog is treated like part of the family and receives great care! We look forward to booking with her again”
“Absolute best sitter I've left my GSD with. Hoping to book again soon so he gets more socialization with their pup. Kalani was very accommodating and understanding of my last minute request to book on a holiday weekend and my boys' anxiety that can look like aggression. Great communication and care. Would recommend her to anyone in a heart beat!”
“Our dog was in great hands for 4 days over the July 4th holiday weekend! Vanessa was very easy and flexible on drop off and pick up and sent plenty of pictures throughout the boarding time! Beautiful home and neighborhood for all dogs!”
“Go no further ! I’ve found THE caretaker for my Madeline. When Lucille got down on the floor to greet and introduce herself to Madeline, I knew she was the GOLD standard in “fur baby” caregiving. She went above and beyond the 3 page list of instructions I gave her. 🙄 I had complete confidence, trust and peace of mind knowing Madeline was about to be spoiled, she was included in her daily routines which included car rides and shopping all while observing for any stress. I actually will, without hesitation, be calling Lucille for future overnights. Her love of dogs is a true gift! GLK”
“Liza was amazing with our dog! He boarded at her house for a week while we were on vacation and she treated him like family! She sent pictures and updates everyday, and our dog loved playing in her fenced in yard. We will definitely book Liza again!”
“Excellent experience. Sara seemed professional, friendly, and very on top of things. She stayed in close touch about our little guy, and Kiwi seemed in good spirits both during his visit and after. I'd also specifically flag her location as a bonus—the house has a good yard and it's on a small, low-traffic side street, which always makes me feel better.”
“Francois was extremely communicative and took great care of our pup while we were traveling. He made me feel confident that she was well cared for and loved while we were gone. She returned home happy and healthy.”
“Yvonne and her family took amazing care of our 3-year-old golden retriever! She was very communicative throughout his stay, and sent lots of adorable pictures and videos. She took him outside for lots of play time and nice walks, which he loved. It was truly like he was part of their family for the weekend. We knew our dog was safe, happy, and loved during his time there! We had such peace of mind on our trip knowing he was in great hands. Thank you again!”
“Hugo & Julia provide consistent excellent care for our black lab, Beau. They are so easy to work with. It’s always a pleasure to make our reservation, drop off and pick up our dog, Beau.”
“Mary was great with Cookie! We felt comfortable in leaving her under Mary’s care and she sent updates to us to let us know how she was doing throughout the week. We will definitely use her again!”
“Gabriel was great!! He was able to accommodate our two dogs very last minute (since our return flights were cancelled and we needed a new sitter) and then again he was very flexible to continue looking after our dogs when our flights were rescheduled multiple days later by the airlines. We appreciated the great communication and our boys were tired when we picked them up which is not an easy feat for our Australian Cattle Dog puppy! he definitely gave them lots of exercise and attention. Would definitely recommend and will be keeping his contact handy!”
