Personalized care for your dog or cat - Boston

“What an amazing dog care experience with Karma and her family! From the moment I met them, I felt relieved and confident that Ginger and my JRT/Shepherd Mix puppy, Bhageera, would be in safe hands. I was already confident about Ginger, since he is calm and composed. But Bhageera is very energetic and, as a puppy and a working dog, he needs more than just a sitter. Karma and her family completely understood his needs and provided the perfect care while we were on our trip to Isle Royale. Since Isle Royale National Park does not allow pets, we had to find a pet sitter — and we were so lucky we did. As an added bonus, John, Karma’s husband, owns and operates the Isle Royale Queen ferry. What an amazing coincidence and what a wonderful family! Their Aussie Doodle, Max, became Bhageera’s buddy and gave him the stimulation and play he needed. Meanwhile, Ginger was able to relax in a quieter environment. Karma’s kids also helped care for the puppy and made him feel comfortable and loved. Overall, I am beyond happy. This was the perfect combination for our furry family, and we are so grateful for the care they provided while we crossed Lake Superior. We frequently visit the Keweenaw area during the summer and fall, and we will surely be seeking their help during our next visit. I would recommend Karma 100%.”

“Jaylynn and Benjamin were absolutely amazing with our dog! They made him feel like part of the family and he was a happy happy boy playing with their golden retriever and other puppy they were dog sitting for! Their communication was excellent and we really enjoyed getting updates and pics. I will definitely be using their services again in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbor’s cat every winter from December to March since he was young. I stay with him as long as I can every day — doing my homework with him in my lap, taking naps with him curled up by my feet, and eating dinner while watching him pace at my plate. I love cats so much, so I do my best to make them feel loved and cared for while their parents are away.

“Amber did a wonderful job. She was very conscientious. I would highly recommend her and plan on using her again.”

Sheryl M.

“Sierra did a great job of taking care of my senior kitties and she left my home in great shape. She was an excellent communicator and would love to have her care for my pets again.”

Chelsea W.

“Samantha was amazing! Not only is she a sweet person but she kept my anxious attached dog calm while I was out! Very flexible and accommodating when plans changed a bit! Will definitely use her again when we come to the area!”

Melanie D.

“We think Kat did a wonderful job with drop-in visits for our two cats! They are shy but everything worked out fine for all. Kat also kept my plants watered and let us know of any situations with the house since we were gone for a longer period period of time. we really appreciate her going the extra mile for us!”

Gail D.

“Suz is always so good with my three cats. They love her and she treats them like her own. She always goes the extra mile. I am so grateful for her help!”

Kimberly G.

“She was really good with my cranky old man cat. I knew he would take a while to warm up to her and she followed my advice. If I ever go on a long vacation again, would definitely hire again.”

Alexandra W.

“Evah was very dependable and the cats seemed to love her. Their disposition when we returned from our trip was very calm. Evah shared photos daily of them both playing and interacting.”

Sonja L.

“She did a great job!”

John G.

“Whitney was super punctual, and amazing with my dog. I knew he was in good hands when she would stop in to let him out.”

Maria R.

“Karina did a wonderful job checking in on my cat while I was away on vacation. She took care of all my cats needs, was responsive, and sent detailed reports. Would highly recommend.”

Marl C.

“Ashley is amazing! We have a new GSD puppy who’s 10 weeks old, she’s exactly what you expect, full of energy and biting. Ashley watches Bean twice a week while me and my fiancé are at work and unable to be home with her. She does a great job at sending us photos, videos, and keeping us informed on how Bean is doing. We feel great about leaving Bean with her, she really gives us peace of mind that Bean is not only safe but having fun too. P.S. We were the cancelled booking, we booked Ashely the night before the date Bean would’ve been with her and Ashely was more than willing to take Bean for the day on such short notice! Unfortunately she got sick, which happens to the best of us 😅”

“Karma's family has been caring for my terrier mix, Ruby while I'm at work. Ruby's tail is wagging when we arrive and she comes home happy and tired. Very good care, beautiful property and friendly dog, too!”

Anneliese S.

“Thank you for taking such great care of Cooper & Mo! I was thrilled that they settled in so quickly and hung out with your crew. It was great peace of mind to know they were in loving care all day.”

Kimberly K.

“Erica was great!! She took great care of my boy! She was also very responsive to me whenever I had questions.”

Michelle S.

“Thank goodness. Jenna is great with Gobby. I know everything will be ok while I'm gone.”

“We were in Houghton to visit Isle Royale. The issue was we were traveling in our RV with our 3-year-old Labrador and we didn't want to leave him alone for such a long day. We were lucky enough to find Rylie and I really can't say enough good things about her. She came over three times throughout the day to let our dog out, walk him, and spent time with him. Each time she sent us several new pictures and communicated wonderfully throughout the day. She allowed us to enjoy the day and not have to stress over our dog being watched and taking care of. If we're ever back in Houghton we will definitely use Rylie again!”

About: My Family and I have had dogs in the family for years and I have always had a big role in taking care of them from baths to playtime and food. In 2020 we then started raising puppies. I have helped from the birthing to medication and playtime, overcoming new obstacles and fears, and potty training. I have dog sat a bit and have done well making sure they got exercise, food, and medication. I do not have much experience with watching cats but love playing with my Aunt's who breeds and raises kittens. I currently go to college classes but have a fairly flexible schedule. In the summer aside from a few trips I have nothing going on! I feed them twice a day unless specified, give baths once every other week and as needed. If they don't seem to be enjoying an activity changing it or making the situation better. Trust and respect are very important. The wishes of the owners or parents will be followed and hope to give your pet the best care while you are away

About: I have owned dogs my whole life and more recently cats. I have experience with multiple breeds of dogs, both rescue and bread dogs, and different types of harnesses. I have been dog sitting and walking for six years now for varying amounts of time. I am a college student so my schedule is dependent on my classes and my on-campus job, but I can make my schedule fit around any pet care! needs. I have two dogs of my own so I would be coming to the client's house to care for their pet. For specific rules and training, I would discuss a plan with the owners as to be consistent.

“Erica does an amazing job, always sends a pic from the walk and lets me know hhow my dog did. Super appreciative of her flexibility with a last- minute request!!”
