“Maggie did an awesome job of taking caring of my dog when I was out of town. She was very patient with my anxious pup and took the time to let my dog slowly warm up to her. I felt great leaving town knowing my dog was being well taken care of.”

“Highly recommend! Elizabeth took excellent care of my dog Gretel and my home. She went above and beyond making sure everything was just as I left it, if not better. She was prompt with communications and checked in regularly while I was away with updates and pictures. She was great with details and even offered to let Gretel out again if I was running late on my return. I would definitely ask Elizabeth to dog/house sit again! Thank you!”

“We had a great experience with Lori house sitting our American Bully & Pit mix. Lori asked questions ahead of time, reviewed our instructions, and sent us text and photo updates. We couldn't have asked for anything more. We really appreciated all of her communication.”
“Kendra was wonderful with Zannah. She was very patient with allowing her to feel comfortable to come to her when she was ready. My dog is quite timid and anxious with someone new caring for her. Kendra is also a strong supporter of raw feeding which was very reassuring as this is how my dog is fed. She is also well versed in dog behavior and body language and Zannah was VERY comfortable next to her. Thank you Kendra, I’ll be rebooking with her very soon.”
“Yes, yes, Karen took great care of our pet, Cinder, and our home while she was here. Easy communicator, responsible, and kind. I am so glad to have found Karen and look forward to calling on her again!”

About: Experienced pet-sitter with a widely flexible schedule available for any needs you may have for your pet! On top of pet-sitting and day trip/walking experience I have experience as an assistant groomer from working for The Green Groomer in Northampton, MA which you are welcome to get in touch with as a reference. I also worked at a Dog Daycare in the Boston area before moving to Western MA, where I was involved with many responsibilities surrounding the pups including providing their meals, pick-ups/drop-offs, de-escalation of conflict, and general moderation of behavior. Working in this field has granted me the opportunity to work with dogs of all temperaments, ages, and sizes and has taught me how to interact with pups from all walks of life. On top of that I have experience with bathing, nails, and ear cleanings from my time at the Green Groomer. My schedule is extremely flexible, with open availability during the week before 3PM, making check-ins during the work day hassle free, and my shift never getting out later than 10:30PM, so overnight boardings are still not a problem during my work week. I also have Friday-Sundays off so long weekend boardings are always an option. Please let me know in advance of any house rules for your pup (i.e furniture rules, dietary restrictions, routine scheduling) and I will be sure to follow them with the same consistency you would. In regards to boarding with me they would be boarded in a pet-free, smoke-free, child-free condo with a large unfenced yard in the back for leashed outings when needed!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life, dogs are more than just pets they are a big part of our families. I treat every animal like it is my own. I am currently working until about 2pm during the week, but I am able to pivot my schedules if needed with a four day notice. I can take care of pets in the clients home. I can walk, bathe, give medication if needed. I will treat their home like it’s my own and ensure your animal is comfo And loved!
“Colin was amazing and took very good care of our dogs over a weekend while we were out of town. He was very detailed in capturing all the information about our dogs during his first visit before we left. He captured thorough notes and asked lots of questions while getting to know the dogs and took the time to meet them and walk them multiple times before we left. While we were gone, he kept us updated every day, even if it was just a "they are doing great" text and a picture. Colin is very responsive and we will definitely be asking him to watch our dogs again!”


About: Ive been caring for pets for many years. I had a dog walking business over a decade ago. We taken care of our own and others elderly dogs. We like taking dogs on long off leash walks in groups if possible. Dogs are always welcome to cuddle up on the furniture. Im a stay at home-mom, homeschooling. We go to play groups and trips but we can plan our day around dog walks. We take the dogs out first thing in the morning on leash as our yard isnt fenced.

“Elias did a wonderful job with Birdy. We are so happy to have found Elias. The house was neat as a pin. Birdy was well cared for. She had an immediate connection with Elias.”


About: I’ve had pets since I was about 4 years old, and am experienced with caring for cats and dogs. Any needs they have, I will take care of them all - from simple company when you're at work, to walks, giving meds and overnight stays! I have experience training puppies too, from potty training to the classic "stay", "sit", "come", "leave" etc. commands. I have a large dog myself so size of your pet is no issue. Anything you're unsure about, shoot me a message! I work full time at a school but am free weekdays after 2pm until around 10pm. On weekends I am free from Friday afternoon until Monday morning so I can do overnight stays too if needed. Depending on the care required, I will feed pets, give them meds, take them outside, play games/fetch/etc., brush them, empty litter boxes and so on. I have had several cats and dogs of my own and cared for many more, so I am comfortable with adjusting to their different personality types.

About: I've grown up with & taken care of cats and small-to-medium sized dogs, even adopting & caring for one while living abroad, and would love to get to know yours! I'm a teacher who lifeguards over the summer, so any schedule is fine. Morning , midday, and evening attention / care is what I'm here for. Whatever instructions you give will be followed to the letter. Outside of that, I've always been a big animal person so if your pet is with me, I treat them as my own.
“Amanda was super prompt and responsive while we were out of town! She stayed at our home with our clingy border collie and gave great updates and pictures - they got out and about as much as possible during a heatwave but had plenty of snuggles and scritches inside in the AC. She left the house in perfect order. We would love to have her stay again in the future!”
“What a dear person. Nadine is a natural with knowledge and a love of animals. She showed great judgement, and was kind enough to let me know when our cat was in for the night. She was thoughtful, and clearly is great with animals. Our cat was thoroughly in love.”
“Grace was fantastic! She was warm, bubbly, and instantly connected with our dogs—they were snuggling with her before we even left the garage. She was incredibly flexible and kept us updated with pictures throughout the stay. She gave us so much peace of mind, especially with our 14-year-old senior dog. We’d love to have her back anytime!”

Kendra was a gem to have take care of our pets. She is a kind and caring person who truly understands the animals. She has a background in animal behavior and immediately understood how to give the time needed for our nervous dog to settle down and become comfortable with her presence. Kendra asked numerous questions regarding the pet's needs and personality. While we were away, she sent lots of photos to keep us up to date on the home front.
