“Great experience! I came back from being 4 days away and my kitten was calm and happy. I recommend Tanya as a petsitter. Tanya was always on time and kept posted about every little detail with lots of pictures and videos.”

“As a recent transplant from Washington State to Massachusetts, Annmarie quickly turned my biggest concern about relocating into my biggest relief! From our initial video chat while I was in Washington and our meet-and-greet in Massachusetts, I knew she was the perfect person to help me with boarding and mid-day breaks for my little pup! Annmarie has taken care of my dog several times now, and each time, she continues to impress me with her genuine love for animals and her eagerness to ease my worries while I’m away at work or traveling. She’s excellent at communicating, always punctual, and my dog absolutely adores her and looks forward to spending time with her. In addition to providing great care for my dog, she went above and beyond. She gave me the best recommendations for walking trails, a veterinarian, and even shared must-eat and explore spots in my new town. Book with Annmarie! You’ll be so glad you did!!”

“My cats are typically shy and don't like my friends or extended family, but somehow they absolutely adore Charlene. When I get home from vacation, they still wait at the door for Charlene because they want her to visit them all the time!”

“Eli took great care of our cat, Izzie and our home while we were away for a week. She made sure Izzie had plenty of play time, pets and treats! Eli is very communicative, sent detailed updates and pictures each day, and even provided extra help keeping the house tidy and watering plants. It was such a relief to have her there, and we came home to a very happy cat! Would absolutely recommend - thank you Eli!”

“Caroline did a fantastic job of caring for my two cats while I was away for the weekend! She played extensively with them so that they didn’t get lonely and gave detailed updates on how they were adjusting to my absence”

“Jennifer did an amazing job looking after my fuzzy pal while I was away on vacation for two weeks. She followed my instructions to the letter and took excellent care of my cat. Highly recommended.”

“Nina is hands down great!! We were nervous to leave our kittens for a week and she couldn’t have made the process easier! She did an amazing job keeping us updated and sending adorable photos and videos! Couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Josh did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats! He gave us picture updates and was in prompt touch when one of our kitties puked during one of his visits. Thank you for being a great pet-sitter!”

“Yuzhou was great! She was very attentive and sent lots of photos throughout the stay. Luna is usually shy with sitters, but she warmed up to her right away — a rare sign of trust. We also came home to a sweet handwritten card. Truly grateful, and I’d definitely book her again!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. My cat journey began at 15, and today I’m the proud cat mom of DunDun and Nomi—two rescues I adopted and nurtured from shy, withdrawn kitties into affectionate, confident companions. I’m experienced in administering oral and topical medications, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure every cat feels safe, loved, and understood. My dog care experience started with my own family pup, whom I’ve cared for and trained since he was a playful puppy. I’ve also looked after friends’ dogs of all sizes and personalities, from tiny lap dogs to large, energetic companions. I’m confident in giving medications, providing light grooming such as nail trimming and ear cleaning, and ensuring every pup gets the right balance of exercise, affection, and care. Whether it’s cats or dogs, I treat every pet like my own, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. As a dedicated student who spends the majority of time at home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent and reliable pet care throughout the week. I’m available Monday through Sunday to accommodate your needs, whether it’s drop-in visits to check on your cats or dogs, regular dog walking sessions, or extended house sitting stays for your furry family members. I understand that pets need love and attention every day, which is why I’m committed to being there whenever you need me — whether it’s during busy weekdays, relaxing weekends, vacations, or long holiday breaks. My goal is to offer peace of mind to pet owners by ensuring their pets receive personalized care and companionship, no matter the time or day. No matter the size of your dog or the temperament of your cat, I’m ready and eager to help. When you can’t be there, I will be — providing trustworthy, loving care tailored to your pet’s unique needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment for your furry friends. I follow your specific care instructions closely—whether that involves feeding schedules, administering medications (oral or topical), cleaning litter boxes, or providing exercise and playtime. I make sure to maintain your pet’s daily routine as much as possible to reduce stress and keep them happy. I also keep the home secure and tidy, ensuring all doors and windows are locked and that your pets have access to fresh water and a clean space. Most importantly, I spend quality time bonding with your pets through gentle attention and affection, so they feel loved and cared for even when you’re away.
“Frances was great and flexible! She took great care of my cat and was very responsive to all of my requests of getting more photos, leaving notes, pick up/drop off keys etc. I would recommend her to take care of any of your furry friends!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages for over 10 years. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every pup like my own with lots of love guaranteed! I work Monday-Thursday from 7am-6pm at my full time job but my weekends and holidays are usually free! I can provide weekend check ins, walks, or in home care. I have watched my coworkers’ and friends’ pets multiple times at their homes while they are away. I make sure to spend adequate time with each animal I’m watching. I usually do a morning, afternoon, and evening visit which includes multiple walks, feeding, and enrichment with treats. Depending on the dogs age, I can take them out on longer or shorter walks. I follow instructions for administering food and medications and can provide a safe environment. I have worked with animals at a wildlife sanctuary in the past and know how to provide a calm demeanor to stressful situations.

Nina was great with our cat, Buoy, and always made sure to give us updates during her visits. We had so much peace of mind while we were away for a holiday for a few days that he was well taken care of. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for someone to drop-in and keep an eye on their furry family members.

Yuzhou was great! She was very attentive and sent lots of photos throughout the stay. Luna is usually shy with sitters, but she warmed up to her right away — a rare sign of trust. We also came home to a sweet handwritten card. Truly grateful, and I’d definitely book her again!

10 stars if possible. Jamie jumped in to help when I had a last minute emergency. She was great with my animals and communicating. I stopped worrying after Jamie’s first visit and report as it was clear that the animals were in capable and loving hands. Will ask (beg) her to look after my pets in a heartbeat

Allison is a wonderful, thoughtful pet sitter and an excellent communicator. She consistently stopped in to feed our kitty Harold and spent time giving him lots of pets and snuggles. She sent helpful reports of how much he ate and let us know if anything seemed out of place. We always know our pets are well cared for with Allison and highly recommend her services!
