“Stephanie was amazing with my sweet cat Sushi. She went above and beyond to meet my kittys needs and provided me with amazing photos of my boy. Thank you so much Stephanie! Sushi and I will miss you.”
“Alyson was amazing - I loved getting a blurb about how my two cats were doing, along with some wonderful pictures! My two cats warmed up to Alyson very quickly - a testament to her authenticity as one can be very skittish. We will definitely use Alyson in the future for any pet sitting needs!”
“Shannon was fantastic. She was punctual and easy to stay in touch with. She got along great with our kitty. For drop in visits, she played with our cat, fed our cat, cleaned the litterbox, and vacuumed the area outside the litterbox. We are glad to have found her to check in our kitty while we are away. We will definitely be contacting her again for future visits. Highly recommend!”
“Julia was super communicative and thoughtful when looking after Hobbes! She was able to administer his daily pill orally as well as give him some good pets and love. She always left super detailed feedback. Would definitely recommend and rebook!”
“Perfect just as expected! Flawless work, and Koshka and us are very grateful for Kathleen’s punctuality, responsibility, care and going an extra mile with no questions asked. Very much appreciated.”
“Yana was fantastic and a great help. She took notes on how to best care for our fur babies and made sure they were happy and healthy. Her care gave us such peace of mind!”
“Thu was our pet sitter for a weekend. She was very punctual (arrived exactly on time for all sessions), followed all the instructions and we were very happy with her! She was also able to give our cat the oral pill and gave us updates everytime she went to visit. Would highly recommend her services :)”
“Carol took great care of my senior cat and helped us feel more comfortable with leaving him. She gave him his wet food daily to keep up his regular routine and sent us daily updates and pictures. She took an earful from him everyday, but I appreciate her dedication so he could stay home in his environment rather than being boarded. Thanks, Carol!”
About: I've helped care for my previous roommate's 60 lb dog for 6 years while living together. This included letting him outside, taking him on walks, feeding him, and giving him medication when needed. I've also watched and cared for several other friends' dogs and cats while they were away. I'm currently working part-time and will have most of the summer off, so my schedule is relatively flexible at the moment. Happy to chat more about it! I will respect and oblige by any rules or boundaries set forth for your pets and within your home. Happy to accommodate and meet you where you're at!
“Thank you so much for looking after Binx while we were away! We appreciate your communication, care, and attention given to our little one, especially when his separation anxiety kicked in.”
“Anna was absolutely wonderful in taking care of our two kitties. She also was kind enough to bring in any packages on our porch. I really appreciated the photos and updates along the way. We'll definitely turn to Anna for our future trips :) Thank you so much!!!”
“Rilee is great with our dog Samson. I could tell when meeting her she had a lot of experience and a great attitude. She's awesome at communicating and sending pictures, and we can tell Samson always has a great time with her.”
About: Hi I’m Megan! I just moved to Boston, I studied animal science at the University of Vermont so I absolutely love spending time with pets and I know a lot about animal needs! I have experience with a variety of animals as I have owned dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, Guinea pigs, cows, chickens, and more! I interned at a vets office and I also worked with sled dogs (Siberian huskies) throughout college and did all of the care for them including feeding, picking up poop, bathing, and tons of handling. I have experience raising puppies and caring for senior dogs, and love both. Specifics for what you want for your pet are always appreciated! I work at a pre-school so I am gone Monday-Friday from about 8am-3pm, so any dog staying with me during the week would have to be comfortable staying home during the day. I love to be active and go for walks and having a dog with me makes it so much more enjoyable! Whenever I have a pet they become my best friend for the time we spend together and I take their care very seriously. I live in an area of Boston that is very dog friendly with lots of walking trails nearby! I have gained a lot of experience through dog sitting and will always listen to your needs and expectations for how you want your pet to be cared for. I know how much love we all have for our pets so I make sure they feel loved while you’re away, and will keep you updated with lots of pictures and videos!
“Royce did such a great job with my kitty. She was very accommodating on the meet and greet. She also made sure to send photos and give him lots of attention during her drop in. Thank you!”
“Ilana was an amazing cat sitter to our two cats. One of them required medical attention unexpectedly and she was so supportive and communicated with us every step of the way. She went above and beyond, even gathering extra supplies as the cats needs changed. Our family was so grateful that we had such great cat care while we were traveling internationally.”
“Cat boarding: Tiffany took good care of my 4-month old kitty, she was very responsive, and sent pictures almost every day, which I appreciated. I recommend her and would ask her to look after my cat again in the future.”

“I can’t say enough positive things about Jess. We have a reactive dog, Harper, who is slow to warm up, and Jess treated her with patience and compassion. Now Harper jumps up on her when she sees Jess because she loves her so much. She will love your babies like they’re her own. She’s incredibly responsible, responsive, and a gentle soul.”

Also, she plays with the dogs to get their energy out. She gives me a peace of mind knowing my animals are cared for just the way that I would if i were there. I couldn’t recommend Megan enough, her love for animals shows through the care she puts in.”
