About: Life-long dog owner and lover with experience pet sitting and walking! My dog has his trick title, and I would love to help your dog learn new things while I spend time with the little buddy. If your dog is friendly, I can even walk them together for some social time if you want! We have a lovely home with lots of toys and comfy places for your pup to hang out, crated or free roaming. I have been a foster dog parent and I have taken care of all types, from little springy poodles to plodding old beagles, to sleepy recovering collies. I have been a go-to pet sitter for friends for their large dogs, too. I swear if you ask me to I will read literal storybooks to your dogs. I will draw you mega cute portraits of your dog. I will take your dog on local adventures. Heck, I will talk to your dog about ethics if you want me to. I will try to train your dog do this trick: Me: "how's life?" Your dog: "ruff" There are infinite possibilities. Your dog and I will star in a montage where you're dog learns to play basketball. I'm so psyched to meet your dog right now. I’m reliable and I have a flexible schedule for the remainder of the summer. I spend most of the day at home, and when I’m stepping out your pup is encouraged to snuggle up on my bed. Some important requirements for dogs who stay at the house! -Dogs must be house trained -Dogs must either be happy in a crate, or trustworthy/non-destructive when not in a crate -Dogs must not show aggression towards other dogs or cats -Dogs must either be under 50 lbs OR dogs must be trained not to jump on people/put teeth on people, or pull uncontrollably on the leash I have a relaxed summer schedule and will spend much of my day with your dog! Dogs go out first thing in the am, get breakfast, have s longer walk in the afternoon, and go out before bed (please specify specific schedule needs if this doesn’t work for your little guy). Usually I incorporate some training during the evenings while we hang out at the house! Pets are generally fed morning and evening. Walks are provided periodically throughout the day. Play time happens a number of times a day, and dogs can play fetch in the yard!

“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my two pups! Annie was incredibly reliable, communicative, and clearly adored my dogs. She followed all instructions perfectly and even sent updates that gave me peace of mind while I was away. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups. Highly recommend!”


About: As a dog owner myself I understand how important it is to give your pet the care and love it deserves. This includes walks (with plenty of time for sniffing!), playing, pets, and appropriate training. As a dog walker I know how important proper handing is, and I will make sure that your pet is polite on leash to other dogs, people, and squirrels! I'm a graduate student with a flexible schedule. Most of the time I'm working from home which makes me able to leave whenever is necessary to make sure your dog gets out for their potty break or walk. When visiting a client's home I make sure that I do not leave any dirt or foot/ pawprints inside. I want to make sure that your home is as clean as you left it which means that my shoes will get taken off at the door and I'll make sure your dogs paws are not dirty when we get inside. Additionally, when leaving I'll make sure that your pet has enough water and/or food in their bowl.

About: I have over 10 years of experience with dogs. I am a current dog owner, I will ensure my time love and dedication with your fur baby!! I am currently working full time at a dermatology practice. I do have days where I can work from home and still take care of your pet. I do have a pretty flexible schedule throughout the week. I have a fenced yard and about 4 lots of space where your pet can play, I do have a friendly dog myself and her name is Luna, she will have lots of fun with your pup.


About: I understand the importance of trust and punctuality when leaving your pet in the care of others. I am committed to caring for your animals well, and communicating with you regularly. I have a large partially fenced yard with a dog run. My home is five minutes from the train station and has a large walkable park for the dogs to walk at. We have a lab/greyhound mix that loves making friends and two cats that can be cordoned off to their own space if needed. They are all very mild mannered and friendly with up to date immunizations and regular flea and heart worm medication. Ive been watching dogs in our home for since 2015 and walking them for longer. I do not take more than one family's animals at a time. My two daughters love to play with and spoil the animals. We do allow them on the couch but not on our bed. I have some experience caring for elderly or special needs dogs and will consider them on a case by case basis. I love the opportunity to meet and care for new animals while also supporting the people in my community. I work hybrid and have good flexibility to come home or work from home in order to care for our animals or take them for walks. Someone is home 80% of the time during the week. When we let animals out in our yard, they are chained on a lead while we stand out with them. During walks we make sure that animals do not get close to other people's animals. I understand the unpredictability that can come when mixing animals and I am sure to safeguard any animals in my care. We also ensure that we keep our home extra tidy during visits to prevent accidental ingestion of unwanted items.

“From the very first meeting, I knew my dog was in good hands. Sylvia showed up prepared, asked thoughtful questions, and even took notes to make sure she understood my dog’s routine and quirks. That level of care really stood out to me. Since then, she’s been amazing—reliable, kind, and clearly someone who loves what she does. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited when Sylvia comes by. I feel really lucky to have found her. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dog walker who truly goes above and beyond!”


About: I grew up as a dog owner, so I'm usually taking care of puppies on their first needs and training, cats overnights care and administering medication if necessary. I moved here from Boston. I work 15 minutes away from home and It allows me to stop in the middle of the day to take the dogs out. I live close to 1 park within walking distance 2 parks within less than 5 miles away. At home, I can provide grooming, a lot of love and a good time.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all types and needs, and I’ve always owned at least four of my own with various health needs. I have a lot of availability during the summer months. Feel free to reach out with your pet needs, there’s a good chance I can make it happen. I have a fenced in yard, pet friendly furniture, two Great Pyrenees greeters and two cats. The cats have their own catio. It’s a pet-first environment!

Ben P.
“Ben and I were roommates at a period of time where there were cats in the house and he is excellent with animals. He is extremely responsible - if he was in charge of watching the cats he made sure that all of their needs were taken care of in a timely manner. He is also extremely caring and loving - he always made sure to play and cuddle with the cats but would respect their space when they needed it. Overall I would highly recommend Ben to take care of any animal, and if I had pets of my own, I would hire him in a heartbeat to look after them.”

Rikki D.
“As a professional dog trainer I don’t give recommendations for other dog professionals lightly! But I can confidently say that Rikki is your best choice for your dog. They have experience with fostering dogs of different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Their own dog has titled in tricks due to their diligent training. And they’ve successfully worked with and trained other species as well including a spicy Sun Conure! On top of their phenomenal animal skills they’re also a people person. Plenty of people like dogs but you need someone who’s communicative, reliable, and personable. You’re definitely in the right place if you want only the best for your dog.”

“Hi all! Ashley has always been my first choice for pup sitting! We have a 1.5 year old tiny chihuahua/ weenie mix and she’s always taken great care of her!

Ellen S.
“Ellen was the first person to teach me how to take care of a dog. Growing up she had two dogs that were at different stages if life, and she treated them both with puppy love, but met their very differing individual needs. Since then Ellen has introduced me to all of her pets who are still loved equally and individually. When I go out of town Ellen is the first person I ask to take care of my dogs because she is kind, responsible, and attentive. I trust her whole heartedly and know my pups are in the best of hands.”
