“We are so glad to have found David! His calm demeanor was a perfect match for our sometimes-rambunctious big dog. We appreciated his updates (enough but not too many) and his good questions. We’ve already hired him to dogsit for our next trip.”


“Sara took wonderful care of Charlie and I would certainly leave him with her again. Even though he can be shy, Charlie took to Sara the first time he met her which put me right at ease. It was easy to communicate with her and it was so nice to receive pictures of them together. When I returned it was obvious that Charlie was well taken care of and that my condo was left as clean and neat as I left it!!”


“Charlene was amazing, so happy she was able to stay over with our girl! Definitely recommend her and vouch for her services; she was so easy to work with and did an amazing job!! Very much planning to work with her again in the future!”


“Salina took good care of our female German shepherd. She was able to keep our pup on her regular schedule while giving her some nice individual attention. Salina is very responsible and was able to make our travels worry free.”


“She’s great and my pups loved her.”

“Traci did an AMAZING job with our elderly girl. She left the house neat and our girl was happy. My family feels much more comfortable going away knowing Traci will be there to watch our girl.”

“Devon is the best!!!! She is reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy....... and went "above and beyond" to take care of our sheltie puppy Pepper this weekend. Devon is amazing with dogs and Pepper loved Devon instantly. When we returned home from our weekend away, it was obvious that Pepper was very well cared for. Thank you, Devon, for the outstanding care you gave Pepper. We look forward to using you again.”

About: I grew up with two cats, a few bunnies and a canary. We fostered dogs at times growing up as well. My sister had a well established pet sitting/walking business and for years I helped her when she was out of town and met so many adorable pups and cats. A couple of years ago I started taking on clients of my own part time and have really found so much joy and fun keeping all kinds of furry companions company while their family can’t be home. I work remotely and have a very flexible work/life balance. Pet sitting and walking/feeding the lil furballs fits perfectly into my life and schedule 😊 As a general rule I try to learn as many of your pets behaviors and what kind of personality they have to try keep them as happy and as cozy as possible while you’re away or while I’m just feeding them or taking them for a walk

About: I am a typical pet-lover, and as a high school teacher, I am responsible, reliable, and good at "herding cats"--just kidding :) Maximum availability during summer and school vacations. As a single person, I have a lot of flexibility. Pet sitting is my only job during the summer. I am a full-time high school teacher with school vacations free. My own dog died in February, so now I have no issues with traveling or juggling pet compatibility and scheduling. I am prepared to stay at my clients' homes. I am also able to board some pets at my home depending on individual needs and circumstances.

About: I had a Tennessee hound rescue for 10 years. She was very healthy and so deeply loved. To this day, I can never walk by a dog without saying hi! I’m home from college for the summer and have great availability. I am 20 years old and am a student at UMass Amherst. I work at school as a career development advisor for underclassmen and next summer I will be an audit intern at Ernst & Young. I would prefer to commute to the client’s house to take care of their pet! This works best for me and provides familiarity for the dog.


“Ellen did a fantastic job with our older dog Alice and our birds pets. She communicated with us on a regular basis and left the house in its pristine condition. We have hired her again for another trip.”


About: I have 2 dogs myself and I’ve taken care of pets for years. I’m a very diligent worker and will take great care of your pets! I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I would love to dog sit, dog walk, or anything that is needed! I can easily watch your pets when they go outside and make sure nothing happens. I can also put them in their crates and take care of their needs.

“Allison stayed at our home with our two dogs for 7 days and we feel so fortunate to have found her. She is responsible, a great communicator and caring. One of our dogs was sick at the time so she gave medication, made food for him, and communicated with us about our dogs health while we were away. Our house was immaculate when we returned and our pups were given so much love while we were gone. We will hire her again and would highly recommend!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little. I am gentle but confident with them, and you can depend on me to take good care of your best friend. I have a job that allows for remote work flexibility and that has a relatively predictable schedule, allowing me to take care of your pet. My apartment is dog friendly, with a pet spa for baths/brushing and an outdoor dog park where they can run around off leash with some fun obstacles. I also have a balcony where dogs love to lounge in warm weather.

“Kate was really wonderful! The best cat buddy yet. She was very responsive, sent lots of pictures and made me feel very secure about leaving my cat, Riley, for a few days. In the past, when I've left, I return to a very hyperactive, stressed little guy that takes a couple days to calm down. But this time, it was as if I had never left. He was happy to see me but calm and happy. So not sure what Kate's magic is, but I will definitely try to continue to make her our full-time sitter!”


About: I love animals and enjoy the time with furry babies. I am a dog foster parent and used to walk and sit my mom and sister’s dogs while living in the same state. Not trying to make a living out of pet sitting or dog walking, just trying to spend my free time with animals and to cover gas & mileage. Welcome all in the Weston, Wayland, Sudbury, Hudson, Maynard, Stow, Acton, Framingham, Marlborough, Bolton, Berlin, Southborough areas. My schedule is flexible. I’m working remotely part time as an analyst and love animals, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available 11am to 11pm most of the days. I will follow your requirements for your furry baby, please let me know all the essential information that I should be aware of. Please feel free to contact me anytime while I’m with your furry baby.
