“So wonderful to have met Lynne! She was great with my anxious dogs and I appreciated that she did the meet and greet and got to know them ahead of time! They currently can't be at home alone and so it was great peace of mind to be able to leave them with her. We'll definitely be booking again. Thank you Lynne!”

We would absolutely book with her again in the future!”

He’s very attentive and communicative - sends pictures and videos during his visit, which we love. We will be continuing to have him watch Sadie on a regular basis and occasionally day care and overnights!”

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs from young to old, big to small, lively to mellow, since I was young. I grew up with dogs in the household and moved on to dog-sitting for neighbors and friends. I have experience taking puppies to training school and working with food-oriented and play-oriented dogs. I'm currently working four days a week, typically through the weekend, so I'm happy to play with your pup anytime on those off days (usually Wednesday, Thursday and/or Friday).My My apartment sadly does not allow pets, but I am happy to take your dog out and about for a stimulating walk or play with your puppy at home.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly can’t imagine a day without furry companionship! I have experience caring for dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to mellow senior dogs. I’ve handled high-energy pups who need frequent dog park visits and leash management, as well as older dogs who require patience and gentle outings at their own pace. I’m also comfortable administering oral medications. As a lifelong pet lover, I know that every dog has their own unique personality, and I take the time to build trust—whether it’s with a playful puppy, a strong tugger, or a shy pup who needs extra patience. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care so your pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while you're away! I am only available on weekends. I may offer week night services for established clients. I require 3 days notice for all bookings. I service East Cambridge and the adjacent neighborhoods. I believe that a pet’s comfort and well-being go hand in hand with a safe and familiar environment. That’s why I care for pets exclusively in their own homes, ensuring they feel secure and at ease while their owners are away. I respect every client’s home as if it were my own—keeping spaces clean, following all household rules, and maintaining your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I pay close attention to leash security on walks, home entry/exit precautions, and any special care instructions you provide. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy cat, I strive to create a calm, loving atmosphere so they feel safe, happy, and cared for.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have taken care of my neighbors and friends dogs/cats sometimes multiple at a time since I was 14. Im very meticulous about pet care and care deeply for animals, and have experience caring for both special needs dogs and dogs that might need a little more attention than most. I have a cat now who I’ve taken care of for 2 years and love deeply, and want to be able to help take care of other people’s pets when they aren’t able to whether it be a quick walk while at work or checking in for a dog while their parent(s) are away to give them the attention they need and deserve! This summer I’m not working my full time job yet so this would be a great opportunity to fill in the extra spare time I have. I’m available any day any time (besides a few short vacations)! Every pet is different and I take the time to listen to special instructions from their owner to make sure everything goes smoothly and without any problems. I’m very cautious and always want to make sure the pet feels comfortable with me and while out on walks.

“This was our second time booking with Gabi and just like last time, she took such great care of our girls! She was so mindful about making them as comfortable as possible that when one of my cats was feeling a bit shy, Gabi gave her a treat to reintroduce herself. Love the thoughtful and carefulness that Gabi has when checking in on my cats. Will be my go-to sitter from now on!!”

About: Growing up my home had all kinds of pets from bunnies to fish, but most importantly dogs and cats! I’ve grown up with various dog breeds from small to big. I’ve also helped care for dogs with anxiety, handled dogs with behavioral issues and familiar with walking large dogs. I’ve handled puppies and smaller breeds as well with bottle feeding and medication. I currently work for a dog toy company focused on making dogs happy! I often foster and volunteer when I can at local shelters. My love of animals goes beyond pets to fueling my mission to care for pets/rescues. I’m a graduate from Boston University currently here for the summer. I’m a social media intern for a small dog toy brand and work remote so I’m flexible with my time and hope to fill my free time by caring for pets! I’m openly available and ready at the whim to help in case you need a hand spontaneously! As a pet owner, I would treat all pets as my top priority just as I would for my own fur babies. I’ll be sure to send detailed updates, communicate thoroughly and be as helpful as possible to clients that could use an extra hand with their pets.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my deep compassion, patience, and experience with dogs who need extra attention—especially those with anxiety or special routines. I have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs, puppies, and pets who struggle with separation anxiety. My own dog, Sasha, has anxiety, so I understand the importance of gentle care, consistency, and emotional support. I treat every pet like family, and I’m committed to creating a calm, safe, and loving environment while you’re away. Whether your pup needs long walks, slow introductions, or just a cozy lap to nap on—I’ve got you covered! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have Mondays and Tuesdays off, which gives me plenty of time for daytime walks and drop-ins. On other days, I’m able to fit in visits between school and work—and I don’t mind doing late-night drop-ins if your pet needs evening attention. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, so I’m happy to make it a priority in my schedule. I’m dependable, flexible, and always focused on making pets feel safe and loved while you’re away. I only offer pet care in the client’s home because I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment. I follow your pet’s routine closely—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or administering medication. I respect your space, keep things tidy, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. My goal is always to provide reliable, stress-free care that gives both you and your pet peace of mind.

Christina was amazing! She was so responsive and sent the best pictures and updates of Moose. She played with him and made sure he got his energy out while she was there with him! I will definitely reach back out when I am planning a trip away again! Grateful to have found her!

We had a wonderful experience with Danielle! She was extremely communicative and kept us updated with lots of photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our cats and spent quality time with them. Best of all, our cats absolutely loved her and were happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter! Thank you, Danielle!

Paige did a great job taking care of my cat while I was gone. She was very attentive and asked a lot of questions to make sure Meeko was getting the best care. Everything was very clean when I got home and I could tell that Meeko was well taken care of. I would definitely have Paige care for him again.
