House Sitting West Cambridge

“Amanda did an exceptional job taking care of my dog and senior cat while I was away. She has great communication skills and kept me informed about each animal’s wellbeing throughout my trip. She is very detail oriented and made sure she had all the information she needed for the sit. Most importantly, Amanda was amazing with my animals! They both absolutely loved her ( and my cat is very particular about people)! She took time to learn their personalities and spent time with each accordingly. I have never come back to such relaxed, happy animals after a sit! I can’t recommend Amanda highly enough!”

“Alison was wonderful! My cats were very well taken care of and I got regular updates. When I came home, everything was clean and my cats were very happy. Highly recommend!”

“We found Jalina on Rover, and needed both a housesitter (water plants, take in mail, etc.) as well as taking care of our pup, Ceci who is used to having some work from home and gets anxious in new spaces. Jalina was exceptional in the lead up to the stay; after a 30min video call to get to know each other and review the space (and the pup), we sent over a reference document in advance with specifics, which she reviewed promptly (and had questions on). We had an hour-long visit a few days in advance, split between going for a walk and going over the fiddly house items, which was great. On the day of departure, she arrived promptly, got settled in, and we went to the airport. We got daily updates on the dog, and Ceci seemed to have a lovely time with her, in her own space and her own routine; Jalina made sure she was very well cared for! Due to a delayed flight, we didn’t have any crossover of us getting back and her leaving, but we coordinated via messaging (super prompt) and we came back to our space just as we left it. Based on this stay with us, we’d recommend Jalina to anyone!”

“Katie was wonderful! She sent regular updates and pictures of our cat, took excellent care of our home, and communicated quickly throughout the planning process before her stay. I couldn’t recommend her more! Hopefully we’re able to book her again. Thanks, Katie!”

“Arshneel was great with our pup!! Ozzy can be a bit shy and slow to warm up but Arshneel went at his pace and made him feel so comfortable!! She sent pictures daily while we were away and left our home in perfect condition!”

“Kaylee is a phenomenal pet sitter! She took great care of our cat and dog. Our dog got plenty of exercise and play. Kaylee’s updates over the weekend let us know our pets were in great hands!”

“We had a fantastic experience with Nicole! She was incredibly communicative from start to finish — always quick to respond and kept us updated with regular photos and messages. Nicole was punctual, reliable, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. Our pup instantly warmed up to her, and it was clear they were in great hands the whole time. She went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, and we came home to a happy, relaxed dog. It was such a relief knowing our pet was being cared for by someone so friendly, professional, and genuinely caring. We’d absolutely book with Nicole again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter”

“Jace looked after our two dogs with great attention and care, provided detailed updates, and made us feel very comfortable while being away. We are grateful!”

“Tanya did a great job taking care of Oreo and keeping me updated over a longer stay. She showed great respect for my home and took feedback and adjustments well when my dog was showing signs of distress. I hope to work with her again.”

“Laura was a great companion to our 5 year old golden doodle over the holidays while were we out of town. Before the sit she asked lots of questions and made she she understood his personality, routines, and needs so he wouldn’t be stressed out while we were away. Once she arrived she made sure he got lots of exercise and attention every day. She sent updates and pictures of him daily and we could clearly tell that he enjoyed her company. While we are sure he was happy to have us home I am sure he missed having Laura around! She also took good care of our home and was a lovely house guest. We are so happy we found her and will definitely have her back in the future. Thank you, Laura!”

Anne S.

“Ugur ws fantastic! He and y pooch, Olivia, clearly bonded well, and I think both had a good time. He also left the house in impeccable order. Don't take the brevity of this review as indicating anything other than time pressure on my part. Ugur was personable, communicative, and flexible in setting up a meet-and-greet before the sit. Highly recommended!”

“We were so happy to have Devika stay in our home with our dog Lucy while we attended a wedding! Devika was very responsive and sent lots of photos of Lucy which I appreciated. She was available on short notice and left our house in great shape. Thank you Devika!!”

“A’Jacia took excellent care of our cat, Kima. She was very communicative with us while we were away. If we were not moving we would absolutely hire her again. We highly recommend her services !”

Ana S.

“Ja'Dana took care of our dog and our home for two weeks while we were traveling. Ja'Dana connected with her easily and clearly loved herShe sent us multiple updates daily, and reached out immediately about any questions that she had. She kept our dog on her same schedule, which we know really helped her through our absence. Our house was just as we had left it. We hope she's available next time we need a pet sitter. We really can't recommend her enough!”

Ginna R.

“Thank you!”

Hannah B.

“Maisel was so great with our dogs, Tavish & Ellie. She took great care of them and they were happy as ever when we returned. She also took meticulous care of our home which she stayed in while we were gone. We’ll definitely book her again next time the need arises!”

About: At 59, I have spent a lifetime caring for animals. I raised my own dogs and cat through two complete life cycles, from playful puppies and kittens to their senior years, so I know what pets need at every stage: proper feeding, exercise, medications, and patience when they're old or unwell. I have also cared for relatives' pets for years while they traveled for vacations or business, and in Houston I was paid by neighbors to look after their animals. Those families trusted me because I treat every pet as my own, with reliability, attention, and affection. I am new to Massachusetts and would love to bring that experience to the pets in my new community." Pet care fits into my routine easily because I am available any day of the week, at any hour. Mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays are all fine with me, and I can adjust to your schedule, including last-minute requests. I have spent my life caring for animals, so feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and simply keeping a pet company are part of my daily rhythm. When your pet is with me, they get my full attention, not whatever time is left over. I send updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet's safety and comfort come first. I keep a calm, clean, secure home and never leave pets unattended or unsupervised with anything unsafe. I follow each pet's feeding schedule, medications, and routine exactly as you describe, and I keep walks on a leash with ID tags. If I'm caring for your pet at your home, I treat it with respect, keep it tidy, and follow your house rules. I pay close attention to behavior and health, and if anything seems off, I contact you right away and, if needed, a veterinarian. I send photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and loved.

“Maddie provided a safe loving environment for my little dog, Lucia! She also went beyond just taking care of her by sending me daily updates & photos- which made me very happy since this was the longest I'd ever been away from her. Maddie also helped out with moving cars due to some ongoing street work requiring them to be moved while I was away. Highly recommend her for your dog sitting needs!”

“Rev was the most responsive, caring and thoughtful caring person! She sent us many, many pictures with updates throughout the days we were away and went out of her way to coordinate with our families as I had undergone an emergency surgery and couldn’t make it back in time. Simply put, Rev is the bestest!!”

About: Hello! I live in Watertown. I enjoy dog walking and pet drop-ins for pure joy. If you book with me, seeing your pet will be a highlight of my day. You can count on me when it comes to communication with you and love for your baby. I bring toys and treats, and can work with shy furry friends. Please note - for dog owners seeking walks or drop ins for going out of town I will need the full schedule of when the pet will be let out in the event I am not covering all potty breaks. Will only take visits where the dog has care every 8 hours at minimum. I work full time from home in HR in Watertown. I want to schedule walks before or after work! Seeing pups brings me immense joy! When entering a clients home I will treat the area with care, make sure to lock up, check for water for the animal. I will do my best to find an appropriate outdoor/garage trash for the waste as well.
