“I have only the best things to say about Magnoly! She was punctual, professional, responsive, and so very caring with my 3 pups. She handles dogs of various temperaments with grace and knows when and how to step in to avoid negative interactions between dogs. Her Report Cards were thoughtful and the photos she took showed that my dogs were so happy and comfortable with her. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you for everything, Magnoly!”

“Samantha is a great pet sitter. The only opinion that really matters is the pet's, and he took to her immediately on the first visit. He's usually skittish and hides at first if he doesn't know someone, but there he was on the first visit, coming right up to say hello. From the human standpoint, Samantha is a kind person and professional. She shows up and spends time with your pet. Highly recommended!”

About: I have a lot of patience for animals and I love entertaining them, whether that’s playing with them or going on a long walk. For the younger ones, or ones that just have more energy, I would love to run them and keep them in shape. I am super flexible this summer, aside from a few weeks of travel, so whatever works for you works for me. My main priority is going to the gym, but other than that I’m all yours! Whether it’s feeding, walking, brushing, playing, or simply snuggling, I’m always giving my full attention and affection. Also, I think mental stimulation is often overlooked in animal care so I try to incorporate fun games and activities.

About: Hello there!! Thank you for checking out my profile. I’m a college student and a dog lover! I’ve taken care of dogs before for family, friends and of course my own furry babies! I have experience with different size dogs, different personalities and different ages. I’m a gentle and loving person, so I know your dog will have fun 💕 I’m a full time college student, so my schedule changes every semester (every 5 months or so). But I can definitely fit pet care in my daily routine. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have experience with dogs that have anxiety, so that wouldn’t be a problem! I love to play, so we’ll have fun play sessions

“I feel like I won the lottery getting Charles and Theresa to look after our cat Buffy and my 4 mice. Buffy is extremely anxious around new people, but they were so sweet and patient with her. They talked to her and played her calming kitty music during each visit. I appreciated that they sent such detailed notes after every visit. That combined with the lovely pics they sent (not always easy with a nervous cat and energetic mice!) put my mind at ease so we could really enjoy our trip. Seriously they could charge extra for these pictures. They’re now some of my favorite pictures of the babies. Thank you x a million!!”

“Robyn is fantastic! Great communicator, timely, attentive to details, responsible, but most importantly our sometimes shy pup Brix LOVES her and has clearly been happy and relaxed each time we come home. She a Dog Whisperer(!) Highly recommend!”

Georganne & Jeff T.

“Heather does a great job - very conscientious and caring. She's in contact when she has questions, and she's very responsive when we need to reach her. Definitely our go-to sitter!”

Kerry G.

“Laura was great. She cleaned some unfortunate litter box issues. Bless her. More importantly than that, though. I returned home to cats that were not stressed. This is a first for them and I’m so grateful.”

Carolyn Briggs S.

“Alyssa was so sweet to my cats while I was away. She took such good care of them and made sure they had everything they needed. She sent detailed reports after each visit and pictures of my fur babies. I would absolutely recommend Alyssa and will use her again for my next trip.”

About: I’m a licensed veterinarian in Brazil and I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. My father is a huge dog lover, so I grew up helping care for our family pets from a very young age. In Brazil, I had four dogs who are now happily living with my parents. Here in the U.S., I have my sweet mini Goldendoodle, Madalena, who is very friendly and loves having company. Because of my background in Veterinary Medicine and my lifelong experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, I feel very confident providing safe, responsible, and attentive care. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work at a coffee shop from 6:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. After 3:30 p.m., I’m fully available for pet care, including walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting. On Sundays and Mondays, I’m off from work and available all day for boarding, daycare, and other services. Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first. I offer a calm, clean, and cozy home environment where pets can relax, play, and feel secure. My mini Goldendoodle, Madalena, is very friendly and gentle, which helps visiting dogs feel more comfortable and welcomed. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, I always follow their routine exactly as instructed—feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. I’m very attentive to body language and behavior to make sure each dog feels safe, respected, and stress-free. I provide constant supervision when I’m home, lots of love and positive interaction, and a peaceful space where dogs can settle in comfortably. My goal is to make every pet feel like part of the family.

About: I have grown up around dogs and horses, and love taking my parents lab to the beach a park while home in Massachusetts. I have experience caring for neighborhood pets and multiple horses. I am currently on break from graduate school in Boston, and would love to help care for or exercise your dog. Before grad school, I worked in a demanding corporate environment, which showed me the importance of having time and care for your pets. Please let me know your dog’s routine and what makes them comfortable. My parents have two dogs we walk at the same time, so happy to discuss your pets comfort around other animals.

“Maddison was wonderful ?”

“Rachael was great! Would have her back again for sure. Was very sweet with our timid rescue Brinkley. Thank you Rachael for taking good care of him.”

“Bridget is so reliable and was absolutely awesome with my cat. I would highly recommend her.”

Michele P.

“Jamie was terrific for Drop-In visits for our golden retriever! Responsive, timely, reliable, great communicator and updates. Best part was how comfortable our pup was with her and happy she was when we got home. Clearly well cared for and loved while we were away. Highly Recommmend!”

About: Hi, I’m Jay! If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets as much as you do, you’ve come to the right place. Animals have been my biggest passion for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, snakes, and everything in between, and I truly believe every pet deserves personalized care, lots of love, and plenty of attention. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a cuddle buddy, playtime, meals, medication, a bath, or just someone patient and dependable while you’re away, I’m here to help! Long haired pups or kitties that hate being brushed? No problemo! I’m happy to tackle the fluff so you don’t have to. 😊 One thing that sets me apart is that I’m constantly learning. I love researching animal behavior, enrichment, nutrition, and the best ways to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to get to know what makes yours feel safe and comfortable. I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your best friend with someone else, so I’ll care for your baby like they’re my own. You can expect plenty of updates, adorable photos, and the peace of mind that your furry, feathered, or scaly family member is in loving hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your bestie! 🤍 Caring for pets has always been part of my daily routine. I work early mornings, so I’m able to give pets attention, care, and playtime before work, after I get home, and throughout the evening. I’m used to keeping a consistent routine with my own cats and making sure they’re fed, comfortable, and cared for. I only accept bookings that fit my schedule so I can give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I know leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I do everything I can to make the experience easy for both you and your pet. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely, keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I’ll send lots of updates and pictures (because I know I’d want them too!) so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind. Whether your pet is super energetic, a little shy, or just wants someone to hang out with, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m very detail oriented and always pay attention to things like securely closing doors and gates, keeping dogs safely leashed on walks, and making sure your pet is happy and comfortable. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and feel confident that they were treated like family while you were away.

About: I currently work as a supervisor at a doggy daycare and have hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs. I also have personal experience caring for special needs and mobility-impaired dogs, including medication administration and bladder expression. Animals are truly my passion, and I treat every pet like family. I work mornings and spend a lot of time caring for my own rescue babies, so I currently offer pet care visits between 3 PM–9 PM to ensure every animal gets my full attention and care. I know how important trust is when it comes to someone caring for your pets, because my own babies are my entire world too. I believe building a bond with each pet is just as important as meeting their physical needs, so I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll care for your pets with patience, attention, and kindness while keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible.

“Sharon was fantastic! She did drop in visits for our dog Izzie and we couldn't have been happier. Sharon kept us updated with photos and text messages each visit. Sharon is clearly an animal lover and treated Izzie like one of her own. We highly recommend Sharon and we can’t wait to use her again.”
