“Great communication and compassion!”

“I was very happy with the care Alex provided to my Italian Greyhound, Zoey. She took a picture of Zoey and sent to me and then followed up afterwards. Alex is very friendly and easy to work with. I will definitely use her in the future and highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve been a devoted dog mom for my entire adult life, opting for fur babies over physical children. I’m the proud momma of a Yorkie, German Shepherd and Bernese Mountain Dog. I also volunteer as a foster with New England Puppy Rescue (NEPR). I believe that sharing our lives with dogs is one of life’s greatest joys. And while there’s few things I enjoy more than cozy days home with my babies, I also have a strong passion for travel. For years I have tried an assortment of different pet sitters and it’s been a bit frustrating. We’ve had sitters where their prices jumped substantially without warning. Ones that have promised to send photos and then provided minimal updates during their stay. And others that were hard to coordinate dates with. But worst of all we’ve dealt with too many that didn’t quite feel like the right fit. They lacked that feeling of warmth and connection. Over these experiences I have learned that it can feel impossible at times to find the care that truly puts your mind at peace. And so I’ve decided to become that in which I seek. I want to be a safe haven for others - so that when you’re out of town you can feel the truest sense of comfort knowing your beloved pets are in the best care possible. Not only will I treat your dogs like they’re my own - spoiled with plenty of playtime and affection - but I will provide daily report cards and beautiful candid photos. I am a firm believer in building relationships with my clientele so you’ll feel comfortable each and every time you need my care. My three dogs are incredibly sweet and will also make for great hosts, if you should decide to have us watch your little cutie in our home. We have a beautiful, spacious partially fenced in yard. A fenced in pool with its own puppy deck for those hot days when the pups want to bask in a few inches of splash time (life jackets are an option). We also have a gated deck so everyone can hang outside together without any concern of wildlife. For drop-in dog walking visits, I can come with my Bernese Mountain Dog if you prefer. So your angel gets some puppy playtime while we get their exercise in. I am flexible to make sure you’re getting the customized care your little one needs. I even offer an add-on option of airport pickup and dropoff if you’re traveling. Whatever you need, I’m willing to work with you to become your trusted go-to for your pet’s needs. I work entirely remote so I’m with my dogs nearly 24/7. Whether lounging around at home, enjoying playtime outside in the yard or going for nice walks my life is devoted to my own fur family. And I’d love to pay it forward and offer my devoted care to your pets for those times when you can’t be nuzzled up at home with them. My dogs are treated like family. They have full run of the house with toys scattered about. On beautiful days we hang out for hours on our gated deck. And in the summertime they love coming out to our fenced in pool for playtime complete with a sun shelf which serves as a fun, puppy splash pad. Every moment is fully supervised. Especially when we are outdoors. Our backyard is partially fenced but for all of our fur-guests I will be personally taking them out on leash for potty breaks. While our dogs are incredibly obedient and frolick about off-leash in our yard I never want to chance an escape artists for our fur-guests. My dogs love to snuggle on the couches and bed and we never deny them that. Which is the same way we’d welcome a new friend into the mix. We’re used to dog hair everywhere :) For dog walking visits I can come solo or bring along my sweet Bernese Mountain Dog, Willie. Whichever you prefer! Whatever your needs - just ask. I’m happy to accommodate your little one.

“Nicole was great with the dogs, on time for visits, and a great communicator. We have our next vacation booked with her. I would highly recommend her to take the anxiety out of leaving the pups behind for time out of the house!”

“Tyler is great, and our dog Lucy loves him. We’ve been using Tyler and MJ for several months for doggie daycare, this was our first time needing drop in care and he came twice during the day when we had to be out for most of the day.😊”

“Sam was fantastic with my 5-year-old Schnoodle, Toby. Toby can be reactive and anxious around new people and other dogs. Let's just say he doesn't always leave a great first impression. Sam listened attentively when I described his "little quirks," and she was patient with him knowing that the sweet boy that he is would show himself when he felt more comfortable. Toby was well cared for during my extended day at the office. He enjoyed long walks, playtime, and cuddles with Sam, who sent me photos of their shenanigans throughout the day. I can't thank Sam enough for the care she provided, and I plan to use her services again in the future! If Toby could talk, he would rate Sam a 10/10!!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, starting my pet care career in high school at a doggie daycare, and ending up here, with 6 years of professional experience and the same love of animals I’ve had since the beginning. I do have a full time job that prevents me from doing any jobs between the hours of 7am-4pm on weekdays. I have open availability weekends and in the evenings after 4:30pm I treat all animals the way I would hope someone would take care of my girls when I go on vacation. There’s nothing more important to me than knowing they’re in good hands with someone who will not only stop by and feed them, but spend time with them, maybe cuddle on the couch or just keep them company. I understand that your pets are family, and I will always treat them as such.

“Paula was extremely accommodating and took great care of our three dogs during a drop-in visit. We will definitely reach out to her again in the future.”

“Chris was wonderful. Responded at the last minute, supported watching our babies with minimum guidance and was attentive to our babies. I would highly recommend Chris!!! THANK YOU CHRIS”

Suzanne S.

“Brittany was amazing with my pitty. This was my first time having someone check in on her, especially, since she is a very hyper & energetic pitbull. I will definitely be requesting service from her in the future!”

Desiree N.

“We love Lesley!! She is great with our dog, Finnegan. She has been walking him now for about 9 months. She has helped him learn to walk better on the leash (and helped us learn how to walk him better!). She also lets us know if she notices anything out of character or anything to be concerned about. She surprised us at Christmas with a great, sturdy toy that she hand made, and which Finn loves. We can't recommend Lesley enough! We're so sad to be losing her as we move out of town.”

“Melanie has cat sat for us multiple times & she is the best! She is trustworthy, responsive, and keeps us informed daily with Rover report cards!! We will hire her again! Lots of paws and thumbs up! 5 stars all the way!”

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was 6 years old. I have pet sitting experience both with boarding and in home care. I've worked at a grooming place bathing, drying, and brushing cats and dogs. Pet care is my only job. My schedule is open. So I have full availability. I am also not attending college right now so there's no issues there. We have other friendly pets in the house to keep your fur babies company. We have a backyard for them to use the bathroom and play. My neighborhood is also good for dog walks.

About: I am 22 years old and have taken care of dogs my whole life. I have experience with puppies- geriatric dogs including giving medication when needed. I am a recent college graduate with open availability. As the job hunt is extremely difficult, I am very flexible to fit you and your animals needs! I currently have 2 small dogs with a fenced in yard and a constant need for cuddles. I feed them twice a day, once for breakfast and once for dinner and they receive allergy vitamins daily.

About: I grew up with two amazing dogs—one is now 17 and the other is a playful 4-year-old—so I’ve cared for pups at every stage of life. From energetic walks to gentle senior care, I understand what dogs need to feel happy, safe, and loved. Whether it’s belly rubs, fetch, or sticking to their routine, I’m here to make sure your dog feels right at home. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I'm available Monday through Friday. I am happy to spend quality time with your pet, whether that means walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I make sure any cat or dog that I am caring for is getting fed their daily amount, they have gone on walks or used the bathroom (cleaning the litter daily if it’s cats), they get plenty of water, and make sure they get plenty of stimulation through play time.

About: I have worked as a professional dog trainer for Monty's Dog Training and Services for the past 5 years. I have abundant experience with dogs of all kinds, ages and needs. I work closely with aggressive and reactive dogs, as well as dogs with anxiety. No dog is beyond help, it just takes time, patience and persistence. I currently work part-time, so I have a lot of free time that I would love to fill with pet care, and especially dog training. Helping dogs in need and their people is a passion of mine. I have a strong background in dog psychology and am more than capable of handling any issues that may arise with either one or multiple dogs. I am pet first aid certified and will be able to act quickly in the unlikely event of an emergency.

About: I’ve had all kinds of different dogs and cats throughout my life and am part of a big family which has the same, let alone my animal sitting experience with ages ranging from babies to some senior pups. I’ve never met an animal I didn’t love:) I’m currently working part time while finishing my college degree, but definitely have time to meet some new furry friends! Look forward to meeting you and your fluff ball and being able to provide some extra love to your fur pets!:) I think it’s important to get to know your pets needs and I understand the importance of consistency for fur babies. Willing to do whatever makes you and your fur baby most comfortable while providing some extra love and pets:)

“Sarah is an amazing help! I used her consistently for almost 2 months while I was busy in school. She came by multiple times a week (sometimes with short notice) to check on my pup. She cared for him like he was her own and I never had any hesitations with her. I would HIGHLY recommend Sarah!”

About: I’ve lived with and taken care of animals my whole life. I grew up in a house with 3 cats so I’m very used to a lot of love and also chaos. However I always loved dogs and have now been living with my pup for about 2 years. She is the sweetest and I love taking care of her. She receives medication every day as well as monthly treatments for flea and tick. I would love to meet and take care of your little friends too. I also have some experience taking care of chickens and small birds. I’m currently working part time with a pretty flexible schedule. This allows me to be able to watch pets every day of the week. I’m more than happy to try to figure something out so I can be available to stop in as often as need be. I take the safety and comfort of pets very seriously. I have a dog who is very reactive and anxious around other dogs. I have a lot of practice noticing when a dog feels uncomfortable or irritated. I also have a good amount of experience controlling an aggressive dog safely. But I’ve also handled and watched dogs that were cuddle bugs, I love nothing more than to relax all day with a fur baby on my chest.

About: I've had a passion for caring for animals ever since I can remember. I would often pet sit for friends and family and I quickly learned I wanted to spend my life working with animals. Fast forward to the present, I am a full-time pet sitter that keeps a special place in my heart for each and every four-legged friend I've been able to care for! Pet care is my full-time job, so your pet is my top priority! I am available every weekday, weekends, and most holidays. I am available for overnight stays and drop-in visits. Overnight stays allow your pet to have someone there all day and all night to get the love they need while you can't be there; and drop-in visits allow your pet to get the care they need at the times they are used to at a frequency you pick. Feel at ease knowing your pet is in the comfort of their own home able to carry out their normal routine- whatever feeding, potty, and walk times your furry friend is used to.
