About: I grew up with dogs and so I have experience caring for dogs from their puppy years to their senior years. I am also the resident pet sitter in my family and so I have experience caring for other people's dogs. I want you to feel worry-free knowing your dog is in loving hands!

About: I have 5 years of hands-on experience as a veterinary assistant in an animal hospital, caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. From energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets with special needs, I’m confident handling a wide range of personalities and medical needs. I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and attentive care, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own! I currently attend college Monday-Thursday during short morning or afternoon hours; typically in class between 8am-12pm or 2pm-6pm. I also work overnights as needed on Fridays and Saturdays (3 shifts a month). When caring for pets in your home, I follow their routine exactly to keep them comfortable and stress free. I make sure they’re safe, well-fed, and get plenty of attention, playtime, and love: just like if you were there.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs big or small for as long as I can remember everyone in my family and even friends have so many dogs that I have taken care of I’m reliable and know how to walk, feed, bathe and play with dogs I have always had a love for dogs since I was little. I used to walk a cane corso, pitbull and Australian cattle dog all at once at the age of 13 due to them being my brothers dogs and he lived with me at the time. I now love taking care of my sisters dogs which are mini poodles since my brother moved away and their my best friends🩷 I am available mainly during the week I do work part time to I will be available if needed.

About: As someone who has personally cared for six dogs at once—including different breeds, temperaments, and energy levels—I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, calm, and cared for when you're away. I’m naturally organized, reliable, and attentive to routines, whether that means scheduled walks, feedings, medications, or crate time. I treat every pet with the same respect and attention I’d give my own. Whether it's a high-energy pup who needs playtime or an older dog who prefers quiet companionship, I adapt to what your dog needs most. I also keep communication clear and consistent—expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind. If you're looking for a responsible sitter who respects your home and genuinely enjoys caring for animals, I’d love to connect. I have no problem taking special instructions from owners being that some breeds need to be taken care of differently. Dogs have always been special to me and being a dog sitter/care giver is a great opportunity. I am currently unemployed so my schedule is pretty much open at the moment! I prefer the mornings over afternoons but whichever the customer prefers. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize comfort, routine, and respect—for both the pet and the space. I stick closely to your pet’s usual schedule, whether that includes feeding times, walks, crate time, or medications. I give pets plenty of attention and play, while also being mindful of their energy levels and boundaries. I always clean up after myself (and them), and make sure your home is just as you left it—or better. I check in regularly with photo updates and am available if you have any specific instructions or changes. My goal is to keep your pet feeling safe, relaxed, and loved while you're away—without disrupting their normal environment.

She’s reliable, friendly, and truly goes the extra mile to make sure Finn is happy and well cared for.

About: I've been taking care of pets for friends and family for years, and have always been around pets! I have experience walking, feeding, and spending time with animals, including pets with special medical needs such as cones or medication. Open to all kinds of pets and responsibilities. I have recently graduated college and returned to New York! My schedule is totally flexible and I am hoping for recurring work with some lovely animals. I am comfortable caring for pets within your home as well as taking them for walks around your neighborhood. Pets can also be taken to another location if you prefer that!

About: I grew up with two dogs and know how much they miss their owners while home alone. I’m here to help take care, look after, and visit any pets that need someone to look after them. I’m currently working remote so I’m flexible and open to fit any schedule as needed. Weeknights or weekends, at home or visiting services are all available! Large open spaced condo in east Boston with plenty of room for a furry friend. 10min from the Boston waterfront harbor, so love to do walks in the area.

About: I’ve been caring for and training dogs since I was 10 years old, developing hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds over the years.

Currently, I am attending Penn State University, where I am pursuing a career in veterinary medicine. My hands-on experience, combined with my academic focus, has provided me with unique insights into animal behavior, health, and training techniques. I am dedicated to creating a safe, loving, and structured environment that brings out the best in every pet I care for. Pet care is naturally woven into my daily life. I’m very active and prioritize exercise, so taking dogs on walks and runs is not only part of my routine but also a great way to bond, provide enrichment, and reinforce training. These outings help dogs stay physically and mentally stimulated—and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Additionally for senior dogs, I pay close attention to their behavior and body language, recognizing when they need rest, or extra comfort and support. My academic focus at Penn State revolves around animal care as I pursue a career in veterinary medicine, so I’m constantly learning about animal behavior, health, and wellness. This makes caring for pets both a personal passion and a meaningful extension of my studies. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. I follow each pet’s routine closely and provide a clean, secure space. I use positive reinforcement and repetition with treats to encourage good behavior and teach fun tricks. I don’t currently have pets at home, but I offer a fenced yard and plenty of room to play. I pay close attention to each animal’s behavior and adjust care accordingly, and I keep pet parents updated with regular photos, notes, and honest communication to reassure while they’re away.

Haili D.
“Haili watched our two English Bulldogs for 6 nights/7 days and to say she was amazing is an understatement! My dogs are not easy to handle and she did it like a pro. My 68 lb male loves walks, he's really strong and can really pull and she had no problems handling him three times a day. Being bulldogs, they have plenty of medical issues and she literally handled all forms of meds including eye drops, ear drops, pills and even oral meds via syringe (lactulose for anyone who has a baby w/ stomach issues) and she did all this with no problem or pushback. She was very attentive and responsive when we checked in while giving us our space and not reaching out for every little thing so we can enjoy our vacation. She left the place just like we left it and cleaned up well considering my female vomits a lot and uses wee wee pads for all her bathroom breaks. She was very professional and sweet and I'd highly recommend her for any pet walking or sitting!”
