“Sarah-Jane was a great care giver for our cat, Loki. She made sure Loki was fed, brushed, played with and cared for during our absence. Sarah-Jane precisely followed my care instructions and left our house key where we asked her to leave it. I highly recommend her for your pet’s needs.”

About: I've cared for dogs since I was young, with over 3 years of hands-on pet care experience. Friends and neighbors often trust me to walk, feed, and look after their dogs. At home, I'm the proud owner of a mini poodle, so I understand the daily needs, routines and personalities of small breeds. I'm patient with puppies, gentle with senior dogs, and always attentive to each pet's comfort and safety. Also I love running and often take dogs with me for safe, fun jogs, which keeps them happy and healthy. I care for my own mini poodle every day, so pet care is already a part of my daily routine. This makes it easy and natural for me to care other dogs at the same time. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups. I live in a quiet, low-traffic neighborhood that's very safe for daily walk. Our home is just a short walk from Nara Park and Bruce Freeman Rail Trail. My friendly mini poodle helps new pups feel welcome, and I always supervise playtime to make sure every dog feels secure and cared for.

“We loved having Julia for drop-in visits for our two dogs! One of our dogs, Chip, was recently adopted (<1 week), so we were nervous leaving him, but Julia took such good care of them and it gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. She was also very flexible with our different needs, such as feeding at evening drop-ins, followed all the instructions, was very responsive and sent lots of photos of each visit, which helped me worry less about Chip. I would definitely recommend Julia to care for your fur babies!”

About: Please read my availability before booking :) Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up with both dogs and cats, and nothing makes me happier than spending time with them. I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for my coworkers for years, and I truly enjoy caring for animals like they’re my own. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, walks, or just keeping your pets company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. You can trust that I’ll provide the best care possible and treat your furry family members with the same attention and affection I’d give my own. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I currently work in a medical office Tuesday-Friday 7:30am-5pm. Though I am able to house sit these days, I am unable to let them out during the day while I am at work. Saturday-Monday I am free to give all my attention to your pets! I am very energetic, just like your pups. I love to walk with or without a dog. If I am pet sitting, I am very good at sticking to directions so I can care for your animals exactly how you want them to be cared for while throwing in a couple extra play times!

About: Hi! I'm Alicia, and I'll love your pets like they're my own. I've been a professional pet sitter for 7 years, caring for dogs, cats, and more of every age, size, and personality. I offer in-home care — overnight stays, dog walks, and drop-in visits — so your pets stay where they're happiest: at home with their own bed and routine. No kennel stress, just a new friend showing up with treats and belly rubs. I'm comfortable with medications, senior pets, and special needs, and as a rescue dog mom myself, I know what it means to trust someone with your best friend. That's why every new client gets a free meet-and-greet first — so your pet can decide if they like me (they will!). Message me anytime — I'd love to meet your furry family! I work weekdays (typically 9-5 or 1-9 shifts), so here's how my care fits around your pet's day: Overnight stays: Before I leave for work, your pet gets breakfast, a walk or potty break, and some playtime to burn off energy. When I'm back, the rest of the evening is all theirs — dinner, walks, play, and plenty of cuddles through the night. Weekends: I'm all yours! No day job on weekends means full availability for walks, drop-ins, and overnights. Walks & drop-in visits: Available around my weekday shifts and anytime on weekends. Please book in advance — I can't usually accommodate same-day requests, but with a little notice I'll make it work! The more notice, the better — especially for holidays. Message me and we'll find a schedule that keeps your pet happy and comfortable! Your pet's safety is always my top priority. Since I care for pets in your home, they stay in the environment where they feel safest — surrounded by familiar sights, smells, and routines. I follow your instructions to the letter: feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, house rules, and any quirks your pet has. Dogs are always leashed and wearing secure collars or harnesses on walks, and I double-check doors, gates, and windows before and after every visit so there's never a chance of an escape. With 7 years of experience and daily work around animals, I'm attentive to the small stuff — changes in appetite, energy, or behavior that might signal something's wrong. I'll always keep you informed with updates and photos, and I'll contact you right away if anything ever seems off. Your home is treated with the same respect as your pet: I keep things clean and tidy, and your keys and entry information stay secure. You can relax knowing both your pet and your home are in careful, trustworthy hands.

About: I’ve been in the animal care field since 2022 and have done a little bit of just about everything! Food and Supply sales, assistant grooming, dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits. In addition, I'm currently pursuing my associate's degree in animal care and have a wonderful 1-year-old lab/pitbull mix named Judy! I’m currently working part time as a dog walker, so my availability will be weekdays after 4PM until 10PM, and 8AM to 6PM on weekends (weekend sittings are available for full days on Sat/Sun) My yard unfortunately isn’t fenced in, so I always make sure my dogs are leashed and are wearing their collars with AirTags just in case. I don’t board dogs at my house due to the yard having no fence. When walking other dogs I always double clip their leash to their harness and collar.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 9 years old. My family has two large labs (13 years old and 6 years old) that I helped train since they were puppies. I often watch them for my parents when they go on vacation, so I am very comfortable with overnight care and love taking my pups for long walks. I also had a cat for 3 years in college. I love spending time with all animals!! I graduated college with my Bachelor’s degree in May and am currently living at home with my family. My days are filled with applying for jobs, going to the gym, making sourdough bread, spending time outdoors, and caring for my dogs. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention and companionship they need. I do not offer care in my own home because I want to keep my dogs’ environment comfortable and stress-free. However, I am happy to provide care in your home, where your pet will feel most secure and comfortable. I have a spacious SUV equipped with dog beds and a ramp for my older dog, allowing me to safely transport pets for walks when needed. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away.

“Nicole was awesome. Followed the direction I left was able to do a last minute meet and greet and sent lots of photos!! Would highly recommend to friends.”

“Tom was terrific with my dogs. He arrived at the agreed upon time, spent lots of time ensuring they all got individual attention, and ensure every detail was handled properly for the pups. He is wonderful and I will definitely be using him again.”

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 attend college so I’m able to give your babies attention, care, and playtime before class, in between, and during study time! 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: As a lifetime dog lover and owner, your dog will be in good hands here. I have fostered and provided basic training to over 14 puppies in the past year and I remain close with almost all of the adopters. I have two hound/ lab mix rescues - Spencer is 8 YO and Peaches is 7 MO. Both were rescued at almost 4 months old and both are neutered and spayed. Our household (me, my husband, our HS Senior, and our pups) loves dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperments. We (our dogs included) understand how to read cues and body language and respond appropriately. My promise to you and your fur babies are that they will have plenty of walks, indoor/ outdoor playtime, potty breaks as needed and as frequently as every 30 min, training and mental stimulation games, water, a comfortable space to rest, and as their health and well being are my top priority, they will have adult supervision at all times. I will only board dogs of the same household in my home at one time. The exception to this is if they are already known friends. Communication is important - tell me their likes, dislikes, known commands, feeding schedules, dietary/ physical restrictions, medication needs, etc. and I will ensure to follow the rules and schedules of your home. I will send plenty of updates and pics and if needed I am happy to give baths and nail trims — if they don't mind them. I guarantee your dogs will return home happy. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! Training commands I practice regularly are sit, lay down, paw, wait, come, short leash training, and potty training. Spencer and Peaches have proven to be great trainers as well! During meet and greets or via messages I can share what I have for toys, treats, bath time shampoo, pet conditioner, nail trims, etc. I'm happy to use what you provide as well. My schedule is currently very flexible. The majority of my work is remote. As I work towards my next business venture, I would like to continue my passion of working with dogs using positive reinforcement. I have a large yard surrounded by woods in a quiet community. When dogs are in the yard they have leashes on them unless they have good recall as the yard is not fenced. I will always be outside with them with a pouch full of treats. I also have a gated porch to ensure dogs can enjoy time sitting on the porch and will not escape into the yard when we open the slider. Walks in the neighborhood and on trails are always on leash. If your dog is accustomed to the Chelmsford dog park, I would be happy to bring them there as well once I get to know them. I use adjustable doggy seatbelts while driving. I will only bring two dogs max. Feeding schedule is two or three times per day depending on each dogs schedule. They will eat alongside of my dogs or they can have their own space to eat without distractions. I have two large crates with a divider to create a smaller space if needed. Most dogs have full access to the main first floor. The upstairs is available to fully trained dogs after getting to know them better. I have multiple gates to block access to rooms when needed. I get to know all dogs I board by communicating with their owners and with close frequent observation. I ere on the side of caution, test in small increments in safe quiet settings, building trust and increasing freedom accordingly with the best intentions to ensure their safety and security. New high value dog bones are prohibited while boarding. I have plenty of safe, dog friendly bones and toys here that I'm sure will keep your pup(s) happy.

About: I’ve always been an animal person and will treat your fur baby as if they were my own. I can relax with them, walk around your neighborhood with them, play with them- whatever they need. I am available for dog walking and drop-in visits to check in on your dogs, ensuring they have food, water, and plenty of attention while you are away. I will take both, your needs and your best friends’ into account and accommodate the best way I can to ensure I am providing what works for you and your pup.

“Emily was so wonderful with taking care of our cat and dog! She provided great updates with lots of details and photos, and we could relax on our trip knowing our pets were getting lots of attention and love. 😊”

About: My name is Thalia and I’m ready to make your pup feel like they’re one of my own. I provide a safe and welcoming environment to make your pet feel right at home. I work from home, so I can be there for your pet daily or weekly. I can provide your pet with frequent potty breaks and walks as well as allow time for play. I always make sure my pets are safe inside my home. Providing them with fresh clean water and a safe place to have their meals. Pets are allowed on the furniture in my home and I have various dog beds throughout my home.

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs for my entire life, and I have frequently been asked by neighbors and family friends to care for their furry friends while they are away. I have been consistently petsitting for a family for the past 2-3 years, taking care of their two french bulldogs. I am comfortable with puppies and older dogs, have a car so I can take your furry friends to any dog park/trail that they may be accustomed to, and have flexible availability as I am a college student currently on summer break. I have some light experience training my own puppy with simple commands, and have experience in dealing with pets that have general anxiety/nervousness, as my own dog has been on medication for anxiety before. I'm currently a college student working part-time during the summer with a very flexible schedule! My availability is typically Wednesday-Sunday, however sometimes Fridays are tricky for me. I can drop in any time of the day from 8am to 8pm, and I am flexible on days/times if needed! On Mondays and Tuesdays I am also available for quick midday check ins, quick walks and some play time! Drop-ins consist of potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course plenty of snuggles in order to keep your pet happy and healthy while you are away. 30 Minute dog walks consist of a stroll around the neighborhood or at a local trail or park where your dog will get their exercise, mental stimulation, and fresh air for the day.

“Lucille is everything you would want for pet care. She’s thorough, experienced & reliable. Even when I feel like I’m being over the top she will think of something I’m not! She’s so good with animals, your pet will sense her genuine affection & feel safe & loved. They are in good hands until your back.”
