“Margaret is amazing! She was punctual, personable, had great communication and treated our dog like her own. She gave thorough updates and great photos! We trust her with our dog and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to come take your dog out. We will absolutely be using her in the future 😊”

“Anna took great care of our cat Alfie over the holidays. He's a very sociable cat who asks for a lot of play and affection, and Anna made sure to give him some exercise and cuddles every day.”

“Elizabeth is a very reliable sitter. She shared photos throughout the service time and our cats always looked very comfortable. We have hired her before and will definitely hire her again in the future.”

“Gail did a great job with my three cats. She sent me pictures and videos during her twice daily visits and they were obviously having fun. That made me less anxious while on my vacation. I highly recommend her.”


“Samantha was great! We recently adopted a very active and playful kitten. She did a fantastic job keeping him occupied and safe while we were away. Samantha was very punctual and had great communication. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

“Tessa is fantastic. She stepped in on very short notice and took such great care of Lexi. Lexi can be a bit dramatic 😼 but Tessa handled her with so much patience and kindness. Her communication was excellent, and we felt totally at ease while we were away. We’ve already booked her again and feel so lucky to have found her.”

“Sarah was attentive to my cats needs and sent me photos everyday. I really appreciated the piece of mind she gave me knowing that my cat was well taken care of during my trip.”
About: I’ve walked/sat for dogs since I was a kid. I’ve grown up with a dog and now have my own at the age of 25 I am in Norwood living with my partner and looking for work, I decided to put a profile together and take care of pets to earn some money in the mean time. They’re allowed all the free play space in the open living area. Lots of space to run around. We’re close to a field for fetch and walks and I am more than happy to drive to a fenced in dog park. I have a vehicle and can drive to your home as well to hang out in the pets home if need be. I trained my dog by myself she is very responsible. She is energetic but kind and cuddly. She knows how to sit, come, stay, play dead, sit pretty, give paw, and loves fetch
“Ani was wonderful with my one sick and one healthy cat! She even checked in on the lizard which she didn’t need to do. Thank you! I felt very comfortable going away knowing the pets were in your care.”

“We use Holly nearly every time we go away and she’s always reliable! She goes the extra mile to make sure the cats are cared for and does an amazing job tidying up the cat food trash and litter. Thank you Holly!!”

“Jing is awesome with our three dogs! I was really reluctant to let a stranger come into our house but she is always so respectful and trustworthy with our four legged friends! They get excited when she comes through the door 😂 definitely hire her!”

About: I love all pups and will treat your fur babies as my own 🐾 I have been caring for big dogs since I was a child and have always had a love for them. I also have previous experience working at a doggie daycare, with dogs all breeds, ages, and sizes. I have a somewhat flexible schedule and will be home with your pups to follow their bathroom and feeding schedule and get lots of play time and cuddles while they’re in my care! I wake up around 7 am, feeding and bathroom routine, play time and walks throughout the day. I can also stick to any routine needed. There is currently one dog in my home, so I will only be caring for one additional dog at a time. My apartment complex has grassy areas for bathroom time, and I have plenty of room for your dog to play and rest. Neighborhood walks are also available.
About: I've been around animals for as long as I can remember and have has pets of my own as early as 5 years old. I love animals of all shapes and sizes, and any activity level. I just had to put my 12 year old pup, Penny, down who I have has since 8 weeks old. There is a huge hole in my life and I would love to help out with your pets in any way possible. I truly love animals so much and love to care for them. I work full time, from home and love to get out for walks during the day. I tend to have pockets of free time during the day where I can help with whatever your pet needs that day. I have an unfenced back yard and I live in a very walkable area. I love to give the pet all the love and attention they need!
About: Hi! I've been around animals my whole life, and caring for pets is truly second nature to me. I've owned and loved both dogs and cats since I was a kid, and that lifelong experience shows in how I care for every animal I meet. What really sets me apart is my background in pet care and dog training. I graduated from Norfolk County Agricultural High School, where I took many animal science courses. I took classes in canine behavior, pet shop management, and animal science. I learned how to handle, groom, and care for dogs of all breeds, through hands-on experiences. I bring patience, knowledge, and lots of love to every pet I care for. I am college student spending the rest of my summer from July 8 until August 22 at home. This means I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m already helping my family take care of our own dog, so adding more pets to my routine fits in perfectly! I am available Monday through Friday and am very flexible throughout the day, so I can easily accommodate different schedules and needs. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s, their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I stay in tune with how they are feeling, making sure they’re well-fed, clean, healthy, and getting plenty of rest and outdoor time. At home, I provide a pet-friendly environment. I’m also lucky to live next to a reservation with trails, open fields, and ponds and streams perfect for dogs who love to explore nature. I enjoy taking pets on these little adventures to keep them active and mentally stimulated. When it comes to pet care, I always treat each animal as if they were my own.
“Tara is amazing. She’s dropped in twice now with my dog. We had all sorts of issues with the garage door opener and she figured it out so that I didn’t have to rush home to let her in. (Totally my issue). She is also great with the dog. Nice long walks and lots of pictures”

About: I’ve had a Shitzu for over 10 years and he has been my best friend! I have experience walking and taking care of family and friends dogs over the years and I enjoy every minute I have with their pet. I work full time Monday through Friday, 7am to 3:30pm but Iam available after those hours. I’m also totally free during the weekends. Iam more than happy to find ways to fit into your schedule. I have an open yard with room for fun and a park walking distance away. Iam happy to take care of your friend at any location and my goal is to take care of your dog in any way!
About: When I was 13, my family and I adopted our first dog who came with a rife set of challenges from biting to aggression to anti-social behavior. Over 10 years later, our problematic puppy has become the grumpy yet lovable old dog that he is through intensive training, love, and (lots of) patience. Having taken care of such a pet, I can handle anything. Since then, I have dog-sat and puppy-sat for family members and friends and have loved it! I love dogs, whether they are bouncing puppies or low-key seniors, I love them all. I work from home as tutor, editor, and personal assistant. Additionally, I am pursuing a Master's degree in English and am always looking for a good excuse to get outside! I have a flexible schedule which can vary slightly week-to-week. I live with two other adults, my boyfriend and roommate. We have a two-story house with a basement. All three of us our dog lovers, with my roommate and I having owned and cared for dogs for over 10 years. We don't have a fenced yard, but we do have a lead that we can hook up a dog too. The lead is suited for dogs over 100 pounds, and pups can explore the backyard while being safe. As for care, we follow the owners' instructions in terms of walks, potty breaks, food, and sleep schedules. All three of us having varying work schedules, making it easy to accommodate early risers and night owls.

Nicole did a great job taking care of my cats over the holidays! She fed them, gave Bindi a pill twice a day, and spent time hanging out/playing with them during each visit. She also sent updates and a ton of pictures every time she stopped by. I appreciate that Nicole was super responsive and asked questions whenever things were unclear. Thank you Nicole ☺️

Ani was amazing with our elderly cat Karina. I didn't need to worry at all during our trip because Karina warmed up to her immediately which she rarely does with unfamiliar people. Ani was extremely conscientious and thorough in her care and made sure that our elderly girl was relaxed and content with massages and plenty of love and attention. Thank you so much, Ani.

Lauren did an absolutely fantastic job taking care of my dog! From the start, she was incredibly responsible, responsive, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog clearly felt comfortable and happy in her care, and it was obvious that Lauren treated her like one of her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience — I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
