“Jennifer is amazing. She has a beautiful way with animals. Jennifer made my vacation relaxing as I didn’t have to worry about my pets. I highly recommend her and I am going to continue working with her.”
“We had an amazing experience with Liam. I think my dogs were actually disappointed when we came back. Excellent with communication and puts all his energy into giving the pets a great experience. I plan to use him all the time.”
About: I have several years of tending to dogs and cats, (as well as some birds) of all ages, sizes and temperaments. I’m comfortable handling potentially difficult dogs and cats, regardless of age and/or disabilities. I have also worked at Morris Animal Inn and currently work at a vet clinic while I prepare to go to vet school. I have a cat of my own, Forrest who I love very dearly. I can also administer medications orally, topically, and subcutaneously. I can monitor all bathroom trips for stool and urine output, give baths, clips nails, or clean out ears if needed. I also take the BEST pictures of pets and can give you updates whenever you’d like :) At the moment, I am currently working full time at a vet clinic, but most weekends I am off or get out early. Im currently available most Friday afternoons to Sundays nights as well as most Tuesdays. Im also flexible to work other days circumstantially. I have a formerly feral cat at home who is now an indoor-only cat that I adopted from my current job. I feed him twice daily as well as clean his litter box morning’s and evenings. He is up to date on all of his exams and shots, and is also on a hydrolyzed diet since he has some food allergies. Additionally I make sure to keep his nails short since he loves to make biscuits on my face :)
“Eva did an amazing job watching our pup! She was very responsive and adaptable. She took great care of our rambunctious 5 month old puppy for a weekend! She sent lots of updates and pictures and we came home to a very very happy puppy! Can't say enough good things!”
“Wonderful experience with Liam! He stayed with our dog for 4 days/3 nights. Sent lots of pictures and reached out when he had questions. When we returned home everything was perfect and our dog was happy and healthy. Will be using him again for our next trip!”
“Morgan: has our complete trust to care for our dog Maddy and cat Charley. She is a good communicator, is a person who cares for pets and treats them like her own. Morgan is poised and responsible and someone we are comfortable leaving in charge of our home. She has watched our pets periodically for several years and does the little things to make them comfortable when we are away. Our dog Maddy knows her name and gets excited when we tell her Morgan is coming by! Without hesitation we can recommend Morgan.”
“I have a 12 year old dog and a 12 year old cat. The dog is pretty sick and needs very specific care and Jessica went above and beyond for both of them! You can tell she really cares deeply for the animals she takes care of. She sends very helpful updates, is very attentive to their needs and my pets already miss her.”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter and it was such a positive experience! Natalie was AMAZING! It's clear how much she loves animals. She was able to keep our anxious dog calm and distracted while we were away. She kept us informed and sent pictures regularly. We will absolutely call on her again to care for our dog!”
“Antonia was the absolute best!! We were so happy with her watching our fur babies! She was so informative and kept us updated throughout her stay, which we really appreciated. We had never left our dogs with everyone and this being our first time was an absolute dream. She left our house neat, clean and was so conscientious!! Can't thank her enough!!!”
About: I have 3 years of experience caring for dogs. They are so adorable! I love them because they are the best friends you could ever have. I would love to take care of your best friend and family member Right now I’m home full time and have plenty of time to take care of your baby. The most important thing is that I’m flexible and I can work at your time. I can work in many environments like your home. In my drop-in visits I can walk your dog, comfort him, care for him, and play with him.
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid. Animals are a passion of mine, as well as traveling, music and photography. The slogan Eat, Play, Love is a spin off of my favorite Eat, Pray, Love. I grew up with dogs, cats and bunnies. I loved each & every one of them. When I got older I turned my passion into a form of income. I’m a former kennel-hand at veterinary hospitals. I’m also a former Pet Car Technician at K9 Resorts Luxury Dog Hotel of Roxbury. I’ve been house/ pet sitting for years now but just as a side job & usually by word of mouth. Now I’ve turned it into a full-time business. I’ve dealt with breeds ranging from golden retrievers and labs to rottweilers and pitbulls to chihuahuas and french bulldogs. I believe I am fully capable to properly and lovingly take care of your furry friend(s) ! Currently, this is my full-time job. I may pick up a serving job on weekend nights but for now, I have open availability & I’m really flexible. I care for your furry friends with lots of love. I like to go for walks so I am willing and able to take your pet with me!

About: I have taken. Are of dogs and cats since I was a 10 and professionally as an adult at Morris Animal Inn in Enrichment Department. I work at a cat boarding facility in the mornings and was a senior staff member working with both dogs and cats of all ages and activity levels at Morris Animal Inn. I am very comfortable and experience with cats of all temperaments and dogs of all sizes, breeds, age, and any activity level as an athlete.
“Working with Mea was a pleasure! She was communicative and shared daily photos while we were away (on walks, playing with toys, lounging and snuggling). We know we made the right choice in having Mea dog-sit in our home, as Sadie was relaxed and calm when we returned. We were away for over a week (for the first time!) and this was the best way to minimize her stress and her routines were mostly unchanged. Our trip was unexpectedly extended by 2 days due to a flight cancellation, and Mea was accommodating and flexible and really helped us out in a jam. We would happily trust Mea again with Sadie in the future!”
