About: I've been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember! I've been helping family, friends, and neighbors with pet care and pet sitting since I was in middle school, and I absolutely love being able to meet and care for all different kinds of pets. I have plenty of experience walking, feeding, caring for, and simply existing beside dogs and cats alike! I currently have two rowdy dogs myself so I'm ready for any chores that gets thrown my way :) I'm currently working on my Master's degree in engineering so I have plenty of time to provide the care your pets need! My schoolwork allows me to be more flexible with when and where I can help out. Safety is my first priority! I make sure to keep pets away from dangers on walks and pet sitting sessions, always keeping a close eye out. I have great attention to detail and I'll make sure to give your pet lots of love!
“Jennifer was excellent and took great care of my cat Franklin. She followed all my directions and was very sweet to him. I received lots of pictures which always makes me happy. Highly recommend!!”


“I booked Linzi for my cats because I needed someone who could give SubQ fluids to my cat with kidney disease and provide lots of attention because I'm a worrier and accidently booked my vacation a day too long...and I'm so glad I did! She came over a few days before to practice giving my cat her fluids, learn where everything was, and meet the kitties. She was very communicative, provided great pictures, cleaned up puke, and provided a lot of attention and play time to the kitties. Will definitly use her again and highly recommend her!”
“Liz is great! So communicative and thorough in how to take care of the pups. During the visit, numerous updates were provided and was super detailed about how everything went. Would definitely recommend her :)”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, but my true passion for pet care grew when I adopted my Yorkshire Terrier six years ago. Coming from a home where he wasn't walked regularly, he was quite shy and anxious. Through consistent love and patience, I’ve helped him blossom into a happy, confident dog. Beyond my own 10lb companion, I’m also recently adopted a cat and I’m very comfortable with high-energy breeds. I have extra room in my house to play with them separately and I frequently sit for friends' Australian Shepherds and Jack Russell Terriers. Whether your pet is a tiny senior who needs a gentle touch or an active pup who needs a long game of fetch, I adapt my care to meet their specific personality and energy levels. Available All Day: Fri & Saturday Available other days: (mostly afternoon and night) Between 1:30pm - 8:00pm. This is temporary schedule before May. Will be more flexible since May 1st. Safety is my top priority because I know my Yorkie is my family, and yours is too. When hosting pets in my home, I maintain a calm, structured environment where my resident dog provides a friendly, low-stress presence. I am diligent about leashing and double-checking gates during outdoor time. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I strictly follow your established routines to minimize any "parent is away" anxiety. I’m experienced in reading canine body language to ensure every interaction is positive and safe. You can expect frequent photo updates and clear communication so you can have total peace of mind while you're away.
“Elizabeth took such great care of my cat, Petie. He has special needs and can be quite the handful, but Elizabeth was really professional in how she handled him. She was very communicative throughout the whole process, provided tons of cute pics, and played and cuddled Petie to his little heart’s content. I’d really recommend hiring her if you are able! Thanks for everything, Elizabeth!”

“Carol checked on my cat twice a day while I was away for a week. She was wonderful! She gave him the attention he needed and kept me updated with pictures and details of his day. Carol is reliable and attentive!”

“Melissa was super helpful checking in on our cat, Chicky! We ended up making Thanksgiving plans closer to the actual holiday, and had to book a Rover on shorter notice than usual. Melissa was super responsive when we initially reached out, and communicative throughout our trip. She was very thoughtful when thinking of ways to help make Chicky less lonely while we were away. We highly recommend Melissa! 😊”

About: I been dog/cat and reptile sitting for 15 years for friends and family, I love them like my own and excited to work with animals again! I like to go above and beyond and take dogs on extra walks, ensure they are comfortable and feel safe! I love going on walks daily so I’ll always take my dog out to get exercise and care for my little guy (his names gizmo and he’s a big little baby) I always put the animals first and make sure they are situated and cared for by having lovings, attention and made sure they feel safe and comfortable!
“Best. Catsitter. Ever!! Alexandra did a exceptional job looking after my two kitties while I was visiting family for the holidays. This was my first time leaving them behind so I was nervous, but I was quickly put at ease by Alexandra’s adorable pictures and hilarious recaps of the visits. The kitties warmed right up to her, probably because she was so generous with the playtime, treats, and love. She is dependable and reliable — she always showed up on time, stayed for the duration of the visit, and sent me plenty of updates. I came back to a tidy home and two happy cats. If you’re an anxious cat mom like me, Alexandra is the catsitter for you! 10/10!! ❤️”

“Jenny is fantastic - Super responsive and provides great (and prompt!) updates after each visit with lots of photos so you can see your babies...She is great with cats - Our two boys are usually very skittish and hide and they were both out and about when she was here and one even let her pet him...so she has a great kitty vibe :). Would not hesitate to use her the next time we are away!”

About: My fiancé and I are truly dog lovers. Over the past 12 years we have had many dogs in our care for various length of time. We have three of our own currently two Italian greyhounds and a female Basenji. I also consistently sit for a family friend’s small terrier, she is a senior girl with us 2-3 times per week. Considering the abundance of dogs in our lives, I would consider myself extremely experienced to handle any dog at any age with any type of potential issues. Dog sitting aside, I am probably a more experienced dog walker than anything else as I walk my three guys three times a day all at the same time. Contact me if you need any help I will take excellent care of your pet , walking , sitting , whatever you need ! With three dogs in our home, I am basically on the clock with them 24/7. For the most part, I am available at all times if you need walking or sitting Our dogs are basically treated like royalty, and will do the same for your pets. I am available for walks up to an hour , feedings and whatever other necessary care comes up. If you need a sitter out home is smoke free and extremely clean and your pet will have an amazing time with us.
About: I was lucky enough to be born with the animal lover trait. Even more lucky to be blessed with such amazing companions in my life to make me want to help take care of yours! I understand they’re not pets but rather family and I’ll do whatever it takes to have them comfortable and happy with me :) I am currently in college so my schedule revolves around school right now monday,wednesday- 12:30-3:00pm 5:00-whenever tuesday, Thursday- before 3:00pm and after 6:30 friday- after 12:30pm sat, sunday- anytime In my parents home I take our labrador out and play whatever she wants in that moment, most of the time we spend cuddling together, but if there’s one thing about me i’m constantly making conversation with them haha. i’ll feed her accordingly two times a day.
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, all with different personalities, so I’m very comfortable adapting to each dog’s unique needs. I’m experienced with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving dogs the attention and patience they need to feel safe and happy. In addition, my neighbors have trusted me to board and care for their dogs while they’re away, so I understand how important it is to provide reliable, attentive care and keep pets comfortable in a home environment. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine! I work a 9–5, but I’m remote on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, feeding, and spending quality time with your dog throughout the day. Even on my busier days, I can adjust my schedule as needed, and I’m able to work from a client’s home if that helps keep your pet comfortable. I always make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need, no matter the day. I try my best to keep their normal schedules that the pups are used to! If your dog stays with me, they’ll get plenty of attention, walks, and opportunities to get outside. I love going for walks so so we can explore the neighborhood or go to a nearby park for them to get fresh air and playtime. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I stick closely to their usual routine to keep them comfortable. If you have a fenced yard, I’m happy to spend time playing with them and using their favorite toys. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, I make sure they get lots of love, exercise, and attention so they feel safe and happy.
About: Simply put, I cherish dogs. They're pure-hearted creatures who deserve all the love and care in the world. I grew up with dogs (Gold Retriever, Shih Tzu's and Beagle) for majority of my life so I'm adept, cautious and careful when they're under my care. In one of my profile pictures, which was taken many years ago when I was younger, you’ll see me with my Shih Tzu. I care deeply. I've walked and watched over a wide range of different breeds. Whether it's walking, house sitting or engaging with them in a fun & social setting. I believe I possess a strong mindset that enables my ability to care for these animals. I take this type of job very seriously because of the responsibility at hand. Dogs are such loving animals who look at their owner as their whole entire world. It's extremely satisfying to know the difference one individual can make. I truly cherish that.
About: I live in a single family home, with my husband, toddler & our 5 year old pup, Maverick. He is a border collie/blue heeler. He is pretty high energy, so he requires a lot of exercise. He is not territorial of his toys, and he enjoys always having a buddy around! We have a small outdoor space and are super close to the beaches/dog parks in Winthrop. I will follow the same rules you have for your dogs at home, in regards to being on furniture & what types of food they eat. Either my husband or I are always home during the day, so we are able to take breaks, as needed, to take your dog(s) out to play/get exercise/go to the bathroom. Currently my husband has full flexibility so would be the primary care giver to your pet. I would ask up front if it's ok to bring our dog Maverick on our walks, check in's. If there are places where your dog can be off leash I am more than happy to go here for a walk. If at our home, we have a small fenced in area where dogs can easily go to the bathroom. There are plenty of toys to go around and comfy places to sleep. Maverick loves to show other dogs his bones and warms up to every dog we’ve ever watched.
About: I have been an animal lover since I was a kid. Though I cannot afford my own dog right now, I am always looking to hang out with dogs any chance I can get! My roommate has a Bernese Mountain Dog who is the most mellow, sweetest pup ever (she is 8 months old). I assist in feeding her, walking her, playing with her, and just keeping her company as my roommates schedule is more demanding than mine. I love going for long walks, (or runs), playing fetch, and just keeping dogs company. I think I am a great candidate due to my experience with animals and my love for them. I am excited for the day that I can provide a home to my own dog!

Elizabeth did a great job watching our three cats. She was very patient with their different personalities and a huge help managing the specific medication routine for one of our kitties. We appreciated the consistent updates and photos she sent after each visit. The cats were clearly comfortable with her, and we would be happy to book her again!

Melissa took great care of my cats and was very attentive to their needs. This was my second time booking with her, and everything went smoothly again. She was easy to reach and responded quickly whenever I had a question or new request. I’d definitely book with her again. Thank you Melissa!!

Annaliese has been petsitting my 2 cats for a few months now and it gives me such peace of mind to have someone who takes such good care of them! She is so thoughtful and on point and takes amazing pictures of my cats. I can tell she really cares about them and they love her.

I would like to say that Lynzie saved us when someone that was supposed to watch our dog backed out on us. Our dog and cat both took to her right away and we will use her again in the future. If you are looking for someone that is trustworthy and professional we would recommend Lynzie!

I was away for a little over two weeks, and Lolo took wonderful care of my cat, Murphy. She sent me lots of pictures that clearly showed how happy and content he was, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Lolo also kept me informed about any shedding or minor issues like hairballs or throw-up, and regularly checked in about his overall health and wellness. Her communication and attentiveness were incredibly appreciated, especially during such a long trip. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Murphy.

Amanda is fantastic! She was so attentive and caring for my 2 kitties while I was out of town. She’s very responsive, sent lots of pics and I can tell she truly cares about their well being. Def recommend & I will book her again in the future! Thanks Amanda!
