Dog Sitters in Ayer, MA

Harriet was an amazing house and petsitter! She communicated daily and followed our instructions to a "T'"Our house was sparkling clean when we got home, and she and her husband took the best care of our senior dog. We had no worries, and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing they were there.

It was a pleasure having Sam and Joe. We felt completely at ease from the start and came home to find our house spotless. They communicated well, we received regular updates and we saw our pup was in good hands. They arrived the night before our departure and went above and beyond by giving us a ride to the airport. They are very easygoing and kind. They also took our pup to the beach on their day off, which she totally loved. Pup's happy, we're happy, everyone happy. Would definitely have them back!

Kathleen was a fantastic sitter and Olive and Noodle miss her already. She was great about sending pictures and updates - never had to ask anything, she always beat us to it. She didn't assume anything that wasn't clearly stated - always asked us beforehand. She was great with our dogs - they immediately bonded with her and didn't want to leave her side. We really appreciated being able to go away and not worry about our pets' welfare, we knew immediately they were being so well taken care of. We hope to host Kathleen again soon!!

Maureen was a pleasure to work with from the start. She communicated well with us and tok excellent care of our home and two cats. She is very neat and considerate. A++ sitter highly recommended

Laura was great! She communicated well prior to visit and while I was away. I was happy to get updates about Trixie during the week. Trixie is a challenge (blind deaf and elderly) but Laura did really well with making Trixie feel comfortable and at ease while I was gone. Laura respected my home and took great care to be tidy and leave it as it was when she arrived. I’d highly recommend Laura for any of your pet/home sitting needs!

Tabi and Josh were an absolute pleasure -- both personally and as house sitters and pet sitters. Shortly after we left, Tabi smelled gas and handled the situation quickly and smartly. With the help of neighbors, she contacted the gas company which verified there was a gas leak. Tabi contacted us to approve a plumber coming out and we worked things out with her and the plumber. It was quite an inconvenience for her and Josh but not much bother for us. They assured us they were fine and had no complaints. We greatly appreciated their initiative despite feeling terrible that they'd had to deal with the problem. Our 12-year-old dog seemed relaxed and happy when we got home. The house was neat and clean and the plants indoors and out watered and healthy. Tabi and Josh are easy and self sufficient. They both have an admirable work ethic but enjoyed being in a new city and took advantage of all it had to offer. They are curious and interested in new things and places and have an infectious energy. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Any homeowner and pet lover would be lucky to have them as guests.

A wonderful job. will use her again

Max did a great job. She connected with our dog from the first day and provided excellent care and support. She also took care of our house and maintained communication throughout our time away. We give her the highest recommendation!

Monica took wonderful care of our pets, in particular our senior dog who requires more work than our younger dog. She was communicative and reached out when questions came up and we felt very comfortable knowing that she was was taking great care of them in our absence! She left the house as we left it and we were very appreciative of the care she took with Baxter and Ruby and our home.

Meredith was a great pet sitter. She kept us informed every day, took great pictures and videos of our pets, and left our home spotless and our pets happy and clearly well cared for. We’d definitely invite her back!

Elizabeth was an amazing pet sitter. From the first phone conversation we had I liked Elizabeth, felt completely assured having her in my home and taking care of my two cats. She went above and beyond any expectations I might have had. She genuinely seemed to love and appreciate the quirkiness of my two babies... it really enhances one's time away to get texts and photos that really convey a pet sitter is having fun at the sit. One of my cats is an outdoor cat and it can be challenging to get him inside only because I don't have a cat door. Elizabeth went far above and beyond what was necessary to make sure Max wasn't ever outside overly long. In fact, he seemed to come inside far more with her here than when it's just me. She played with both of them and on her watch they started playing together for the first time. The house was clean and tidy upon my return and I would welcome Elizabeth back any time. You can't go wrong asking her to sit for you!

We were pleased to have Kathleen care for Casey and our home. She was clear about her travel plans and didn't require any assistance from us. She arrived as planned. She texted several pictures of Casey throughout the stay. It was clear from the pictures that he was comfortable with her. Everything was clean and in order when we returned home and Casey appeared to have been well cared for. We have no hesitation recommending Kathleen for your house sit.
