Dog Sitters in Newtonville, MA

Happy to have Heather stay at ours while we were away! Turned out our friends took wee Jet while we were gone, but we wanted to still be able to offer heather a place to stay, lovely person through and through! Look forward to staying in touch and having paths cross again. X

James and Lydia were fantastic sitters! I was flustered after a cancellation and they were understanding and considerate in ensuring me that my worries were over. They worked to accommodate my schedule and I felt reassured having them keep an eye on everyone while I was out of town. Communication was excellent and they kept the house tidy. I'd happily welcome them back!

Amanda and Kaitlyn were wonderful sitters for our elderly cat, Chloe. They left the apartment clean and were responsive during planning and the sit itself.

Rachel and Toluwaleke were incredible sitters and would love to host them again. They left the place incredibly clean, the dogs are still missing them & have been well played with, and they were exceptionally communicative.

Mari was fantastic! She communicated ahead of time to get as much information as possible about my cats’ preferences and needs and to ensure our schedules were all aligned. During her stay, she shared the cutest pictures and videos. My cats loved her so much! It was so nice to see that my cats were well cared for. My partner stopped by in the evening before I got home and was so impressed by how clean the apartment was and how nicely Mari left everything. She even washed the sheets and made the bed! I would welcome her back any time!

Megan was a great sitter for Charlie! She sent us lots of updates and photos throughout her stay and I felt like our baby was in good hands the whole time she was watching him. Would love to have her petsit again!

Loved having Miranda taking care of Dante. She was kind, reliable, and very playful with my young dog. She is a wonderful and energetic person and a great communicator. I highly recommend her.

Ifat and Yaniv were great sitters and both of my pets were clearly l well looked after. They were def-reliant, communicative, very friendly and responsible.

Jen took great care of my cat Catara! She communicated well, sent me regular updates on how my cat was doing, and gave her interactive playtime which is very important for my cat.

This was my first time having a stranger stay at my place, so this was a big deal for me. I had a good feeling about Kyle from the start and was excited about the idea of helping a fellow Bostonian see the unparalleled city of Austin. Like me, he works from home in the healthcare industry. I had the privilege of meeting Kyle on the first day of the sit. I found him to be friendly, funny, and affable. As this was my first time having a sitter, I texted Kyle details of the apartment and pet care as I thought of them. I appreciated him baring with me through this as I am working to now compile a user-friendly guide. Kyle was sure to communicate frequently. He updated me often about his arrival and departure and also sent pictures of himself with Gypsy during the stay. He also gave me a heads up about having someone over. The only questions he had were about the laundry, which evidently was the one thing I didn't go over. He was self-sufficient and attentive to the fine details of the apartment and the care of my cat. Kyle relieved the stress of stress of separation anxiety my cat goes through when left alone, therefore relieving me of inevitable guilt. My cat seemed to be at ease when I returned home. I could tell she missed me, but she did not seem stressed whatsoever! As Kyle promised, the apartment was not only just as clean as I left it, but cleaner. I have a bad habit of stuffing my recycling underneath the sink and procrastinating the removal. I was pleasantly surprised to find Kyle emptied the whole thing. In this he must have discovered I'm a beer drinker because he also left me a 6 pack! Not only this, but he left a bunch of food, which is great because I'll eat anything you leave in my apartment. Would absolutely have Kyle again. Highly recommend him to give you and your pets ease when traveling.

Connor was a fantastic sitter. He played and interacted with our pets a ton which we really appreciate. He took care of our pets so well that they didn't seem to miss us that much when we got home. He was very self-sufficient and left the place just like he found it. We highly recommend Connor and would invite him to sit for us again!

Mariya, her husband and young son took care of our animals (horse, goat, chickens, cats, fish, turtle) for two weeks. They all pitched in and quickly learned how to take care of all the animals. Mariya was in touch daily via text with updates and/or questions. Her questions gave me confidence that she was concerned with doing the right things, rather than just guessing. It took our cats a little while to get used to the small human, but Mariya’s son was always gentle with them. We returned to healthy animals and a house in great condition. I highly recommend Mariya as a capable pet and house sitter.
