Harry had the best time with Michelle! She sent tons of pictures and kept me up to date on how he was doing (he made himself right at home). He got plenty of walks and was fed and tired when we picked him up.

It was our first time leaving Miss Kiki alone with anyone else overnight and we were a bit worried how she’d react. Well, Victoria put me at ease with a meet/greet a couple of days before to get acquainted. She stayed over for two full nights and during that time I received pics of their walks, bath and just hanging out cuddling etc. I would/will call upon Victoria again - she truly put me at ease. Oh, and Miss Kiki loved her too!

Tien-Tien is great with my small dog Beau! I can tell that she loves animals and always treats Beau like he’s her own. I’ve gone on several trips out of town and left my dog in her care and it’s been fabulous every time!

Colin was a fantastic sitter for our Aussie for a week while we were on vacation. He provided daily updates about our pup's day with plenty of photos and was extremely willing to tailor his care for her around the routine she keeps at home with us. His two dogs are extremely sweet, gentle, and welcoming for new dogs to join their pack; it made me happy to know our pup was so thoughtfully cared for while we were gone!

Working with Irina was such a great experience. We really appreciated that she did a meet and greet with us and our dog a few days before, and it helped to make the drop-off process much easier because he was excited to see her. She sent updates in the morning and the evening everyday, and our pup always looked so happy the whole time. He definitely connected with her, he was even a bit hesitant to leave when we came to pick him up. We would certainly recommend Irina to anyone asking for a friendly, compassionate, and diligent sitter.

Donna was absolutely amazing! Our dog is a bit shy but we were amazed at how quickly she made him feel at home and part of the dog group and how comfy he became with her. We will 100% use Donna for dogsitting in the future. She sent so many wonderful photos and videos! Thank you!

Phi was great! Remy really enjoyed his time with Phi and his Ammy girl! I loved receiving the updates and photos of the pups playing, taking walks, and napping together. Even though I was away, I knew Remy was well taken care of and was fully welcomed in Phi’s home. I would definitely have Remy stay with Phi again and I know that Remy would feel right at home.

About: Hello! I'm Rita and a lover of animals. When I was 3 years old, I had my first dog in my family, so my childhood was full of memories of growing up with dogs and having fun together. Now I have 2 Shiba Inus, Umi is in my hometown with my parents and Chuu is with me and my husband here in Boston. Because of this wonderful time, I learned how to take care of dogs and make them feel happy, comfortable, and company when they need me, which is most important for our lovely and needy dogs. I am comfortable with nervous or energetic dogs and I have confidence they will open up to me quickly. My close relatives, families, and friends said that dogs all have a super comforting presence with me. I believe that I establish a bond with dogs easily and I truly am a dog whisperer. My husband and I both work from home, so we have more flexibility to accompany your loved ones. Our neighborhood is pet-friendly, and my apartment complex even has a small dog park on the 5th floor! Plus, a park nearby has two dog parks within a 5-minute walk! So, you can rest assured that your furry friends will have plenty of space to run and play. I promise to treat your pets like my own and spend quality time with them daily. Let me take care of your dogs - you won't regret it! My husband and I are both WFH, I’m currently on a flexible schedule, so I have a plenty of time hanging out with your pups! When I am entrusted with the responsibility of caring for pets either in my own home or that of my clients, I ensure that they are provided with fresh food and water at regular intervals throughout the day. Additionally, I make sure that their living area is kept clean, hygienic, and comfortable for them to live in. Apart from meeting their basic needs, I also spend quality time with them to help them feel loved and cared for. This could include playing with their favorite toys, taking them out for walks, or simply snuggling up with them for some much-needed cuddle time. If I am responsible for the care of a dog, I make sure to take them out regularly for potty breaks and exercise, so that they stay active and healthy. I understand that every pet has its own unique personality, preferences, and needs, and I strive to be attentive to their individual needs and cater to them accordingly. I understand the importance of keeping a clean and healthy environment for your furry friends. If I'm caring for a cat, for example, I make sure to clean their litter box daily to prevent any unpleasant odors or unsanitary conditions.

This was Charlie’s first stay with Mercis. Charlie is very choosy with new boarders. He was very comfortable with Mercis from the first time he met her. We got frequent updates, pictures and videos during the whole stay. Charlie has a great time! We will definitely board Charlie again with her. Highly recommend Mercis for your boarding needs!!

Dayna and Pat were so great with my little guy. Not only were they extremely accommodating but they took the time to acclimate my pups with their adorable dogs. Being a first leaving him with someone I didn't know very well, I left him feeling like he was going to be loved and taken well care of. I was absolutely right and would ask them again to watch my pups. They sent photos of my happy guy every day which made me feel so much better being away from him. The big hearts they have really made me comfortable and pleased with the experience.

I could only leave 5 stars but if I could leave more I would. I have used Ashley & Seth numerous times to watch my fur baby Piper. They made the whole process so easy & put me at ease. They did a meet & greet with me & Piper, send multiple photos & videos the entire time. (They even FaceTimed with me while I was in California for work with a 3 hour time difference!) I just can’t say enough about them, they’re kind, considerate & treat the pets like family. I won’t use anyone else! You are doing yourself a disservice by not booking with them!! 100/100 Recommend!

Rex isn't always the easiest dog to take on walks but Emily did a great job with him and took great care of him when we had to find a last-minute sitter. Easy to communicate with and sent lots of pictures which is always appreciated!
