Hey there! I'm Cecile. Growing up I watched my older sisters bring home strays and care for them. I learned from them how to tell if a dog is happy, scared, or in pain. I learned how to calm an anxious dog with a soft voice and that dogs that are more vocal, change their posture, or are not so interested in food, may be in pain or sick. I also learned how much fun it is to play with a dog. I am enrolled in the Veterinary Assistant Program at Middlesex Community College to learn more about the animals I love. I will receive my certificate February 14, 2018.

Hi, I'm Devorah! I love dogs, hiking and just being outdoors - no matter the weather. I've been petsitting for ten years for several happy, repeat customers, but I would like more clients. I currently regularly sit-for/walk three pitbull-mixes that I adore. I love to bring them to hiking trails where we can travel by pack.
