Loving, professional pet care in Boston

Hi, I'm Kate

I am lucky to measure time by the animals in my life. I entered the pet care business at the age of seven, volunteering my afternoons at the family kennel. In college, I spent them studying animal physiology and behavior. ​​I'm excited to run Maxalily after pet sitting for five years, walking rescues for four summers, fostering cats for three months, raising chicks for two weeks, and cuddling pigs one Sunday.

"Kate was a great sitter who took care of my senior (19) kitty with special needs requiring daily medication and lots of attention, as well as my four backyard chickens! She left the house clean and even washed the sheets she slept on. She was very responsive and communicative with me throughout the whole four day house sitting visit. I would recommend her as your next sitter."

Maxalily was my dear childhood Chug (Chihuahua-Pug)

We adopted him with the name Max, but he looked like a Lily to me
