Compassionate care for nervous pets. - Upton, MA

Member since Sep 2025

A&S Pet Care’s mission is to provide compassionate, fear-free care that prioritizes each pet’s emotional and physical well-being. We specialize in supporting anxious, reactive, and special-needs pets by building trust, respecting boundaries, and meeting animals where they are so they feel safe, understood, and cared for in their own homes.

Our pet business journey began when we struggled to find a pet sitter for our dogs who truly understood the needs of anxious and reactive dogs. We saw firsthand how limited options were for pets who required extra patience and specialized care. That’s why we created A&S Pet Care: to provide the compassionate, personalized care that all pets deserve.

We have been so fortunate to meet some incredible pet caregivers along the way and proudly employ a team of 5 Pet Care Professionals as part of our care team.

Because when you can’t be there, you deserve to trust that your pets are in safe, loving hands. We can’t wait to meet your pets and give them the same love we give our own!
