House sitting in Boston

Wonder what it's like to live in one of the USA's largest and oldest cities? Find out first-hand by house sitting in Boston.

From Burmese cats to Boston terriers, animals across the city are looking for a pet lover like you to stay with them while their owners are away. In exchange for keeping them happy at home, you can enjoy free accommodation in and around Boston. House sitting could take you on a dog walk along the famous Freedom Trail, taking in the historical sights, or sampling seafood specialities at the Seaport District - saving some for your new feline friend, of course.

Boston Public Garden

Spend time at the most beautiful public garden on your Boston house sitting adventure. The Victorian-era garden is a peaceful location for bonding with your new furry friends while enjoying the lush oasis. The Public Garden is in the heart of Boston and permits leashed dogs. As you stroll around the park, watch out for Make Way for Ducklings statues. Alternatively, you can take a ride on the infamous Swan Boats or admire the real swans at the lagoon in the park. You can also spend the day on a picnic enjoying the park's tranquillity as your pets play on the grass.

Boston Harbor

Are you house sitting in Boston during summer? Let your four-legged friends tag along for a cruise to Boston Harbor. They can join harbor cruises, whale watching adventures, or ferry rides. The Boston water taxi gives you a chance to explore the islands during winter since the boats are heated. If you want to paddle down the Charles River, rent a kayak or canoe. 

Carson and Crane Beaches

While the Boston weather isn't the best, the city offers the best beaches in New England. On your Boston house sitting trip, ensure you visit Carson Beach. You can take walks along the beach with your pet friends on a leash. The attractions near the beach also increase its appeal. The South Boston Bark Park is seven minutes from the beach and provides a beautiful dog park. The park is dedicated to dogs with off-leash areas and a water fountain for pets to hydrate. The Crane Beach is 40 minutes away from the city and gives your dogs a space to run around off-leash and play in the sand.

Freedom Trail

Looking to spice up your walks with your furry friends? Enjoy the famous Freedom Trail on your Boston house sitting trip. The historical Freedom Trail runs over two miles from the Boston Common to the Bunker Hill Monument in Charlestown. The trail passes through 16 historical sites, and you can take a self-guided walk or join a tour. The walk takes a few hours, but it can take the whole day if you visit each historic site.
