Boston university cat sitting
Cat sitting for Boston's 250k+ university and medical population
Northeastern co-ops, BU semester breaks, Harvard reading periods, MIT IAP, Tufts clinical rotations, MGH and Longwood medical residencies. Petme cat sitters know the calendar.
Boston has 250k+ students across 30+ colleges, plus the densest medical-resident population in the US (Longwood Medical Area + MGH + Tufts Medical). Cat sitting demand is heavily university and medical-driven: semester breaks, exam weeks, co-op rotations, sabbaticals, fellowship transitions, and on-call shift coverage. Petme Boston sitters specialize per school cluster, with multi-cat handling, lockbox-on-stoop access, and medical-needs administration built into the standard pricing.
