Squared Away Pest Control is a small, owner-run pest control company based in Pembroke, MA — the company says Guy Raffa, a veteran of the Army National Guard, founded it in 2014 and still runs it himself. It's built for the calls homeowners don't want to sit on: a hornet nest in the wall, carpenter ants working through a basement, ticks and mosquitoes in a wooded yard. Squared Away says it covers Pembroke, Kingston, Marshfield, Cohasset, Plymouth, and Scituate on the South Shore. The rating history is consistent: a 5.0 average across 25 Google ratings, and a broader run of 17 reviews from 2021 through 2025 that comes back almost uniformly positive — a credibility-weighted sentiment score of 0.87 on a scale that tops out at 1. The name that keeps surfacing across that span is Guy's own: reviewers describe him personally taking the call, handling wasp and hornet jobs, carpenter ants, moles, and tick and mosquito programs, then circling back to confirm the problem stayed gone. Across several years of history, that reads as a tight, repeated story rather than a scattered one. Worth knowing before calling: almost all of the outside confirmation here is Google. The business didn't turn up a matching profile on BBB, Best Pick Reports, Houzz, Thumbtack, or Angi, so there's no second directory backing up the reputation — just the company's own site and its Google history. The site states it's licensed and insured, but that claim isn't independently verified here. For a South Shore homeowner dealing with a nest, an ant or tick problem, or ongoing pest maintenance across several properties, Squared Away is worth a call — an owner reviewers describe as answering the phone himself and following up until the problem is actually gone. Ask directly for proof of license and insurance, and confirm what a follow-up visit costs if the first treatment doesn't fully solve it.

    The team at Squared Away could not have done a better job. We had an interior hornets nest that had become quite an issue. The guys at Squared Away showed up promptly and ready to work. They dealt with the nest without any interior or exterior damage. They were sure to follow up to ensure that we were satisfied with their work. Which we were! I would recommend their services to anyone in the south shore area in need of pest control.

    I’ve worked with Squared Away a few times - specifically with Guy. He is knowledgeable and trustworthy and I’ve worked with other pest control companies where that was not the case. He eradicated mole problem I was having. Called him today to remove a bird that flew down my chimney and he went out of his way to help me out last minute- and even when he didn’t have tools handy to open up my ductwork to remove the bird- he quickly got me connected with his network of HVAC guys who could. Highly recommend Guy and his team!

    I was surprised by carpenter ants that showed up in my basement and was making its way to other rooms in my house. I called Squared Away Pest Control and they had someone at my house the same day. They treated the perimeter of my house and some spots in my basement. They said I should see significant improvement in a week and the problem should be gone in two weeks. I saw a significant improvement the day after the treatment and the ants were completely eliminated inside and outside the house after two days. I highly recommend this business. They are so reliable and reasonably priced.

    Guy at squared away is knowledgeable and kind. The products he used on my property for tick and mosquito control have worked well considering we live in the woods. I haven’t found one tick on my dog since.
