Madison was a fantastic sitter for our cat Cato! She met with us in person prior to us going away and was super friendly and considerate. She took great care of Cato while we were away and sent us fantastic fun pictures as updates on him for each of her check ins. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter especially if you have a cat ?

Absolutely amazing, Christina was a delight to have. This was our meet and greet to see how my dogs would react and our Leo being a friendly hyper boy who jumps she reacted greatly and she used proper commands/reactions with him. She handled it very well. Honey laid by her as she was calm and patient with her. Honey gave her little potty dance and showed Christina the type of dog she truly is! We will absolutely bring Christina back and we appreciate her and her patience. She was kind and respectful of my feelings/wants for my animals. Thank you again and we can’t wait to see you again!

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with a wide range of dog breeds, ages, and sizes. I’ve cared for my own family’s dogs over the years, as well as pets belonging to families I’ve babysat for, which has included house sitting and overnight stays. From energetic puppies to senior dogs needing a gentler touch, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs and personality. Being a college athlete in off season, I am still in training, however I have the choice on when I train making my day to day schedule more flexible. I also work a part time job that allows me to pick what days and times I want to work, allowing me to make other commitments. When caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s—I treat every animal like they’re part of the family. I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs. In a client’s home, I aim to maintain their familiar environment and schedule to reduce stress. This includes feeding them according to their usual times and diet, providing fresh water, administering any medications as directed, and giving them plenty of attention, affection, and playtime.

About: Hello, I’m Chelsea! I’ve owned pets all my life, and last year added a puppy to the family! I am often the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, and I love learning about dog training techniques and activities that stimulate the doggie brain! I live in Amherst and have a very flexible schedule, so let me know when your pet and I can spend some time together! My days are wide open- ideal for lunchtime drop ins or morning/afternoon walks. I am very flexible and should be able to accommodate your needs- plus the needs of your pet! I have a fenced in yard and a playful pup at home. In your hone, I’m sure to follow all your instructions to a T and treat your space like my own. I always go at your pet’s pace and match my energy with theirs. WEATHER POLICY: For temperatures below 10 degrees (or wind chill below 10 degrees) or above 100 degrees, I will take your dog out to potty and then return inside with them for the remainder of our time. This keeps me and your dog safe!

About: I have had a pet for all 30 years of my life! My love for animals continued to grow and I am fortunate enough to have 3 cats and 1 doggo of my own! I have pet sit for a few senior dogs and love giving them the love and attention they need! If it has paws, I’ll love them for sure! I am currently working part time at a school and have plenty of free time! I am fortunate enough to create my own schedule so I will be able to make plenty of time for your fur baby! I have a fully fenced in yard and one young puppy to keep your fur baby company! I also have three curious cats who will be happy to get a sniff in to say hello! I live in a great neighborhood where everyone walks their dogs!
