Definitely want to book Anna again! My little orange old lady cat was very well taken care of. Traveling when you have a senior animal is stressful, but Anna was thorough and Marmalade obviously liked her!

Dan has been awesome with the pups! He was very responsive and flexible for the initial meet and greet and has been responsive to all drop in requests since, including the last minute ones! He goes out of his way to make sure our timid dog is comfortable and that both dogs get lots of attention.

Violet is competent, reassuring and full of kindness. We have an old dog on a special diet, and an old cat who needs medications, both deeply loved and important to our family but we couldn't take them on our trip. Violet was right there for us, no worries about special instructions, brought in the mail and watered the plants too. When we came home to our pets it was clear they bonded with her and had something of a vacation themselves. We are happy to recommend Violet for pet care in your home.

Catherine is amazing! She has taken care of our cat twice and both times has been so thoughtful and kind. She not only makes sure he is fed but also gives him plenty of interaction and play time. Always sends great updates and photos and has managed his medication with ease. Very responsible, easy to communicate with, and proactive. Highly recommend!

About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was 8 years old! I love her and love animals so much that hanging out and taking care of them is my passion! I am currently a full time student, but that doesn’t stop me from making time to hangout and take care of animals! School is very important to me but also stressful, so taking care of animals and spending time with them helps me relax and take a breath from the stress. I do live full time at school! So having your animal stay with me unfortunately would not be an option :(. However, I do have a vehicle on campus which would allow me to take care of your pet right at your home! This can also avoid stress for your animal and make he/she more comfortable in their own environment!

About: I have been dog-sitting since I was an 8th grade and have been a loyal dog-sitter and walker in my neighborhood for ten + years. I have experience in training puppies and have strong fitness abilities to help active dogs! I am currently a work from home intern so I have lots of time to care for other dogs and grant them the exercise and care they need. I can work with any kind of housing/ pet sit up that you have in your house! I am very flexible and have lots of experience dealing with different kinds and sizes of dogs.

Erin has been a part of my life for many years. Erin possesses so many wonderful qualities, which includes kindness, respectfulness, and honesty. Erin has known our golden doodle Reagan since she was a puppy. Reagan is always excited to see Erin as she knows she will be greeted with lots of love and attention. Our dog is now nine and needs a little extra care, and we trust Erin completely to watch her when we are in need of a dog sitter. I would highly recommend Erin to friends and family for their pet care needs.

Beatrice has grown up around dogs, always having at least one as a pet. She adores and plays with them when she can. She is very attentive to their needs and spoils them with affection. When she is home from school she is more exited to see the dogs than her mom and dad. I could not give her a stronger recommendation to take care of your pets.

About: I have been a pet owner all my life, and have years of experience caring for the cats and dogs of friends and family members. I provide personalized, loving attention to every pet, and especially love going on walks, playtime, and snuggles. I will always prioritize your pets safety and happiness. I will treat every furry friend like my own and would welcome the opportunity to meet yours :) I am currently a college student but graduating at the end of December 2024. I will remain in the Amherst area in the Spring and I will have a lot of afternoon and nighttime availability, specifically on weekends. Due to the undecided nature of my job status next semester I do not know my exact hours, but I am very flexible. I provide attentive, in-home care tailored to your pet’s needs and routine. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or medication, I ensure they’re comfortable and happy in their own space. I treat your home with respect and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!

About: I’ve had my own dog Sully since I was a senior in college! I love going on walks everyday, so it’s a major win win to reach my goals AND let your dog out for exercise when you need it! I’m currently working part time, so my schedule can be flexible in finding a time to help you and your dogs! Whether it is a short bathroom break or longer walk for your energetic pup, I’m up for the adventure! I have my 9 year old dog at home, so your dog can be socialized, or it can just be a one on one walk!
