Pet Sitting in Athol

“Devon was an excellent sitter for our cat Moose. She fed him and played with him while we were away for a week. Devon was responsible, quick to respond, sent photos of Moose everyday, and wrote about each visit. Good communication and clearly loves what she does! Cats don’t always warm up to people right away, but Moose did when they first met. Devon even came to meet us and Moose before booking which was very helpful! I will definitely be using Devon again!!”

“Absolutely thrilled with the quality of service. I received pictures and updates. My cats were well cared for, and it made being away much more comfortable. I would absolutely recommend.Amanda.”

“Carlea was great with my pets. I felt comfortable leaving my many animals while I was on vacation. I received quick responses when I texted for updates. 100% would recommend.”

“Danielle was great! She was easy to communicate with and provided thorough updates with plenty of pictures while we were away. This made me feel comfortable that our cats were in good hands and well taken care of. I’ll be reaching out again when needing a pet sitter. Thanks Danielle!”

“Jorden was amazing with our large lad for this drop in! This was our first time leaving Whiskey for an extended time and I think Jorden was the perfect person to check in on him. Will definitely be rebooking in the future!”

“Melanie is an outstanding pet lover and loves all animals but especially cats and dogs. She’s always loved and cared for my cats and cares for them as if they were her own. They will have lots of pets and playtime. It is of the utmost importance for her to give excellent customer service and make sure your directions are followed. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her take care of my sometimes grumpy old cat because I know she will make sure she’s loved and watched over exactly like I would.”

“First visit of many- understands the energy of a cattle dog 🐕 played with them the whole time which I appreciate it immensely!”

“Maggie is wonderful! She has watched our three boys on a number of occasions and is always great with them. She is comfortable with animals and has the personal experience to make sure they're happy and healthy! Very highly recommend!”

“Hi Robin K would be an awesome sitter or dog walker. I know she has a love of animals & a great sense of responsibility for caregiving. I would hire her in a minute.”

About: Hi there! I’m Fawn, a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. Growing up, I was the go-to pet sitter for my neighbors, where I looked after a variety of pets, giving them plenty of playtime, exercise, and, of course, cuddles! I’ve been lucky enough to share my life with both big and small dogs, including gentle giants like English and Bull Mastiffs, Rottweilers, and Pit Bulls, as well as smaller pals like Beagles and Chihuahuas. I understand that every pet has their own personality, energy level, and routine, and I’m dedicated to tailoring my care to meet each animal’s unique needs. At home, I’m a pet parent to two wonderful cats and a dog, so I know firsthand how important it is to find a reliable, loving caretaker. While I have a full-time job, I offer flexible pet care services, with a focus on house sitting and some drop-in visits or walks depending on location. I would be thrilled to care for your furry friend! Whether they need a brisk walk, a cozy snuggle, or some good playtime, I’m here to make sure they’re happy, healthy, and safe. I can’t wait to meet your pet and give them the attention they deserve! I work full-time, averaging around 40 hours a week, which means I carefully plan my schedule to ensure I have plenty of time to give each pet the attention they deserve. Pet care fits into my routine by allowing me to focus on providing quality care during my free time—whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends. I genuinely love spending time with animals, so whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply companionship, I’m excited to fill my days with extra furry friends. Caring for pets is a great way for me to unwind and do something I’m passionate about outside of my main job. It also helps me earn some additional income while supporting my personal goals. I’m based near Barre, MA, and frequently travel to Brattleboro, VT, which allows me to offer services across a wide area, providing flexible care for pets in both locations. My main focus is keeping your fur baby safe and happy! I will follow any and all instructions you leave for your animal. I’m very communicative and super reliable.

“She did a great job watching my 2 dogs. Would hire her again! Very easy to get ahold of and my dogs loved her. Highly recommend”

“Kellee did a fantastic job with our kitties. Followed the feeding instructions. They can be difficult since one of our kitties is 19. She went over and above and brought in our mail. We will hire her again.”

About: I have grown up with dogs and when adopting our most recent pup, Jax, I quickly realized he was a pup that required more than just a couple walks a day, so we got into running together daily. I offer dog running or walking and look forward to meeting your fur babe(s)! I am currently available Mondays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays for dog walks, runs and drop-in visits and pet sitting Saturday thru Monday. I currently have limited availability Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays but would be happy to discuss scheduling with you! I am very reliable and I will provide water and treats as needed. I will show up regardless of snow or inclement weather. We can customize walks or runs based on your preference of on vs off leash.

“Bryana has spent a lot of time with my dog, Winnie. Winnie is a 60-pound shepherd mix, and is a very anxious girl which results in a lot of leash reactivity. Bryana has always been very loving and compassionate towards Winnie despite her behavioral issues, and is very patient and calm with her. Winnie loves Bryana deeply and I would recommend Bryana to anyone looking for a loving caregiver for their pet.”

About: I have cared for dogs since I was 12 years old. I have owned a rottweiler, beagle, and a boxer. As an owner of three very different types of dogs, especially the Rottweiler prepared me to take care of and makes it easier for me to understand and carry out the needs of many breeds of dogs, no matter the size. While caring for your pet, I will give him/her the loving and tender care that he will receive, as if he was still at home with you. Trying to fill the void of losing my boxer, Romeo, last year. I am available at all times, morning or night, to answer any and all questions you may have, before, during, or after your dog’s “vacation.”

“Randi is an exceptional pet and human caregiver. She took care of my 98-year-old Grandmother and helped raise and train my puppy who is now 20 months old. She is responsible, loving and dedicated to anything she puts her mind to.”

“Kiersten came to my rescue when I needed last minute help with my dog.”

“Vanessa is a true animal lover, she doesn’t just come to feed animals and leave. She makes sure they are fed, get appropriate amount of attention and all the affection they need. I have cats with medical needs and she gives them pills, insulin injections, and ensures they are all on appropriate food. I know my pets are in great hands with Vanessa around!”

“Laurie and her family have been taking care of my dogs while I go away on vacation for years. The dogs love it there and they are treated as if they are their dogs as well! My husky is shy of everyone but after a few hours she was acting like she belonged right at Laurie’s house because of how patient Laurie and her family were to easing her in. I highly recommend Laurie and her family for your pet’s needs”

A stimulated dog, is a happy dog. I also have experience making healthy homemade cooked meals, as I feed my dogs daily a healthy home cooked diet.
