Dog Walking Belchertown

“Wow! Katie is the best! We feel so lucky to have her caring for your dog. She is reliable, clearly loves and understands dogs, provides thorough updates with pictures and communicates well along the way! We really appreciate her attention to detail and feel grateful we found her. We get excited for our dog on the days we know she is coming to walk him. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great caretaker for their pet.”

About: Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’m an Animal Science student with professional experience caring for dogs and a lifetime of experience caring for cats. I offer care in client’s homes through drop-in visits, walks and extended drop-ins. I spent 2 years working at a dog rescue, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning kennels, exercising dogs, monitoring their health and behavior, and helping nervous or shy dogs feel comfortable. Working with rescue dogs taught me how to read body language, stay calm in new situations, and provide patient, compassionate care. I’ve also been a cat owner since I was eight years old and have had four cats throughout my life. My senior cat became disabled later in life, so I have experience with medication, grooming, litter box care, and adapting routines for pets with special needs. That experience gave me a special place in my heart for senior animals and pets who need a little extra patience. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I also love keeping owners updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! As a full-time Animal Science student, I schedule pet care around my classes and keep my availability updated on Rover. I only accept bookings I can fully commit to, and once I accept a booking your pet becomes a priority. I offer reliable drop-in visits and dog walking, and I’m happy to spend extra time with your pets when needed to make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I provide care in my clients’ homes through drop-in visits, walks, and extended drop-ins so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, and any special instructions. I always treat my clients’ homes with respect, make safety my top priority, and provide regular photo and message updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I’ve grown up with a hyper yellow lab and have dog walked throughout my life. I love long walks and can be trusted with all types of dogs Im a senior at UMass Amherst who loves dogs and loves to walk. I have a lot of free time which I’ve been looking to fill with a fun job I treat everyone’s pet like they are my own. Being away from my childhood dog has made me miss having a pet even more. I’ll be sure to take care of the dogs well and ensure they have a fun walk

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was a kid, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. I recently joined the Massachusetts National guard in order to achieve my bachelor’s degree debt free, I plan on eventually transferring to the CT National Guard and joining their Veterinary Corps. I currently own a high-energy Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix I rescued, and I’ve also cared for an elderly Shih Tzu who needed lots of special attention and patience. I’m very work-oriented, reliable, and people have told me I’m great with customer service. Neighbors, friends, and family often count on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I truly love every moment of it. As a full-time student, I’ve built a schedule that gives me plenty of time for pet care. I also work at a doggy daycare in Avon, CT, so my work schedule usually varies throughout the week. I’m happy to communicate my availability ahead of time and work with each pet parent to find a schedule that works best for everyone. I’m generally more flexible on days I’m not working and can often accommodate evenings and weekends. I treat every pet like they’re my own and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. Working at a doggy daycare has given me experience handling dogs with all different personalities, energy levels, ages, and needs. I’m attentive to their body language and routines and always make sure they get the appropriate amount of exercise, attention, rest, food, and potty breaks. I also understand that every dog is different, so I’m happy to follow each pet’s specific routine and their owner’s instructions.

“Incredible job! Super friendly, and my dog absolutely loves her. Will definitely be re booking!”

About: My first responsibility I had as a 4 year old was feeding our family dog, Shannon. Since then, I not only helped feed, walk and care for my own pets, but have helped others as well. Whether it was classroom fish, or boisterous double-dog walks, I always love making a pet's day brighter. I take pets' well-being seriously and like to do all I can to make your pet feel at home and worry-free in your absence. During the school year, I have limited availability during evenings and weekends. During the summer and school vacations, I am available weekdays, weeknights, and on most weekends. I offer drop-ins for cats, dogs, bunnies, and other small animals. I also offer dog walking. I am an avid athlete so I am happy to take on energized dogs who like long walks. I have experience administering oral medication and injections.

About: Hi, I'm Marla! I've always been an animal person, with having a cat of my own as well as two dogs, so I'm experienced with taking care of animals. Seeing pets is always a way to brighten my day, they bring me lots of joy! I've pet sat many dogs and a few reptiles! I'm looking to pet sit dogs, cats, fish & other animals as well. I know people have their own lives and need some assistance in taking care of their animals, and I am always here to help! If you need someone to walk your dog, feed your animals, clean up after them, or even just keep them entertained, I am the girl for you! I am a college student, so I am available from May 24th through August 31st. I've worked with animals practically my whole life, since my family has had cats and dogs since I was young. I started taking care of other animals in the past few years, this past summer I pet sat for many families. I’m experienced with pet sitting puppies, as I pet sat for two puppies recently. I’m also experienced with older dogs and giving animals medication. In my spare time, I read, hike, hangout with friends, or just watch a new movie/show. Excited to work with you! I am available practically everyday this summer to pet sit your animals! I do go back to college in late August, so I’m available until then. I prefer pet-sitting over boarding animals. I’m also comfortable with overnight care. I make sure the pets are happy, entertained, and fed. I clean their food bowls after each meal to ensure safety and cleanliness. I provide as many walks as the owner feels is appropriate. I’m also comfortable taking care of accidents, as I’ve pet sat puppies that were learning to be potty trained and have pets of my own.

About: All my life I’ve had a variety of different animals all including dogs, cats, birds, turtles, rabbits, etc. You name it, I have owned it. In some time spans all at the same time. I would love to take all this experience that I was fortunate enough to obtain throughout the years and bring it to your home! I am currently enrolled at the Western New England University. At the time being as I am on summer break I am looking for something to do to take up all this newly acquired time. As well as make some extra money to go towards my tuitions. Since I have a love for animals I thought this was the perfect opportunity for me. At the moment I currently have 4 dogs, 3 cats, 2 rabbits and a cocktail. As you can imagine yes they can certainly be a handful but I couldnt imagine my life without them. Each and everyone being on a schedule of their own which is always never a problem.

“Pierson was very kind and gentle with Briar. She always checked in with me to make sure we were on the same page regarding the walking schedule. I highly recommend her.”

Between the two of us your pet will get so much love, cuddles & exercise. We guarantee a level of attention and care that I feel confident your pet(s) won’t get anywhere else; between this and Rover taking it’s fee our prices might be on the high side but they reflect our level of personalized and professional level of care. I also just want to add that our love for dogs extends to all animals so cats etc are all welcome to come hang with us :) Important Note: if you are reaching out for house sitting my husband and I only take those if we both are allowed to stay the night.
