House Sitting in Charlemont

“Ash was a GREAT house and pup took care of Whitney for 10 days while we were away with tons of walks, meals and treats, cuddles and rubs and overnight stays, long walks and visits with her best dog friend, and even handled a contractor visit and an appliance installation! Both our home and our pup were in great shape when we got back- would recommend Ash for six stars if i could.”

“Lori is great! She totally understands our dog's temperament and took him on many adventures while we were away. We think he had more fun than we did!”

“Kailie took great care of our 2 boxers. She communicated multiple times a day with pictures and updates. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dogs were well cared for.”

About: Hello! My name is Skylar; I am 26 years old, my family has owned dogs my whole life, I own a dog and two cats! I currently work at a daytrain facility for dogs and am on my way to eventually becoming a dog trainer! I am relatively flexible as I work around my jobs schedule but I always provide the upmost care for animals. As a dog lover, I’m here to ensure that your family members stay happy and safe while you’re away! I currently work part time at a daytrain facility for dogs, typically in the afternoons - So I am available mostly in the mornings and evenings ( after 6 pm)! I am able to provide walks if needed (or if there is no fenced in yard), as well as special diets and medications as needed!

“Matt was great- took good care of our pup while we were away for the weekend and sent pics each day we were away. He left our home clean, stripped the bed, and even shoveled our driveway when we got snow while we were gone! Recommended! Would definitely use Matt again.”

“Hayley is AMAZING!! One of my cats is very social and the other is shy. She got BOTH of them playing, brushed them, and made sure they knew they were loved on top of the bare minimum of feeding them and giving my old lady her meds. She even checked to make sure my hamster was still breathing while I was away since it was always during my hamster’s sleep time that she was there. Highly recommend. Will be using again if I ever am going away and she is available”

“I have been using Jaclyn as a petsitter for over a year now. She is sweet, attentive and treats my fur babies as hers. I have a mix of dogs and cats and even dart frogs. Dart frogs need to eat live fruit flies and she had no problems giving them their food while I was a way for a week. My senior dog is on medications and while on one vacation she even drove to the vet 1/2 hour away to pick up more medications for him. I have a new puppy and she has been so helpful. I’m so happy I finally found a good sitter!”

“Fallon was amazing with my dog! They had a blast and she went above and beyond to make it a wonderful experience for my pup. She was super communicative, helpful, and reliable! 10/10 would recommend”

“Molly was great with my sometimes difficult dogs. She also tended to my livestock(chickens and sheep). She kept in touch with us while we were gone for 10 days. She sent pics of my animals during my vacation. We were far away in Ireland but I was able to relax knowing she had things under control. Would be happy to have her again!!”

“Zan has always been very attentive and engaging with my cat! Beyond making sure she is well taken care of, he cares a lot about developing the bond between them as well.”

“Razz has been my go-to dog care and sitter for about 7-8 years! They have come over to walk my 2 dogs on occasion but mostly I ask them to house and dog sit when we are away. I trust them completely - to care and love my dogs, to care for our house, to reach out if anything comes up ... and with 2 senior dogs, things do come up. During a recent dog sitting time, one of my dogs woke up and couldn't put weight on his leg. Razz was an outstanding care partner - we were far away and worried. Razz helped us to coordinate getting help for our fur baby. In addition to being reliable, they are a gentle soul that cares about the earth and world and is super amiable.”

“Jonathan took care of Joy with detailed attention and provided several daily reports about her exercise, behavior, and even her bodily output. He is super responsible, and I would entrust Joy to his care again.”

“Daniel is very accommodating and helpful. He seemed keen on building a good rapport with our dogs and cat. We’ll be asking him to look after them again.”

About: I have always cared for, loved & owned dogs for as long as I can remember. I love to walk so why not combine two loves into one lovely hobby! I live close to the Ashuwillticook Trail and the Greylock Glen where we will have great fun. Can’t wait to meet your special pup & make him/her the happiest hound in town. Whatever it takes I aim to please & pamper your PAWSOME pet! ❤️ 🐶😺 ❤️ I've always cared for, loved & owned cats as well. I would love to meet your special friend & build the fondest feline memories. As for all those small critters, I have experience with many different kinds including fish, hamsters, gerbils, parakeets, ferrets, rabbits and more. Volunteered at Animal Dreams shelter for a series of weeks through a service learning program at MCLA. I work part time as a nurse & ski instructor in the winter. I would love to help out with all of your pet care needs. I'm dependable & ready, snow, sleet, wind, rain or shine with references available upon request. I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon to set up a meet & greet with you & your main squeeze 😍 My schedule is moderately flexible. I would love to become a full time Rover girl in the future. I love all animals. I believe they are vulnerable creatures and most rely on humans to care for & protect them. If you are without a vehicle or your work schedule is super rigid I can pick up or drop off your fur-ever-luv if needed. I would love to help out anyway that I can. I own two dog friendly cats & I will look after your pet as if she/he were my own. I will do everything I can to make it the safest, most comfortable and memorable experience for your special pet.

About: ive had a couple of dog growing up in my childhood a sweet old black lab and a super crazy dingo.. in my free time after school and during summer i used to walk them, no amount of walking could satisfy my dingo.. id have her pull my bike to get all her energy out since we didnt have any closed in areas she could run off in.. ( i dont do this anymore! i realize its not very safe! she absolutely loved it for sure though) i love pups big and small old and energetic theyre all very unique and id love some new friends to get me out of the house. id ask you beforehand of course if youd be okay with them swimming, theres a pond i can bring them to after walking to cool off at. our backyard is fenced! i have two cats, so id like to know how your dog reacts around small creatures, if they cant be in contact i can always but them into a room while the dog is over. most likely theyd be outside! lots of shade and id keep em well hydrated and happy :3 i currently have been on a job hunt since what feels like forever, my schedule is very. very open.. since i dont have a car, drop off would be ideal, if your close enough to walk to i can do that too! weekends are the only time id be able to pick up your pooch my cats get their waters filled and cleaned almost daily, lots of love of course and are very spoiled. i dont have any dogs at the moment, so of course id love to chat about what youd expect and need for your lovely pup! im good with communication and friendly, special needs id be extra attentive to. im very good at remembering small things, though id still write em down incase!

“Jessie was absolutely amazing! She was quick to reply to us and made the whole process stress free! She was on time for our meet and greet and is the nicest! Our dogs absolutely loved her! She sent us some great photos of our dogs! We never had to worry, our dogs were in great hands! I highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for a great dog sitter!!”

“I have known whytne for almost 20 years and can wholeheartedly say I would trust her with any of my animals. I would describe her to be the most caring and hardworking person that I know. Which she brings to many aspects of her life. She is always making sure that the people (and pets) around her have what they need. Always putting the well-being of others first. I couldn’t find a better example of a friend, sister, cat mom/dog mom than her. You’ll be in good hands.”

About: I’ve interned at my local vet clinic for two years now and have recently moved to a paid position as an assistant! through this internship i have not only learned substantial knowledge regarding pet care, such as how to most effectively administer medications, but also discovered my love for pet sitting, as i have become one of the veterinarian’s permanent pet sitter! i also plan to go to vet school after i earn my bachelors degree! i am currently working various part time jobs, so i will need at least two weeks notice for a majority of the services i provide. i will try my best to arrange my schedule for your convenience! i’ll treat your furry family like my own! i come with treats ready (with permission of course) and never leave without a game of fetch or whatever else your babies might enjoy! they’ll definitely be the highlight of my day, so i’ll try to be there’s too!

About: Throughout my life I have had many pets and two years ago I started a pet care service in my home country. I am used to being with pets and taking care of them. I work from Tuesday to Saturday, I have availability on my days off and some afternoons after work. I can move my schedules if I need to. I offer pet care services in the pet owner's home. This way, it is much easier for the pet to be in its own environment and adapt to me.

About: I’ve taken care for more than a handful of animals before! I have worked for two farms in my life so far. I have also always grown up with having dogs, cats, and even hamsters and Guinea pigs! I am a mom of 2 little ones but just recently moved so I am in between jobs and can work with you on times! I am available most days and a good portion of the day, as the kids go to daycare! I am a very good listener and fast learner. I love following a guideline and care so much about your animals! I can’t wait to meet your pets!
