Alyson stopped in each day to feed and spend a little time with our 4 month old cat, Luna. As new cat owners, we were very apprehensive leaving someone to take care of her. Alyson was the perfect choice and we will definitely be using her again!!

About: I have prior pet sitting experience and it's something I genuinely love doing. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, giving attention, and keeping pets on their normal routines. My 20 years of experience has taught me the importance of patience, reliability, attentiveness, and building trust with both pets and owners. I understand how important it is for families to feel comfortable leaving their pets in someone else's care. I always make sure pets are safe, loved, and well cared for. I am an educator so I have summer time flexibility. During the school year, I am available before and after school hours, evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. In the summer months, I have full availability and plenty of time to dedicate to pet sitting, walks, visits, and providing attentive care. My schedule allows me to be dependable, consistent, and flexible for pet owners' needs. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to keep their normal routine consistent so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive exercise, and get plenty of attention and affection. I also keep the home tidy by cleaning litter boxes, picking up after pets, and making sure everything stays safe and organized. I pay close attention to each pet's personality and needs, whether they enjoy lots of interaction or prefer a calmer approach. My goal is always to provide loving, dependable care while helping pets feel relaxed in their familiar environment.

It was really important for us to find a sitter who could take care of our newly diabetic cat and McKenna was so great. Fang and our other cats seemed very happy when we got back and we received pictures and updates every time she visited which is always makes me feel so much better. We will rebook McKenna anytime!!

Tara took excellent care of our two cats while we were away, both were given lots of love and attention. She even managed to get our scaredy-cat to come out and play which is very rare with new people. Highly recommend

Irene took care of my two kitties very well. They are very shy and didn’t come out to see her, but she made sure they had food and cleaned up after them.

About: I have had pets my whole life. I pride myself on caring for dogs the way you would. Walks, play and snuggles are just a must every day. Our 151/2 year old Wheatlie was given a ride/park adventure every day! My favorite activity of the day is walk-let me help you when you don’t have time to get out-your pet will feel good after a brisk walk! I am currently semi-retired so I am available for walks and care during the day. Our senior dog has passed so my attention is on caring for your pet the way I cared for my Wheatlie. I have a large yard for lots of fun! A typical day would involve play time, walks, treats, snuggles and scratches. Your pet is part of my family.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for about five years now and I have a lot of experience. I’ve worked anywhere from doggy daycare‘s to overnights to boarding dogs in my own home. I’ve always considered myself an animal person and I just love to care for them. I’m currently in cosmetology school so Monday through Friday, I’m in School from 9 o’clock until 430. After that, I plan to stay where I’m dog sitting for so that they get the most love and attention when I am able to be there. I really like to take it on the owners terms. I always prefer to meet the animal I’m caring for first however, if that’s not possible then it’s totally fine, however I like to listen to what the animal tells me, what boundaries it’s giving me, but I love to be able to play with them take them outside as much as possible feed them when necessary and give extra treats because they’re such good babies. I just appreciate the owners letting me know what they do and don’t want from me as a host.

About: I love to care for my dog and love to meet other dogs. I am open to any dog and its unique personality. I have taken care of all sizes of dogs and always want to meet their needs. I don't mind taking them on walks around the neighborhood and am happy to take pictures or videos of how they are doing. I am primarily available on the weekends but will make time for weekday evenings. I am currently applying to other weekday jobs and will update my schedule accordingly. I’m moving to Amherst on August 26th so I recommend not booking after this date. I will not be in the area I let my dog outside when he asks for it and keep a close eye on him. I also supervise all dogs outside, making sure they don't go into places they should not go. I will also provide baths when asked and can give oral medication.

About: I have always lived in household with a minimum of 3 dogs, dogs have been my companions before I could walk. Now I’m always with my service dog, Winnie. I worked with a program to train my own service dog. He’s a friendly little golden retriever, and a fast friend. During his training I learned the importance of trust routine, and patience with dogs. I’m currently working part time from 7:30 to 2 pm Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and 10-3 on Saturdays. I am always up for hiking or a short walk with dogs. I have a service dog who comes with me everywhere, he’s a gentle and easy friend, and generally good with other dogs. He’s just as happy to play as he is to nap.

Christina took wonderful care of my kitties - Lucy, Fox and Billie. From the initial contact and through the duration of my trip, her communication was excellent, visits were prompt, photos were very nice to see and she kindly did everything the way I like it to be done. She is professional, reliable and caring. I highly recommend Christina as a sitter.

Not only did Alyson come drop in and walk/hang out with our cavapoo Lily for an hour for the first time, but she was kind enough to come to our house the day before so we could meet each other. Above and beyond really. She was so timely and competent, sent me some photos and it is obviously that she loves animals. Grateful.
