Dog Walkers in Deerfield, MA

“Carlea was amazing!! She was always communicative but also low key. I felt confident the dogs were getting their needs met (and my dogs are my children.. so they’re a little extra needy). I appreciated all the pics and comments Carlea sent. She was very available to help. I just can’t say enough great things about her!”

“Daniel was really sweet with our high energy lab. He took Ziggy off our hands amidst the chaos of moving day and brought him home happy and tired, which made such a difference for us! We are happy to be moved into the area now and will definitely use Daniel again.”

About: Hi, I’m Jaclyn! I’m new to Rover, but not to pet care. I’ve always been an animal lover. I have taken care of family, friend’s, and coworker’s pets for over 15 years. I have been consistently pet sitting since 2020. This ranges from cats, kittens, senior dogs and puppies, to rabbits, guinea pigs, and tropical frogs. I make sure to keep your space clean; laundry, dishes, vacuum, take in the mail, take out the trash. I want your home to be a safe haven when you get back, with nothing to tend to when you return. I am a wonderful companion, and I make sure your pet is happy, clean, litter scooped, fed, walked, and they will get lots of love and playtime. I always respect their cues and boundaries for everyone’s comfort. Animals love me! Whether they enjoy playing ball or walks, or snuggles on the couch, I want to make sure your fur-babies are happy and cared for in your absence. There are references on my wix website which I’m happy to share upon request. I provide a free meet-and-greet before sitting dates; I want to meet you and your pet, and ensure they are comfortable with me ahead of my visit. I love check-ins for longer stays and will send photos if desired. My house sitting overnight services are in high-demand so please book ahead for best results. Let me know how I can help! I look forward to meeting you ☺️🐶🐾 My main focus is on building dog walking and pet care services, so I’m available for all your pet care needs! I am often in Amherst or Greenfield and don’t mind traveling. My house sitting is very in demand so please book early. I have more flexibility for daytime walks. Thank you! I will go over your regular routines for your furry family member, and chat about what keeping your pet safe looks like. I love a good harness for walks, and carefully supervised backyard playtime. Wood trails are great for walks and I always keep a close eye to make sure your pet is not getting into any mischief! I exercise the utmost caution when walking on the street, keeping alert for traffic or any other hazards. I carefully assess dogs we may meet on the street to ensure safety and distance if necessary, with skills I’ve learned working at a doggy daycare. I care for dogs in a reassuring, calm way, with lots of praise and patience. I have a good eye for ticks and I am always finding them, but your dog should be treated for this, too. Your best friend is in good hands with me!

“Maggie's walked my pit bull Edna several times. She's easy to communicate with and Edna's well cared for. I would definitely recommend her!”

“James was great with Taina! When we returned back home, Taina looked happy and well taken care of. James followed the instructions I left for Tiana’s feeding and gave her nice walks. I was always updates with various pictures and a narrative of how the visit and walk went. I will definitely use James again!”

About: Hi! I’m Gus and would love to care for your pet 🐾. I grew up with dachshunds and now share two cats with my partner in Greenfield. I love getting to know animals — their personalities, love languages, favorite treats — and will give your animal the attention it deserves. 💕 I am happy to take walks, play games, and offer cuddles. My goal is to provide a worry-free experience for you and your animal companion by providing consistent and reliable care. I am getting my PhD in English and teach college students during the school year. My schedule in the summer is very flexible, aside from writing a dissertation. I am looking for extra income to supplement my teaching stipend. I am able to come mornings and evenings, and stay the day if needed. I believe in respecting animals’ boundaries. I have two cats who are fiercely independent but also need lots of attention. Figuring out this balance is something I believe is individual to an animal and I will prioritize the way your animal expresses their needs. 😊 My two cats are indoor, as I prefer to keep them safe from outdoor pests. I include them in weekend activities (cooking, movie nights, etc) and play with them daily. One is especially talkative so I make sure to give her lots of verbal affirmation. They each have two litterboxes and we feed them twice a day - both wet and dry food. Cleanliness is also a big part of our routine. Brushing, cleaning litterboxes and food bowls, and providing fresh water are taken care of on a daily basis. In terms of dog care (I grew up with several dachshunds), I am accustomed to taking dogs on daily walks, cleaning and bathing if needed, and offering more energetic (or chill) play times depending on your dog’s needs. Several animals I have cared for in the past have been on special diets, or needed medication. I am happy to do so for your pet if needed, and understand the importance of careful measurements and serving portions.

“She did a great job of caring for our sweet dog while we were away.”

About: I grew up in a home with two cats and two dogs and just adopted a sweet cat of my own! I’ve also lived for 2 years with a golden doodle (belonging to my roommate at the time) and my sister has two beautiful pit bulls and three cats that I love spending time with and taking care of. I have gone on runs with these dogs, watched them while their owners were away, and done my fair share of pet sitting for others as well. I have a high value of integrity and will be very responsible in taking care of your animals and your home. I truly delight in spending time with animals and have engaged with many different dogs and cats over the past ten years. I also work for a non-profit and have a somewhat flexible schedule.

About: I am an active 20 something animal loving gal. Throughout college, I dog walked and house sat very regularly. Now I take on more long term house sitting gigs, but I am open to new drop in/dog walking clients. I am comfortable and have experience with all indoor animals (big and small) and some outdoor critters (think chickens, goats, etc.). I have familiar and comfortable with the needs of puppies and older dogs, I have experience taking care of both. Currently, I work part time so I an free throughout the day to visit your furry friends while you’re at work. Additionally, I don’t have many responsibilities at home (no fur babies or kiddos), so I have a generally flexible schedule for housesitting. I am comfortable caring for animals with any kind of needs. I am adamant about clear communication with owners to understand how to best care of their fur babies and keep them safe. I reciprocate this communication when caring for your fur babies and try my best to stay in regular contact with owners.

“Super easy communication, lotto says he loves Mady”

About: I have had animals my whole life and always also have been employed in animal care fields. Personally have 5 dogs and 4 cats. I also have experience with farm animals including horses. I am currently working part time and have a very flexible schedule. I can always adjust my day as needed to fit your desired schedule. I understand the importance of routines for your pets and with a flexible schedule can always make sure their needs are met and they are happy and stress free.

About: I am a speech-language pathologist in Greenfield, MA and love working with animals on the side when possible. I started dogsitting down in Rhode Island in 2014 while I was in graduate school. I've also grown up with dogs in my life (a black lab/german shepard mix and a yellow lab). I have some experience with puppy training and enjoy going on walks with and exercising dogs. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since I can remember. I've grown up having a dog. My first dog was a black lab/German Shepard mix named Pretina. I would play with her, take her on walks, go hiking with her, and many more activities. My second family dog, Piper, was a yellow lab who I had since she was a puppy. I helped in her puppy training and have enjoyed all the previously mentioned activities with her as well. Many of my friends and extended family have also had dogs which I've enjoyed playing with and caring for. During my undergrad career, I petsat for my professor's yellow lab and thoroughly enjoyed caring for him when I was so far from my own dog. My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering medication, though I would like to be shown how to administer it and practice with the owner before sitting for the dog. I have some experience administering insulin shots to a cat. I work in schools, so I am generally available before 8am and after 3pm on weekdays during the school year. During school breaks and summer, I have more availability. I care for your dogs following client preferences. I will let dogs out into a fenced in back yard, crate when left alone at home, keep on leash for walks, etc. as indicated by owners. In general, I would default to keeping dogs on leash during walks and not letting them out on their own unless the yard is fenced in.

About: Need someone you can trust with your baby? That's me! Trustworthy, reliable, affectionate, probably too affectionate lol. Experience with big and small dogs, I am stern and loving and love to spoil with extra long walks and cuddles. I know it is hard leaving your loved one with a stranger so any questions or concerns are welcome. I am here to make your experience comfortable and worry free that is why i like to send picture updates of your little one having fun. Cant wait to make a new friend to keep me company while we go for walks, play fetch, eat meals together and snuggle and pet at the end of the day, or whatever your little guy likes! Thanks for your consideration :)
