“Alex stayed with our pups again, but this time for a whole week. When I returned, the pups were healthy and the house looked great. Alex even washed the sheets! Great communication, photo updates, and a relaxed vibe. Thanks, Alex!!”
“Julie was amazingly flexible, as our schedule was unknown, and was there when we needed her. More importantly, she was good with Ricky, took him out for walks as well as for his sanitary needs, and kept us regularly informed, with pictures. If we are in the area again we will seek her to assist us, and Ricky, again.”
About: I am a lifelong lover of animals, and have always felt truly connected to non-humans. I've been caring for pets for most of my adult life, and my first memory of caring for animals was on my aunt's farm in Louisiana as a 5 year old. I have experience caring for most all types of household pets, and experience with a wide breadth of dog and cat breeds. I have cared for pets with illnesses, specific dietary restrictions, and all sorts of quirks and routines. I have experience bathing pets, administering medication, and helping animals on the shy side warm up to me and feel safe. With animals, no ask is too large, as all pets are different and have their own special needs. I take pride in ensuring I approach all animals in my care with attentiveness, empathy, and love. I work part-time, so I have very open availability to pet sit, house sit, walk dogs, care for cats, etc.! I am available for overnights, mornings, nights- whatever your need is, I can likely accommodate! Whether I am at my house or am house sitting for a client, I ensure pets are comfortable, stick to routines, and do what I can to calm any separation anxiety.
“Thomas did a wonderful job looking after my hound Raynor. I came home to a relaxed dog and a clean house. I would definitely recommend Thomas, and will book with him again.”
About: I have 30 years experience with puppies through seniors - healthy through special needs. Training for puppies on leash walks through walking seniors in a stroller. My dogs have ranged from disabled chihuahuas, big German shepherds, and lively beagle mixes. I excel at bonding and building trust with pets and look to have a unique connection with each one. For doggy daycare and boarding: Right now, I dont own any dogs. Your dogs would be the only dogs in my home. When there are dogs in my home, my cats are safely locked away in the basement with their food, toys, water, and playhouses. There will be no interaction. I am currently working part time (remotely) and fully available to care for your pets, play with them, give them all the attention, care, and love they deserve! Morning, afternoon, evening, late night care is well within my timeframe. Caring for your dog: I will only walk on leash - no unleashed care unless within a fully fenced backyard. If you are training your dog, I will be able to continue with training. I am able to administer medication if needed. If your dog has any allergies or requires special food, please be sure to let me know. Happy to perform brushing or baths if needed. Pets, hugs, playtime, or lounging and relaxing - whatever their preference and makes them feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable. As for caring for your cats, I request a full schedule of their feeding times, and recommendations as to what they enjoy playing with. If they like to be brushed, please note. If they are skittish or love attention from people, please let me know so I can provide them with a level of care that will allow them to feel safe.
“Julissa stayed in my home for 6 days caring for my two dogs. She was promt and responsive and my dogs were happy and healthy when I arrived home. She also left the house in perfect condition. I would not hesitate to hire her again!”
About: Raised in a big dog household, comfortable with all shapes and sizes. Always happy to spend time with the most genuine creatures on earth and I'm never afraid of the poop bag. During the week I like to walk early mornings before 8am and after 4pm when I get out of work. On the weekends I'm available all day long! All animals are deserving of genuine care and respect, I will treat yours like my own. While walking I know it's my responsibility to avoid dangerous situation before they happen.
About: I have Joyfully shared my entire life with pets for 70 years now!! I speak Fluent Feline and Canine and have been a pet parent to dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, turtles and fish as a child and provided daycare for birds. I am also a Certified Level ll Reiki Energy Practitioner. My services include Housesitting, Drop-ins and both dog and cat walking! My beloved Josie used to love going outside on a harness and leash since she and brother Shadow were feral-born barn kitties and then “indoor only” rescue pets for 15+ years! My “Platinum Spa” Services include pet massage and Reiki sessions for an additional fee for Housesitting and Drop In clients. My Passion to care for other people’s pets as a new career/business stems from the tragic loss of both my feline companions at the end of 2024. I have decided to no longer own pets myself and to get my “Pet Love Fixes” by Pampering My Client’s pets as if they were my own!! I have maximum flexibility with scheduling 24/7 for all services in the 5 Colleges Area of Western MA. I am also available to travel outside my local area to provide pet, plant and housesitting services upon request. I provide a full menu of services at client’s homes including multiple walks daily on leash, outings to local dog parks and hiking trails, specialized diets and medications, senior and disabled pet care, active playtime, basic training reinforcement, photos and text updates on how your pet is doing with each visit. My exclusive pet massage and Reiki treatments can enhance your pet’s health and happiness under my care!!
“Katelyn and her girls took wonderful care of Pierogi! Lots of photos, snuggles, and activity time. Will absolutely be booking her again for our next trip in August!”
“Justin stayed with our cat and dog in our home for 7 days, and it was a wonderful experience! He was conscientious and communicative; Our cat is challenging and our dog is a lover; Justin did super with both! Our pets were happy to see us return but calm/chill; they were happy and content, There was no transition with learned "naughty behaviors" to un-do. It was super smooth. Justin is amiable and pleasant. He pays attention to the details of your pet's personality, care and routine. He pays attention to all that he does; our home was just as we had left it. I will definitely book him again; he is a gem. I highly recommend him!!”
“Debbie was absolutely incredible with my 2.5 year old pit mix Brooks. He took to them almost instantly at the meet and greet, and I felt 100% comfortable with them staying at my house and looking after him. Debbie kept me updated with pictures and texts and took amazing care of him. Having somebody stay in your house and look after your pet is always a little daunting, but after chatting with Debbie and her partner for 20 minutes while they got to know Brooks I had no hesitation about having Debbie stay and care for him. Debbie and her partner are really awesome people and clearly both love — and are good with — animals. Debbie will be my go-to first choice for any dog sitting I need doing in the future, without a doubt.”
About: My dad taught me at a young age how to care for, and respect all animals. I have turned this into a life long love for all animals, both domestic and wild. I am a vet assistant, and currently studying to be a certified vet tech. For the last two years I have worked at the local animal shelter, and for the last year, at a dog daycare as well. I have volunteered at Dakin for the best part of the last 15 years. This has included transportation of animals, dog walking, animal socialization, and the kitten ICU. I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time for your furry family members. I am available during the week, on weekends, and holidays. Whether your dog likes the dog park, or playing in the backyard, we can play using their favorite toys. If they are more of a couch potato, I can accommodate them as well. If you have kitties that need company, we can play in the house, or go out for a stroller ride. I have a fenced in backyard for the dogs to play in. In the summer, a pool and water sprinkler will be available. I am a vet assistant, so I have first aid training for both dogs and cats. My house is air conditioned, perfect for relaxing on a summer day.
“Hallie is a super knowledgeable and competent pet sitter, especially with dogs with behavioral issues. She took great care of my dog and kept us updated and sent cute pics. He seemed to have a great weekend. We were very stressed trying to find a pet sitter for him for a wedding and were so relieved to have found Hallie.”
“Drew was great with our cats. I'd been a bit worried leaving town because Gideon just started a new medication regimen and I wasn't sure how he'd do with a new person administering, but Drew was patient while Gideon ate his medicated food and it was no problem. Even skittish Sophie was warming up to Drew within a few days, which is fast for her. I would definitely hire Drew again next time we're out of town!”
“Maggie was a great sitter! She communicated well and sent lots of pictures, and my dog and cat seemed happy when we got home! She stayed at our house and took great care of it. Would definitely have Maggie watch them again!”
“Mary Jean provided exceptional care to our sensitive rescue mix. We were scrambling to find someone who could house sit on short notice when we reached out to MJ, who responded promptly and professionally. She communicated regularly over the weekend with updates, both texts and photos--our pup clearly had a great time with her and our house was in amazing shape when we arrived home. I highly, highly recommend!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Easthampton
Lilliana did such a wonderful job watching Lola for a whole week while I was out of town! She was very attentive about regulating Lola’s food intake and took her on lots of walks. My house was in order just as I left it when I came back. I really appreciate it and would absolutely hire her to watch Lola again.
This is our second time having Ziggy care for our pups! Again, they did an excellent job. One of our dogs struggled to adjust (she was recently adopted), and Ziggy went the extra mile to make her feel comfortable. Our other dog is medically complex and we trusted Ziggy completely to give wonderful care. We will definitely be hiring them again. Thank you, Ziggy!
We are grateful and appreciate Heather's conscientious care for our dogs and house! It was great to have daily updates and photos, to hear how things were going and put our minds at ease. We hate to have to be away from our pups, but were thankful we could attend an important family celebration and know they were well cared for.
It was such a pleasure having Cindy watch my two dogs. She is incredibly responsive and made me feel completely at peace while I was away for a week by sending regular updates and the cutest photos of my pups. She clearly took the time to get to know them and treated them with so much care and love. Cindy was also extremely considerate and tidy in my home. I came back to happy, relaxed dogs and a spotless house- I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would trust her again without hesitation.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Easthampton walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Easthampton maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Easthampton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
