House Sitting in Gill

“Maggie did an awesome job of taking caring of my dog when I was out of town. She was very patient with my anxious pup and took the time to let my dog slowly warm up to her. I felt great leaving town knowing my dog was being well taken care of.”

“Doreen and Cindy were excellent house guests and took very good care of our dogs. We have a very shy dog that took to them immediately which put us at ease for travel. Would recommend.”

“I chose Matt because I had read his reviews and he lived up to the reputation! I think dogs are a good judge of character and she warmed up to him immediately upon his first visit to meet her. I had plans to leave the country and needed to feel like my pup was in good hands and well cared for. She has some special needs and Matt made sure she received the care she required. I loved the updates, pictures and videos Matt sent, all which helped me know she was happy and healthy. She even is jumping on people less! He somehow taught her to stop this annoying behavior and I need to find out how he did this!! I definitely would recommend him!”

“Lauren took care of our dog for the weekend. She had good communication, left the house clean, and our dog was relaxed and happy when we returned home. We would use her again.”

“Maddy did a fantastic job sitting with our pup! She was very attentive to our needs. Rupert, our pup, absolutely adored her. I could tell from the first time they met, but more than that, he didn't look like he had lost weight when we returned. That means to me that he didn't miss us as much as usual ;) I also was happy with the updates. I knew she was enjoying him just as much as he did her. She not only took great care of Rupert but of our house and plants too! I highly recommend her. She is the best!”

“John dog sat for us when we went away for 8 days. Maggie was well taken care of. He sent us pictures with updates every day without fail. He was very accommodating the last day when our plane was delayed, and he offered to take care of Maggie for an additional night!”

“Kiersten is very easy to communicate with and took great care of my dog, Luna. She sent me lots of pictures of their time together and was very flexible when our plans changed. I would definitely hire her again.”

“Some people are just born dog people. Daniel C. Is one. He loves dogs and they love him. He’s also a great dog service person. Dependable. Responsible. Reasonable. Everything you would want in someone who will take care of your pet. A 5 on a scale of 1-5. Sue C.”

“Xixi was amazing and really went above and beyond for me and my pup :) highly recommend they even helped my neighbor out ! Great job :) ? ?”

“Carol did great with our cat and elderly dog! She was very responsive and communicative during her stay and left our home very tidy and clean. We would definitely book with her again!”

“Kristen Was Great! Beau Immediately Took to Her. She Kept Me Up to Date & Informed About Beau’s Care Throughout the Day. She is Dedicated & Has Earned My Trust!”

About: My name is Michelle and i have always had a passion for animals.I have 5 cats myself (indoor/outdoor) as well as a toddler. I am very respectful,responsible,and trustworthy. Your fur baby would be treated as if they were my own. I do my best to have a great relationship with any animal I come in contact with. My house is 100% dog and cat friendly. Plenty of space for them to roam as they wish, also a large yard with tie out leads. All animals are welcome. I am home 80% of the time. I leave home for work about 5 hours every other day. I am currently working on my degree in animal science. I have time, space, and energy to fill it with somthing i am passionate about. The level of safty is always top priority. Ensuring a safe space and plenty if toys is the key to successful play time for everyone.

“Anna has cared for my dog Ollie multiple times and I trust and appreciate her completely! Ollie absolutely LOVES Anna and is always so excited to see her. Anna is always sure to give him long walks and also gives him an abundance of love and engagement. I feel so grateful to know there’s someone who can give Ollie so much attention and care when I’m away.”

“We asked Sophie to watch our dog Abby on very short notice after a loved one passed. Sophie came over the day before we had to leave to meet Abby and get acquainted with our space. She had a calm reassuring presence that seemed to make Abby at ease. Sophie kept us updated while we were away and was very flexible with her time making sure to provide Abby with the care she needed while we were gone. When we came home Abby was clearly well cared for and relaxed. The house was left clean and tidy and locked up to our instructions. We will definitely call Sophie again when we go out of town and need somebody to come watch our dog.”

About: I have always had dogs, cats, or caged animals in my life. I've always been an animal person and always do well with even picky animals. :) I know how to be calm, patient, and caring; but also know how to get animals to listen to instruction :) I can walk, feed, bathe, play, and watch over your pet and make sure they have a great time :) I usually work via instacart or doordash or other forms of self employment so I dont have a problem making time when i need to :) I have a crate for a reasonable sized dog if they require it but also can care for them without it being closed overnight if well behaved and that's their thing :) I have a decent back yard but it's not fenced in -- I also live near the turners bike path where theres room to walk but no road for cars so walks are definitely possible :)

“Trish took SUCH good care of Tig, giving her lots of attention, treats, cuddles and taking her out for adventures. I came home to a very happy doggy. Trish also sent regular updates, which I love. Tig usually has a hard time when I’m gone for the day, let alone several days, but she had a great time and I knew I didn’t have to worry because she was in Trish’s capable hands :)”

“We arrived home after a week vacation to three happy, healthy dogs. Elysse seemed to have navigated their needs easily, was responsive and sent a few photos. We would definitely book with her again.”

About: Experienced pet-sitter with a widely flexible schedule available for any needs you may have for your pet! On top of pet-sitting and day trip/walking experience I have experience as an assistant groomer from working for The Green Groomer in Northampton, MA which you are welcome to get in touch with as a reference. I also worked at a Dog Daycare in the Boston area before moving to Western MA, where I was involved with many responsibilities surrounding the pups including providing their meals, pick-ups/drop-offs, de-escalation of conflict, and general moderation of behavior. Working in this field has granted me the opportunity to work with dogs of all temperaments, ages, and sizes and has taught me how to interact with pups from all walks of life. On top of that I have experience with bathing, nails, and ear cleanings from my time at the Green Groomer. My schedule is extremely flexible, with open availability during the week before 3PM, making check-ins during the work day hassle free, and my shift never getting out later than 10:30PM, so overnight boardings are still not a problem during my work week. I also have Friday-Sundays off so long weekend boardings are always an option. Please let me know in advance of any house rules for your pup (i.e furniture rules, dietary restrictions, routine scheduling) and I will be sure to follow them with the same consistency you would. In regards to boarding with me they would be boarded in a pet-free, smoke-free, child-free condo with a large unfenced yard in the back for leashed outings when needed!

“I was going on a trip abroad and enlisted Hannah to care for my cat Trudy while I was away. I’m so glad I did because Hannah was amazing and so attentive to her needs! She was so wonderful with communicating beforehand and even came out to meet Trudy first. She made a positive impression immediately with her gentle and patient disposition toward my cat. They hit it off right away! Hannah made sure to answer all of my questions and ask some of her own to better understand how to best care for Trudy. It alleviated a lot of my own anxiety about leaving her for a week. Hannah was extremely trustworthy and even sent me some photos of Trudy while I was on vacation. It put me at ease knowing she was in such good hands. I will absolutely be hiring Hannah again and cannot recommend her enough!!”

About: I’ve taken care of my parent’s dog, friends and relatives when they need someone to walk, feed, and watch over them. I enjoy playing with them and especially walking since I love walking 13+ miles a day, if I don’t have school! I am a full-time college student that works part-time as a letter carrier. I wanted to fit pet sitting/walking on the weekdays as I find myself having more free time after my classes. I can accommodate to the dogs needs! Unfortunately I cannot house sit at my home, but I can absolutely come to you! I would just like a heads-up on the times! I love brushing dogs and giving them baths (though more experienced with small breeds on bathing).
