House Sitting in Greenfield

“We highly recommend Lauren. We came home to a happy dog and a tidy house. She was great about communicating and sent some really cute pictures. Honestly, we were kind of glad our normal kennel was booked or we wouldn't have connected with Lauren.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Kylie was great! Took great care of my kitten and sent little updates throughout the weekend.”

“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 :) ? ?”

“Emily did a wonderful job with our special needs cat, Dakota. Dakota is paralyzed in the back after having been hit by a car years ago. He gets around ok dragging his back legs but he has to have his bladder expressed three times a day. Emily had experience doing this in the past (I think in some kind of vet assistant capacity or something like that) and successfully managed Dakota when we went out of town for a few days. Dakota stayed at Emily's house with her cats and it all worked out fine. Emily's house is so cat friendly with cat climbing things all around and Emily even mentioned that down the road she might have cat grass (that our cat loves to eat) since she grows it herself. We were also happy that Emily was fine with us leaving all Dakota's regular collection of favorite things: his little cat house, cat bed, and even the ramp we made for him to climb up on couches. It was so nice for us to think of Dakota in a friendly home rather than in a cage at the vet. We loved how Emily was great about communicating both in terms of photos showing Dakota was doing well and also asking intelligent questions to make sure the expressing of the bladder was going well. When we picked Dakota up, he was in fine shape and clearly had been well-taken-care of. We'll definitely use Emily again!”

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).

“For almost 2 weeks, while I was on vacation in the EU, Carol was at my home with my dog and I was able to let go and completely enjoy my vacation because I knew my dog and home were in good hands. I would highly recommend Carol!”

“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!”

“Sophie did an amazing job with my dog. She goes above and beyond. She left the house nice and clean. Always had updates on how my dog was doing. I would definitely use her services again.”

“We have an elderly and blind jack russel terrior who has a bit of an attitude and can be reluctant to get out and about but needs it. After meeting Bree I felt assured that she would do a great job taking care of our dog and the house. I was not disappointed. She sent me text updates and pictures which reassured me while I was away and asked questions as necessary. Most importantly, my dog was happy and content in the photos and when we got home. I will be a repeat customer.”

“Thanks for making Juni feel normal while we were away. Our house is in great shape of course and if we need a sitter again we'll definitely be back.”

“Anna has great energy and is really sweet with my big boy Blinksy-o. 10/10 would recommend that you let Anna hang out with your dog!”

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!

About: I’ve lived with dogs all my life (I grew up with dachshunds!), and I love all animals. I have experience with cats, dogs, and even some with snakes and rodents. When it comes to dogs, I have experience raising puppies as well as working with reactive dogs, and I'm happy to work with you to provide whatever care your pet may need! I'm currently working part-time in a hybrid WFH position, and my availability tends to be quite flexible. I am often available during weekends and holidays. I have experience walking dogs using harnesses as well as collars (though I prefer a harness for my own dachshund, as I don't want to hurt her neck or spine!), and would love to know what your pet's needs are in order to provide the best care! Let me know of all your pet's dietary needs, training regimens, and preferences so I can work hard to make your pet feel happy and safe.

“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.”

“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 :)”

About: I’ve had cats and a horse while growing up. I recently adopted my first dog in August 2021, she is a young red nose pitty and I have learned so much! I love being a dog mom and would love to help you take care of your fur baby too. I have most mornings, some evenings, and weekends available. I would love to take your dog to the dog park, walks and short hikes in the area. I take dogs out first thing in the morning b/w 6-7am and then to the dog park later on with walks through out the day.
