House Sitting in Hawley

“We had a great experience with Lori house sitting our American Bully & Pit mix. Lori asked questions ahead of time, reviewed our instructions, and sent us text and photo updates. We couldn't have asked for anything more. We really appreciated all of her communication.”

“Elizabeth took great care of our dog while we went away!! She sent us pictures and gave us updates making our vacation enjoyable knowing we left our 4 legged kid in great hands! Definitely would recommend her care for your family pets 🐶🐶”

“Jaclyn knows the many moods and temperaments of dogs. Under the extraordinary confusion of a major home renovation project, she was able to settle our rescued pup upon arrival. We appreciated her excellent questions, skill, patience and forthright approach to leading him towards full exercise, calm homecomings and lots of fun in between. Thank you, Jaclyn!”

“Jolene was a great, last minute find for house sitting and watching our two dogs. She gave us regular updates on their day and was super communicative. Our pups were happy and relaxed when we came home and the house looked like we never left! We feel so lucky to have found her and look forward to booking with her again soon!”

“Matt and Ziggy had a great time together while I was out of town for the weekend. Matt was also a great housesitter; he left my place spotless.”

About: Hello! My name is Skylar; I am 26 years old, my family has owned dogs my whole life, I own a dog and two cats! I currently work at a daytrain facility for dogs and am on my way to eventually becoming a dog trainer! I am relatively flexible as I work around my jobs schedule but I always provide the upmost care for animals. As a dog lover, I’m here to ensure that your family members stay happy and safe while you’re away! I currently work part time at a daytrain facility for dogs, typically in the afternoons - So I am available mostly in the mornings and evenings ( after 6 pm)! I am able to provide walks if needed (or if there is no fenced in yard), as well as special diets and medications as needed!

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life, from my grandparents tiny poms to my own boxers, I love getting to know each pups personality. I'm also fairly active and frequently go on nature walks and hikes, so a buddy would be lovely :) During the weekdays I'm usually working until the afternoon, but my schedule is fairly flexible. On weekends I'm usually free for drop in visits, walks, or overnight stays. I'll make sure to stay hyper-vigilant of your pups wants and needs while they're in my care! I'm a very attentive and adaptable person, and I understand some pups take some warming up to. I can promise you my utmost patience and understanding.

“Truly wonderful dog and cat sitter: James did a phenomenal job caring for our three animals, one of whom is very anxious. It is a relief to find someone so kind-hearted and caring for our animals while we were away--it's not just a paycheck! I would hire James again in a heartbeat: an unreserved, enthusiastic five stars!!”

“Best experience! Super communicative sending pics /videos so I felt secure in my pups comfort after dedicated efforts that softened my ornery, timid chihuahua into a cuddle buddy eager for love and attention.”

“Colin did a terrific job for us! His work ethic was evident from the very beginning as he took copious notes during our meet and greet. The dogs loved him and I had every confidence he was going to be a great sitter. We weren’t disappointed. Colin was confident and handled all the details of their medications, special diets and quirks with good humor and grace. Finally, Colin’s respect for our home was unmatched by any of our previous sitters. His attention to detail was so appreciated!”

“Mady is terrific - she took excellent care of Zena. Her dog Sebastian was a great playmate for Zena and helped make the time we were away fun for her. Mady used good judgement and was responsible. She's also very pleasant and a pleasure to work with. I'd definitely recommend her and would be happy to use her again.”

Robert R.

“Highly Recommend - Bella first met our dogs and asked great questions so she could understand their temperaments and provide the best care. She was on-time and made it a super easy stay with the dogs!”

Frank K.

“Kaila was a great dog sitter! She took great care of our dogs, sent lots of photos, and was very easy to communicate with. I would definitely utilize her services again.”

About: When I was growing up, I was always caring for at least two dogs and cats at my family’s house. Neighbors and friends also made me their go-to dog sitter when they went away. I have loved caring for two greyhounds, four loveable slobbering hunting hounds, a giant golden who always thought he was a puppy, and one super sweet bullmastiff. Since my landlords do not allow pets, I am looking to give my attention to someone else's canine. I am comfortable with all sizes of dogs. I especially appreciate dogs that behave well on leashes and like big walks. I would like to help care for dogs in the Pioneer Valley, ideally around Amherst, Deerfield, and Northampton. If you are looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and experienced dog sitter/walker then let's talk! I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s)! Cats are cool too 👍 This winter and spring I have flexible working hours. I would love to break up the working day by visiting your pet and going for a walk. I will always provide gentle and loving care to your pets whether that’s playing outside or inside. Wherever care is given, I will always be mindful about respecting your living space

About: I’ve interned at my local vet clinic for two years now and have recently moved to a paid position as an assistant! through this internship i have not only learned substantial knowledge regarding pet care, such as how to most effectively administer medications, but also discovered my love for pet sitting, as i have become one of the veterinarian’s permanent pet sitter! i also plan to go to vet school after i earn my bachelors degree! i am currently working various part time jobs, so i will need at least two weeks notice for a majority of the services i provide. i will try my best to arrange my schedule for your convenience! i’ll treat your furry family like my own! i come with treats ready (with permission of course) and never leave without a game of fetch or whatever else your babies might enjoy! they’ll definitely be the highlight of my day, so i’ll try to be there’s too!

“Jessie was absolutely amazing! She was quick to reply to us and made the whole process stress free! She was on time for our meet and greet and is the nicest! Our dogs absolutely loved her! She sent us some great photos of our dogs! We never had to worry, our dogs were in great hands! I highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for a great dog sitter!!”

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.

“Daniel is very accommodating and helpful. He seemed keen on building a good rapport with our dogs and cat. We’ll be asking him to look after them again.”

About: I have over twenty years of experience in pet care. I have worked at boarding facilities, in pet grooming boutiques, in retail pet stores, and have done a fair share of dog walking and pet sitting. I am freelance illustrator and graphic designer, so my schedule is very flexible at the moment. I also have weekends free to do house sitting I believe I would bring compassion as well as experience to the job. I am extremely responsible and reliable 40 year-old animal lover willing to get my hands dirty and work hard.

About: I have always cared for, loved & owned dogs for as long as I can remember. I love to walk so why not combine two loves into one lovely hobby! I live close to the Ashuwillticook Trail and the Greylock Glen where we will have great fun. Can’t wait to meet your special pup & make him/her the happiest hound in town. Whatever it takes I aim to please & pamper your PAWSOME pet! ❤️ 🐶😺 ❤️ I've always cared for, loved & owned cats as well. I would love to meet your special friend & build the fondest feline memories. As for all those small critters, I have experience with many different kinds including fish, hamsters, gerbils, parakeets, ferrets, rabbits and more. Volunteered at Animal Dreams shelter for a series of weeks through a service learning program at MCLA. I work part time as a nurse & ski instructor in the winter. I would love to help out with all of your pet care needs. I'm dependable & ready, snow, sleet, wind, rain or shine with references available upon request. I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon to set up a meet & greet with you & your main squeeze 😍 My schedule is moderately flexible. I would love to become a full time Rover girl in the future. I love all animals. I believe they are vulnerable creatures and most rely on humans to care for & protect them. If you are without a vehicle or your work schedule is super rigid I can pick up or drop off your fur-ever-luv if needed. I would love to help out anyway that I can. I own two dog friendly cats & I will look after your pet as if she/he were my own. I will do everything I can to make it the safest, most comfortable and memorable experience for your special pet.
