Pet Sitting in Hawley

“Took care of my two cats and did a great job! They warmed up to her very quickly even though they’re usually pretty skittish. I came home to find their dishes full and litter clean. She did a fantastic job of taking care of my babies”

About: As a psychiatric nurse, I offer gentle, attentive care to people in vulnerable moments. I bring the same calm, respectful presence to the pets I care for. Their feelings and situations are accounted for while I tend to their personal needs. I work part-time on an as needed basis and can work around the schedules of my clients. Available on short notice, including nights, and 12-24 hours' notice is preferred. I have a lightly fenced yard and two friendly dogs. A canine guest may be offered crating for sleep, or they are welcome to bring their own bed. Must be cat friendly. If caring for a pet in a client's home, care will be provided in their own environment precisely as they are used to.

“I booked Iris to walk my Sukie while I was on vacation in Western Massachusetts and attending a music festival. Iris took great care of Sukie while I was away and was a great communicator. I would highly recommend Iris!”

“Janet was very communicative & understanding of my shy girl. You can tell right from the meet & greet she is very sweet and caring with animals. She was available at a last minutes notice and followed detailed instructions. Will definitely have her back! Thanks Janet!”

Sarah D.

“We had a great experience with Lori for midday drop-ins during a busy work week! My dog is older, was recovering from surgery, and isn’t always great with strangers — so I wasn’t sure how it would go. But he warmed right up and had great fun on their visits! Lori is responsive, responsible, and great with my dog. I loved the photos of him so happy to see his new pal each day. Will definitely book again! Thanks Lori!”

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!

About: I am a responsible Pet Lover who puts the needs of pets first. I love to spend time with pets, dog walk, do basic grooming, and I am very attentive when a pet is in my care. I have 1 cat now, who prefers to stay at home. I have experience with all many types and breeds of dogs. I also have experience with pets of all ages, including pets with special needs, special diets, or medical issues. I do have a couple of per diem home care jobs. My hours are sporadic, but never regular. Usually day or early evening. They are never long shifts (5 hours or less). I have prior engagements for an hour each Sunday-Tuesday nights. I always make sure that the pet is fed and walked before leaving the house and as soon as I get back. Depending on the location, I might be available to take the dog/dogs out for a short walk during a shift. For drop ins, I am available for feeding twice a day and 3 walks a day. I am very attentive to the needs of a pet. I make sure that they are well taken care of. I limit cell use while walking your pups. I do not smoke, drink, or use recreational drugs. I have a lot of experience with reactive dogs. I always do my absolute best to assure the safety of your pups, other people, and other pets that we might come in contact with. I spend as much time with them as possible. I am able to do extra light cleaning in your home, as well as clean up after myself. You feline family will also be well taken care of, as I am learning more about our fickle feline friends everyday.

“We were very pleased to have Hillaree care for our cat again while we traveling. Her photos and stories from her check-ins make for wonderful updates while away.”

“Emily is amazing! She made friends with our standoffish scaredy-cat right away and has proved to be incredibly competent and responsive when we need her. We don't know what we would do without her!”

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.

“Angela was super quick to respond to my messages and she did a great job with our Pyr Bentley. She sent us a quick update and photos with each visit which was much appreciated. I would recommend her to anyone!”
