Pet Sitting in Holyoke

“Ace is an incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and caring sitter. We booked her to care for our two older cats and she was so communicative and kind to the little guys. One of our cats needs a subcutaneous injection daily, and she did a wonderful job delivering it - even when he was being difficult. I couldn’t recommend Ace enough, and am definitely going to book her again in the future.”

“Richard was so amazing with my ferret Monroe! He can be a little tricky but Richard took everything in stride and made sure Monroe had a fun time while I was away. He was incredibly kind and responsive and made me feel like I had nothing to worry about.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since the beginning of high school. I have dogsat for family and friends, and friends of them as well. They have relied on me to feed, walk, and stay with their pets when they are away. I’m currently a full time teacher that works from 7 am - 2:30 pm Mon-Fri, but I can be available weekdays after 2:30 pm and on most weekends! I make sure to leave the place the way I entered it. I always clean up after myself and make sure to clean from the pet as well. I follow the rules and expectations of the house owner.

About: When I'm taking care of your pup, rest assured they'll receive the best care and plenty of attention. I'm truly passionate about ensuring a happy and healthy experience. During our time together, my priority is to create a stimulating environment for your dogs, ensuring their day is enriched with various activities and providing necessary breaks. With access to a spacious yard, they have the freedom to explore, satisfy their curiosity, and enjoy the outdoors. I will maintain the established routines and reinforce their existing obedience skills. If necessary, I can introduce basic commands to further enhance their training foundation and strengthen our bond. With your permission, I will use delicious treats as positive reinforcement to reward their efforts and motivate them during the training process. Rest assured that your pup will receive the attention and exercise they need to be happy, healthy, and pleasantly tired when you return. Your pet's well-being is my utmost priority, and I can't wait to create a positive and fulfilling experience for them while you're away. Since 2018, I've been dedicated to offering top-notch pet care services on Rover. My husband, Scott, and I work together, to ensure your pup receives undivided attention throughout the day. We work opposite shifts, which allows us to have a consistent schedule to offer play, love, exercise, and personalized care to your pup. Drop-off & Pick-up: Please specify your desired drop-off and pick-up times within our accommodating hours of 12:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. With prior communication, we can make arrangements outside these hours we just ask for you to request that in advance so we can plan accordingly. Rest assured that your pup will receive the attention and exercise they need to be happy, healthy, and pleasantly tired when you return. Your pet's well-being is my utmost priority, and I can't wait to create a positive and fulfilling experience for them while you're away. When your pet stays with me, they will enjoy a secure and fenced backyard for safe playtime and exercise. With my three dogs as companions, your pet will have built-in company and socialization. I am fully equipped to accommodate their individual requirements, including specialized weather care, administering medication, and providing necessary training. Your pet will have access to ample indoor space for relaxation and a cozy environment.

“Jacklyn was an excellent sitter for my cat! She was punctual, very friendly, and went the extra mile by playing with her during her visits! Each visit, she sent a highly detailed summary and pics which were very reassuring for me while traveling. I highly recommend Jacklyn as a reliable sitter, you will not be disappointed.”

About: As a child, we had a family cat die shortly after giving birth to a litter of five kittens. We had to bottle feed the little ones and nurture them. Since then I have almost always had animal companionship in my life. Some of the years that I was not paired with an animal, I was able to watch other people's pets, so I have always appreciated the friendship that comes with it. I am currently on a work furlough, and picking up some small odd jobs, but have a lot of flexibility. I regularly run, walk, bike, etc., so my energy level is appropriate to care for an active animal, or just chill with an older or slower animal- I probably prefer the latter, actually. We have a fenced yard and access to some nice parks and other areas nearby. We currently have no pets, so yours will be the only one to focus energy upon.

“Hallie was fantastic with my two kitties- they clearly loved her and had a great time! She sent fun updates and adorable pics during all her visits. I will be using Hallie for all my upcoming trips and would recommend her to anyone looking for a cat/dog sitter!”

“Everything was great! She sent us photos of the dogs which helped us feel more comfortable while being away. She even helped pull our trash cans is after trash day. She was amazing!”

“Sarah did great job taking care of my two kitties, and sent very reassuring updates and cute photos every visit. I really felt like they were in good hands the entire time I was gone.”

About: I have 12+ years of experience caring for many animals with a wide range of needs, from basic care to special medication and feeding routines, and from crate and house training puppies to caring for elderly cats and dogs with arthritis, diabetes and blindness. Each animal is unique, and has a special personality. Your pets health and happiness is my priority, as is yours. I can provide as many updates as necessary, but giving as least one per day/per visit is important to me. I love to share with you about the funny thing your dog or cat did when I walked in the door, and I want to make sure you are up to date on behavior, feeding, play time, and potty time so that you can give me any necessary feedback. I love ALL animals, and in addition to cats and dogs, I also have experience with many small animals such as many types of rodents including ferrets, a small variety of reptiles, and some birds. I will even feed your fish and water your plants! Your pets won't be disappointed (and neither will you!) I have several small businesses and work from home on a flexible schedule. I'm a single parent, with almost no help, so sometimes that requires me to bring one or both of my children to work with me, always with my clients permission. That does not affect my reliability or the quality of care your pets receive. It is a challenge, but no one ever said being a single parent would be easy! I have lots of space to fill with cats and dogs and I can and will always accommodate your pets schedule and ensure they receive the best care and love next to what you provide them. I have two animal loving dogs and an animal loving cat! I also have 2 animal respecting children. My goal is to earn the trust of your pet, during any of the services I offer, and make sure that their time with me is stress free, fun and engaging so they have the best stories to tell their parents when they return. **Note for house sitting clients only: most overnight services I must bring my youngest child with me. She is disabled and in a wheelchair and I have much trouble finding overnight care for her. She is quiet and easygoing, she is unable and unwilling to approach your animals, but shows happiness when they approach her. Her presence does not affect my ability to give your pets 5 star care. Accessibility to your home is usually not a concern, and will also not hinder my ability to accommodate your pets needs and schedule. **

“So patient and great with my pups! Appreciate the dedication and love for them you show! Gives me such ease being able to go away knowing they will be cared for so well!”

About: I have a big love for dogs and inspired to work with multiple different breeds to be able to learn more about all of them. I currently work full time and get out of work at 2pm everyday, only go to the gym after work for about an hour to an hour and a half and have the rest of the day free. Weekends may vary, but typically don’t have a lot going on. Have a lot of space within the house for the dogs to play around in. Also live with my boyfriend who has a big love for dogs and has a family dog of his own.

“Guinness was a very happy boy with his first walk with Alanys!!!!! I felt safe and comfortable with Alanys (and you can tell Guinness was immediately comfortable) walking our boy and will book again!! Highly recommend her!!!!”

About: I am 31 years old and have had pet dogs for my entire life. I used to volunteer at a shelter walking dogs and completed the orientation that went over recognizing animal body language. I am basically the designated pet sitter of my family and have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes (and some cats and small animals). Petsitting has become my main work at the moment, so I will be available as needed for any bookings to check in, play, feed, walk, and care for your pets. I regularly pet and house sit for friends and family and can adjust to the routines your pets are used to. I am always careful to follow any directions provided and make sure any gates, harnesses, leashes, etc. are secured. I do require meet & greets before confirming any bookings, not just to make sure your pets are fine with me, but so that pet owners and I can get a feel for each other as well and make sure we're all a good fit!
