House Sitting in Marshalls Creek

“Andrew was a lifesaver. I’m an anxious dog mom who was leaving for an international trip over Christmas and Andrew put my mind at ease. My dog has some stranger danger and it took some time to get her comfortable b it andrew was incredibly patient, kind, and full of knowledge re: dog behavior so the adjustment was quick and he got her comfortable in no time! I got plenty of pictures and updates and I know my pup had a great time. My home was left cleaner than it was when I left. THANK YOU, Andrew!!”

“This was a last minute booking, and then the details changed the day before due to a member of my family being hospitalized. Wilfred rolled with the changes and adjusted when to arrive and leave my house in order to give my pup a nice intermission from being stuck at home alone. Very communicative, conscientious, and punctual, with a genuine love and care for animals. Will definitely book again when needed.”

About: Hi! My name is Deja, and I’m someone who has loved and cared for animals my entire life. I grew up with both cats and dogs and currently have experience caring for multiple pets of my own, including 4 cats and 2 dogs. Over the last 1–2 years, I’ve also gained hands-on pet care experience outside of my own home. As a therapist, compassion, patience, and attentiveness are a huge part of who I am, and I bring those same qualities into the care I provide for every pet. What makes me stand out is the level of care, patience, and emotional attentiveness I bring to animals. I genuinely see pets as beings with feelings, emotions, and unique personalities, and I treat them with the same kindness and respect I would give another person. Being a therapist has strengthened my ability to be calm, observant, trustworthy, and responsive to individual needs, which helps pets feel comfortable and secure around me. I don’t just “watch” pets — I build connection, provide comfort, and make sure they feel loved while you’re away. I recently earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and currently work part-time as a therapist while continuing to grow my caseload. Pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy and intentionally include in my schedule because caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Since I work part time, I’m able to dedicate focused attention, patience, and quality care to the pets I work with rather than treating it like a rushed side job. When caring for pets in your home, I strive to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and emotional needs, so I approach each animal with compassion, empathy, and attentiveness. Whether your pet needs playtime, comfort, companionship, or gentle patience, I will treat them with the same love and care I would give my own pets.

“David makes our dogs feel safe and loved. They run to him as soon as they see him. He followed all our specific instructions and was very conscientious. He snuggled with them and played with them. We really appreciated how positive he was about staying with Belle and Rory. We would definitely use David again!”

“Cristel was absolutely amazing to have house sit and care for our cats - she left our house in better condition than we left it! Can’t thank her enough for being an incredible sitter and taking such great care of our cats and our home.”

About: I have had cats since I was born! I have many years of experience and consider myself well versed when it comes to kitties. I have taken care of many cats in my lifetime and am comfortable with all personalities and needs. Even "difficult" kitties become my friend in no time. I currently have 5 cats, two who have medical needs. Time and experience has helped me become knowledgeable in taking care of cats who may require special care such as medicine administration and senior needs. I work full time as a medical assistant and I am also a licensed massage therapist. Compassion and attention to detail come naturally to me! I provide stress free care for your pets while you're away. I currently work full time, Monday-Friday, 9am to 5pm. I can do after work drop ins/feedings on the weekdays. I am available on the weekends for house sitting and longer visits. I know how important routine is. Your pet thrives off having their routine thrown off as little as possible. My goal is give the best care possible while honoring their space.

“This was Sarah’s second stay with our dogs and it was another excellent experience. Her communication continued to be excellent as she provided check ins and photos of the dogs while we were away. House was neat and tidy upon our arrival. Dogs were happy and loved their stay with Sarah!”

“5 STARS!!!!! We absolutely love booking with Arianna, and our two dogs love her even more. We have so much peace of mind leaving them at home with her; we know they are in safe and incredibly capable hands. We were out of town for under two weeks, and knowing we had someone at home taking care of and loving our babies just like we would made our trip even better! We highly recommend booking Arianna to watch your fur babies, and we can't wait to book her again in the future!”

“Tara was a huge help with my anxious dog. Spent the night with my pup andwas attentive to any special instructions I left for my pup. Definitely will be booking with Tara in the future. Thanks fursitter”

About: I’ve always had a love for dogs, and before I moved to America we owned two amazing high energetic dogs. I loved taking them on walks and letting them explore the environment. I will ensure your dog is having as much fun as I will on his/her walk. I like getting exercise through walking so your dog will be getting plenty of it. Your dogs safety is also a top priority to me at all times and I will ensure that whatever activities we’ll be engaging in, they'll be kept safe. I work full time but still have plenty of time in the day to play and love your pup, my husband is also usually home as well and will generally help with care I have a fenced in backyard that I like taking the dogs outside to if they don’t need a long walk while they stay. We can also play.

About: Since I was a child, I’ve been surrounded by beloved companions of all walks of life. Taking care of your companions is not just a responsibility but a genuine pleasure to me! I’m excited to offer trust, reassurance, and authentic love that you and your companions deserve. As someone who had a Golden Retriever, I understand what it feels like leaving your baby at home. I’m committed to providing you the peace of mind that your baby is receiving the love and care they deserve. I’m highly flexible and eager to accommodate a schedule that works best for both of us. The more notice you can provide, the better I can tailor my services to fit your needs. When your companion stays with me, they’ll enjoy a safe and comfortable environment. My home offers plenty of space to roam and play, including a large, open yard. I currently have a 8 month old kitten, Spirit, that is friendly with all animals. If needed, I can provide separate spaces for Spirit and your companion to ensure everyone’s comfort. I am happy to provide what you and your companion needs to feel secure!

“I felt extremely safe leaving my anxious pup with Thalia! I was updated during the day and was very reassured when I expressed concern about Morti’s behaviors. Definitely going to book with Thalia again!”

“Jennifer was fantastic with our dog Murphy! She kept him very active and even helped with some of his training. She left the house in pristine condition and sent plenty of pictures while we were away. I cannot recommend Jennifer highly enough, you'll be so glad to have her caring for your pup!”

About: My family and I have fostered puppies and dogs since I was 12 years old which gave me plenty of experience with lots of different dogs, breeds, ages, and genders. We have always had our own family dog, and I continue to dog sit/dog walk for neighbors, friends, and family. I’ve also been volunteering at the Thomas J. O’Connor Animal Control and Adoption Center in Springfield,MA since July of 2025. This has allowed me to gain even more experience with so many different types of dogs and behaviors. I always want to preface that even if it says I don’t have availability, always reach out anyways because depending on what services you may need, we can work something out. I do have a demanding work schedule, but typically I am available in the afternoon and early evening (1pm-5pm). Of course I have weekends available as well. I would never take a gig if I’m too busy and can’t provide the best care possible for your pet. I would prefer to take care of pets in their own home. I believe that pets in their own environment is the best situation for the pet, and myself.

About: I love taking care of fur babies and I had a 120lb Great Pyrenees and mini schnauzer myself. As an experienced dog handler, I'll be sure your dog gets excersize, stays safe, and is taken care of and loved when you're gone. Whatever your dogs needs, just let me know and I will be sure to provide for them and send daily pictures too! Walk, play, bathe, visit, cuddle, or stay overnights. If you are training your dog I can continue it so they get all the practice while you're gone. Anything else, feel free to ask with a message! Please include in your messages your pets schedules and any special care, training, or behavior instructions to note. I work from home so pets usually stay around me the whole day! I get breaks to take them out and play. Home dinner time and wind down before sleep. Fenced yard, will walk on leash around neighborhood, crate is great to bring if they are used to sleeping in it, I let them go in and out as they please

“Maurie has been a dream petsitter...she has a sixth in dealing with animals. Ever since we first contracted with Maurie to stay in our home and care for our four pets (two cats and two dogs), we've noticed distinct positive outcomes. Our pets are visibly calmer, happier, more rested, and less agitated and anxious. They all appear healthier and more trim. Maurie promotes long walks and consistent interaction with them, and she doesn't overdue giving them treats. Maurie is the greatest person...we recommend her wholeheartedly as a petsitter! Shawn and Jen McGlynn”

I grew up with 2 dogs and 2 cats and now I have two rescue birds and cats that go inside and outside.. my dog Chance unfortunately passed on me last December from cancer. 11years old. Miss hun terribly. But anyway, I help people all the time in my area with their fur babies and I also help locate lost ones homes I’m open!

Spoiled rotten.. but of course rules will be followed from the owner! I’m very respectful like that. I wouldn’t want someone doing to me what I ms do to them

About: Taking care of your pet, as if you were taking care of my one year old, beagle mix puppy that I do have at home! Currently I have a very easy, open and flexible schedule. You and yours will be my #1 priority. My routine always works around you, and your furry friend. Depending on what services are needed, I am very open for different service options. I have no problem crating animals if needed/wanted. Treat/feed options as well.

About: Hi there! I would love to have the honor of taking care of your fur babies! I have plenty of experience considering I have 9 dogs of my own... yes 9! Two big dogs and the rest are small to medium sized. So I am basically a dog walker at my own house just without the pay, haha. I am a recent college graduate from ESU with a BA in musical theatre but I would love to in the future become a veterinarian someday. My schedule is open and I also have my own transportation! I would describe myself as very reliable, kind, and caring. I hope you consider me to be your pups dog walker, I can promise you they will be in good hands!(:

About: I am a stay at home mom and grandma who loves dogs, cats and my grandson. I used to babysit my neighbor's dogs when she and her family went on vacation. I had a dog who was trained by me to not jump on furnitures and to not step on things. She also cared for my son when he was sick. I currently offer doggy daycare and overnight boarding. I am available weekdays and weekends. I can also doggy sit on holidays. Overnight boarding is available at any time. Your dogs and cats will have a great time. There is always fun activities in this household. I will also sit puppies and kittens for additional fee. $25 for the whole day and $35 for overnight.
