Availability
I am currently unemployed and taking a leap. What I’d LOVE is to start my own pet care company. I know how hard it is to find pet care in and around the Berkshires, especially the holidays when all the day cares and well known sitters are booked - so let me take some of that weight off you. I’m flexible and reliable and can do drops ins, walks, day stays, over nights, or multiple day stays. I’m open to any animal type, including pocket pets, exotics and special needs.

About Trista S.

Safety, trust & environment
What can I say? Pets are really the only thing most of us like in this crazy world; so it’s kind of the perfect job. 😉 I am open to all types of care, all types of animals, and all types of situations. I have experience in vet medicine and have had elderly and special needs animals my whole life. No matter how long my interaction with your baby is, I assure you it will be filled with love.
Information Trista S. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs that may make it harder for others to care for them. I have loads of experience with sick pets, administering fluids and giving oral/topical medication. I have two of my own with strict prescription diets, and one with a food allergy. Animals have taught me patience and love, and I promise to do the same. Let’s face it, they’re GOING TO miss you, so let’s make your time away as comfortable as we can.
A typical day
Their wish is my desire. Do they like dog parks? Would they rather play in their own yard? A game of chase? A little fetch? Maybe they just wanna lay on the couch and get some scritches and love. Spending the day with animals is my dream. I will pamper your pet as if they were my own. I promise to make every visit a treat. 😉

I’ll love them like they’re my own.
Pet care experience
Animals kept me safe my entire life, now I return the favor by keeping your babies safe while you’re away. ❤️ I have been working with animals my whole life. At only 3 I moved in with my step father onto a small farm(yes this means I can feed your chickens, gather your eggs, clean your stalls, and feed your cattle, pigs, or even horses). I spent three years working in the veterinary field where I learned to better understand and triage animal emergency and how to deal with them calmly and safely. I have 3 dogs, and 2 cats of my own as well as a bearded dragon and a few chickens, whom I love more than life. I have minimal boarding experience, but have had or worked with everything from fish and birds, to dogs to cattle, from snakes to horses, and I love each one of these creatures just as much as the rest. I adore all animals, and cherish my pets so much, and finding some one you can trust to REALLY care for them can be a challenge, so let me make your life a little easier with flexible, reliable, patient and gentle care. As a pet mom to 11 furry, scaly, and feathered babies, I know how hard it can be to find reliable pet care. My animals are my children, my babies; the most important things in my world. I promise to love yours the way I’d love my own.
