About: I have taken care of family, friends, and neighborhood, pets since I was young! From meeting all of the new pets I have learned that each has their own unique personality-no two pets are the same! With that comes different approaches to earn their trust and create a bond. I am currently on summer break from teaching so my days are pretty available for the next few weeks. Once school starts my availability will change to the later afternoon. I am a very versatile pet sitter! I have spent time with pets where they just need some company and they get all the love, some want all the love and a nice walk outside. My two fur babies are polar opposite energy wise so I know how important it is to meet the needs and play with one of my cats, and how the other just needs someone to give her a lot of love while she naps!
“Erin was amazing! She answered promptly and took me on very last minute. My two dogs loved her and she made me feel very comfortable: as someone who has never used a sitter before! Will be booking again !!”

“As soon as we met Madison we felt so comfortable. She was so kind and loving to our dear dog Angel and was flexible with our unique scheduling needs. I loved the photo updates and reports. I could tell that Angel was happy and well cared for while we were away. We are so grateful for Madison!”


About: I love all dogs but am especially fond of the giant breeds.🔅WILLING TO TRAVEL OUTSIDE OF RADIUS SHOWN🔅 I am mid 30s and I've always connected with dogs. I recently lost my dog after 13 years of spoiling her. She was our perfect dog, a bullmastiff boxer and a princess, so I know all about finicky dogs. I trained her as a puppy and we always got complimented on how well behaved she was. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pup and worry about them, I used to leave long lists of instructions for our girl and love it when I got text updates of her, so I will do the same for you. When we spoil them it speaks to the depth of our love for them, and that's something special to not entrust with just anyone. So if you have a "diva" or a "prince" I'm your gal. 😁 I miss being around a dog but I am not able to commit to my own right now, so I'd love to give your dog lots of cuddles and spoil them for you while you are away. I do not offer care in my own home or care for dogs dealing with incontinence because things are too fresh still. I do not offer care for dogs with aggression issues either. I feel it's important to make sure both the dog and I are comfortable, and therefore require a meet and greet to make sure it's a good fit. I work from home so I will be able to care for them and cuddle lots throughout the day. I will need to leave briefly in the evenings, but for the most part will be there with them. If your dog is trained to be off leash, I am comfortable with that as long as we do a meet and greet and you show me their responsiveness when called back. I am also fine with taking them out on a leash or letting them into a fenced yard, whatever is their norm. If hired for dog walking I'd prefer to do a meet and greet and go on a walk with you and the dog so you can show me their route and preferences to ensure we are both comfortable
“Kirsten did an amazing job watching our dogs! They loved her and she provided diligent, attentive care to them. Our dogs aren’t easy, from daily meds to allergies, they can be a lot to take care of and Kirsten managed it all perfectly. She kept us very well informed while we were gone, sending lots of photos and updates. She also was very neat and clean while she stayed over. I would recommend Kirsten highly to anyone seeking a trustworthy, reliable pet sitter! We are so grateful to her and can’t wait to use her services again!”

“Liseli is an absolute delight-our dog Winnie was super comfortable with her from the first meeting. Winnie was in great spirits when we got home. The house was in A+++ condition! Thank you, Liseli! So happy!!”

About: I am always the first to be called when a friend needs doggy daycare or house sitting with dogs, cats, and often other animals. I’ve fostered and found homes for rescues internationally and domestically. I’ve worked for a doggy daycare where I was responsible for 50-70 dogs with a crew of 2-4 people. I also spent a few months off and on taking care of 10-22 huskies while part of the herd were sled racing. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and enjoy seeing all of their unique personalities. I’ve loved animals since I was small. We always had cats when I was little, as well as ducks, chickens, guinea pigs, rabbits, my turtle boy China B, parakeets, and a Senegal parrot foster. I was surprised with a rescue dog when I was 10, Hemingway. It was an amazing experience and I helped train Hemmy to be a service dog for my grandmother who was visually impaired. Winter rates are now $250/day for basic overnights, includes 3 pets. Will adjust include extra rates accordingly to animals and household needs. I’m self employed and have the flexibility to set my daily schedule around your animals needs and regular routine. Lots of scritches, play time and love are part of my commitment to your pets. I am available for short and long walks (depending on your animals needs and ability), playtime, companionship, love and affection, meals and snacks as well as monitoring medication if needed.
About: I have volunteered at my local humane society for 3 years, walking dogs and cleaning their kennels. I grew up with three dogs, and farm animals, and have always loved animals. I am currently a freshman at Umass Amherst, with availability Fridays, Monday and Wednesday mornings until 2pm, and occasional weekends. I am available to do check ups if given enough time to plan and respond! While I cannot house sit in my own house, I can in the client's home. I will follow specific directions given, and make sure the pups are fed, played with, and let out.
