Dog Walking North Hatfield

About: I have Joyfully shared my entire life with pets for 70 years now!! I speak Fluent Feline and Canine and have been a pet parent to dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, turtles and fish as a child and provided daycare for birds. I am also a Certified Level ll Reiki Energy Practitioner. My services include Housesitting, Drop-ins and both dog and cat walking! My beloved Josie used to love going outside on a harness and leash since she and brother Shadow were feral-born barn kitties and then “indoor only” rescue pets for 15+ years! My “Platinum Spa” Services include pet massage and Reiki sessions for an additional fee for Housesitting and Drop In clients. My Passion to care for other people’s pets as a new career/business stems from the tragic loss of both my feline companions at the end of 2024. I have decided to no longer own pets myself and to get my “Pet Love Fixes” by Pampering My Client’s pets as if they were my own!! I have maximum flexibility with scheduling 24/7 for all services in the 5 Colleges Area of Western MA. I am also available to travel outside my local area to provide pet, plant and housesitting services upon request. I provide a full menu of services at client’s homes including multiple walks daily on leash, outings to local dog parks and hiking trails, specialized diets and medications, senior and disabled pet care, active playtime, basic training reinforcement, photos and text updates on how your pet is doing with each visit. My exclusive pet massage and Reiki treatments can enhance your pet’s health and happiness under my care!!

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was a kid, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. I’m heading to UMass to study Animal Science and hope to join the National Guard to gain EOD bomb-sniffing dog experience. I currently own a high-energy Border Collie/Australian Kelpie mix I rescued, and I’ve also cared for an elderly Shih Tzu who needed lots of special attention and patience. I’m very work-oriented, reliable, and people have told me I’m great with customer service. Neighbors, friends, and family often count on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I truly love every moment of it. As a full-time student, I’ve built a schedule that gives me plenty of time for pet care. I also work at a doggy daycare in Avon, CT, so my work schedule usually varies throughout the week. I’m happy to communicate my availability ahead of time and work with each pet parent to find a schedule that works best for everyone. I’m generally more flexible on days I’m not working and can often accommodate evenings and weekends. I treat every pet like they’re my own and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. Working at a doggy daycare has given me experience handling dogs with all different personalities, energy levels, ages, and needs. I’m attentive to their body language and routines and always make sure they get the appropriate amount of exercise, attention, rest, food, and potty breaks. I also understand that every dog is different, so I’m happy to follow each pet’s specific routine and their owner’s instructions.

About: I have had dogs and cats as part of my family all my life. I have taken care of puppies and kittens to seniors and every step in between of my own and friends and family. My job is based on volume and is generally 6 to 8 hour day. I work 5 minutes from my house and at anytime if needed I would be able to run home for a potty or medication break My dogs are my world. I provide the up most safety standards for all of the furry paws that come into my life. I believe in treating everyone pets in a manner that I would expect mine to be. I have gone above and beyond to provide a secure fenced in yard. I also have a gate between the living area of my house and the front door to keep dogs from running out.

“Dan is the dog whisperer we were hoping for!! He was prompt and very flexible! He was so great with pepper and we’re thrilled to have found such a sweet new friend for her!! Thanks Dan!!”

About: I regularly pet sit for family and neighbors. I’ve had many different kinds of pets of my own that all required different levels of care. From cats, dogs, snake, and tortoises. I will be available most afternoons and evenings during the week and anytime during the weekends. As a full time students my mornings are often less flexible but starting from early in the afternoon I will be available during the week. I like to keep pets on their regular schedules and play with them based on their energy levels. This we all have a great time.

About: I’ve spent over a decade working with animals, starting in Birmingham, Alabama, where I rescued, rehabilitated, and rehomed dogs through a bully breed rescue. I’ve also rescued and socialized cats and kittens, rehoming entire families. I currently have an active profile with Trusted House Sitters that has several five star reviews. After moving to New England, I worked at a cat hospice and later as a veterinary assistant at an emergency hospital. I’ve always had animals since I was a kid—especially cats—and I’ve also cared for reptiles, small pets like hamsters, and even fish. I’ve lived in many homes over the years and have often housesat for friends and family, so I’m comfortable caring for both pets and the spaces they love. I even have experience as a house cleaner and organizer and believe in leaving spaces better than I found them. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I work part-time as a cheer coach a couple of times a week and occasionally help with our family business, but my schedule is very flexible. This allows me to be available most days for quality time, pet visits, walks, and check-ins. I enjoy building pet care into my routine and making sure animals get the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. 🐾 Caring for animals is truly a passion of mine, and I treat every pet with the same love and attention I would give my own. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, their safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I believe every walk, play session, or visit should be a highlight of their day, and I make sure to give them plenty of affection, attention, and enrichment. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and happy while their owners are away.

“Anna was great with our dog! She responded quickly to our inquiry and communicated about the plan.”

“Sharene has a patient, gentle manner with animals. She was able to accommodate a last minute booking to check on my puppy midday, while I worked, and she was flexible when I needed to cancel a booking due to sickness. Easy to work with, and prompt to arrive.”

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have been caring for dogs and cats since I was about 10. Most of my experience has come from helping family, friends, and neighbors with their pets when they need someone they can trust. I’ve taken care of pets with different personalities and energy levels, and I really enjoy getting to know what makes each one comfortable and happy. I’m happy to take dogs on walks, play with them, feed them, give them attention, or just keep them company, and I’m just as comfortable spending time with cats and making sure they get the care and attention they need. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re safe, comfortable, and being well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently in college, so my availability depends on my class schedule. I’m available anytime on Mondays, Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, and I’m available after 1 PM on Fridays. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. When caring for someone’s pet, I want both the pet and their owner to feel comfortable and confident leaving them with me. I’ll follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, while making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. I’ll also treat your home with respect and keep you updated while you’re away so you know how your pet is doing.

About: I have pet sat cats and dogs for the last 7 years, and am very attentive to individual needs. Having grown up with a cat myself and taking care of my sisters dog definitely set me up for successful pet care. I work part time currently so am often available up to 2 days during the week and often one weekend day to care for your pets! I often let the pets lead me at first when I enter their environment. I want them to feel safe and comfortable, and am very patient when dealing with more anxious or defensive pets.

About: I’m young and active and love animals. I recently became a foster parent and taken care of 2 dogs and a cat before giving them away to good families. I have a flexible schedule and work mostly from home, giving me plenty of time to care for your pets. Whether it’s pet sitting or walks, I’m happy to provide reliable and loving care! I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being. I follow feeding schedules and medication instructions carefully to ensure their needs are met. With toys and treats from my past foster pets, I’m always ready to make them feel at home. I live in a spacious house in a gated community with a large front yard, plus I have access to a neighborhood park and a dog park just a few miles away. I pay close attention to details, especially if your pet seems uncomfortable, and I can’t help but shower them with love and attention because they’re just too cute!

“Zofia was fabulous, my picky chihuahua warmed up to them very sweetly. Will be back for more walks!”

“Hillaree was wonderful! She was quick to respond, easy to talk to and the dogs liked her (we have 3 so we have a pack to please). She walked our two larger young dogs like a pro and they enjoyed her company. Hillaree has an excellent understanding of dogs, she is conscientious and she is clearly a hard working lady. We will be booking again!”

About: I'm available for all holidays starting with Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza and New Year's Eve I'm a lifetime pet owner and pet sitter with strong references 🙏 I'm not employed by anyone else, so my time is wide open and I live on a quiet dead end street and close to regular parks and dog parks / trails. I always take the owners preferences seriously, but I do like to spoil with good food and treats. I also am good with grooming calmingly.

About: I have had small animals and a dog, and have cared for dogs, cats, horses, and fish. I am completely in love with all creatures big or small, and I've dedicated a lot of my time to the care of animals. I have recently worked at a dog boarding facility, so I have lots of experience with administering medication to animals, and tending to their specific needs. Me and my family are all super passionate about animals, especially dogs. I will love your baby just as much as I love my own, and make sure all their needs are met. My weekdays are not typically very busy so I can come and take your dog for a walk or play with your cats pretty much any time, given enough notice. Thank you so much for considering me to care for your best friend! I try to vary my jobs so my schedule changes often, but always ask! I am currently getting my BSN at HCC, but time management is no problem for me :) I do not have a fenced yard, but I do have a big field to the side of my house that my dog runs around in. I'm sure your pets will enjoy running with him. In terms of taking care of pets in my client's homes, I treat their belongings with utmost care and tact. I would definitely dislike anyone messing with my house, so I try to treat other people's houses with the same respect I would expect them to treat mine with. "leave everything as you found it or better"

“Milo had such a great experience today! 😊 Paisley was incredibly kind, attentive, and clearly cared about him.

About: All my life I’ve had a variety of different animals all including dogs, cats, birds, turtles, rabbits, etc. You name it, I have owned it. In some time spans all at the same time. I would love to take all this experience that I was fortunate enough to obtain throughout the years and bring it to your home! I am currently enrolled at the Western New England University. At the time being as I am on summer break I am looking for something to do to take up all this newly acquired time. As well as make some extra money to go towards my tuitions. Since I have a love for animals I thought this was the perfect opportunity for me. At the moment I currently have 4 dogs, 3 cats, 2 rabbits and a cocktail. As you can imagine yes they can certainly be a handful but I couldnt imagine my life without them. Each and everyone being on a schedule of their own which is always never a problem.
