“Irene was great with Sadie. Sadie loved playing with Goldie and loved the friendly and warm reception she got. Sadie was given both play and rest time and really looked really comfortable with Irene when I picked her up.”

“Yenifer was a rare gem!! I was in town last minute with my dog, and she was amazing to accommodate Pancake for doggy day care with no notice. She kept me up to date and Pancake was so excited to see her the second day!”

About: My name is Jessica and I am a caring and fun person who has been caring for dogs since I was seven years old! Now I am 24 years old and do not have a dog anymore but still enjoy spending time with my friends pets and I dog sit for my neighbors. I am very active so I enjoy taking dogs on walks and hikes. I live walking distance from a lake. If the dog I am taking care of feels comfortable in water then I will splash around with the dog in the lake (there are dirt roads in this area to walk the dog on too). I have had experience with a wide variety of breeds, so I feel pretty comfortable with any dog. I understand caring for a dog is similar to caring for a child. I am trustworthy and loving towards animals! I recently passed my board exam so now I am relaxing for some time & will begin my job hunt in February, 2022. Therefore, caring for a pet will fit perfectly into my current flexible daily routine. I do not live with any other pets & I create a safe environment by keeping the dog on the first level of my home only. On the first level I make sure that there are no hazards for the dog. In a client's home, I follow all of their reccomendations in order to keep the pet as comfortable & safe as possible.
“Tetiana and her family have a loving, welcoming home and environment. We were met with smiles, shown around and we felt very comfortable leaving our pup. The communication during the booking process was great, as I had a number of questions. Tetiana was responsive and thorough. We found written Q&A better than a call. They were flexible with how we prefer care, food, exercise, rest, etc. We received nice pictures, videos and notes ... even though our stay was only 2 days. We will use Tetiana again when we have a need in the Berkshires, and I'd feel comfortable with longer if needed (and agreed upon). Each member of the family was fast friends with our dog.”

“Sandi was the absolute best dog sitter! Giddy was so excited to go to doggy daycare every day and was tuckered out by the time I picked him up. He loved spending time with Copa and getting to play outside often. He even got some healthy snacks! If I’m ever back in the area I will definitely we calling Sandi! Her whole family was lovely. We’ll miss y’all!”

“Jess took great care of my pup and sent me lots of pics and updates throughout the day! She has a sweet dog, and her dog and mine played together all day. Uva came home fed, healthy and tired! Thank you Jess!”

About: I'll provide constant supervision of your pet. I enjoy interacting with animals. Although I am not a professional dog handler I have had a dog in the house for the past 12 years. I will do my best to provide competent care for your pet. I am currently retired from the Columbia County jail, after completing 23 years. I am a Navy veteran. My wife and I have twin boys who are all grown up and out of the house. As a result of this I have become a little bored. I would appreciate your consideration when deciding on who to entrust the care of your pet while you are away. You will be able to be rest assured that they are being taken care of. I am usually available all the time except for the occasional vacation I might go on. Weekends are no problem either. I am pretty much available year round. I like to hang out with my dog all day. Adding more animals to the mix is no problem. I like taking walks with them and I also have a fenced yard.
“Bruno had a wonderful time at Kathleen's beautiful place! The fully-fenced in green space for the dogs was so peaceful I wanted to stay myself. Kathleen has a calming manner which the dogs respond well too. I am contemplating more trips to the Berkshires now that I know Bruno has a safe place where he will be happy and well taken care of while I spend time at Jacob's Pillow or museums. Thank you!”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the genuine care and attention I give to every animal I look after. I treat each pet as if they were my own, taking the time to understand their unique personalities, routines, and needs. My goal is to keep them comfortable, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I believe in open communication and send regular updates so you can have complete peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for. With a dependable and compassionate approach, I go above and beyond to make sure both pets and owners feel confident and at ease. 🖤🐾🐈⬛ 🐕 Because I’m a stay-at-home mom, I’m available around the clock to make sure your pets get the attention and care they deserve when you need it most. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure environment where every animal feels safe and cared for. Whether I’m visiting your home or hosting your pet, I make sure their surroundings are clean, pet-friendly, and stress-free. You can trust that your pets are in responsible hands — I’m attentive to their needs, mindful of routines, and always alert to signs of discomfort or stress. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are happy, protected, and treated with the same love and respect they receive from you.
About: I've taken care of many dogs for family and friends. I have been house and dog sitting regularly for the same family twice a year since 2007 and through word of mouth have picked up many more clients that would happily give a reference if requested. I feed fish and small pets and I'm happy to hang out with cats, spiders, and snakes too. I work full time for a very flexible boss, so getting home to let pets out on breaks and lunch isn't an issue. Once home for the day I tend not to leave so pets will be well cared for and I'll be very present for them. I don't trust letting any pet off leash while outside unless in a fenced in yard. I'm overprotective to a fault. I have sat on a kitchen floor for 45 minutes letting a dog bark at me while getting used to having me around.
About: I’ve had and taken care of pets since I was a young child. I have 20 years experience dog sitting for one or multiple dogs. I am currently out of work so my schedule is very flexible. I am home most of the time and have reliable transportation for services. The animals needs are extremely important to me. I make sure they are well fed, entertained, and exercised. Hydration and rest are also a must!

“Thank you, Peter, for taking such good care of Minnie! She had a great time hiking and monitoring those rabbits and came home a tired and happy dog. She was in a beautiful and safe place and we will look forward to return visits.”

“Diana and her family provided day care to my puppy Jolene and I cannot say enough good things. She is a wonderful and attentive sitter and provided great care. I would definitely recommend her.”
