“Ash was a GREAT house and pup took care of Whitney for 10 days while we were away with tons of walks, meals and treats, cuddles and rubs and overnight stays, long walks and visits with her best dog friend, and even handled a contractor visit and an appliance installation! Both our home and our pup were in great shape when we got back- would recommend Ash for six stars if i could.”


“Kristina did a fantastic job taking care of my 2 dogs and cat while I was away! Her detailed updates and myriad of adorable pics gave me confidence everyone was being very well taken care of while I was away. We'll definitely be booking Kristina again in the future”


“Jaclyn knows the many moods and temperaments of dogs. Under the extraordinary confusion of a major home renovation project, she was able to settle our rescued pup upon arrival. We appreciated her excellent questions, skill, patience and forthright approach to leading him towards full exercise, calm homecomings and lots of fun in between. Thank you, Jaclyn!”


“Maggie did a terrific job with our 5 mo. old Westie, Archie! She came at the last minute when our original sitter did not show up. She said she enjoyed meeting Archie and that he was always near her. She was patient with a feisty, semi house trained pup from Wed. afternoon till Friday a.m. She really accommodated us at the last minute so we could get away as planned. She sent us updates and photos and reassured us that though we were leaving Archie for the first time, he was well taken care of. We will ask her to be Archie's sitter again. Thank you, Maggie!”



“We felt very lucky to have Catherine sitting with our dog, Daisy for 5 days! Daisy is particular and anxious and Catherine helped her get through in a very loving way. We received detailed daily check-ins and many sweet reassuring photos. We'd absolutely hire Catherine again!”


About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life, from my grandparents tiny poms to my own boxers, I love getting to know each pups personality. I'm also fairly active and frequently go on nature walks and hikes, so a buddy would be lovely :) During the weekdays I'm usually working until the afternoon, but my schedule is fairly flexible. On weekends I'm usually free for drop in visits, walks, or overnight stays. I'll make sure to stay hyper-vigilant of your pups wants and needs while they're in my care! I'm a very attentive and adaptable person, and I understand some pups take some warming up to. I can promise you my utmost patience and understanding.

“Jolene was a great, last minute find for house sitting and watching our two dogs. She gave us regular updates on their day and was super communicative. Our pups were happy and relaxed when we came home and the house looked like we never left! We feel so lucky to have found her and look forward to booking with her again soon!”


“Truly wonderful dog and cat sitter: James did a phenomenal job caring for our three animals, one of whom is very anxious. It is a relief to find someone so kind-hearted and caring for our animals while we were away--it's not just a paycheck! I would hire James again in a heartbeat: an unreserved, enthusiastic five stars!!”


“Gabe was communicative and easy to work with. Both dog and house were looking great after Gabe was here for three-night a long weekend. We would recommend him to other folks and not hesitate to re-book him for our future travels.”


“We felt very comfortable with Colin coming to look after our doggies. We had a very good meet and greet. Colin was thorough in asking about our needs for our pets. He was willing to adjust our schedule for a slight change. We received a cute photo of Milo while we were away. A wonderful experience with a delightful and thoughtful care giver!”


“Emma took great care of Fox and Bear! She was very on top of giving Bear his post surgery meds. She played nicely with both pups and gave them lots of snuggles. Everything in our home was meticulously cared for as well. Thanks Emma!”


About: When I was growing up, I was always caring for at least two dogs and cats at my family’s house. Neighbors and friends also made me their go-to dog sitter when they went away. I have loved caring for two greyhounds, four loveable slobbering hunting hounds, a giant golden who always thought he was a puppy, and one super sweet bullmastiff. Since my landlords do not allow pets, I am looking to give my attention to someone else's canine. I am comfortable with all sizes of dogs. I especially appreciate dogs that behave well on leashes and like big walks. I would like to help care for dogs in the Pioneer Valley, ideally around Amherst, Deerfield, and Northampton. If you are looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and experienced dog sitter/walker then let's talk! I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s)! Cats are cool too 👍 This winter and spring I have flexible working hours. I would love to break up the working day by visiting your pet and going for a walk. I will always provide gentle and loving care to your pets whether that’s playing outside or inside. Wherever care is given, I will always be mindful about respecting your living space

Imani D.
“Hi! This is Imani’s girlfriend, my name is Hope! Three years ago I downloaded the Rover app and have made this my full time job ever since. Imani has been working and helping along side me, joining me for every house sitting job I’ve gotten. Through this experience he’s had the opportunity to get the inside scoop of the ins and outs of this business. He was also able to meet countless pet owners outside this app and work with them by proving them daily walks/overnight pet sitting. Not only does he have the knowledge to provide excellent care but he also has the biggest heart, diligent work ethic and keen attention to detail, making him the best pet caregiver one could ever ask for!”

Liz S.
“Liz is an amazing human and great pet care provider. She helped us out when we needed a place for our sweet 13-year old dog, Lobo, to stay while we were out of town. She was very responsive, sent sweet photo updates of Lobo, shared about some of their adventures / walks, and was able to support his special diet providing medicine to him when he needed it. We would highly recommend Liz to anyone looking for pet care.”

I'm glad we had the chance to have Jaclyn stay in our home with our Daisy dog while we were away for a few days! On our meet and greet visits, it was clear that Jaclyn was responsible and responsive. Daisy seemed very comfortable with her. We enjoyed the updates and photos Jaclyn sent and it was clear that she enjoyed her time with Daisy. She took good care of our home, too! Will seek her out again!
