Dog Sitting South Hadley

“Rachel has been such an amazing help with our two cats, especially now that our senior cats requires daily pills. It’s such relief to know that when we go away we know for sure he will get his medications with Rachel. I’d highly recommend her, and will definitely be booking with her again as needed!”

“Our two cats really liked Mickala. She went above and beyond helping us with several situations such as trimming a cat's nails and cleaning up some ants which got into the auto-feeders.”

“Erin was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my cat, Tinky, and my elderly Chihuahua, Sasha, for five days while I was away in Puerto Rico. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. She was incredibly kind, patient, and gentle with Sasha, making sure my senior pup was comfortable and well cared for. She also handled Tinky's persistent attempts to convince her to let him outside with so much patience and good humor! Eryn went above and beyond, and it was clear she genuinely cared about both of my pets. I came home to two happy, well-loved animals, and I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. I highly recommend Eryn to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable. Thank you so much, Eryn! We will hope to use her again and again .”

“Ace was wonderful with our kitty. Attentive, caring, and communicated a lot along the way. Didn’t shy away from having to give him insulin. I would absolutely use them again for cat sitting!”

About: Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’m an Animal Science student with professional experience caring for dogs and a lifetime of experience caring for cats. I offer care in client’s homes through drop-in visits, walks and extended drop-ins. I spent 2 years working at a dog rescue, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning kennels, exercising dogs, monitoring their health and behavior, and helping nervous or shy dogs feel comfortable. Working with rescue dogs taught me how to read body language, stay calm in new situations, and provide patient, compassionate care. I’ve also been a cat owner since I was eight years old and have had four cats throughout my life. My senior cat became disabled later in life, so I have experience with medication, grooming, litter box care, and adapting routines for pets with special needs. That experience gave me a special place in my heart for senior animals and pets who need a little extra patience. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I also love keeping owners updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! As a full-time Animal Science student, I schedule pet care around my classes and keep my availability updated on Rover. I only accept bookings I can fully commit to, and once I accept a booking your pet becomes a priority. I offer reliable drop-in visits and dog walking, and I’m happy to spend extra time with your pets when needed to make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I provide care in my clients’ homes through drop-in visits, walks, and extended drop-ins so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, and any special instructions. I always treat my clients’ homes with respect, make safety my top priority, and provide regular photo and message updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Aemelia was great. We and our puppies really enjoyed interacting with her. She was able to accommodate our last minute needs and was very cool about it. We will for sure be contacting her again and again.”

About: Fur mama to two kitties, besties with my roommates’ frenchie, and a proud fur auntie to many! I grew up in a family with dogs, cats, turtles, fish, birds, and reptiles, allowing me to develop a deep love for all animals. I've had various experience with house and pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since I was a kid. I've got plenty of experience with bathing, administering medications, trimming nails, cleaning up messes, and keeping animals enriched/entertained. I trust that you know how to care for your pets best and will follow instructions carefully, always asking clarifying questions if needed. I have a special place in my heart for those that are elderly and/or more shy/anxious that may need more time to warm up to folks. I'm honored to be considered for the care of your fur baby and look forward to meeting them. :) A little about me: I'm a 30 year old grad student pursuing an MSW at Smith College and will be graduating this summer to become a therapist. I spend my free time walking, journaling, reading, and traveling. I have two kitties who I rescued from shelters that have become my shadow - they follow me all over the home and I happily keep them entertained with lots of love, play time, and prompt meal times. With every client, I strive to be the type of sitter you'll want to rave about to your friends/family about and that your pet adores. Clients who book me to housesit for 7+ nights or 5+ walks/drop-ins get a complimentary personalized pawty favor from me! I am currently an MSW student at Smith College, my general availability is as follows: Sunday: All Day Monday: 11a-1p, 4-9pm Tuesday: 11a-1p, 4-9pm Wednesday: 8a-9pm Thursday: 1-9pm Friday: 1-9pm Saturday: All Day I prefer in-person Meet & Greets so that we can discuss the expectations we have for each other and your pet can get familiar with me. I'll want to know your pet's history of aggression, anxiety or bad habits so that we can prepare and have the appropriate plan in action for potential incidents. Tell me everything! I like being prepared for it all. I treat all animals under my supervision with as much love & care as I treat my own.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care, consistency, and attention I give to every pet. I don’t just stop in to complete tasks—I take the time to understand each animal’s personality, routine, and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I have experience with a variety of needs, including puppy care and basic training reinforcement. I can help maintain potty schedules, crate training, and simple commands, keeping things consistent so your puppy continues learning even when you’re not home. I’m also very comfortable with senior pet care, providing a slower, more attentive approach. I pay close attention to mobility, behavior, and any special routines to make sure older pets stay comfortable and stress-free. In addition, I’m detail-oriented and reliable. I carefully follow feeding schedules, instructions, and any special care requirements, and I always make sure your home and your pet’s space stay clean and well-maintained. Above all, I treat every pet like they’re my own—giving them patience, attention, and genuine care rather than just supervision. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around visits to ensure pets are fed, exercised, and given attention at consistent times. I’m reliable, flexible, and able to accommodate morning, afternoon on weekends and can provide full evening care, making sure each pet gets the time and consistency they need. For safety and trust, I always follow owner instructions carefully, keep environments clean and secure, and pay close attention to any changes in behavior or health. I treat every home with respect and make sure pets are always in a safe, comfortable environment. tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and the specific service requested, whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or extended stays. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping everything as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m also attentive to litter box or yard cleanup, administering medications if needed, and maintaining a clean, safe environment. I respect your home, keep things tidy, and always make sure doors, gates, and pets are secure before leaving. No matter the setting, my goal is to provide consistent, reliable care so your pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

I don't have much professional experience with cats, but I have lived with many cats throughout my life and am a huge cat lover! I do not have any pets myself as I recently lost my dog. So i am in serious need of some dog time! I am available any time after 2:00pm sunday-thursday and all day friday and saturday(: some days i am available earlier than that, typically sundays and mondays im available around 12:30-1:00pm. I am happy to accommodate any of your pet's needs! I can walk, play, just give love, whatever makes your baby feel the most enriched and happy. I know every dog and cat has their own specific needs and I'm very dedicated to that! I live in a small studio apartment. There is plenty of great space to take walks near my house (i live right on the bike trail) but i do not have a fenced in yard. If this sounds like it could be suitable for your pet, i'm more than happy to board them(:

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since childhood, from growing up with a Labrador to caring for my own pets. With five years working in a grooming salon, I’m experienced in meeting the needs of all dogs, such as playful puppies, adult dogs, and seniors alike. I’m passionate about providing attentive, reliable care tailored to each dog’s personality and health. I’m currently a part-time PetSmart employee and a college student, which means I have weekday afternoons available for pet care. Weekends aren’t always ideal, but I’m happy to discuss arrangements and see what’s possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their usual routine so your pet feels comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, bathroom breaks, and of course lots of love and attention. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs; whether it’s helping a puppy burn off energy, giving extra patience to a shy dog, or offering gentle care for seniors. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

“Ashley is amazing. She followed instructions and took great care of my animals. She even went above and beyond when there was an issue with the front door and I was out of town. I will be using Ashley again!”

“Dorjee helped me out by providing a last-minute extended drop-in visit to care for my cat, which reassured me quite a bit. She made sure my cat was well fed and given her medication. Appreciated!”

About: I've been caring for a variety of animals(including dogs, cats, invertebrates, and livestock) for over a decade, since I was about 10 years old. I have experience with animal handling, animal care, dog walking, pet sitting, and animal training. I work with all breeds, sizes, and ages of dogs, and am a dog trainer (I have also trained cats and pigs!) currently specializing in obedience and reactivity. I am currently working towards my CPDT and goodpup certifications. This is currently my main source of income, so I have fairly open availability. I also have a car with plenty of space so I can both commute and transport pets. I try to provide care for pets that is as close to their usual daily routine as possible. I make sure to follow meal times, usual potty breaks, and any other routines that they usually have.

About: I’ve lived with both cats and dogs since i was a little kid. I think the most special bonds exist between humans and animals and there is nothing more rewarding than being able to spend time with a happy dog or kitty. I’ve watched both a tiny pug and a huge newfoundland, as well as cats of many different personalities, so i would consider myself pretty qualified for both animals! I currently live with a wonderful cat named Goose and I would love to watch your furry friends! I am a full time student as well as a couple of part time jobs, but I can always fit time in during the week whether it’s a simple walk or more extensive care. I’m also pretty open in the evenings! I can adapt to your pet routine easily, as long as provided with instructions. I think pets deserve lots of love and attention as well as exercise and I’m more than happy to provide that!

About: Taken care My family dogs since young. Have had 3 of my own ranging in size and age. Even birthed new born puppies and raised them to about 4 months of age. No problem bathing dirty pups, and handling high energy pups. Full time aircraft mechanic day shift currently so I’ll be available mostly weekends and afternoons for your companion needs. Both night and day hours work good for me. If anything just communicate with me and we can try and work around any obstacles. Plenty of love to give and ensure stress free environment while your pet is in my care. I’m able to manage small to medium-large dogs ensuring my and their safety.

About: I was blessed with a feline friend at the age of 2. Although I do not remember all of our times together, she has been by my side through all of life's up's and down's. We have even experienced the responsibility of sharing our home with 2 more companions: a Maltese and a Chihuahua! It is quite a random pool of different beings! Nevertheless, we all seem to get along. I do all I can to ensure their well being is top notch. You really grow a love for your companion(s) and it's hard to not care for them. I am full time and have no restrictions to my schedule. I am available as early as 6:00am and can accommodate appointments during sundown. I am easy to communicate with and straightforward with negotiations. It is a dogs fantasy: a large neighborhood with quiet streets to explore, 2 nearby parks to frolic and play, with a dog park frequently visited by other furry friends and their owners.
