Dog Walking in South Hadley

“Wonderful reliable sitter very saavy about dogs! Will use her again.”

Ellen P.

“Responsive, kind, courteous, and was great with my pup who had a bit of extra enthusiasm because of being cooped up inside with sickly me all morning. Took Calcifer through some snowy trails in our backyard with ease and aplomb, leaving me with a pup ready for cuddles while I slurp my soup. I couldn't be more grateful for the help!!!”

Anastasia D.

“Hallie came last minute to walk my pup so I could go to a grad party. Excellent as always! My dog came home happy as hell and perfectly worn out.”

Amelia K.

“Than you, Robin, for your professionalism and great care of Lucy. I appreciated having someone trustworthy and dependable stopping by to take care of her while I was working.”

“My dog was in a great mood when I got home. The walker secured him on return even though I forgot to tell them to, which is good because otherwise he will find and eat the most poisonous thing in the house.”

Melissa F.

“Jacklyn has been an excellent dog walker! She sends a detailed review of each walk and was very accommodating when I needed a second dog to join. My dog has really enjoyed having walking with her.”

About: I have loved dogs since I can remember—I used to read dog encyclopedias as a kid! My own dog and sidekick, Miguel, is a cute rescue with a pronounced underbite. He lives with my family far away, so I am excited to provide services (walking, dog sitting) for pets nearby! Over the summer, I am working remotely and thus have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I am never away from home for more than two hours at a time. All dogs who have stayed at my apartment have been treated as my own; no couch or bed is off limits! 3+ walks a day, and a dog park nearby!

“Ash was so nice and dealt with quite a few logistical changes in walk coordination. Prudence was so grateful for the walks. Thanks again Ash!”

About: Patience. I understand every fur baby has a personality. I will take the time to get to know them. I will communicate with fur parents to understand their care needs. I can be very flexible. We can work together to meet the needs of the parents and fur babies. Multiple visits in a day are available. Walks, feeding and limited grooming available.

About: I've loved and cared for dogs for most of my life, and currently have a Chihuahua mix named Chico and a cat named Frankie. I'm a good-hearted and easygoing person excited to spend my free time with some lovable pooches! Chico is an 11-year-old rescue, who loves ice cream and burying himself in blankets. Frankie is a snoozy indoor cat, but loves playing with Chico occasionally. For all of my bookings, I like to provide lots of attention to each pet, and create a comfortable environment for them. I’ve had a ton of fun with the pets I've met so far, and I would love to meet some more furry friends and owners soon! I currently work from home full time in the healthcare industry. I am looking to offer sitting services in my free time, but can likely be flexible with my schedule. Safety for all pets is my biggest priority, whether they are my own or yours. I’m open to any information that would make your pets feel more comfortable, and would love to answer any questions during a meet and greet before a service.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, birds and all breeds of animals since I was young. I love animals and the light they bright to our lives- who doesn't want their fur-baby cared for and safe while we’re away?!? With years on hands on experience in a veterinary office, I have become well versed in grooming (nail trims, bathes, brushing), behavior and medication administration. Each day I learn more and more about our furry friends and how to give back to them, so they can continue to give their love to us:) Check out my calendar on my profile to see when I’m available for visits! With a little heads-up, I’m often able to squeeze in extra visits outside of my usual days and times. While providing my services, I ensure I tailor my car to each pets specific needs. I like to ask lots of introduction questions to really get a good feel for your pets lifestyle and comfort level. I like to stick to their routines—meals, walks, playtime, and snuggles—so everything feels familiar and comfortable as it would normally. It's important to give plenty of attention, cuddles, and enrichment during each visit.

About: I have been a pet owner since I was in my 20s. Over the years I have rescued a number of animals in need, both dogs and cats. I have also helped friends with their animals, including taking them to the vet and watching them when their owners were out of town. With my own dog, we have a routine that includes multiple walks per day, as well as at least one car ride. I believe in following a pet's routine. I am free in the summer and on the weekends and in the evenings. It all depends on what someone needs in a person caring for their pet. I believe in following what a pet owner needs for the comfort of their animal. Depending on the need of your animal, I can take care of walks, bringing them to the park, feeding them, and whatever else they need.

“Saige aka Ziggy was an absolute dog whisperer. Ziggy took great care of my dog, which allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation. If you’re looking for a dog sitter or walker, stop searching. One report card wrote “An aggressive dog approached Boone, I stepped in front of Boone and the other dog ran off.” I mean talk about CARE & SAFETY. ⭐️ x 5”

About: My love for dogs and exercise naturally led to the road of pet care giver. I’ve had vast experiences with various dog sizes and ages and loved them all. I have pet sit for neighbors and family friends since the age of 12 and that in fact has made me closer to them. My days have currently opened up and I have plenty of time to walk, pet sit, and play around with your dog. With me, your dog will be the number 1 priority. I have a fenced backyard with ample spaces for your pups to play. I also have 2 adorable small pups of my own that are always welcoming of new and old friends.

About: As a child, I owned almost every pet imaginable - from house cats to Rottweilers to lizards to ferrets! Bless my poor mother's heart - we practically had a small zoo at our house! As an adult I owned a cat for 5 years and also "dog /cat sat" for friends and families many times. I'm an all-around animal lover who is comfortable with many different types of pet care. I'm a stay-at-home mom with plenty of flexibility on both weekdays and weekends to provide care for your pets. My availability is limited on federal holidays. I live in a pet-friendly house with a fenced-in back yard. The neighborhood is quiet and safe for walks. I also have access to a nearby park.

About: My first responsibility I had as a 4 year old was feeding our family dog, Shannon. Since then, I not only helped feed, walk and care for my own pets, but have helped others as well. Whether it was classroom fish, or boisterous double-dog walks, I always love making a pet's day brighter. I take pets' well-being seriously and like to do all I can to make your pet feel at home and worry-free in your absence. During the school year, I have limited availability during evenings and weekends. During the summer and school vacations, I am available weekdays, weeknights, and on most weekends. I offer drop-ins for cats, dogs, bunnies, and other small animals. I also offer dog walking. I am an avid athlete so I am happy to take on energized dogs who like long walks. I have experience administering oral medication and injections.
