Dog Walking Upper Hill

About: I have volunteered at a couple of local animal shelters over the duration of 2 years for multiple hours a day! While I only have a certain amount of professional experience, I also own 2 domestic long haired cats who I’ve raised for the last 4 years. I specialize in cat care on a private setting and dog care on a professional setting. I have many available days within my weekly calendar to fit pet sitting and pet walking into my schedule. I have open availability until further notice! Please feel free to reach out and we can make something work. I currently own two beautiful domestic long haired cats. Their daily routine consists of a strong high moisture diets, supplements that cater to their needs, rotation of toys when under supervision, 100% cat safe toys when unsupervised, cat scratchers, fur and dental care, routine vet visits, litter box scoops multiple times a day, and more.

About: Hey there pet parents! I’m a fear free positive reinforcement dog trainer & owner of a small business where I provide all kinds of pet services. I have experience giving injections, working with paralyzed animals, and ones with aggressive behavior. I have my own fur babies so trust me when I say your dog(s)/cat(s) will have a great time and of course be in good hands. I do NOT discriminate against breeds I am a proud pitty mom. Never have to worry about someone judging your pup. If you have cats, small animals, or reptiles the more the better! Let's work together! Can't wait to meet your furbabies! When taking care of your pets I will keep you updated with photos and videos so you know they are always having a great time. Pet care fits into my daily routine by making sure I put in the time for animals of my own as well as helping you with yours. I care for the animals of my clients in my home as well as their home by treating them as if they were my very own. I provide them with the necessities they need and make sure they have the attention they need as well.

About: I am now available Full-Time to love and take care of your wonderful and adorable babies ! I am, Reliable, Professional, Trustworthy, and I’m always available day and night Your pet(s) will always have 100% of my attention, we will go for 30 minute to an hour walk as often as possible. I always let them on my bed and furniture if you allow them to. I can easily crate your pets if needed. I do not drive so I unfortunately cannot pick-up/drop-off your pets. I always walk them on a leash. All pets are allowed on furniture.

About: I have always had pets since I was a young girl. Dogs, cats, and even a rabbit named Honey! My passion and love for animals has inevitably made me the designated pet sitter amongst my family and friends, as they know I will always give their babies the upmost care and attention. My philosophy has always been: Your pet isn’t “just a pet” they are family and they have their own feelings and needs. When you’re away, I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re being cared for with the same patience, attention, and affection I would give my own. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, routine, quirks, and individual needs, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions that you may require. You can also expect plenty of communication from me, including consistent updates, photos, and quick check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, happy, and comfortable, so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup, earn their trust, and give them some extra love and companionship when you need to get away! I have a small business and create my own schedule so I am very flexible on a daily and weekly basis. I prefer a few days notice for any overnight stays or cancellations, otherwise I’m open and available for you and your pups! I typically like to follow the routine that the owners have set in place regarding walks, potty breaks, feed times, wind down, and anything else that might establish a sense of normalcy for your dog even when you aren’t around. I’m always willing to offer treats and other things if recommended or approved.

About: Hi, my name is Marley, I am currently studying my graduate degree at Springfield College. Since I was 10 years old, I have volunteered at local dog and cat shelters whenever I have a couple open hours within the day: CPR (Companion Pet Rescue, Southbury CT), Heartland Humane Society (Corvallis OR), and Safe Haven Humane Society (Tangent OR). I have been dog sitting and cat sitting for local families for over 5 years just to help out and absolutely love it. I am always responsible of a pet’s health and prioritize them always. I currently have a part-time job where I do not work longer 5 hours in a day, I am also taking classes come September 24, but will easily prioritize checking in on your animals and making the time to care for them! I think that one of the most important jobs as a pet sitter is making sure nothing is rushed, which is why I spend as much time as needed with the animals I watch. I think it is crucial to make sure the animals are happy and healthy both when I arrive and when I leave. I love to take dogs on long walks, play with them outside, and give them the care they need (from feeding to outside time). As for cats, I think they deserve the same amount of attention and I will never pass up the opportunity to give a cat some pets!

“Paul has been a great asset to getting the stimulation my German shepherd was bred to need! Both of my dogs respond so well to him. They’re very Intuitive dogs that instantly pick up on someone’s nervousness or lack of confidence - but Paul comes in with a confident but clam nature that they sense immediately. Both my dogs have struggled with reactivity - but have had no issues with him.”

About: I have taken care of and had pets my whole life. I’ve had small animals to large. I have 14 pets of my own at the moment from hermit crabs, a bird, bearded dragon, guinea pigs, cats and 3 dogs. I love animals. I currently own my own business so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to take care of your fur baby, so timing of day will never be an issue! I will watch your pets at all time so they don’t get into mischief. I as a pet owner know they can try to run off or eat something they can’t so constant supervision is a must.

About: I have a 6 year old Jack Russel/Chihuahua that is the sweetest most loving girl! I have trained her myself since she was a puppy, I have learned SO much. I have a schedule that’s a little all over the place but I’m willing to work out different times through the week that best suits you and your dog. It’s something that would have to be discussed based on your wants and needs for your dog. All dogs are different, every dog owner is different. But I would be sure to feed, give them water and walk as needed.

About: I graduated in 2018 from Umass Amherst with my Bachelors of science Pre-veterinary medicine. I have worked as a technician as well as a veterinary receptionist in animal hospitals. I am confident handling most animals, livestock, birds, dogs, cats and I have amateur skills with reptiles and horses. I took a small animal CPR course and can administer medications. I have personally owned 3 dogs, a bird, and many fish throughout my life. I am looking for extra work and have a very flexible schedule. I will typically be available most days and weekends, so don't hesitate to ask! I have a pre-veterinary bachelors degree and plenty of experience handling small pets I have a semi fenced large yard in the suburb area. I have two runs set up in the backyard, both allowing plenty of freedom. I have one dog, Digby. He is a mixed King Charles Cavalier spaniel and poodle. Digby is 6 years old and about 30lbs. He is sort of timid around other dogs but once he knows everything is safe, he loves to play! I live with my mother and my father.

“Thank you for the great communication and taking such great care of our Cooper!”

About: I have owned and cared for many pets as well as working for the forest park zoo tending to animals and socializing with them, as well as working as a dog groomer and a dog kennel attendant. I am very passionate and serious about pet care, our fluffy friends deserve the best. I have plenty of experience with elderly and special needs animals, as well as experience administering medication. As someone who owns many animals of my own, a dog, a cat, a multitude of small animals and reptiles, my entire life consists of caring for animals. It’s my main passion. I am available for bookings all day Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and available for mornings every other day of the week! I am a trustworthy person able to remember the schedule of your pets and any extra care they may need. Due to working in grooming for so long, I am excellent in time management and understanding the body language of dogs. I love to take my own dogs outside and play with them with a ball or a toy to help them get enrichment. I am also incredibly interested in training and find respect and boundaries to be very important when forming a relationship with an animal.

About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish etc. My biggest joke is I take care of other people’s pets so I don’t bring home any other animals. I own 3 cats myself. I work with all breeds and love what I do. I take care of all pets as if they were my own. I work full time at WestMass ElderCare. I am at work for 8 hours. . On my breaks I love giving pets and kisses to the fur babies! I own a 1 bedroom condo. I board on a case to case basis. Your dog must be ok with a leash, somewhat smaller space and be ok ignoring cats. (I own 3)

About: Dogs have and will always be a huge part of my life. We got our first family dog when I was just 3 years old and the rest is history. My husband Jack is extremely passionate about animals as well and is my partner in all of this so you get two dog sitters for the price of one. Between the two of us your pet will get so much love, cuddles & exercise. We guarantee a level of attention and care that I feel confident your pet won’t get anywhere else; between this and Rover taking it’s fee our prices might be on the high side but they reflect our level of personalized and professional level of care. I also just want to add that our love for dogs extends to all animals so cats etc are all welcome to come hang with us :) Important Note: if you are reaching out for house sitting my husband and I only take those if we both are allowed to stay the night. We prefer to do this for safety as well as enabling the best care possible for your pet. Your pets will be my top priority & my main focus when they stay with us! I feel pretty confident that they will get more quality time, attention & lovin with me then any other pet sitter! I have a smoke free home and do not have any dogs currently living at my house so your pets will be my only focus! Also a child free home!

About: I’m so excited to meet you and your furry friend! As a dedicated pet sitter, my goal is to make sure your dog feels loved, safe, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playful fetch sessions, or just cozy cuddle time, I’ll treat your pup as if they were my own. Every tail wag, happy bark, and joyful moment matters to me, and I can’t wait to give your dog the care and attention they deserve. Let’s make their time with me an experience full of fun and love! I board/walk on a FT basis, I have 12yrs of experience and I would love the chance to sit your pup when needed. Can’t wait to meet you. I treat each and every pet like their my own. I’m very passionate about my love for dogs and I’ve have many since a kid.

About: I’ve always loved dogs and genuinely enjoy caring for them. Building a bond with each dog is one of my favorite parts of pet sitting, and I treat every pup like they’re my own. I have a large, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run, play, and have fun. My goal is to make sure your dog feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, so you can have peace of mind. I work part-time as a Personal Care Assistant (PCA), where I help care for clients and support their daily needs. My job has a flexible schedule, which allows me to have open availability. This flexibility makes it easy for me to fit in dog walks and pet companionship throughout the week My home is a safe, clean, and welcoming place where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed. I have a large, fully fenced in yard with plenty of space for dogs to run, play, and explore safely. I also have a friendly Golden Retriever of my own who loves other dogs, but I’m always happy to keep dogs separated if needed for their comfort, safety, or your preference. My goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where every dog gets the care and attention they deserve.

About: Hello! I have 30 years of experience caring for pets. I own an 80lb lover-girl named Lobster and a 10lb rascal-cat named Trinity (from The Matrix!) My schedule is very flexible and I'm available for couch snuggles, energetic playdates, and walkies. My furry companions have other members of the family to care for them at home if I'm pet-sitting overnight. I can drop-in your place, go for walks, stay overnight, give your cat snuggles, or (with your approval) bring your pup(s) to my large fenced-in backyard!

“Kayla took such great care of my pup ❤️ Kayla was wonderful to work with - always quick to respond, polite & friendly, and my pup loved her so I knew he was in good hands!”

About: I have cared for dogs since I got my first puppy when I was 12 years old. Since then I have volunteered for several years at a wolfdog sanctuary. When I worked at Hawaii Volcano National Park I volunteered to walk the Park hunting dogs and clean their enclosure several times a week. A have dog sat for a very elderly,infirm English mastiff that could no longer stand on its own. I am very experienced in getting puppers to take medication. I have done house/dog sat for up to a month at a time for 2 dogs and 3 cats, making sure they are all fed and entertained. I absolutely adore animals, but particularly love dogs. I am happy when they are happy. I am currently working towards making pet care more of a career as I transition out of my current job. I am a government employee who is looking to make a change in my work life. During the current shutdown, I am available anytime for all pet care needs. I have just moved into my first home with my fiance! We have a fenced backyard and a nice walkable neighborhood. Inside all of the furniture is dog friendly, so your puppers can snuggle up if they wish or have room to themselves. My number 1 priority is the comfort and happiness of the dog and I will always do my best to provide a safe and fun environment for them.

About: I've taken care of cats my entire life! Since I was little I always had cats along with 1 dog. I just recently handled kitty hospice with my cat and managed medications 2x a day.
