“Brooke was an absolute delight! She was incredibly helpful and accommodating, making me feel at ease leaving my dog with her for five days so I could finally enjoy a much-needed family vacation. I truly appreciated Brooke’s check-ins during this time, ensuring that my dog was doing well. It was a huge relief to know that my dog was in good hands.”
“Jessica and Josie were wonderful with Miss Ruby. Even understanding her occasional accident in the house as coming from anxiety. Possibly due to construction noises which were expected to be gone before Miss Ruby’s visit. It changed my perspective from paying for Dogcare to paying to have Miss Ruby share her joy with Josie and Jessica and their family. ???”
“Ozzy had a wonderful time with Nicole and her family! Nicole was relaxed and welcoming, and encouraged Ozzy to feel at home. The weather was bitter cold but Ozzy got all his energy out tearing around their fenced backyard. Nicole was very communicative, sending frequent updates and photos, Highly recommended!”
“I was very nervous about the prospect of leaving Naki with anyone but a relative, especially since I haven't used Rover for any of their services. However, once I got to know Patti, my anxiety instantly went away. Her calm and kind demeanor brought me comfort as I knew Naki would be in good hands. Naki was with Patti for a weekend, and she would send me updates every couple of hours with pictures of him doing various activities. I could tell Naki was completely relaxed and comfortable during his stay. Patti genuinely loves animals and I will definitely be a returning customer. Thank you for everything, Patti.”
“Karl and his dogs are very welcoming. Karl’s yard is well suited for the dogs with a large space and a fence. Karl communicates timely and goes out of his way to ensure all goes well. All the dogs got along well and our dogs adjusted well on both sends of their stay.”
“I had never done a Rover sitter before, so was naturally a little nervous. But the moment Heidi and Sandy (my puggle) met, I knew it was going to be a great experience. She immediately connected with Sandy and made me feel at ease right away that Sandy was in great hands. Heidi really made me feel I made the right choosing with choosing a sitter in the area. Communication was quick, and she updated me with photos of my happy pup. Thanks Heidi!”
“I have no words for Mahayla! Couldn't ask for anyone better than you!! She went above and beyond for Chow and Zoe in their stay.We know 100% sure they will be safe and well taken care when they are with her.”
“Out of the past 10 dogsitters we’ve used, John is the best. We got 5+ pictures of a day clearly showing our dogs were happy and having fun. John noticed and mentioned a half dozen things that showed us he was attentive to our dog’s needs and sensitive enough to help them when they were in need. Our dogs came back visibly less stressed than with other dogsitters, so we will be using John from now on!”
“Christian is great! He is patient, chill, and very good with dogs! I loved that our dog wanted to go back inside with him when we had to leave; that is a great sign!”
“Yenifer took excellent care of my dog. He was so happy with her! She made sure she communicated everyday with us during the stay, sent us pictures and updates. We are very happy with her services and would strongly recommend her. Thank you, Yenifer.”
“I needed a last minute boarding for my dog Enzo, as my family and I were going out of town. I found sandra on rover and she was available. We met the morning we drop of our dog Enzo. Sandra’s pleasant personality and lovely home gave me a sense of comfort and that my dog Enzo was gonna be good taken care of. she took really good care of Enzo, sent me pictures and video and I knew Enzo was confortable and happy . I really recommend Sandra and will use her service again for future boarding. Thank you so much Sandra ,”
“I booked Rachel last minute fully expecting for her to not respond or say she was available and she responded within minutes for my last second request. She and her family took excellent care of Hank and sent me several pictures and updates through out. 10/10. Very happy to have found someone trust worthy i can leave my dog with and have no worries without feeling like i am burdening friends or family.”
“Carmela was super nice with my elder dog. My chihuahua suffered violence from a teenager and now his behavior is not the best. Carmela was so comprehensive and knew how to manage him to keep him feel safe in her home. I am so thankful that she received my baby in her home for the time I had to travel.”
“Eric and Abigale (and their daughter) took great care of Willow. Willow felt right at home as soon as she got to their house and their duaghter was so sweet with Willow. We will defintely use Eric and Abigale again if we are back in the Chicopee area.”
“Heather was fantastic! I needed a last minute booking and she and her family were superb. My pup came home so happy and content!! Thank you!! Would recommend Heather to everyone.”
“Tetiana is an amazing petsitter! She is communicative, attentive to details and, most importantly, has a loving and giving heart. She and her lovely mom Maria treated my Edna like their own, with play and cuddles and outdoor adventures — many pictures clearly showing to me Edna’s enjoyment. I hope Edna can return to Tetiana’s and I highly recommend her.”
“Kathleen was great! She has an amazing property for the dogs, keeps you updated with tons of pictures and videos of them, and is such a nice person that you know shes taking care of your pups as if they were her own, will definitely be using her moving forward!”

“Emily came through for me and Beans at the last minute! She was great about sending pictures and videos while I was away, and I came home to a happy and well taken care of kitty!”
About: I’ve cared for cats in both professional kennel settings and in clients’ homes, giving me experience with felines of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I’ve house-sat for a cat with diabetes, managing daily care and keeping them comfortable and stress-free. I also work with cats who board in the kennel setting, so I’m used to feeding routines, behavior monitoring, and keeping their spaces clean and cozy. From administering medication to scooping litter boxes and giving extra love to shy or senior cats, I make sure every kitty feels safe, understood, and treated like family. Whether your cat needs calm companionship, structured care, or just someone who respects their unique personality, I’m here to keep them happy and safe.
“I left Leona in charge of Romeo and my apartment while in Boston for major surgery. Leona was very responsible and took just as good of care of Romeo as well as my plants and living space as I would have. She provided peace of mind which I’m grateful for. Romeo looks forward to seeing her again!”
“Cam was nothing short of amazing! We have an old fuddy duddy cat who has never liked anyone except for us. However, the first night Cam spent at our house he was actively seeking pats from Cam! We even have photographic proof, thanks to Cam managing to snap a photo whilst actively petting him. We have another lovely petsitter who has literally been trying to make friends with Buster for 4 years and he still won't let her near him. Cam clearly has a magical touch.”
About: i consider myself a true cat person! I absolutely love cats and understand that each one has a unique personality. I have three cats of my own, including: • One who requires medication, so I’m comfortable and patient with administering care • One who is shy and takes time to warm up, so I know how to move slowly and build trust • One who is a friendly, social guy who loves attention Because of this, I’m very in tune with reading cat behavior and giving them exactly what they need, whether that’s playtime, affection, or simply respecting their space. As a teacher, I’m naturally responsible, organized, and detail-oriented, which means I follow instructions carefully and communicate clearly. You can expect consistent updates, reliability, and a calm, patient approach with your pets. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals. I take the time to build trust with each pet and make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved. I know they’re your family and I will treat them as my own.
About: Have owned dogs for over 20 years, pet sit for friends, family, and neighbors. I am over cautious and protective when it comes to animals, I'm also active so love walking dogs, throwing a ball for them, or taking them to our local lake for a swim. I have tons of patience for shy dogs, I have dealt with rescue dogs and know when to get close or not to an animal. I have never had an incident where I have had a dog become aggressive with me. I have taken my own dog to obedience school a few times and learned a few key trips for working with difficult dogs or puppies. I have taken care of puppies within the past three years and am comfortable with the extra care they require. I have a solid connection with our local vet and emergency animal hospital and am able to handle dogs who need shots or medications administered. I work from home and have several pets already needing care. Bathroom breaks, walks, ball throwing, catnip time, all of it already happens in my home. We have several pet fences within our home and a puppy proof first floor. If a pet is okay of leash then we walk them around our 4 acres throwing a ball or whatever the pet likes. If a pet is not okay off leash, then we just walk them on a leash on our land every 1.5 or 2 hours or as needed. Water bowls are everywhere, no chemicals are on site within reach of curious puppies, and no cars move very quickly on our driveway and everyone who does arrive at our home knows we have several pets and need to slow down. We have owned dogs for over 25 years and have never had any of our pets get injured.
About: The family for my last petsit said this: "[Our dog] had nothing but wonderful things to say about you, she was very happy when we got home, that means she didn't feel upset at all. Yay!!! Thank you again!! " I've cared for households with multiple pets, including cats, dogs, multiple cats, multiple dogs, and a combination of the above. I've often had people reach back out to me to sit for them again. I love to follow your instructions as closely as possible to help out your animals with the stress of owner absence. I find it important to take time to play with and sit with animals. I'm familiar with giving pets medication, whether through pill pockets, food, or other methods. If your kitties are particular about litter cleaning, I am happy to provide that more frequently as well. I work with energy and empathy in my other jobs, so I am able to bring a calm presence for animals and pay attention to their energy when caring for them. I value consent-based interaction, so I allow animals to warm up to me before petting them. I have flexible work, so I can arrange to stay with your pets or drop in at your convenience. One of my jobs works well with being at home, so I can stay put. I tend to lock doors, being familiar with city living. Integrity and trust are paramount to me, so you can trust that I will treat your home well and honor any areas you don't want me to be in. I know it's a lot to trust a stranger in your home while you are away -- I am happy to provide references and other information to make you feel safe. You know your pet best, so I pay attention to how you make sure your pets stay inside to keep it that way. I am always happy to text updates and pictures :)
“This is my fourth or fifth time having Lori look after my cat Finn, and I can never trust any other sitter but her. I always come home to a happy, healthy cat. Lori is always extremely communicative and sends the cutest pictures!”
“Matt stayed with our two cats and administered insulin to our oldest cat Mojo despite some challenges with Mojo being uncooperative. Matt was good at communicating any issues and seeking help. He cared for our house very well and left it clean and in good shape. I would recommend Matt.”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life other than when I was a student, so you’re getting experience above all else. I can drop in for feeds, play time, take them to vet appointments while you're at work or away, stay the night if they get separation anxiety, whatever they need! Even if they just need company for an hour, don’t hesitate to get in touch!
“Marina was an excellent choice for a week of daily drop-ins with our senior cat. She took care of feeding and tidying up after him, and the super-cute photos she included with the daily update cards showed us how much he enjoyed social time with her as well! Marina also brought in the occasional package that arrived, a big help to the non-felines here. I fully recommend Marina and would book with her again.”
About: I have pet/house sat multiple times over the past several years for friends and family, and have worked with several types of animals from small critters like guinea pigs and ferrets, cats, and even large dog breeds. I also have 2 years experience volunteering for a local shelter in socialization and vet transport, 3 years experience working for a doggy daycare and boarding facility, and I currently work part time for another local animal shelter. I am an experienced owner of dogs, cats, ferrets, chickens, guinea pigs, and more. I also have experience as a wedding dog handler, and would be happy to offer this service if requested so your furry companion can accompany you or someone you know on yours or their special day without any added stress, please let me know if this is something you'd be interested in! I currently work part time so I have lots of time to play with your pup, and hopefully can build savings towards a larger space to meet more people's needs! I am always looking to learn, grow, and provide better care for animals. Animal welfare is very important to me. At this point in time, due to the space I'm only able to accommodate smaller breeds that generally can get along with others. I do have a small fenced in yard, but I also have the bike trail and nearby hiking trails readily available, your dog will need to be on leash at all times when outside on walks/hikes, I do not provide "off-leash" trail experience as a safety precaution, thank you for your understanding! I am happy to provide pictures and updates of your pup whenever requested, please never be afraid to reach out!

All my pets are given enrichment activities throughout the day. They’re also stimulated with play/exercise. I know dog and cat body language.

I will follow your schedule and instructions exactly as is because, you know your pet best! I can bath, walk, feed, administer medication, and give my full attention to your babies ☺️
“Alexis is the absolute best. I went out of the country for a week and a half, and Alexis dropped in to take care of my cat while I was away. She went above and beyond at every visit, sending pictures, videos, and truly detailed updates, which put me at ease every single time. She is incredibly warm, considerate, and thoughtful in every way. I will absolutely book her again to come visit my cat!”

“We were traveling through and Kristin was wonderful for a last minute doggy daycare visit! She has a beautiful property, 2 wonderful dogs that Stevie played and cuddled with and provided a much needed rest day for Stevie from all the travel commotion:)”
“She did such a great job! Nozzle came home so tired and I was a happy dog Mom bShe was able to take him at such a short notice and was a life saver for us. I would recommend her to anyone. She’s very flexible with schedules too!”
About: I am good at working with all sizes, ages and breeds of dogs. Looking forward to give some love to your four-legged family member: lots of cuddles, play, walks. I've dog sat quite a bit - dogs of all sizes and ages from puppies to older dogs that needed regular medicine. I will follow your instructions to the letter to make sure your dog feels as safe and happy as possible until your return. I know how hard it can be on owners to leave a beloved member of the family behind and how hard it is on a dog to miss their owner. My goal is for your pet to feel as safe and secure as possible while you're away. I have a large fenced in back yard and dog beds. Treats (if allowed) and toys. I grew up with lots of animals - three large dogs: a Malamute, Samoyed and their puppy plus three cats and worked on a horse ranch. I had my own darling Max a Cavalier until he passed a couple of years ago. I work from home so your dog will have plenty of companionship and attention from morning to evening. I usually walk dogs according to the schedule they are used to. In between, they can hang with me. IFeeding times will also coincide with your instructions. I'm an early riser so you are welcome to drop your dog off (with notice) as early as 7:30 am. I have a large three bedroom home with an huge fenced back yard on a quiet street near trails. It's single floor so no stairs for older dogs to contend with.
“Shawna was a great sitter. My dogs are never tired. But they were worn out when I picked them up so I know they got plenty of exercise and attention. I highly recommend Shawna!!”
“Moxie had a wonderful time with John. She came home tuckered out and by the pictures looked like she had a great time. He was very professional and personable, we would highly recommend John.”
“Emma was great!! She took my two puppies, one being only 3 months old and they look like they had the best time. She kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and videos and how they were doing. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Our dogs had a blast at Nicole’s place. They got to run around in her nice fenced in yard, played a lot of fetch and got to cool off in the kiddie pool. Nicole and her family are obviously dog lovers and I was so happy we left our girls with them. I would highly recommend Nicole to care for your pups as if they were her own.”
About: We have one year of experience caring for small dogs. We are responsible, attentive, and ensure a safe, loving and confrable environment at all times We work from home, so we have plenty of time to take care of pets.

“I’m so glad to have connected with Jesse (and so is my pup)! I could tell right away that he loves and genuinely cares about any dogs who are lucky enough to hang out with him. And Sadie, my slightly nervous/sometimes hyper rescue settled right in with him and his family. Thanks again Jesse! We’ll be back!”
“I’m so thankful I found Tetiana. I left my 5-month puppy for the first time with her and I could not be happier. She took care of her with love and so much warmth. I received many pictures thought the day. Thank you Tetiana!!!”
About: Our family dog just moved out with my daughter, so my grandpuppy 😂. Thankfully he comes to stay regularly for extended visits! Most of my photos are of him, truly spoiled & loved. I’ve cared for animals most of my life. I’m available for walking, boarding, or checking in daily while you’re at work to feed or let out. Flexible availability, reliable and kind. I have very flexible availability for boarding, house sitting and checking in and walking. I only work 15-20 hours a week, so I’m home most of the time! Let me know your needs and I’m sure we can work something out that’s best for your pets needs. I have a smoke free, very tidy home. I live in a townhouse that is surrounded by woods and has close proximity to walking trails. You can provide a crate if needed for boarding. I will welcome gentle, people-friendly dogs, who are house & potty trained only. No overly dirty or muddy dogs please! Thanks for your understanding.
“Amed was prompt with communication, and was sweet with our dog. He took her for a walk and the dog park, and she was tuckered out after. It worked out well to have Ahmed watch our dog while we were visiting from out of town to see a concert. Thank you Amed!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs most of my life and truly treat them like family. I grew up in a home with four dogs, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I also adopted and lovingly cared for a difficult senior dachshund for years, which gave me valuable experience with patience, senior dog needs, routines, and extra attentiveness. Today I have a large Bernedoodle, so I’m confident handling bigger dogs as well as energetic pups who need exercise and structure. I’m active and love taking dogs on walks, runs, and outdoor time when appropriate, while also making sure they get plenty of affection, snuggles, and supervision. What sets me apart is that I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love dogs. I understand every dog is different, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I work remotely from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be present throughout the day for the pets in my care. Because I’m home most of the time, dogs get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship instead of being left alone for long stretches. My flexible routine also makes it easy for me to stick to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I’m able to provide attentive, consistent care and make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving home environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. I have a friendly, social dog who enjoys having visitors and does well with other dogs, while always making sure introductions are done thoughtfully and safely. I have a yard for outdoor time, and while it is not fenced, I use a secure runner/tie-out system and close supervision so dogs can safely enjoy fresh air, potty breaks, and time outside. I also keep dogs leashed on walks and anytime they are outdoors for added safety. If your dog is crate-trained or more comfortable with their own space, I’m happy to accommodate crating and follow your normal home routine. I always aim to keep pets on their regular schedule for feeding, exercise, rest, and any medications or special instructions. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, attentiveness, and lots of love.
About: My experience in pet care began during my childhood on my grandparents’ farm, where I was surrounded by a wide variety of animals every day. From an early age, I learned the importance of responsibility, compassion, and attentive care. I gained hands-on experience feeding, grooming, and nurturing animals of all kinds—including dogs, cats, livestock, and small animals—each with their own unique needs and personalities. More than just daily routines, I developed strong, loving bonds with the animals I cared for, treating them as family. That foundation shaped my deep understanding of animal behavior and my commitment to providing patient, personalized, and reliable care for every pet I work with. I bring a deep love and understanding of dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From playful pups to sweet seniors, I tailor each walk to fit their needs. I prioritize safety, communication, and fun—always engaging with your dog and even teaching basic cues like sit, stay, and wait during our adventures. I’m passionate about nature and I believe dogs thrive when they can safely explore their environment —sniffing the breeze, feeling the grass under their paws, and soaking up the world around them. I’m dependable, energetic, and treat every dog like my own. Whether it’s a gentle stroll or a playful outing, your pup will be in great hands and have a tail-wagging good time! Dog walking fits perfectly into my current routine. I’m a part-time healthcare worker with a consistent schedule, working from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Outside of those hours, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability and plenty of time to dedicate to your pup. I truly enjoy incorporating walks into my day—they keep me active, bring me joy, and let me connect with more wonderful dogs. Your dog will receive dependable, loving care from someone who’s already made this a part of daily life. Safety, trust, and a positive environment are at the heart of every walk I take. I prioritize clean, open, and dog-friendly spaces—like the Rail-Trail, local parks, and secure walking paths—where pups can enjoy fresh air and nature safely. I always use leash control, stay highly observant of their behavior, and make sure every walk is calm, comfortable, and secure. Whether we’re exploring a quiet trail or playing at a safe dog park, your dog’s well-being is my top priority. You can trust that your pup is in caring, capable, and experienced hands every step of the way.

About: I’ve spent the last 5 years working in professional dog kennels. My first kennel was in Berlin, MA, and now I work at a local kennel here in western MA. During that time, I’ve cared for dogs of every size, age, and personality. From shy seniors who need gentle patience to high-energy wiggle butts who never slow down. As a kennel supervisor, I’ve handled dogs with medical needs, administered medications safely and on schedule, and monitored behavior to keep every pup calm and comfortable. I’ve also been trusted to run the kennel independently, managing feeding routines, cleaning, enrichment, and safety from open to close. Now, I’m excited to bring that same level of professional, loving care into your home. Whether your dog needs a simple walk, extra patience, medication support, or someone who treats them like family, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved one walk, one wag, one kiss at a time. I’m available 7 days a week, almost 24 hours a day, outside of my kennel shifts. I work five 8‑hour shifts per week, and everything outside those hours is open for walks, drop‑ins, and overnight care. Availability: • Open 7 days/week • Early mornings, afternoons, evenings, and late nights available • Flexible scheduling around my kennel shifts • Advance requests welcome — I can accommodate most times! Now that I’ve graduated, I’m able to take on more walks, drop‑ins, and extended care. I love what I do, and I’m committed to giving your pets reliable, loving, stress‑free care every single visit. <3 When I’m caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal, comforting, and stress‑free as possible. I follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and understood while you’re away. Here’s what you can expect: Routine‑Focused Care — I stick to your pet’s usual feeding, walking, play, and medication schedule so everything feels familiar and calm. Clear Instructions Welcomed — Written instructions (paper or text) are always helpful. I’m happy to follow detailed routines, special notes, or anything that keeps your pet comfortable. Open Communication — I keep communication easy and consistent. If anything comes up or you’d like updates, I’m always reachable and responsive. Optional Update Photos — I can send pictures and check‑ins so you can see how your furry family member is doing and feel connected while you’re away. Walks & Outdoor Time — I tailor every walk to what your dog enjoys, whether it’s relaxed neighborhood strolls, peaceful nature walks, or extra sniff‑time to burn off energy. Medication & Special Care — I’m very comfortable with pets who have medical conditions (cats or dogs!), including administering medications safely and on time — even insulin. Clean & Comfortable Spaces — I keep litter boxes clean, fluff up dog beds, refresh water bowls, tidy feeding areas, and make sure your pet’s space stays cozy and stress‑free. Behavior Awareness — With my kennel background, I’m trained to read body language and keep pets comfortable, especially shy, senior, or anxious animals. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved until you’re home again.

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(:

“Michael is an amazing dog walker for Theo. He is always available for us, even if it’s only a day or so warning and Theodore absolutely adores him. He sends photo updates to me which makes me so happy to see Theo when I’m gone from work! Thank you Michael!!!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mother ran an animal rescue, and I was fortunate to spend my childhood helping care for, socialize, and train animals of all kinds; primarily dogs and cats. This experience taught me not only how to understand animal behavior, but also the patience, compassion, and consistency that every pet deserves. I am comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and reserved, or requires extra patience and attention, I strive to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel secure and cared for. As a pet sitter and walker, I treat every animal as an individual and make their comfort, safety, and well-being my top priorities. You can expect reliable communication, attentive care, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and becoming someone you can trust whenever you need an extra helping hand. Experience Highlights * Raised in a family-run animal rescue environment * Experience caring for and handling dogs and cats of all ages * Familiar with basic training and positive reinforcement techniques * Comfortable with shy, anxious, senior, and high-energy pets * Patient, gentle, and attentive to individual needs * Reliable communication and dependable care As someone who works from home, I have the flexibility to incorporate pet care naturally into my daily routine. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, play sessions, or simply having a calm presence nearby, I can provide care tailored to their individual needs. I take pride in being reliable, responsive, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I provide calm, attentive, and individualized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. In a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow all instructions closely so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment with minimal disruption. This includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of companionship and affection. I pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can respond appropriately to each pet’s comfort level; whether they are energetic, shy, anxious, or senior. I aim to create a safe, relaxed atmosphere where pets feel secure and cared for. If caring for pets in my own home (when applicable), I ensure a quiet, clean, and supervised environment with consistent routines, regular outdoor breaks, enrichment, and lots of attention. Safety is always the top priority, and I only introduce new animals in a controlled and compatible way. Overall, I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine care.

About: ive had a couple of dogs growing up in my childhood, a sweet old black lab and a super crazy dingo.. in my free time after school and during summer i used to walk them, no amount of walking could satisfy my dingo..! id have her pull my bike to get all her energy out since we didnt have any closed in areas she could run off in.. ( i dont do this anymore! i realize its not very safe! she absolutely loved it for sure though) i love pups big and small old and energetic theyre all very unique and id love some new friends to get me out of the house. id ask you beforehand of course if youd be okay with them swimming, theres a pond i can bring them to after walking to cool off at. i have two cats, so id like to know how your dog reacts around small creatures, if they cant be in contact i can always but them into a room while the dog is over. most likely theyd be outside keeping me company! lots of shade and id keep em well hydrated and happy :3 i currently have been on a job hunt since what feels like forever, my schedule is very. very open.. since i dont have a car, but I have an electric scooter thanks to a helpful couple I babysat for! drop off would be ideal, if youre close enough to walk to i can do that too! my cats get their waters filled and cleaned almost daily, lots of love of course and are very spoiled. i dont have any dogs at the moment, so of course id love to chat about what youd expect and need for your lovely pup! im good with communication and friendly, special needs id be extra attentive to. im very good at remembering small things, though id still write em down incase!

About: Animals kept me safe my entire life, now I return the favor by keeping your babies safe while you’re away. ❤️ I have been working with animals my whole life. At only 3 I moved in with my step father onto a small farm(yes this means I can feed your chickens, gather your eggs, clean your stalls, and feed your cattle, pigs, or even horses). I spent three years working in the veterinary field where I learned to better understand and triage animal emergency and how to deal with them calmly and safely. I have 3 dogs, and 2 cats of my own as well as a bearded dragon and a few chickens, whom I love more than life. I have minimal boarding experience, but have had or worked with everything from fish and birds, to dogs to cattle, from snakes to horses, and I love each one of these creatures just as much as the rest. I adore all animals, and cherish my pets so much, and finding some one you can trust to REALLY care for them can be a challenge, so let me make your life a little easier with flexible, reliable, patient and gentle care. As a pet mom to 11 furry, scaly, and feathered babies, I know how hard it can be to find reliable pet care. My animals are my children, my babies; the most important things in my world. I promise to love yours the way I’d love my own. I am currently unemployed and taking a leap. What I’d LOVE is to start my own pet care company. I know how hard it is to find pet care in and around the Berkshires, especially the holidays when all the day cares and well known sitters are booked - so let me take some of that weight off you. I’m flexible and reliable and can do drops ins, walks, day stays, over nights, or multiple day stays. I’m open to any animal type, including pocket pets, exotics and special needs. What can I say? Pets are really the only thing most of us like in this crazy world; so it’s kind of the perfect job. 😉 I am open to all types of care, all types of animals, and all types of situations. I have experience in vet medicine and have had elderly and special needs animals my whole life. No matter how long my interaction with your baby is, I assure you it will be filled with love.

About: I'm available for all holidays starting with Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza and New Year's Eve I'm a lifetime pet owner and pet sitter with strong references 🙏 I'm not employed by anyone else, so my time is wide open and I live on a quiet dead end street and close to regular parks and dog parks / trails. I always take the owners preferences seriously, but I do like to spoil with good food and treats. I also am good with grooming calmingly.

“Jessica and Josie were wonderful with Miss Ruby. Even understanding her occasional accident in the house as coming from anxiety. Possibly due to construction noises which were expected to be gone before Miss Ruby’s visit. It changed my perspective from paying for Dogcare to paying to have Miss Ruby share her joy with Josie and Jessica and their family. ???”
“Ozzy had a wonderful time with Nicole and her family! Nicole was relaxed and welcoming, and encouraged Ozzy to feel at home. The weather was bitter cold but Ozzy got all his energy out tearing around their fenced backyard. Nicole was very communicative, sending frequent updates and photos, Highly recommended!”
“I was very nervous about the prospect of leaving Naki with anyone but a relative, especially since I haven't used Rover for any of their services. However, once I got to know Patti, my anxiety instantly went away. Her calm and kind demeanor brought me comfort as I knew Naki would be in good hands. Naki was with Patti for a weekend, and she would send me updates every couple of hours with pictures of him doing various activities. I could tell Naki was completely relaxed and comfortable during his stay. Patti genuinely loves animals and I will definitely be a returning customer. Thank you for everything, Patti.”
“Karl and his dogs are very welcoming. Karl’s yard is well suited for the dogs with a large space and a fence. Karl communicates timely and goes out of his way to ensure all goes well. All the dogs got along well and our dogs adjusted well on both sends of their stay.”
“I had never done a Rover sitter before, so was naturally a little nervous. But the moment Heidi and Sandy (my puggle) met, I knew it was going to be a great experience. She immediately connected with Sandy and made me feel at ease right away that Sandy was in great hands. Heidi really made me feel I made the right choosing with choosing a sitter in the area. Communication was quick, and she updated me with photos of my happy pup. Thanks Heidi!”
“I have no words for Mahayla! Couldn't ask for anyone better than you!! She went above and beyond for Chow and Zoe in their stay.We know 100% sure they will be safe and well taken care when they are with her.”
“Out of the past 10 dogsitters we’ve used, John is the best. We got 5+ pictures of a day clearly showing our dogs were happy and having fun. John noticed and mentioned a half dozen things that showed us he was attentive to our dog’s needs and sensitive enough to help them when they were in need. Our dogs came back visibly less stressed than with other dogsitters, so we will be using John from now on!”
“Christian is great! He is patient, chill, and very good with dogs! I loved that our dog wanted to go back inside with him when we had to leave; that is a great sign!”
“I needed a last minute boarding for my dog Enzo, as my family and I were going out of town. I found sandra on rover and she was available. We met the morning we drop of our dog Enzo.

I really recommend Sandra and will use her service again for future boarding. Thank you so much Sandra ,”

“Tetiana is an amazing petsitter! She is communicative, attentive to details and, most importantly, has a loving and giving heart. She and her lovely mom Maria treated my Edna like their own, with play and cuddles and outdoor adventures — many pictures clearly showing to me Edna’s enjoyment. I hope Edna can return to Tetiana’s and I highly recommend her.”

About: I love a challenge and a new four legged friend! Puppy biting, pulling on walks, endless energy? Let me know and we can come up with a good plan to meet your pups needs. I’m happy to hike with dogs, water activities, or other outdoor outings if it is what your pup needs to be their best at home. I also have a large fenced in yard to play fetch as opposed to a walk if that helps your dog get their energy out better! (6ft tall wood privacy) I learn quickly and care about how you want your pet care of above all else. I’ve owned, cared for, and fostered many animals across numerous ages and breeds. I have availability on weekends and after 4pm most weekdays. I am flexible and don’t mind last minute requests as my job allows for a good amount of flexibility I can adjust for a specific situation. I reinforce good behaviors or redirect bad behaviors with positive methods. I will not place any animal in an overly stressful environment and will meet them where they are at.
