“Ericca took great care of my dad's dogs while he was in the hospital. She was able to schedule with me last minute, over a holiday weekend, and extended the boarding by a day too. She was friendly, flexible, and kind. Recommended!”
About: I’ve been on Rover for 5 years now! I have lots of experience with animals and my education background is in biology and animal sciences I am available pretty much whenever to do drop ins or walks for your pets!! Let me know what you need and I can accommodate :) I always make sure to follow the owners instructions and communicate with them! Communication is important when taking care of someone else’s animals! I make sure to send lots of pictures as well
“I was very happy with this service. Mahayla was able to take Dougal onshort notice and was very accommodating to my schedule. I got daily videos that were much appreciated!!”
“Brooke and her family were great! I had to find boarding on a moments notice and Brooke was so good to me and Ryder. Ryder had a great time staying with Brooke and her family! Thanks so much for watching my baby!”
“The dogs had the time of their life. They really enjoyed the open space and being able to run all over. They said Awoo was a great host but they were to shy for their first visit. Thanks again for taking care of our puppies.”
“Nicole provided excellent care for our 3 month old puppy. He had a wonderful day full of playtime and snuggles. She also provided lots of pictures throughout the day which we loved!”
“Maritza did an awesome job taking care of Lola. She sent me frequent updates on how things were going while I was away that put me at ease. I would definitely use her again she’s highly recommended.”
“I had an amazing experience with Caitlin and her family. From the moment we met, it was clear how caring, responsible, and attentive they were with my dog. They kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. You can tell they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet”
“Lyndsay and her family gave our pups the time of their lives! They loved snuggling with the kids and playing in the backyard. Lyndsay was also great about sending photo updates throughout the stay since we were missing our pups! Will book again.”
“Laura sat for our black lab Hazel for over a week during the holidays. Her care, attention and communication were all detail oriented. Laura arranged a meet and greet prior to the boarding to make certain it was a good fit for our dog and her. During the stay Laura’s was in communication each day with adorable photos of their adventures. At the end of the week, our plane was delayed and luckily Laura was able to accommodate us by keeping Hazel an extra night. We were so grateful. When we picked her up she was happy and content. We even got a Polaroid as a reminder of her stay. Thank you Laura for welcoming our fur baby into your home. I would highly recommend Laura.”
“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.”
“Both of our dogs were calm and relaxed after a 4-day stay. James was attentive to all of their needs and was very kind. His roomates were a bonus, because someone was almost always around to hang out with our dogs! Thanks James, we will be back!”
“Irene has been such a great find in the Berkshires! She always gives helpful communication with each stay, and Ruby seems to love her time with Irene (and her sweet dog Goldie). Thanks for all of the care that you give to Ruby - we'll see you soon!”
“John took wonderful care of our Golden Retriever! Ruby was very happy with all the attention, care and play time she got and John was very accommodating of our needs.”
“Jennifer took the time to really understand Caleb's geriatric needs, introduce him to her home, and help him feel really comfortable there. She sent photos and updates frequently throughout the week. She is genuinely kind and caring, and was wonderful with our aging Golden Retriever. We will definitely ask for her help if we need care for Caleb in the future.”

“Brit is one of the best pet sitters we have come across. She demonstrated exceptional care and attention to detail during their visits. Our pets were clearly comfortable and happy under their supervision. The daily updates and photos provided peace of mind while we were away. We appreciated Brits proactive communication and responsible approach. We highly recommend her services for anyone seeking reliable and compassionate pet care. Brit is the best.”
“Iris was very reliable and kept our social cat company twice a day while my partner and I were away. She accommodated all of our needs for feeding (including setting a timer for late night and early morning wet food), litter, and play time, and even helped manage the temperature in our apartment during the heat. Our cat was comfortable and well cared for.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Court! Our two cats are a bit shy but they were comfortable with Court and she took great care of them. We got regular photos and updates and Court went the extra mile as a house sitter. We will definitely book again next time we travel.”

We care for your pets the way you would, and we’re especially skilled with anxious pets, meeting them exactly where they’re at. Your pets will receive all the love and attention they deserve in your absence. Some of our photos feature furry friends we’ve cared I currently need to be online from 8:30 am to 5 pm, so wifi is required. I can do walks during the day with plenty of potty breaks. I care for your pet the way that you would. I respect your space and your rules about furniture, food, crating, and space. I'm totally flexible around your pets needs.
“Deborah took good care of my two cats, one of which had special medical needs. She is a great communicator who sent daily checkins with pictures and she understands cats really well.”
“I used Nicole to watch my cat, Chloe, who had just lost her litter mate of 8 years and this was going to be my first trip leaving her alone without her brother. Nicole did so well Chloe even though Chloe is super shy and skittish, she got her to come out !! I would definitely recommend her for your pet-sitting job!! She’s a super sweet human being ❤️!!”
About: I have my own kitty who I pamper with wet and dry food everyday, yummy jerky treats and she’s spoiled with toys galore. I trim and file her nails since I have a sofa but she’s such a sweet girl she knows not to!! Love felines, really the amount of times I’ve walked into the local Home Depot and got sucked into hours of sitting on the floor to interact with them is, well, everytime I go in there. I really have no difficulty with cats and their varying personalities.
About: I’ve taken care for more than a handful of animals before! I have worked for two farms in my life so far. I have also always grown up with having dogs, cats, and even hamsters and Guinea pigs! I am a mom of 2 little ones but just recently moved so I am in between jobs and can work with you on times! I am available most days and a good portion of the day, as the kids go to daycare! I am a very good listener and fast learner. I love following a guideline and care so much about your animals! I can’t wait to meet your pets!
About: I've taken care of cats of all ages, including seniors with health issues. I have rehabilitated strays and provided hospice for end of life care. I currently have 1 chocolate tabby rescue and 1 Goldendoodle who are the best of friends.
About: Hi! My name is Maura and I live in Adams. I’ve lived and taught in the Berkshires for nineteen years, and I am looking to supplement my horse habit with another love of mine: pets! I have been pet sitting since childhood and have offered services in the Berkshires over the last few years for folks headed to music festivals or for a day on the slopes. I offer a variety of services including: dog walking, letting dogs out/play/cuddle time, cat and dog sitting in your home, house sitting, and small farm sitting. I also offer red light therapy sessions for pets small and large! I am currently in the process of developing a petBnB—a private pet boarding option at my home in a private pet guest house that opens to a fully fenced back yard. I will be able to accommodate up to three pets per single family at once (only one pet family at a time to keep everyone safe and happy!). If this interests you, please let me know! I have experience with all types of animals including, but not limited to: dogs, cats, hamsters/gerbils/rats, rabbits, ferrets, large aquariums, horses, cows, goats, and pigs. I’ve worked with small, medium, and large dogs of a variety of breeds, dispositions, and energy levels. The same applies to horses! I’m comfortable administering oral medication and caring for senior animals and baby animals. I can also administer medication to livestock with specific instructions. Additionally, I have experience sitting/running an equine boarding barn with 19 horses on the property. I also have experience with basic trick training and potty training for dogs. With horses, I am very comfortable working from the ground if you’d like to keep them in light work while you’re away! I understand how stressful it can be to board and/or travel with pets and my goal is to alleviate some of that. Here on vacation and need someone to let your dog out while you explore? Done. Headed out of the Berkshires for vacation and want to FaceTime your pup because you’re away? Give us a call! Headed out to the slopes for the day but have a new puppy who’s not potty trained yet? Let me help you out. I come armed with treats (if that’s ok!), a genuine, lifelong love for animals, and a personal understanding of the stress that worrying about your pet when you’re away can cause. Please don’t hesitate to ask if you have any questions about availability or services! As I am currently on summer vacation, chances are, I’m available! Thanks and I hope to hear from you! I’m always running errands for my pets, spending time with my pets, or I’m at the barn with my horse. Taking care of the needs of my own pets is one of my top priorities, and I can easily work your furry friend into my schedule! It’s important that we discuss your specific expectations and needs as a pet owner/parent to ensure that you get the best care! Every pet owner and pet is different and I want to tailor my approach to what your pet is used to and comfortable with.
“Renee was great and accommodated us for a last minute booking. She was very responsive and gave us lots of pictures and feedback while watching our cat while we were away. I would definitely use her again!”
“Trista was wonderful! She sent great pictures of all the pets. They all look so happy and well cared for. Great communication and followed all instructions. You can tell she really cares for your pets. We would highly recommend! 😊”
“I can’t recommend Bella enough! From the moment I met her, I knew my pups were in great hands. She took the time to get to know my dogs and their routines, which made me feel so at ease. Throughout my time away, Bella sent me daily updates and adorable photos of my pups playing and enjoying their time. Each picture captured their happiness—tails wagging and big smiles! It was such a relief to see them so content and well cared for. She truly went above and beyond, providing not just care but also love and attention. I will definitely be booking Bella again for future trips. If you’re looking for someone reliable and caring, look no further!”
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!
About: I own 3 cats and have never lived in a household without them. Cats are one of my favorite things about life. They are each as unique from each other as humans are, and I love this about them. Aside from my own, I have cared for cats of family and friends over the years. I honor and respect the uniqueness of every feline. Each cat’s needs and routines are unique. Building trust with a cat is rewarding, and it is always like making a new friend.

About: Ever since I was little, I’ve had an unwavering love for animals of all kinds. Little critters, classic house pets, muddy farm animals, and everyone in between. I like making animals feel safe and loved. I have a lot of experience caring for a variety of animals, from kittens and puppies to elder dogs and cats with medication schedules, outdoor animals like horses, goats and pigs, as well as reptiles, birds, and smaller indoor creatures. I’ve also worked as a foster for dogs with anxiety and behavioral problems who need extra training and attention. My schedule right now is extremely flexible, for the first time in a long time. I want to spend as much time as I can working and playing with animals! I have a 4 year old male dog who is highly energetic and loves to play with any animal who’ll let him. If boarding in your home, he can come with or stay home depending on what is best for your animal. Happy to cater my services to whatever is needed
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 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.
About: Hi! As you can see, I'm not charging a lot (I set it to the minimum for Rover which is $15).... The main reason I am doing this is to get a playmate for my energetic Boston. He is very well behaved and friendly but needs dogs around to play with while I work. I am very safe with my dogs and make sure they are getting along and happy. I have a nice fenced-in area.... I only want to take care of dogs that will want to play with my dog for the day:). Overnights an option but for now, just offering day care on here. thanks! I work full-time from home, or if I goto my solo office, I would take the dogs. (Office is pet friendly and it's not far from my home) I am very good with dogs and have had them a long time. I would treat your dog like my own while they are here.

About: I've taken care of animals all shapes and sizes since I can remember. Growing up my only job was to make sure my fur babies were fed and loved unconditionally. I would go to a friend of the family and help her with her pit bull and (several) greyhounds. I've worked at kennels from a young age and have had my own share of birds, mice, fish, hamsters, Guinea pigs, and chinchillas as well as dogs and cats. The home has only been without pets for around 7 months now and I would love to dedicate some of my time to people who need genuine love and care for their fur babies! I do not have a job, I am around all of the time! I can be there any time day or night! You name it. I do not have a fenced in yard, however all of the neighborhood doggies are very very friendly. I have a decent sized yard and live next to multiple fields and grassy areas.
About: I’ve taken care of dog of many sizes and health conditions, I have had a cat for 9ish years and have cared for friend and families dogs for years. I am a student, I am relatively free but lots of work to do! I like to go on walks already! I am able to be flexible. I know how to feed animals and care for them, can follow special instructions as I know they are important. As much as I would love to care for your fur baby at my home, I cannot.
About: ive had a couple of dog 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. our backyard is fenced! 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! 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, drop off would be ideal, if your close enough to walk to i can do that too! weekends are the only time id be able to pick up your pooch 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: 5 years ago my family had gotten a puppy (jack Russell, beagle, terroir, Pitt bull mix). My puppy is a big baby, and is scared of everything. From flies to the wind. But he also can be a bit mean and over protective about his belongings. I was able to find ways around him being overly protective about his things. I was the main person to get up early to take him out in the mornings, throughout the day, and at night. We then a year later got his sister from a different litter from the same mom and dad. She is the complete opposite. She is a loving dog. She always wants to cuddle and loves to play and have all the attention to her. Since I was little I’ve always loved dogs. I love playing with them and walking with them. I’m a full time nanny but have a lot of free time on my hands while the kids are at school and their activities. I’m looking for some occasional work and maybe part time opportunities. I would always make sure the pet has food and water. Make sure the environment around them is safe. And make sure to attend their needs in any way that is needed.

About: Loving animals runs in my family! My mother is an animal rescue volunteer and growing up we owned 6 cats and one dog. There were always strays and foster pets going in and out of our home. I absolutely love animals and understand them very well. I know how to take care of them and love them the way they want to receive love. I recently quit my job for my well being and I’m taking a break so I’d love to fill my time hanging out with animals! I am leaving my job as a hair stylist to pursue my true passions in art and healing. I will have a completely open schedule in a week and I’d love to fill it with another passion of mine, Animals :D I have a nice sized apartment and am a 1 minute walk to a large dog friendly park! I have a car so I can go whenever I am needed. I listen to animals and what they need to assure they are always safe and well taken care of. I consider myself a very reliable person.

With horses, I am very comfortable working from the ground if you’d like to keep them in light work while you’re away! I understand how stressful it can be to board and/or travel with pets and my goal is to alleviate some of that. Here on vacation and need someone to let your dog out while you explore? Done. Headed out of the Berkshires for vacation and want to FaceTime your pup because you’re away? Give us a call! Headed out to the slopes for the day but have a new puppy who’s not potty trained yet? Let me help you out. I come armed with treats (if that’s ok!), a genuine, lifelong love for animals, and a personal understanding of the stress that worrying about your pet when you’re away can cause. Please don’t hesitate to ask if you have any questions about availability or services! As I am currently on summer vacation, chances are, I’m available! Thanks and I hope to hear from you! I’m always running errands for my pets, spending time with my pets, or I’m at the barn with my horse. Taking care of the needs of my own pets is one of my top priorities, and I can easily work your furry friend into my schedule! It’s important that we discuss your specific expectations and needs as a pet owner/parent to ensure that you get the best care! Every pet owner and pet is different and I want to tailor my approach to what your pet is used to and comfortable with.
“Deborah is fantastic!! Deborah was amazing with Koda. She was prompt and flexible with my last minute booking. After our meet and greet, Koda immediately clicked with her and I felt really comfortable spending the day away. She sent so many cute pictures and i came home to a happy and tired pup :) would absolutely book again and so happy we found her”

I have a fenced area and multiple indoor secure areas where animals can get healthy time in a safe home without overstimulation. I have 1 Goldendoodle and 1 chocolate tabby cat who are the best of friends and are supportive to newcomers.
“Renee was an absolute pup saver for me on my Tallahassee work trip! I got stuck in meetings all day, feeling terrible for my pup who was stuck in the hotel room. I was weary of using a stranger to care for my pup but I read some reviews on Renee and decided to hire her on here. She was so responsive and pleasant right off the bat. Renee went to my hotel, got my pup and took him to the dog park while sending pictures the whole time. She certainly eased my anxiety and gave my boy a couple awesome adventures! Thanks so much Renee you were so good to my pup!”
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. My parents also run a dog sitting business on cape cod and I help out there when I can! I am also fully insured!

About: I’ve had pets since I was about 4 years old, and am experienced with caring for cats and dogs. Any needs they have, I will take care of them all - from simple company when you're at work, to walks, giving meds and overnight stays! I have experience training puppies too, from potty training to the classic "stay", "sit", "come", "leave" etc. commands. I have a large dog myself so size of your pet is no issue. Anything you're unsure about, shoot me a message! I work full time at a school but am free weekdays after 2pm until around 10pm. On weekends I am free from Friday afternoon until Monday morning so I can do overnight stays too if needed. Depending on the care required, I will feed pets, give them meds, take them outside, play games/fetch/etc., brush them, empty litter boxes and so on. I have had several cats and dogs of my own and cared for many more, so I am comfortable with adjusting to their different personality types.
About: I have my own dog walking/Pet Sitter business called “Canine in motion” On facebook and instagram. I’m super excited to have new clients reach out to me that need a dog walker/pet sitter. I’ve worked at an animal shelter, a doggy day care and I also volunteer at a nearby animal shelter to help walk dogs weekly. Through those experiences i’ve learned so much about different dog breeds and other small animals. I’ll treat your dog like my very own! I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup! I’m available for pet sitting/dog walking Monday-Friday. My weekends are also free. Why should I look after your dog while you're on vacation or unable to look after them? I give genuine love and passion to dogs. I understand their needs, both physical and emotional, and i’m dedicated to providing them with the utmost care and attention. My patience and attentiveness allow me to anticipate their needs and respond accordingly, ensuring their comfort and well-being. I have a keen eye for detail, noticing subtle cues and behaviors that may indicate their mood or health. I’m responsible, I follow instructions diligently, whether it's regarding feeding, exercise, or medication. My calm and nurturing presence creates a safe and secure environment, allowing dogs to feel at ease in my care. With me, dogs will find a trustworthy and compassionate companion, someone who will go above and beyond to ensure their happiness and safety.

About: I’ve grown up caring for and loving animals my entire life! Taking care of animals comes naturally to me, I love walking dogs, feeding them, playing with them, and believe it or not cleaning up after them!

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.

“Nicole provided excellent care for our 3 month old puppy. He had a wonderful day full of playtime and snuggles. She also provided lots of pictures throughout the day which we loved!”
“I had an amazing experience with Caitlin and her family. From the moment we met, it was clear how caring, responsible, and attentive they were with my dog. They kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. You can tell they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet”
“Lyndsay and her family gave our pups the time of their lives! They loved snuggling with the kids and playing in the backyard. Lyndsay was also great about sending photo updates throughout the stay since we were missing our pups! Will book again.”
“Laura sat for our black lab Hazel for over a week during the holidays. Her care, attention and communication were all detail oriented. Laura arranged a meet and greet prior to the boarding to make certain it was a good fit for our dog and her. During the stay Laura’s was in communication each day with adorable photos of their adventures. At the end of the week, our plane was delayed and luckily Laura was able to accommodate us by keeping Hazel an extra night. We were so grateful. When we picked her up she was happy and content. We even got a Polaroid as a reminder of her stay. Thank you Laura for welcoming our fur baby into your home. I would highly recommend Laura.”
“Both of our dogs were calm and relaxed after a 4-day stay. James was attentive to all of their needs and was very kind. His roomates were a bonus, because someone was almost always around to hang out with our dogs! Thanks James, we will be back!”
“Irene has been such a great find in the Berkshires! She always gives helpful communication with each stay, and Ruby seems to love her time with Irene (and her sweet dog Goldie). Thanks for all of the care that you give to Ruby - we'll see you soon!”
