Cat Sitting West Chesterfield

“Emily is amazing! She made friends with our standoffish scaredy-cat right away and has proved to be incredibly competent and responsive when we need her. We don't know what we would do without her!”

Teri B.

“Shawna did a wonderful job caring for our 17 year old, blind and ailing old cat as well as caring for our farm. We were able to relax and not worry. We received pictures and updates from each visit, which was a huge comfort. We recommend highly and without reservation!”

About: I’ve spent the last 5 years working in professional dog kennels in Berlin, MA, and I currently 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 just graduated from college and I’m working hard to save for my first home! This means I’m going to spend my days doing something I genuinely love, which is caring for pups. My schedule is flexible and I’m available almost every day of the week. I offer plenty of walking and drop‑in options throughout the week, and I’m always happy to work with you to find times that fit your dog’s routine. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or some extra love while you’re away, I’m here to help. Availability: • Most weekdays: mornings, evenings, and some mid‑day slots depending on my kennel shifts • Weekends: flexible around my kennel shifts • Nearly every day available with advance request! Now that school is behind me, 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, whether on paper or by 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. Photos Included: I 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: In my personal and professional experience, I am very comfortable with pets (cats or dogs!) who have medical conditions, 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.

“Wonderful visit and walk. My pet seemed very happy and he was very accommodating to book last minute. My pet instantly liked him, like he has a way with pets.”

About: My family owns and operates a Labrador breeding business and kennel, located in a small slice of heaven in the hill towns. I have been living, breathing, and loving dogs for my entire life and find immense joy simply being around them! I have several years of experience at a boarding facility where I was able to expand my knowledge on any different breed, size, age, temperament and disabilities! I am comfortable with all dogs at any life stages, ranging from a few hours old to sweet elderlies. I am also able to react quickly to any situation and have a solid history of preventing and intervening real fights safely between several dogs. I am available at you and your pets desire! I am able to stay in home and/or overnight, or simply check in! My car is my main way of travel, and has safely transported many pups to their playdates! Care in my clients home includes purely love and sticking to the routine that your pet knows the best! My client will also receive the utmost amount of reassurance and open communication because I understand on a personal level how difficult it is to leave your baby in someone else's hands.

“Alexis is amazing! She took wonderful care of my aging cat, including insulin shots. I was so at ease on my trip because of Alexis’ amazing communication and skill. My cat and I will call on her again and again!!”

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.

“Trista has been great with all our pets and very communicative. We are so appreciative of how reliable she is, even on such short notice! Thank you again 😊”

“Our dog and cat Cooper and Lucky both adore Annika and we always feel like they are left in fantastic animal loving hands when we are away. They couldn't be cared for any better. She is fabulous!”

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

About: 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 been taking care of dogs since I was able to walk. My family has had four incredibly well-behaved labradors and I trained the latter two. Anything from basset hounds to gargantuan huskies have spent countless hours at our house we called Camp Dog. I can train younger dogs and take care of the older ones which makes me a prime candidate for just about any dog-care position. I am a college graduate who desperately needs to fill my time and get exercise. This wonderful job lets me check both of those boxes while working with animals! There is a small fenced in area at our property but for the best experience for the pets I will definitely be taking them to the nearby parks. I also am very receptive to anything the owner would like done more specifically with their pet.

“Emily did a great job of watching over all of our pets while we were gone. She sent lots of photos and was very responsive. We'd definitely book her again.”
