“Lauren was amazing with my baby birds and cats!! I was so incredibly nervous to have someone watch over my baby parakeets while I was gone for a few days, and Lauren made me feel great about leaving them under her care. She did everything I asked of her, and sent me lovely photos and texts. Highly recommend Lauren for any pet care needs you may have--I'll definitely be hiring her again if I need another pet sitter!!”

“Ali did a wonderful job looking after my cat. I was not able to meet her before I left for the weekend so I was a bit nervous about how it would go. Ali followed my detailed instructions perfectly and called me during her first visit as I requested. She left detailed visit reports and even cleaned up my cat’s food area, which I didn’t even ask for. She was also on time every visit. I recommend her as a pet sitter whole heartedly!”

About: Hi, I’m Jaclyn! I’ve always been an animal lover. I have taken care of family, friend’s, and coworker’s pets for over 15 years. I have been consistently pet sitting since 2020. This ranges from cats, kittens, senior dogs and puppies, to rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, mice, and tropical frogs. I make sure to keep your space clean; laundry, dishes, vacuum, take in the mail, take out the trash. I want your home to be a safe haven when you get back, with nothing to tend to when you return. I am a wonderful companion, and I make sure your pet is happy, clean, litter scooped, fed, walked, and they will get lots of love and playtime. I always respect their cues and boundaries for everyone’s comfort. Animals love me! Whether they enjoy playing ball or walks, or snuggles on the couch, I want to make sure your fur-babies are happy and cared for in your absence. I provide a free meet-and-greet before sitting dates; I want to meet you and your pet, and ensure they are comfortable with me ahead of my visit. I love check-ins for longer stays and taking photos. My house sitting overnight services are in high-demand so please book ahead for best results. Let me know how I can help! I look forward to meeting you ☺️🐶🐾 I began working at a doggy daycare in May, so a couple days a week I have a shift there, typically Tuesdays and Fridays. Otherwise, I’m mainly focused on house sitting, or dog walking. I am often in Amherst or Greenfield, and don’t mind traveling. My house sitting is very in demand so please book early. I have more flexibility for daytime walks. Thank you! I will go over your regular routines for your furry family member, and chat about what keeping your pet safe looks like. I love a good harness for walks, I’m familiar with gentle leads, and I carefully supervised backyard playtime. Wood trails are great for walks and I always keep a close eye to make sure your pet is not getting into any mischief! I exercise the utmost caution when walking on the street, keeping alert for traffic or other hazards. I carefully assess dogs we may meet on the street to ensure safety and distance if necessary, with skills I’ve learned working at a doggy daycare. I care for dogs in a reassuring, calm way, with lots of praise and patience. I have a good eye for ticks and I am always finding them, but your dog should be treated for this, too. Your best friend is in good hands with me!

“James is such an amazing cat sitter and cat whisperer! He enjoys hanging with each cat, brushing them, petting them and playing with them. He is reliable and consistent. It was a comfort being away, knowing our kitties were in such good hands.”

Leslie E.

“Jasmine’s thoughtful care and attention towards our two cats is amazing. She sent detailed updates after every visit that put my anxious cat mom brain fully at ease! Jasmine went above and beyond to make sure our cats had everything they need. Your fur babies are in the BEST hands with Jasmine!”

“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.”

Richard R.

“Karl was incredibly kind and communicative. My cats felt like they were at home and they were only there for two days. He was incredibly flexible with pick up and drop off and even left work to meet me in the middle of his day. I would highly recommend Karla for any and all pets :)”

Hanna Q.

“Grace was very punctual, thorough and communicative every day while we were on vacation. We give her all five stars and look forward to booking her again when we next have to leave home.”

About: From training feisty puppies to caring for senior dogs, I’ve worked with dogs of all ages. I am study pre-veterinary science at UMASS so I’m a pro at giving meds and want to work with dogs with any special needs. Potty training or need a few household chores done? I’ve got that covered too. I'm looking forward to hearing from you! I am currently working part time and looking to spend some of my spare time with animals. I have a flexible schedule so reach out so we can coordinate the best schedule that works for you! I can do it all! I am enthusiastic about working with all animals. Walking, feeding, training, medication, please let me know what your pet needs.

“Tanya is fantastic! She asked good questions about my cat’s routines and behaviors which immediately put me at ease knowing my cat was in capable hands. I also really appreciated when she asked me ahead of time if I’d mind if she was a little late one of the days due to other bookings - I really appreciated that proactive communication. She sent detailed updates with plenty of pictures, and she even agreed to take in our mail and water the plants. I highly recommend her and will absolutely request her services again!”

“Lukas was wonderful with our two cats! We always got plenty of pictures and updates about our kitties so we knew they were in good hands! Thanks Lukas!”

Katie D.

“Bre was fantastic! It was hard being away from our three nuggets but the daily check ins and photos made it easier (and a highlight of our day)! 100% will want Bre next time we go out of town. Thank you, Bre!”

About: Hi, I am 34 and an animal lover. I have a full time job that is a flexible and I love being outside whenever I can be. I have one rescue dog and one rescue cat that get along great and love other animals. This is a side job/passion project for me that I have been doing for years and don’t plan on stopping. I have 5 sometimes 6 dogs I walk each week and would love to add your pup to my schedule. I am also comfortable with cats and other animals as well. I respond quickly and would love to talk about how I can help you out. Thanks! I am currently working from home and am able to make my own schedule. I love filling that time with dog walks and home visits. I am located in South Deerfield and love walking around my neighborhood, there is also a great hiking trail within a few miles of my house that I frequent.

“Carol was a great communicator who made us feel confident our cat was in good hands while we were away. She shared daily updates and photos that showed our moody cat warming up to her a bit more during each visit.”

Gitanjali P.

“Rayna was fantastic! She was great at communicating and went above and beyond for my cats. She followed my instructions and was attentive to detail. I could tell from the pictures she sent that she played with them and was very sweet and loving towards them. I will definitely use her again!”

“Amanda is fantastic! Could not ask for better!”

About: I am an active 20 something animal loving gal. Throughout college, I dog walked and house sat very regularly. Now I take on more long term house sitting gigs, but I am open to new drop in/dog walking clients. I am comfortable and have experience with all indoor animals (big and small) and some outdoor critters (think chickens, goats, etc.). I have familiar and comfortable with the needs of puppies and older dogs, I have experience taking care of both. Currently, I work part time so I an free throughout the day to visit your furry friends while you’re at work. Additionally, I don’t have many responsibilities at home (no fur babies or kiddos), so I have a generally flexible schedule for housesitting. I am comfortable caring for animals with any kind of needs. I am adamant about clear communication with owners to understand how to best care of their fur babies and keep them safe. I reciprocate this communication when caring for your fur babies and try my best to stay in regular contact with owners.

About: I have had 2 dogs for over 10 years now just recently one past away losing that connection has made me want to be able to be there for other dog's like I am to my own. I have pet sit for family friends when they attend vacations or work events. I currently work part-time, so I am available in the early mornings and afternoons. I work nights on Mondays and Wednesday but are usually out by 9pm. I have a dog and 2 cats, So I am not sure how my dog would react to another dog living in her home. I do have a crate and a yard to walk on leash but no fence to free roam.
