Pet Sitters in Chesterfield, MA

Rachel

Rachel and June looked after our cat and house absolutely beautifully. Rachel sent photos and updates to us regularly. They also watered our garden and left the house clean and spotless! Would highly recommend.

Leslie

Leslie was wonderful! I would highly recommend her. She did an excellent job taking care of our 4 horses, 3 dogs, and Earle Kitty. When we arrived home, they all looked happy and well kept. She texted updates and sent pictures every morning. The house, I couldn't even tell she had stayed. Leslie washed towels and bed sheets and remade her bed. She is a lovely person to be around.

Elizabeth

Elizabeth was an excellent sitter. She is clearly an animal lover and was in tune with our cats, especially bonding with Daisy who loves company and cuddles and attention, but also winning over slightly more picky Saffy. Liz kept us informed throughout the sit with photos and news and we came home to two contented and calm cats. The house was neat and tidy, the sheets and towels in the wash, and everything clean. We are glad she liked our area and Bushy Park and made use of our bicycle to explore. We have no hesitation in recommenting Liz and hope to see her again in the future.

Gerard & Sarah

Sarah and Gerard were great! The house was extremely tidy on our return and we had amazingly sharp knives thanks to Gerard’s travelling knife kit. They were really friendly and we felt so comfortable leaving our pets with them. Nero and Juno were very happy on our return. We would highly recommend them and if they want to come back to NZ we would have them back again!

Walter

Walter is a gentle and responsible person who loves nature and was very caring toward my cats. My kitty Willa had an ear infection by the time Walter arrived for his sit, which meant he'd need to administer an antibiotic once per day and ear drops twice per day. I was worried and stressed about leaving Willa in the hands of a stranger at such a time, but Walter handled it all like a pro, even getting down on the floor to spoon feed Willa when she was experiencing pain while eating. I also asked Walter to adhere to the kitties' feeding and sleeping schedules, and he did great. I came home to a tidy house and relaxed cats.

Dix

We really enjoyed the chance to meet Dix and Linda! We were able to get together before the sit for a fun visit, and to tour our home and introduce our dog, Carson. We knew our home and pup would be well looked after so we could enjoy our trip with no worries. We returned to a happy dog and perfectly clean home- and well tended vegetable beds. We look forward to having Dix and Linda come again!!

Amanda

Amanda and her husband stayed at my place for a long weekend. They took wonderful care of my cat! I knew as soon as I met them that my cat and apartment were in great hands. They had carefully reviewed the welcome guide before coming and took excellent care of my kitty while I was gone. I came home to a happy cat and very clean apartment. I highly recommend Amanda!

Sue

Sue is/was easy to communicate with before and during the house sit. She asked questions and read the house guide book to make sure all was taken care of. The cats warmed up to her and were so well cared for... even our spicy kitty Eva. She left the house neat and tidy in all ways. She texted us pet photos everyday and and update. We are so grateful she applied to our sit :) Your very lucky if Sue applies to house/pet sit for you :)

Kathleen & Kurt

Kathleen and Kurt were wonderful sitters! Kathleen was extremely proactive with planning and communication leading up to the sit, and I got photos and texts regularly during the sit letting me know my pet was doing well. I was so happy to find such a good sitter over the holidays, and came home to a happy cat, clean house, lovely note and flowers!

Ami

I wish there were more stars to give, because Ami would definitely deserve more than just 5! She looked after my almost-13 year old cat, Pina, for over 2 weeks. When I came back home, I found a happy and healthy kitty and a spotless house that was probably better than how I left it. I had also the pleasure of speeding a short time with her: she arrived the day before we left and spent one night at home with us, which gave us the time to explain to her Pina's habits, little things about the apartment, and to show her a bit of the neighbourhood. And, I must say, I am truly happy I had the opportunity to meet in person such a generous, compassionate, and really fun-to-be-around lady. She is lovely, polite, and cheerful, with a kindness that, I believe, can only be beneficial to any pet (or human). She looked after Pina wonderfully and kept me updated with messages and cuddly pictures, taking care to ask me how often I would have liked to receive news. More than that, she also took care of our home and left it clean and tidy, and she even cared for my plants, that look now better than ever. We would entrust her with our home and pet a hundred times more! She really is a joy to be around and has a very positive energy. And she even got us treats! Should you ever need a home or per sitter, I would warmly recommend her.

Michelle

Michelle did a superlative job taking care of my house and cat while I was on vacation for 10 days. She was easy to communicate with and responded promptly. She was flexible when I asked if she could add some days onto the stay. Most importantly of all, she took loving care of my cat Jamie and sent me periodic photos of him. Jamie became comfortable with her immediately and in no time he was snuggling with her and sleeping on the bed. Michelle left the house in absolutely pristine condition, which is saying something for my house! ;-) I wholeheartedly recommend Michelle for anyone else who would like her sitting services. Thank you Michelle!

Sarah

Sarah was great with our Yorkie. He's an older guy and Sarah took him all over town with her during her adventures in Charlotte. She sent picture updates occasionally and kept me in the loop on packages received while I was gone. She is super friendly and has a nice disposition. Our Yorkie fell in love with her and would follow her all over the house if she left the room so she is AWESOME with dogs. He never does that. The most important thing I wanted from this experience is to know that my pup was well cared for and Sarah did just that. He got his medication every day and she made sure he ate his food even though he usually doesn't due to the stress of me being gone. The smile on his face during their adventure walks was priceless. She came in the night before I left so I could show her around the house and answer all her questions and meeting her before I left put my mind at ease. She left the house clean and left a sweet note of thanks upon her departure. Her gratitude was heartfelt. Overall Sarah was awesome for our Yorkie. The only reason Sarah didn't get 5 stars is that I've had other people sit for me that went above and beyond what she's done but in no way does that diminish Sarah at all. I can see why she has repeat clients all over.

Kate

Our stay at Faringdon was wonderful. 
Kate was very kind both over the phone and In person. Kate explained everything about her pets and home clearly. Kate made us feel welcome in her home. Mallow was a sweet little girl and she walkes very well but she does pull a little bit on the lead. As for Lottie she was a very nice cat. I would highly recommend anyone to come and house sit for Kate and her lovely pets

Emily

Emily was great to sit for! Her cat was so sweet and the flat was in a great location for anyone wanting to explore a bit of London.

Ben

Sitting for Ben was its own slice of Heaven.  He was both kind and communicative during my stay and also provided detailed instructions prior to leaving.  Ben has a beautiful home set on picturesque Lake Murray with the perfect combination of serenity and nature, a stone's throw away from the heart of Chapin.  Billie and Blanca were an absolute delight to stay with.  They are such sweet natured animals, each with their own distinct personalities.  I was blown away by the fact that he has a NWF certified pool, teaming with a wide variety of fish in his backyard.  I cannot wait to go back!

Aidan

Aidan and Nicola were perfect hosts— warm and welcoming. Their lovely home and garden offered everything I needed for a peaceful and serene stay. Their two labradors were so much fun and accepted me right away. I highly recommend a house sit here in Winchester!  Also two great pubs within walking distance!!

Cynthia

My sit here was nothing short of enchanting. It was such a copacetic experience where peace and the gentle purrs of contentment intertwined seamlessly. Raleigh and Bella, the feline duo, were the heartwarming stars of the show. Raleigh’s playful spirit and Bella’s regal demeanor created a harmonious balance that brought joy to every moment. 

Cynthia and Jay, gracious hosts, had meticulously arranged every detail. Cynthia’s organizational prowess was evident in the well laid out instructions and cozy guest room making me feel like a cherished guest. Communication flowed effortlessly, fostering a sense of care that extended even to Raleigh and Bella’s updates. 

This sit is an opportunity to find your own corner of paradise, complete with the captivating personalities of Raleigh and Bella!

Thank you for the stay!

Bernard

Bentley is the most adorable dog!  Lots of energy as expected as a 9 month old puppy and he is extra excited around women.  He is fairly easy to care for, loves car rides, and expects his walk at 6am. His home is a spacious 3 floor unit, with bedroom on the 3rd floor.
