House & Pet Sitting

Hi! I have provided reliable, compassionate, experienced care for beloved pets, gardens, homes, and small farms since 2006 during rest breaks from teaching.

My background in yoga, meditation, nutrition and massage therapy make me exceptionally good with sensitive animals and specialized animal diets.

Overnight house and pet sitting in Western MA (primarily Berkshire Count) also include home security, bringing in mail, basic garden and plant care, and frequent video/photo text updates of pets.

Experienced with many dog and cat breeds, rescues, fish, birds, sheep, goats and chickens.

Celebrity and UHNW client experience and discretion.

Rates vary with level of care and location, and are for a 24 hour period.

Rates a little higher for remote locations and administering intricate diets, supplements and medication.

1 Cat – $60 to $70 a night, $10 each additional cat. 

1 Dog – $80 to $90 a night, $20 each additional dog

1 cat and 1 dog – $90 to $100

Drop-in feeding, dog walk, social pet visit – $30 to $40 (due to gas).
