Founded in June 2002 by Candy Laflam, the company began as a passion project rooted in years of experience in animal care and business. Candy started her career in 1994 as an apprentice dog trainer and later served as a kennel manager at a veterinary facility. She combined her education and instincts to pioneer pet sitting in Western Massachusetts, establishing Pampered Pet Sitting as a leading name in the region. She also founded the Western Mass Pet Sitters Network in 2003 to foster collaboration among professionals in the industry. As a dedicated advocate for pet sitting, Candy has contributed to local publications and remains active in community organizations, including her local Chamber of Commerce and BNI chapter.
The business operates from Suite 12 at 247 Northampton Street in Easthampton, a location that serves as the operational hub for its services across the Pioneer Valley. While the specific nearby landmarks are not listed, the address sits within a central corridor serving Northampton and adjacent towns.
Pampered Pet Sitting has built a reputation for reliability and attentive care, earning recognition as one of the Best in the Valley in 2007. With over two decades of service and a strong commitment to client satisfaction, it remains a trusted choice for pet owners in Western Massachusetts who value professional, in-home care for their animals.
