Pet Sitting in New Haven

About: I have had pets in the family for as long as I have been around. I have my own 9 year old dog and a family Great Dane. I have pet sat for both young playful puppies that need to be exercised constantly as well as old pups that need extra care and bathroom breaks. I’m good with both big dogs and little I’m currently looking for a part-time job so I’ll have plenty of time to take your pups on walk or spend the day with them. I am available on weekdays as well as weekends I currently don’t have the capability of taking your pets to my home but depending on services you would like if there’s no fenced in yard walks are just as easy.

“Lorrie did a fantastic job looking after my cat Champ. He's not easy to care for since he came to me as a stray and doesn't do well with strangers. But Lorrie was not only very accommodating, but also patient and detail-oriented. I highly recommend hiring her to take care of your pet(s)!”

“Kristina was super reliable and took very good care of our little guy Guinness while we were away! Highly recommend!”

“Laura is a very responsible, life long dog lover. She has cared for many types of dogs including Australian shepherd, Labrador retriever and an extra large German shepherd. She recognized a neighbor‘a dog had cataracts and assisted the owner in getting care for the dog. It’s a lucky dog to have Laura in their life”

About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a child from dogs and cats to horses and working on farms. I now have three dogs that I have raised and trained since puppies. They are now 5,7, and 12. I have an overwhelming love for all animals. I’m currently working at the Wheel Inn in Benson, VT. I work nights and weekends so I have extra free time during daytime hours in the week. My pets at home run free, but I do have a small area fenced in if need. When caring for others pets I will follow any guidelines they have for their pets.

About: Having 21 years of personal pet care experience, both on and off of a farm, I have general knowledge of dog obedience training, socialization training and general grooming of both dogs and cats. I am always willing to learn new things, especially for the sake of the animals that I am responsible for, as well as encourage them to have fun, feel loved and know that they are always in the best care! I have high standards for myself in this regard, so you can always expect that your pet will be in the best hands. Not only that, but you can also count on my loving your furry friend as my very own. I work full time, Monday - Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM; I take hour long lunch breaks, traveling home to care for my pup and taking care of business in between. Weekends are open, within reason, and I am willing to modify my schedule for the right person and pet. I will follow clients’ specific guidelines on how to care for their pet(s), observing and reporting anything and everything that occurs during each visit. Routine and consistency is everything, and I will follow these to a “T”!

“Alexandra was terrific! We were so happy she was able to take care of our poochies for us while we were out of town, and we were especially delighted that she bonded with our older dog, who is not fond of many people. We really appreciated her reassuring communications. Five stars!”

About: I have always had dogs my whole life and I love to be around animals of all kinds! I have worked at a kennel and a small animal hospital, where I had the opportunity to handle and play with all sorts of sizes, breeds and temperaments of dogs. I love going on dog walks, since it’s so special to be able to interact with a dog in a more relaxed environment. I think that exercise is a crucial part of a dogs life and I would love to help anyone that may not have quite enough time to get their dog out and about as much as they would like to. I have an extremely flexible schedule! I am a college student who's home for the summer and looking to spend some quality time with some furry friends! I can easily work around whatever schedule works best for you. I am happy to accommodate any specific requirements and needs your pet may have! Having grown up with and worked around all types of animals, I understand that every pet has different needs and how important it is for them to have a routine.

“Emily is a responsible college student who has a genuine love for all animals. She gives her own pets so much attention and love. Emily is the first one to play fetch with her dog or sit on the couch and snuggle with a sleepy pup. Emily takes responsibility seriously and follows through on her commitments. She is reliable and trustworthy. These qualities along with her love of animals makes Emily a great pet caregiver.”

About: I have worked at two doggy daycares, and this experience has given me the ability to understand what your dog needs and how to keep your best friend safe, happy, and healthy. I have a wealth of experience in pet care. Throughout my life, I have been responsible for taking care of my two dogs at home, as well as living with eight cats for a period of six months. Currently, I am a proud owner of a cat. Additionally, I have been caring for non-domestic animals, such as chickens, for the past eight years. Moreover, I have the opportunity to work with large groups of dogs on a daily basis. It's truly a fulfilling experience to provide care and support to these wonderful creatures. Animals require more mental stimulation than people may think. Just like humans, they thrive on mental stimulation. That's why it's crucial for animals to have social interactions with both humans and other animals. Providing exercise and outdoor time is essential for their well-being. That's why I always make sure to take my dogs and cats on regular walks. Additionally, I prioritize their overall health by ensuring they have plenty of nourishing food. It's all about keeping our furry friends happy and healthy!

“Amazing dog caretaker. Loves to take them on walks and give them all the love and affection! Miah is responsible and will send picture updates so you know they are safe and happy.”

“Kendra’s knowledge and love for animals makes her a perfect match for caring for or walking your pet! Her fitness level will leave your dog well stretched after a walk! She is one of the few people I would trust with my own dog, with two of her own well cared for dogs, yours will be in great hands while with Kendra!”

“Katelyn was great! She came over a few days ahead of time to meet Lucy. She was super flexible as I had mixed up the dates! She communicated with us on her visit and how things went. I would not hesitate to use Katelyn again.”

“Daley is an extremely attentive and caring pet owner and caregiver to other animals. She is very responsible and makes sure her dog and other animals are getting the care, exercise, and attention they need. I would happily leave my dogs under her care and guidance at any point. I know they would go on long walks multiple times a day and have a wonderful time!”

“Matt was the best with my dogs! He barely had the chance to meet them before he had to take care of them due to my busy schedule. He excelled at meeting and greeting the new to him pupper crew! They took to him instantly as well : ) He is very knowledgeable about caring for different dog personalities and able to adapt to the dog's needs. He is very caring and a true dog lover! I felt completely comfortable leaving my pet family in his capable hands. He is responsible and respectful, and easily navigated coming into and out of my house to care for the puppers, which I felt very comfortable with. The dogs loved their walks with him and I loved knowing they got a great walk in while I was gone. Bonus: I loved seeing photos he took while walking them after. Would highly recommend Matt for all your dog walking and care needs.”

“Amanda was very pleasant. She was very experienced and knowledgeable with puppies. She went above and beyond on a last minute drop in request.”

About: I have been a dog owner for the past twenty years and can honestly say I could not live without them! They have so many endearing qualities: fun loving, patient, non-judgemental, the list goes on and on. My promise to you is to treat your dog with the utmost respect and care that he or she deserves. After all, they are family. I am available weekday mornings and most weekends. I can offer play time, companionship, walks around town and general TLC. I can promise you your dog will not find a better friend, other than you of course! I can also help with dogs that have special needs. When my dog was a puppy he suffered a broken leg and he had a pin in his hip for quite some time. I nursed him back to health with the vets guidance. The bottom line is I will take care of your pooch!

About: I’ve been around lots of dogs my whole life and have experience potty training and behavior training them as well. Dogs have always been a passion of mine and I would love to take care of yours as well. I work full time from 7:30 to 5 Monday through Friday but on my free time I would love to check on or hangout with your pups and I am always free to pet sit at your house or mine depending on your preference! I just like to make sure that everyone is happy and comfortable, whether that be having lots of toys or having their own space to chill out alone.

About: Relationship with animals has always been a passion of mine. I started grooming dogs with my grandmother at the age of 10, but was her assistant long before I earned the title. It brings me joy and fulfillment to care for pups and cats alike, while creating an environment where they (and you) can feel safe and earn my trust in the process. As a part time bartender at Pascolo Restaurant in Downtown Burlington, it would fit into my schedule to walk dogs in the morning, afternoon and early evening as well as weekends. There is a lot of freedom to work around your schedule :) In my home, I live off of Main Street in Vergennes and can provide safe walking around town as well as some of the trails near by. In your home, I am quick to adapt to whatever will make you most comfortable!
