House Sitting Barnstead

“Bonnie was an incredible pet sitter. She communicated with us throughout our vacation and took exceptional care of our dog, cats and home. We will definitely be booking her again. It can be a challenge to find a person who cares for your animals the way you do, Bonnie is a gift!”

Lisa E.

“Thanks, Hannah! We were worried about leaving our puppies home alone, but Hannah did great. They were calm, happy to be with her, and seemed to have a great time.”

Amanda Z.

“Lani was great taking care of our two senior dogs that have special needs. One is blind, requires medications, and wound care; the other one can’t hear. Lani handled it all with ease and professionalism, communicated well, and the dogs seem very comfortable. Highly recommend!”

“I never left my dog with anyone except my daughter and only overnight and she’s almost 12. I was anxious to do so and Teri reassured me she’d take good care of her. I got texts throughout my trip with photos. I missed her but was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing she was being taken care. I would recommend Teri (and Molly) and definitely would use them again.”

“I had to go out of town for a few days and needed a boarding kennel for my 70lb lab. My kennel that I have used previously closed down operations so I needed to find someplace new. I couldn't find any place I liked so I started searching online for someone to care for my dog at their home. That is how I discovered Rover. I found Charles on Rover and rather than keeping my dog at his home he offered to come stay at my home. Which for me was the best possible outcome. It worked out great. Charles was very respectful of my home and my dog liked him. If I have to board my dog again, Charles will be my first choice. I highly recommend him.”

“Kayleigh was amazing. She took great care of my pup and left the house in perfect order.”

“Autumn did an amazing job for us, and on short notice! Unfortunately, we had to find another sitter a couple of days before our trip, and Autumn stepped up big time! She met our dog's needs while we were gone, ensuring he was okay with the 4th of July fireworks and that he was happy and getting enough exercise throughout the days. She was great at keeping us updated on how things were and ensuring everything was going smoothly. I would definitely recommend Autumn, and we look forward to her watching our dog again.”

Sean B.

“Excellent communication before and during her stay. We recently moved to the area and didn't realize how much information our past sitter "just knew" Amanda asked questions to get answers to instructions I didn't think to give. Her attention to detail is the foundation that the exceptional care she provided our crew on. Couldn't be happier with her service and care.”

Keli R.

“Heidi watched our 5 dogs while we were out of the country and I can’t rave enough! I was super anxious, but Heidi put my mind at ease and was always very communicative. Heidi is a true animal person and it shows. 5 stars from both my pups and I! We will definitely be using Heidi again for all future trips.”

About: Our family has been taking care of our own dogs as well as others for over 20 years. We are a loving family with a large private yard. And...Petey and Moxie love to play with other dogs! About this sitter: I have been working with dogs in various aspects of the pet care industry since I was a teenager. My primary focus is on Obedience Training and I specialize in providing personal professional care for your beloved pets. We treat them like family because after all they are family. Why I love dog sitting I grew up surrounded by the love of pets, we had dogs, cats, horses and a variety of other small pets. I started working with dogs 20 years ago and I have worked in many aspects of the pet care industry. From grooming to boarding to training and more I've done it all. My love for dogs is a core part of what makes me who I am. Meet my pets Petey, Moxie & Lola About my yard I have a large grassy yard and for now I have a 16 x 16 foot dog yard for fresh air and potty breaks but that will be added on to as soon as the yard is dry enough to add more fencing. My dog yard and the future space will have 6ft fences which are necessary to provide the best security for all dogs. My experience administering medication Yes. I can administer any medications your dog may need including injections.

“Kristin is absolutely amazing! From start to finish, she provided outstanding care for our dog, Bruce, and truly went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, safe, and comfortable while we were away. She was extremely professional and reliable—always on time, communicative, and proactive. Kristin sent regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. It was clear that Bruce wasn’t just being looked after; he was being loved. When we returned home, Bruce was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. Kristin’s dedication, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. We can’t recommend her highly enough—she’s our go-to from now on!”

About: My family has had pets my entire life, and I've grown up with dogs and cats, so the question of how many years of experience I have is difficult to answer. I have a lot of experience being around animals, but I obviously was not the primary caregiver for our pets during my childhood. I am very fond of animals (of course), and would love to get to know your furry friends and help them get out and about! I'm a student in college at UVM, so I am around to hang out with your pets in between and after my classes! Because of the way they are spaced out, I'm usually free midday or in the afternoon/evening. I put a lot of care into making sure your furry friends are happy and healthy while in my care. I keep a close eye on them, and stick mainly to quieter roads that I'm familiar with on walks.

About: Hi! I have experience with taking care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I would always be the one that neighbors and family friends would rely on to make sure their fur babies were cared for while they were away. I care for every cat and dog as though they’re my own and send you as many pictures as you’d like of them while you’re away :) I’ve done this part time since 2021, and just recently switched to full time at the end of 2025. I’ve been using Facebook groups and my town page to find my clients, so I decided to give this a try :) Please reach out if you’re interested! I do this full time, so I usually stay the whole day and night, but sometimes I go out for a couple of hours at a time to help other clients or run on errands. I make sure not to be gone for longer than you say you’re comfortable with. I can take your pups on as many walks as they need! I’m active and love hiking and running, so I can always drive them somewhere to join me on a small hike or run :) I always follow your instructions for whether or not you want your pets leashed when they’re outside. A lot of times, I’ll keep them leashed anyways while letting them out into the yard. I usually stop by at some point before our scheduled time so we can meet each other and I can meet your pets. I usually ask for a note detailing the daily care/routine for your pet, along with important information like emergency phone numbers, and which vet you go to.

“We recently had Erin stay at our house with our cat while we were out of town. She gave frequent updates and photos. We came home to a happy cat and immaculate home. Would definitely book Erin again!”

Laura G.

“Jazmin was fantastic. She took great care of our house and made sure our two senior dogs were well cared for and loved for the week. We came home to happy dogs and a well-kept home. Highly recommend, and will definitely be rebooking in the future.”

About: My experience of caring for pets has started since I was a child taking care of family pets and later getting my own animals. In a professional setting I have been a Vet Tech for 9 years and done house sitting and dog walking for 5 years. During this time I have worked with everything from puppies, to diabetic cats. I also have limited experience working with large animals and farm animals. Needless to say working with animals is a passion of mine. At the moment I work full time as a vet tech which can cause me some weird hours. Despite this I would love to spend my free time caring for your pet. Feel free to message me and see if we can work out a time! Caring for pets in your house is completely up to you. I will follow your instructions for how to properly care for your furry family member and do everything in my power to keep them safe. Even though I work full time I would love to take the time before and after work to drop in and check on your kitties. They tend to get my morning attention and evening attention with just work getting in the way during the day. I care for the clients home by making sure that all of your requirements are met. So whatever you need from me to make everything as comfortable as possible I will do my best to accommodate you.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. I have taken care of my own dogs as well as friends and neighbors. I have experience with labs, golden retrievers, German shepherds, Rottweilers, and pit bulls mostly but love all dogs. I currently work full time Monday-Friday (this is important to note when booking me for house sitting) and would love to help people with walking their pets/letting them out after work or on the weekends. I can’t have pets in my apartment and greatly miss interacting with dogs! I am very respectful of other people’s homes. I am clean and appreciate instructions/rules on where food, collars/leashes, treats, etc are. I will keep your furry companions company, provide long walks, and scratches of course!

“Selyn was great! We were traveling with our border collie who was nervous in a strange place. We hired Selyn to stay with him while we went to a wedding and let her know he may not do anything but stare at the door until we got back. Selyn was perfect, very calm and waited for him to come to her. She brought toys and a did a great painting activity with him. I highly recommend her!”

“Jessica really helped me out of a bind. She offered to com to my home to meet Zoey at 9 pm the night before a trip when another sitter flaked out on me. She stayed at my home and everything was in place when I arrived home. Would definitely use her again!”

Sirena L.

“Caitlin was fantastic with our guy Walter. Very respectful of the place and the animal. Walter even followed her as she was leaving. Will for sure use her services again when we need”
