“Francesca is so patient with my girl! We got in late the night before her first visit with Athena and Athena was pretty spooked. Sadly, I had to work three days in a row and the house is full of boxes so that always freaks Athena out but by day three she got her to go outside! I was pretty certain she wasn’t going to do that until I had a chance to spend a couple days with her in the area. will definitely hire her again!”
“Alexandra was absolutely wonderful with Joey. We couldn't have found a better person to drop in on him whilst we were out for the day. She even took the time to meet him the night before, and was very patient and sweet as he was rather nervous of her to start. However by the end of the drop in, Joey was well and truly smitten with Alexandra. She was so friendly, and super communicative. Would very highly recommend. It's just a shame we don't live closer so we could have Alexandra come look after Joey more!!”
“Marissa was very professional and did a wonderful job caring for my cat Eddie. Eddie is skeptical of strangers and hasn't felt comfortable approaching everyone who's watched him, which means he can be pretty stressed by the time I return. Within the first visit Eddie was comfortable approaching Marissa for treats/scratches, and his stress was very low when I returned!”
“Miranda was wonderful! She took on our cats very last minute and they warmed to her far more than most. Her calm presence really helped our skittish babies feel safe. Her photo updates captured their quirks well and I was assured by both her competence and kindness that they would be well cared for!”
About: I am an organized and observant pet caretaker, at home I have two happy black cats and a thriving freshwater african dwarf frog tank. I'm experienced in administering medicine to cats, and enjoy working with fish and birds too! I work full time in Montpelier, and would prefer to recieve requests 1-2 weeks in advance to provide the best care possible. I'm currently available for morning and evening drop in visits. I have two indoor catsand believe a happy cat is key to a home. My litter box philosophy is the more the better, and I will scoop 1-2 times a day and clean the surrounding area.
“Stoph is a wonderful dog sitter, reliable, clean and took great care of my Millie! You can trust her any pet. She remembered all of the instructions and Millie was well care for.”
About: I've owned and taken care of dogs my entire life. I'm proud to be one of the first people friends and family call when a petsitter is needed. I love walking, and I love dogs. This seems like the perfect opportunity to exercise and get my animal fix! I'm currently working full-time Monday through Friday. I can do evening walks after 5:00 PM (as weather allows) and I can do weekends between 9:00 AM - 6 PM. My current apartment doesn't allow pets, but I can housesit on weekends or in the evenings if the location is somewhat close to my work in Waterbury. I'm a long-time vegetarian, and have always had an extra sensitive heart when it comes to animals. I think that earning an animal's trust is such a privilege and gift, and I honor that. I cannot house pets in my current apartment, but I will follow the guidance and knowledge of the owners in their homes and while on walks.
“Becca took great care of our two cats while we were out of town for the week. We had total peace of mind and our kitties were very happy! We’d recommend Becca to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy petsitter in the area.”
About: When I was growing up my family always had dogs and cats. I have two dogs of my own (I have a senior shepherd mix and a 1.5 year old lab mix) as well as a cat. I work with middle school students during the school year and would love to spend my summer taking care of animals. My dogs are my priority so I can’t commit to overnights but with my days free this summer I would love to do some dog walking, house sitting and cat sitting. I work full-time during the school year but I have the summers off with plenty of free time to spend cuddling with some cats. I’d love to do dog sitting as well but am not sure I can commit to overnights as I have my own two dogs at home who need me but I’m open for daily support such as walks or feeding during the owners’ work hours. My dogs use a long lead out back and aren’t left unsupervised for long. When my cat was alive he had his own separate space away from the dogs as well as easier access to food, water and litter as he was arthritic.
About: I’m passionate about dogs with behavioral quirks and pets with other complex needs. I’ll take the time to get to know your animal individually and provide the support they need to feel comfortable and safe with me. I am skilled at reading dog body language and will respect their boundaries and communication. I am also comfortable caring for exotic animals such as rodents, rabbits, reptiles, fish, and birds. I have experience giving medication (orally via syringe) to small animals. I have a flexible schedule on weekdays and can generally stop by for a couple visits during the day, depending on what works best for you and your pet’s schedule. My availability is wide open on weekends so feel free to shoot me a message! I have experience working with reactive and fearful dogs, and am careful to avoid pushing boundaries, particularly if an animal is uncomfortable with strangers. Reading each individual’s body language and respecting their communication is key to ensuring a safe and comfortable visit. I’m very detail oriented and will follow your instructions to the letter, and will be sure to reach out with any clarifying questions. Animal behavior is a passion of mine, and I am comfortable accommodating for any specific needs or behavioral quirks they might have.
“Lillian did a great job taking care of our dog and two cats while we were away! Our dog loves to play ball and Lillian spent a good amount of time each visit making sure she got plenty of exercise. We came home to three happy and well cared for pets. Highly recommended!”
“I was really nervous about leaving my 18 year old cat with someone else but Ariel put me completely at ease. She was so kind and caring with my cat and completely comfortable administering medication and following special feeding instructions. She also sent me great pictures of my pet each day and was very communicative about how things were going. When I arrived home my cat was content and well cared for. I would highly recommend her for any pet care situation. Thank you Ariel”
“Amber was great with our dogs. She always sent us updates when she checked on them and we loved all the pictures she sent us. Our dogs really seemed to like her and didn't seem stressed at all!”
About: I promise to keep your fur baby safe and happy as can be while you're away. I will provide playtime, walks, cuddles and a lot of attention. I am very interactive and not afraid to be goofy in order to make a genuine connection with your pet. Don't be afraid to leave me detailed instructions- I get it and have fur and feathered babies of my own! I am able to walk up to 2 to 3 big dogs at a time and feel confident in my abilities to give commands and appropriate rewards/disciplines. If your pet(s) gets dirty, I will bathe them as well as clean up any messes that occur. I also will keep your home sweet home neat and tidy so you never come home to a mess. I have grown up with pets and have always owned one or two.. okay, maybe 3 at a time. I make genuine connections with animals (wild ones, too) and would love to give them the opportunity to get outside all season long (even in the winter). If your pet would like an adventure buddy and companion who will distract them from your absence then give me a shout. Feel free to contact me with questions and concerns. I would be more than happy to chat with you!
About: I have been working with animals for the last ten years. Started working in dog daycares and moved my way up to vet medicine where i now am a vet technician. I am patient and understanding to all pets personalities and ages. I am currently working 3 days a week on a specialty service at a veterinary hospital. My weekends are typically free and I would love to fill the time with your furry loved ones. Will be very respectful of your home and make giving your sweet boy or girl my devoted attention. Back yard fence in play is great but leash walks are also great!
About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds, from cats to cows! I love animals of all kinds and am excited to meet yours! I am currently working a few jobs part time, so I will be able to provide attentive care for most of the work week and weekend. I have an unfenced yard and a park right in front of my house. The neighborhood is great for walks. My home is large and I am comfortable staying in clients homes.
“Quite pleased with Sue. I only have a cat but that said , my cat came out to play with Sue swishing Maggie’s’ fishing pole. I knew this because I got many photos and text which makes me so happy when I am away. Will definitely use again.”

Barre cat parents share their Rover experiences
Claire was fantastic! Our dogs can be a lot but she still took them on. Sent me updates on them with pictures. I was worried about one of our little dogs just because he is so anxious, but he seemed to be ok with her. He barked the entire tile but seems like she was able to feed him and put them back in their room without any incidents with him. She made an anxious weekend for myself so much more calm taking care of all of our animals so well
Allie was fantastic with my fur baby! She played with him, made sure he had food/water, and gave him plenty of love! She went above and beyond especially on the last day cleaning up after a hairball and notifying me about a potential constipation issues that she was able to help him with. I would 100% book with her again if we go out of town.
Miranda was wonderful! She took on our cats very last minute and they warmed to her far more than most. Her calm presence really helped our skittish babies feel safe. Her photo updates captured their quirks well and I was assured by both her competence and kindness that they would be well cared for!
