1. Haley C.
“Haley was a wonderful caretaker for our two cats! We got plenty of updates and pictures. Both cats took to her immediately and soon they were playing and making biscuits 🥰. We appreciate the time she spent getting to know them and would definitely book again!”
2. Bailey O.
“Bailey and our dog Jolene LOVE each other. You can tell from the videos/pics she promptly sends each time she takes her for a walk that its a BIG DEAL to play with Auntie Bailey! Bailey is reliable, has a heart of gold, has fair rates, and dogs love her! She incorporates commands as well as play into the walks and allows sniffing! A well rounded doggy date indeed! We highly recommend her!”
3. Casandra B.
“Cassie is such a sweet person who took amazing care of my two fur babies. I am a travel nurse so I had to leave my dogs home while I traveled away for 5 days. This was the first time and I was so scared to leave my fur babies. Cassie quickly put that fear to ease and met the fur babies before hand. She came by and my husband and I immediately got a great vibe from her. While I was away, Cassie sent me videos and pictures of the dogs. I was always updated and she communicated perfectly. She also took good care of our place. We will definitely be using her again! She is heaven sent. Ps: my dogs loved her!”
4. Stacie S.
“Definitely 5 stars for Stacie for her first time visits with our cat. Stacie came to our home 4 times while we were away. When we arrived home, our cat was calm and happy. Stacie is very communicative, a kind and caring person. I would not hesitate (and will) book Stacie again! Clearly recommended.”
5. Jacquelyn R.
“Jackie is the best! She loves my kitties and takes the time to get to know them. I feel at ease knowing they are being cared for by her. She is super responsive, professional and very knowledgeable about animal care. I also love the pics she send me while I am away.”
6. Elias V.
“Wonderful, kind and reliable.”
7. Deanna C.
“Deanna was always on time, sent several photos every visit, and kept my dog great company while I was away. My place was clean and my dog happy and safe when I returned. I would gladly hire Deanna again!”
8. Samantha T.
“Samantha was great. Loved the detailed write-ups and pictures from her drops ins. It was nice to know our dog (and chickens!) we’re well tended to while we were gone. Will definitely book again!”
9. Grace Z.
“Grace Z is an extremely well rounded person with a caring heart. I have two German Short Hair-Pointers (very high strung dogs) and she took care of them for days at a time when I was away. She did a great job with them, and not only did the dogs absolutely love her but they became so fond of her I swear they loved her more than me. She is an extremely responsible and attentive person who makes sure that she knows every detail about the dog to provide the best care possible. She always made me feel like my dogs were in great hands whilst often times delivering me with absolutely adorable picture updates. She is overall an superb caretaker and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pooch-care(er) :)”
10. Jillian C.
“We feel fortunate to have Jillian care for our cat when we are out of town. Her communication has been excellent and she seems to truly enjoy the time she spends with him.”
11. Megan G.
About: I've wanted a dog since as long as I knew they existed but never had the resources to have one of my own. So when I was 12 I got my first dog-walking job and I never looked back! Though I've never had my own dog, I've had the privilege to care for numerous furry friends, of various sizes and personalities, including Doyle the Catahoula Leopard dog we fostered. I moved to Brattleboro in September 2019 and had to leave my 2 cats, Nibbles and Tricks at home. Now do to housing rules I cannot have my own pet which is why I am so excited to take care of yours! I am a student at New England Center for Circus Arts and spend my weekdays there, but I can care for your pets in the morning, evening and during my lunch break at noon. I can give your pet even more attention on weekends! I travel a lot but when I am in town I have a very flexible routine that can mold to the needs of your pet! I am unfortunately unable to care for pets in my own home, but well I am at your home, I ensure your pet is kept safely and out of trouble!
12. Carol O.
“Carol took Nora while we went to the botanical garden. She played with her and kept her safe so we could enjoy our time in the gardens. I wish we could take her with us every time we travel ?”
13. Christiana F.
“Second time Christiana has met my dog (who has some anxiety issues), and she's been so gentle and thoughtful, never pushing him too far. Will definitely rebook.”
14. Keri R.
“We highly recommend Keri as a pet sitter. We have 3 dogs and 7 cats and we never have any issues while we are away. We feel comfortable leaving knowing our pets are in such great hands. Keri has over 20 years working at the local humane society and can care for all types of animals. She has experience with giving medications. When we return from our trips, our animals look just as happy and healthy as we had left them. She gives updates and pictures and never is bothered by extra messages inquiring how our pets are doing. We always recommend Keri whenever anyone needs pet sitting!”
15. Amelia L.
“Amelia is wonderful with my pets. She has always been attentive to their needs as well as my specific requests about their care, and is always extremely respectful, kind, and dedicated. I prefer Amelia to take care of my menagerie when I am away more than anyone else I have used in the last 10 years- both on or off of Rover.”
16. Christine C.
“Christine took excellent care of our two cats, we highly recommend her, she was super easy to communicate with, and is a very kind and caring person.”
17. Hayley R.
“Wow, what an amazing experience with Hayley. I was very reluctant to hire someone to care for our beautiful fur babies. My 15 year old dog and 10 year old cat had only been cared for by family. She stopped by my house on two occassions to get acquainted with Melody and Doby before my trip. It was love at first sight. She connected with them within minutes. She was authentic and warm while playing and building trust with them. She sent videos, photos and daily updates; giving me peace of mind. She fed my outdoor squirrel and bird friends. I was going to have her drop-in 3 times a day however she was willing to stay over. I was thankful my babies were not left alone at night; they slept with her. She is trustworthy, reliable and genuinely loves animals. The house was immaculate upon my return. Without hesitation I would ask Hayley if she were available during our next trip.”
18. Lauren M.
“Lauren did a great job caring for our cat Cheeto. We really appreciated the daily pics and felt very comfortable leaving him in her capable hands !”
19. Mike & Laura O.
“Mike was so fantastic with our dog Preston! Since Mike has senior dog experience, he really knew exactly how to handle Preston with love and care, he was a great communicator and we will definitely working with him again!”
