Sophia checked on my cats while I was traveling. She made sure they had food and water, kept the litter box clean, and provided them with company while I was away. Sophia was very conscientious and caring with my cats, and I recommend booking her!

About: I had a a mixed breed dog she lived until she was about 11 years old. She had a heart murmur and a really bad knee so I know how to help support a dog that might have health problems or mobility issues. I have taken care of another larger dog of border collie blue heeler mix that has battled dislocating hips, throwing out her back and cancer. She is 11 now I have worked with a senior Great Pyrenees and I know these aren’t dogs, but I have taken care of multiple rescue animals from anything from fish all the way up to a cat and I have nursed every single one of them back to health so I do have experience giving animals medicines My schedule is a little bit all over the place. I never really know exactly what days I am off or not but as of right now, I should be available between 11 a.m. to about 2 PM but depending on the day I can work later I will make sure that your pet will not get into anything. It’s not supposed to make sure your pet does not escape your house. I will follow your instructions of how you want me to take care to your pet if your pet is to be let outside in a gate I will make sure that the gate is locked and secured if your dog needs to be chained outside. I will make sure that the chain and whatever it is secure to is stable and the dog will not get loose. I will ensure your pet safety if I’m walking your dog or if it’s in your house, I will make sure that no other animal comes after your pet. If I am at your home, I’m not gonna let anybody into your home that you do not personally know and without your verbal consent that that person can enter your home.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years and truly love being around them. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering basic medications, walking, and providing lots of attention and playtime. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I work primarily in EMS, so my schedule changes frequently but I have many days off a week and am flexible. My shifts are usually 12-24 hours long, so I won’t be able to do anything on the days I work. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. With 8 years of experience caring for dogs, I make sure every pet is in a secure, clean, and stress-free environment. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions, maintain their dog’s routine, and keep the space tidy and safe. I’m attentive on walks, use secure leashing practices, and stay aware of surroundings at all times. If caring for pets in my home, I ensure a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of supervision, safe spaces to rest, and regular potty breaks. I keep harmful items out of reach and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I also provide regular updates so owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away.

About: I have always been super passionate about animals and being a person they can trust and depend on. For majority of my life I have been caring for dogs and cats, from feeding and walking to just playing around and enjoying them! I have experience with pets of all different shapes, size, and temperaments. I look forward to being an excellent resource for you and your pets! I am a full-time student at VT, so I will have to leave for class/study sessions here and there but I will be fully available otherwise! If your pet is on a strict diet or schedule, just let me know and I'll be sure to keep them on track! I'm very attentive and active so if you have a playful dog, I'll be sure to indulge them

About: Hello! My name is Hayley and I am an animal lover of all kinds. I had a chihuahua for 14.5 years until I had to say goodbye to him in august of 2024. Since then I have found joy in helping others take care of their furry family members. My Pedro was special needs so I am comfortable giving meds or helping with disabled animals as well. I promise to take care of your babies just like they are my own! Same day bookings and short notice bookings will be dependent on my full time work schedule as I work 3 twelve hour night shifts a week but please always reach out as I may be available! I am also willing to pet sitting for other animals like chickens, hedgehogs, etc. Just ask!! I am a full time night shift nurse so my schedule is crazy but allows me to spend the days with your pet. I am also able to get several days in a row off and spend 24/7 with your pet, if scheduled within enough time! If selected, I would treat your baby as if they are my own and would go above abd beyond in caring for them. I am unable to bring pets to my home but am more than happy to care for them in the comfort of their own homes.

Sarah is such a kind and lovely presence! My cat is usually super shy and takes some time to warm up to people, but he took to Sarah almost immediately. She sent great updates and photos and I would absolutely trust her to take care of any pet. Sarah was compassionate and would highly recommend her.

Julia was the best pet sitter we could have asked for! My cat is 13 years old and I was nervous leaving her for a week after spending every second with her over covid. Julia always sent a picture or video and updated me on how she was doing, which made me feel so comfortable! Watching the videos I could tell how much attention Julia put into her stay as my cat definitely grew to love her. I most definitely recommend Julia while you’re away, she is both caring and responsible for your pets.

About: Life long pet owner that adores animals of all sizes. I love to walk,feed and pet all the beautiful fur babies. And have experience with all dogs from Shih Tzu's to Great Pyrenees. I'm always timely, honest and reliable. Communication, flexibility and a loving environment are key to a great experience. Myself and family (if allowed/desired) are open and willing to care for any animals as needed. I love to take them for a walk around the neighborhood and play fetch in the backyard/park or just giving them lots of belly rubs and attention when the weather is too extreme or they are too tired.

Kevin was AWESOME! He accepted a very last minute request for two days of drop in visits with my boy Scruffy and even tolerated my separation anxiety and countless text messages and endless questions. He was always quick to respond and so kind in our correspondence. He kept me updated with videos and photos of his visits. I had absolute peace of mind. He went above and beyond any and all of my expectations. And, Kevin is Scruffy approved too! In fact, Scruffy has been looking out the window for his new friend hoping for a visit from Kevin today he liked him so much! I highly recommend Kevin. He gets 6 out of 5 stars ⭐️ from Scruffy and I.
