“Donald is a fantastic caregiver, and his set up on the hill is amazing, a pond to cool off, lovely home, and plenty of space for a happy dog to become even happier. My poodle Rosy had a blast at “dog camp” with Luna and Donald. Already reserving a second booking.”

About: Hello everyone! I have cared for many pets in the past with my most recent being my new puppy moose! He is an almost 9-month-old mini Aussie. With this, I’ve gained a ton of knowledge about training along with the dreaded potty training. Moose is potty trained and was fully potty trained at 5-months-old. I would love to be able to train other puppies/ dogs and have playmates for moose! I am sure your fur baby will be in the best care possible! I work part time which is usually not more than 2-4 hours a day! This leaves plenty of time for me to walk, train, and play with your pups! All pups will need to be in my care for boarding or daycare before 11 a.m. and picked up before 6 p.m. This schedule can be adjusted as I have a very flexible work schedule! I have a very large yard, along with a very playful pup to keep your pup busy! All dogs in my care will be created if I am not home to ensure they are safe. With this, all dogs will never be crated for more than 2 hours at a time. At your home, I will follow any rules you wish to ensure your pup's safety.
5. Faye & Guy R.
“Faye did an amazing job with our two anxious boys. She made them feel comfortable and made sure they got all the snuggles and outside time during our ski weekend. She sent adorable photos and was very communicative. We will be contacting Faye again when we visit next!”
6. Pierre N.
“Peter took care of my dog, Scooby-Doo, a border collie, several times during my holidays, he loved Peter! Excellent job and can recommend Peter strongly, greetings Philip, Montreal”
7. Maria C.
“Maria is an amazing sitter. I'm so glad she is close by. My dog Aidan is 14 and I didn't want to leave him at a traditional boarding kennel. Maria provided daily updates with pics which put me at ease while I was away, I could tell Aidan had a great time with her and Lalo. Plenty of play time and outdoor excursions.”
8. Andrea P.
“First time using Rover and Andrea was awesome. She was super responsive, punctual, loving and caring to our dogs (ages 5mth, 2 & 3 yrs). We couldn’t have had a better experience and would definitely use Andrea’s services again and again!”
9. Brittany T.
“Brittany was incredible with our fur babies! She updated us frequently with pictures and videos. She kept in constant contact. Drop off and pick up were both extremely easy and convenient. Anytime going forward, I’ll be using her services!”
10. Stéphanie J.
About: I’m a dog owner myself. I have been around many dogs for the past 6 years. I’m caring and I adapt to your dog needs. I’m currently a student, mostly at home. I’m hiking daily and Jack’s always come along on the mountain, we can bring your dog too and have dog’s date. I have a fenced backyard and I have a second crate if it’s needed for your dog. My home is a very dog friendly place.
11. Lisa C.
“Loki stayed with Lisa for a little over a week. We got pictures and updates and it seemed that he loved his vacation from home! We would definitely leave Loki with Lisa again in the future.”
12. Meixuan "Miranda" T.
“I would be absolutely delighted for Miranda and her partner to sit Juno again. They were communicative, easy to coordinate with, and live in an area surrounded with beautiful outdoor space. It was sad picking Juno up bc she and Chip became such pals that they both whined as they parted ways 😭 I’ll reach out if we visit the area again!”
13. Rebecca M.
About: Having been a pet owner for all my life, I am familiar with all sizes and temperaments of dog and cat breeds. I also have experience caring for bunnies, birds and livestock. I’m recently retired so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pets. My house is available if you need boarding or I can come to you. When your dog is in my care they will not be off-leash while outdoors unless you have a safe space for them, such as a fenced-in yard. They will get pets and cuddles, treats and exercise. I will follow your written instructions for their care and require your cell number as well as access to your vet.
14. Alexandra P.
“Alexandra est si attentionnée - mon chien a beaucoup d’énergie et elle a su le garder calme et en confiance. Je la recommande fortement.”
15. Whitney H.
“Simba was super happy when we picked him up. Whitney kept us updated with photos all weekend and her daughter was adorable with our dog which made us very happy!”
16. Denise O.
About: I knew from an early age I wanted to work with animals. I started horseback riding lessons when I was ten and went on to working off my lessons by caring for the lesson horses. This led me to manage a boarding barn and earn my riding instructor license. When I moved to VT I worked at an animal shelter for dogs and cats. This inspired me to go back to college for a degree in Veterinary Technology. I worked as a Certified Vet Tech for 12 yrs. Now I would like to focus on working from home and helping pets be comfortable and safe when their people are away. I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time for walks and visits. I'm available on the weekends for boarding and a couple of days during the week. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs to keep your family member company. We have lots of land and trails to walk on. I have a large crate available if needed.
