“Laura is wonderful! Great communication and my girl trusted her very early on! Athena is a Tim at rescue and often times won’t leave the house with sitters for the first couple visits, but Athena left with her all three of her first visits and even went for a walk with her a couple times which she rarely does. My expectations are getting her potty break met and to get her exercise needs met as well as a huge bonus! Will definitely hire again!”

I am a licensed public school educator who is fully background checked with glowing references that can be provided and contacted.
“We hired Shelby to meet us at a half marathon and watch our dogs while we ran. We were traveling from Maryland to Vermont and then on to Rhode Island, and we didn’t want to leave our dogs alone. She was AMAZING! Our 2 dogs loved her from the start and we felt comfortable leaving them with her to keep safe. If we were ever to find ourselves in Vermont again, we would definitely look her up! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

While I do work a regular job, I dedicate the rest of my time to helping you and your dog(s) in whatever way you need. Be it check-ins, house sitting, or walks! No matter what, I prioritise your pup’s comfort and safety. I pay close attention to body language and behaviour changes to make sure they stay safe, happy, and stress-free. Any instructions are followed closely to ensure your pup’s routine is kept consistent, medications are given on time, and any preferences are respected. For walks and drop-ins I focus on creating a fun, enriching experience while still prioritising safety. For house sitting, I treat your home with care and respect. I stick to your dog’s regular routine as close as possible and make sure that their needs are met. I’m also able to take your pup to veterinary and grooming appointments if needed. We can even go for a hike or to the beach with your permission! But please note I do NOT take dogs to dog parks.
