“Ella had a difficult time getting to our place due to snowfall and diligently arranged for another sitter who she knew and could vouch for to get to our kitties despite the inclement weather. So appreciated!”
“Christine is very sweet and kind. She was very gentle with my 15 year old girl and accommodating to her needs. She is very prompt with scheduled times almost to the minute. I trust Christine fully and am confident in the care she gives to my precious girl!”
“We are so thankful to have found Mallory to care for our two, 8 month old cats! We've had a number of health issues with both of them since adoption which has required us to be close to home and forgo any overnight trips out of town including over the Holidays. We decided to take a chance with finding someone to care for them during a 3 day trip over the kids Feb vacation and chose Mallory based on her experience caring for sick kitties. She was so kind and thorough in learning what their needs were at our meet & greet that we were immediately assured that we were in good hands. During our trip she communicated with us at each visit regarding their feedings, digestive issues, and overall well being. She was patient with their needs and also spent extra time playing & cuddling with them which really put the kitties at ease. Upon returning it felt like we had only been out for the afternoon and it was obvious that the kitties had grown attached to her in the short time we were away. We feel like we've hit the jackpot in finding Mallory and will continue to utilize her gentle expertise not just for trips away but for wellness checks as well. We can't thank her enough and feel lucky that we now have someone to provide care above and beyond a neighbor popping in. Thank you Mallory!”
“Josh was absolutely brilliant. Extremely professional, responsible and reliable. Great communicator with humans and animals alike (lots of fun photos while we were away). He looked after our two cats for 4 days and we couldn't have been happier. When we returned home our cats were calm, well-fed and happy - food dishes were washed and litter box area was tidy. Josh will be my first choice from now on when we have to leave our cats next time.”
“I highly recommend Courtney! Smooth communication after the initial request. We both wanted to meet in person, which I appreciated. Courtney was timely, very friendly and immediately bonded with both doggos. Excellent communication during the visits. I would not hesitate to ask Courtney to take care of my pups again!”
“I have many thanks to give Felipe for how he cared for our pup. His communication was excellent, he was prompt, and truly seemed to enjoy spending time with our dog. I’m already planning to ask if he’s available for a few others dates this summer!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by pets of all kinds since a young age. I have the ability to take care of multiple pets at once, including my three dogs Oliver, Cullen, and Suga. My priority is to make sure every dog I sit is shown proper care, love, and happiness. I have a very open schedule this summer. I do like to have some of my weekends to myself so I am unable to spend nights on weekends. I have open availability and am excited to meet some furry friends! Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I exclusively provide care in clients' homes to help pets stay in their familiar environment. Whether it’s walks, feedings, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I follow your pet’s schedule and preferences closely.I always take time to learn each animal’s needs, from medications to favorite toys or hiding spots. I can also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and loved while you're away.Your home is treated with the same respect and care I’d give my own—clean, secure, and just how you left it.
About: My family has had dogs since I was 14. Out first dog was a German Shepard and second a German Shepard/Husky mix. Currently my Sheppard Husky mix resides in North Carolina staying with my mother as we were worried how he would do with a big move. I have always loved dogs and their companionship. It would be a privilege to take care of another’s fur baby. I currently have the sweetest little dachshound that I rescued in September of 2024 and we have been inseparable ever since, he is truly my child. I take my dog Beanie on longer walks about 2x a day and shorter ones through the day. I am mostly available on Fridays and weekends and after 5pm on Monday - Thursday My yard is not fenced in but there are many dog parks and safe places to play in my neighborhood. I love taking long walks and they are even better with a fiery companion.
“Anna was so great caring for my little Ollie with same day service! She was so thoughtful with her notes and time she spent with him. I am so happy as this is my first time using Rover and being a new dog mama!”
“Amalia was absolutely fantastic!! She came out to meet my dog ahead of time and I could tell right away that my dog was going to be in good hands. She provided me updates and photos, and went above and beyond to provide excellent service. Would absolutely hire Amalia again!!”
“We were exceptionally pleased with Molly’s care for our two pets. We have one cat who likes to be petted than one that doesn’t, and she paid great attention to the one who needs it. The cats litter boxes, the area surrounding them ,in the kitchen where the cat food was were immaculate when we came home. She sent pictures with each visit to let us know how things were.Would not hesitate use her again anytime she was available if I needed pet care”
About: I live in the heart of Essex Junction and am always out walking with my dogs! I love dogs of all sizes and age :) I'd love to come check in on your pets when you travel, let them out during the workday if you can't be around, and walk them during my free time! I work from home and have a flexible schedule so I am happy to accept same-day bookings if something urgent comes up. I'd love to let your pets outside, give them some extra attention inside if they just need a little love while you're away, and I'm also happy to let pets stay with me assuming they are friendly with other dogs (I have one 8lb dog and one 60lb hound who is very gentle). I'm also happy to check in on cats or any other animals you have in your home (we also have a gecko in our house!). I work full time from home, so I am always home with my dogs. I let them out and feed them first thing in the morning, and try to get them out for a long walk in the middle of the day when the weather is nice (my little one refuses to get her paws wet or muddy). The more time in the sun, the better! I have a partially fenced in yard but leash dogs if I'm watching a family member's dog who isn't used to the area. I always have eyes on my little one so she doesn't sneak through the gaps in the fence. Anyone who trusts me with their pet's care can rest assured their safety is my top priority - I'm something of a helicopter dog mom
