“Rosan was great with our pup! He was very communicative, friendly, and flexible. We were visiting from out of town and booked him for two doggy day care days with really no set itinerary and he was understanding and accommodating :) If we travel back to the area in the future we would absolutely book him again!”

“Louis & Haley put Archie at ease right away with their calm, welcoming manner. It was his first visit and I left him for 3.5 hours. He was calm and happy when I picked him up. I know he would be happy to go back and hang with them again.”

“Was in a bind and needed a last minute first time sitter for our 7 month old pup. Brooke graciously accepted and took great care of him. He had a great day playing with Bailey and enjoyed some time snoozing as well! From a cautious puppy owner there are undoubtedly worries dropping them off for the first time, and we can’t express enough gratitude and thanks to Brooke for taking such great care of our very large and energetic pup!”

About: Hi! I'm Nicolas. I am home full-time, which allows me to spend plenty of time with the dogs and cats I care for. We live in a large two-story house in South Burlington with a big yard where dogs can run and play safely. Please note that since I have a 20-month-old son, any dog staying with us must be completely comfortable and safe around young children. As a stay-at-home dad, I am at the house full-time, making it incredibly easy to fit dedicated pet care into my daily routine. I offer specialized services tailored to your pets' needs, including both cat and dog boarding at my home, where your furry friends will enjoy constant company and plenty of attention throughout the day. I also offer dog walking and 30 to 60-minute home visits at your location. Whether it's strictly following feeding and medication schedules, managing frequent potty breaks, or taking your dog out for a great walk to break up their day, you can rest assured your companions will receive premium care while staying completely on their regular routine. In my home: Your pets will have plenty of room to comfortable and safe in our large two-story house. Since I am home full-time, I provide constant supervision and companionship throughout the day. I ensure a safe, organized environment for both visiting dogs and cats, strictly following their regular feeding, potty, litter, and medication schedules so they feel right at home. At your home: I follow your exact instructions to respect your pet's routine, whether I am dropping by for a 30 to 60-minute visit or taking your dog out for a walk. I make sure your home stays secure, doors are locked, and your pet gets their regular feeding, fresh water, and potty breaks exactly as they do when you are there.

About: My partner Jennifer and I raised our dog Echo from puppyhood and are experienced in positive reinforcement training. Now we provide a safe, enriching environment for dogs to run and play in our fenced yard. I have lived with dogs for most of my life and consider them to be members of the family. Not only will your pup receive constant affection and supervision, but I hope they will also find a new best friend in Echo. If you're looking for daycare with a playmate, let me know and we'll set up a meet-and-greet! I work from home and can look after your dog most weekdays and weekends during the day. A typical day includes playtime in the yard and multiple neighborhood walks. We offer daycare at our home on a quiet street in Burlington. We only take one dog at a time and require a meet-and-greet to ensure your dog is comfortable and compatible with our dog Echo. All dogs must be up to date on vaccinations, tick and flea preventatives, and house trained.

About: I am an enthusiastic and passionate sitter who will provide great care for your pets! I love being around and interacting with all different types of animals. Over the years I’ve pet sit for many different types of animals including dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, bunnies, rats, chickens and even a chameleon :). I volunteer at the humane society every weekend where I provide care for small animals and cats as well as walk dogs. I have a puppy named Ellie who my boyfriend and I rescued. She's adorable but she has all that puppy energy. I can wait to care for your animals and I hope to establish a relationship and spend quality time with each pet I watch or walk. I am a Cellular molecular and biomedical science PhD student at UVM. Currently I am working from home writing my thesis so I have a lot of flexibility with scheduling. I will not be offering boarding but will be happy to stay with your pets at your house so they can stay in an environment they are comfortable in.

“Pete and Alex were so wonderful! They took great care of our 6-month-old puppy Juniper. She got lots of exercise with them and came home happy and tired! We would absolutely book with them again!”

About: I've had pets my entire life. For over 40 years, I've raised puppies and kitties into well-behaved, loved members of my family. I have some experience giving medicine and training. I work from home 4 days of the work week and even on the day that I’m away, pets are never left alone for more than 5-6 hours a day, which is rare at that. I walk our dog daily and there is plenty of time to go out and play in a fenced yard multiples times during the day. As mentioned above, we lets our dogs get plenty of fresh air and exercise and they are rarely alone for long stretches at a time. If I'm taking care of a pet in their own home, those pets can get walks and regular visits based on their needs.
