Pet Sitting in Fairfax

“Took excellent care of our girl, kept her company while we were away. Great communication on his visits. Highly recommended Chad and will definitely use him again… Great Guy!!!”

Renate R.

“Can’t thank you enough for always taking such great care of our dogs!”

Gina A.

“Hailey did a great job checking in with our cat Franklin while we were away for several days. She was easy to work with in terms of a meet n greet and communicated well throughout.”

Marina L.

“Marissa was very professional and did a wonderful job caring for my cat Eddie. Eddie is skeptical of strangers and hasn't felt comfortable approaching everyone who's watched him, which means he can be pretty stressed by the time I return. Within the first visit Eddie was comfortable approaching Marissa for treats/scratches, and his stress was very low when I returned!”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a toddler. I currently have a 12 year old dog who I’ve had since a puppy and we just got a 4 month old puppy. I routinely dog sit for extended family and I have fostered for a local dog rescue. One of my favorite activities is taking a dog for a nice neighborhood walk or an active hike. I’m a full time mom so I have a fairly flexible schedule for adding in dog walks. If your dog is ok with kiddos joining, I can be even more accommodating. I currently have a puppy who could accompany me on walks or drop-ins if you think your dog could benefit from seeing a play buddy. If not, I can do some quality 1:1 time with your pooch.

“Thank you so much!! Peter seems to really enjoy your visits and you are so attentive!”

“Michelle was amazing!! She was so dedicated to giving my puppy exactly what he needed - he had a blast spending time with her and I felt so comforted knowing he was with her. She goes above and beyond what I even expected and is completely trustworthy and reliable. She’s my #1 choice on here for sure!”

About: I've had cats and dogs my entire life and love both. I have taken care of young puppies and kittens as well as other small animals My weekly routine is fairly flexible now, I make my own schedule.so I can be pretty accommodating at the moment. I also have my own vehicle I can't board at my place presently but I hope to be able to do so in the future. I can pet/house sit anywhere in the greater Burlington area. I have a mini Aussie who can come play if your pets are comfortable with guests :)

About: I’ve alway been a dog and cat lover! I have experience of being a dog owner and also taking care of friends’ dogs. I’ve taken care of puppy and believe in positive reinforcement. I’m a patient and easygoing person. I understand the unique needs and personalities of our canine companions. I’d like to know your pup first. Currently I’m home full time and my wife is wfh. We have plenty of time to play with your pup and take care of your furry babies! I have a big fenced yard at home for your dog. My dog is a 20lb poodle and he normally doesn’t like big dogs. So I prefer small to medium dogs and let’s meet and greet in advance to ensure they get along and your needs can be best satisfied.

About: Hello! My name is Jenal, and I have 30 years of experience. I have grown up with breeds such as German Shepherds, Huskies, Retrievers, and Labs. Currently, I have a lovable Labradoodle and a dog that is an unknown mix, both of which are lovable and playful. Although I work during the day, I'd like to play with your dog throughout the day, at night, during the week, and on the weekends. I am looking to help with your dog while you are at work, on a date night, or out of town. I live in Milton but am willing to travel in Chittenden County and some of the Franklin County Area. I work full time during the week with the ability to flex my schedule. I am able to stop by on my way to work, pop in some time during the day, again after work and before bed time. During the weekends, my days are fairly open which allows for more flexibility. Safety and trust are very important. I would follow the expectations and maintain the routines of the owners. Therefore, this will look different in every household.

About: I'm someone who enjoys being around dogs and I love being able to make them happy. I have experience owning large and small dogs. I make sure to get them the exercise, play, and attention they need (and deserve)! I currently work from home and have availability during the work day to take breaks and get outside (rain or shine). I have my own dog so it is part of my routine to spend time caring for her. I live in a cold-a-sac neighborhood and have over a half acre of land. I enjoy playing fetch with dogs, walking with them, or just sitting side by side being buddies. I make sure they are fed enough and always have water in their bowls!

“Gabrielle did a drop-in visit for us and everything went great! She arrived on time and stayed even a bit longer than we scheduled. We came home to a happy pup, and would gladly hire Gabrielle again!”

Ben G.

“Very easy-going, took great pictures, prompt and thorough communication. We’d recommend Anna!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet sitter who works from home, which means I have the flexibility and time to give your pup plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’ve grown up with dogs and have years of experience walking, house sitting, and caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I love spending time outdoors, whether it’s a short midday walk, a quiet trip to the dog park, or a longer run or hike after work. I’d be thrilled to bring your pup along for the adventure! I’ve regularly cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs, including overnight stays at their home, boarding dogs at my home, providing daily walks, and playtime at parks to help them socialize and stay active. I work from home, so I am happy to provide daily walking needs, drop bys to homes to check in pups, house sitting/dog sitting on the weekends, or boarding your pup in my home any day of the week. I can have pets hang out in my townhouse, but will frequently take them outside and ensure that we visit the local (quiet) dog park once a day if I'm doing boarding events! I’d take the dogs for walks around our neighborhood, on hikes outdoors, or even swimming in the lake (if cyanobacteria are not present), provide enrichment, and of course, lots of love and affection. Most importantly, I'd be sure to match your dog's routine as much as possible, and try to make their time away from their family as comfortable as possible.

About: I grew up with yellow labs and helped raise multiple litters of puppies with my family. I’ve taken care of friend’s pets, but nothing formal. I’ve had my current dog for 3 years and want to expand my love of dogs to yours as well! I love to be active and will take your dog on a run/hike or just cuddle up with them on the couch. I work in a school - currently on summer break so very flexible. Come mid August I will only be available outside of school hours. Every pet and home is different. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine similar to normal and will follow your lead on what you want things to look like day to day. I always walk dogs with a leash.

About: Life long, I grew up with cat's and dogs. Along with other animals in the household. Mainly growing up with two cat's and a herding dog but also two small lap dogs. I'm working Fridays and weekends. Along with heading to college in the second to last week of August so right now Monday - Thursday are my available days I have two pet Friendly dogs that love to play and I would take them to dog parks to be able to get energy out in a safe and monitored environment.

About: I have had pets and cared for family/neighbor pets my entire life. I have experience with training, have a great set of communication skills with pets, and easily build trust through respect and loving care. I am a long time Vermont home owner and AirBnb host, a mom to 4 grown children, and active in community service. I can be trusted, am clean and respectful of family homes! I currently am self employed with a flexible schedule and availability, all days of the week and overnights. My children are grown, so I don't have any pressing scheduling needs. Part of my work is specializing in a healing modality, so I have an intuitive and responsive style with pet care. I take the time to understand what will make you and your pet most comfortable while you are away and pay close attention to details that will make your pet feel the most secure and cared for.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 14. I love dogs and have always looked for new clients. I have a job as a care professional doing home health aiding and am not making enough money and would like something fun to do on the side! I thought what better way to spend my time than to pet sit! It’s the same as taking care of elders. But I get to spend some k9 time! I currently work part time as a care provider for home instead, but am looking for more hours . I have two 10 hr shifts Wednesdays and Fridays and work 4 hours Tuesdays and Thursdays I can easily crate if need be , a big spacious yard, two dog parks near me. And trails in colchester . I’m a safe driver so I’m able to bring them to and from home.

“Laurie did a great job with our 2 dogs and our cat. She came as expected and stayed and got them fed and outside for some fresh air. We would recommend her to anyone and look forward to having her sit again.”

“Hayley is wonderful! Being relatively new to the area, we were a bit apprehensive about leaving our pets with a new person. From the first contact, Hayley was very friendly and responsive. We arranged a meet and greet and felt instantly comfortable with her. She took great care of our three cats, particularly our elderly lady who needs medication administered twice a day. Her updates were thoughtful and reassuring. She went above and beyond by making sure things were tidy and fresh. We came home to very happy kitties! We look forward to having her visit again!”
