“Kara took such great care of my kitties- I'd absolutely recommend her. The level of communication was great. My younger cat is pretty shy around new people but she had no problem getting him out of his shell. She sent pictures of him playing and rolling on his back waiting for belly rubs. They both seemed happy and completely unbothered by my absence when I got home. Thanks, Kara!”
“5 Stars – Wonderful Dog Sitter! I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. Chad was incredibly attentive, responsible, and clearly has a real love for animals. They kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind. Thank you!”
“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.”
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: 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.
“Chelsea did an amazing job taking care of my cats while I was out of town. We came back home to a tidy bathroom (litter boxes) and happy cats! I will definitely reach out again next time my partner and I go on a trip ❤️”
About: I was born into a home with two dogs and always had a home full of pets growing up. Pets to me are part of the family. I am currently employed full time. I am available on most days of the week from 5pm to 9pm and 10am to 9pm most weekends. My dog is a member of the family so she shares all the perks. My house currently lacks a fenced in backyard for this reason I do not do boarding.
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.
“Jessica was wonderful! She came twice during the afternoon/evening to check in on our pups while we were at a wedding. She is calm, friendly and has a great 'dog friendly' energy about her. We have two older dogs who can be nervous around new people, but they did great with Jessica! I would highly recommend her for walks or drop ins. I'll be calling her again! Thank you Jessica!”
“Katie was super professional and had a great energy with the dogs. She checked on my old man and let him out to pee, was right on time, and sent updates. Will definitely be booking her again!”
About: Throughout my life, I’ve always surrounded myself with animals. Ive owned horses, dogs, and cats and also have extensive experience with rescue dogs who have endured trauma. I have yet to meet an animal that I haven’t befriended and continue to work closely with rescues and assist people in rehoming their pets. I just left my job as a social worker and am currently pursuing my MSW. I am looking for a part time gig to help get me through school, so my schedule is pretty open. :) I normally go for a morning walk with my own rescue pup and then hit the yoga mat and get some school work done. My schedule is very flexible. I have a rescue dog who does not get along with other doggos (disappointing but we respect his boundaries). Therefore, I wouldn’t be able to house your doggo at my home but open to house sitting and for advance notice clients, I can have my father watch my dog for a week or so.
About: I have experience working in a doggie daycare setting. I have experienced many dogs of many breeds and followed instructions for each individual dog needs. I have also handled dogs from mild manner to dogs with bigger personalities. Schedules are set daily/weekly/monthly depending on the needs. I offer pet care, pee/exercise breaks to pet sitting so will work with each need that arises to best support the dog and their owners. I do not offer pet care in my home. I will gladly communicate with the owner to accommodate the needs of your pet while taking care of them for you.
“This was our first time using Will’s services and we’ll definitely have him back! He kept our puppy entertained and safe while we had to be out for a few hours and was very flexible with timing. Thank you!”
About: I am a dog lover and have owned dogs for 15 years. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I can help with puppy training and can administer any medications if necessary. I would love the opportunity to walk your dogs or house sit while you are on vacation. I have open availability. I would really enjoy the opportunity to get to know you and your fur babies. I'm open for all types of visits. My puppy is on a harness and leash. She is always contained or in my home. I have a yard but unfenced. I live down the street from a dog park.
“It was great having Sarah watch our dog, he really seemed to enjoy her visits! She was incredibly accommodating and kind. We've already passed her contact info to friends looking for dog sitters!”
About: I’ve always had pets growing up. I’ve learned to care for pets responsibly and give them the love and attention they need everyday. I make sure I’m attentive and fun for all the pets I take care of. I’m in college and can do any job during my breaks and weekends work the best most of the time. Also the summer I am mostly free. I’ll always make sure that your pets are leashed while outside and will make sure your doors are locked in case of possible intruders. I will always keep an eye on your pet so they don’t get up to mischief.
About: Grew up in a home with dogs - Currently have an 11 year old Lab - our fenced in yard is spacious enough to play fetch or just lay outside and sniff around. I have most weekends and Monday's off - I'm active outdoors and could always use an excuse to have an extra dog join for a rail trail or Collins Perley lap (or two...Three) Our loveable lab would benefit from the added companionship of another - fenced in yard and plenty of toys to go around - if your dog needs to be created I can accommodate.

“Hayley grew up around animals and has a special connection with them! She rescued a dog from the south and had to undo everything he knew and turn him around from being untrainable to trainable. She also had to address his behavior and work on a better temperament! Her dog moogie did a complete turnaround and is a lovely dog. In conclusion she is very energetic and would treat your dog with the utmost kindness!”
