Pet Sitting in Franklin

“Kara was so thoughtful and caring with our cat Izzy while we were away. I highly recommend and look forward to working with Kara again in the future!”

“Michelle took such good care of my two kitties! They barely even missed me. She's also a really great pet photographer and sent sweet pictures while I was away. She's very communicative. I absolutely recommend her and plan to rebook in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little, all of whom ranged from Great Danes to dachshunds. I’ve worked with older dogs all the way to puppies and have had my fair share of messes to clean up afterwards. No matter their age they are all puppies in my eyes. I work full-time as a Behavioral Interventionist in Chittenden County and my hours on the Job are: Monday-Wednesday 7:50-3:00, Thursday-Friday 7:50-4:20. Weekends are very flexible. I follow the care instructions given by the owners to the letter. If there are certain rules in place, I will ask the owner about what to expect from those rules. When there is a walkthrough before owner leaves, I like to make sure if there is any medication that the pups may need to take. I make sure to clean their water bowls out daily, and feed them the amount of food that the owner permits me to feed them. If the pups are allowed treats I will undoubtedly spoil them. If there is an emergency I ask for their vet’s phone number in case the pup needs to be taken. This is not my home and these are not my pups, therefore I will follow what the owner wants for their animals.

“Great communication and thoughtful approach to checking in on our dogs.”

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: 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.

“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!”

“Chelsea did a awesome job our 3 dogs loved her highly recommend to anyone”

“Jordin did a great job with my cat! I love that she sent me photos each time she visited my house so I knew that my cat was being well taken care of.”

“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!”

“Absolutely spectacular and highly recommend. We are so thankful to have found her! So caring and warm. Mahalo to samantha from us and our furbabies.”

“Nikki quickly got back to us, she was sensitive and careful with our cat who is dealing with a difficult illness. We really appreciated her support and would highly recommend her.”

“I could not recommend Jaime more! She was absolutely lovely and very compassionate with both of my dogs. She dealt with road closures and a few hiccups with the flooding/bad storms we had in Vermont during the week of her sitting but was very communicative and helpful throughout the week. I had never left my dogs with anyone but family/close friends prior to having her dog sit and will most definitely be hiring her again. You can tell she truly loves animals and cares about them.”

“Mary and Noe took great care of my senior feline while I was away, and I will not hesitate to book them again. They were reliable, conscientious, and very easy to work with.”

“Andrea is amazing! She was excellent with my 9-week-old puppy and 14.5-year-old lab. Highly recommend.”

“Once I had met Dakota for our Meet n Greet I knew Franklin (our love-bug cat) would be taken care of and have a friend while we were gone. She is kind and responsible.”

“Nick is a very reliable dog walker and sitter . He loves pets and is extremely friendly with our dog . Our dog love walking with him.”

About: My parents bred our labs a couple of times when I was a kid, so puppies and dogs have always been in my life. In college I bought my own puppy and had her for a wonderful almost 10 years. She was my best friend and I talked to her and kissed her all of the time. She made me feel happy when my days were gray. Since then I’ve dog sat for multiple families and borrow my friends’ dogs to go for walks and adventures since I no longer have a pup of my own. I work three 12 hour shifts a week so I would love to spend my free days with dogs. I’ve watched my friends dogs even on work days because I work 7a-7 p so I can be there for breakfast and dinner. Most of the time I’ve stayed in their homes so that the dog feels most comfortable. I have no other pets in my home and your pup will get all the belly rubs and scratching they need. I love to go for walks and be active with the dogs (of course only if they’re capable)

“I left my dog Ako and my rabbit Hopi in Rachel's care at my home in the Basque Country and never had a doubt that they were in great hands. I love the connection that Ako and Rachel have - they enjoyed their walks and play time. I would recommend using Rachel as a pet and housesitter as she takes care of your loved ones as they are her own. Several times she helped me out last minute when I realized I would not be home in time to walk him or feed them. Not having to worry or think twice about what was going on at home was a great relief. Thanks again, Rachel!”

“Hello! Cassie was brought up on a dairy farm where animals were a top priority!!!! She has 4dogs of her own and shows them unconditional love 365 days of the year! Punctual, Respectful, and loving for your dogs and Pets!!!!”
