Pet Sitting in Hadley

“Rebecca was an excellent dog sitter! She went above and beyond for my dog, bringing an extra lomg leash for him, and treats. She sent awesome pictures and videos, and kept us very well informed during our time away. Oakley was very happy. Thank you so much, we would definitely hire again!”

About: I’ve been around dogs ever since I was a little kid. They’re my favorite kind of pets and I love all kinds. Ive taken care of many of my family members animals and it takes off a lot of stress for them knowing their animals will be happy and properly cared for. I’m available any day of the week and anytime after 8am, so I have plenty of time to feed, walk, and spend time with your animals. I have 2 dogs at home that are both very behaved and friendly overall. I will do whatever you need to ensure your animal is properly cared for, whether it’s a special feeding routine, going for walks, or giving medicine if needed. The only thing I’m not comfortable with is giving animals any kind of shots.

“We were visiting the Adirondacks for my sons wedding and contracted with Alissa back in February for an August wedding. We had her stop over 2x the day of the wedding to walk our dog Lilly. She was great with Lilly. Lilly immediately took to her and was so happy to go for a walk. I fully recommend Alissa. If we ever come back to the area we would book with her again.”

“Thank you for taking my Derby last minute. You were professional with my expectations, The times we talked about, Great communication if something came up. Thank you for going the extra step and picking up the mess he made when he got into my basket that had snacks in it. I really appreciated that. The pictures you took of him while taking him out, was super sweet. He’s such a good boy. Recommend you anytime.”

About: Hi there! My name is Natalia and I live in South Burlington my little 12 year old fur baby (pug/daschund mix). I can understand and relate to the stress and importance of finding a trustworthy care giver. I would love to be able to give the kind of care to your little one like I would expect for my own. South Burlington and Williston area would work the best for me. I would love to meet your family and spend time with your little fur baby! :) I would be available Monday through Friday after 5pm (and before 8:30am depending on situation) and any time Saturday and Sunday. Willing to be flexible! 😁 My sweet Harley boy is an older pup who has incontinence and regularly wears diapers, so we understand that special pets sometimes have special needs!

I would love to help you and your fur baby! whether that’s taking them on a walk or checking in on them. however I can help is what i’ll do! I’m about to start going back to school so i will have free time to walk your pets and to give them all the attention they need during the day!

I want to help ease those nerves and give your pets the best time while you are away! plenty of belly rubs and cuddles. I can send updates to you when I am with them!

“We had a wonderful experience with Sue over the past two days caring for our dogs. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly attentive to their needs. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and received plenty of attention and exercise. We truly appreciated her professionalism and kindness, and we would not hesitate to book her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

Jaimi was great with our two dogs, sending lots of photos, and even looked after our chickens! Our dogs warmed up to her right away. I will definitely be asking Jaimi to dogsit again in the future!”

About: I’ve had a family dog my entire life, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I also have experience watching and walking dogs for other people, including strangers’ pets, and I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels. I’m active, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m available throughout the week and have a pretty flexible schedule. While I have an internship on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I still have plenty of time for pet care, walks, and check ins. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pets are well cared for! I’ve been around animals and loved them my whole life, so being around pets comes naturally to me. I’m patient and understand that not every animal is super outgoing or likes new people right away. I’ve had experience with pets that can be more stand offish or take time to warm up, and I’m good at being patient and letting them get comfortable at their own pace. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own.

“Thank you for coming to take care of them with such short notice! We are up here at least one e a month and will be rebooking g and referring to our friends.”

“Lillian was very responsive and reliable. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future if needed.”

About: Hello! I'm Selena, a student at Skidmore college, doing research over the summer. Back home, I'm the owner of one dog as well as two cats, and I regularly dog sit for my friends and family members. My love of animals is well known and I'm always their go-to for pet sitting, as they know I'm always happy to do it. My current Bernedoodle has been with me since she was just a puppy, so I'm very aware of how much care and attention puppies need. I've also cared for dogs on the older side, and I'm open to dogs of all ages and sizes! Caring for pets is very important to me, so much so that when I do not have an animal to care for (i.e. when I'm alone at school), I become very sad. Growing up, taking care of animals every day was very important to me. I am unfortunately a college student living in on-campus housing, so I am unable to care for pets in my own space. However, I make sure pets are happy in my client's home and makes sure to keep the space maintained well!

About: My lifelong love for dogs is matched by my hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of breeds and temperaments. I have a special knack for connecting with both energetic pups who need an active companion and anxious dogs who benefit from a patient, calm presence. My key is creating an stress-free environment where every dog feels safe, secure, and treated as family. My life is dedicated to canine care! My primary role as a Pet Care Taker means I spend my days ensuring dogs are safe, socialized, and well-cared for. This experience directly translates to my Rover services, where I can offer your pup dedicated, one-on-one attention during my off-hours. Your dog will get all the attention and exercise they need to be a happy, tired pup. Your pet's safety and your trust are my utmost priorities. While caring for your pet in their home, I provide a vigilant, secure, and loving presence. I strictly follow all care instructions and routines to ensure your pet feels calm and happy. You will receive consistent updates, giving you utmost peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring and capable hands.

“Kayleigh was a wonderful pet sitter! We ended up needing someone last minute and she still made time to do a meet and greet the day before we left. She gave us thorough updates and took wonderful care of our pets. She even got our skittish cat to come out for snacks. I would 100% book with her again.”

“Miakoda did a great job caring for our cat, chickens and fish! She is very friendly and clearly cares for animals! Communication and follow up was great.”

“Victoria is very helpful and responsible. She kept me updated on any issue she saw with my dog during the visit and ensure that my dog has fresh water.”

About: Common courtesy and communication is paramount. **Willing to travel up to an hour away. Just because Rover says you are outside my service area it does not always mean you are. I have clients an hour North and South of me. **Necessary update as of 6/21/23** I will require current credit card info be on file at your vet or provided for me in your pet write up ONLY in case of emergency. In the event of an emergency and I could not get a hold of the human, puppies have no pockets to hold a card, the vet required me to pay. I have raised 3 separate RESCUE Rottweilers to be exceptional ambassadors of their breed. I currently do not have any pets since my big boy passed away in 2016. I hope to again one day have my own dogs. Until then I will love YOUR pet. **I DO NOT board animals at my home. Only repeat clients would MAYBE be possible for a very short amount of time.** Clients pets have included many breeds, species for days, weeks. Many Golden Retrievers, Doodles, mixes aka Heinz57s, Old English Sheep dog, lots of kitties, a chameleon, turtles, a bearded dragon, a small bird, fish, Rottweilers, a very challenging but lovable English Bulldog and Huskies one of which was very reactive. Oh and a LOT of house plants! PLEASE NOTE: I am deathly allergic to horses which I am very sad about. Any type of animal requiring LARGE amounts of hay would also be a problem i.e, goats, cows, alpacas I am sorry to say. Small rodent animals requiring hay for food or bedding has not been a big deal. My personnel dogs were very public dogs, parks, events etc. With the ever present fact in mind that as good as my animal was it is still an animal. Never purposely putting them in a situation to be loose (unless at home or a fenced park) or get into anything that could harm them. Read quite a few books/manuals by military working dog trainers in hopes of training a service oriented Rottie. Came very close to passing the Good Citizen certification but my dogs never liked the “stay” part when I had to walk away with my back turned. They just had to be next to me. So close. PLEASE NOTE: I have my preferences set to NOT to show any photos of YOUR pet publicly. I would ask permission first to share. Photos only NEVER infomation of course. My schedule allows me to be available to be in YOUR HOME, with your pets all day/night, unless noted ahead of time and of course trips to the store. I have many types of animals that insist on sleeping in bed just like they do when their people are home which in fine by me. Just take some Benadryl and snuggle on in. I try to stick closely to how the home runs normally so the pets do not have any surprises that can make them anxious. Sleep, food, walks, play time etc. I supervise dogs in their own yard fenced or not. I am very organized and like an outlined idea of their schedule to be written down for me to follow as closely as YOU would.
