“Nicole is wonderful. Sent us pictures and updates on our boy everyday. I love the fact that she fosters cats and dogs (which means she’s able to deal with many different doggy personalities) she has a great fenced in backyard which I love. I would definitely leave our boy with Nicole again!”
“I left my golden retriever with Briana for the weekend. She provided pictures, updates, and my dog was happy as can be during pickup. He played great with her dog and I will definitely use her again.”
“John took excellent care of my dog, Arrow. We had a meet and greet to make sure this was a good fit, and Arrow stayed with John for a day. Throughout the day John sent me pictures of my boy, having fun, and when I picked him up I could tell he'd spent the whole day happy and engaged. I'll be booking with John again whenever I need a sitter!”
“Lola seemed to be well taken care of by Elli! It was a saving grace to find her as there weren't many options in southern Vermont that I could find that met Lola's needs, so very thankful for her and all that she did to care for Lola when we couldn't bring her with us.”
“Laura was fantastic- she is every dog owner's dream for who you want caring for your pup when you are away. She was super communicative, shared pictures throughout our pup's stay and provided a safe and loving environment, allowing us to enjoy our holiday break. We feel like we hit the jackpot with Laura and hope she can host our dog in the years to come. Cannot recommend more highly!”
“Love the whole family! Maisy had a great stay with lots of walks and love. We had great communication regarding drop off and pick up times. Looking forward to scheduling another stay for Maisy.”
About: As a psychiatric nurse, I offer gentle, attentive care to people in vulnerable moments. I bring the same calm, respectful presence to the pets I care for. Their feelings and situations are accounted for while I tend to their personal needs. I work part-time on an as needed basis and can work around the schedules of my clients. Available on short notice, including nights, and 12-24 hours' notice is preferred. I have a lightly fenced yard and two friendly dogs. A canine guest may be offered crating for sleep, or they are welcome to bring their own bed. Must be cat friendly. If caring for a pet in a client's home, care will be provided in their own environment precisely as they are used to.
“Ericca was quick to respond and helped us for doggy day care with 1 days notice. She was friendly and sent updates throughout the day on our dog. We’d love to use her again in the future!”
About: Our home offers a large fenced in yard for endless play, with doggy door access. Our own fur baby is a small bundle of joy, ready to befriend any visitors! I am also a stay at home mom of an animal loving toddler and so we are able to give your pet all the love and attention they deserve. I currently stay home with my 3 year old daughter full time, and taking care of our puppy is built into our daily routine. We take him for walks, run and play in the yard, and make him homemade treats. He is never left wanting for anything. We have a fantastic, dog-friendly yard, fully fenced and secure, with doggy door access into the house. If your dog requires more exercise than running in the yard, we are close to multiple walking trails we often take our pup to.
“Carter was great! Very responsive and sent updates about Eloise’s stay. She seems like she had a blast- going on hikes, playing with the other pups - given how tuckered out she is now :) thank you!”
“Haley was available for us for a last minute reservation for our senior dog. He spent 5 days in her care and it was great. He came back happy and clean. Haley sent photos and let me know how he did throughout the day. Highly recommend.”
“Maryah was awesome. Even when our plans changed because of hurricane Lee she was accommodating. Great country location for the dogs. I would highly recommend her and have no reservations using her again in the future.”
About: Hi, I’m Ayden — your pet’s new favorite friend! 🐾 As a lifelong animal lover, most of my experience comes from caring for my own family pets — from playful puppies and curious kittens to sweet seniors and even a feathered friend. I’ve had the joy of loving animals big and small, couch potato and high energy. We recently said goodbye to our special needs dog after 8 amazing years together. I live with my wife and our 3 fur babies in a quiet neighborhood with a large (unfenced) backyard that’s perfect for safe, supervised play. I also do all my own grooming and love keeping pets looking and feeling their best. As a full-time realtor with a flexible schedule, I’m able to give your pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m conveniently located at the borders of New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Vermont, so I’m happy to serve pet parents across all three states! Whether your companion needs a walk, some company, or overnight care, I treat every pet like my own family. Let’s connect — I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! I am a realtor so I make my own schedule! Fitting in pet sitting will be absolutely no issue, and I am able to accommodate any existing routine your pet might have. Care for your pets will be based off their individual needs, as well as yours! In my home, my dogs are always crate trained for their safety and the safety of other pets in the home. Outside time will be on-leash until trust is built.
“Karl and his dogs are very welcoming. Karl’s yard is well suited for the dogs with a large space and a fence. Karl communicates timely and goes out of his way to ensure all goes well. All the dogs got along well and our dogs adjusted well on both sends of their stay.”
“Ali provided our dog, Arthur, excellent care. His love of dogs is very apparent the moment he stooped to greet Arthur. His dog, Hasti, is a sweet friendly dog and also welcomed our dog. We feel very fortunate to have found Ali and highly recommend him.”
