House Sitting in Johnson

“Chad makes each stay with Gracie an enriching and fun experience for her while incorporating positive reinforcement training into every interaction. I've had multiple canine companions for many years but I always learn something new just by watching Chad interact with her. It's a pleasure and relief to leave home knowing everything is in Chad's capable hands. Chad is punctual, attentive, knowledgeable, and responsible, and he speaks dog (even husky). He provides informative and entertaining updates and we come home to a relaxed and content dog who is happy to see us but disappointed when Chad leaves.”

“Dana was great. She came over to meet my German Shepherd Rocky so he would be friendly to her when she came to watch him while was gone. She even offered to swing back by in the afternoon after staying with him for the night. I highly recommend Dana.”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover now retired and enjoying home and pet sitting for a wide range of pets and locales. I have cared for dogs from 8-80 lbs, cats and hens. This includes administering medications for many of the dogs and cats. Having worked as a Realtor for many years, I ensure your home is also properly tended. All reviews from pet owners have been 5/5 and are available upon request. As a retired person I am available 24/7 to home and pet sit. I have been traveling to pet and home sitting engagements around the Northeast region. I am active, fit and conscientious. My interest is in homesitting having a background that includes work as interior crew in the yachting industry as well as 13 years as a Realtor in Florida. These experiences required high standards of cleanliness and responsibility for property.

“We felt very comfortable leaving our dogs and home in your care. The dogs were clearly well looked after and everything was exactly as we left it. Thank you for the consistent communication — we’d happily book again!”

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life! I currently have 2 cat of my own. I’m the go-to dog sitter for my entire family. Between my siblings and I, we have 7 cats and 2 dogs! I’m a local teacher with a lot of free time in the summer. I’ll take your dog on long walks or cuddle with your cats if needed! I am a local teacher and have the summers off. I’m out of school most days around 3pm. Perfect for an afternoon walk! My availability is flexible! My cats enjoy a quiet and cozy living space. My services include drop-ins or dog walking. The more I see your pet, the better chance we have at building a trusting relationship!

About: I’ve spent a lot of time doing long term dogsitting as well as drop in feeding/walks. I have experience with puppies, seniors, and everything in between! I’ll be your dog’s new best friend! I am taking the month of March off of my 9-5 while planning a move and am hoping to take on some dogsitting gigs on the side! For overnight and day care for dogs I am available to travel to your home to sit for your pets. For walks I can travel to your home and walk them around your area, or I can pick your pup up and bring them on a hike or trail walk!

“Kassandra went above and beyond for us and our pups!! Our flight coming back home was cancelled and Kassandra was awesome enough to stay another night with less than 24 hours notice. Upon getting home, we could tell the animals were all well taken care of and they were very happy. Our home was in spectacular order and it was clear she was very respectful of our space. Kassandra’s response time was quick and she sent plenty of pictures! We truly can’t thank Kassandra enough for helping us out in a pinch and taking the best care of our animals and home. We would highly highly recommend”

“Janice was so kind to watch our dog Walter on short notice. She came over the day before for a meet and greet and to go over everything and I instantly knew she would be great with him. She sent us updates with photos and our dog was very happy! I will definitely be using Janice again when we need a dog sitter.”

“We booked Whitney as we were traveling out of state for a wedding and the hotel did not allow dogs to be left unattended. This was the first time we’ve used a service like Rover and left our furbaby Wendy with someone who was not a family member. Whitney put us at ease and Wendy immediately took to her and her daughter. Whitney and her daughter were fantastic with our little girl Wendy! They listened to our concerns and followed our care instructions for Wendy. Whitney was so flexible and accommodating as she watched our furbaby in our hotel room as we were at family events for 2 days. She was in constant contact with us and sent pictures whenever we requested and often time she sent on her own. We plan on visiting Vermont in the future and using Whitney again. We would highly recommend Whitney if you’re in the area!”

“We wish there was a 10 star ⭐️ option here! We never used Rover before and were hesitant to try it. We had a wedding to attend, but no one to watch our fur baby. We got our 3 year old shih tzu, Hermie, 10 months ago. We were nervous to leave him in an out of state, unfamiliar hotel room with a total stranger. Kim, surpassed our expectations, squashing our anxiety of leaving Hermie in our hotel room with her while keeping Hermie safe, busy, calm and happy till mommy and daddy got back. We became fast friends and felt like Kim was part of our family. It was a wonderful first experience with Rover and Kim did NOT disappoint us. We are blessed to have met such a caring, kind, responsible human being to care for our beloved Hermie.”

“Sukhpran was wonderful. She took excellent care of our Frida-they were best friends by the end! Sukhpran was very communicative and flexible, and our house and plants were well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of and had my own dogs and cats for over 20 years. My current dogs are 2 and 9 so I have a wide range of recent experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I’m a therapist in training currently so I’m very pro communication and I’m happy to set expectations with you early and keep lines of communication open throughout my time with your pet. My schedule is very flexible especially over the summer, I’m currently studying for my PhD and can pop over for a walk, a feeding, a bathroom break, or just a visit. Especially this summer without classes I can work with you and your schedule. I have two dogs and a cat myself. I think I love them probably more than anything else in this world. In our home we love and respect our pets making sure they feel comfortable and confident and safe. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a fenced in back yard, our dogs are walked 2x per day and have bones and lick mats several times per week. I think mutual respect between us and pets is incredibly important and I always want them to live a life as full as possible.

“Anna and her pup were great house sitters and dog sitters for our two great dogs! It was great knowing our house and dogs were well taken care of while we traveled..”

“Giuliana took care of our beloved dog, Rabbit, and our home. Rabbit is not the coziest dog with folks except usually her Mom and Dad. However, Giuliana won over Rabbit's heart, and they became pals quickly. The house was immaculate when we returned and Rabbit was taken on lots of walks and seemed very happy. I highly recommend Guiliana.”

“Sam was amazing with my animals and took my pup on some fun adventures. I really appreciate she washed the bedding and towels and even made the bed up again for me after! I will definitely use her again.”

About: I've been an animal lover and taken care of pets my whole life! Growing up, we had the sweetest yellow lab named Pete. Now, my partner and I adopt old pets and care for them during their retirement. I love animals and will care for your pets as if they were my own. ****** PLEASE NOTE ****** that we have two dogs (an elderly deaf pug named Alice, and a senior terrier mix named Edie) and one cat. Our pets are friendly towards other dogs, cats, and people who come to visit/ stay with us. Please let me know if you have any concerns about your pet staying with our pets, or if they don't have experience with cats. We can discuss and ensure it'll be a good mutual fit. I am an educator at the local elementary school, and offer pet care services to neighbors and visitors to the area. My availability is generally flexible on the weekends, and can extend into the week on a case-by-case basis. I generally offer 3-4 walks per day, including one longer adventure to mountain trails, or another nearby, dog friendly destination. I'm happy to bring your pup to any of their favorite spots (within reason). Of course, it goes without saying that pets are allowed on the furniture and more than welcome to snuggle in bed at night, also open to crating or any special care required.

“We have five animals (4 dogs and 1 cat) and we are always nervous every time we go out of town wondering if they are “too much” for whomever is staying with them. We didn’t have that with Wendy. She came over twice before the scheduled date in order to meet the gang and that really alleviated our fears. She sent photos daily at our request and the house was in perfect condition when we returned. We highly recommend Wendy!!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years. I’ve grown up with dogs, working with them and training them. I’ve been dog sitting for many years and for multiple families, with different breeds, both large and small. I have cared for up to five dogs at once for one family. I have a lot of experience with high energy dogs, such as Australian Shepherds and German Shorthaired Pointers. I enjoy being outside and use this enjoyment to keep dogs active and happy. I go above and beyond when caring for not only my own animals but those of others. I view pets as family and treat them with the upmost care. I am a freelance writer, and have a flexible work schedule. Due to the nature of my work I am able to work from anywhere, provided there is access to wi-fi. As I am able to create my own schedule and bring my work with me, I am able to actively adapt to a pet's needs. I am able to take breaks for play and time outdoors as needed/necessary. I have a calm and loving demeanor. I am very diligent when trying to encourage animals to be comfortable with me and enjoy their time with me. I ensure they get plenty of attention, play time and are able to adhere to their typical routine to avoid any undue stress.

“My babies are everything to me. We hardly travel without them because we haven’t found anyone yet who can or is willing to care for them in a way that I’m content with. Enter Laura. Laura proves her trustworthiness by her excellent care and communication before booking. She is very competent regarding what I feel to be more complex pup situations. Added bonus, she is active and is able to give my high energy pups a good amount of exercise. My partner and I were able to have a fantastic time away without any worries. I am thrilled with Laura, and hope she is interested in working with us again!”
