Attentive Pet Sitting & Dog Walking

Hi! I'm Allie, a lifelong animal lover offering dog walking, drop in pet sitting and house sitting in the Barre/Montpelier area. I specialize in working with anxious/reactive pets, seniors, or pets with high medical needs. My clients are family to me ♥️ whether you need drop in visits while you're at work, or want to spend the day at Killington. I'm here to help hold down the fort!

Safety, trust & environment

I make every effort to treat my clients homes the way I'd like mine to be treated. Muddy paws, spit up, accidents, etc., will always be cleaned up (please leave out materials or let me know to bring my cleaning kit!) Please let me know if you have special requests during drop in visits. I'm happy to grab mail, pick up packages or water plants while you're away. Dog Walking Safety: I'll ask if your dog has a history or reactivity, stress or anxiety to any specific triggers. Aggression or anxiety are never deal breakers, I'll just plan walking routes or activities accordingly. If you live on a busy road, I can provide transportation to a park or trail (additional fee may apply based on distance). Please alert me to any medical concerns, allergies, mobility issues, or injuries.

House Sitting • Aug 09, 2026

Absolutely recommended! She took so many pictures of the girls and took great care of them! Our initial booking got adjusted due to flight/trip cancellation, and she was super accommodating and helpful throughout the process.

Alexandra is by far the best dog sitter I've ever had; She followed my dog's routine, sent me cute daily pictures with updates and left my house in impeccable shape!

Knowing Alexandra is checking in on Junie while we are gone makes the time we are away less stressful. She communicates any issues and is just so great with Junie.

Allie was fantastic with my fur baby! She played with him, made sure he had food/water, and gave him plenty of love! She went above and beyond especially on the last day cleaning up after a hairball and notifying me about a potential constipation issues that she was able to help him with. I would 100% book with her again if we go out of town.

All pets please provide any info on food or seasonal allergies, any "no pet zones", favorite treats/motivators and vet contact information. For cats specifically please let me know if the are indoor/outdoor, indoor only or if they are prone to bolting so I can be vigilant entering or leaving the home. For dogs please provide any and all information relating to challenging behaviors. Reactiveness to people or other dogs, pulling on lead, bite history, anxiety triggers, history of ingesting foreign objects, etc. This information is to help me appropriately prepare for visits. Challenging behaviors are not a determining factor for bookings as long as I can provide a safe environment for all!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
