I am currently a student at UVM, living in Burlington in the University area. I have been pet sitting since the sixth grade, which is about 8-10 years now. I have house sat and pet sat over night many times, ranging from 2 days to 2 weeks. I have taken care of all types of animals, even two llamas, a horse, and 30 chickens. I do prefer dogs and cats, but other animals work as well. I have three chihuahuas at home in Connecticut, but have taken care of dogs as big as a Saint Bernard. I am the biggest animal person, and give love to every kind. Sitting your pet would not just be a job for me, i think I would have more fun!
