Pet care experience
I am currently available for walks/visits in the South End of Burlington on Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday evenings. My cat (Sonya) is 12, and my dog (Otis) is a yeah and a half! My family dog (Hank) is 7! I dog walking/care experience begun in 2011, walking a dog weekly on and off for years and staying overnight with him for up to 10 days at a time. I didn't own my own dog until last year. I have care experience with dogs as big as Great Danes and Mastiffs and am comfortable interacting with dogs who tend to be strong willed, resistant, or even aggressive. -"They're all good dogs" <3 I am comfortable giving medication, caring for more than one dog (pet) at a time, bathing, and accommodating for animas with physical or behavioral special needs. I can promise to uphold and reinforce the same behavior that you expect from your dog when you're with them while you're away, in addition to helping develop new behaviors. I understand how important structure/consistency can be for some dogs and I look forward to building a trusting relationship with your pet so they will feel comfortable having me in their home/around them and being their (however) temporary caretaker.
Reviews
Very responsive and flexible!
Our little Paka (a cat) loves Paige and Paige is super responsive!
Paige did an amazing job!
Paige was able to help me out last minute. She was extremely helpful and very commutative. Made sure to send lots of pictures and videos of my cats. I’m very happy with her service!

I keep a LNT (leave no trace) mentality while in your home or neighborhood and/or to leave it better than I found it! Please let me know if there are operating cameras in the space(s) on your property I will be with your pet.
Information Paige B. would like to know about your pet
I’m happy to work with specific and high needs dogs or pets. I’m comfortable administering medication and can help with simple grooming like brushing and nail clipping, etc.
A typical day
I will generally spend some time post-walk to decompress inside together - sitting/snuggling/getting pets on the couch can be a good way to do this, depending on your dogs preference! I’m happy to brush your pet while I’m over.
