Cat Sitting in Middlebury

About: I’ve worked in pharmacy for 10+ years. I love all animals, and willing to learn the care your animal needs. I’ve watched friends and family’s pets for as long as I can remember. I work full time and work 10hr shifts but shift times vary and it allows me more days off in a week. I am willing to share my schedule with you ahead time to see if it works well with you. Pets need just as much attention as anything else. So I will make time accordingly that fits your needs. I have some experience giving dogs pills and supplements. I love cooking fresh food for animals, of course with your approval first of all ingredients. My fur baby recently crossed the bridge, so Im hoping to fill the void by giving your pet some love until I’m ready for another fur baby.

“Laura was stellar at caring for my pets. Very communicative and kind. My animals did not seem stressed at all when I returned home - I think a very good sign they were in great hands!”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Mara. She did twice daily drop ins and walks with my 3 Australian shepherds and kitty in my camper and followed all my crazy routines/ niche camper instructions to a T. She was timely, communicative and I know my babies were loved on in my absence. My trip ended up being delayed >30 hours and ended up with 3 additional checkins. Mara and her flexibility are the only reason I stayed sane throughout my ordeal- knowing above all my family was taken care of. 10/10. I would recommend Mara to anyone looking for peace of mind any time they need to leave town!”

About: Relationship with animals has always been a passion of mine. I started grooming dogs with my grandmother at the age of 10, but was her assistant long before I earned the title. It brings me joy and fulfillment to care for pups and cats alike, while creating an environment where they (and you) can feel safe and earn my trust in the process. As a part time bartender at Pascolo Restaurant in Downtown Burlington, it would fit into my schedule to walk dogs in the morning, afternoon and early evening as well as weekends. There is a lot of freedom to work around your schedule :) In my home, I live off of Main Street in Vergennes and can provide safe walking around town as well as some of the trails near by. In your home, I am quick to adapt to whatever will make you most comfortable!

My joy for this profession started when I couldn't find a trusted sitter and dog walker for my own animal. I decided to provide that service to others so they wouldn't have the same problem.

About: I have actively been taking care of dogs since I was a teenager, and in doing so I have worked with a variety of breeds, sizes, and dog of different ages. My manner of minding focuses on building a connection with the dog while uniquely understanding the breed and the specific needs they may need met. I'm very active and thus great with dogs who are looking to get in shape or have high energy levels. I have experience working with dogs who have been abused or neglected and re-socialising them. My home is large enough for multiple dogs of many sizes to be comfortable in as well as a short walk away from multiple parks. Both mornings as well nights are currently available Monday-Sunday.

“Karen was fantastic! My pup was quite the handful (first time) & she was so patient & knowledgeable & really went the extra mile above & beyond. Highly recommend!”
