Cat Sitting in New Haven

“Laura is great! We look forward to working with her!”

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!

About: I've cared for pets of my own my whole life (40+ years) including cats, dogs, birds, rabbits and fish, and have been a go-to pet sitter for friends and family for many years. I have my own web design business and work from home with flexible hours, so am able to accommodate pet care visits and dog walks into my schedule as needed. For dog walks: I can pick up your dog(s) in my car and take them for adventure walks on nearby trails, or walk them in your neighborhood. Your preference. For cat/dog pet sitting: If you're planning to be away and need a trustworthy pet-sitter, I'm happy to help. I'll make sure your pets are fed just the way you would feed them. I'll clean your cat's litter box, play with your cat/dog, offer snuggles, and give medications as needed.

“Alison is a fantastic, attentive dog sitter! I highly recommend her.”

“Lorrie is absolutely wonderful with our very spoiled, adored, lovable boys. We will continue to seek her services anytime we are out of town. She is thorough and reliable, provides detailed updates, and is a wonderful person. Thank you Lorrie!”

About: In the last decade+ I've taken care of half a dozen dogs and nearly a dozen cats for friends and through word-of-mouth, including a very senior chihuahua who was blind and deaf and needed diapers changed. I always had cats and dogs around growing up, including two difficult dogs from shelters who had issues. I live with an energetic pit-lab mix, and my parents' three rescue cats are still my sweeties. In the past I volunteered at an animal shelter, helping to socialize cats and walk dogs. I hike every day if I can, so if your dog enjoys vigorous exercise on trails, I can provide that too! I'm an adjunct college professor and freelance writer, so my work is part-time or sporadic, with much of it being done at home. If I'm available, I'll have plenty of time to linger and give attention to your pets! I'll follow your lead on what situations you're comfortable with for your pet, in terms of where I bring your dog for a walk, how they interact with other animals and people, etc.

“Kristy was great! My cats are shy to strangers but they warmed up to her before the end of the week. My kitties were well cared for. I received a note and multiple pictures of my babies daily. She was very prompt and reliable and followed the instructions I left. She also brought in my mail and watered my plants. I will definitely reach out to her again when I need a petsitter again.”

“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: Hi, I’m John — a lifelong animal lover with over 40 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and even birds. I’m also the owner of Vermont Dog Camp, where I lead off-leash group adventures for pups across Addison County. I bring decades of hands-on experience and a deep respect for every animal’s unique personality. I am insured and certified in animal 1st aid/CPR. When I’m not walking dogs with Vermont Dog Camp, I’m usually spending time at home with my own pets or caring for others in the neighborhood. Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday check-in, or a cozy evening visit, I always make time to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. I currently only offer service in the client's home or off-site for walks. Dog walks can be in town, or on public or privately owned land away from crowds and traffic.

About: I've taken care of animals my whole life, and have owned dogs and cats for the past 30 years. I can administer medications, and have experience with senior dogs and cats. I have flexibility in my hours and can do overnight or drop in visits. I am recently retired, I have a very flexible schedule and can work with you on the times that best work for you and your pets. Flexibility is key, and I can provide loving care for your pet in your home, whether it is spending the night or making visits during the day.

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.

“Lindie took good care of our cat while we were away, dropping in for daily visits.. She's attentive, responsible, professional and thoughtful. Will definitively hire Lindie again and highly recommend her to others.”

About: I’m a fur mama of one 85lb , 3 year old mush who is hyper, energetic , and very needy. I love taking him on walks, to the beach, and anywhere he can go to get his energy out. My fiancé and I are planning our dream wedding and I would love to offer pet care in your house ( or mine if your dog or dog friendly) . I would love to give someone the opportunity to go on vacation without the Warriors of their pet being lonely or not getting the attention they deserve. I’m well experienced in dogs of all breeds and sizes and emotional/ physical needs. I am a teacher Monday- Friday but have weekends and summers off. I can be there before and after school, as well. Weekends I am free. I want to offer your pet lots of love, care and engagement while you are traveling. I try to keep them on their normally scheduled routine and work with the pet parent to make sure they are comfortable or have any special requests.

“Alma took fantastic care of my 2 cats. Both require an inhaler for asthma and she was very receptive to learning the ropes on their daily care. My cats were instantly comfortable with her! I look forward to booking with Alma again!”

“Took great care of my two elderly cats! Will definitely book with Alexandra again!”

About: I had 2 dogs growing up and plenty of pet sitting experience besides my own family dogs! I was always the number one person in my family willing to take our dogs on walks, play with them, and care for them in general. I have confidence with dogs of any amount of calm to crazy! I also currently have a cat and I love and feel comfortable with taking care of cats too! Mornings and afternoons are most ideal for me as I have another full time job at night 5 days out of the week. Days I have off from work, I can pet sit any amount of hours and at anytime! I cannot bring other pets into my apartment currently as I have a blind cat who is very sensitive to other animals so I can only pet sit at a client’s home unfortunately. But at your home I can guranteee to keep watch on your pet/pets at all times and make sure they are getting lots of playtime, checking their behavior to make sure they are feeling okay, and of course following all timed instructions for feeding, walking, and/or bathing, etc. :)

“Serena was very sweet and took great care of my cat while I was away!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my high standard of pet care and always always always acting with compassion. I've been passionate about the development of dogs since the age of 10 years old. I find importance in sharing good habits from the start, using positive reinforcement techniques to ensure a happy, well-behaved companion. Additionally, I provide attentive and gentle care for senior animals, (I currently have a family Border Collie at the age of 16) focusing on their unique needs and ensuring their comfort and well-being. I'm an excellent communicator, extremely reliable and take pride in any job I acquire. My background in raising dogs and senior care allows me to offer tailored, high-quality support for pets of all ages. I'm constantly outdoors, currently am taking time with my family and am looking forward to pet care almost any time of the week. Please let me know how I can help! When caring for pets in my home, I create a comfortable, pet-friendly environment tailored to each animal’s needs. My home is equipped with cozy sleeping areas, secure play zones, and a routine that includes regular feeding, exercise, and enrichment activities. I ensure that each pet feels safe and loved, providing personalized attention and care throughout their stay. When caring for pets in a client's home, I maintain their familiar routine to minimize stress. I offer detailed updates on their pet's activities and well-being, ensuring they are comfortable and engaged. My services include feeding, exercise, administering medications if needed, and maintaining their usual environment. I also take care of any specific requests or preferences the client has, ensuring their pet receives the best care possible while they are away.

“Karen was absolutely wonderful with my two cats. She stayed in my house with them for over a week during Christmas and New Years, was a great communicator, kept me updated with photos, and I felt very reassured leaving my pets with someone so responsible. Upon my return everything was tidy, the cats were well fed with extra food and water laid out, and litter boxes cleaned. It was a great experience and so wonderful having her take care of them while I was away so I could relax and enjoy my vacation worry free.”
