Daniel was amazing when I needed him to drop-in to care for a sick puppy. I reached out to him the day before. And he was flexible and willing to help right away.

Maggie is a great pet sitter. She always knows what she’s doing when it comes to taking care of animals whether it’s house pets or farm animals. I’d say she has great experience and I would definitely trust Maggie to watch my dog or cat. She’s done pet sitting for me and she is 5 stars for sure.

Melanie is a very responsible & caring cat sitter. She was attentive to my cats needs & great at reassuring me thru pictures of their wellbeing. It was a challenging first job for her because she had to give medication twice a day to a cat she didn’t know. And it was over the holiday! But she developed a good rapport with Amma who received the medicine without incident- a statement in itself of Melanie’s warm vibe. I wouldn’t hesitate to call on her again. Jo B

About: Hi there! I’m Fawn, a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. Growing up, I was the go-to pet sitter for my neighbors, where I looked after a variety of pets, giving them plenty of playtime, exercise, and, of course, cuddles! I’ve been lucky enough to share my life with both big and small dogs, including gentle giants like English and Bull Mastiffs, Rottweilers, and Pit Bulls, as well as smaller pals like Beagles and Chihuahuas. I understand that every pet has their own personality, energy level, and routine, and I’m dedicated to tailoring my care to meet each animal’s unique needs. At home, I’m a pet parent to two wonderful cats and a dog, so I know firsthand how important it is to find a reliable, loving caretaker. While I have a full-time job, I offer flexible pet care services, with a focus on house sitting and some drop-in visits or walks depending on location. I would be thrilled to care for your furry friend! Whether they need a brisk walk, a cozy snuggle, or some good playtime, I’m here to make sure they’re happy, healthy, and safe. I can’t wait to meet your pet and give them the attention they deserve! I work full-time, averaging around 40 hours a week, which means I carefully plan my schedule to ensure I have plenty of time to give each pet the attention they deserve. Pet care fits into my routine by allowing me to focus on providing quality care during my free time—whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends. I genuinely love spending time with animals, so whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply companionship, I’m excited to fill my days with extra furry friends. Caring for pets is a great way for me to unwind and do something I’m passionate about outside of my main job. It also helps me earn some additional income while supporting my personal goals. I’m based near Barre, MA, and frequently travel to Brattleboro, VT, which allows me to offer services across a wide area, providing flexible care for pets in both locations. My main focus is keeping your fur baby safe and happy! I will follow any and all instructions you leave for your animal. I’m very communicative and super reliable.

Bryana was great looking after my cat! She sent me updates with photos, and asked questions when it was warranted. My cat warmed right up to her, and settled in for play time and snuggles. I could tell she connected with him, and that she truly has a way with animals. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs someone reliable, caring and communicative to tend to their creatures!

This was Leann's second time meeting our pup, Furaha, before and upcoming weekend dog sitting. Furaha was comfortable with Leanna from the second they met, which is rare for Furaha as she's typically very standoffish and even slightly aggressive with new humans. Leann has also been very punctual, professional, and flexible (willing to meet whenever works best for us). I'm glad to have found her through this site!
