About: I live an active lifestyle and have the flexibility in my schedule to walk dogs the way they deserve! I have been caring for my own, family, and friends' pets for my entire life. There are few things in life I find more enjoyable than the simple happiness of hanging out with a pet. I really love training exercises, and believe mind exercises are just as important as physical. I believe that pets are family and should be treated like gems, which in my opinion also includes physical exercise and healthy (but yummy) treats! I can't wait to help you care for your family member! I have a flexible schedule from December 2026-March 2027 to accommodate your schedule. I do not offer any at-home care or boarding at this time, sorry! I care for my own pet like he is my child, and treat others with similar compassion. Every morning and every evening I take my own dog and frequently my house mate’s dogs for a half an hour walk around the property/in the woods. I keep schedules/routines consistent and provide daily supplements for fur, teeth, mental, and joint health. I keep routines strict and provide an excess of outdoor engagement to keep my own pets and others’ pets happy and thriving. Every pet deserves a happy healthy and active lifestyle.
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 spent years hands-on with animals through my volunteer work with Saint Nicholas Animal Rescue and Merrymac Farm Sanctuary, and years of pet sitting growing up in NYC so caring for your pet isn't new to me, it's something I already do because I love it. I'm patient, attentive, and comfortable with pets who need a little extra reassurance. I treat every animal in my care like it's my own: regular check-ins, plenty of attention, and a personal update from me so you're never left wondering how your pet is doing. I have a dog myself and have had a cat(s) most of my life. I have taken care of cats that needed medication as well. Pet care fits naturally into my routine right now, my schedule is flexible since I'm building my own business, so I have real availability across weekdays and weekends rather than being squeezed into just a couple hours a day. I check in consistently and never rush a visit and will do my best to work around your schedule. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first. In my home, my dog Monty stays in his own separate space when I'm caring for a cat, so there's no stress or unwanted interaction. I keep a calm, quiet environment, follow any care instructions exactly as given, and send regular updates so you always know your pet is safe and well cared for.
“Gabrielle is kind, reliable, communicative and clearly has a natural way with dogs. My dog felt comfortable with her right away, which says something because he can be wary of new people. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. Gabrielle went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. At the end, my dog wanted to stay with her…the ultimate endorsement!”
About: I have a great amount of experience with animals. I have cared for Bunnies,Rats, Birds, Reptiles, Cats and dogs as well. I’m familiar with treating senior dogs and cats. As well as younger animals. I’ve had animals my entire life. Starting May 15th. I will have a flexible availability. I would fit pet sitting into my daily/ weekly routine but ensuring all animals are fed and have water. I will give them some play time. If walks are needed I will ensure I arrive earlier to give any dogs walks. I have two cats. Athena and Vixen Both girls are on a strict routine. They get fed wet food twice a day and dry food once. Their wet food includes multivitamins, probiotics and allergy medications. Both cats have separate diets that best suit their needs. I ensure all things for them are done before starting my day. e.i Litterboxes, water refills, medications, food and play time. Upon arriving home I greet them and play for about 30min-1hr.
“Beatrice walks our Bernie daily - great communication with us - and we are new pet owners so texting her constantly! We have been working with her for over a month now and feel really lucky to have found her.”
About: Have owned pets my whole life, cats, fish, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters and birds. I understand and respect that your pet is your family and you want them loved and cared for you when can't be there. I work full time with regular office hours 8-5. I can be flexible but these hours are my priority so may not be able to make everything work, but will do my best. I will follow whatever guidelines you set for your pet and will make sure they feel just as safe and comfortable in my care as they do your own.
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life and would like a side job where I can help myself and also help someone else. It's hard to find rewarding jobs that fit with your 9 - 5 and I'm hoping I can find something like that here. I'm really good with all animals, and love children (which is good when you walk dogs kids always try to pet them). I'm loving, kind, reliable and have a flexible schedule. I'm open to whatever is needed and want to build a stable relationship for the dog owners who select me to help them out. I also have a degree in psychology and my family still has pets, I get to help with them as well lucky for me :) I work remote from home so I'm available all the time, which is great for pet care! My schedule is very flexible and can take lots of breaks as needed. I live alone with no pets so it's the perfect spot to board animals. I also have no problem staying at your home if that is what is needed.
About: There's nothing worse than having to leave your pet with someone you don't fully trust to care for them the way you will. Growing up with dogs, cats, rodents, fish, turtles, etc. instilled a strong sense of responsibility in me for detail-oriented and fiercely loving care for all types of pets. Among my friends, colleagues, and relatives, I have become the go-to person for drop-in walks, petsitting/house sitting, and more. Traveling or needing an extra hand taking care of your pet should not have to be a source of stress - I hope to be able to bridge that gap for you. Spending time with your sweet pet is just an added bonus! I have experience caring for dogs and cats under a year old all the way to senior pets who may require more attention (like medication administration). I have experience walking more than one dog at a time, as well as walking larger dogs up to 100lbs independently. I love playing with animals and see stimulating play as a vital part of caring for them while their owner is away. I work full-time for the University of Vermont - while I do work primarily in person, I have hybrid flexibility when I am not meeting with clients and am able to step away from work when I want and need to. My late afternoons, evenings, and weekends are typically free and flexible outside of rest and relaxation! I am located very central to the University of Vermont campus, the South End, and the Old North End. I can travel by foot, car, and bike. My shared living environment limits me from boarding animals in my home. However, I am happy to care for your pets in the space they're most comfortable in and familiar with! I can come and go from your home for drop-in walks, longer walk outings, and overnight stays if necessary. I will respect you and your pet's space and belongings. Cleanliness, organization, and safety are of the utmost importance to me.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
