House Sitting in North Ferrisburg

“Whitney took wonderful care of our cats and lizards! She was very communicative, sending frequent pictures and updates and responding quickly when we wrote. Our pets and our house were in excellent, trustworthy hands, and we are so grateful!”

“I have known Sofia for several years and she is a responsible and caring pet sitter. She loves animals and they are drawn to her. She understands the value of consistency with caring for pets and enjoys spending time with them. I highly recommend her!”

“Matt was great! He provided regular updates and communicated quickly. He played a lot with my dog and cared for her the way I asked. He also took care of my home. I’d definitely have him house sit again.”

About: I have dog-sat for multiple breeds of dogs over the past few years, including short stop ins for potty breaks and extended house stays. I love walking and playing with dogs, and have experience in administering medications. I work full-time from 7-5 on weekdays with Wednesdays off. I can care for pets mornings and evenings, as well as weekends, and depending on location can provide drop ins. I always discuss with clients how best to care for pets in their homes, including preferred walking routes, whether runs or fenced areas are available in yards, and what additional care each pet needs to be comfortable and happy.

“Anna was FANTASTIC! We were in Essex for a wedding and needed someone to watch our 16 week old puppy. Anna was on time, constantly sent us photos, and even helped us fix our toilet in our hotel room! We could tell our puppy had the best time with Anna. She was flexible and worked with our schedule (i.e., we had a break in the day and Anna offered to take our puppy out during that time so we could rest / get ready.) We were nervous about using Rover for the first time and were SO happy we found Anna to watch our puppy. I would work with Anna again in a heartbeat!”

“Jessica took fantastic care of our cat while we were out of town for the weekend! Easy to coordinate with and great at communicating. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Anna was great!! We were gone on an extended trip, and she took great care of our three kitties. She was great with providing updates and gave our cats lots of love. Definitely would book with Anna again!”

About: I've taken care cats, dogs, and guinea pigs since I was a little kid. My family was super adventurous and we took our dogs everywhere with us. Growing up we fostered cats and dogs of all breeds and ages. I am a professional cross-country skier so I am very active during the day. I can go on many walks or runs with your dog if needed. I will be out for two hours in the morning and then free until the afternoon. Our cats are indoor cats because of our busy street. However, growing up we would let our cats out for however long they wanted and then let them in. We had a revolving door so when we were home they were allowed to go out. I will try to make you feel as comfortable and safe as possible when watching your pet.

“William was super nice and great with our pup! She was just as happy as when I left her when I came home! He was also tidy in the home. We will definitely ask William to care for our pup again!”

“Shelby was amazing!! She kept me updated with pictures and walks and took amazing care of my house while I was away! Shelby gave me complete peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands! I would highly recommend her and would love to have her watch my dog again in the future!”

“Alyson is a local business owner and an excellent and reliable dog/pet sitter!”

“Alyssa was terrific and very flexible. My dog instantly adored her. She took care of both my dog and the house and went above and beyond to meet my last minute need for an extension of our booking. Would definitely use her again!”

About: My name is Casey, I'm a student majoring in creative writing, and I'm looking to expand my house sitting portfolio. I have been a dog walker and house sitter for three clients/families in 2025 so far and love popping by for walks every two hours with your pup. Size, barking, and puppy-ness are non-issues! I have extreme patience and good shoulders. My grandma always told me to leave the house you're visiting neater than when you got there, so I have an eye for cleanliness and I don't want you to feel like someone has been living in your home when you come back. I.E. I will ask you if I can vacuum. I'm starting school in the fall at Vermont State University in Johnson, so I am free to book any time this summer, unless I have another doggie booked that day. I'm a list maker so I like to write down your instructions when we have a formal introduction. Food, walks, potty time, play time, training, and housekeeping will all be done to your standard.

“Emma was a wonderful caregiver for our high energy German shepherd and indoor kitty. She communicated frequently and sent many cute photos. We just rebooked her services for our summer trip!”

“Maggie was in great hands with Emily. At 15 Maggie is set in her ways and all went well.”

“Liz was on very short notice for us and made us feel secure in leaving our pups with her in our home even though we had not had her sit prior. She updated us with photos and video, and left our home as she found it. Thank you Liz for taking care of Tuna, Budgie, and Bug!”

“Chea was so patient and kind. Especially with our young pup whom it was a first time being left with a new person. They became quick friends, along with our cat. And I was so grateful to receive sweet photos, videos and messages over their time together. I would 100% book with Chea again! Thank you Chea!!”

“I could be away without my pups for the first time in about a year and she made me feel extremely comfortable with this process. She was very responsive and cared well for my 3 pups. Highly recommend her care to anyone! I will request her services again in the near future.”

“Deborah took such good care of our sweet dogs. We really appreciated the love and care she gave them while we were away. Highly recommend her!”

“Not only is Mattie an exquisitely attentive caretaker of her own cat, Sarge - treating him like the family he's become - but through many mutual friends her love of dogs and cats is clear to us all, and her dedication to taking care of them (from childhood to the present) is next level. Mattie loves *and* understands animals. And they certainly love her!”
