House Sitting in North Troy

“Georgia was superb. She not only took excellent care of our dog and cat, but also of our home. Both of our pets seemed very relaxed upon of our return, and showed no signs of stress at all. This means something, as our dog is getting older and is generally a pretty anxious dog. Georgia seems to have a special touch with animals, and we would love to use her as a sitter again in the future.”

“Brooke was a great sitter for our fur baby! She and Dude bonded at their first meeting. We received pictures and an update daily while we were gone. We would definitely have Brooke stay with Dude again.”

“Ilia is a wonderful sitter. In the single night she spent with our cats, they were clearly happy, content and not missing us at all. It is such a gift to have someone like Ilia care for our beloved animals. Thank you.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Shannon! She followed our directions perfectly, making sure our dog felt comfortable and cared for. She even gave him lots of cuddles, which he loved. We found her to be reliable and trustworthy, and it was great to know our dog was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up on a farm in Lowell. We always had plenty of cats and dogs to play with. And I have always loved animals. I have experience with watching dogs regularly for a home with 13 dogs so that has been quite the adventure but I love it. I love to give them treats and play with them and just plain spoil them with attention. The owner was concerned about them taking to a new person but they took right to me. Pets do seem to take to me well. And now I am looking for more furry friends so I hope you will contact me! I work from home and I make my own hours. So I am quite flexible. I can do overnights or day visits or walks. I am in Newport Center village but am willing to go within 20 minutes depending on the job. For overnights on a regular basis I may do about 25 minutes away. If you are in Newport Town, Newport City, North Troy, Troy, Jay, Coventry, Irasburg, and Derby these are all well within my area. Others like Brownington, and Barton and Albany and Derby Line and maybe Craftsbury are possible depending on situation. As far as safety, and trust, I mostly do sitting in the client's home so I will do whatever the client wishes, and make sure the pets are safe.

“Agnes was fantastic - just such a nice person and our dog loved her. She stayed in our home, and I can’t event tell she was here. We’ll definitely seek Agnes out again in the future!”

“Maria was outstanding to say the least! Everything I could have asked for! Not only did she take Loki for adventures with her amazing dog Lalo but she also updated me the entire time! Loki was completely at ease when we got home. Leaving Loki with Maria was like a mix of having my own aunt and sister in law with him. She is an absolute game changer and we are so grateful to have her in our lives! ? ❤️”

“Heavenly Hayley! My cats are demanding and complicated little goblins but Hayley made me feel like she was their biggest fan. I knew Hayley was indulging all their quirky needs so my time away was even more fun and relaxed. Her presence made everyone's life better. I hesitate to write the review she deserves because she will get too popular on Rover and I might never be able to leave home again.”

“Emily was a fantastic dog/house sitter!! She sent updates/photos of our Pup, was very responsive and professional, and left our house cleaner than when we left! We would not hesitate to book with Emily again!”

“Faye was a great dog sitter! She was on time, communicative, and flexible with our changing schedule. Our dog was on medication that prohibited strenuous exercise and Faye was very mindful of taking short and calm walks with our dog. I would definitely use Faye again next time I am in the area.”

“Steven took great care of my dog while I was away for about a week. It was a last minute trip and Steven was incredibly flexible to help me out in a pinch. He sent updates and pictures throughout the week to let me know that all was well. Thank you!”

About: Having been a pet owner for all my life, I am familiar with all sizes and temperaments of dog and cat breeds. I also have experience caring for bunnies, birds and livestock. I’m recently retired so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pets. My house is available if you need boarding or I can come to you. When your dog is in my care they will not be off-leash while outdoors unless you have a safe space for them, such as a fenced-in yard. They will get pets and cuddles, treats and exercise. I will follow your written instructions for their care and require your cell number as well as access to your vet.

About: I currently work full time as a veterinary technician and have years of experience with all types of animals. I also grew up on a farm and currently work on a horse farm as a hobby in my free time. I throughly enjoy pet sitting and spoil them as if they are my own. My favorite part of the job is meeting new people, their pets & all the different personalities i get to enjoy. I want to make your pets as comfortable & happy as possible while you’re away. I stick to their daily routines to have some normality while you’re gone. I have a lot of knowledge with animals and their health. I’ll be able to take care of your pet daily and if there is any emergencies or issues, I’ll know how to safely handle them. I’m also comfortable administrating medications. My schedule is pretty consistent each week. Each work day is typically 8 hours long but some days are shorter than others. Depending on location, lunch time breaks are available! My biggest responsibility is safety; keeping your pet safe while happy is my top priority. This goes for while on walks, adventures or even just bathroom breaks. As well as any sickness that may come up while you’re gone. Being a veterinary technician, i can realize a sickness sooner than others and know the right course of action.
