I will be doing this mornings/evenings after finishing my full time job! I can offer services 3 times a day or walks twice a day Unfortunately I will not be providing services in my home, but I will follow all rules you have set in place to keep your babies safe!

About: My name is Ben and I live with my wife, Laura, in Canaan. I work from home and we are both available as needed throughout the day to provide close supervision, companionship and outdoor time for your pet. We grew up with a lot of pets, and have always loved being around dogs especially. We have had several Saint Bernards in the past and are comfortable with large dogs. Whatever the shape or size, we look forward to getting to know your pet and giving them the best care we can provide. We are happy to host and are flexible to travel, both weekdays and weekends.

“Sue is great! Excellent communication and very good with our dog. We booked her for weekend dog walking during ski season and it was a huge help.”

About: At age 11, I saved up $1k to buy a dog! I’ve owned, housesat, and cared for dozens of cats and dogs, from guard dogs to therapy dogs, senior citizen dogs and small dogs. I rescued a sick kitten back to health and intentionally worked at a bird sanctuary over a much swankier job. Your animal spends most if not the whole day in the company of family, often as the adored center-of-attention. We bid dear friends goodbye when your pup or cat returns home and look forward to their return! I love to take your best furry friends outdoors for generous amounts of fast-paced exercise. An animal lover, I take your pets’ needs seriously. A professional, I respect your personal privacy and need for professional, clear, positive communication and top notch, heartfelt care of your precious companion. Kennels or a separate room are only used during meal time IF children are feeding their people- food to furry pals. Your pup or feline is truly treated as cherished family! I have flexibility to support your furry family and meet their social needs! I enjoy getting outside for pet adventures and exercise in rain, shine, or snow. In addition to providing individualized attention in your home, I offer doggy daycare, drop-in cat and dog care, and boarding services on my property on wooded Mt. Cardigan in Orange. Nearly zero kenneling!

“Abbie jumped in to walk and care for our dog. Communication was fantastic throughout. We really appreciate the thoughtful care.”

Thanks so much for considering me — I’d be excited to meet your best friend. I work full‑time but from home, so I’m flexible and able to fit visits and walks into your dog’s routine. I’m here to make sure your dog feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Thanks so much for considering me — I’d be excited to meet your best friend. I’m always mindful of surroundings, other dogs, traffic, and weather. I keep leashes secure, follow your dog’s routine, and make sure they’re never put in a situation that feels stressful or unsafe. You’ll get updates, photos, and notes so you always know how your dog is doing.

About: I began my journey in animal care at the age of 15, working at a dog boarding and daycare facility. Over the course of six rewarding years, I honed my skills in managing and caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. While I later transitioned to office roles, my passion for the outdoors and animal companionship has never waned. Today, I am the proud caretaker of a diverse and lively menagerie, including my own pups, a cat, goats, ducks, pigs, cows, and chickens. My deep connection with animals drives me to offer exceptional daycare and boarding services. My property features a spacious field and a scenic wooded trail, perfect for nature walks and playgroups for local pets. I am committed to creating fun and enriching experiences for your furry friends, combining my love for animals with my extensive experience in pet care. Let’s make your pet’s day extraordinary with engaging outdoor adventures and personalized care! I can accept your fur babies for daycare or boarding 7 days a week. I also accept last minute reservations. Drop offs can be as early as 6am and pick up can be negotiable depending on the day. I have 3 playful dogs who love to have friends to romp around the field with and go swimming in the river. My property is not fenced in.

“Hilda is amazing! She put me and my dogs at ease immediately. She clearly loves dogs and my dogs already love her. 🥰 🐶”

About: I just got home from visiting my extended family and miss their dogs. I have been an ‘auntie’ to my parents, brothers and friends dogs for many years. My lifestyle is very flexible. Animals give my life, joy, fun and happiness. My college aged daughter just started using this platform and absolutely loves it! I’m excited to give it a try! I helped my daughters care for their small animals when they were little and living at home. I have helped care for my brothers and parents dogs by visiting and hanging out with them. I spent the last six weeks helping my mom with my dad who has dementia and regularly walked their dog Lucy, who I love and miss dearly.

About: I have over 15 years of animal care experience. Including experience in animal welfare in a shelter environment, working with animal rescue cases. In this position I was responsible for handling and training everything from puppies, to highly reactive traumatized dogs. If wanted, I can easily weave basic training into my stay with your dog. I currently work part time no longer in the animal welfare field as I grow my full-time pet sitting business. My love and passion for animal care has not dwindled. Providing in house pet sitting services allows me to keep that passion alive in my life. My Rover rate includes the following care: *Am Care: pee break, playtime, short walk, breakfast *Second pee break right before leaving/crating routine if needed *Pm Care: pee break, playtime, short or longer walk, dinner *Evening care: additional pee breaks, playtime, snuggles and engadgement *Kong or puzzle toy prep *Mail/package collection upon request *Please reach out if you have any questions! *If you've booked with me before please reach out for a loyality discount! With my background in shelter work I am experienced and comfortable working with reactive, fearful, and untrained animals. I provide animals with the time and space needed to become comfortable interacting with me, and set up consistent routines to give them confidence and predictability.

“Megan was super-enthusiastic, clear, and interested in having the best possible interactions and relationship with Boo. At every step, I was reassured by her approach and the way things went. In my experience, you are in good hands when you entrust your pet to Megan, and in my case that adds up to peace of mind when it just wasn’t possible to be there myself.”

About: With 20 years of experience caring for dogs, including senior dogs, I provide a warm and loving environment right from my home. I can expertly administer any needed medication, so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in great hands. Let’s keep your pup, no matter their age, happy and healthy together! I live on 5 acres of land, and pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I start each day by feeding and walking my pets, allowing them space to explore. Since I work from home, I can spend quality time with them, playing and training throughout the day. I check on their health regularly, which includes grooming and giving any needed medication. On weekends, I take them on adventures around our land. Pet care brings joy and structure to my life! I care for pets in both my home and my clients' homes by providing a safe and loving environment. In my home, I have a friendly 18-year-old Australian Shepherd who helps create a welcoming atmosphere for other pets. I ensure they have plenty of space to play and explore, while also maintaining a clean and comfortable area for resting. I follow their routines closely, including feeding times, walks, and play sessions. At a client's home, I respect their space and follow any specific instructions or routines the pet is used to. I make sure the environment is safe by removing any hazards. I also give them regular check-ins to ensure they are happy and healthy, and I am always available for cuddles and attention!

About: I grew up on a small hobby farm in Vermont and have always had animals around. In high school and college, I volunteered at High Horses Therapeutic Riding Program in Sharon, Vermont and developed a love for horses. Whether it be your cat or your cow, I am excited to meet and care for your animals and home! I am currently job searching as I just finished my master's with Middlebury College, so I have plenty of availability for the summer and possibly beyond. I am comfortable caring for many different kinds of animals and I will closely follow instructions on how you wish your pet to be cared for
