Dog Walkers in Orange, VT

“Abbey has been incredibly responsive and helpful with daily walks for our dog! Our pup is a little standoff-ish at first, and Abbey was patient and kind through this process. She also volunteered to come meet our dog before the first walk, which really helped put us at ease.”

About: I've been taking care of pets (cats, dogs, and rabbits) my entire life. One of my career highlights was working at the Philadelphia Zoo. Granted, I was working as a puppeteer, but I love being around animals every day. I currently have two beloved cats of my own, and I'm excited to meet your pets! I'm also a freelance puppeteer and writer - so when I'm between projects I have a very flexible schedule and will be happy to take care of your pets! I pride myself on being good with animals, love winning them over, and am a very empathic person. While I love a friendly creature, I'm also good at giving animals space if they're shy around new people, etc.

I am also a pre-veterinary student with basic animal care knowledge! I have worked with a variety of breeds ranging from retrievers and pointers to terriers and toy-breeds.

Caring for pets is one of my passions so it is easy to make it a part of my daily routine, even while I'm working! Please note, I do work full-time and as such my week-day schedule is typically limited but I am happy to discuss specific options. When caring for your pets they become like my own. I supervise outside time, even if there is a fence and always keep them close!

About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with my grandparents having many dogs and cats at once and would care for them while they would leave town. I have cared for my friends and families pets and love it!! Service I provide include, boarding, walking, and boarding at your home if that fits your needs. I am currently working part time and my partner Liam works full time when he’s away at work I’m around, and when I’m at work a couple nights a week he’s home! Leaving us with lots of time to be with your fur babies I am currently not offering boarding at my home. But with house sitting I would communicate with you as to what your pup needs and follow your directions/routines

About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting and had my own dog for many years. Now, I have experience from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays, with many different types of needs. I’m dedicated to caring for a pet the same way their owner would and look forward to spending time with animals. I work from home most days and can accommodate a flexible potty schedule and activity level. I enjoy taking breaks to spend with pets, to get outside or tuck in on the sofa! I have an enclosed garden and large, unfenced yard. We are well back from the main road so pets are welcome to explore the neighborhood.

“Shannon is fantastic! She walked our very rambunctious dog every day for almost three weeks while I recovered from an injury. Shannon is prompt, reliable, and communicative. She took our dog on vigorous hour-long walks that left the pup snoozing and calm the rest of the day. The dog is already hoping I'll re-injure myself so she can see Shannon again. I will definitely turn to Shannon again for dog walking!”

About: Able to animal sit 24/7, will and able to handle any type of animal with any special needs. Has experience with senior care and special diets. I have a remote job, so I am able to come over and take care of animals along side my normal job as long as there's wifi. I have time for breaks to be able to go on walks and play, while also able to just be there as a warm lap to lay on and someone to give pets. Big into schedules to be able to give animals a happy and loving life. I like to follow the already daily routine pets have. From where they sleep and eat, to what time they eat. With dogs I'm willing to take them out on walks on the leash till I know they'll recall to me, unless you live on a property that they run free on often.

About: I have owned a Yellow Lab my entire life and have been responsible for taking care of him. I have also provided care for pets of my neighbors and others in my community.

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was about 11 years old — it started with neighbors, family friends, and anyone who needed a hand, and it quickly became something I truly love. Being around dogs has always come naturally to me. I’m patient, calm, playful, and super intuitive with animals, especially dogs of all kinds. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while their people are away. Over the years, I’ve built real trust with the people I’ve worked with. They know their dogs are in good hands with me — whether it’s for a quick walk or a whole weekend. I’ve looked after energetic puppies, shy rescues, older dogs needing meds, and everything in between. This isn’t just something I do — it’s something I genuinely care about. I currently go to barber school from 8:30-5 on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. If you need a little check in or letting your dog out after that on those days I would definitely do that! Other than that I am open 6-11pm on every other day unless I have something else going on. If you ever need to know just always reach out if needed! I live in an apartment complex but I usually let me dogs free inside and if they need it I usually bring them to the dog park to get all that playfulness out. I am very attentive so your dog will never be left alone! I have 2 dogs medium size and one likes to relax while the other loves to play but she knows her limits, if the other dog does not like it she does stop.

About: Looking for a reliable pet sitter? Whether you need me for a weekend trip or extended care, I provide a safe, loving environment for your pets while you’re away. Give me a call to chat—I’d love to learn more about your furry (or feathered, or scaly!) family. Why Choose Me? Beyond providing the basics—feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles—I bring years of hands-on experience with animals of all kinds. Some things you can expect when your pet stays with me: ✔ Attentive, Reliable Care – I follow your pet’s routine to keep them happy and stress-free. ✔ Regular Updates – Want photos or messages while you’re away? Just ask! ✔ Comfortable for All Pets – From energetic puppies to senior pets, I adapt to their needs. ✔ Experienced with Special Care – If your pet has medications, dietary needs, or mobility issues, I’m happy to accommodate. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, small animals, birds, reptiles, fish, and even farm animals like horses, cows, and chickens! A Little About Me Animals have always been at the heart of my life. I grew up around horses and farm animals, spent time volunteering with shelters, and have fostered and rehabilitated animals in need. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. I take their happiness and well-being as seriously as my own, whether that means preparing fresh meals, making sure they stick to their routine, or just giving them lots of love and attention. When I’m not with animals, you can usually find me out in nature, making art, gardening, or learning new skills in bushcraft, herbalism, and homesteading. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day to provide care, attention, and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to stick to your pet’s routine. I follow each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I respect your home, keeping it clean, secure, and just as you left it.

About: Hi there! I’m an elementary school teacher looking for a fun summer gig. I would love to walk your dog or check in on your cat while you’re away. Proud owner of 2 chihuahuas, but have previously owned big dogs too. Thanks for considering! I have lots of availability this summer being on summer break! I could give your dog a walk, or check in your cat. Mornings, afternoons, or evenings! I would defer to you as to what safety looks like (harness, leash, collar, etc). My two dogs have name tag collars, and leashes. I have walked dogs with harnesses as well. Sometimes I need a little instruction as to how to put it on (some designs are tricky!), but in the end I always figure it out!

“Bella helped me out last minute and gave me some peace of mind during a long work day. Great service!”

About: I have been walking and pet sitting since I was younger. I would watch and walk my neighbors dog for them when they went away. I recently graduated from UVM with my B.S in animal science hoping to go to Vet school in the future. I have worked with more than just dogs and cats, but livestock too. I work at a vet clinic as a vet technician right now and walk/ pet sit for families in the area now. I work a full time job at a vet clinic but have availability before and after work, as well as weekends. My hours do vary on certain days so feel free to reach out regardless! I do have a good size backyard. It is not fenced in but I have do have 4.5 acres of land behind my house. There are also walk/hiking trails down the road from my house.

About: Hello, I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and turtles. For the past four years, I’ve mostly been house-sitting/taking care of a good neighbor/friend turtle who I love dearly. I’ve put her to bed and cleaned her cage, along with feeding her while sitting with her for 3+ hours most days. I’ve learned to care for pets as if they are my own and love all animals. :)) Pet care is a vital and seamless part of my daily and weekly routine. Over the past four years, I have taken care of dogs, cats, and especially a neighbor's turtle, who I have grown to love dearly. Each day, I ensure that she is fed and her cage is cleaned, and I spend over three hours sitting with her, ensuring she feels loved and cared for. This routine has taught me to care for pets as if they were my own and deepened my love for all animals. Incorporating pet care into my schedule is crucial to me. I ensure my pet is happy and healthy, from morning walks to evening snuggles. Every activity, whether feeding, brushing, or playing, is an opportunity to deepen our bond and show my pets the love and attention they deserve. Balancing pet care with my other responsibilities, such as my involvement in ROTC at Norwich University for the past three years, has honed my discipline and time management skills. In addition to my ROTC commitments this summer, I am taking summer courses and have lacrosse practices. Despite these busy schedules, I always ensure that pet care remains integral to my routine, reflecting my dedication to their well-being. As a dedicated pet caregiver/Owner, my approach to pet care is tailored to the pet's needs and the environment. I prioritize creating a safe and nurturing space in my own home or while providing services for clients. This includes regular feeding schedules, enriching activities such as walks or playtime, administering medications if needed, and maintaining cleanliness through regular grooming and sanitation practices. Additionally, I strive to provide ample affection and attention to ensure each pet feels valued and loved, whether under my roof or in the comfort of a client's home.

“Makenie was fantastic! I was in need of someone to walk Lucy while I was at work and staying in town for another week, and Makenzie responded quickly and was able to help me out on relatively short notice. I got a picture and update of what and how she did each day while I was at work. It eased my mind to know that Lucy got out, got to do her business, and would be okay to wait the rest of the day until I got home. I would definitely recommend Makenzie for anyone needing reliable and friendly service. Thanks Makenzie!”
