About: I may not have dogs of my own, but I’ve been the go-to sitter for my sister’s and in-laws’ pups over the years. I’ve cared for my sister’s diabetic dog, following medication and feeding routines closely, and looked after my in-laws’ dogs while they were away on vacation—making sure they were walked, loved, and well cared for. I’m calm, reliable, and treat every dog like family. Whether your pup needs playtime, belly rubs, or a little extra medical attention, I’m here to help! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work four days a week and am available in the afternoons and evenings after work. I’m also available all day on weekends. I love spending my free time with animals—whether it’s walking, feeding, playing, or just keeping them company. I’m reliable, flexible, and happy to provide consistent, loving care during the times I’m available. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow any instructions closely—whether it’s feeding times, walks, medications, or playtime—and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I give them plenty of attention, keep their space clean, and send updates so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. My goal is to treat your home with respect and your pet like family
“Took great care of my 2 cats. We were in the middle of a move and she made sure the cats had all the food and toys that they wanted at their disposal the whole time.”
“Mollie did an amazing job caring for my kitties during a weekend away. I appreciated her daily check-in text and pictures. We had a last minute cancellation from our booked sitter and Mollie was able to help us out in a pinch, otherwise we would’ve had to cancel plans. I look forward to booking with Mollie in the future”
“Sadie did a great job with our pup. She was kind and very responsive to us and our pup. Thank you for everything!”
“Meghan was great! The last time we hired a walker, one of our pups didn’t walk. He wouldn’t leave the house and we had to call in a favor from family. We asked Meghan to meet the dogs and cat before her first walk, and we found her to be calm, polite, and very pleasant around the dogs. They warmed up to her immediately. While we were gone, she walked the dogs twice a day, including the one who was socially anxious. Our house looked great when we got home and the animals were in very good spirits. We will definitely use Meghan again!”

About: With experience as a kennel attendant, I have worked with hundreds of different dogs, and am comfortable walking the smallest toy breeds to giant breeds like mastiffs or Great Danes.

“Rachel took the best care of my 16.5 year old cat, Zoe. My cat now needs daily medication and it was the first time I left town since she started the meds and Rachel made me feel so comfortable knowing that Zoe was in great hands! And to my delighted surprise, Rachel even hung out with Zoe and let her go out to sunbathe in her favorite sunny spot ouside. Zoe appreciated that so much! I 100000000% recommend!!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience as both a dog-sitter and cat-sitter. From high-energy large dogs to senior cats with special needs, I have done it all — and I love them all the same. My lifestyle works well for pets that require someone to be with them 24/7 due to factors like separation anxiety, medical needs, potty training, and more. I currently work from home, so I am available around-the-clock. My schedule works well for animals that need a high level of care or attention. I have a large, un-fenced yard for potty breaks and will always use a leash. In my home, we have a very small (4 lb.), low-energy female senior poodle and two low-key cats that keep to themselves. Your animals will need to be comfortable around both small dogs and cats in order to stay with us.
“Tabitha was great with the dogs! She did drop in visits while we were gone for the night. The dogs loved her so of course we would absolutely rebook her when we need her. Thank you Tabitha!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, and love any dog like it’s my own! Friends have relied on me to watch, walk and feed their dogs. I have two large Goldens of my own, and will certainly spoil yours like I do mine! Walks, cuddles, fetch, whatever you need! I’m currently working full time, but am free before or after work, flexible times depending on location. I am available anytime on the weekends! If you’re close enough to work I also have availability during the day! I currently live in Bristol but work in Rutland Vt. All prices are negotiable depending on location and amount of care your pet needs. Example: House sitting a couple hours or half the day is different than being required to stay the night, and the price will be adjusted accordingly. A watchful eye is a helpful eye! I will stay with your pet as long as you need. I’ve trained two dogs from puppies so I know what to look out for and what to avoid!

Josephine took excellent care of my elderly cat, Lucy, while my family and I were traveling for 2 weeks. She visited our house daily to give Lucy her medication, snacks, and purr-filled couch hangouts. I would definitely rebook in the future! Thank you, Josephine 😸
