Pet Sitting in Poultney

“Thank you Raicheal! You were so sweet with the best boy!”

“Tim is a natural, the dogs love him. Very careful and responsible, we are very comfortable having Tim look after our two Aussies, Frank & Dee. Our guys can be a bit of a handful, very active at times (most) Tim had them under control and happy. We are lucky to have our go-to guy when we need him.”

About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals since a young age having grown up on a farm including dogs, cats, goats, horses, cows, chickens and pigs. I am responsible and reliable. I am an animal lover who enjoys going on outdoor adventures especially hiking with our furry friends. I have a flexible schedule and I am happy to accommodate my client's and their pet's needs. I can animal sit in client's home or mine, perform drop in visits and/or walks. I have a large back yard and live close to dog parks and hiking trails. I enjoy being active with my own dog and those that I am watching including hiking, swimming, and walking. I have a big car to transport animals to and from any destination, as well.

About: I've taken care of many different types of animals including dogs, cats, birds, pigs, guinea pigs, and rabbits. They've been all different breeds and sizes. I am willing to travel to your home so that your pet can stay in a familiar and safe environment for them. I work full time during the summer but am available throughout the day to stop at the house when needed and am available for overnights. I like to meet with potential clients beforehand so that they can get to know me and that I can also learn more about their pets, house, and typical schedules. This creates a foundation of trust that is important to my business.

About: I’ve had over 5 dogs growing up in Florida. Before I moved I helped take care of my sisters 3 fur babies. I’m new to Vermont, new to the professional side of pet care but I’m quick to learn. My full time job as a paramedic means I’m gone for long stretches but when I do have time off I have multiple days in between shifts that I can care for your pet with. I have a very large floor plan in my apartment where your dog/cat can explore and play while maintaining safety. I also have a very large yard for our door activities. I have trained dogs in the past and I am very quick to learn your routine so no training lessons or sessions has been missed.

About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a child from dogs and cats to horses and working on farms. I now have three dogs that I have raised and trained since puppies. They are now 5,7, and 12. I have an overwhelming love for all animals. I’m currently working at the Wheel Inn in Benson, VT. I work nights and weekends so I have extra free time during daytime hours in the week. My pets at home run free, but I do have a small area fenced in if need. When caring for others pets I will follow any guidelines they have for their pets.

“Nikki quickly got back to us, she was sensitive and careful with our cat who is dealing with a difficult illness. We really appreciated her support and would highly recommend her.”

“Cristina is everything you would ever want in a caregiver for your pet. Not only is she kind and loving but she has a tremendous amount of knowledge of dogs' behaviors and needs gleaned from her own study, from participation in classes taught by renowned trainers and from years of hands on experience with her own dogs. You can be 100% confident that she will be reliable and will go to great lengths to provide exceptional service.”

“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!!”

“Hannie is the best. She lets me sniff everything and explore. When I want to run, she runs with me and when I am the goodest girl, she gives me an extra scratch and a treat. We have the best conversations about the squirrels and the birds. She even teaches me how to jump over things, under things and goes in the water with me. When we go for a car ride to get to the best sniffing spot, she hooks me in just like my mom does. She also knows how to give the best scratches. When I'm a little cranky, she takes me home and we curl up for a nap. I know she likes my kisses and she even runs zoomies with me when I get excited! Hannie is the best and I get so excited to see her. She even cleans up after me and doesn't make a fuss!”

“Laura was absolutely wonderful! She let my puppy out for bathroom breaks and playtime for an hour while I was working long days. I always received picture and video updates of what Luna was up to and she even helped work on commands.”

“She’s the best! Whit and Larry love her.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a kid! My family has always had dogs, and I currently have a cat. Taking care of others’ pets is something I hold near to my heart, because I would want someone like me to look after my pets. I’m an elementary teacher trying to make ends meet. I am sure to spend quality time with your pet while you’re away. You can be sure your pet will have the best care with me (: I am able to get to your pet on time. I am thorough, follow instructions and routines, so you know I’ll care for your pet just as you would!

“Emily is always great with my 2 pups! She does a great job and is quick to respond to messages ! Great updates !”

“Maggie is fantastic! It’s so obvious that she loves animals and what else can you ask for from a pet sitter? She is a very smart and caring young woman and caters to our pets needs. We could not be happier with Maggie and we plan to hire her for all of our future pet sitting needs. Thanks Maggie!”

About: Since I was little, animals have always been my passion. Watching your animals would be a dream come true for me. I have two animals. I have a cat and a leopard gecko that I take care of everyday. I had a family pug that recently passed away due to a rare form of GI disease which I also took care of for 11 years! I would love to have the opportunity to take care of other peoples animals everyday and enjoy it. Animals have always helped me through very tough times especially through anxiety, stress, and depression which I go through a lot in my life. They always know how to make me feel better which is an amazing feeling. I tend to keep your pets happy and safe whenever I am with them :) I’m currently working full time at Riverside Vet Care as a Vet Tech! :) I have two days off which changes throughout the week but I also have some time after work where I’m pretty flexible as well! Communication is very important to me regarding the animals! I’m in the process of moving at the moment but that soon will change. I always make sure my animals are taken care of including feeding and making sure they are active. That includes clients animals as well, they are my number one priority :)

“Jennifer watched my toy poodle for me so I could work an event that went later than expected. She was easy going about it and accommodating. She sent me updates and made me feel very comfortable while I was gone. It’s easy to tell she has a love for animals and is knowledgeable in their care. I will definitely be contacting her again!”

“Hannah is very reputable when it comes to animals she is caring, compassionate and reliable. She has been around our dogs a lot and always treats them as her own she is one of the best and takes pride in working with animals ❤️ Highly recommended and trustworthy”

About: I have a husky two cats and a bunch of reptiles. The cats can be seperated from any anti kitty pups. I love pets and I love babysitting. I have experience with all age dogs and cats. As well as experience with almost any reptile you can think of :) I work Monday through Friday from home 2pm-8pm so I’m always home to supervise the pups. I can walk whenever needed as my schedule is very flexible and my partner works the same job so she also can step in if needed. We have an unfenced yard that I walk the pups in, dogs always have a leash on before the door opens so no one can sneak out. I do separate bowls in separate rooms for feeding time and have my dog used to being around different dogs so there’s no issues there. I tend to be the kind of sitter that enjoys spending time with your dog rather than just allowing the pup to spend time in my home. Lots of pets kisses and treats are what our house is about:) I will make your pup feel at home.

“Kayleigh does such a great job with our dogs! She is so good at keeping them entertained while we are away. And we love that she is a vet tech, which was really helpful when our German Shepard had knee surgery. I love knowing my pets are safe and happy with Kayleigh.”
