House Sitting in Quechee

About: Hi my name is Sean. I recently graduated from RIT with a BFA in illustration. I love all animals and currently have a lot of flexibility to care for your pets while I am working from home. I grew up with two labradoodles and I have also cared for friends' animals while they have been away. One of my dogs has Addison's disease, so I am familiar with giving medication to pets. Spending time with animals brings me joy and does not seem like work - I enjoy playing with your animals, going on walks and I give a great belly rub! I am extremely responsible and will love your animals like my own...you might also find some sketches of your pet when you return home. I am an artist that is currently working from home in Quechee. I am extremely flexible and am available during the week and on weekends. I make my own hours so can work around your schedule. I live with my parents and two friendly labradoodles ages 8 and 12. I could board a dog in my home if he/she gets along well with other dogs and is house-trained. I prefer to care for your animals in your own home: I can do drop-in visits, walks and daytime or overnight house-sitting.

“Rainie did an excellent job taking care of my old kitty Coco! Coco even ended up needing some extra meds for a surprise nausea bout, and Rainie was able to give her the extra meds to finally get Coco eating again.”

“Caitlin did a wonderful job with Kobe and Xena. She kept me well informed on their status, and shockingly Xena, my cat, actually slept with her one night. Xena is picky! All went well and we definitely will use Caitlin if we leave town again this summer. Thank you Caitlin.”

“We could not have asked for a better house and dog sitter. From the moment she stepped in, it was clear how thoughtful and proactive she is — she even offered to water our plants and help with any cleaning while we were away, which was completely above and beyond. Knowing our home was in such capable, caring hands gave us total peace of mind. Most importantly, our dog Gerty absolutely adored her. Every photo update had Gerty smiling from ear to ear, and that alone told us everything we needed to know. It’s clear she truly cares about the animals she looks after, not just their routines but their happiness too. We are beyond grateful and will 100% be asking for her help again in the future. If you’re lucky enough to book her, do it — your home and pets will be better for it.”

“Suzanna treated my 2 boys as if they were her own. You could tell from the minute she met them that she is a natural borne animal lover. I have already booked her again :)”

“Josie was great! She was responsive and reached out with any questions that came up. We will definitely book with her again.”

“Evelyn arrived on time to start sitting for my pup. We especially appreciated having her at our home when our smoke detector unfortunately went off!”

“We are so grateful for Armani! We had a last minute trip come up, just before a longer pre-planned trip we had already scheduled with Armani, and she was so accommodating to stay with our dog on this short notice! We couldn’t be more grateful for the kind and thoughtful care she shared with our dog - it is a comfort to know our dog is in such good hands while we are gone. Armani is a lovely houseguest and the complete professional - we can’t recommend her highly enough!”

“James is an awesome dog and house sitter! He took the dogs on great walks and sent us some adorable pictures while we were away. We came home to two happy, calm pups and a clean, orderly house. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve never had a formal job with animals, but I’ve grown up around them and have helped with a myriad of different roles for friends, family, neighbors, etc. I have never met a dog or cat that I don’t love! I work full-time in Hanover from Monday through Friday. However, I am more than happy to fit in care before or after the work day. I am also available on weekends! My schedule is as follows: Monday: 9:30 am - 5:30 pm Tuesday: 8:30 am - 4:30/5:00 pm Wednesday: 7:30 am - 3:30 pm Thursday: 8:30 am - 4:30/5:00 pm Friday: 8:30 am - 4:30/5:00 pm I am a very thoughtful, caring, and detail-oriented person. I intend on listening to my clients’ desires and doing everything in my power to make sure the pet(s) receive everything they need!

“Cyan is an incredible dog sitter. She immediately won the heart of our little pup, and was so loving with him. Cyan is a great communicator and is amazingly intuitive about the needs of pets and humans alike!”

“Gloria was amazing! She took great care of my pup and exercised him really well. I'd love to have her house sit for me again!”

About: My mother is a veterinarian with her own practice, so I grew up around an abundance of animals and know plenty about caring for them. My career allows me to choose my own schedule, I don't usually have shifts longer than 5/6 hours long. This allows me to take dogs out for walks or to a dog park, or I can just go home and hang out with my cat. I have a large fenced in yard with access to woods, plenty of local trails for dog walks, local lake if your dog likes to swim. Dogs and cats in my home, but there's a good sized guest bedroom that is kept closed off from the rest of my home if you have a pet that is less friendly with others.

About: I have had a dog for alot of my life and have also been counted on to watch family pets over the years. I love dogs and cats, they just bring so much joy to my day I currently work 730-4 and can walk during lunch or before and after work. I can also stay at your home if that works well. I am happy to be flexible to help your pet with their needs! I am more than happy to hang out with your pet in home and take for long walks as o love to be active! I’m super flexible - whatever is best for your pet!

About: I have several years of experience caring for cats, dogs, birds, and snakes. Skills include elderly and disabled care for cats and dogs, grooming, playing, transportation, and some training. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, so I have lots of time to care for your pets! I can do overnight care on weekends, drop-off after 1pm Friday - Sunday. I have a fenced-in pen in my backyard with a dog and a bird. I have treats and shareable dog/cat toys. I tend to spend lots of time outside with dogs. I tend to meet cats where they’re at, using toys and treats for the shy ones.

“Allaire was wonderful! Communicative and easy to work with. Her beautiful dog Baloo met our boys (1 dog & 1 cat) before the stay and everyone got along beautifully! I'd highly recommend Allaire and can't wait to have her stay with our boys again.”

“We highly recommend Nicole. We had the absolute best experience with her and would 100% book her again. She has SO much dog knowledge and experience, and she knew just what to do to care for our 17.5 year-old geriatric Miniature Dachshund. Our dog was completely comfortable and happy with her, and she brought out the absolute best in our dog with both a stroller and regular walk. I can't rave enough about how happy we were with Nicole.”

“Ronan was an excellent communicator. From start to finish this was a smooth & pleasant experience. Odin (our dog) was in good spirits when we picked him up. He played well with Ronan's family dog, and must have had a calm and enjoyable overnight in their home, because he was calm and happy upon returning home. Thank you, Ronan!”

“Julia watched my two dogs & two cats for a night. She communicated well, left the house clean, and we came home to our happy healthy animals. We'll use Julia again!”

About: I have always had multiple pets, dogs and cats. I currently have a black lab named bear and a black cat named Rosie. I also have house and babysat for a number of families. I love hanging out with animals and am known to be super attentive and responsible. I work part time in the summer and often either work a morning or night shift, not typically all day and have time to play with your pups! (Or cats) I will be sure to spend ample time with your dogs outside either within a fenced area or on a leash and will make sure your house and pup are left the same way I found them.
