House Sitting in Richford

“I am so grateful for the care provided for our cats! It felt clear that she understood how to meet and make each cat comfortable! I believe our cats felt supported and safe because August did everything to keep the cats routines. We feel so grateful and will book again!”

“Anna was terrific. She spent quality time with our pets, cared for our house, sent pics and updates and was very flexible to meet our needs. I'd recommend her and will use her again.”

“Once again, Georgia provided superlative care for my cat. She also sent me some great pictures of the two of them. It was pretty obvious that my cat was having a grand old time. Georgia is very good with communication and always asks questions if I’m not clear. I hope to see her again.”

“Bev was a wonderful companion for my kitten while I was away. She left the house spotless. And she was good about communicating with me regularly. I'd hire her again, most definitely.”

About: Life long, I grew up with cat's and dogs. Along with other animals in the household. Mainly growing up with two cat's and a herding dog but also two small lap dogs. I'm working Fridays and weekends. Along with heading to college in the second to last week of August so right now Monday - Thursday are my available days I have two pet Friendly dogs that love to play and I would take them to dog parks to be able to get energy out in a safe and monitored environment.

“We had a wonderful experience with Shannon! She followed our directions perfectly, making sure our dog felt comfortable and cared for. She even gave him lots of cuddles, which he loved. We found her to be reliable and trustworthy, and it was great to know our dog was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Ilia is a wonderful sitter. In the single night she spent with our cats, they were clearly happy, content and not missing us at all. It is such a gift to have someone like Ilia care for our beloved animals. Thank you.”

“This was our first time using Rover as first-time dog parents and we were happy to have Sarah as our sitter! She not only stopped by our home throughout the day over the holiday weekend to walk our puppy (with the occasional trip to the dog park!) but she kept an eye on our 1 year old cat as well. She provided updates to calm our nerves of leaving the two animals home alone and was really easy to connect with prior to our trip. Looking forward to having her help again in the future!”

Beth U.

“Agnes was fantastic - just such a nice person and our dog loved her. She stayed in our home, and I can’t event tell she was here. We’ll definitely seek Agnes out again in the future!”

Samantha S.

“Maria was terrific. She has a sweet, calm manner and handled the responsibilities perfectly. Her dog and my dog were very compatible. Maria sent updates with photos and texts. The house was just as I left it and my dog had clearly been well cared for. Its so reassuring to know, if I have this need again, I now have a great person I feel I can depend on.”

Anne L.

“Heavenly Hayley! My cats are demanding and complicated little goblins but Hayley made me feel like she was their biggest fan. I knew Hayley was indulging all their quirky needs so my time away was even more fun and relaxed. Her presence made everyone's life better. I hesitate to write the review she deserves because she will get too popular on Rover and I might never be able to leave home again.”

“Emily is the best! Extremely conscientious and a blessing to my 2 babies while my husband and I traveled. She treated them like her own we are so appreciative of the care and attention she gave all of our animals while we were away! Highly recommend!”

Melissa T.

“Steven took great care of my dog while I was away for about a week. It was a last minute trip and Steven was incredibly flexible to help me out in a pinch. He sent updates and pictures throughout the week to let me know that all was well. Thank you!”

About: I’ve helped take care of my family’s Australian Labradoodle, Penny, ever since we got her, 5 years ago. In these past couple years I’ve facilitated dozens of “doggy play dates” (communal dog walking and play time at dog parks and backyards) with dogs of all different sizes. I am very comfortable and confident with all types of dogs, and often dog sit and dog walk for friends and neighbors when they are out of town. I currently live in Burlington and am free on weekends and after 5pm MWF and after 6pm Tuesday and Thursday. I am able to spend as much time as needed with your pets if it makes you, or them, more comfortable! I’m comfortable caring for pets in new environments. I can crate, feed, walk, and play with your animals, and will be clean and respectful to your space and home.

About: I promise to keep your fur baby safe and happy as can be while you're away. I will provide playtime, walks, cuddles and a lot of attention. I am very interactive and not afraid to be goofy in order to make a genuine connection with your pet. Don't be afraid to leave me detailed instructions- I get it and have fur and feathered babies of my own! I am able to walk up to 2 to 3 big dogs at a time and feel confident in my abilities to give commands and appropriate rewards/disciplines. If your pet(s) gets dirty, I will bathe them as well as clean up any messes that occur. I also will keep your home sweet home neat and tidy so you never come home to a mess. I have grown up with pets and have always owned one or two.. okay, maybe 3 at a time. I make genuine connections with animals (wild ones, too) and would love to give them the opportunity to get outside all season long (even in the winter). If your pet would like an adventure buddy and companion who will distract them from your absence then give me a shout. Feel free to contact me with questions and concerns. I would be more than happy to chat with you!

About: I have a full range of animal history and care. I have chosen dogs to accommodate and love unconditionally when you must be away from your best friend! I offer a variety of animal care and services, including one on one to fun play sessions for pets with like personalities. I am confident we can find what is necessary and essential for each unique situation. We don’t have problems we specialize in solutions together! I am currently retired and found a way to incorporate exercise and love for animals in a great combination for both myself and our furry faces. I travel regularly to render my time and care for others pets in many locations. I have many opportunities and accommodations to suit each unique dog situation. I am willing to follow pet owners regiment to almost an exact replica if possible. Let’s talk a see how I can help make the transition stress free when you must be apart. I travel to accommodate situations necessary.

About: My parents bred our labs a couple of times when I was a kid, so puppies and dogs have always been in my life. In college I bought my own puppy and had her for a wonderful almost 10 years. She was my best friend and I talked to her and kissed her all of the time. She made me feel happy when my days were gray. Since then I’ve dog sat for multiple families and borrow my friends’ dogs to go for walks and adventures since I no longer have a pup of my own. I work three 12 hour shifts a week so I would love to spend my free days with dogs. I’ve watched my friends dogs even on work days because I work 7a-7 p so I can be there for breakfast and dinner. Most of the time I’ve stayed in their homes so that the dog feels most comfortable. I have no other pets in my home and your pup will get all the belly rubs and scratching they need. I love to go for walks and be active with the dogs (of course only if they’re capable)

“The pups loved Mayla! We were away for the week and Mayla stayed at our house to watch our two dogs. It’s hard being away from the fur babies but Mayla sent us pictures every day which made it easier. Our two dogs loved snuggling with her which made us feel so much better about leaving them knowing they were so comfortable with her.”

About: Having been a pet owner for all my life, I am familiar with all sizes and temperaments of dog and cat breeds. I also have experience caring for bunnies, birds and livestock. I’m recently retired so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pets. My house is available if you need boarding or I can come to you. When your dog is in my care they will not be off-leash while outdoors unless you have a safe space for them, such as a fenced-in yard. They will get pets and cuddles, treats and exercise. I will follow your written instructions for their care and require your cell number as well as access to your vet.

“Julia is a communicative, responsive and loving sitter. She took excellent care of my high-maintenance dog while I traveled abroad for an extended period of time. She put my anxiety about the process to bed within the first couple of days. I would not hesitate to recommend her to friends and family.”
