House Sitting Richmond

“Cheyenne was terrific. I would love to have her stay here again. She was punctual, polite, and did a great job in general. Took my energetic, large dog to the dog park multiple times. She paid attention to everything I shared with her about the animals, and they were all happy. I have two cats as well.”

“Reed was fantastic! His communication was excellent and he provided updates so we knew he and our dog were both doing great. He showed up on time and was flexible about when he’d depart wanting to ensure our pup wouldn’t be alone too long. Thank you Reed!”

“We love having Matt watch Lilly. She also loves when Matt comes to play with her, because she gets spoiled. He takes her on lots of walks and plays with her. We get lots of updates with pictures or videos.”

About: I have been my friends and some families go to house and pet sitter for a very long time. While I mostly have experience with cats and dogs I like to take care of all pets. I like to take pictures to catch the funny moments. While I am in school this give good flexibility for dropins/walking and overnight stays letting me easily fit into you and your pets schedule. While I can't take care of your pet in my home, I can do house sitting and dropins/walks. I am familiar with complex nutrition requirements for different animals as well.

“Bailey was wonderful while we were away during fireworks weekend in Burlington VT. Our 7 year old black lab greyhound is an anxious boy and very skittish with the booms and the bangs. Bailey kept him calm and relaxed without all the meds we suggested merely with her own relaxed self and a bit of music playing in the background. We received updated texts and photos helping us not to worry, our boy has a new friend and we have an excellent sitter. Reach out to her, she’s communicative, reliable and personable. You’ll appreciate her as much as we did!”

Howard And Candace H.

“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!”

Karola C.

“Beatrice was so sweet with our 2 little pups. They took to her right away, and when we returned, they seemed to be very comfortable with her! We will certainly reach out to her on our next visit to Burlington. Thanks!”

About: I have had a dog for 40 years, in addition to other pets. I love all animals (more than most people 😊) and I love spending time with them. In addition to owning pets, I have also volunteered for dog rescues. I have cared for friends’ animals as if they were my own. Currently, I am not working for the summer and have a very flexible schedule. I can carve out chunks of time to spend with animals to give them attention, food, and exercise. I will continue caring for animals in the same way that owners do in their household, following all rules, routines, and expectations. I am an active person and happy to take a dog for a walk or a run.

“If I could give Nina 10 stars, I absolutely would! Recently, I had the pleasure of entrusting my two German Shepherds to Nina's care, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From our very first communication, I felt completely confident that my dogs were in the best possible hands. Nina's professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine love for animals are truly exceptional. Throughout her time with my pups, Nina provided regular updates twice a day – morning and evening – which was the perfect amount. The photos and videos she sent gave me immense peace of mind, knowing my pets were happy and well-cared for. It was evident from the updates that Nina prioritized my dogs' needs and routines with impeccable attention to detail. My dogs not only received plenty of exercise and took their medicine as needed, but they also enjoyed lots of love and cuddles. Even my shy pup quickly warmed up to Nina, relishing every moment of their time together. We returned home to very content dogs and a spotless house. Nina is not just a dog sitter; she is a true animal lover who treats your pets as if they were her own. If you are searching for a trustworthy, caring, and exceptional dog sitter, look no further than Nina. She is simply the best!”

“Sophie stayed with our Border Collie and 2 cats while we were gone and she was truly wonderful. She gave our pup good long walks and her calm presence even managed to coax our very skittish cat to come out of hiding. She sent lots of pictures and updates, which we really appreciated. We don't leave the animals often, so when we do, it's very comforting to know that they're in good hands. She also left the house in perfect shape. We highly recommend Sophie!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life and have experience with a variety of breeds and personalities. I was raised with Labs, Golden Retrievers, Doodles, and mixed breeds, and I currently have a pit mix of my own. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk, stopping by to check on your cat, or caring for your pet while you’re away, my goal is always the same: to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. While I work everyday during the day, I have time in the evenings and all day on the weekends to either take your little ones for walks or feed them or play with them. My dog is allowed on any couch or bed, she doesn’t have many restrictions other than jumping on tables, she sleeps on our bed or the guest bed depending on her mood lol. When it comes to sitting at your house, I will make sure your pup stays on their routine and follows any house rules that are in place!

About: I’ve been taking care of family dogs as well as those of friends, neighbours, and extended family for about 15 years. I’m a lover of dogs of all sizes and breeds, and doing activities from walking, hiking, running, playing and even just chilling on the couch! Over the last couple of years I’ve been watching a few different senior dogs over night for long periods of time, providing medications and other remedies they may need. I’m currently between jobs so I am currently free Monday through Sunday, morning, noon or night for both day time care as well as overnight stays with any furry friends. I am currently living just outside of Burlington in a fenced in back yard with one 9 year old pug named Duke. I have enough space here for your pet to run around and play either solo or with my dog. I at this point do not have the capacity for overnight stays but am working on creating a space where that can be possible! In regards to other care, I am able to stay over night, check in daily or even just walk your pet when needed! I have a car so I can meet just about anywhere and take your pet on little adventures if desired. I love to stay active so playing, walking, hiking, running and swimming are some of my favourite activities to do! However if needed I can kick my feet up and be a homebody for the more lazy pups.

“Liz and Hayden were great! Responsive communication, photos and clearly experienced with dogs. Friendly and respectful. Quinn had a great time! Thanks!”

Brian C.

“Steven is great! He’s friendly and our dogs couldn’t have been happier and more well taken care of when we got home. He was quick to take our sitting job in a pinch and we look forward to having him hang with our dogs again in the future!”

“We have had a range of sitter experiences over the years from mediocre, good, to incredible and Sarah hands down is the best pet/house sitter we have truly ever had. Not only did she provide photos and detailed updates of the pets, she kept our house impeccably tidy to where it felt untouched coming home. From her daily updates it was very evident she treated our pets with love, genuine kindness, and was very engaged with their well being and activities while we were away. She was attentive to any changes in behavior our dog had due to fireworks and some anxiety which was incredibly reassuring knowing nothing was being shrugged off or looked over. Finding quality care can be hard to come by and Sarah sets the bar beyond measure. If you are able to book with Sarah consider yourself one of the lucky ones. Looking forward to future sits!!”
