“Kathryn took care of our rather antisocial and uncooperative cat during our vacation, coming twice a day to medicate her. It was not easy, but Kathryn was great about communicating with us and she creatively problem-solved to get the job done. We were super impressed with her reliability, patience and kindness. Highly recommended!! We are very grateful to her.”
“Lillian was an amazing and attentive cat sitter! She completed the daily drop ins and played with my cat and gave her lots of love. My cat can get really anxious when she's left alone but when I came back home she was at ease and happy. I am so thrilled with the care she got from Lillian!”
About: I am a current medical student in the area who has had dogs around her for her entire life. I have experience with small, medium, and large dogs of all breeds. I am responsible and quick in an emergency. I am also familiar with lots of walking trails in the area! I am a 4th year medical student with a pretty open schedule. Reach out with any inquiries and I will try to accommodate your needs! For pet sitting, I am available to stay at your home to keep your pet company as well as take them outside as often as needed.

About: I grew up with pets and have always felt that they complete a home! I’m here to help care for your pets so you can travel worry-free. I work full time but can be remote or take breaks midday to check on pets. I don’t have children so there is a lot of flexibility in my evenings as well! I can provide overnight stays for up to seven nights consecutively. I have done housesitting occasionally for years and have no problem helping your pets adjust to your absence.
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 of your dog likes to swim. Dogs and cats in my home, but there's a good sized guest bedroom that is kept closed of from the rest of my home if you have a pet that is less friendly with others.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have been caring for them since I was a young girl. They’ve always been a part of my family, so I’m comfortable with everything from dog walking to pet sitting, feeding, and even bathing. Whether it's playing with puppies or giving extra attention to senior dogs, I want to make sure each pet feels comfortable and loved. My schedule is pretty flexible! During the week, I’m available after 5 pm, mostly for dog walks. On weekends, I’m free all day and can help with dog walking, pet sitting, house sitting, or whatever your pet needs. I don’t have any dogs at home right now, but your dog will be treated like part of the family! I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment where your dog can relax, play, and enjoy their time. I make sure to follow your pet’s routine and give them the love and attention they deserve.
“Julia was absolutely excellent! My dog, Nash is a bit jumpy, nervous and skittish as he was abused prior. Julia was extremely patient with me and him, flexible with times, and diligent about updating me and texting me. Will certainly use her services again!”
About: My adult daughter brought home a pup 4 years ago and I have been forever changed. I now get the unconditional love thing. I want to be around animals more than I do people!!! SO I am relatively new at it but very enthusiastic and want to help the owners. For the summer, I wanted a little more freedom in my life so I am choosing to try pet care for three days a week, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Currently, I am not available for weekends - although there might be an occasional weekend I might be available. I am happy to care for pets in your home and will adhere to all your guidelines! I would also love to care for your dog in my home, although it is rather small.
“Carl the cat was in great hands with Sheryl!! She sent daily pictures and Carl didn't even seem like he missed me that much when I got home. I would absolutely have Sheryl cat sit again!”
“Kasey took great care of our cat while we were away! She came over to meet him beforehand and was prepared with a list of questions; she’s clearly an experienced pet-sitter and we felt very comfortable leaving our cat in her care. She spent plenty of time with him while we were gone and was even willing to take him outside on his leash and harness. We came home to a happy cat ? Kasey was also very accommodating to last-minute changes in our schedule, and sent us lots of fun photos of our cat!”
“Laura has been dependable and shows up when she says. Our pup, Ozzy, really benefits from the playtime and getting outside. Laura is great at communicating. She has recurring visits with Ozzy each week.”
About: I have about 10 years of hands-on dog experience and a solid understanding of dog body language, behaviour, and psychology. I am also currently working on gaining my first dog training certification (expected July 2025). My training specialty has landed on service dogs, but I still have experience with basic obedience, tricks, and behaviour modification. While I do work a regular job, I dedicate the rest of my time to helping you and your dog(s) in whatever way you need. Be it check-ins, house sitting, or walks! No matter what, I prioritise your pup’s comfort and safety. I pay close attention to body language and behaviour changes to make sure they stay safe, happy, and stress-free. Any instructions are followed closely to ensure your pup’s routine is kept consistent, medications are given on time, and any preferences are respected. For walks and drop-ins I focus on creating a fun, enriching experience while still prioritising safety. For house sitting, I treat your home with care and respect. I stick to your dog’s regular routine as close as possible and make sure that their needs are met. I’m also able to take your pup to veterinary and grooming appointments if needed. We can even go for a hike or to the beach with your permission! But please note I do NOT take dogs to dog parks.
About: I have taken care of my neighbors dogs and cats since I was around 8, (I am now 18), whenever they have needed me. I have always been the most loving animal person and will always take up an opportunity to take care of dogs! I’m currently working part time, and also in school for cosmetology. I am available Sundays and Saturdays all day, and Tuesdays and Thursdays after 3pm. I have grown up owning dogs of all sizes and lots of breeds and I recognize their emotions. I am confident in taking control over situations in the proper way to keep all pets safe.
About: Hello, I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and turtles. For the past four years, I’ve mostly been house-sitting/taking care of a good neighbor/friend turtle who I love dearly. I’ve put her to bed and cleaned her cage, along with feeding her while sitting with her for 3+ hours most days. I’ve learned to care for pets as if they are my own and love all animals. :)) Pet care is a vital and seamless part of my daily and weekly routine. Over the past four years, I have taken care of dogs, cats, and especially a neighbor's turtle, who I have grown to love dearly. Each day, I ensure that she is fed and her cage is cleaned, and I spend over three hours sitting with her, ensuring she feels loved and cared for. This routine has taught me to care for pets as if they were my own and deepened my love for all animals. Incorporating pet care into my schedule is crucial to me. I ensure my pet is happy and healthy, from morning walks to evening snuggles. Every activity, whether feeding, brushing, or playing, is an opportunity to deepen our bond and show my pets the love and attention they deserve. Balancing pet care with my other responsibilities, such as my involvement in ROTC at Norwich University for the past three years, has honed my discipline and time management skills. In addition to my ROTC commitments this summer, I am taking summer courses and have lacrosse practices. Despite these busy schedules, I always ensure that pet care remains integral to my routine, reflecting my dedication to their well-being. As a dedicated pet caregiver/Owner, my approach to pet care is tailored to the pet's needs and the environment. I prioritize creating a safe and nurturing space in my own home or while providing services for clients. This includes regular feeding schedules, enriching activities such as walks or playtime, administering medications if needed, and maintaining cleanliness through regular grooming and sanitation practices. Additionally, I strive to provide ample affection and attention to ensure each pet feels valued and loved, whether under my roof or in the comfort of a client's home.

Suchi J.
“Suchi has taken care of my two dogs many times and she is the most responsible and loving pet sitter there is. Both of my dogs are high needs and require daily medication, she was extremely attentive to their needs and made sure they were both comfortable. She goes above and beyond to provide a happy environment for pets and make them feel at home. I would absolutely ask Suchi to watch my dogs again.”
Danielle S.
“The Venn diagram of Dani’s level of responsibility/reliability compared to her love of animals is a circle. You want your pet to be cared for with the same attention to detail and thoroughness as Leslie Knope? Dani is your person. You want your pet to be safe protected at all costs with the fierceness of a secret service agent? Dani is your person. You want your pet to be doted on with the love and adoration of a very present grandparent? Dani is your person. You cannot go wrong here folks. Unrelated to animals but a Testament to her skills and personality: Dani is always my first answer for “who would you want on your zombie apocalypse team”… she’s level headed, common sense, dependable, resilient, medical knowledge, ecological knowledge, a great leader etc etc. If she could confidently take on the zombie apocalypse, this position will literally be a walk in the park. (In terms of actual reference, i have a dog and cat that she has cared for for me for almost a decade) Take my word for it, your pet will be in GREAT hands!”
Olive T.
“Olive is my go-to dog and cat sitter. I have two Labrador Retrievers and two Maine Coon cats. My labs love her--she stays overnight (and lets the dogs cuddle in bed with her, which is their preference), walks the dogs, plays with them, and feeds the dogs and cats according to schedule. Olive's mother is my vet--which leaves me to believe that Olive knows how to manage and handle dogs by osmosis! She is very dependable, leaves my home tidier than it was when I left, and communicates with me (texts and photos) while I am away.”

Elijah H.
“Elijah took amazing care of our 3 y/o bully fur baby Agape for 2 weeks. He gave him his meds, eyedrops, fed and walked him often and played with him as much as Agape wanted. Oddly enough, Agape accepted Elijah almost instantly (it’s odd because Agape is a rescue) and following Elijah around the house within 2-3 hours. When we return, Agape missed Elijah and was sitting by the door for over 20 mins awaiting his return. Thank you so much Elijah for taking sure great care of our fur baby. You’re apart of his pack now.”
