Pet Sitting in Rutland

About: I have been working as a veterinary assistant at a veterinary clinic in Florence for the past 4 years. I have experience caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I am Fear Free Certified and strive to keep every pet happy, comfortable, and as stress-free as possible while you’re away. I do work full time as a veterinary assistant currently, but am pretty flexible with scheduling for in home pet sitting. I am available for drop in visits and walking on Monday, Tuesday and Friday mornings and evenings, anytime on Wednesday and Thursday, and late afternoon/evening on weekends. I will care for your pet in your home where they feel most comfortable. I will offer play time, walks, and even medication administration if needed. If your pet has any special needs I’m sure I can help!

“Brooklyn did a great job! We are so grateful she was able to taking care of our for the weekend! We appreciate the updates and the pictures, it's so reassuring to know they're well looked after and loved on! We would definitely love for her to come back again!!!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for pets is second nature to me. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, a rabbit, turtles, snakes, and fish. I currently have two dogs, a cat, and a snake that I’ve raised and cared for daily—my snake has been with me for 15 years, my dogs for about 8 years, and my cat for the past year. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I bring patience, attentiveness, and genuine love to every animal I meet. Whether it’s energetic puppies, senior pets, or more unique companions, always providing patient, reliable, and loving care. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me lots of flexibility and free time to dedicate to caring for pets. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust easily to your schedule. This allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship without feeling rushed. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I always follow your instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or just giving extra love and playtime. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I’ll treat your pets with the same patience and care I give my own.

“Harley seemed to have a good visit with Hannah! It was a semi-long day for Harley in the crate, but he was still tired for bed which means he must of had a good energy release when Hannah visited.”

“Casey was great watching my two cats while I was gone for over a week! Very easy communication and she sent me so many photos which was great for my peace of mind. My cats warmed up to her so quickly and the photos she was sending me cuddling with the boys made me know my cats were well taken care of while I was away. I’d recommend Casey to anyone looking for someone to watch their pet while they are away, thanks Casey!”

“Lauren was great! She offered a meet and greet and I felt very comfortable leaving kitties under her care. During my time away, she kept me posted with pictures and comments. I would recommend her any day! Thank you, Lauren :).”

“Glenn was amazing! Great communication, lots of pictures and updates. He asked thoughtful questions before sitting for us and our pups were relaxed and happy when we got home. Highly recommend!”

“Kennedy was a perfect temporary cat mom for our little old cat. She always sent a photo and a detailed description of his food intake and whether he took his medicine well. I will definitely have Kennedy care for our cat again!”

“Mariah not only helped us out immediately, when we were in a tight spot, but she went above and beyond taking care of our cats while we were away. She was absolutely amazing with updates and information and we couldn’t be happier with her. You can absolutely trust her to take care of you and your pets needs. Thank you Mariah!”

About: I have been caring of a variety fur babies since I was a kid. I have experience with working with both younger and older fur babies. I am currently working full time while coming my masters online in counseling so I do have flexibility with working overnights. If need more availability please contact me. I have a fenced area at my apartment complex for dogs if needed. I have a variety of teats and toys for cats if needed.

About: I’ve cared for newborn puppies on multiple occasions, so I’m no stranger to tiny paws and big responsibility. I bring patience, love, and plenty of cuddles to every pet I care for. Caring for pets is part of my normal day-to-day life. I enjoy building my routine around their needs, whether that means morning walks, midday check-ins, or extra cuddle time. My own pets are cared for with a mix of routine, enrichment, and lots of love (okay… maybe a little spoiling). I stay attentive to their needs, moods, and habits, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I sit.

“Kaitlyn is so sweet and our babies loved her. This was our first time having her drop in and we will definitely be using her as much as her availability allows.”

About: We work from home full-time, which means your pup will get lots of supervision, attention, companionship, and cuddles throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. Dogs staying with us typically get up to two walks a day, usually 1–2.5 mile walks at nearby trails. If your pup enjoys walks and adventures, they’re welcome to join! We also make sure dogs have plenty of supervised playtime, enrichment, rest, and individualized attention depending on their personality and energy level. We genuinely love pets and try to make them feel like part of the family while they’re here. Whether your dog is playful, cuddly, shy, energetic, or prefers a calmer environment, we do our best to adapt to their needs and routine. We're also happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. We know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and we aim to create a safe, loving environment where both you and your pup feel comfortable. I have a flexible schedule to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I take my dog on walks twice a day for 1-2.5 miles in the park and typically spend the rest of the day at home, treating your babies like my own. I have a fenced yard and live walking distance from a park with wooded trails. I have a friendly pup in my home who loves having friends to play with. I will care for your pets like my own!

About: For over 15 years, I have been the go to person for pet care among friends, family, and neighbors and it is something I genuinely love doing. From quick drop ins to let a pup out for a bathroom break to full time care for two weeks while an owner was away, I have handled it all. I am trusted to feed, walk, play with, and comfort dogs of all sizes and personalities. What started as a favor has grown into something I take real pride in. Whether it is a laid back older dog or a playful puppy, I treat every pet like they are my own. I can’t wait to meet your dog or cat! I will be available most days and times. Please contact me to see if I am available and I will see if I can get your needs taken care of! I can keep your pet safe with any means necessary. Please tell me specifics about your animal’s habits and rules for him or her so I can appropriately accommodate.

“Ashley was awesome. I would definitely recommend her and book her again! She was super attentive and caring to our dog while we were away. She sent pics and took our dog for a walk everyday. Super kind and responsive. No issues at all. 😊”

About: I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats and horses, so animals have always been a part of my life! Besides helping out with our own animals, I worked at a dressage barn throughout high school and showed horses throughout college. I have also taken care of family and friend's dogs and cats for extended periods of time. Pets have influenced my entire life and I understand the importance of every pet's health, safety and happiness. Besides caring for my own cat, I do have a 8-5 job. Because of that, my schedule works best with weekend petsitting or after work check ins. Just check with me and I’d be happy to work with you to see what we can make happen! 🙂 I currently do not offer pet sitting services at my home, but I am excited for the opportunity to take care of pets at a client's home. I prefer to meet the pet and go over the pet's needs with an owner prior to the owner being gone, so that I'm aware of the pet's environment and how I can best take care of the pet while their owner is away.

“Allie did a great job taking care of my cat! She was great about communicating and keeping me informed. My cat warmed right up to her and I was very happy with his care!”

“This was our first booking with Jordan and it was great! She was prompt, professional, and kind. Our dog is slow to warm up to new people but Jordan was able to easily spend time with him and take him on a long walk with no problems. I highly recommend Jordan. In fact, we have two more services booked with her already!”

About: As far as cats go, I have experience bathing, brushing, and trimming nails. As well as bathing and brushing for dogs. I also have experience administering liquid and pill medicine for both cats and dogs. :) I am the parent of a lazy domestic short hair cat named Eddie. I’ve had him for about three years and before Mr. Eddie, I’ve helped in providing care for many cats and dogs of all different breeds for family and friends. I feed Eddie twice a day (morning and night) and refill his water fountain every morning. Litter is changed every other day. He has two cat towers and more toys than I can count. He enjoys playing with other cats and has no problem sharing his space. As for pets in others homes I follow routines exactly as instructed.
