14. James G.
About: I have been taking care of pets for years from dogs, cats, snakes, birds... even an alligator! As a nurse, I have natural caring instincts for people and pets alike. I work from home daily and therefore have plenty of time to play around with my fur buddies! When my wife come home from work we typically enjoy family evening strolls, couch cuddles, and lots of belly rubs! We have a small yard and plenty of areas nearby for walks/hikes. We are able to easily accommodate the living environment for individual pet needs. We also have 2 very friendly fur babies of our own!
15. Em K.
“Em truly has the biggest heart. She sent updates and pictures of my fur babies every day which comforted my heart. My dad recently died & I wanted to go be with my mom & she treated me & my fur babies as if we were special family to her. I even came home to a clean house, clean bedding & my fur babies had smiles. It is hard leaving your babies with a stranger but she became a friend whom I can trust & who cares with her whole heart.”
16. Cristina K.
“Cristina is everything you would ever want in a caregiver for your pet. Not only is she kind and loving but she has a tremendous amount of knowledge of dogs' behaviors and needs gleaned from her own study, from participation in classes taught by renowned trainers and from years of hands on experience with her own dogs. You can be 100% confident that she will be reliable and will go to great lengths to provide exceptional service.”

18. Lorien S.
About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a child from dogs and cats to horses and working on farms. I now have three dogs that I have raised and trained since puppies. They are now 5,7, and 12. I have an overwhelming love for all animals. I’m currently working at the Wheel Inn in Benson, VT. I work nights and weekends so I have extra free time during daytime hours in the week. My pets at home run free, but I do have a small area fenced in if need. When caring for others pets I will follow any guidelines they have for their pets.
19. Karly M.
“Karly loves animals and has a big heart! My dog is skittish around new people, but he took to Karly right away! I would definitely recommend Karly!”
20. Kasey B.
