House Sitting in Rutland

“I leave Regan with my highest recommendation! She took care of our many farm animals in addition to our house pets. She did an excellent job following all my directions and everyone is happy, healthy and clean upon our return. Regan communicated with me very well while we were away and sent pictures and updates and asked questions as needed. I am very grateful to have found such a wonderful pet/farm sitter.”

“Absolutely went above and beyond. Bought extra toys and treats for the pets. The dogs were all played out when we arrived. The house was way cleaner than how we left it. Couldn't recommend more”

“Jade was a perfect house/pet sitter. She watched my dog and two cats in a last minute request and was very helpful and nice. She was also great at communicating and I appreciated all the picture updates.”

“Kate was a wonderful dog and house sitter! Our two dogs were better off then when we left as Kate did some training with them. They took lots of walks and seemed very happy and healthy. The house was great as well.”

“Cindy is amazing!! She was so good to my Finn! She was attentive and took pictures and kept us informed about how he was doing. He was so comfortable with her! Thank you, Cindy for taking such great care of our Finn! We have never left him for that long and we were able to have a great time at the wedding we attended knowing Finn was in such great hands! Cindy is the best!!”

“Our two pups were happy, well fed, and calm while Julia cared for them over a long weekend. It was such a relief not to worry while we traveled. Instead we received periodic updates and photos of our two safe and slightly spoiled dogs. Thanks, Julia!”

“Amazing job. We felt so comfortable having Thomas watch our dog and cats while we were away. We had a very bad experience previously with another dog sitter, and he knew that, and really took the extra steps to make sure we knew our babies would be taken care of. He left the house clean and tidy, sent us lots of photos and updates, and was very communicative. Definitley will be using Thomas again everytime!”

Crystal S.

“We are so grateful for Shaylee! She stayed with our dog, Olive, and took such wonderful care of her. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Olive was not only safe and well cared for, but also loved. Shaylee was attentive, reliable, and went above and beyond to make sure Olive was happy and comfortable. We came home to a very content pup, and it was clear she had been in great hands. Shaylee is a true professional, and we are so thankful for her!”

“Morgan and Virginia did a great job pet sitting my cat and flock of chickens. Everyone looked happy and I appreciated the daily check ins and communication especially since this was my first time using Morgan’s services after a bad string of pet sitters. Would definitely recommend and use again!”

About: Over 16 years training, walking and exercising high energy dogs. I have extensive experience with working dogs, special needs dogs and have certifications in dog obedience and other disciplines. I am licensed as a public school teacher and fully background checked. Contact me for the best care. Boarding and adventure daycare is my speciality. I have limited housesitting and drop in availability. Dog walking and exercising is my full-time job. I want to provide a concierge service that makes it easiest for you to take your time back and be well. Your wellness is key to your dog being well. My joy for this profession started when I couldn't find a trusted sitter and dog walker for my own animal. I decided to provide that service to others so they wouldn't have the same problem. I give love, attention and exercise to your family member as if they were my own. I am a licensed public school educator who is fully background checked with glowing references that can be provided and contacted.

About: With experience as a kennel attendant, I have worked with hundreds of different dogs, and am comfortable walking the smallest toy breeds to giant breeds like mastiffs or Great Danes. I have worked with a variety of different personalities and am capable of caring for terminally ill, disabled, or special needs pets! I am currently a college student and mostly spend my time studying if not hanging out with my own pets. I’m available for drop-in visits Monday morning-afternoon, all day Tuesday, Wednesdays and Thursdays after 3, and Fridays until 2 at this time. I am also available Saturdays and Sundays after 4! I care for everyone’s pets as if they’re my own - following their owner’s schedule as closely as possible to ensure their comfort and keep them stress-free! I also like to send owners updates with photos to ease any anxiety about being away from your baby!

About: There isn't a time in my life when I have not been around dogs. I was a dog walker throughout college and now I am a dog owner myself. I am an active walker in my neighborhood who has experience with multiple breeds and sized dogs. I currently have a 2-year-old Aussie, and we would love to add your pup to the mix for however long you need! I can do weekends and holidays if I am available. There are some great trails for us to walk on around my neighborhood. Alfie (my pup) also plays with every dog that comes over! My schedule changes often so I will try my best to keep my calendar up to date. My house is puppy-proofed since I have a puppy myself. If you have any requests or concerns please just let me know ahead of time!

“Laura house sat for us for the first time and she was wonderful! Daisy seemed to be very content with her. Laura responded quickly to my texts and sent great photos of Daisy. We will definitely have her again and highly recommend her!”

“Kasey did a great job with my two weener dogs, Oscar and Lucy. When I got home, they were quite chill and happy which is noteworthy given they have separation anxiety. Kelsey is a great communicator and kept me posted on their wellbeing while I was out of town. I'd highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve had a dog in my household since I was about 8 years old so basic animal care is easy for me. I also currently have a 2 year old puppy and 4 yr old toddler pup as well as a 4yr old cat. My first dog in the family just passed last yr she was an old girl, but gave me new experiences with an older dog. My cousin has me watch her dog most times she’s out of town and other family members and friends have asked me as well. I always loved animals since I was 3 working with them in some way has always been a passion to me and I hope one day I can expand that. I’m currently working full time, but love to slip in some animal care when possible. My passion has been working with animals since I was three and this seems as a good start for my ladder. I do have a medium size puppy who loves dogs as well. So if your dog is pet friendly a play mate is always great for the amount of energy she has! I like to try and be strict when it comes to basic training with my puppy because I want him to have respect for other people and dogs. So if given certain commands I will help enforce your skills you’ve worked on with your animal. I use stay, sit, no jumping, lay down, leave it, and here with my dog so if you also do that’s normal commands for me.
