“Hailey did us a huge favor and did a last minute sit for a few nights. She had great communication, send picture updates, and left the house in great condition. Thanks again Hailey!”
About: I’ve taken care of various breeds of dogs for the past five years. Willing to watch multiple dogs and able to provide walking services. I’m a physical education teacher. Looking to provide pet care services in the summer and on the weekends. As well as after work if needed. I am always attentive to the needs of all pets and willing to learn about what works for my clients. Pet safety is my first priority
“Jessica was amazing! She came early when we had an emergency and took such great care of our animals. She communicated well with us and even handled one of our dogs being sick. Couldn’t recommend her more! We will absolutely use her again and again.”
“Avery is an excellent pet sitter! She took care of our dog and cat while we were out of town for nearly 2 weeks. Her communication was great while we were gone. Pets well taken for and had all the snuggles they could want. She clearly loves animals and that made it easier for us to leave our pets in her care. She is professional and we will certainly hire her again in the future. Thank you Avery!!!”
“Paige took great care of our little cat! She sent us daily updates and pictures. She even left us a sweet drawing of him! Our house was also well taken care of and our Christmas tree watered. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Anna was fantastic with our dog and house. She was communicative, kind, funny, and she immediately recognized the things about our pup that makes her special. When we got home from our trip, everything was clean and organized, and the pets were as happy as can be. Even our cranky 18-year-old cat chose to spend lots of time snuggling Anna, so that's a pretty big endorsement!”
“Molly was a joy to meet, we were both instantly aware she was a great fit to pet sit our 4 fur babies - 2 cats 2 dogs - she's sweet, kind, warm, with a gentle spirit and my pets were immediately attached to her - my Corgi didn't leave her side the entirety of the meet and greet(s). She has amazing attention to detail and appreciated my very long and extensive 'note' of instructions! She never hesitated to take care of everything for the entire stay, and if she had a question she reached out. My home was exactly how it was left when we returned from our vacation, and my pets very happy and content. Also she's wonderful at sending pictures of my fur babies throughout the visit. I would definitely recommend Molly as a pet / house sitter!!”
“I’m very happy to have arranged for Will to dog/house sit. He was clearly very attentive to Ruby and Mika during my 36 hour get away, and did his best to help them feel comfortable in his presence. He listened well to details for their care and provided me with updates and photos over the course of his time with the dogs. He left the house in great shape. I highly recommend Will if you need a dog sitter.”
“Hannah and Naomi were wonderful! I would use them again and recommend to anyone! They are very thorough and responsive. I felt very comfortable having them in our house, dog sitting for a weekend. I appreciated knowing our dog was being cared for in his own environment! Thank you Hannah & Naomi!”
“Kassandra went above and beyond for us and our pups!! Our flight coming back home was cancelled and Kassandra was awesome enough to stay another night with less than 24 hours notice. Upon getting home, we could tell the animals were all well taken care of and they were very happy. Our home was in spectacular order and it was clear she was very respectful of our space. Kassandra’s response time was quick and she sent plenty of pictures! We truly can’t thank Kassandra enough for helping us out in a pinch and taking the best care of our animals and home. We would highly highly recommend”
“I am so grateful for the care provided for our cats! It felt clear that she understood how to meet and make each cat comfortable! I believe our cats felt supported and safe because August did everything to keep the cats routines. We feel so grateful and will book again!”
“She was absolutely wonderful with our slightly difficult dog and our cat loved her as well . We felt at ease on our trip knowing that our pets and home were well taken care of. I highly recommend and we will definitely be using Elaina again for any future house pet/ house sitting.”
“Hayley was great with our dogs1 She gave them so much attention and played ball with our Stella all the time. She provides regular updates and photos so you know your pets are being well taken care of.”
About: I grew up on a farm around all kinds of animals, so caring for them has always been second nature to me. I’ve loved and cared for many dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I genuinely enjoy making animals feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have a flexible schedule as I am in between jobs right now and have plenty of availability for pet care, walks, check-ins, and overnight stays. I try to keep pets as comfortable and relaxed as possible by sticking closely to their normal routines. Whether I’m caring for pets in their home or mine, I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, play, affection, and a calm environment. I also understand how important communication is, so I like to keep owners updated with photos and check-ins while they’re away.
“Zander was amazing with our two pugs. He was kind, positive, and flexible with our schedule. Daily pictures were reassuring that everything was going well. The pugs loved their daily walks and snuggles. I could tell they were very happy with Zander.”
“Chelsea has a special dog energy! My dog is very human nervous but as soon as he met her he was begging for booty scratches and wagging his tail. Will 10000% make the drive from Burlington to St Albans for Chelsea’s care whenever we’re away. We also had a medical emergency and she treated Elvis like her own and drove him all the way out to Burlington Vet Emergency Services without me asking. 10/10 recommend”
About: I believe dogs and cats are little angels who heal the world, and they all deserve the very best care. I’ve been a lifelong animal lover, with experience raising my own pup as well as caring for friends’ dogs—from playful puppies to sweet seniors who sometimes need medication and extra patience. I’ve self-studied topics like positive reinforcement, crate and potty training, puppy socialization etc. I’m home full time and my wife is working from home half of the week, so your furry baby will get lots of attention, companionship, and love. If your pup loves the outdoors, we’ll play in our big fenced yard. If they’re more of a homebody, I’ll happily keep them cozy indoors. And yes—dogs are always welcome on the bed if they’d like to snuggle! Our dog Mocha (18lb poodle and just turned 9) is very friendly with small dogs. He especially enjoys poodle mixes, terriers and some long-hair breeds (funny!) and normally he’s not a fan of large dogs. A meet & greet is always the best way to make sure everyone feels comfortable. We also have a gentle and calm cat who grew up around dogs—he does well as long as visiting pups don’t chase or bark at him.
About: Hello!! I have two furry babies of my own ( a lab and husky) and they both have unlimited energy! My husband and I are a very active couple. We have a large fenced in yard at our home! I love watching a variety of dogs ( small to large) and both of my dogs love to play with other dogs! For the dogs I have watched, I send daily photos and updates as needed. You’re dog would get the utmost attention here( nightly cuddles and daily activities) to reduce stress while traveling! If you have any questions or concerns you are welcome to ask! I make my own schedule and my husband works from home! He is always home to care for the needs of our dogs and yours! I always take the dogs out and for a walk in the morning and then feed them. My husband will take them out intermittently throughout the day as needed. Typically when I come home we will go for another walk

Paige was absolutely amazing! She house sat and watched our two cats and dog for 4 days and we couldn’t be happier. She sent us updates and pictures multiple times a day and was always very quick to respond. It was such a relief knowing our animals were in such great hands. We’d definitely book with her again!
Kasey is absolutely wonderful! She was proactive about communication, sent us updates and photos without us asking, left our house immaculate, and most importantly, took amazing care of our two very active goldens while we were out of town. Thank you, Kasey—we are so grateful for you!
Hayley was excellent in every way. She was reliable, communicative, organized, and quickly earned our trust. Our dogs took to her right away. She sent photo updates regularly, and we returned home to happy dogs and a clean house. We would definitely engage Hayley to care for our dogs again.
Kelly was absolutely WONDERFUL with my dog Rishi. He tends to be a bit anxious sometimes in new settings/with new people but this was not an issue whatsoever. After realizing there was a mistake made either on my end or the boarding facility's end, and them not being able to fit him in, I hopped on Rover as my last hope in still going on my thanksgiving climbing trip. This was literally the day I was supposed to drop Rishi off at the kennel. She came over and did a meet and greet, and he immediately adored her. She stayed with him for a few nights and then helped organize getting him to the kennel for me. Thank you Kelly for not only helping to save my trip, but also for treating Rishi so well and loving. Kelly is so caring, and sent so many adorable updates and photos :) And she left the house in wonderful condition as well. I cannot thank her enough and would highly recommend her. Can't wait to have here come housesit and hang out with Rishi again!
Chelsea watch our dog Lucy while we were out of town for a wedding. We are so happy with the care and love she provided to her. She sent photos and updates and treated her with such kindness and love. Lucy isn’t always comfortable with strangers, but she fell in love with Chelsea immediately, and so did we. She followed all the directions and care instructions. I won’t hesitate for a minute to have her come again.
I am so grateful for the care provided for our cats! It felt clear that she understood how to meet and make each cat comfortable! I believe our cats felt supported and safe because August did everything to keep the cats routines. We feel so grateful and will book again!
