Pet Sitting in Salisbury

About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting and had my own dog for many years. Now, I have experience from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays, with many different types of needs. I’m dedicated to caring for a pet the same way their owner would and look forward to spending time with animals. I work from home most days and can accommodate a flexible potty schedule and activity level. I enjoy taking breaks to spend with pets, to get outside or tuck in on the sofa! I have an enclosed garden and large, unfenced yard. We are well back from the main road so pets are welcome to explore the neighborhood.

About: I have many years of experience with animals . Growing up , we always had cats & dogs. Since I've been an adult, I've had many people who rely on me time & time again to watch their pets & homes. I'm looking to add new clients. I'd love to watch your fur babies in your home. I can do day, night or week, drop ins and walks. Whatever, you need I'm sure we can come to an agreement! Let's chat! I currently work full time in Middlebury Monday - Friday 7:30 -3:15. I am available around those times. Overnights, weekends and some holidays if needed. I unfortunately can't do lunchtime drop ins. However, I could drop in after or before work. School will be out soon I'll have more availability. I currently can't have pets in my home. I'd love to take care of your pets in their own home if you're okay with that. I do work so I'd be gone for part of the day but will make sure I'm there right after work. I work at a school so I have all summer available. Extra love for your furbabies .

“Joyce did such a great job watching our cats! She did drop in visits and send so many amazing videos and pictures. We felt so comfortable knowing they were safe and take of:)”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, but in the past year have expanded my experience to include all sorts of animals, from goats to geckos to rabbits to a snail. I’m a daycare teacher by day and am looking to fill my evenings and weekends with quality animal time! I’m available for late afternoon/evening walks, weekend visits, and house sits depending on timing and location. Available after 4:30 most weekdays and on weekends! I work during the day, but may be able to handle morning visits depending on your location. Let me know what your need is and I’ll see what I can do! I live in a small apartment with my cat, so I’d prefer to care for your animal at your home. I love doing overnight housesits when I’m available! I feel this is the most comfortable option for your pet to feel safe around a new person.

“Lorrie took excellent care of our fur babies while we were away. And was very communicative and thorough, and sent lots of pictures. Thank you Lorrie, we hope you are available next time we leave town!”

About: I've taken care of animals of all kinds since I was very young. I currently own dogs, cats, a guinea pig, and chickens, and if there are others that need attention, I'm happy to drop in with detailed instructions. I'm a mom and elementary school nurse. I am relatively flexible, mostly on weekends, but happy to work out the details for when you need someone to be with your babies. At this time, my services will be mainly checking in and providing care and attention to pets in your home. I am thorough and conscientious.

About: My name is Melissa and I have taken care of animals since my first dog in second grade. I previously had a Labrador and Shih-Tzu who both lived until old age. I also fostered older dogs who could not find homes due to their age. I currently have a one year old yellow lab mix. He’s dog and cat friendly. In order to board your dog, your dog must be dog friendly. I also require a meet and greet to ensure it’s a good fit. I offer boarding in my home. I live in a second story apartment in an old building with a large yard. There is a picture of my apartment located within my pictures. I only board one animal at a time as it's a one bedroom apartment. It allows me to spend quality time with your pet! For boarding I do provide food dishes and toys, but many animals prefer to have some of their own. I also have a medium sized dog crate if required and requested. I have open availability on weekends, however I work from home on weekdays and there may be times I need to be out of my home for up to three hours. I have a camera in my home and will be able to remotely check on your pet if I need to be away for work. I will always inform you prior to the booking if I have appointments out of the home. I am experienced feeding animals in a variety of ways and will follow your instructions on feeding and walking. I ensure animals are well cared for, played with, and that they receive the attention and care needed.

About: I’ve been an animal lover and caretaker my whole life. I have novice vet tech experience and I’m not afraid of the feisty ones, either! I’m working full time but my shift currently runs from 5pm to 1am Tues-Sat, so I am available for walks, play sessions, and pet/house sitting as needed around those hours. Working hours subject to change every few weeks. I like to have fun with my furry friends. I’m not afraid to get down and dirty, or even rough when the zoomies come out.

“Chase was excellent with my dogs”

About: I am the proud dog mom of my sweet Blue Heeler Summit! He is 7 years old so I have plenty of experience taking care of him. I have pet sat multiple times for my friends dogs and cats and love spending time with animals! I am patient, loving and detail oriented. Whatever your needs for your fur babies, I will be happy to accommodate! I work 4 days a week and have availability early morning and evenings on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Friday. I have all day availability on Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. I will be happy to take your pets on walks and play outside. Giving them lots of attention and love will be my goal in hopes the time you are away will go fast for them! I will be sure to always keep them on leash and safe throughout their time with me.

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 experience with cows, horses, dogs, cats, pigs, Guinea pigs, fish, chickens etc from basic feeding and cleaning to much more depending on needs I am currently working part time, and am self employed. I am willing to discuss flexibility to accommodate needs of clients, homes and their pets! I adapt to the needs of my clients and the surrounding. I do like to set up an initial meet so I can ask questions and get familiar to the space, duties and animals.

“Excellent! Reliable and personal attention to cars and humans.”

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.

About: My family had a couple cats growing up and I've cat sat / cared for cats over the years for neighbors. My fiancé and I both hope to get a cat or dog in the near future so any experience and exposure to caring for an animal would be really helpful. I’ve been around dogs plenty but not specifically cared for them other than through association with friends. Love every moment. I am very flexible right now and have availability during the week Monday to Thursday at this time and will update as my schedule evolves. I hope to offer the utmost trust and reliability to my clients while creating a safe, caring and fun environment for their beloved pets. I enjoy hiking and long walks, so would definitely love an exercise buddy to help me achieve my step goals.

About: I’m a fur mama of one 85lb , 3 year old mush who is hyper, energetic , and very needy. I love taking him on walks, to the beach, and anywhere he can go to get his energy out. My fiancé and I are planning our dream wedding and I would love to offer pet care in your house ( or mine if your dog or dog friendly) . I would love to give someone the opportunity to go on vacation without the Warriors of their pet being lonely or not getting the attention they deserve. I’m well experienced in dogs of all breeds and sizes and emotional/ physical needs. I am a teacher Monday- Friday but have weekends and summers off. I can be there before and after school, as well. Weekends I am free. I want to offer your pet lots of love, care and engagement while you are traveling. I try to keep them on their normally scheduled routine and work with the pet parent to make sure they are comfortable or have any special requests.

“Cristina was awesome! Always on time and communicative. It gave us real peace of mind that our kitties were well taken care of while we were away.”
