Dog Walkers in Sharon, VT

About: I've been taking care of pets (cats, dogs, and rabbits) my entire life. One of my career highlights was working at the Philadelphia Zoo. Granted, I was working as a puppeteer, but I love being around animals every day. I currently have two beloved cats of my own, and I'm excited to meet your pets! I'm also a freelance puppeteer and writer - so when I'm between projects I have a very flexible schedule and will be happy to take care of your pets! I pride myself on being good with animals, love winning them over, and am a very empathic person. While I love a friendly creature, I'm also good at giving animals space if they're shy around new people, etc.

“Beatrice is great and super reliable! I had some issues with my schedule and she worked with me to make sure my dog gets walked. He loves her!”

About: I adore dogs! I’ve been dog-sitting for the past five years and have experience with all kinds of pups—energetic, shy, curious, cautious. I love to take dogs on long walks in nature and notice what they notice! Each dog is different, with different needs, and I make sure to make a plan with the owners so I know how best to care for their pet and make everyone feel safe and loved! In early July, I’ll be finishing up a yearlong fellowship but will be sticking around in the Upper Valley until September. Which means my schedule is extremely flexible! I’m able to take on recurring gigs or one-off dog sitting/walking needs. Unfortunately, my apartment doesn’t allow dogs, but I’m happy to stay at yours or take your pup for a very long walk! I find that there’s isn’t one routine that works with every dog. Each dog is different! I like to make a plan with the owner to go through their dog’s needs and get a better understanding of how to best care for their pet! :)

About: My adult daughter brought home a pup 4 years ago and I have been forever changed. I now get the unconditional love thing. I want to be around animals more than I do people!!! SO I am relatively new at it but very enthusiastic and want to help the owners. For the summer, I wanted a little more freedom in my life so I am choosing to try pet care for three days a week, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Currently, I am not available for weekends - although there might be an occasional weekend I might be available. I am happy to care for pets in your home and will adhere to all your guidelines! I would also love to care for your dog in my home, although it is rather small.

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. Looking to get my own, but in the meantime, would be excited to watch yours. I have plenty of toys and treats and I’m happy to do anything that makes you feel comfortable to keep your furry friend happy! I currently work at Dartmouth Hitchcock full-time which is why I typically can only watch during the weekend. My flexibility means I can also sometimes work remote. Depending on your preference, I’m sure we can work out something great. I am happy to do anything that makes you feel comfortable. I love to go for a walk, so I’m happy to take them down to the small park that we have. Or if they’re not much of a walker, I’m happy to sit and relax as long as they know how to pick a TV show.

“Bella helped me out last minute and gave me some peace of mind during a long work day. Great service!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all sizes and ages. I have pet sit for many friends and family as well as other people. I can walk dogs, feed pets, etc. I also own a dog and two cats myself so I understand putting your trust in someone to take care of your pets. I am home from college for the spring semester so I am looking to do some pet care until I go back next semester. I am able to walk dogs most week days and drop in visits pet a couple days a week except for weekends. I care for pets in the clients home. I can go over to the clients house to walk dogs, feed pets, and let pets out.

“Ellis was great, communicative and pleasant. I’d happily have him back to walk my dogs again.”

About: Hi! I’m Jill and am very experienced with doggos! I work full time in dog rescue and am looking to take on rover clients to help support that work. I have experience with all ages/sizes/breeds/temperaments! I am certified in Animal Behavior Management and love catering your pet’s activity and enrichment to their personality. Before working in dog rescue, I was a wildlife biologist for 10 years and still very much enjoy spending time outdoors and hiking - especially with dogs! Before that, I worked at a doggy day care and veterinary clinic. Animals have always been a central part of my life and I take the responsibility of their care very seriously! I work in animal rescue which allows me a somewhat flexible schedule. If I have a pet booking, your animal’s needs will be my first priority! I care for pets in the way they would like to be cared for. I love getting to know an animal and catering my services to them.

About: I work remotely for an international development organization based in DC. My schedule is flexible, leaving me plenty of time to spend outdoors with some new furry friends! I have always loved taking care of dogs and come from a large, dog-owning family. I have extensive experience dog walking and sitting both small and large breeds, from Cavalier King Charles Spaniels to Labs to Bernese Mountain Dogs! I currently own a 4 year old white shepherd named Storm who loves to walk and play with other dogs. I am open to taking our pups on walks together, on trail hikes, or to the dog park. Available for daily walks, drop in visits, and dog sitting. I look forward to meeting you! Also open to discussing boarding in our home, pending meet and greet with my dog Storm. I work remotely from home, so I am flexible when taking care of dogs. Happy to work with you on a recurring schedule, or for one-time walks/visits! I work remotely full-time from home and my schedule is flexible. I take my dog, Storm, out for short (less than 30 min) and longer walks (over 1 hour) 2-3 times a day. We also enjoy using nearby trails, as well as the trails on our property. I currently live in a farmhouse in Royalton. There is no fenced in area, but we have trails on our property for dogs to walk (on leash) or run (depending on your comfort and their recall).

About: I will make sure that your cats have food, water, clean litter boxes, and most importantly lots of love! My tortoiseshell girl, Hydrangea, is my princess! I will also make sure that your dogs are safe and supported, with lots of love, physical activity, and fun! Always making sure their food and bathroom needs are taken care of. Every pet is unique and I believe in the importance of recognizing and addressing each pet’s special personality and needs! I am a grad student at UAlbany, so I have flexibility and will take jobs that fit into my schedule! I am on winter break now so my availability will be open. I will make sure to follow all of your instructions when taking care of cats and dogs in your home! I know that every pet has different needs and will strive to provide the best care possible to meet those needs.

About: I love fur babies and have only been without one for about 5 years in my whole life. My Angel, a Chihuahua, became an angel for real a few years ago. We rescued a cat during the housing shortage. I am ready to care for your babies and give them the love they deserve. Their safety and health are my priority and your knowledge that they are being well cared for. I am retired and have plenty of time to keep them company, fed and exercised.it would a joy to care for them and take photos of them. I am comfortable walking dogs on a leash. I would check all fences and gate before letting them out in your fenced yard. I would make sure they did not slip out while entering and exiting your home.

“Samantha was wonderful with Edith and gave us great updates about their walks together. She was thorough and considerate and we will definitely rebook with her when we’re back in the area. Thank you very much, Samantha!”

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.

“Ronan is great! On time, easy going, Tito loves him and will allow last minute booking for dog walks.”
