About: I've had dogs since I was very little. Very comfortable with anything from small and anxious to big and jumpy. Currently have 2 cats at home, a very young senior and a old kitten. I am a full time graduate student with some intermittent periods of free time and am always looking to take a study break and go hang out with some pets. Im currently a Doctorate of Physical Therapy student at UVM. So whenever I'm not in class I'm free to spend it with your furry friend. Since I have cats, I always make sure my home is pet safe and there isn't anything around that could hurt them or get them sick.

About: I love animals and spending time with them. I have two older dogs of my own that require a lot of care. I also regularly work with humane society’s with their doggy day out program. I typically take a shelter dog once a week for the entire day, hoping they eventually get adopted. Many of them have found loving homes. I’m free whenever!!! I am around all summer and happy help someone in need when it comes to their pets. I have a very flexible schedule, available both weekdays and weekends. I have two adopted shelter dogs. They are 11 years old and sweet girls, Izzy and Lucy. I care for them daily with feedings, walks and playing in the yard.

About: My family has had dogs since I was 14. Out first dog was a German Shepard and second a German Shepard/Husky mix. Currently my Sheppard Husky mix resides in North Carolina staying with my mother as we were worried how he would do with a big move. I have always loved dogs and their companionship. It would be a privilege to take care of another’s fur baby. I currently have the sweetest little dachshound that I rescued in September of 2024 and we have been inseparable ever since, he is truly my child. I take my dog Beanie on longer walks about 2x a day and shorter ones through the day. I am mostly available on Fridays and weekends and after 5pm on Monday - Thursday My yard is not fenced in but there are many dog parks and safe places to play in my neighborhood. I love taking long walks and they are even better with a fiery companion.

About: I have grown up with the dogs of various breeds - Boxers, Jack Russell's, Irish Terrier, Shnauzers, Lasa's and Mini Labradoodle--my entire life and now into an empty nest stage. After raising 3 kids and many dogs(and chickens) in our own home, I know it's not easy to find time to do it all- let me take some of that stress away by helping out. Kids have mostly gone out of state and looking to spend some time with dogs. Hoping to spend some time walking playing with grown dogs or puppies as we currently do not have one of our own. Our dog passed after 14 wonderful years and I would love to be able to help out with day to day walks, ball throwing, or just a be there for some extra cuddle to fill that void- there is nothing like the love of a dog. I am currently working part-time and looking to fill my schedule with some furry friends. We lost our dog of 14 years and I would love to spend time with dogs more. I am available 8 to 4 most days Monday through Friday and look forward to some quality pet time. I could also do some weekends or longer, regular visits if scheduled ahead. I'm pretty flexible I have a large yard and wooded area behind our house, no neighbors close by, lots of room to run and play. If taking for walks, definitely would be on leash. Would also love to pick up and walk Philo with any dog who has the energy.

“We were exceptionally pleased with Molly’s care for our two pets. We have one cat who likes to be petted than one that doesn’t, and she paid great attention to the one who needs it. The cats litter boxes, the area surrounding them ,in the kitchen where the cat food was were immaculate when we came home. She sent pictures with each visit to let us know how things were.Would not hesitate use her again anytime she was available if I needed pet care”

About: My name is Amelia and I am in college studying animal sciences. I have experience with dogs walking, cat and fish care, and would love to help you and your pets out in any way I can! I’m currently a full time student, so I can pop in and out mid morning and in between classes throughout the week. I will make sure the animal gets a good chunk of my time and attention and will make sure not to rush them. It’s important the animal is safe and stimulated while I am with them. If I am dropping in to feed or take care of your pet I will ensure a clean environment and that they are enriched until a caretaker returns. If I am taking your pet on a walk I will cater to the dogs temperament and endurance. The pet’s experience (and their bathroom/food needs) is optimized.

“Ella was wonderful! Communicative, responsive and the pups were well cared for. I would definitely ask her again! She walked the dogs a few days for a last-minute trip. Super happy and satisfied! Thanks Ella!”

About: I have had a dog in my house since I was very young. I have experience with well-trained work dogs and rescued dogs with past trauma. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their dogs since I was 12. I am a student at UVM. My classes end most days before noon and I have a car for transportation. I would love to add dog walking into my weekly routine! I have a large back yard and a friendly dog ready to play with other dogs. Additionally, I live in a wonderful area for walks. (when at home)

About: I have been working with animals for the last ten years. Started working in dog daycares and moved my way up to vet medicine where i now am a vet technician. I am patient and understanding to all pets personalities and ages. I am currently working 3 days a week on a specialty service at a veterinary hospital. My weekends are typically free and I would love to fill the time with your furry loved ones. Will be very respectful of your home and make giving your sweet boy or girl my devoted attention. Back yard fence in play is great but leash walks are also great!

“Azariah was great with our two kitties! She spent extra time with our shy cat to help her get comfortable.”

About: I love pets. Ever since I was little, playing with my pets and taking care of them gave me a sense of importance. To help do so for members of my community would be a great way to reconnect with the simple pleasures of quality pet time. I currently work full-time 4 days a week. The other three days of the week I have incredible flexibility. On the days that I do work, I can flexible in the mornings until 12, 12:30 latest. I will be unable to have pets at my own home due to landlord requests. But, I have ample experience walking dogs and ensuring they are properly supervised. I also am incredibly active and a strong individual, callable of heavy lifting and can mitigate any dragging from a leash.
