About: As a kid, I've always had a love for dogs and would watch my friend's dogs when out of town. My goal is to always give a dog all the attention and love they deserve, whether it's through long walks, drives, or spending some quality time cuddling. I have no problem with big or small dogs; they all deserve the same amount of love! I currently have 2 dogs (Charlie & Remi, 60lbs each), who are great with other dogs and humans. They would love to help provide some fun playtime to other furry friends! Together, we are always down for fun adventures outside, or a chill day at home :) I'm available for boarding and dog walks any day of the week! I'd love to spend some time this summer taking care of your dog and making sure that they have fun :) I have a fenced yard and 2 very sweet, friendly dogs who would love to have a new friend to play and hang out with! Because of the fenced yard, the dogs can take as many potty breaks as needed (or even extra outdoor playtime!). Dogs need to be able to go up and down a small set of stairs to get into the house. For dog walks, I can either take them with one of my dogs or give your pet a personalized one-on-one walk so they can make the most out of their experience.

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.

About: Hey! Im Skye! I’m a senior at the university of Vermont studying political science and history. I’ve had pets from gerbils to horses my entire life and have cared for pets with special needs, disabilities, and aggression. I would love to spend some quality time with your pup or kitty whether it be snuggling all day or going for a hike! My number one priority is your pet’s safety and well being. —— Open to boarding smaller or low energy dogs, must be okay with cat in house. My schedule varies, but I work from home most of the time. If im watching your pup it will be a day I work from home so I can give them attention throughout the day. If watching a pet in your home, I follow the provided instructions, while ensuring to keep everything clean and tidy. If boarding in my home, your pet is welcome to the entire apartment, when supervised, and will mostly hang out in the living room or my room. Pets are allowed on couches and beds.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I absolutely love caring for animals. I have two dogs at home who I miss very much, so I have plenty of extra love, attention, and energy to give to your pets. I also have a very sassy orange cat with a big personality, so I’m used to both playful dogs and independent cats. I’ll treat your pet with the same care, patience, and affection that I give my own. As a student-athlete, I’m active, dependable, and happy to help with walks, playtime, and keeping pets on their usual routine. I'm currently working part time from home, so I have plenty of time to check in on your pets! I'm available flexibly on weekdays and weekends. I’m currently unable to care for pets in my own home, but I’m very comfortable caring for them in their own space, where they can stay relaxed and on their usual routine. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter boxes, cleaning up accidents, and any other basic care needs. I know how important it is to trust someone in your home, so I’ll be respectful of your space and follow your instructions closely. I’ll also make sure doors, gates, leashes, and food/medication routines are handled carefully so your pet stays safe and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I work remotely for my full-time job, which allows me to be a reliable option for midday dog walks and in-home pet sitting. If you work in person or are traveling, I can be present during the day and in the evenings to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I grew up with a cockapoo and still care for him when my parents are traveling, especially now that he’s a older with a medical condition. That experience has made me attentive, patient, and very respectful of detailed care instructions. I also help care for and walk my brother’s large, high-energy young rescue dog, which has given me experience with exercise needs, structure, and understanding sensitivities that some rescue dogs may have. I’ve house sat for both dogs and cats and genuinely understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home. My lifestyle is calm and quiet, which works well for animals who thrive on consistency and steady care. My goal is always to give you peace of mind while giving your pet the attention and care they’re used to receiving. Because I work fully remote, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I can step away for quick check-ins or potty breaks, and I have a full lunch break for longer dog walks to help keep energy levels in check. I’m also happy to provide steady companionship for cats, including those who enjoy sitting nearby, or even on your lap, while I work. My flexible schedule makes me a great fit for house sitting any day of the week. I can stay in during the day and evenings, keeping your pet’s routine consistent. With a quiet personal life, I genuinely enjoy making pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I prioritize safety in every aspect of pet care. While I don’t provide care at my own home, I focus on following your instructions closely, so I fully understand your pet’s needs, preferences, and routines. This helps me keep them safe and comfortable during walks, playtime, or while staying in your home. By paying careful attention to cues and routines, I can ensure your pet feels secure and well cared for at all times.

About: My family has had pets for years-first a bunny, now cats, and we fostered a dog a few years ago. I’ve spent the last few years house/pet sitting in my hometown, and I’m now bringing my skills to Burlington. I’ve cared for many animals before, from rambunctious puppies to a senior dog with arthritis in its final year of life. I love spending time outdoors and love my time even more when I get to share it with a furry friend! I’m a full time student at UVM with lots of free time I’d love to spend with your pet. I’m free all day Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and have occasional weekend availability. I’m also available for house sitting jobs! I try to care for pets exactly as their owner would. I like to meet the pet with the owner the first time, so they can meet me with a “trusted adult” as it helps build rapport with the animals. I meet them and their needs wherever they’re at: whether they’re excited and want to play or simply lay around all day, I’m happy to join in.

About: I’ve been taking care of various animals since I turned 13. I’ve been trusted to walk multiple dogs at one time, care for senior cats and administer medicine to special needs animals. I have a big love for all animals and make sure to give every pet the love they deserve. I’m heading into my junior year at the University of Vermont studying wildlife/fisheries biology and animal science. I’m living downtown but I have a car and am excited to give some love to your pets!! Im working part time and am very flexible when it comes to providing love to your furry friends! I’d be more than happy to do drop ins, overnights or daily/weekly dog walks! As always, it depends on the pets individual needs but Im a very active person who enjoys taking dogs for long walks and runs and accommodating their needs! I have a car so can travel to your dog and also drive them to fun new places (rail trails and hikes).

About: I have grown up with dogs, ranging from a teacup yorkie to a bullmastiff lab. I recently adopted a mix terrier of my own who has become by best friend. I have been trusted by friends and family to care for their pets like I do my own and have been doing so much more recently! I am a recent college grad on the job hunt but in the mean time would love spending time and caring for your four legged friends! I care for you pets of course as you ask and care for them and with a lot of love. I respect the guidelines you set for your furry friends and will do my best to make them feel secure as it can be nerve racking for them to not have their people around!

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.

Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I exclusively provide care in clients' homes to help pets stay in their familiar environment. Whether it’s walks, feedings, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I follow your pet’s schedule and preferences closely.I always take time to learn each animal’s needs, from medications to favorite toys or hiding spots. I can also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and loved while you're away.Your home is treated with the same respect and care I’d give my own—clean, secure, and just how you left it.

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.

Casey did a wonderful job walking our dog Jax while I was away on a five-day business trip. Her help was a huge support to my wife while I was gone, and we really appreciated having someone so dependable caring for Jax each day. It quickly became clear how much Jax liked and trusted Casey. He figured out when she would arrive and would sit by the window looking out expectantly for her each day. Casey was great to work with from start to finish. She came to our house beforehand for a meet-and-greet with Jax, and she provided thoughtful updates after every walk. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Jax was so happy and well cared for. We would gladly work with Casey again and highly recommend her.

Gabrielle is kind, reliable, communicative and clearly has a natural way with dogs. My dog felt comfortable with her right away, which says something because he can be wary of new people. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. Gabrielle went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. At the end, my dog wanted to stay with her…the ultimate endorsement!

Haley met our dog when she was just 4 months old, the day after we rescued her! As a couple who works some long days, we really needed someone who could fit into a weekly routine with our schedule to help us potty train our new puppy. We absolutely attribute the success of house training our dog to Haley’s consistency and reliability. It is clear how much Haley has cared for and loved our dog as she even provided a reference for someone she trusts to take over her care when she leaves! We are sad Haley will be leaving our area and so incredibly grateful for the love, kindness and support she has shown our baby!
