Molly was conscientious and very communicative. She followed our instructions for administering medication to our elderly dog Ben. Molly sent us photos of Ben while we were away. She left the house neat and clean.

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!!!

What we most loved about Hailey was how quickly our animals took to her — our dogs were leaning against her within minutes, and even the cats who hide came out and let her pet them the very first night! It was comforting to leave our pets in the care of someone who clearly loves and understands animals. And though we ended up rushed and didn't have as much time as I wanted to orient her, she perfectly remembered and followed all instructions. We've already booked her again.

Sala was great with our puppy! She walked and played with him and left our apartment so clean and nice. It was great knowing that our little guy was in such great hands and it was so nice coming home to toys put away, dog treats refilled, and clean lick mats and dog bowls.

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets of all kinds since a young age. I have the ability to take care of multiple pets at once, including my three dogs Oliver, Cullen, and Suga. My priority is to make sure every dog I sit is shown proper care, love, and happiness. I have a very open schedule this summer. I do like to have some of my weekends to myself so I am unable to spend nights on weekends. I have open availability and am excited to meet some furry friends! 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.

Hans did a fantastic job taking care of my elderly Shih tzu, needing two different eye drops twice a day. He also tried to make tempting meals for her when her appetite was low. He sent me great pictures almost every day which set my mind at ease. I could not recommend anyone more highly than Hans.

About: I have grown up taking care of a pack of 8 dogs all very high energy. I also have a Brittany (high energy/Anxiety) back home, who I love dearly! I have dog/cat sat since my freshman year of high school and it’s something I love to do! I am currently a college student, So weekends and Tuesdays are the main days I can do. I am a early riser in the morning both on weekdays and weekends! Making sure to not allow the dog/cat to do anything the owner doesn’t allow. As well as making the animal feel comfortable with me in their environment space. Your animal should return to you happy and exhausted

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!

Underhill, VT, 05489

About: Growing up in rural Vermont, my household was equal parts animals and humans. From an early age, I learned the care and attention that goes into caring for pets from the time they are an energetic puppy to well into their silver years. I’m well equipped to handle potting training, medication feeding, and leash pulling. Fun fact! My first job was as a neighborhood dog walker and my catch phrase was “Lydia B walking” because my last name starts with a B! I'm currently a student and I'm most available during the mornings on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Depending on the distance and public transit accessibility, I could be more available! When it comes to caring for other people’s pets, I treat every pet like they’re my own. Which means making sure they are happy, healthy, and safe even after walk time is over. I understand and fully respect that your pet is part of your home and as such, I will follow every aspect of your (and their) routine. In your home, I will make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure, and I always leave things just the way I found them (or better!). I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality, and I’ll keep you in the loop with plenty of updates, pics, and funny moments along the way. You can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands—and probably having a blast.

Heather Rae was absolutely fantastic! My friend who normally watches my dogs was out of town, and I had never left them with anyone else - naturally I was a bit nervous, and two weeks is a long time. But Heather right away made me feel like my two pups were in good hands, and that was affirmed when one of them needed an unexpected late night vet visit to manage his ongoing illness. She immediately noticed he was off and let me know, and didn't hesitate to drive him to the emergency vet when asked. I am super grateful for her attentiveness and care, and on top of that my house and plants frankly look better than when I left them! 11/10.
