Marissa was great! She was very reliable and great at communication before and during her time sitting for us. She clearly cares about the animals she watches and ours were instantly comfortable with her. We are so happy to know we can call on her to care for our pets when we're gone.

Taylor was a wonderful pet sitter! She was incredibly communicative before and during our time away and shared lots of daily updates. Our pets seemed immediately comfortable with her and she took great care of our space. We won't hesitate to book with Taylor again!

About: I've owned and taken care of dogs my entire life. I'm proud to be one of the first people friends and family call when a petsitter is needed. I love walking, and I love dogs. This seems like the perfect opportunity to exercise and get my animal fix! I'm currently working full-time Monday through Friday. I can do evening walks after 5:00 PM (as weather allows) and I can do weekends between 9:00 AM - 6 PM. My current apartment doesn't allow pets, but I can housesit on weekends or in the evenings if the location is somewhat close to my work in Waterbury. I'm a long-time vegetarian, and have always had an extra sensitive heart when it comes to animals. I think that earning an animal's trust is such a privilege and gift, and I honor that. I cannot house pets in my current apartment, but I will follow the guidance and knowledge of the owners in their homes and while on walks.

About: When I was growing up my family always had dogs and cats. I have two dogs of my own (I have a senior shepherd mix and a 1.5 year old lab mix) as well as a cat. I work with middle school students during the school year and would love to spend my summer taking care of animals. My dogs are my priority so I can’t commit to overnights but with my days free this summer I would love to do some dog walking, house sitting and cat sitting. I work full-time during the school year but I have the summers off with plenty of free time to spend cuddling with some cats. I’d love to do dog sitting as well but am not sure I can commit to overnights as I have my own two dogs at home who need me but I’m open for daily support such as walks or feeding during the owners’ work hours. My dogs use a long lead out back and aren’t left unsupervised for long. When my cat was alive he had his own separate space away from the dogs as well as easier access to food, water and litter as he was arthritic.

Above and beyond as usual! I have never felt truly at ease leaving my dog for a trip and KayMaria made it SO easy to do so. I cannot recommend her enough! (But not too much--she is only one he trusts so far!)

Danielle was absolutely amazing! We will continue to ask her to look after our pups for our future trips. She provided us with updates and didn’t mind at all that we had a lot of specific requests regarding the pups food etc. she took perfect care of them and kept them company so we didn’t have to worry at all about them while we were gone.

About: As a former medical coordinator in mental health, busy coffee shop manager, mother to two adult boys and companion of a 14 year old dog, I can promise you your pet and home will be in loving hands. I have taken care of multiple friends pets over the years including one dog that was blind and another who had diabetes. You can be assured your pet will be taken care of with love and patience. My pup will stay home with his older brother while I pet sit. I do work 40 hours a week at a coffee shop in Waterbury, VT. If local, I can adjust my schedule as needed but will need a couple days where I will be gone about 8 hours or so. Love going for long walks in the morning and afternoon. In addition to loving going for walks, I've been able to follow specific requests that are more personalized for the pet and the homeowner. Whether that be specific times for walks, medications or unusual feeding routines I've got you covered.

Ariel stayed two nights at my home with my dogs and I am so grateful to have found her. I’m an incredibly anxious dog mom and she is so compassionate and understanding of that and took such great care of my dogs and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. My dogs absolutely love her! I highly recommend her. She’s reliable and communicative and I’m looking forward to having her stay with them again soon!

My babies are everything to me. We hardly travel without them because we haven’t found anyone yet who can or is willing to care for them in a way that I’m content with. Enter Laura. Laura proves her trustworthiness by her excellent care and communication before booking. She is very competent regarding what I feel to be more complex pup situations. Added bonus, she is active and is able to give my high energy pups a good amount of exercise. My partner and I were able to have a fantastic time away without any worries. I am thrilled with Laura, and hope she is interested in working with us again!

About: I grew up on a farm around all kinds of animals, so caring for them has always been second nature to me. I’ve loved and cared for many dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I genuinely enjoy making animals feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have a flexible schedule as I am in between jobs right now and have plenty of availability for pet care, walks, check-ins, and overnight stays. I try to keep pets as comfortable and relaxed as possible by sticking closely to their normal routines. Whether I’m caring for pets in their home or mine, I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, play, affection, and a calm environment. I also understand how important communication is, so I like to keep owners updated with photos and check-ins while they’re away.

Lillian is such a great dog/house sitter that I’ve booked her 3 times, including stays that are over a week long. She’s communicative, I feel confident that my dog is being well cared for and getting lots if play time! She also always leaves the house neat at the end of her stay, which I appreciate after being away! I will continue to book Lillian for pet sitting needs.

Jose and Jen were great pet sitters. Jen was very loving and attentive to my 2 cats and dog. She checked in if she had a question and sent multiple pictures everyday. She left the house tidy upon her leave. I highly recommend her.
