“Lika and alister are the great sitter. She responded imminently whenever I ask. My baby looks so happy with them. Mine is an active puppy and they did really good taking care of him. They took him walks more than I even asked for. They even played several time throughout the day. I received lots of videos and photos and by seeing them, I definitely believe that they are a good sitter. Thank you for taking care of my baby like your own. You will be my no 1 contact whenever I need a sitter. I really love your service.”


“Samantha is wonderful!!! We are here for the summer and had to board our lab for a week. He was experiencing some allergies and Sam was more than happy to help! She provided updates, photos and videos of him throughout the week! We were able to add a day to our itinerary mid stay. Sam is very flexible! The location is exactly what we hoped for! Lots of space and outdoor time. Sam does daily walks. She offered to keep Riggs with the timid crew since he is a bit shy. Sam knows and love dogs! We are incredibly thankful for her!”


“Barbara and Darryll took phenomenal care of Hank while we were at a wedding. They asked detailed questions about his needs and schedule, took him out for long walks, and sent us lots of photos. I only wish we lived nearby so we could send Hank to them all the time!”


“Christina and Jason were great with my girls. I received pictures of them daily along with descriptions of their daily activities. They kept my girls busy and happy. I would highly recommend them.”

Shannon was instantly reassuring that our dog was in good hands, she kept us updated with photos and videos throughout the visit. Would recommend Shannon to anyone looking for pet care!”



“Gwynn was amazing, ad Ursa had a wonderful time. We enjoyed the daily picture and video updates, and it was clear Ursa enjoyed being in such a beautiful, safe, and loving environment. We would recommend Gwynn and her lovely property to anyone seeking a caring provider. Thank you!”

Thank you for taking great care of them.”

About: I've always been around animals growing up. I've cared for all different kinds of livestock, cats, dogs, and small animals like bunnies and reptiles (no snakes or spiders though yet). And I love every minute of it. I have over 10 years of professional pet caring experience. I've house/pet sat for family members before. And local people in my town. I've also worked and still work in horse boarding barns, small family owned barns, and a local large animal sanctuary. I've even volunteered at my local animal hospital multiple times. I'm always willing to bend to the clients personal request when it comes to caring for their fur babies and homes. Right now I'm still in school until June 8th 2025. I have 3 jobs. One is seasonal and 2 are year around. So my schedule has a lot going on. Luckily my jobs are pretty flexible making things like house/pet sitting doable. I'm a very patient person. So when it comes to dealing with pets and tasks I take things one step at a time. My pets are well loved and know it. I have never gotten a complaint from any past or present client. I am more then willing to communicate different needs and come up with a plan to make your pets and you getting to know me a good and relieving experience. I'm also more then happy to give regular updates and send lots of pictures.

“Lahana was fantastic, very easy to communicate with and I felt she truly heard and took to heart my cat’s needs! She Was incredibly friendly and was flexible with drop off and pickup for boarding! Her doggies were super friendly and well managed for the brief interaction I had with them! She helped out big time and was affordable for what I needed! She updated me with pictures throughout Wally’s stay without me even having to ask! Thanks so much Lahana! Looking forward to reaching back out in the future when traveling in the area again!”


About: I am a very experienced pet owner in Montpelier - I have owned and loved alpacas, dogs, goats, cats, and backyard birds of all kinds. I have also done foster care of kittens and cats for CVHS. I'm available to provide a fun and loving spot to board your dogs. They will get attention, care, walks, and playtime with my 3 dogs. I have a crate if needed, can be one level if mobility is an issue, am willing to administer meds and have no problem with puppies or senior pets. I am home all afternoon and evening and weekends and dogs get a lunchtime walk as well. I am available for boarding all of the time, but only showed weekends because that’s when I am home all day and evening. During the week dogs would still get a morning and lunchtime walk and care all afternoon and evening. I will send updates and photos throughout your dogs time with us - I am also available to pick up and drop off dogs for an additional fee. I work in Montpelier until 3:00 pm so pets get exercise in the afternoons and weekends, and dogs get a lunchtime walk as well. I am around all of the time on weekends and school breaks and all summer. Our house has many dog beds, crates, toys and treats. We live on many acres and dogs can be on or off leash, depending on needs. I also take dogs to local trails to walk and socialize.

About: Hi there, my name is Logan. I am 28 years old, originally from Morrisville, Vermont. Ever since I was a child, I have had endless love for animals of every kind. I feel deeply connected to them- they truly are man’s best friend. I am very genuine, honest, and reliable. I will always be respectful of your time, belongings, and of course, furry friend(s). Whether your companion needs a few potty break, a walk, or an overnight stay, please rest assured they are in good hands. If my services interest you, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting you and your best pal! Currently, I am in between jobs, so I have plenty of free time during the full 7 day week to accommodate whatever needs you may have. My household consists of my 7 month old son, our amazingly gentle and friendly 4 year old American Bully, Chuck, and our 8 year old fat, lazy cat, Clyde.

Melissa P.
“I have known Melissa for many years, first as my daughter's amazing 4th grade teacher and next as a fellow dog-owner and dog walking partner. Melissa always shows the utmost care for her dogs when walking, assuring that the course is accessible, that the dogs have appropriate tools for the weather (vests for the cold, etc.), and that their needs for safety and water are always met. Melissa is also simply a dog lover, which shows through her friendly interactions with all dogs we encounter on our walks. Melissa would be a great carer for your pet.”
