Cat Sitting in Stannard

“Alison has been communicative, responsive and flexible to our needs. Most importantly she has been very attentive and capable to the opposite spectrum of an energetic young pup and an almost blind senior dog. We're spending the summer here from out of town and it is reassuring to know we can count on Alison when we want to go on a longer hike, explore, take guests around and those times when we can't take both dogs with us. We're happy to have found her.”

“We highly recommend Anne!! She really went the extra mile taking care of our sweet but slightly shy kitty Jelly. We got lots of updates and photos from their visits, and Anne spent some extra time with Jelly to give her the chance to warm up. By the end of their time together Jelly was really comfortable with Anne. You can tell she really cares about animals and did a great job for us! We look forward to having you take care of Jelly again in the future, Anne! Thank you for everything!”

About: I have feeding, walking, playing and poop cleaning experience. I have been around small and large, young and old dogs most of my life. I know all are different in their needs but they all need love and I can provide that. I have no other job so I have all the time needed for your pet. I'm available days, nights, weekends and emergency care available. I haven't had a pet not like me yet. I can follow any routine already set in place. I can give extra time and love to any animal. I will not take the care of your member of the family lightly.

“Julia was awesome to work with! Super responsive and understanding of my needyness. She even fixed my cat's toy which he had broken from playing too hard. Thanks Julia! I'll definitely be reaching out again in the future :)”

“Jordin did a great job with my cat! I love that she sent me photos each time she visited my house so I knew that my cat was being well taken care of.”

“Katt watched my two dogs and one ferret. She was wonderful. It was great to have a farent (farent parent) watch my little guy. Most people don't really know what they are doing with exotics. It was cool to hear she has experience with snakes too. I didn't need her for that, but my neighbor did so it was super handy. Very sweet girl.”

“Hayley was absolutely wonderful with our cats and even got the shy one to come out and say hi by the end of the week! I was always so happy to get updates and appreciated the detail included in each one.”

“This was the second time we’ve worked with Kim, and we were again impressed by her care and level of attention to detail. It was comforting to know Spruce was in good hands, and we wouldn’t hesitate to use Kim again.”

“Bella and Cameron are such diligent and responsible cat sitters! They sent very cute updates and photos while we were out of town, about all the activities they were doing with our cat. We will definitely be booking with them again!”

“Rose cared for our new kitty while we were away. Her communication and care were both excellent. We had not worries at all. We hope to have her watch our kitty again and give her the highest of recommendations.”

“I was really nervous about leaving my 18 year old cat with someone else but Ariel put me completely at ease. She was so kind and caring with my cat and completely comfortable administering medication and following special feeding instructions. She also sent me great pictures of my pet each day and was very communicative about how things were going. When I arrived home my cat was content and well cared for. I would highly recommend her for any pet care situation. Thank you Ariel”

About: I knew from an early age I wanted to work with animals. I started horseback riding lessons when I was ten and went on to working off my lessons by caring for the lesson horses. This led me to manage a boarding barn and earn my riding instructor license. When I moved to VT I worked at an animal shelter for dogs and cats. This inspired me to go back to college for a degree in Veterinary Technology. I worked as a Certified Vet Tech for 12 yrs. Now I would like to focus on working from home and helping pets be comfortable and safe when their people are away. I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time for walks and visits. I'm available on the weekends for boarding and a couple of days during the week. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs to keep your family member company. We have lots of land and trails to walk on. I have a large crate available if needed.

“I had friends over for President’s day weekend who brought their puppy (Archie) to play with my puppy (Gerard). We had made plans to ski the whole weekend but didn’t plan well enough on who will take care of our babies.  So we signed into Rover and checked our options.  After reading Giuliana’s profile we decided that she was the best choice for us.  We messaged her a bit later at night, but she responded immediately and agreed to come very early the next day.  She came a few minutes before our set time and was completely flexible when we tried to extend a bit of her stay because of traffic.  We came home to two very happy puppies who had been walked a couple of times, fed and played with the whole day.  I highly recommend Giuliana and will be using her again.”

“Maria was great dog sitting our new puppy! She was flexible and on time, and provided updates throughout. She clearly loves dogs and our puppy clearly had fun!”

“Super helpful despite a last minute change and chaotic situation!”

About: I have had dogs since I was 7 years old. At one point 1 owned 5 very well behaved and loved dogs. I own one today who is my best friend. I could be your part time pet care/walker. All animals need love and effection along with companionship with people friends and fur friends. Love dogs!!! My dog is very spoiled. We doing 3 to 4 times a week at Dog Mountain. Right now he goes to daycare 2x a week to socialize. Sleeps next to me and goes 95% if time with me.

“Ren was really great in helping take care of Bug! Thanks for sending updates and checking in on her :)”

About: I have been pet sitting for friends and neighbors since I was a child. I have had my own dog for 4 years and know how hard it can be to find reliable pet sitters in the area. Whether you are heading out on vacation or need someone to give your pet extra exercise, I'm happy to help! I have a nervous and reactive dog, so I am comfortable with gentle positive reinforcement and avoiding triggers. I can adapt care to make sure your pet is comfortable and not stressed. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I am very available mornings and evenings, and have some flexibility at lunch for short visits. My weekends are wide open and I'd love to take care of your pet! I will treat your home with the same respect and cleanliness that I hope house sitters would treat mine. I can follow whatever rules you normally have with your pet and will do everything to maintain their schedule and sense of normalcy.

“Gena is a literal angel and is always my first choice when I need any help with my pets. She is a quiet and calm person who not only easily connects with animals but finds joy in spending time with them. Last time she house sat for me she spent time trying to figure out what novelty tricks my dogs can do which they loved and she found hysterical. She is also incredibly tidy, every time she has house sat for me the house has honestly looked better when I got home. My pets and I are very grateful for Gena”

“Sophia dog sat for me in a last minute emergency trip - five dogs (several of them special needs, including medication regimens) plus a foster - six dogs! - she handled the job with aplomb and was reliable and very communicative!”
