House Sitting The Seventh At Sonterra-The Vineyard

“Lauren was great! We felt comfortable and at ease having her stay in our home with Molly and Bear. She sent us pictures and videos of them running and playing in the back yard. We look forward to calling on her the next time we take a trip.”

“Cole was dependable, wonderful, consistent, and communicative throughout our 10 day vacation. We will certainly be re-booking when the time comes. Highly recommend!!!”

“We recently had the pleasure of having Sam watch our two dogs for nearly an entire week, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the care and attention he provided. Sam went above and beyond, even rearranging his work schedule to make sure our dogs were well looked after. He maintained their regimented routine, preparing their unique meals twice a day and taking them out for potty breaks and exercise an additional 3-4 times per day. His conscientiousness really showed in everything he did. Sam stayed overnight in our home, ensuring our dogs felt safe, secure, and comfortable in our absence. His communication was excellent—he sent us multiple photo updates throughout each day, which gave us such peace of mind. It was clear from the photos (and when we returned!) that our dogs were happy, calm, and well cared for. Honestly, I don’t think they even realized we were gone! Sam is incredible with animals, and it’s obvious he has a natural connection with dogs. He’s also friendly, respectful, and trustworthy. Knowing he was there allowed us to enjoy a much-needed vacation without any worry. We’re already planning to book Sam again for our next trip! If you’re looking for someone dependable, kind, and dedicated to caring for your pets as if they were his own, we can’t recommend Sam highly enough. Thank you again, Sam!”

About: I have been taking care of my neighbors' pets for almost 10 years. I have a cat and dog at home who are 13 and 11 years old, and I have helped take care of them since we got them at 6 months and 8 months old. I am a student I'm university, and while I am home for summer and winter breaks I am able to spend as much time as you need me to with your animals. I was a volunteer at the Animal Defense League shelter, and I specifically helped to socialize aggressive or antisocial dogs. I know that every dog is different, and each will need different things in order to be comfortable, and I will make sure that they are content while I am there.

“Kellie did great with my older dog Lolly (who is a fur factory) and our little Watson (who needs / wants to snuggle all the time). Thanks Kellie for taking such good care of the dogs.”

“Always great to have Matthew watching our three dogs. He is in unfailingly reliable and attentive and they could not be in better hands. In addition, while watching the house he detected and saved us from a potentially disastrous water leak. Just great knowing Matthew is on the job.”

“Wonderful! Very attentive to my poodles. Helped to address a food issue when one of mine went on a hunger strike. Very respectful of my home. She stayed for 3 days and 2 nites. Great communication! Love her!!”

“Georgia was fantastic! She was available on short notice and took amazing care of our dog, Milo. Our dog is an anxious rescue, but she is a dog whisperer and immediately put our boy at ease and he was even wanting to sleep with her night one and showing his belly which he doesn’t do unless he’s 100% comfortable. I apologized for running low on his supplies and for him being a little stinky since his bath was delayed and she didn’t even hesitate to offer to go grab what he needed and even offered to bathe him. On top of taking great care of him, she took care of us anxious dog parents and communicated every step of the way and gave lots of updates and pictures. I couldn’t recommend her enough. Will definitely be using her in the future.”

Megan C.

“Sarah was great! She took care of our dog and kept us up to date on everything. We would recommend her and use her to watch our dog again! Thank you Sarah!”

Joel C.

“Dora is wonderful and very loving to our furry babies!! I don’t worry about anything when we are out of town and our girls just love her!! We will be booking with Dora again and again!”

Dana C.

“Emily was so generous to make sure that bubba was taken care of the entire time we were gone! He was exhausted from all the play time he received, which made us happy to know he was treated properly!”

Haley M.

“Avrielle do a great job and we came home to happy and healthy fur babies”

About: Hi there! I have grown up in veterinarians homes my whole life and have always been surrounded by animals. I understand how important our companions are and how much love and time they deserve. Sometimes it can be scary when our parents are away so I strive to create a loving and comforting environment for your pet until you return! I have worked as a veterinary technician and a kennel technician professionally for about 4 years now so I have plenty of experience with many types of behaviors, medications (oral or injectable), special needs, elderly, energetic and everything in between for your pup or kitty. I will enjoy taking you pet for a walk around your neighborhood, ensuring you pet gets it’s proper meal, playing and giving love just how your pet likes it, and maintaining your pets everyday routine to ensure they are as comfortable as possible. Currently I work full time and some weekends at a veterinary hospital. Right now I have availability for only a few clients at a time. I strive to keep your pet as relaxed as possible in their normal routine while you are away. Whether your pet likes playing games outside before dinner or prefers being pet on the couch, I try provide animals with the care they are used to getting while at home.

“Damien did an amazing job at caring for my dogs. They warmed up to him very quickly loved being around him. He was also very respectful of the house and very clean. I will be booking him again. I highly recommend Damien to anyone needing a good sitter.”

About: Elvis, a 14lb shi-poo and his two new buddies, Tucker and Nanook, love having other puppy guests over since his big brother passed on. We are very active and enjoy going for long walks and finding new things to sniff. The house is open with plenty of space to lounge on. The house is tiled except for the guest bedrooms and pretty puppy proof with a close of a few bedroom doors and a blanket on the couch. The pups have full access to a fenced outdoor space where squirrel and bird activity can be found in the mornings. I have had dogs since I was 7 years old and I volunteered at shelter for many years. I grew up with animals of all kinds on a farm in Vermont and its just my way of life. Furry friends are the best! I will cherish yours as much as I cherish mine. Please note that I prefer only weekend stay-cations for your pup but can do mid week if we arrange with enough advance notice. I have a pretty flexible schedule and my husband works from home. The dogs will get plenty of belly rubs and love. Since, we have three of our own, we are very prepared for any doggie need I have a fenced in yard and we we generally keep the dogs corralled to wherever we are or in the non carpet areas. We are happy to crate, if you bring one. Dogs can go on furniture (up to 25lb)

About: I have always loved caring for other dogs when growing up. My pup is the same way. We both love visitors and would love to have your fur baby stay with us I work from home Full time. My routine with my own fur baby is feeding twice a day and potty breaks 3 times a day. We also do frequent trips to the dog park onsite. My Penny girl is one of the most social dogs I’ve ever had. She loves meeting new dogs and is such a good host when we have fur visitors. I work remotely which allows me to give quite a bit of attention to my pup and any visitors.
