“Georgia stayed with my cat for 9 days recently. It was a huge relief to be out of the country and not worry at all about either my cat or my residence. She sent many photos of Sebastian. He was clearly a happy camper. The house was immaculate upon returning home. And I found an added bonus of yummy homemade lemon bars left for me in the frig! I'm looking forward to the next trip, as I really couldn't ask for a better situation.”
About: I have always been around pets of all kinds; reptiles, house pets, farm animals, even a tarantula. I am caring and attentive and up for anything! I work from home and set my own work schedule. Pet care can fit right into my flexible schedule. I would love to have a companion on my walks, as I listen to my podcasts!! I like to do my research on a particular pet if I am going to care for it. This ensures I will properly handle and care for the pet, as they vary!
“Heavenly Hayley! My cats are demanding and complicated little goblins but Hayley made me feel like she was their biggest fan. I knew Hayley was indulging all their quirky needs so my time away was even more fun and relaxed. Her presence made everyone's life better. I hesitate to write the review she deserves because she will get too popular on Rover and I might never be able to leave home again.”
About: I am a dog lover and have owned dogs for 15 years. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I can help with puppy training and can administer any medications if necessary. I would love the opportunity to walk your dogs or house sit while you are on vacation. I have open availability. I would really enjoy the opportunity to get to know you and your fur babies. I'm open for all types of visits. My puppy is on a harness and leash. She is always contained or in my home. I have a yard but unfenced. I live down the street from a dog park.
About: I’ve helped take care of my family’s Australian Labradoodle, Penny, ever since we got her, 5 years ago. In these past couple years I’ve facilitated dozens of “doggy play dates” (communal dog walking and play time at dog parks and backyards) with dogs of all different sizes. I am very comfortable and confident with all types of dogs, and often dog sit and dog walk for friends and neighbors when they are out of town. I currently live in Burlington and am free on weekends and after 5pm MWF and after 6pm Tuesday and Thursday. I am able to spend as much time as needed with your pets if it makes you, or them, more comfortable! I’m comfortable caring for pets in new environments. I can crate, feed, walk, and play with your animals, and will be clean and respectful to your space and home.
“Julia was everything we could wish for in a cat sitter and more! She communicated well from the initial inquiry throughout the entire visit, including sending us pictures of our cat and letting us know how she was doing. Julia has a ton of experience caring for animals and cats especially, and didn't bat an eye when I explained the unusual feeding routine or medicine needs of our cat. I highly recommend Julia for anyone in the Springfield area. You are in safe hands!”
“Haley went above and beyond! A third party had left a vital door open and my cat ventured out - Haley let me know immediately, did all the leg work of contacting Rover's support line, got a fb post going, spent a ton of extra time poking around hiding spots outside and even went out and purchased tuna to coax her back home. It was a scary experience but I'm so glad Haley was there for it and that my cat friend is safely home thanks to her efforts with her daught. First time using Rover and glad I did, the support the company offers in this kind of situation is spot on and beyond what I would have expected!”
About: I've always loved all animals. I have not only owned dogs and cats my whole life but have owned ferrets, hedgehogs, birds. I even fostered a baby raccoon once. I am available to house/ pet sit Friday evening through Sunday even. And will be flexible for house/ pet sit other days of the week. I am friendly, professional and flexible. I love animals of all kind. Enjoy going for walks and playing fetch. Also enjoy relaxing around and giving belly rubs. :)
“Agnes was great! She came and dropped in on our two kitties while we were out. She shared photos and updates every time and gave us peace of mind. She also took good care of our home during her visits. We came home to happy kitties!”
About: Since as early as I can remember I have grown up with dogs, and other animals. I have experience in caring for dogs, cats, horses, and some exotic animals as well (small and large animals). I am always ready for a challenge and love spending time with any dog! I have experience in a variety of dog training areas including hunting dogs and service dogs. I am also a pre-veterinary student with basic animal care knowledge! I have worked with a variety of breeds ranging from retrievers and pointers to terriers and toy-breeds. I love working with dogs of all ages and am capable of caring for newborn puppies and your older furry friends! I also have over nine years of house-sitting and pet-sitting experience. Caring for pets is one of my passions so it is easy to make it a part of my daily routine, even while I'm working! Please note, I do work full-time and as such my week-day schedule is typically limited but I am happy to discuss specific options. When caring for your pets they become like my own. I supervise outside time, even if there is a fence and always keep them close!
“Maria was wonderful! She did so well with our anxious, elderly cat and was even able to give him medicine twice a day (which he hates) and she took care of our chickens too! Everyone was doing great when we came home, and Maria updated us consistently. 10/10”
About: I grew up on a farm in Lowell. We always had plenty of cats and dogs to play with. And I have always loved animals. I have experience with watching dogs regularly for a home with 13 dogs so that has been quite the adventure but I love it. I love to give them treats and play with them and just plain spoil them with attention. The owner was concerned about them taking to a new person but they took right to me. Pets do seem to take to me well. And now I am looking for more furry friends so I hope you will contact me! I work from home and I make my own hours. So I am quite flexible. I can do overnights or day visits or walks. I am in Newport Center village but am willing to go within 20 minutes depending on the job. For overnights on a regular basis I may do about 25 minutes away. If you are in Newport Town, Newport City, North Troy, Troy, Jay, Coventry, Irasburg, and Derby these are all well within my area. Others like Brownington, and Barton and Albany and Derby Line and maybe Craftsbury are possible depending on situation. As far as safety, and trust, I mostly do sitting in the client's home so I will do whatever the client wishes, and make sure the pets are safe.
“Ilia is a wonderful sitter. In the single night she spent with our cats, they were clearly happy, content and not missing us at all. It is such a gift to have someone like Ilia care for our beloved animals. Thank you.”
About: Hi! I'm an experienced house and petsitter who truly loves the animals in my care. I've watched pets for many friends and families. I discovered my love of animals while living in Australia when I was asked to live in a family friend's home for six months to watch their aging border collie and cat. I then became a daily dog walker for a yellow lab while her primary caretaker was working; I have also looked after a rat terrier, an Irish terrier, and three labradoodles with regularity. I was a Canine Companion at my local SPCA, having completed a thorough training program there, as well as a volunteer with the local ambulance corps. I have had great experiences with dogs and cats of many different breeds and ages and I look forward to meeting your furry friends! What sets me apart is the amount of time your pets get with me. I spend a lot of time and care with your furry friends. This depends on what the dog and the client needs. I am happy to discuss this with you further when we meet and chat more.
“Alexis took care of our 2 cats while we were out of town. My husband and I were nervous leaving our kitties with someone we didn't know. However, Alexis was very communicative with my husband and me. She sent many photos and texts about how our cats were doing. We also spoke to Alexis on the phone during our absence from the cats. Additionally, Alexis is a Veterinary Technician. The kitties seemed just fine when we returned from our trip.”

Rachel B.
“We have a very anxious/ reactive rescue dog (and a sweet cat) who had never been left with a pet sitter before and then we found Rachel. Rachel took such wonderful care of our pets and has such a loving, calming presence. While we were gone our anxious pup ate every meal, took her meds, and snuggled up to Rachel every moment she could. Rachel is very responsible and communicative and we felt very safe knowing Rachel was there. We are so glad we found Rachel and would highly recommend Rachel as a pet sitter.”
