“Abby took great care of my Jack Russell mix rescue. Her farm was a great environment for my dog, who needs a lot of interaction and stimulation. Abby sent us great photos of our dog on the farm, which we really appreciated. I will definitely be leaving my dog with Abby again!”
“Heather and her family were great! 😊 They always kept me updated about my dog and were very accommodating and professional. We left our dog for 18 days, and I was never worried even once because I felt very comfortable leaving her in their care. You can really tell how much they genuinely cared for and loved our dog while we were away. Our dog was happy, healthy, and very well taken care of. Will definitely come back!”
“Jie took amazing care of my fur baby again! I had some last minute travel needs that extended my time and she was very responsive and accommodating! Will certainly leave my little one in her care again during travel!”
“Wonderful couple. My dog, Willow, had such a great time with them and their fur baby, Emily, I don't think she missed me at all. Lol. I'm so happy I found someone I trust to care for Willow when I travel.”
“Hannah was great! This was our first time leaving our dog, Taco, with her, and it was for 5 days. We were of course nervous leaving him with someone new for so long, but as soon as we walked through her door, we were reassured he was going to be in great care! She kept us updated with photos throughout, and it was clear he was treated like part of the family during that time. Taco is excited to visit again!”
“Cara and her family had me completely at ease from our meet & greet through my dog’s stay. Cara shared photos every day and included notes - allowed me to remain confident in Fiona’s care. Cara is very responsive and excellent with communicating.”
“Greta provided great care for our 11 month old puppy. She has a wonderful property for active dogs and takes them on several walks a day. She was very communicative throughout our pets stay and provided pictures and updates several times a day. We would not hesitate to use her services again. Thank you for the care.”
“Megan is absolutely incredible. She treats our dog as if she were her own. She communicates regularly and keeps us informed. So very grateful to have Megan watch our Fina when we are away. Five stars and beyond!”
“Our usual sitter wasn't available for the dates we needed, so I reached out to Jodie. She and her partner were so kind and welcoming to our two dogs, Walter and Gwen. They had a great time, and we were able to enjoy our family visit without any concerns. Thank you both so much!”
“Used Jo twice. Both her and her husband are very kind and welcoming. Finnick seems to enjoy their company too. Jo will maintains communication throughout the stay with photos. Overall we will continue to use Jo as long as she provides her services and her schedule is available for Finnick's stay”
“Swift, Brian, family were amazing with our two dogs! They sent lots of photos throughout the weekend and responded quickly. We will definitely be using them again and highly recommend!”
“Alicia and her sweet family welcomed Ollie into their home for a 10 day stay. This was Ollie's first stay away from home and Alicia did her best to make him feel safe and comfortable during his stay. Upon pickup he was healthy and happy - would not hesitate to book again!”
“Emily was AMAZING! Our Gus had a great time! It was obvious that Emily not only took VERY good care of him but he was treated to his all-time favorite game of fetch and cooling off in the kiddie pool multiple times! He came home happy and tired. :) We highly recommend Emily, she goes above and beyond expectations, and we will definitely use her again! Thanks Emily!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Amy was warm, kind, and incredibly attentive while caring for my dog. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my baby was in such good hands. Communication was great, and it was clear she genuinely cared. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her services!”
“Michelle was terrific! Ellie stayed with her for Thanksgiving weekend and came home happy and tired! She was well-loved and Michelle kept us updated with pics and videos… and was super responsive and proactive before and during the entire experience. Thank you Michelle!”
“Very hospitable and attentive. Sent many photos of my dog, playing with other dogs, chewing squeaky toys they gave him, playing ball, and resting with the pack. My dog was happy and in good health when I picked him up. I will have no stress about leaving him there again.”

About: Cat Care Experience While my professional background is rooted in K9 training and care, my experience with cats comes from something just as meaningful — being a devoted cat owner and lifelong animal lover. As an adult, my wife and I co-owned and cared for two wonderful cats who were part of our family for about eight years with me and fifteen years for my wife. I cared for them daily — feeding, cleaning, playing, watching their health, and making sure they felt safe, loved, and comfortable in a home shared with our dogs (That was super fun on occasion in the Tradtional sense..haha.) Through them, I learned firsthand that cats need: 🐾 Patience and respect for their space ❤️ Gentle, calm handling 🏡 Consistency in routines to reduce stress 👀 Close attention to changes in behavior or health I may not come from a professional cat-training background, but what I do bring is the heart of a true pet parent — someone who understands how deeply we love our animals and how much it matters to know they’re being cared for with kindness and respect. Because of my lifelong love for animals, I treat every cat with the same level of care, responsibility, and compassion that I’ve given my own and that I’ve carried throughout my years working with dogs. When your cat is with me, they’ll be cared for not just as a client’s pet — but as family.

About: I have had animals my whole life from babies to senior. Always a cat and dog and lately have expanded to chickens and ducks. Animal care is my top priority and main focus as I do not have children. My animals are my kids and are treated as thus....very spoiled! Pet care is my number one priority. My work schedule is flexible to this and can be adjusted as necessary to support my pets needs. I care for pets based on routine and love. I find it important maintaining this to establish expectation and stability for the animals. Routine would include; feeding and bathroom schedule with exercise and rest in between. Exercise and rest is a bit more fluid depending on weather and pet communication.
“I am so grateful to Christine for taking impeccable care of our dog while we attended an event in the area. She was easy going and accommodating and sent us pics of our dog having fun to put us totally at ease! Will definitely contact her again when we’re visiting Southern VT.”
“Mike and Laura cared for my pup like she was their own. My dog is a little anxious and overly excitable but Mike took that all in his stride. He sent photos throughout the day and I could quickly see she felt right at home. She had a long walk and lots of playtime with her favorite game of frisbee. The night before we had a big snow storm and Mike was excellent at keeping me up to date on the road conditions. I will be happy to go back another time.”

“Althea took care of my border Collie, Melon, for the day, and had a great time in the snow, playing, and napping with the other pups. Got lots of pictures. Very flexible for dropoff/pickup and very responsive”
“Letícia took such great care of Bomi!! She was incredibly kind and patient with her. Bomi usually needs some time to warm up, especially when we leave her, but Letícia was so understanding of our dog’s needs. She kept us updated with pictures and Bomi looked so comfortable and happy! Her dog, Malu is super sweet too! We highly recommend Letícia if you are looking for a sitter 👍”

About: Hi, my name is Molly and I love dogs and cats and would love to help make sure yours get taken out, get fed and get their litter cleaned up while you're away. I have had my golden retriever, Kona, for just over 9 years and he is my best friend. (He recently passed away from liver cancer) I now have 5 cats and sometimes foster for a local non-profit. One of my cats needs a daily oral medication, so I have experience dispensing liquid medication to cats and have also given shots to diabetic cats before. I’m happy to check up on your feline friend while you’re away or house sit and water your plants as well. I miss my Kona man so much, so I’ll spend as much time with your canine as you would like with some extra playtime and cuddles to get my dog fix! I’m in school full time in the fall but have full availability over the summer. When house sitting I won’t be able to be there 24/7 but I’m happy to do an overnight if you need it. I may need to work for 3 hours but never more than that. I have 5 cats at home correctly, so I’d prefer to pet sit in your home as bringing in more pets to our already loud house will be a little chaotic. I follow best practices when walking on the leash and will follow all your care instructions. Be prepared for tons of pictures from me!

About: Pet Care Experience — From Horses to Cats to Dogs My life with animals began long before it became a profession. At 14 years old, I started caring for horses — feeding, grooming, riding, exercising, and treating them as family. Horses taught me early lessons in patience, responsibility, and the importance of daily, consistent care. They also showed me how powerful the bond can be when animals are treated with respect and love. By 16, that passion grew into the dog world when I had the opportunity to be mentored by a close friend who was a Police K9 handler. That mentorship changed my life and set me on a path that would define my career. I began training at a K9 school in my hometown in New Hampshire, where I learned the foundations of K9 behavior, obedience, care, and handling of working dogs. I poured everything I had into learning the craft. After a year of dedicated internship and training, I taught my first class at just 17 years old. From that moment, I knew this was more than a job — it was a calling. Over the years, my experience grew into becoming a Police K9 handler in New Hampshire, followed by serving as a trainer and instructor for the NH Police K9 Academy through the Working Dog Foundation. I worked daily with high-drive working dogs and their handlers, focusing on discipline, safety, trust, and performance in real-world environments. After completing my full-time police career, I continued my K9 journey overseas, spending eight years in the Middle East providing private K9 handling and instruction in support of Army operations and Private Security detachments. Working in demanding and high-stress conditions further refined my skills and reinforced the importance of calm leadership, consistency, and deep respect for the dogs that depend on us. At the same time, I never stopped helping everyday families with their pets. Training and caring for family dogs — from energetic puppies to older companions — has always been just as important to me as working with professional K9 teams. I believe every dog deserves structure, patience, and loving guidance so they can thrive as well-behaved members of the family. Alongside my deep dog experience, my connection to cats comes from being a devoted cat owner. My wife and I shared our home with two amazing cats for about eight years, caring for them daily and loving them as part of our family. Living with cats taught me to appreciate their unique personalities, their need for gentle handling, respect for space, and the importance of calm, consistent routines — especially in a home shared with dogs. While my background with cats is personal rather than professional, it comes from genuine love and hands-on care as a pet parent. Through every chapter — horses, dogs, and cats — one thing has never changed: I treat animals as family. Today, with 27 years of experience centered around K9 training, handling, and care, supported by a lifetime of loving animals of all kinds, I bring a calm, confident, and compassionate approach to every pet I work with. Whether your dog needs structured care, your cat needs gentle attention, or your pet simply needs someone who will treat them like their own, I’m here to provide that level of trust and commitment. When you leave your pet with me, you’re not just choosing a sitter or caretaker — you’re choosing someone who has built his life around animals and who will care for yours with the same respect, patience, and love I’ve given my own. I am currently able to accommodate week days and most weekends to assist our communities. I can be available pretty much any time during the day as I own my own company that is newer to the industry it is supporting. 🛡️🐾 Safety, Trust & Environment For me, caring for animals has always been about more than just meeting basic needs — it’s about earning trust, creating calm, and treating every pet with the same respect and love I give my own. With decades of experience around animals — especially working dogs in high-responsibility and high-stress environments — I’ve learned that pets thrive when they feel safe, understood, and cared for with consistency. Whether it’s a high-drive dog, a shy cat, or a senior companion, I take the time to understand each animal’s personality, routines, and comfort level. In my care, your pet will have: ❤️ Genuine compassion and patience 🏡 A calm, structured, and loving environment 🦴 Proper exercise, enrichment, and rest 🍽️ Attention to feeding routines and health needs 👀 Close supervision and awareness at all times I believe animals should never feel rushed, ignored, or unsafe. I keep their spaces clean, secure, and peaceful, and I handle every interaction with calm confidence so they know they’re in good hands. Because of my background with working dogs and my life with pets like Aries, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your animal with someone else. I don’t take that lightly. When your pet is with me, they’re treated as part of my family — with the highest level of care, respect, and responsibility. Most importantly, I listen to what matters most to you, learning your pet’s daily routines and needs so I can mirror your care and make their time with me feel just like home.

During the week I don’t go to work until 9/9:30, I also can take a lunch when needed! I leave work around 6pm. I can be flexible as needed, and sometimes can have schedule shifts. I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort in a calm, clean environment. I follow all care instructions closely, provide regular updates, and respect to your home. My goal is to create a low stress experience where your pet feel safe, comfortable and cared for at their own pace.
“Allison was great with my dog Churro. It’s always nerve wracking leaving your house keys and beloved pet with a stranger! After a meet and greet, Allison agreed to walk and feed Churro while I was out of town. She was responsible, accountable and also flexible with a last minute request. Churro seemed happy and well cared for upon my return. I will be calling on Allison again in the near future for help with walking and caring for Churro!”

“Abby took great care of my Jack Russell mix rescue. Her farm was a great environment for my dog, who needs a lot of interaction and stimulation. Abby sent us great photos of our dog on the farm, which we really appreciated. I will definitely be leaving my dog with Abby again!”
“Heather and her family were great! 😊 They always kept me updated about my dog and were very accommodating and professional. We left our dog for 18 days, and I was never worried even once because I felt very comfortable leaving her in their care. You can really tell how much they genuinely cared for and loved our dog while we were away. Our dog was happy, healthy, and very well taken care of. Will definitely come back!”
“Wonderful couple. My dog, Willow, had such a great time with them and their fur baby, Emily, I don't think she missed me at all. Lol. I'm so happy I found someone I trust to care for Willow when I travel.”
“Hannah was great! This was our first time leaving our dog, Taco, with her, and it was for 5 days. We were of course nervous leaving him with someone new for so long, but as soon as we walked through her door, we were reassured he was going to be in great care! She kept us updated with photos throughout, and it was clear he was treated like part of the family during that time. Taco is excited to visit again!”
“Cara and her family had me completely at ease from our meet & greet through my dog’s stay. Cara shared photos every day and included notes - allowed me to remain confident in Fiona’s care. Cara is very responsive and excellent with communicating.”
“Greta provided great care for our 11 month old puppy. She has a wonderful property for active dogs and takes them on several walks a day. She was very communicative throughout our pets stay and provided pictures and updates several times a day. We would not hesitate to use her services again. Thank you for the care.”

“Emily was AMAZING! Our Gus had a great time! It was obvious that Emily not only took VERY good care of him but he was treated to his all-time favorite game of fetch and cooling off in the kiddie pool multiple times! He came home happy and tired. :) We highly recommend Emily, she goes above and beyond expectations, and we will definitely use her again! Thanks Emily!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Amy was warm, kind, and incredibly attentive while caring for my dog. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my baby was in such good hands. Communication was great, and it was clear she genuinely cared. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her services!”
“Michelle was terrific! Ellie stayed with her for Thanksgiving weekend and came home happy and tired! She was well-loved and Michelle kept us updated with pics and videos… and was super responsive and proactive before and during the entire experience. Thank you Michelle!”
“Very hospitable and attentive. Sent many photos of my dog, playing with other dogs, chewing squeaky toys they gave him, playing ball, and resting with the pack. My dog was happy and in good health when I picked him up. I will have no stress about leaving him there again.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently have three of my own, so caring for them comes naturally to me. As a stay-at-home mom to four kids, I’m home and available throughout the day—meaning your pup will always have company, love, and attention. Caring for pets is second nature in my home. Between my three dogs and four kids, there’s always love, play, and activity to go around. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or cozy evening cuddles, pets easily become part of our family rhythm and daily routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep things comfortable and familiar. I make sure they’re well-fed, walked, and given plenty of love and attention—just as if they were my own. I also keep homes tidy and respect any specific instructions, so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I’ve been providing services through Rover since 2024 and worked privately prior to that. I’ve always lived in a household with dogs of all breeds and sizes, and I’ve raised many from puppies through their adult and senior years. I understand that every dog has unique needs at each stage of life and am happy to tailor care specifically for your canine companion. Boarding Details: I have 10 acres of private land with a pond, giving dogs plenty of space to explore and enjoy. Boarding pups are welcomed as part of my pack and family during their stay—I want them to feel just as comfortable as they do at home. We also have a dedicated bedroom, with a crate available if needed, so everyone can have their own space. I can’t wait to connect with you! 🐾 I adventure daily on local trails with my own pups and love planning bigger outings on the weekends. I enjoy including daycare and boarding dogs in our activities when it fits their personality and comfort level, so every pup gets the right mix of exercise and fun. During daycare or boarding stays, dogs receive morning potty breaks and exercise, enrichment or rest during the day, and evening adventures or structured playtime. I keep feeding schedules consistent and make sure everyone has time to settle. I provide regular photo updates and am happy to accommodate special diets, crate preferences, or senior/puppy needs so your dog feels safe and comfortable throughout their stay. I’m available most evenings after 4 PM, with extra flexibility during February and April school vacations. From the end of June through the end of August, when I’m out of school, I’m much more available for weekly let-outs and boarding opportunities if needed. My goal is to keep your pet in their routine as much as possible, so they can be comfortable and things go smoothly! If boarding at our place- dogs have the accessibility to a fenced in yard, several acres of off leash trails explore, a private pond, & 2 friendly pups during their stay!
