“Nicholas was a great caretaker for our 9 year old dog. He has a great backyard which our dog loved and a warm family environment. Nicholas was very flexible with us as our plans changed and he is extremely easy to work with. Would highly recommend and we are going to rebook.”
“Rowan and family took great care of Cooper would definitely have him watch cooper again, He sent me pictures and messages on how cooper was doing Thanks again for taking care of my dog🐾🦴”
“Ruchi and her husband are so wonderful during our dogs stay at their house. I was a bit nervous as I’ve never left our dogs with a sitter before and she was incredibly communicative and proactive. She sent us so many pictures which set us at ease and she was genuinely kind and lovely. Would recommend!”
“I cannot say enough great things about Charlene!! She was so kind and accommodating! She updated with pictures and communication. Lou can be a bit grumpy and doesn’t warm up to strangers very quickly but by night two with Charlene he was snuggling up with her! She is a true dog whisper with a very calming and welcoming demeanor!!! I would recommend her 100 times over!!!! We will 100% be coming back to her!! Lou loved her a ton and played well with her cute pup Scout!”
“My dog and I were immediately comfortable with Michele. She went above and beyond to exercise Wilson and keep him entertained. I got multiple updates and he looks so happy. We recently lost our other best dog friend of 14 years it's such a relief to have a compassionate competent caretaker to help keep my Wilson 3 years old feeling attended to and not alone.”

“Deborah did an amazing job with our two rowdy dogs. Both have their particularities, and idiosyncrasies and Deborah made sure that they were safe, well-cared for and fulfilled during their stay. She was easy to communicate with, responsive and answered all of our questions. Her property is really well set-up for dog guests, and very securely fenced (one of our dogs is a flight risk so I always double check!). I am so grateful to have connected with Deborah and will definitely be reaching out in the future!”
“Jim and Trinity were wonderful, patient and caring with our pup who was anxious for his first stay away from home. We felt completely at ease through their communication and warm and responsible manner. We would definitely have Argos stay with them again next time we go away! Thank you!!”
About: As a kid, I've always had a love for dogs and would watch my friend's dogs when out of town. My goal is to always give a dog all the attention and love they deserve, whether it's through long walks, drives, or spending some quality time cuddling. I have no problem with big or small dogs; they all deserve the same amount of love! I currently have 2 dogs (Charlie & Remi, 60lbs each), who are great with other dogs and humans. They would love to help provide some fun playtime to other furry friends! Together, we are always down for fun adventures outside, or a chill day at home :) I'm available for boarding and dog walks any day of the week! I'd love to spend some time this summer taking care of your dog and making sure that they have fun :) I have a fenced yard and 2 very sweet, friendly dogs who would love to have a new friend to play and hang out with! Because of the fenced yard, the dogs can take as many potty breaks as needed (or even extra outdoor playtime!). Dogs need to be able to go up and down a small set of stairs to get into the house. For dog walks, I can either take them with one of my dogs or give your pet a personalized one-on-one walk so they can make the most out of their experience.
“Christina cared so well for our elderly pug, I’m really grateful! She stayed in great touch about some of Vivian’s special needs, which really helped me feel that Vivian was in good hands. Wonderful sitter!”
“Jyotidipta and his family took exceptional care of Luna. From the start, they were warm, flexible, and incredibly accommodating. Luna can be a bit anxious when meeting someone new, but they handled it with patience and care, making sure she felt safe and at ease within just a few hours. Their home environment is attentive and engaging. Jyotidipta’s son played a big role in keeping Luna active and happy, with plenty of playtime, exercise, and walks throughout the day. I especially appreciated the regular updates. The photos and videos gave me full peace of mind and showed just how much attention and affection she was receiving. It’s clear Luna was not just looked after, but genuinely cared for. I would confidently recommend Jyotidipta to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful caregiver.”
About: I've had pets my entire life. For over 40 years, I've raised puppies and kitties into well-behaved, loved members of my family. I have some experience giving medicine and training. I work from home 4 days of the work week and even on the day that I’m away, pets are never left alone for more than 5-6 hours a day, which is rare at that. I walk our dog daily and there is plenty of time to go out and play in a fenced yard multiples times during the day. As mentioned above, we lets our dogs get plenty of fresh air and exercise and they are rarely alone for long stretches at a time. If I'm taking care of a pet in their own home, those pets can get walks and regular visits based on their needs.
“Brooke was great! Sent us texts and pics of Cosette and assured us Cosette was doing well! Difficult to find a pet sitter that you feel very comfortable with and know that your beloved pet is in good hands! We did!!!”

“Niki gave me such peace of mind during my trip away from my senior dog. He has some health issues and can be a very picky eater but Niki was able to get him to take his meds and eat, so I was able to enjoy my trip and not worry about my pup the whole time. She was so patient with him!! She was also great with my cats and went above and beyond taking care of the group. She gave detailed updates EVERY time she came over, which was so nice. I would absolutely recommend Niki! She really treats your animals like they’re her own!”
“Jocelyn was great! Provided wonderful updates and was very pleasant to chat with. I knew from the start that our cat was in good hands and Jocelyn kept proving that to be true each day. If you want someone who will go the extra mile to make sure your pets are loved while you’re away, Jocelyn is your person!”
“Ben did a wonderful job managing our critters. We were very pleased with his work and will definitely hire him again. He kept us updated while we were away and we didn't have to worry about their safety, care, watering, or feeding. We highly recommend Ben.”
“Erica is fantastic! This was our first time using a pet sitting service and we were nervous, but Erica quickly put our minds at ease. She came over before the booking to meet our cat, Gilbert, and they immediately clicked. She is clearly a pet-person. We booked Erica for a week of drop-in visits while we were away on vacation. She was punctual and a great communicator, sending pictures of our fur baby each day. There was a major snowstorm and 12+ hour power outage while we were away, and Erica went above and beyond to communicate with us and make sure Gilbert’s needs were met. She even shoveled our walkway! We highly recommend Erica and will definitely book with her again.”

“Brittany did a great job looking after my cats, everything was well taken care of and I appreciated the status updates and pictures of them she sent. I will definitely book her again.”

About: Have had pets since I was a child, over 20 years. I am a current pet and livestock owner. I have dogs, goats, bunnies and chickens. I am available most week days and every other weekend.

“Karen was absolutely wonderful with my two cats. She stayed in my house with them for over a week during Christmas and New Years, was a great communicator, kept me updated with photos, and I felt very reassured leaving my pets with someone so responsible. Upon my return everything was tidy, the cats were well fed with extra food and water laid out, and litter boxes cleaned. It was a great experience and so wonderful having her take care of them while I was away so I could relax and enjoy my vacation worry free.”
“Aleah took great care of our kitties. She sent us pictures and updates while we were away and even befriended our timid guy. We are super appreciative to have someone spend time with our cats since they love company!”
About: Relationship with animals has always been a passion of mine. I started grooming dogs with my grandmother at the age of 10, but was her assistant long before I earned the title. It brings me joy and fulfillment to care for pups and cats alike, while creating an environment where they (and you) can feel safe and earn my trust in the process. As a part time bartender at Pascolo Restaurant in Downtown Burlington, it would fit into my schedule to walk dogs in the morning, afternoon and early evening as well as weekends. There is a lot of freedom to work around your schedule :) In my home, I live off of Main Street in Vergennes and can provide safe walking around town as well as some of the trails near by. In your home, I am quick to adapt to whatever will make you most comfortable!
About: I grew up around dogs. I volunteered with my aunt that rescued dogs until I could get my own. My Aunt has about 10-15 dogs on average at a time and the rescue organization had close to 50 dogs at a time I was volunteering there. I had 2 Wheaten Terrier mixes rescues one 16 years and another 12 years old. I had a 90lb, 11 year old Golden Doodle. I often house sit for my grandparents who have an Airedale Terrier. I also have experience working with dogs in the military. I love working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. I am trying out this service to walk some dogs, do some feedings and let outs for bathroom brakes while you're away, but mostly I love dogs. I have experience with dogs with cataracts, arthritis, and incontinence and I have experience working with other dogs with disabilities. I'd be willing to have dogs in my car. I am flexible with your dogs' training requirements. I am working full time and I have the ability to take care of your dog. Id love to take your dog to the park on the weekends. I can not board dogs currently; I'm sorry if this does not meet your needs. I would love to take care of your dog in your home while you're away.
“I recently hired Jess to take care of my Tommy while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, Jess was professional, communicative, and clearly passionate about animals. During our meet-and-greet, Jess took the time to understand my pet’s routine and needs, which put my mind at ease. When I returned, my Tommy was happy and well-cared for, which is the best indicator of a great pet sitter. I highly recommend Jess to anyone looking for reliable and loving care for their furry family members!”
“Shelby was awesome! Our cats are normally very shy, but on Shelby's first visit they came right out. She is definitely a cat person and we felt very comfortable with her in charge. Excellent communicator. Highly recommend!”

“He was responsive, flexible, and sent us updates which were much appreciated. Our dog appeared to have enjoyed his time, happy & healthy. We would definitely use Saveliy again on a future trip to the area!”
“I would highly recommend Dawn to take care of your fur baby; she cared for my rambunctious Goldendoodle as if he were her own. She is conveniently located in a quaint neighborhood that has limited traffic and no unleashed dogs; so, in addition to getting exercise in Dawn’s fenced in backyard, my puppy got exercise when Dawn walked around the neighborhood. After playing with toys supplied by Dawn, my dog cozied up to her dog for a nap. I was so hesitant to leave my precious baby with a complete stranger (he’s my first ever dog and I love him so much), but after meeting Dawn, I felt completely at ease entrusting her to take the greatest care of him. She definitely has a love of animals. Thank you, Dawn. Rusty ? and Kelly”
“Rodan was absolutely great. The dogs were comfortable there, got walked and fed and played with his dog. This was very comforting to us as it was a new place fort them but they settled right in. I would highly recommend him!”
“Christina agreed to M&G for us while we vacationed in Vermont. A day of doggy daycare was arranged. We've had the Beagles up and down during our vacation. Riley needed a day to play with friends. Roxie just needed a day to relax. Great day for all.”

“Our dog had an amazing time at daycare with Jake and Echo! They sent us pictures every day to let us know how he was doing and his communication was fantastic. They were also super flexible and accommodating with our drop off and pickup schedule. By the end of the week our dog was so excited to go visit every day. Will absolutely be bringing him back in the future!”

“We absolutely love Eric! We've taken our pup, a 1-year-old German Shepherd, to him a few times and have it scheduled for her to be there once a week every week. She absolutely loves it, going for walks and playing with one or two other dogs all day while we're at work. We've always picked up a happy, tuckered, fulfilled dog at the end of the day, so what more can you ask for? Eric is also incredibly responsible and perceptive. He watches his dogs very carefully and will do anything to make sure everyone has the safest and most fun day possible. He takes the care and comfort of the dogs very seriously which gives us a lot of peace of mind while we are at work. We're truly so thrilled to have found Eric and can't wait to hear what amazing day our pup had every week! We cannot recommend Eric enough.”

“Maddy was incredibly easy to communicate with when booking my dog and very accommodating of the fact he is still being trained/working on some issues from the rescue and therefore cannot be left unsupervised. She kept me updated on how he was doing and he seems to have had a good time. I absolutely would recommend booking with Maddy and will do so again next time I need someone to watch Tucker.”
“Hannah was amazing with our pup!! We scheduled last minute and she was super friendly and nice with the whole process! And gave us updates on our dog! Couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: As a lifelong dog owner, animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve owned four Labrador Retrievers over the years and currently have one lovable lab, Ellie Bear, who absolutely loves making new furry friends. My experience goes far beyond basic pet care — my first dog, Nala, had a litter of 8 puppies, giving me hands-on experience with canine pregnancy, birthing, newborn puppy care, feeding schedules, socialization, and raising puppies in a safe, loving environment. I understand the importance of patience, routine, exercise, affection, and making pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Whether your pup loves playtime, cuddles, or simply having companionship, I treat every dog like family. 🐾 🐾 Availability & Care Schedule 🐾 Your pup will never be left alone — someone will always be home 24/7, whether it’s myself, Pep, or Kevin. We provide a safe, loving, family-style environment where dogs receive constant attention, care, and companionship. Each day includes: • Plenty of playtime and exercise • Snuggles, affection, and personalized attention • Potty breaks and outdoor time • A cozy, stress-free environment where your dog is treated like family 🐻🐾 I am currently available for: • Weekend boarding • Extended stays when needed • Flexible scheduling depending on availability My goal is to make every pup feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away! Your pup’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. We provide a loving, family-style environment where dogs are treated like one of our own. We have a large fenced-in yard perfect for running, playing, fetch, and getting lots of energy out safely. Our chocolate lab, Ellie Bear, absolutely loves making new friends, chasing tennis balls, and cooling down afterward in the pet pool on warmer days! 🐻💦 For boarding stays, I can easily accommodate your dog’s sleeping preferences. If your pup is crate trained, I’m happy to crate them when needed, or they can relax in a cozy dog bed for bedtime. And if your dog is used to extra snuggles and sleeping close to their humans, we don’t mind cuddles in bed either — we want them to feel as comfortable and at home as possible. Most importantly, your dog will never be left alone. Someone will always be home 24/7 — whether it’s myself, or Kevin — so your pup will always have supervision, companionship, love, and care.

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 17. I have had lots of experience walking active larger breeds and taking care of puppies, kittens and cats. When I’m not hanging out with animals, I stay active and creative. Over the years I’ve worked as a preschool teacher, full time nanny, swim coach/ instructor and security guard in New York as well as Northern California. I believe that understanding animals vocal and physical actions through sincere intuitive observation, is the most important quality to have when taking care of a pet and their needs. Safety, trust & environment; There are many safe trails throughout the Adirondacks that I’m comfortable walking dogs on and I always bring water to share with a on the go water bowl! When traveling with animals I always put on a gentle playlist I made for my own pets to ensure they don’t get any anxiety from the sounds of being on the road. I have a great amount of experience with bathing/ washing dogs and cats for either sensitive issues or just a routine bath for a muddy pup. I have lots of experience with handling and providing medication to animals, as well as bottle feeding with a gentle approach.
About: I’ve worked with dogs on and off for years but have had dogs all of my life. I have given played with big packs of pups and done solo play times as well. I have a flexible schedule that will let me have more availability for your fluffy friends to get out and play and exercise. I’m looking for a long term dog caring commitment to start off my new year. I am not able to do home care ( in my home) at this time. I do have two wonderful dogs who love to have play dates at puppy parks and go for long walks.
“Kazmin was a life saver! She was so patient with our pandemic puppy on the first visit and by the second visit they were best buddies!! Kazmin sent loads of pictures from her visit and was timely each day that she came. We couldn’t be more thankful!”
About: Relationship with animals has always been a passion of mine. I started grooming dogs with my grandmother at the age of 10, but was her assistant long before I earned the title. It brings me joy and fulfillment to care for pups and cats alike, while creating an environment where they (and you) can feel safe and earn my trust in the process. As a part time bartender at Pascolo Restaurant in Downtown Burlington, it would fit into my schedule to walk dogs in the morning, afternoon and early evening as well as weekends. There is a lot of freedom to work around your schedule :) In my home, I live off of Main Street in Vergennes and can provide safe walking around town as well as some of the trails near by. In your home, I am quick to adapt to whatever will make you most comfortable!
“We hired Shelby to meet us at a half marathon and watch our dogs while we ran. We were traveling from Maryland to Vermont and then on to Rhode Island, and we didn’t want to leave our dogs alone. She was AMAZING! Our 2 dogs loved her from the start and we felt comfortable leaving them with her to keep safe. If we were ever to find ourselves in Vermont again, we would definitely look her up! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: As a dog mom of three, I understand how important routine, safety, and trust are when someone else is caring for your dog. I provide in-home sitting, walks, and drop-in visits. I’ve cared for both large and small breeds, as well as puppies and senior dogs. I’m comfortable administering medications if needed. My goal is to make sure both you and your dog feel completely at ease while you’re away. Since I work online from home, I can be with your pets throughout the day, giving them love, attention, walks, playtime, and everything they need. Occasionally, I step out for short house cleanings, but I would only be gone for a couple of hours at most. In your home, I make sure your pets are safe, cared for, and loved. I follow their routines, provide walks and playtime, and keep them happy and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I have been providing care for animals since I was 13. I have worked with and provided sitting and supervision for animals of all kinds big and small. Having animals of my own, I have come to see the extreme need for good honest sitters to care for your pets while you are away from home. As a nurse for over 33 years, I have also had the privilege of seeing first-hand the impact animals have on a person's life. I will not only take care of all your pet needs, I will assure you and your family will enjoy time away knowing your pets are safe and happy. My current experience has been working with all animals including pregnant mommas, newborns, adults, disability needs, and hospice. I currently am a foster mom and have provided a safe loving environment until they find their forever homes. I have devoted my life caring for pets and do this on a full-time basis to provide and dedicate every moment I have to your pets needs. My home has a fenced in yard, area in my home for privacy and rest, and more love than any one pet could need. I will also do overnights at your home so your pets can feel comfortable in their own environment.

“Nicholas was a great caretaker for our 9 year old dog. He has a great backyard which our dog loved and a warm family environment. Nicholas was very flexible with us as our plans changed and he is extremely easy to work with. Would highly recommend and we are going to rebook.”
“Rowan and family took great care of Cooper would definitely have him watch cooper again, He sent me pictures and messages on how cooper was doing Thanks again for taking care of my dog🐾🦴”
“Ruchi and her husband are so wonderful during our dogs stay at their house. I was a bit nervous as I’ve never left our dogs with a sitter before and she was incredibly communicative and proactive. She sent us so many pictures which set us at ease and she was genuinely kind and lovely. Would recommend!”
“I cannot say enough great things about Charlene!! She was so kind and accommodating! She updated with pictures and communication. Lou can be a bit grumpy and doesn’t warm up to strangers very quickly but by night two with Charlene he was snuggling up with her! She is a true dog whisper with a very calming and welcoming demeanor!!! I would recommend her 100 times over!!!! We will 100% be coming back to her!! Lou loved her a ton and played well with her cute pup Scout!”
“My dog and I were immediately comfortable with Michele. She went above and beyond to exercise Wilson and keep him entertained. I got multiple updates and he looks so happy. We recently lost our other best dog friend of 14 years it's such a relief to have a compassionate competent caretaker to help keep my Wilson 3 years old feeling attended to and not alone.”
“Savannah is the kindest soul and took care of our dog as if they were her own. She was quick to reply for updates and was attentive to Murphys active breed (walks & enrichment). Savanahh will be our go to while in Vermont!”
“Deborah did an amazing job with our two rowdy dogs. Both have their particularities, and idiosyncrasies and Deborah made sure that they were safe, well-cared for and fulfilled during their stay. She was easy to communicate with, responsive and answered all of our questions. Her property is really well set-up for dog guests, and very securely fenced (one of our dogs is a flight risk so I always double check!). I am so grateful to have connected with Deborah and will definitely be reaching out in the future!”
“Jim and Trinity were wonderful, patient and caring with our pup who was anxious for his first stay away from home. We felt completely at ease through their communication and warm and responsible manner. We would definitely have Argos stay with them again next time we go away! Thank you!!”
About: As a kid, I've always had a love for dogs and would watch my friend's dogs when out of town. My goal is to always give a dog all the attention and love they deserve, whether it's through long walks, drives, or spending some quality time cuddling. I have no problem with big or small dogs; they all deserve the same amount of love! I currently have 2 dogs (Charlie & Remi, 60lbs each), who are great with other dogs and humans. They would love to help provide some fun playtime to other furry friends! Together, we are always down for fun adventures outside, or a chill day at home :) I'm available for boarding and dog walks any day of the week! I'd love to spend some time this summer taking care of your dog and making sure that they have fun :) I have a fenced yard and 2 very sweet, friendly dogs who would love to have a new friend to play and hang out with! Because of the fenced yard, the dogs can take as many potty breaks as needed (or even extra outdoor playtime!). Dogs need to be able to go up and down a small set of stairs to get into the house. For dog walks, I can either take them with one of my dogs or give your pet a personalized one-on-one walk so they can make the most out of their experience.
“Jyotidipta and his family took exceptional care of Luna. From the start, they were warm, flexible, and incredibly accommodating. Luna can be a bit anxious when meeting someone new, but they handled it with patience and care, making sure she felt safe and at ease within just a few hours. Their home environment is attentive and engaging. Jyotidipta’s son played a big role in keeping Luna active and happy, with plenty of playtime, exercise, and walks throughout the day. I especially appreciated the regular updates. The photos and videos gave me full peace of mind and showed just how much attention and affection she was receiving. It’s clear Luna was not just looked after, but genuinely cared for. I would confidently recommend Jyotidipta to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful caregiver.”
About: I've had pets my entire life. For over 40 years, I've raised puppies and kitties into well-behaved, loved members of my family. I have some experience giving medicine and training. I work from home 4 days of the work week and even on the day that I’m away, pets are never left alone for more than 5-6 hours a day, which is rare at that. I walk our dog daily and there is plenty of time to go out and play in a fenced yard multiples times during the day. As mentioned above, we lets our dogs get plenty of fresh air and exercise and they are rarely alone for long stretches at a time. If I'm taking care of a pet in their own home, those pets can get walks and regular visits based on their needs.
“Brooke was great! Sent us texts and pics of Cosette and assured us Cosette was doing well! Difficult to find a pet sitter that you feel very comfortable with and know that your beloved pet is in good hands! We did!!!”
“Our dog, Lyra, had a great time with Dillon and his two dogs. We got frequent updates and Lyra always seemed happy and safe. This was one of the most professional experiences I’ve had on Rover. We'll definitely book again.”
“Cia took great care of our dog while we went away for a weekend. To us, the most important things we look for in a sitter are responsibility, sensitivity, and good communication. Cia has all three of these. After this experience, we definitely recommend her services and we will surely use her again. Thanks, Cia!”
About: As a lifelong dog owner, animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve owned four Labrador Retrievers over the years and currently have one lovable lab, Ellie Bear, who absolutely loves making new furry friends. My experience goes far beyond basic pet care — my first dog, Nala, had a litter of 8 puppies, giving me hands-on experience with canine pregnancy, birthing, newborn puppy care, feeding schedules, socialization, and raising puppies in a safe, loving environment. I understand the importance of patience, routine, exercise, affection, and making pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Whether your pup loves playtime, cuddles, or simply having companionship, I treat every dog like family. 🐾 🐾 Availability & Care Schedule 🐾 Your pup will never be left alone — someone will always be home 24/7, whether it’s myself, Pep, or Kevin. We provide a safe, loving, family-style environment where dogs receive constant attention, care, and companionship. Each day includes: • Plenty of playtime and exercise • Snuggles, affection, and personalized attention • Potty breaks and outdoor time • A cozy, stress-free environment where your dog is treated like family 🐻🐾 I am currently available for: • Weekend boarding • Extended stays when needed • Flexible scheduling depending on availability My goal is to make every pup feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away! Your pup’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. We provide a loving, family-style environment where dogs are treated like one of our own. We have a large fenced-in yard perfect for running, playing, fetch, and getting lots of energy out safely. Our chocolate lab, Ellie Bear, absolutely loves making new friends, chasing tennis balls, and cooling down afterward in the pet pool on warmer days! 🐻💦 For boarding stays, I can easily accommodate your dog’s sleeping preferences. If your pup is crate trained, I’m happy to crate them when needed, or they can relax in a cozy dog bed for bedtime. And if your dog is used to extra snuggles and sleeping close to their humans, we don’t mind cuddles in bed either — we want them to feel as comfortable and at home as possible. Most importantly, your dog will never be left alone. Someone will always be home 24/7 — whether it’s myself, or Kevin — so your pup will always have supervision, companionship, love, and care.
