“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🐾🦴”
“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!!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
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.
About: Hey! Im Skye! I’m a senior at the university of Vermont studying political science and history. I’ve had pets from gerbils to horses my entire life and have cared for pets with special needs, disabilities, and aggression. I would love to spend some quality time with your pup or kitty whether it be snuggling all day or going for a hike! My number one priority is your pet’s safety and well being. —— Open to boarding smaller or low energy dogs, must be okay with cat in house. My schedule varies, but I work from home most of the time. If im watching your pup it will be a day I work from home so I can give them attention throughout the day. If watching a pet in your home, I follow the provided instructions, while ensuring to keep everything clean and tidy. If boarding in my home, your pet is welcome to the entire apartment, when supervised, and will mostly hang out in the living room or my room. Pets are allowed on couches and beds. We do have a cat in the home that will ignore the dog as long as it is not aggressive towards her.
“I know my dog was well taken care of when she takes the time to give a quick kiss to each of her caregivers! And…during the excitement of Mamas home! Thank you so much for the kind and loving care and the great communication and photos! Those go along way to help sooth mamas anxiety of having to leave her baby with a new person! Thank you, thank you thank you!”
“Hannah took wonderful care of our miniature dachshund for the day. We had a ski trip planned and needed to have someone watch our shy girl while we were away. She was attentive, took her on multiple walks, and made pick up and drop off very easy. I definitely recommend Hannah and would have her pet sit again.”

“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.”
“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.”

Back in CO I house sat and watched dogs frequently and loved it , now I work at a Canine daycare and Training facility in Plattsburgh Tuesday-Friday.

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!
“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!”

“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!”
“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.”
“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!”

“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!”

About: Hello! Kindly read my entire profile before requesting a booking to ensure I will be a great fit for you and your pets :) My gentle approach to animal care helps anxious animals feel safe and comfortable while their parents are away.

“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.”
“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!”

“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!”
“Aaron was a great fit for our dog - Miso loved spending the week with him. It took a few days for Miso to adjust to his first ever sitter and Aaron handled it well - checking in with us when he noticed that Miso wasn't eating and seemed a little home sick. By the end of the week, Miso seemed to be having a great time. Aaron sent pictures and updates throughout the week, which was really appreciated. We would highly recommend Aaron. He was open to meeting with us before we left on vacation and asked great questions (vet info, local contacts, likes and dislikes, etc). We usually leave Miso at a boarder, but since our trip was going to be longer than usual we were hoping to find someone local that could give Miso more personal attention and affection - Aaron made us feel comfortable leaving Miso with him for an extended period of time. Thanks for taking such good care of Miso for us, Aaron!”
“Julie and her partner were absolutely amazing! They were communicative and attentive, took care of our dog like their own. They are great people who genuinely just want to make sure your pet is comfortable away from home! I can't recommend them enough!”
“Glenn watched our dog for 3 days while we were out of town. He provided us with updates and pictures daily which really made us feel at ease. We will definitely be using Glenn in the future and would highly recommend!”
