Personalized care for your dog or cat - Newport

“Absolutely comforting family to leave your pet with. As much as we missed Koda while we were away we knew he was in good hands. Samantha was great at keeping us posted on how things were going, with little messages and photos. Will definitely be contacting Samantha and her family for our next trip. Thanks again!”

Melanie R.

“Jenna was so caring and considerate for our dog Wally. Wally got along really well with her other dogs and we look forward to having a place for Wally to go when we need care!”

Megan M.

Prescott A.

“Kim was awesome! I was visiting Stowe with my family and felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She did a great job at keeping me updated and sending lots of pictures. My dog got lots of exercise and play time outdoors and looked like he had a blast! I would definitely use Kim again if I’m in the area!”

Kelly B.

About: I currently work full time as a veterinary technician and have years of experience with all types of animals. I also grew up on a farm and have experience with most farm animals. I throughly enjoy pet sitting and spoil them as if they are my own. My favorite part of the job is meeting new people, their pets & all the different personalities i get to enjoy. I want to make your pets as comfortable & happy as possible while you’re away. I stick to their daily routines to have some normality while you’re gone. I have a lot of knowledge with animals and their health. I’ll be able to take care of your pet daily and if there is any emergencies or issues, I’ll know how to safely handle them. I’m also comfortable administrating medications. My schedule is pretty consistent each week. Each work day is typically 8 hours long but some days are shorter than others. Depending on location, lunch time breaks are available! My biggest responsibility is safety; keeping your pet safe while happy is my top priority. This goes for while on walks, adventures or even just bathroom breaks. As well as any sickness that may come up while you’re gone. Being a veterinary technician, i can realize a sickness sooner than others and know the right course of action.

“Roz was great with my little Corgi! She always sent me cute pics from their walk and ball-playing. I felt so secure knowing that Roz was there to take care of my dog on the couple of days I had to be away mid-day. I highly recommend Roz on Rover!”

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.

“We needed someone trustworthy to come by our home and tend to our kitties while we were out of town and Samantha was it! Samantha was super quick and easy to communicate with. She sent pics of the kitties and even helped out with our chicken! Personable and kind, we’ll definitely use her again :)”

Christine D.

“We LOVE Jenna and so do our boys!! We are so lucky to have found such a thorough, thoughtful sitter to trust our boys with while we are gone.”

Barbara B.

“Cassandra watched our 2 cats for 5 days we would definitely ask her to come back! She was timely and sent picture updates even telling us when they were more lovey that day :)”

Meagan H.

“Margaret did such a great job taking care of our cats! She was very attentive and sent us lots of pictures and updates, we will definitely be working with her again :)”

Rachel L.

About: Even though I’m new to being a sitter, I have had cats my whole life and so I know how to take care of cats very easily and they’re my favorite animal so even if I didn’t, I know a lot of information of how to take care of them!

“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.”

Kathleen S.

“This is the 2nd time Faye and Guy took my doggy and just like last time, they were phenomenal. They are super flexible and helpful and low key with a gorgeous place for my pup to hang out. I feel SO lucky to have met them!”

About: Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do on the side, it’s what I’ve built real experience in. I’ve worked hands-on with dogs for over three years in professional settings, including daycare, boarding, off-leash adventures, and my most recent role was at a training facility where I learned how to safely manage dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I also own 2 dogs of my own, so I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. My goal is always to provide structured, attentive, and genuinely loving care so every dog feels safe, happy, and understood. I am also attending school to become a professional canine trainer. Pet care is my entire life. I have dedicated all 7 days of the week and 365 days of the year towards taking care of others and my own animals. Need last minute boarding due to a family emergency? I’m your girl. Everything else closed when you have work? I’m your girl. Taking a weekend trip but no where is open? I’m. Your. Girl. I am not only here for the convenience of you but also your beloved furry friends My yard is currently not fenced,(fence coming soon!) but I do offer leash training for more enjoyable walking experiences. I do daily walks for all dogs no matter the training level they are at. I have 1 very friendly lab mix and a great dane who would keep your dog friendly dogs company, and I also offer special care for those special pups who are more people dogs than dog dogs for no additional charge. If your dog is crate trained they will be crated for bedtime (9pm-6am) with overnight potty breaks if your pup requires them as well. I keep all dogs and cats separated. Dogs have the downstairs of the home, and cats have the upstairs. I am comfortable with administering basically any medication except needles, the only needle exception being for diabetic cats.

About: Depuis mon plus jeune âge, j'ai toujours été passionné par les animaux. Nous avons toujours eu un chiens depuis mon enfance et j'ai toujours aimé faire des promenades avec eux et en prendre soins. Même que maintenant je suis rendu avec 2 chiens, dixy et kangoo! Je suis donc très a l'aise avec les chiens que ce soit petit ou grand! De plus, je suis intervenante en comportement canin et j'ai ma propre compagnie, Du coeur à la patte! Au plaisir de vous rencontrer ainsi que vos animaux! Mon horraire est assez flexible étant donné que je suis propriétaire de ma propre compagnie. Je suis disponible environ 7 jours sur 7, donc hesitez pas à m'écrire! Je peux fournir mes laisses pour les promenades et pour ce qui est des sorties a domicile je vais me plier a vos exigences. Aussi j'ai toujours des gâteries sans allergènes avec moi pour récompenser votre chien!

“Kim provided doggie daycare to my doodle Rooney while I hit the slopes on our VT vacay. Roo came home happy & tired after playing w/ his friends all day. Kim even provides pick-up/drop-off services which are very convenient & much appreciated! Highly recommend!”

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!

“Brittany is wonderful! We left our pup Molly with her for a day and couldn’t be happier! Molly came back happy, tired and had a great time with Brittany and her pets, she sent us updates with photos and videos! Next time we would definitely reach out again. Thank you so much!”

About: My schedule is flexible so I'm able to spend time throughout the day with your fur baby. I'm active and happy to play fetch for hours! I like to take dogs for multiple walks and give lots of love and pets. The clients I sit for like the fact they can contact me last minute and I'm generally able to adjust my schedule to be available. My schedule changes from week to week but feel free to contact me to double check my availability no matter the season! I like when clients leave me detailed instructions on what their pets normal schedules are, that way there's less stress put on myself and on your fur friend! I'm able to work from home most days of the week, this allows me to be available for all pet needs - morning, lunch time, and after work walks are a part of my daily schedule when we have a dog to take care of. Lots of mental stimulation and training exercises throughout the day to keep them out of trouble helps too! I have a 9 year old cat in the house that tends to keep to herself in the bedroom when there's a dog around. Our home is on 5 acres of land with a big yard to do lots of sniffing around. I'm also located right on the rail trail for longer walks and adventures!
