“Finn was safe and happy with Jackie, so we were able to relax and enjoy our vacation. She followed all our instructions for him, and was wonderful about sending us photos and videos every day. We recommend her, for sure!”
“Alexandra watched my baby Riley when we went on vacation for a week and she was absolutely wonderful. Her and her dog Hamspoiled Riley. They went for walks daily. Riley really enjoyed her time with them. She kept me updated with little notes and pictures that made me feel that my baby girl was safe and being loved. I highly recommend her. She would be my first choice next time I go on vacation.”
“John was a fantastic sitter for our very energetic puppy. He provided us with updates multiple times a day and took great care of her. It was so nice to know our little pup was in great hands and had John’s own dogs to play with.”
“Hanna and her family took wonderful care of my pup, Scout, for a few days and overnights. I received daily updates along with pictures, which gave me such peace of mind. When I picked Scout up, she was excited to see me but clearly very comfortable in their home. I’ll definitely be using Hanna and her family again in the future. Thank you so much, Hanna — Scout says hello! 🐾”
“Peter was terrific! At drop off, he took time to understand our senior dog and her routines. He sent us a picture and update the next morning. She ate all her meals at Peter’s house (which she rarely does at home) so I know she was relaxed with him. At pick up, she made a point to go over and lean into him to say goodbye! Overall a great experience - thanks Peter!”
“This was our first Rover experience. We were beyond pleased with Chelsey! She took such good care of our girl. We got daily pics and knew she was in great hands. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Catherine was an amazing pet sitter! Joey had a great time with her, and I loved receiving lots of photos and videos while I was away. I honestly think Joey enjoyed his time with her just as much as she enjoyed having him. Catherine was flexible, responded promptly to messages, and made the whole experience stress-free. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Gabby provided. I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and loving to take care of their furry family member. Gabby is incredibly kind, friendly, and easy to communicate with. She sent me daily photos and updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing my puppy was happy and well cared for. I would absolutely trust Gabby with my dog again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my little one!☺️”
“Laura took great care of my dog. I could tell my golden enjoyed her stay there and got plenty of attention and exercise. Laura was attentive to her needs and I know my dog would be excited to go back again. Thanks Laura!”
“We couldn’t ask for a better experience with Chad. Our family stayed in Smugglers’ Notch/Stowe area and our resort (if you do timeshare, you understand) doesn’t allow pets. We still wanted our dog close and finding Chad is awesome. He took the time to discuss ahead of boarding all necessary details about Pakun. He even asked for written notes and sent daily pictures and videos. We are kept updated especially with important details about our dog’s behavior. We could tell our Pakun was treated so well. Our English Springer’s hair was not tangled and he was clean when we picked him up. It is hard to believe since our dog has videos of walks, playing in the park and playdates with other dogs,he even did enrichment activities. Our dog is used to group boarding when we go on vacation, he usually comes back smelly and all tangled up. We are so pleased with our experience this time and we are so glad we brought him to have his own vacation with Chad.”
“Simply amazing! Rushi sent cute photos and updates to put my mind at ease - Alan had a blast with her family and sweet little toddler. They took him on walks, gave lots of love and kept me updated throughout :)”
“Sarah was very communicative and sent lots of photos. I was also so glad my dog Nova was able to run around and play a bunch with their dog Roxy while I was away. Thanks again!”
About: Lifetime Farm Experience Growing up on a farm with five dogs, and multiple cats gave me an intuitive understanding of animal behavior and means I can handle almost anything they throw at me. A 2-Acre Private Playground & Trail Access Unlike standard suburban yards, my 2-acre property offers your dog ample space to safely run, explore, and play on a long line. Sorry still not fenced in for dogs. For high-energy breeds, I provide structured walks on scenic local trails right from the property. Constant On-Site Presence Because I work on site, your dog gets continuous companionship, supervision, and routine pot breaks. They are never left alone for long stretches. Because I work from home, pet care isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s built into my entire daily routine. Here is how guest dogs fit right into my everyday flow: Morning (7:00 AM – 9:00 AM): Fresh Air & Breakfast Your dog and I kick off the day with an early bathroom break, morning feedings, and a leisurely stroll around the property or an energizing trail walk before I start my workday. Midday (12:00 PM – 1:30 PM): Farm Play & Bathroom Breaks Since I work on site, midday is dedicated to play and outdoor time. Guest dogs get dedicated play sessions on our 2 acres, a mid-day pot break, and a chance to stretch their legs while I do afternoon farm chores. Afternoon (2:00 PM – 5:00 PM): Quiet Workday Companionship During work hours, dogs relax nearby—whether resting in the same room as me or relaxing after their afternoon play. High-energy dogs or puppies get periodic check-ins and quick breaks as needed. Evening (5:30 PM – 8:00 PM): Trail Walks, Dinner & Wind Down Once the workday ends, your dog and I head out for an evening walk along local trails or extended play in the yard. After dinner, guest dogs settle in for feeding time and cozy evening downtime. Night (9:00 PM – 10:00 PM): Final Potty Break & Bedtime A final night-out in the yard ensures everyone is comfortable and settled before heading to sleep in a secure, quiet environment. Your dog isn't just getting a place to crash—they're getting a full countryside vacation! Because I work on site, I’m around pretty much 24/7 to throw the ball, give belly rubs, and keep everyone happy. Here’s what life looks like for your pup at my place: Constant House Company: No sitting in a crate for 8 hours waiting for someone to get home. Pups hang out right next to my desk while I work, getting routine breaks and endless affection. 2 Acres of Safe, Off-Leash or Long-Line Fun: I have 2 wide-open acres of countryside to explore. Since the property is unfenced, safety is my absolute top priority—guest dogs are kept securely on long lines for sprawling fetch games, or walked on-leash unless you’ve explicitly cleared them for voice-recall off-leash play. Trail Walk Adventures: For dogs with energy to burn, I skip the boring sidewalk trots and head straight out for scenic, leashed trail walks right off the property. Farm-Savvy Supervision: Growing up around dogs and cats means reading animal body language is second nature to me. All outdoor time is 100% supervised and controlled. Your Routine, Maintained: Tailored meals, meds, bedtime quirks—whatever keeps your dog feeling secure, I stick to it. If they love crate sleeping, great! If they prefer a plush dog bed by the window, even better. Photo Updates: Expect regular photos and videos of your pup living their best farm life while you're away!
“I’ve utilized Donovan’s sitter services twice! He is amazing. When I went to pick Axel up, he just looked out the window looking like he didn’t want to leave. Donovan sent daily updates and pics. I will definitely use his service again.”
“Danielle cared for our dog River for an entire week at her house. River is a young, very high energy dog and Danielle did a great job handling him, especially with the other dogs that were staying with her. Her communication is excellent and we received pictures and texts daily. She has a beautiful, wide open space for the dogs to run off leash. I would not hesitate to leave your dog with Danielle!”

“Paige was extremely attentive towards our old cuddle bug of a cat who can’t go 10 minutes without attention! She spent extra time with her every day, always sent picture and video updates, let us know how she was doing, and even cleaned up after a bear encounter completely without being asked— major bonus points! She’ll definitely be our go-to sitter in the future.”
“Kara was a thoughtful and responsible sitter for our cats. They're a good judge if character and warmed up to her quickly, she communicated well with us, and did a good job. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone in the area.”
“Nicole was trustworthy and kind taking care of both my dog and cat. She was always prompt, reliable, and compassionate with my elder dog in her end days. Highly recommend!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely amazing experience! Very took excellent care of my dog and treated her like she was their own. Communication was great, kept me updated, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. Very reliable, caring, and professional. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have owned cats all my life and can handle the different mood swings if they have any. Up until a couple years ago, I owned a cat that was blind and deaf and learned ways to deal with the challenges that you might face. Cats have always had a special place in my heart and I am very willing to take care of yours.
“Jennifer is by far my favorite sitter I’ve booked! She went above and beyond while taking care of my sweet dog Cooper while I was away for Christmas. I would recommend her to anyone :)”
“Jaime took great care of my two cats. They can be a little skeptical of strangers but she had no trouble gaining their trust! Also very happy with the level of communication and care she took to leave the house clean. Would absolutely recommend!”
About: I have loved animals since I was a child. I have taken many college classes about animal health. My background as an EMT has equipped me to handle many animal emergencies. I have watched various animals, including snakes, cats, guinea pigs, and dogs. I ensure that cats receive the right balance of independence and affection, make sure your pet has extra treats, and provide dogs with regular exercise. I can cater to each pet's unique requirements. I promise that your baby will receive love and attention, and be well cared for with me. I work from home and can be flexible to cater to you and your pets needs. I have plenty of time to take breaks and ensure they get the attention they deserve. I prefer to watch pets in your home but can be flexible. I live near a park and have a fenced in yard to ensure animals get proper exercise.
“Emma was amazing with Howie. When looking for a sitter the first thing I look at is for experience and the photos so nothing seems alarming. When she came for a meet and greet not only was she knowledgeable but Howie also seemed to warm up to her pretty quick which I was quit surprised about. I would highly recommend Emma for anyone looking for a good sitter and a will definitely be using her in the future.”
About: I have owned and cared for cats my entire life. I am familiar with their daily care as well as administering medications. I am very comfortable doing what is needed to make sure your fur babies are happy and safe!
“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 :)”
“Faith looked after our 2 cats for 11 overnight visits. We couldn’t be happier with the care and attention she gave to our kitties! Faith was awesome with communication and responding & sent pictures daily of our kitties that helped relieve our worrying about leaving them. We would highly recommend her and definitely plan on using her in the future! Thank you so much Faith! ❤️❤️”
“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.”

About: Experience taking care of many animals including goats, chickens, horses, bunnies, pigs, guinea pigs, and dogs of all sizes! Experience with both small, large, and all dogs in between! I have been a long time user of Rover for my own dog Ham for many years! I have had such a great experience using Rover when I am traveling out of state that I want to give you and your dog that same experience whenever you need to travel and leave your dog behind. I have one dog Ham who is 9 years old and male he is neutered, up to date on all vaccines, and takes regular monthly heart worm and flea medicine. I will only accept booking that I have "Meet and Greet" to see how they get along with Ham and make sure they are comfortable and confident together. I can accept 2 dogs per night (will accommodate for repeat client) Once or twice a day walks for up to an hour (weather permitting), your dog will be comfortable, happy, and well cared for while your gone . Your dog must be dog friendly, vaccinated and flea treated. We have plenty of rooms in our house and a fenced in backyard for them to explore around. They are welcome to sleep anywhere at the house that makes them the most comfortable. I am happy to travel to meet and greet and can also do pickup at your place for a fee. Thank You, Alexandra I am self employed so I have a very flexible schedule that can be tailored around your pet. Normally I am home all day Thursday through Sunday. Dog friendly home with lots of walking paths and large fenced in backyard! Entire home is pet friendly with property close to dog parks and hiking trails. I also have a dog friendly space inside the home that can be set up to fit your dogs needs.
About: I have always been around dogs and other pets since I was a baby, and have always loved and cherished them. As an adult we have raised and taken care of three cats and dogs. While in the military for 10 years, I was responsible for taking care of many other pets, especially dogs, for other service members while they traveled or deployed. My dog Nigel and I tend to make fast friends with any other dogs we meet! I recently got out of the military, and moved back home to Vermont. I am currently not working, and will be working on online college courses from home for the foreseeable future. Therefore I have a very flexible schedule, and can make all the time necessary to keep any pets entertained and well taken care of! I have a very sweet four year old male English Cream Golden Retriever, named Nigel, who loves friends more than anything (other than treats) and will be my permanent doggie daycare assistant. We have a large 2.5 acre property that is partially fenced, with large yard space to run in, and wooded nature trails in the back for walks and lots of sniffs. We are also about 5 minutes away from a beautiful dog park and miles of nature trails that we try to go to every day.
About: I love animals so much, dogs being my favorite. I love creating a bond with them. They are Family to me. I have so much love and care to give. Friends and family can rely on me. I will take care of your furbaby as my own. I work from home and can have your doggie at my feet all day :) I can also provide many many more reviews that are not shown on rover - I am happy to share upon request I currently work part time at home. I have 2 kiddos that I drop off/pick up at school. I am flexible when it comes to accommodating to your schedule/needs. Your pup will stay at my house where he/she will receive lots of love, cuddles, be fed, let outside, and play. Did I mention cuddles? :) can’t wait! I live in a rural area away from the road. There is lots of privacy and woods around us. Lots of space to run and play both outside and in. I have a wireless collar available if that would make you feel more comfortable, it provides a specific perimeter to keep the dog from running far off. Right now I don’t use it. I will be with your dog the entire time :)
“Even though Dolores is a timid dog, Jackie always makes her feel right at home! He always sends lots of photos and videos throughout the day and Dolores comes home happy :) as always, thanks Jackie!!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a toddler. I currently have an almost 1-year old big goofy catahoula leopard/pitbull mix. I routinely dog sit for extended family and I have fostered for a local dog rescue. One of my favorite activities is taking a dog for a nice neighborhood walk or an active hike. If your dog comes here for a stay, they are treated as a member of the family. They’re welcome to lounge on the couch and we even love to bring them on outings with us if your dog would enjoy it. I’m a full time mom so I have a fairly flexible schedule for adding in dog walks. If your dog is ok with kiddos joining, I can be even more accommodating. I currently have a puppy who could accompany me on walks or drop-ins if you think your dog could benefit from seeing a play buddy. If not, I can do some quality 1:1 time with your pooch.
“So grateful to find Michele on here who has been able to accommodate my last-minute request for dog care after I was injured and needed help with my pup. Her calm demeanor and confidence put me at ease leaving him with a stranger, and she kept me posted during the day. Happy to wholeheartedly recommend!”
“Chad has been taking care of Aspen since she was about 4 or 5 months old. He has worked with her and myself on her reactivity and meeting other dogs and strangers. I believe he saved my dog and I. I wouldn't trust anyone else with her. I followed him to Rover from the daycare he essentially started and was forced to shut down. And I will follow him when he starts his own. He is trustworthy, reliable, kind, compassionate and SO intelligent and well educated on dog behavior and body language. Aspen loves her days with Chad and she is wiped out until the next day!”
“Pete and Alex were so wonderful! They took great care of our 6-month-old puppy Juniper. She got lots of exercise with them and came home happy and tired! We would absolutely book with them again!”
“John is more than amazing. He is so caring, loving and kind to our Pup. Milkyway is so happy when we leave him and the entire family makes pup feel at home. I knew the first time I met John and his family they were an excellent choice. They treat pup as if he is one of their very own furr babies. I highly recommend John. Don’t think twice, contact John for his services.”
“I highly recommend Katie! Very easygoing and I felt comfortable leaving my Chewbear with her. She was flexible with my time period and I did not feel rushed. If I had more energy I would have done more. Katie was very responsive to my texts and I even got a "report card" letting me know more about his time there. So nice to have peace of mind for your animal with severe separation anxiety. She is a godsend. Would definitely let Chewy visit again. Thank you Katie!”
About: I have been an animal lover and owner for over 30 years. My 15 year old Lab is truly my best friend. He is used to other animals and very laid back. I provide lots of patience, affection and exercise for all animals. We go out 3-4 times per day for walks and potty breaks. Always active and attentive. Please let me know about anything your pet needs to feel safe and happy. The more information the better. I can handle separation anxiety and other behavioral issues but prefer to know ahead of time. Please make sure your pet is treated for fleas/ticks. If your baby has a history of indoor urination, please provide diapers/belly bands. Happy to accommodate all ages and stages. I truly enjoy the company of animals and also like to walk often. Being in the park and exercising helps lift my spirits. My dog has improved my life in many ways and he makes me a better human. Pets are given a cool, calm and comfy environment. Plenty of walks and free access to filtered water. (Treats also, if owners request/permit). I am almost obsessively neat and always treat my customers’ homes with respect. My goal is to be as unobtrusive as possible. Scrupulous about keeping your home secure while you are away. I ask that you leave clear and detailed instructions to maintain a safe & secure home. Also, for long term services, I do not mind bringing in mail, putting trash/recycle bins out.
About: Long story short: I have YEARS of experience and a deep love of all animals! I'm great with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities! Happy to walk them all! Must be kid and puppy friendly if sitting happens in my home. I am also great with cats for in-your-home pet-sitting or drop in visits! The Long Version: I've had dogs in my home since I was a kid. I also have experience with cats, as we had cats first when I was younger, and at one point had multiple cats in the home at once...and also had two cats and two dogs at one time. In college I volunteered at a local rescue and walked dogs of all sizes and personalities several days a week. I ended up adopting one of those dogs, and had her from the age of about 4, until her passing a couple years ago at around age 15. She was an absolute love, but she also could be very reactive on walks/ in public. She was extremely particular about which dogs she approved and even when she found one she'd be okay with, she often took quite a careful, long introduction to make it work. We went through behavioral training and made some progress, and I was able to take her on many adventures, even despite her still being a bit reactive. I learned a lot about dog behavior and socialization with her. Over the years we also rehab'd an ACL injury and recovery, and had to make life/ home/ meds modifications as she got older and needed some more senior dog TLC. I am happy to visit/ walk any dogs, behavioral "quirks" and all, as long as I know about their strengths, challenges, and how to support them, in advance. For boarding/ any care within my own home, I am only able to accept dogs that are excellent with young children and puppies. I have two dog-loving kids under age 5, and we have a super sweet lab puppy, so she is currently small, but growing fast! I'm a teacher, so my schedule varies based on the time of year! During the school year: I can do weekend walks, or dog sitting, ideally at my home, through the weekend. During the summer months: My schedule is flexible! I'm happy to do quick potty breaks for pups during the day, regular walks, filling in for random days if you have to work longer than usual, boarding/ dog sitting (again, ideally at my home since I have two little kids and my own puppy). I've always loved my pets as members of the family and I will give your pet all the love and care that I'd give my own! I am happy to follow any pre-established expectations and appreciate knowing anything that's going to help make my time with your pet as comfortable and fun for them as possible in your absence. I also love capturing adorable pictures of animals lounging, playing, etc. so I will definitely send pics during / after my visit if you want them! We allow our puppy on furniture, but I will of course follow any rules/ standard expectations that you have established for your pets and/or your home.
“My Inuka had a wonderful day - played with Echo and came home tired and happy. Jacob was so kind and accomodating when I dropped my baby off at 6AM. Really grateful for the warm care.”
“Belle première expérience avec Linda! Très gentille, attentionnée avec notre chiot. Il a pu jouer dehors et se dépenser. On a senti qu’on pouvait lui faire confiance. On est très satisfaits!”
“We wanted to spend a day in Burlington but knew our non-dog-loving-dog would have a hard time. Catherine and her husband really helped us out. Charley had a great time hanging out with her, playing with the toys she had, enjoying yummy treats, and going on a walk. I returned to a happy dog. She opened our eyes to what travel with a sometimes challenging dog can be. Yay!”

Because I work on site, I’m around pretty much 24/7 to throw the ball, give belly rubs, and keep everyone happy. Here’s what life looks like for your pup at my place: Constant House Company: No sitting in a crate for 8 hours waiting for someone to get home. Pups hang out right next to my desk while I work, getting routine breaks and endless affection. 2 Acres of Safe, Off-Leash or Long-Line Fun: I have 2 wide-open acres of countryside to explore. Since the property is unfenced, safety is my absolute top priority—guest dogs are kept securely on long lines for sprawling fetch games, or walked on-leash unless you’ve explicitly cleared them for voice-recall off-leash play. Trail Walk Adventures: For dogs with energy to burn, I skip the boring sidewalk trots and head straight out for scenic, leashed trail walks right off the property. Farm-Savvy Supervision: Growing up around dogs and cats means reading animal body language is second nature to me. All outdoor time is 100% supervised and controlled. Your Routine, Maintained: Tailored meals, meds, bedtime quirks—whatever keeps your dog feeling secure, I stick to it. If they love crate sleeping, great! If they prefer a plush dog bed by the window, even better. Photo Updates: Expect regular photos and videos of your pup living their best farm life while you're away!
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!
“Louis & Haley put Archie at ease right away with their calm, welcoming manner. It was his first visit and I left him for 3.5 hours. He was calm and happy when I picked him up. I know he would be happy to go back and hang with them again.”
“Danielle was amazing! Her little spot for furry friends was fantastic. We got our new pup in October and wanted some support during the days we were skiing in VT. Our Piper had the most amazing time. She was excited to go each day and came home tired and happy. We would definitely hook again when in the area.”

Enseignante, du temps pour vos vacances estivales. Fin de semaine jamais sans mes chiens. Meilleur passe-temps, les longues promenades avec les chiens. Sentier à proximité.

“I will definitely be using Alexandra again and again! She took so much care to ensure my dog was taken care of. She was very communicative and sent pictures each day that made me smile and made me feel confident that my dog was in good hands. She took my dog for nice long walks each day, and played with her and gave her lots of love. Very grateful that I found Alexandra - she's the best.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. I currently have three four legged babes. Two 13 year old rescues and one 4 year old farm dog. I currently have Mondays and Tuesdays off from my full time job so I’m available for drop in care and walks. Available for overnight care Monday only. I only provide service at the client’s home. Feedings, walks, potty breaks, and giving medications is all within the realm of what I can easily handle.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every dog as an individual. I take the time to learn each dog's personality, routine, and boundaries so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes—from miniature Dachshunds to Great Danes—and understand that every breed and temperament has unique needs. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks or prefers a slower pace and extra reassurance, I'm happy to tailor my care to them. I'm patient, detail-oriented, and reliable. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any training routines you'd like maintained. I'm also comfortable with puppies who are still learning good habits, as well as senior dogs who may need a gentler approach, extra patience, or special accommodations. Above all, I treat every dog like they're my own—with kindness, respect, and lots of love. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease, knowing they're in caring and capable hands. I'm currently studying for my board exam to become a certified Physician Assistant, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time to dog walking throughout the week. Because I can plan my study schedule around appointments, I'm able to accommodate a variety of walking times, including weekdays and many weekends. I enjoy being active, and spending time with dogs is a great balance to studying. I take pride in being reliable, punctual, and making sure each walk is a fun, safe, and enriching experience. Whether your dog needs a quick midday potty break or a longer walk to burn off energy, I'm committed to providing dependable care and giving them the attention they deserve. When walking dogs, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. Before every walk, I make sure collars or harnesses are fitted securely and take the time to understand each dog's personality, energy level, and any specific instructions from their owner. During our walks, I pay close attention to my surroundings and your dog's body language to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. Whether your dog enjoys an active walk or prefers a slower, more relaxed pace, I'm happy to adjust to their needs. I always respect leash etiquette, avoid situations that may cause unnecessary stress, and make sure your pet has access to water if needed. If I'm caring for your dog in your home before or after a walk, I'll treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect. I'll follow all care instructions carefully, make sure your dog is settled before I leave, and can provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make every walk a positive, enriching experience that keeps your dog happy, healthy, and excited for our next adventure together.
About: I’ve been taking care of all sorts of animals since I was young. Walking, training and feeding dogs… scooping litter boxes, feeding and playing with cats… almost anything you can imagine when it comes to pet care! I’ve handled young puppies all the way to senior dogs (and kittens to cats as well). I’ve learned how to potty train and administer medication to the pets who need it. I’m currently looking for some extra work to save up for a place of my own. At the moment, I work morning shifts (5-12). Im looking for afternoon or overnight shifts! This could include walking, feeding, or a play and potty break! Pets in my house are treated with the most love and care I can provide. Lots of playtime and sometimes naps when both needed. I’m confident in my ability to handle anything needed from my clients and to take care of your animals as if they were my own. While your pets are in my care, they will be the center of my attention, and will get lots of walks and playtime, and for senior dogs, lots of belly rubs.
About: As a pet owner myself, I want to ensure that your furry friends are getting the exercise, love, and attention they deserve; giving you that peace of mind. If your dog is more of a laid back type or a always on the go mover (This is my dog everyday) I am here for it all!! I believe that communication is key to prevent misunderstandings and lead to a good experience for you and your dog. I am currently working full time as an engineer, but have a lot of flexibility in my job and I am available more during weekends. At your home, I can run a routine that you want in the environment that they know. If there's a walking spot you normally go to or certain toys they play with, then it will be easy to accommodate. familiar places can put your furry friend at ease while you are away
About: I have experience working in a doggie daycare setting. I have experienced many dogs of many breeds and followed instructions for each individual dog needs. I have also handled dogs from mild manner to dogs with bigger personalities. Schedules are set daily/weekly/monthly depending on the needs. I offer pet care, pee/exercise breaks to pet sitting so will work with each need that arises to best support the dog and their owners. I do not offer pet care in my home. I will gladly communicate with the owner to accommodate the needs of your pet while taking care of them for you.
“Gabrielle is kind, reliable, communicative and clearly has a natural way with dogs. My dog felt comfortable with her right away, which says something because he can be wary of new people. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. Gabrielle went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. At the end, my dog wanted to stay with her…the ultimate endorsement!”
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and would love to be a companion for your pets! Young to senior, low to high energy I’m there! I also have experience with reactive dogs, as my girl Olive is still finding her confidence as a previous stray and working on her leash reactivity! I work full time as a registered nurse and have every Monday off and then every other week off. I’m pretty flexible! Let me know what you need! Although I can’t care for your pets in my home, I can offer dog-walking, drop in playtime/hangouts, enrichment games and even take your pup hiking if you’d like!
About: I’ve been an animal lover ever since I was younger. I grew up with cats which is where my love for animals began. The independence of cats but also the big role they play in a family is what makes them amazing. They each have their own personality which I enjoy seeing come out. When I moved back home I lived in a house with no animals which is what got me into fostering. I fostered a dog for a year. By the time that year mark hit I decided he was meant to be with me, so now I’m a proud dog mom. I couldn’t imagine living in a home without a pet. I have experience with administering medicine, training and dog introductions. I love to bring dogs on adventures outside. My dog is trained off leash and prefers that when in an area where it is allowed. I am currently a bartender. This means I work late hours, normally from 4:30-9pm. Please note that night time walks would not happen until 9:00-9:30pm Tuesdays and Thursdays-Saturdays. I am looking for both long-term set schedules and anything in between. I have a yard that my dogs love to just hang out and smell all the smells. We also love adventuring on local trails in the area.
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.

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.

“Alexandra watched my baby Riley when we went on vacation for a week and she was absolutely wonderful. Her and her dog Hamspoiled Riley. They went for walks daily. Riley really enjoyed her time with them. She kept me updated with little notes and pictures that made me feel that my baby girl was safe and being loved. I highly recommend her. She would be my first choice next time I go on vacation.”
“John was a fantastic sitter for our very energetic puppy. He provided us with updates multiple times a day and took great care of her. It was so nice to know our little pup was in great hands and had John’s own dogs to play with.”
“Hanna and her family took wonderful care of my pup, Scout, for a few days and overnights. I received daily updates along with pictures, which gave me such peace of mind. When I picked Scout up, she was excited to see me but clearly very comfortable in their home. I’ll definitely be using Hanna and her family again in the future. Thank you so much, Hanna — Scout says hello! 🐾”
“Peter was terrific! At drop off, he took time to understand our senior dog and her routines. He sent us a picture and update the next morning. She ate all her meals at Peter’s house (which she rarely does at home) so I know she was relaxed with him. At pick up, she made a point to go over and lean into him to say goodbye! Overall a great experience - thanks Peter!”
“Catherine was an amazing pet sitter! Joey had a great time with her, and I loved receiving lots of photos and videos while I was away. I honestly think Joey enjoyed his time with her just as much as she enjoyed having him. Catherine was flexible, responded promptly to messages, and made the whole experience stress-free. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Gabby provided. I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and loving to take care of their furry family member. Gabby is incredibly kind, friendly, and easy to communicate with. She sent me daily photos and updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing my puppy was happy and well cared for. I would absolutely trust Gabby with my dog again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my little one!☺️”
“Laura took great care of my dog. I could tell my golden enjoyed her stay there and got plenty of attention and exercise. Laura was attentive to her needs and I know my dog would be excited to go back again. Thanks Laura!”
“We couldn’t ask for a better experience with Chad. Our family stayed in Smugglers’ Notch/Stowe area and our resort (if you do timeshare, you understand) doesn’t allow pets. We still wanted our dog close and finding Chad is awesome. He took the time to discuss ahead of boarding all necessary details about Pakun. He even asked for written notes and sent daily pictures and videos. We are kept updated especially with important details about our dog’s behavior. We could tell our Pakun was treated so well. Our English Springer’s hair was not tangled and he was clean when we picked him up. It is hard to believe since our dog has videos of walks, playing in the park and playdates with other dogs,he even did enrichment activities. Our dog is used to group boarding when we go on vacation, he usually comes back smelly and all tangled up. We are so pleased with our experience this time and we are so glad we brought him to have his own vacation with Chad.”
“Simply amazing! Rushi sent cute photos and updates to put my mind at ease - Alan had a blast with her family and sweet little toddler. They took him on walks, gave lots of love and kept me updated throughout :)”
“Sarah was very communicative and sent lots of photos. I was also so glad my dog Nova was able to run around and play a bunch with their dog Roxy while I was away. Thanks again!”
About: Lifetime Farm Experience Growing up on a farm with five dogs, and multiple cats gave me an intuitive understanding of animal behavior and means I can handle almost anything they throw at me. A 2-Acre Private Playground & Trail Access Unlike standard suburban yards, my 2-acre property offers your dog ample space to safely run, explore, and play on a long line. Sorry still not fenced in for dogs. For high-energy breeds, I provide structured walks on scenic local trails right from the property. Constant On-Site Presence Because I work on site, your dog gets continuous companionship, supervision, and routine pot breaks. They are never left alone for long stretches. Because I work from home, pet care isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s built into my entire daily routine. Here is how guest dogs fit right into my everyday flow: Morning (7:00 AM – 9:00 AM): Fresh Air & Breakfast Your dog and I kick off the day with an early bathroom break, morning feedings, and a leisurely stroll around the property or an energizing trail walk before I start my workday. Midday (12:00 PM – 1:30 PM): Farm Play & Bathroom Breaks Since I work on site, midday is dedicated to play and outdoor time. Guest dogs get dedicated play sessions on our 2 acres, a mid-day pot break, and a chance to stretch their legs while I do afternoon farm chores. Afternoon (2:00 PM – 5:00 PM): Quiet Workday Companionship During work hours, dogs relax nearby—whether resting in the same room as me or relaxing after their afternoon play. High-energy dogs or puppies get periodic check-ins and quick breaks as needed. Evening (5:30 PM – 8:00 PM): Trail Walks, Dinner & Wind Down Once the workday ends, your dog and I head out for an evening walk along local trails or extended play in the yard. After dinner, guest dogs settle in for feeding time and cozy evening downtime. Night (9:00 PM – 10:00 PM): Final Potty Break & Bedtime A final night-out in the yard ensures everyone is comfortable and settled before heading to sleep in a secure, quiet environment. Your dog isn't just getting a place to crash—they're getting a full countryside vacation! Because I work on site, I’m around pretty much 24/7 to throw the ball, give belly rubs, and keep everyone happy. Here’s what life looks like for your pup at my place: Constant House Company: No sitting in a crate for 8 hours waiting for someone to get home. Pups hang out right next to my desk while I work, getting routine breaks and endless affection. 2 Acres of Safe, Off-Leash or Long-Line Fun: I have 2 wide-open acres of countryside to explore. Since the property is unfenced, safety is my absolute top priority—guest dogs are kept securely on long lines for sprawling fetch games, or walked on-leash unless you’ve explicitly cleared them for voice-recall off-leash play. Trail Walk Adventures: For dogs with energy to burn, I skip the boring sidewalk trots and head straight out for scenic, leashed trail walks right off the property. Farm-Savvy Supervision: Growing up around dogs and cats means reading animal body language is second nature to me. All outdoor time is 100% supervised and controlled. Your Routine, Maintained: Tailored meals, meds, bedtime quirks—whatever keeps your dog feeling secure, I stick to it. If they love crate sleeping, great! If they prefer a plush dog bed by the window, even better. Photo Updates: Expect regular photos and videos of your pup living their best farm life while you're away!
“I’ve utilized Donovan’s sitter services twice! He is amazing. When I went to pick Axel up, he just looked out the window looking like he didn’t want to leave. Donovan sent daily updates and pics. I will definitely use his service again.”
“Danielle cared for our dog River for an entire week at her house. River is a young, very high energy dog and Danielle did a great job handling him, especially with the other dogs that were staying with her. Her communication is excellent and we received pictures and texts daily. She has a beautiful, wide open space for the dogs to run off leash. I would not hesitate to leave your dog with Danielle!”
“First time using rover and Pete and Alex were awesome! Pete and Alex are so sweet and took great care of Billie. I’m sure Billie loved the huge yard and comfy home as well as their playful pup Hank:) Will definitely have Billie stay there again in the future!”
“Hannah was so kind and sweet with Bowie. I can tell that she really loves animals. He had a wonderful time, and we felt great knowing that he was with someone that really made sure he felt safe and cared for.”
