Pet Sitting in Vineyard Haven

“I really appreciated Eva’s flexibility when we needed someone to check in our dog during our MV vacation. She came a day before our service date to meet us and Luna, who was instantly comfortable with her. She (and her daughter) went above and beyond to meet our needs and in communicating with us. I would definitely use them again in a future trip to the island.”

“Mikayla was so great with my cat and I'm really happy to have found her! She reached out immediately when I needed a sitter on short notice and was so communicative and dependable while I was away it was a massive relief! She checked in regularly, found and checked in with my super shy cat like clockwork and everything cat related was spotless when I got home. She will be my go-to sitter from now on!”

About: I have been working part time at the vets office for two years, taking care of boarded animals. I see a large variety of pets weekly, as I am a kennel attendant. I meet dogs and cats of all ages and breeds all the time. I have always had a special connection with animals. I stopped eating meat when I was six years old because I learned the chickens on the farm were what chicken nuggets are made of. I’ve grown up helping out at farms, as I’ve always had a drive to help animals to the best of my ability. I’ve been watching pets for the past three years and I have never met a dog that didn’t end up liking me by the end of the day! My entire life is based around animals, as I have my own pets and I’m a full-time pet sitter. I truly spend more time with pets than people, and I enjoy it. I take great pride in caring for pets, whether in my own home or others'. I go above and beyond to ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable, providing them with personalized attention and care. From maintaining their routines to offering plenty of playtime and cuddles, I make sure their environment is stress-free and enjoyable. Whether it's administering medications or ensuring they have all the comforts they need, I treat each pet as if they were my own, always striving to exceed expectations! I do not take any dogs with even the slightest aggression towards other animals into my home.

“Meredith took excellent care of my cat, Indy while I was away! She sent many pictures and I could tell he warmed up to her. I would definitely ask her to petsit again.”

“Barry was excellent to work with. Friendly, responsive, and the dogs loved him. I would happily use his services again in the future and can't recommend him enough.”

About: I’ve taken care of Bernese mountain dogs my entire life, love walking and love walking dogs even more! Huge fan of all breeds and experienced boarding friends and family members dogs. Knowledgable of bondsing with dogs and light training. I work from home so have plenty of time to walk, pet, feed and let out dogs between meetings into the yard. Have plenty of experience with wild dogs, old lazy ones and scared dogs, too. I have a fenced yard and constantly check on dogs even just to pet them because how could you not want to. Have crates and plenty of treats, bowls and dog supplies

About: I have periodically taken care of pets all of my life. A roommate of mine had a lab, Lola, and we lived together for 3 years. I knew her from when she was a puppy. I also have other friends now who have dogs and I often care for them. My partner's family also has a scottie, and my relatives have both doodles and labs that I take care of often. I just left my corporate job and am taking some time off while I study for both my school teaching and pilates teaching certification exams. I mostly have an open schedule. Happy to follow whatever environment you wish for your pet. I am careful about closing doors slowly/not opening them all the way/not leaving them open to ensure security.

“Megan was great! Timely & I’m super appreciative of the pictures she took while with my pup!”

About: I bring high-energy, all-terrain enthusiasm to every pet I care for! Whether I’m biking, swimming, running, walking, rollerblading, or scootering, I stay active so your dog can too. I’ve worked with pups of all ages—from playful puppies to mellow seniors—and tailor each walk or visit to fit their pace and personality. Pets aren’t just cared for, they’re engaged and uplifted. Let’s turn walk time into mission time! I work from home full-time, which means I’m always nearby and flexible. Pet care fits naturally into my day—I schedule walks, playtime, and snuggles around my work. I treat every pet like family—whether they're with me or I'm visiting their home. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and two friendly dogs for social play. I follow any special instructions you provide and can crate your pup if needed. Clean spaces, constant supervision, and a whole lot of love ensure your pet’s comfort and security.

About: I have owned dogs for my entire life, and have experience training puppies and caring for elderly dogs. I have also babysat or made house visits for other dogs frequently. I am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. I would be able to do morning house visits or walks (ending at 11am) on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. I will be available any time on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, granted I have a weeks notice. I am willing to adapt to any caretaking rules you may have in place for your dog at your own home (i.e. the rooms they are allowed in, outside time, etc). I can stay with the dog for as long as you need me to as long as there is communication.

About: I work for a dog walking/sitting service during the summers away from school, which gave me experience in boarding, walking, sitting, etc. I have experience with reactive dogs, senior dogs, anxious dogs, puppies, etc. I fostered a very traumatized and anxious dog for 4 months whom I loved! I love all kinds of pets, especially large dogs!! I grew up with a dog and have been a huge animal lover ever since! I am a rising senior at the College of Charleston, with a pretty flexible schedule. I am studying communications and studio arts. I love animals, photography, and going on walks. I live downtown and very close to campus, so even when I do have class I’m only a 5 minute walk from my house! I am able to watch your animal at my home or yours. I am available to walk the dog and spend active time if preferred! I have my own, large, bedroom in my home with a direct door to outside, which makes boarding comfortable and convenient for the pup!

About: I’m a lifetime lover of dogs and am excited to walk or watch yours! I have over 10 years of experience as a dog owner and walker/sitter of dogs. I’ve walked and watched dogs of various breeds and ages, ranging from 2 year old golden retrievers to 8 year old corgis. I’m ready to tailor my services to you and your dogs’ needs to ensure a personalized, exceptional experience. I’m currently available for pet walking or drop-in visits 7 days/week, morning, afternoon, and night. Please schedule bookings at least one day in advance to ensure I can prioritize and adequately prepare for your dog’s walk or drop-in. My priority is ensuring your dog is comfortable and cared for, and my attention to detail and years of experience will ensure your personalized needs are met.

About: Pet care has always been a part of my life. I’ve raised and cared for dogs, cats, birds, and fish—from puppies and kittens to older pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I’ve experienced every stage of an animal’s life, so I know how to give the right kind of care, whether that means playtime, training support, or simply quiet companionship. What makes my service unique is that it’s a team effort—my girlfriend, Laurel, and I work together to provide care. She’s just as passionate and experienced with animals, so your pet gets the attention of two loving and responsible sitters. We love going on walks in the woods and beach right next to our house, keeping pets active and happy, and making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of our daily routine. I work remotely from home, which gives me the flexibility to be present and attentive throughout the day. My girlfriend is also free for the summer, so between the two of us, your pet will have round-the-clock care and company. We truly enjoy being around animals—walks, playtime, chilling, we love to do it all! Caring for pets isn’t something we squeeze into our day—it is our day, and we love every minute of it! In our home, pets have plenty of space to feel comfortable and safe. We live in a large house with lots of room to play and relax, and we also have a fenced-in area in the yard where dogs can enjoy outdoor time securely. Whether it’s indoor cuddles or supervised play outside, we make sure pets get a great mix of exercise, attention, and rest. We keep a calm, pet-friendly environment and follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, walk times, and any special care instructions. Our goal is to make them feel right at home, whether they’re staying with us or we’re visiting them in theirs.

“Darla has been great helping checking on my dog Cody while I’m at work. She sincerely cares about him and that he doesn’t get overheated and gets his water the way he likes it! I think they just get each other! I hope she can continue helping out when she can.”

About: I love dogs! I've have had a variety of different dogs since I was little from your everyday Golden Retriever to a pure mutt. I have experience with high energy dogs, aggressive and even anxious dogs. I currently live with two dogs, a two year old Australian shepherd and a five year old Whippet/collie mix. I am able to give dogs any level of exercise both mentally and physically and if you have any training questions or concerns I'd be happy to assist you.

About: I’ve taken care of friends and families animals since I was old enough. I grew up with animals constantly around. I have experience with senior dogs and dogs that have medical needs. I am very flexible during the week mon-fri, and the occasional Saturday. I am unavailable Sundays. I am an early riser so I could always do early morning visits and walks I would prefer to care for pets in their home or outside. For the right fit with my own dog I would be happy to have play dates in my large yard which is set back off a quiet dirt road

“Morgan is a great communicator! She kept us up to date on her schedule and made sure our dog was well taken care of while we went out to dinner. I'd certainly recommend her!”
