“5 Stars – Wonderful Dog Sitter! I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. Chad was incredibly attentive, responsible, and clearly has a real love for animals. They kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind. Thank you!”


“Beyond impressed with Hailey’s professionalism. She always arrived when asked and made sure to spend every minute of her visit keeping our boy busy or giving him love. Highly recommend! We came home to a very tired and happy boy”


About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting and had my own dog for many years. Now, I have experience from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays, with many different types of needs. I’m dedicated to caring for a pet the same way their owner would and look forward to spending time with animals. I work from home most days and can accommodate a flexible potty schedule and activity level. I enjoy taking breaks to spend with pets, to get outside or tuck in on the sofa! I have an enclosed garden and large, unfenced yard. We are well back from the main road so pets are welcome to explore the neighborhood.

“Dana is kind and professional. She took great care of my little kitty. It is clear she cares about the animals and enjoys her work. I felt comfortable with her coming into my home when I was on vacation. The best part is the pictures she will send you every day!”


About: I grew up with litters of German Shepherd puppies which sparked my lifelong love of animals. As adult, I raised and bred Labrador Retrievers. I now share my home with five cats, two Labs and six chickens. I'm also a proud grandparent to two wonderful grandchildren. Retired and living in Vermont. I'm recently retired and spending my time doing what I love most. Beling arond animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing and simply keeping pets company. If you ever need a little help with your furry friend whether it's a walk, some playtime, or just a visit while you're out. I can take them to the dog parks or to the waling paths.

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!

“Marielle is an EXCEPTIONAL dog sitter! She helped us out for 4 days in a row with our rambunctious, challenging, high-energy, relentlessly driven almost 6 mo Australian Shepherd. The weather was horribly uncooperative - freezing, raining, windy, muddy and ongoing for all but 1 day. Marielle showed up on time very early in the morning with an enthusiastic greeting to my pup and no matter how many instructions I may have burdened her with, she took everything in with a smile. She is highly knowledgeable about dogs of all ages, patient, kind and energetic. She took my dog out for hours in all conditions without complaint! Our cabin was tiny, and she came for 4 -5 hour drop in visits. She is very comfortable to be around and my dog loved her! What more could you ask for?? Highly recommend!”


About: I grew up with yellow labs and helped raise multiple litters of puppies with my family. I’ve taken care of friend’s pets, but nothing formal. I’ve had my current dog for 3 years and want to expand my love of dogs to yours as well! I love to be active and will take your dog on a run/hike or just cuddle up with them on the couch. I work in a school - currently on summer break so very flexible. Come mid August I will only be available outside of school hours. Every pet and home is different. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine similar to normal and will follow your lead on what you want things to look like day to day. I always walk dogs with a leash.

About: I have experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! I have been caring for a wide range of pets since I was young. I have an older dog with many quirks and particular needs so I understand how important it is to meet your dog's needs as an individual. Currently, I am a recent college grad looking to fill out my summer and make some extra cash. Outside of typical dog/cat experience, I also have experience with farm animals such as alpacas, llamas, sheep, goats, and more. I am also experienced with positive reinforcement training and bird handling. As a recent college grad, I am spending this summer working part-time, along with doing pet care when I can. Overall, my schedule is pretty flexible! Your pet's safety is ALWAYS a priority. To create a safe and trustworthy environment for your animals I will listen to you closely about your pet's past and behavior. As someone with zoo/farm experience, I understand the importance of always being aware and attentive to both your pet's behavior and my own. Bonding and building a relationship with your pet so they feel secure and comfortable with me is another top priority!

“Katie was super professional and had a great energy with the dogs. She checked on my old man and let him out to pee, was right on time, and sent updates. Will definitely be booking her again!”


About: I have had pets and cared for family/neighbor pets my entire life. I have experience with training, have a great set of communication skills with pets, and easily build trust through respect and loving care. I am a long time Vermont home owner and AirBnb host, a mom to 4 grown children, and active in community service. I can be trusted, am clean and respectful of family homes! I currently am self employed with a flexible schedule and availability, all days of the week and overnights. My children are grown, so I don't have any pressing scheduling needs. Part of my work is specializing in a healing modality, so I have an intuitive and responsive style with pet care. I take the time to understand what will make you and your pet most comfortable while you are away and pay close attention to details that will make your pet feel the most secure and cared for.

“Rebecca is a kind sitter who took thoughtful care of our two girls! One of our cats is very shy, and she did a great job of respecting her space while keeping an eye on her and giving her a chance to socialize at her own pace. Our other cat is very social and took an immediate shine to Rebecca at the meet and greet, and while she was happy to see us we could tell she hadn't missed us too much due to Rebecca's attention. Rebecca sends along thorough updates that include how they're doing with their physical and emotional needs, and you can tell in the photos the cats feel comfortable in her presence. Overall we were very pleased with her services and will definitely book again in the future!”



“This was our first time using Will’s services and we’ll definitely have him back! He kept our puppy entertained and safe while we had to be out for a few hours and was very flexible with timing. Thank you!”


“It was great having Sarah watch our dog, he really seemed to enjoy her visits! She was incredibly accommodating and kind. We've already passed her contact info to friends looking for dog sitters!”


“First time using App. Whitney was prompt in her response and arrival time. Sent photos and text before leaving to ask if there was anything else that needed to be done. All around a great experience”


About: My parents bred our labs a couple of times when I was a kid, so puppies and dogs have always been in my life. In college I bought my own puppy and had her for a wonderful almost 10 years. She was my best friend and I talked to her and kissed her all of the time. She made me feel happy when my days were gray. Since then I’ve dog sat for multiple families and borrow my friends’ dogs to go for walks and adventures since I no longer have a pup of my own. I work three 12 hour shifts a week so I would love to spend my free days with dogs. I’ve watched my friends dogs even on work days because I work 7a-7 p so I can be there for breakfast and dinner. Most of the time I’ve stayed in their homes so that the dog feels most comfortable. I have no other pets in my home and your pup will get all the belly rubs and scratching they need. I love to go for walks and be active with the dogs (of course only if they’re capable)

“We were gone for a week and Janhavi took good care of our two cats during our trip, including taking out the bin and bringing it back. While she did come every day, she forgot to check in and check out for every visit.”

Janice C.
“Janice is absolutely amazing with animals. She has such a caring heart and a natural gift for connecting with all animals —dogs, cats, chickens, even goats—you name it. I have seen personally her passion and caring nature when around animals. Janice is definitely your person if you’re looking for someone to take your dog/dogs for walks, playing ball with them, or simply giving them the love and attention they deserve. She’s even raised five litters of Labs in her house, ensuring each puppy found a safe and loving home. With plans to start breeding again next spring, there's no doubt those animals will be just as well cared for. Janice is a wonderful human being who brings joy, kindness, and a deep sense of connection to every animal she meets.”
