“Lika did an incredible job. She frequently kept us updated on how Nala was doing and sent plenty of pictures and videos. We felt that Nala was well looked after which made it much easier to relax on our trip!”


“Barbara and Darryll are amazing!! Our Mozzy was so happy and well cared for while he stayed with them. They were quick to respond and respectful of our rules. Mozzy came home even better behaved than he had been! We are so grateful to them. It is good to know we have a great place for Mozzy to stay if we need to go out of town.”


“Shannon was amazing with our pup! She clearly loves animals and made sure to ask about our dog’s needs and preferences. Even with a personal emergency, she communicated and made sure everything worked out. Would happily book her again!”



“It was a blessing to have found Gwynn to babysit our precious fur baby. Shadow is a very picky dog and from the first day we did a meet and greet we knew Shadow would be in great hands. Not only is Gwynn compassionate and genuinely a caring person, but her fur baby Meatball welcomed Shadow into her house with open paws. Gwynn sent us videos, pictures, and daily updates which made us very happy to see how well Shadow was doing. When we came to pick her up she was very upset to leave Gwynn and Meatball because she was having the time of her life. Overall, we're very happy to have a reliable, caring, and overall amazing person as a sitter for our Shadow.”


“Amazing as always! And our puppy intro of Kiva is going perfectly! I can't wait for her to start :) Although I need to run it by Bagheera as she will be crashing his party!!!”


“My dogs are use to structure and I chose her because of her profile stating trainer experience. She was a amazing care giver. She kept us posted with pictures and communicated very well. The dogs seem very at ease when I brought them home. Also I was nervous because this is my first time using rover she provided me with a great experience. She has earned a repeat customer. Thank you for taking great care of them.”


“I picked up a happy pup after a stay with Eddie and Rene. Eddie took Charlie on walks, hikes, and to the local parks. He has two other dogs who got along well with Charlie. Eddie is quick to respond to texts and sends pictures along. We will have Charlie stay with Eddie and Rene again. Thank you !”


About: I have cared for dogs from puppies to senior pups. I have taken care of family pets for family and for friends. I have also cat sat for many of my friends and family. I am done with work around 5pm so there is plenty of daylight to get in a good walk for your dog or a good game of fetch! I currently care for our 3 dogs with multiple walks through the day and hikes when time allows. Also I play with the cat atleast once a day

“Many thanks to Hannah for taking care of our dog on short notice! Was responsive and kept in communication during our dogs stay, and made sure to hang out with him. Would recommend Hannah to anyone!”



“Piper was absolutely wonderful! We were super hesitant to leave our boy with someone we didn’t know but after meeting her and seeing how attentive, and caring she already was - it was easy! I was sent so many photos/updates on how he was doing, and she was able to sneak in a pup photo shoot for us last minute! Our boy seemed to not even want to go home after his stay lol. Safe to say we will be absolutely be using Piper’s services for the future ?”


“Julia was an excellent match for our two dogs for overnights. Large running and playing area and she took them for lots of walks. They obviously felt comfortable with her right away. Julia is an experienced dog professional and exudes the confidence and technique theater goes along with that. We will definitely call upon her again for dog care.”


“Nina was awesome! My dog Mattis had a great boarding experience. I felt 100% comfortable knowing that Nina was taking such good care of my boy. Not only would I recommend Nina to others but will be asking her to sit for Mattis again soon.”


“Julia was great at communicating, and drop off and pickup was easy. Her home is clean and contains a safe gated outside area. I had booked a single day to see how my dog would manage in a new location. While the location was beautiful, there were too many deers for my high prey drive dog. Regardless, my dog had a great time with Julia at the beach and came home happy and tired. I’m really grateful for Julia’s honesty about my dog’s inability to relax at the house due to deer. It wasn’t the best environment for my dog, but I could tell that Julia made sure to make the best of the day for Lizzy and she really values the comfort and safety of dogs above all else. I would highly recommend Julia to any friends with dogs who aren’t highly reactive to deer.”

About: I've always been around animals growing up. I've cared for all different kinds of livestock, cats, dogs, and small animals like bunnies and reptiles (no snakes or spiders though yet). And I love every minute of it. I have over 10 years of professional pet caring experience. I've house/pet sat for family members before. And local people in my town. I've also worked and still work in horse boarding barns, small family owned barns, and a local large animal sanctuary. I've even volunteered at my local animal hospital multiple times. I'm always willing to bend to the clients personal request when it comes to caring for their fur babies and homes. Right now I'm still in school until June 8th 2025. I have 3 jobs. One is seasonal and 2 are year around. So my schedule has a lot going on. Luckily my jobs are pretty flexible making things like house/pet sitting doable. I'm a very patient person. So when it comes to dealing with pets and tasks I take things one step at a time. My pets are well loved and know it. I have never gotten a complaint from any past or present client. I am more then willing to communicate different needs and come up with a plan to make your pets and you getting to know me a good and relieving experience. I'm also more then happy to give regular updates and send lots of pictures.

About: I am a very experienced pet owner in Montpelier - I have owned and loved alpacas, dogs, goats, cats, and backyard birds of all kinds. I have also done foster care of kittens and cats for CVHS. I'm available to provide a fun and loving spot to board your dogs. They will get attention, care, walks, and playtime with my 3 dogs. I have a crate if needed, can be one level if mobility is an issue, am willing to administer meds and have no problem with puppies or senior pets. I am home all afternoon and evening and weekends and dogs get a lunchtime walk as well. I am available for boarding all of the time, but only showed weekends because that’s when I am home all day and evening. During the week dogs would still get a morning and lunchtime walk and care all afternoon and evening. I will send updates and photos throughout your dogs time with us - I am also available to pick up and drop off dogs for an additional fee. I work in Montpelier until 3:00 pm so pets get exercise in the afternoons and weekends, and dogs get a lunchtime walk as well. I am around all of the time on weekends and school breaks and all summer. Our house has many dog beds, crates, toys and treats. We live on many acres and dogs can be on or off leash, depending on needs. I also take dogs to local trails to walk and socialize.

About: Hi there, my name is Logan. I am 28 years old, originally from Morrisville, Vermont. Ever since I was a child, I have had endless love for animals of every kind. I feel deeply connected to them- they truly are man’s best friend. I am very genuine, honest, and reliable. I will always be respectful of your time, belongings, and of course, furry friend(s). Whether your companion needs a few potty break, a walk, or an overnight stay, please rest assured they are in good hands. If my services interest you, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting you and your best pal! Currently, I am in between jobs, so I have plenty of free time during the full 7 day week to accommodate whatever needs you may have. My household consists of my 7 month old son, our amazingly gentle and friendly 4 year old American Bully, Chuck, and our 8 year old fat, lazy cat, Clyde.

Melissa P.
“I can't think of anyone better than Melissa to be a pet sitter. I am her mother so the advantage is that I know her well and I witness daily the care she gives her pets- mostly dogs - but her daughter now has a cat who is treated like a princess. Melissa walks her dogs daily. Always on a leash where required but also has some special places where dogs can be unleashed. Pets are well fed, get treats (when they behave😂), have toys, warm beds, warm jackets. She would be the person that not only feeds, walks, pets but also genuinely cares about them. I truly believe river.com couldn't find anyone better suited!!! Rachel Pinard”
