Dog Walkers in West Dummerston, VT

“We love Elias!!! He has the knowledge and understanding that all animals are different and knows how to cater to different needs. I know I have nothing to worry about when I'm at work while Elias takes my dog on their off-leash trail hikes! He is very communicative and quick to respond when needed. Both my dog and I are SO happy to have Elias's help every week!”

About: I'm used to big dogs, even slightly aggressive or unruly dogs, well-behaved as well as meek dogs. They all need exercise! 20 years ago I trained over the winter season with an accomplished sled dog team and completed a 30-mile sled dog race. I also have experience raising our Australian Cattle Dog from 9 weeks. ACDs are little velociraptors, but we got through it and she's now a well-behaved adult. I currently have a fairly open schedule. I work in dog walking around my own regular dog walking, running, going to the gym and home tasks and chores. Monday - Saturday are my available days, my Sundays are mostly full. I'll come to your home and walk your dog in your neighborhood if you prefer, but my favorite activity is walking dogs on local trails in the woods and hills. We'll talk about what your dog is up for, and if you're unsure, we can start with easy hikes. For drop-in visits I'll ask you about your dog and what your expectations are and any special needs or instructions, and I'll take it from there.

“Emily is so great with our dog Ruby. Ruby is so excited when Emily comes over for walks and I think it really helps break up her day. Emily has been really easy to work with and knows how to handle dogs, we would definitely recommend her to others. Thanks!”

“Kimberly was awesome. She showed up in time (Even 5 minutes earlier) and she made sure to do everything that she could for my dog. Will definitely contact her again.”

“I am a repeat customer of Heather’s and she’s great! I have an elderly dog that she walks twice weekly for me, and Heather is super attentive, responsive, and reliable. She gives detailed updates, and Holyfield loves her! I have only had great experiences with Heather, 10/10 would recommend”

“Matthew is so great with my dogs. I cannot say enough about him. One of my dogs is very elderly and frail and needs to be woken up to be walked, and carried up and down the stairs. Meanwhile, the other dog is high energy and anxious on the leash. Matthew does this all with so much skill, caring, and patience. I am incredibly grateful.”

About: We are a young, active couple that recently lost our dog after over ten years together. We have experience with puppies and seniors. While we aren't professional trainers, we have plenty of experience training our own dogs. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on us to pet-sit, walk, and train their animals. I grew up with a dog and my wife grew up with dogs and sheep. We currently have a small flock of hens as well. Our home is pet friendly, but we do not allow animals on the furniture. We don't have a fenced yard, but we live on over 30 acres, on a dirt road with minimal traffic, and in close proximity to miles of hiking trails. I work a 9a-5p job Monday - Friday, but only about 2 miles from home so I can easily run home during the day. My wife is self-employed and is more flexible with her schedule and works out of the house. Our home is pet friendly but we don't allow animals on the furniture. We have multiple large, comfortable dog beds, pillows, toys, water and food dishes, etc. We are loving and attentive. We enjoy being outdoors as much as possible, so walks, hikes, fetch, etc. is no issue. We miss having our own pup but aren't ready to adopt again, so we would love to spend some time with your animals!

About: Hi, I’m Ayden — your pet’s new favorite friend! 🐾 As a lifelong animal lover, most of my experience comes from caring for my own family pets — from playful puppies and curious kittens to sweet seniors and even a feathered friend. I’ve had the joy of loving animals big and small, couch potato and high energy. We recently said goodbye to our special needs dog after 8 amazing years together. I live with my wife and our 3 fur babies in a quiet neighborhood with a large (unfenced) backyard that’s perfect for safe, supervised play. I also do all my own grooming and love keeping pets looking and feeling their best. As a full-time realtor with a flexible schedule, I’m able to give your pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m conveniently located at the borders of New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Vermont, so I’m happy to serve pet parents across all three states! Whether your companion needs a walk, some company, or overnight care, I treat every pet like my own family. Let’s connect — I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! I am a realtor so I make my own schedule! Fitting in pet sitting will be absolutely no issue, and I am able to accommodate any existing routine your pet might have. Care for your pets will be based off their individual needs, as well as yours! In my home, my dogs are always crate trained for their safety and the safety of other pets in the home. Outside time will be on-leash until trust is built.

About: I've had dogs of various breeds since I was 7, and participated in competitive dog obedience and agility training in high school. I love to go on walks, and would look forward to getting to known your pet! I work from home, so I am around most if not all of the time. Our backyard is fenced and I love to take regular walks! I can care for your pet at my home or yours! Let me know your pets needs and we can find a schedule that best suits you.

“Brandy is now my Rover person of choice. She was early to pick up Sophie; gave her a fun yet rigorous workout. And, when she came back, Brandy ensured her paws were clean so she didn't track mud into the house. Sophie adores her as do we. She's the best.”

About: Growing up in Vermont on a farm, I have been exposed to animals my entire life. I have been taking care of family and friends dogs, horses, cats, guinea pigs, camels (yes, camels) since I was allowed to leave the driveway on my bike as a child. Since leaving high school I took on a professional equestrian career with Wichita riding academy working with rehabilitating abused/ off the track race horses. I have just recently moved to Denver with a fenced in yard and lots of space. I have a dog of my own that is my entire pride and joy who loves spending time with other dogs. Having a fenced in yard, it’s very helpful and handy to those pups with bladder issues to go in and out of the house as needed. My home was completely childproof when I moved in and it’s so far worked for dogs as well. Huge open field located next to the house available for dogs who like to run as well.

“Haley is absolutely wonderful! She is great at communicating things ahead of time and is very flexible if there’s a last minute change in the weekly schedule. My dog absolutely loves when it’s a “Haley walk day”. Absolutely recommend her!”

About: Hi, my name is Layton and I've been an animal lover my whole life. I've had furry family members since I was five years old and multiple re-occuring caretaking jobs, so I know how to care for your baby. From 2018 to 2020 I worked as a dog groomer and had the privilege to work with pups of all kind - big, small, young, old, excitable and laid-back. I especially love to provide YOU with a sense of comfort knowing that your pet is in wonderful hands. I am available for overnight sittings, drop-in visits, walks, trips to the dog park and even transports to the vet and groomer. Just let me know what kind of care your pet(s) need and I'll be there! I currently have a pretty flexible schedule for the time being. I am willing to take on weekly walks, occasional overnight sittings and longer term stays. I do not offer care at my home (I live with two cats that are not too fond of other animals). But, I can provide meals, walks, play and love for your pet in their own home!
