About: I have always had dogs growing up as a kid. Then I started dog sitting for my neighbors and realized what I wanted to do in life was take care of animals for the rest of my life. Went to college to become and vet tech and currently help out with locals rabies clinics every spring. I am currently working full time in Rutland city. And I work every third Saturday only until 2pm. I am available to run out at lunchtime. I currently live on a farm,and my boyfriend's dog is a super friendly lab who loves to play ball. I do have a crate available if need be.

“Reliable. Kind. Easy to work with.”


3. Michael K.
“Michael loves animals and is able to make even the most shy or afraid creatures trust him. He and his wife are terrific dog parents. I would like to be Michael's dog, or be one in his care because he is experienced, gentle, and responsible. He even made friends with my son's 'Touch Me Not' cats. Something I still have not accomplished!”


4. Alyssa B.

“We used Alyssa to help with our 1 year old pup for 2 days of daycare and 1 walk while we were skiing for a few days. Gus was completely tuckered out and had a great time playing with Alyssa’s puppy Simba. Alyssa was great at communicating and being flexible. Thank you!”

6. Regan G.

“Regan was great with our pup! The first couple weeks she came over he just didn’t want to take a walk but Regan made sure to spend time with him playing fetch or tug. She was very respectful of our home as well. I would 100% recommend her for any pet sitting needs!!”

13. Mollie M.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was a little kid! I have experience with pets of all types, ages & personalities. Friends & family have relied on me to walk, feed & housesit for their animals. I work full time time job but I have most mornings free. My schedule rotates so I would not be able to have the same availability every week, but please reach out with dates & times! I would love to make something work. I can come to your house and walk your dog. If you are interested in an overnight board at my house the dog would have to be good with my 15lb poodle mix & two cats. It would be ideal that the dog comes with a crate to stay in, as my dog is crated as well when we are out of the house. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I live near a dog park, and in a nice spot to walk dogs.


14. Chrishanna W.
“Chrishanna used to watch my puppy for me while I worked. Or sometimes just because she wanted to. She was amazing with him. Always loved on him, gave him treats, took took to the dog park. I don't trust many people with my animal but I definitely would always let chrishanna watch him. She's amazing and has a special love for animals, dogs especially.”


15. James G.
About: I have been taking care of pets for years from dogs, cats, snakes, birds... even an alligator! As a nurse, I have natural caring instincts for people and pets alike. I work from home daily and therefore have plenty of time to play around with my fur buddies! When my wife come home from work we typically enjoy family evening strolls, couch cuddles, and lots of belly rubs! We have a small yard and plenty of areas nearby for walks/hikes. We are able to easily accommodate the living environment for individual pet needs. We also have 2 very friendly fur babies of our own!


16. Cristina K.
“Cristina at Bow Wow Babysitters is the hardest working and most caring pet sitter provider in the business. She has cared for my dogs (and even our horses) many times in my home and I leave knowing my little girl Stella will be so happy with Cristina to take her for walks, give her lots of loving and well cared for. I'm very thankful that there are people like Cristina out there to help keep our pets safe and happy when I travel.”

18. Karly M.
“Karly loves animals and has a big heart! My dog is skittish around new people, but he took to Karly right away! I would definitely recommend Karly!”


19. Lorien S.
About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a child from dogs and cats to horses and working on farms. I now have three dogs that I have raised and trained since puppies. They are now 5,7, and 12. I have an overwhelming love for all animals. I’m currently working at the Wheel Inn in Benson, VT. I work nights and weekends so I have extra free time during daytime hours in the week. My pets at home run free, but I do have a small area fenced in if need. When caring for others pets I will follow any guidelines they have for their pets.
