Cat Sitting in West Swanton

“Kara is able to coax my cat out of hiding! I'm so grateful for her loving touch with animals. I highly recommend Kara. You can trust her completely with your home and animals.”

“I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to come check on my two kittens than Michelle! During our meet and greet you could tell instantly she was comfortable with cats and knowledgeable about caring for them. She provided great and thorough updates that put my husband and I immediately at ease and plenty of pictures to show all the fun and care they were getting! Michelle is the best!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little, all of whom ranged from Great Danes to dachshunds. I’ve worked with older dogs all the way to puppies and have had my fair share of messes to clean up afterwards. No matter their age they are all puppies in my eyes. I work full-time as a Behavioral Interventionist in Chittenden County and my hours on the Job are: Monday-Wednesday 7:50-3:00, Thursday-Friday 7:50-4:20. Weekends are very flexible. I follow the care instructions given by the owners to the letter. If there are certain rules in place, I will ask the owner about what to expect from those rules. When there is a walkthrough before owner leaves, I like to make sure if there is any medication that the pups may need to take. I make sure to clean their water bowls out daily, and feed them the amount of food that the owner permits me to feed them. If the pups are allowed treats I will undoubtedly spoil them. If there is an emergency I ask for their vet’s phone number in case the pup needs to be taken. This is not my home and these are not my pups, therefore I will follow what the owner wants for their animals.

“Nikki quickly got back to us, she was sensitive and careful with our cat who is dealing with a difficult illness. We really appreciated her support and would highly recommend her.”

“Bridget seems great! She has been flexible with my requests and was patient with my funny little dog who is still adjusting to a new person. I will definitely use her again.”

“Hayley is wonderful! Being relatively new to the area, we were a bit apprehensive about leaving our pets with a new person. From the first contact, Hayley was very friendly and responsive. We arranged a meet and greet and felt instantly comfortable with her. She took great care of our three cats, particularly our elderly lady who needs medication administered twice a day. Her updates were thoughtful and reassuring. She went above and beyond by making sure things were tidy and fresh. We came home to very happy kitties! We look forward to having her visit again!”

“Eliza is a wonderful, loving caregiver. She prioritizes the dogs in her care and treats them as if they are her own. She is active and able to tire out even the most energetic dogs! Your dogs will love her!”

“Absolutely spectacular and highly recommend. We are so thankful to have found her! So caring and warm. Mahalo to samantha from us and our furbabies.”

“I could not recommend Jaime more! She was absolutely lovely and very compassionate with both of my dogs. She dealt with road closures and a few hiccups with the flooding/bad storms we had in Vermont during the week of her sitting but was very communicative and helpful throughout the week. I had never left my dogs with anyone but family/close friends prior to having her dog sit and will most definitely be hiring her again. You can tell she truly loves animals and cares about them.”

About: I have the patience for dogs that are shy and the energy to tire out the active ones. Knowing what they need is so important. I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to give your furry family members the attention they need while you are away. I treat your pets and property as if they were my own. Neither will pets or home be abused or neglected. while under my care.

About: I’ve always had pets growing up. I’ve learned to care for pets responsibly and give them the love and attention they need everyday. I make sure I’m attentive and fun for all the pets I take care of. I’m in college and can do any job during my breaks and weekends work the best most of the time. Also the summer I am mostly free. I’ll always make sure that your pets are leashed while outside and will make sure your doors are locked in case of possible intruders. I will always keep an eye on your pet so they don’t get up to mischief.

“Andrea is amazing! She was excellent with my 9-week-old puppy and 14.5-year-old lab. Highly recommend.”

“Chelsea did a awesome job our 3 dogs loved her highly recommend to anyone”

About: I was born into a home with two dogs and always had a home full of pets growing up. Pets to me are part of the family. I am currently employed full time. I am available on most days of the week from 5pm to 9pm and 10am to 9pm most weekends. My dog is a member of the family so she shares all the perks. My house currently lacks a fenced in backyard for this reason I do not do boarding.

“Mary and Noe took great care of my senior feline while I was away, and I will not hesitate to book them again. They were reliable, conscientious, and very easy to work with.”

About: I love working with dogs, the most! Pre-Covid I worked at a dog daycare for a year and those work days felt like my days off. There, I gained experience with all kinds of breeds and behaviors of dogs and got to love every one of them as they were my own. I don't do training but would be happy to reinforce learned tricks and commands that they already have experience with! currently caring for a newborn and off of my full-time employment. baby would join me in dog walks and drop ins. when returning to work i’m out early afternoon for those doggies needing a midday potty or visit would love to work with a couple of families closely to offer routine to your pet with consistent visits and care. I’m no longer offering services in my own home.

“Nick is a very reliable dog walker and sitter . He loves pets and is extremely friendly with our dog . Our dog love walking with him.”

“Once I had met Dakota for our Meet n Greet I knew Franklin (our love-bug cat) would be taken care of and have a friend while we were gone. She is kind and responsible.”

“We have a very anxious/ reactive rescue dog (and a sweet cat) who had never been left with a pet sitter before and then we found Rachel. Rachel took such wonderful care of our pets and has such a loving, calming presence. While we were gone our anxious pup ate every meal, took her meds, and snuggled up to Rachel every moment she could. Rachel is very responsible and communicative and we felt very safe knowing Rachel was there. We are so glad we found Rachel and would highly recommend Rachel as a pet sitter.”

“Kathryn has always been a reliable and loving companion for our pooches. Our dogs don’t even notice we are gone when Kathryn is around. We have used her services on both overnight and extended vacations. We love that she sends video and pictures of our animals to update us while we are away. A must book animal sitter.”
