Dog Walkers in Williamstown, VT

“Alexandra is great with our dogs and very good at communicating. She was a huge help when we needed someone to pop in to walk the dogs. It’s so nice having a reliable, conscientious and dog loving person to take care of our dogs!”

“Marissa helped out with some dog walking for me while I was away. She was excellent with my pup and flexible with my schedule and coordinated with my housesitter which was much appreciated. Recommended!”

Jason D.

“Shannon is fantastic! She walked our very rambunctious dog every day for almost three weeks while I recovered from an injury. Shannon is prompt, reliable, and communicative. She took our dog on vigorous hour-long walks that left the pup snoozing and calm the rest of the day. The dog is already hoping I'll re-injure myself so she can see Shannon again. I will definitely turn to Shannon again for dog walking!”

“Abbey has been incredibly responsive and helpful with daily walks for our dog! Our pup is a little standoff-ish at first, and Abbey was patient and kind through this process. She also volunteered to come meet our dog before the first walk, which really helped put us at ease.”

Liza Z.

“Stoph did a great job and went through the trouble of putting boots on my dog every day to keep him as comfortable as possible during a really bad cold spell.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was about 6 years old and pet sitting since I was 10. That’s almost a thousand years. No. It’s actually more like 42 but jeez! I have always had animals of all sorts in my life but am a professional dog trainer and dog musher. I give guided dog/human hikes, teach obedience, urban and off grid mushing, and more! I love dogs. But who doesn’t? I seem to understand them too…and they usually get me pretty quick as well! I have time most days and weekends. I try and work around the needs of my animal friends! I take care of animals full time so I can accommodate most needs. Depending on the animal, we will accommodate whatever needs are necessary. Our own dogs are very receptive to new dogs but I always recommend introductions first if the dog will be staying with us. We can crate or not depending on the dog and we have a room where dogs can go to chill on big fluffy mats!

“Stephanie is an excellent pet sitter! Very very reliable and you can tell she adores animals. Millie was well cared for, she was walked a lot and Stephanie took the time to connect with our almost 5 months puppy! The house was left clean and she was very detailed oriented to learn our puppy care. Which I totally appreciate it. Highly recommend her services.”

About: I’m passionate about dogs with behavioral quirks and pets with other complex needs. I’ll take the time to get to know your animal individually and provide the support they need to feel comfortable and safe with me. I am skilled at reading dog body language and will respect their boundaries and communication. I am also comfortable caring for exotic animals such as rodents, rabbits, reptiles, fish, and birds. I have experience giving medication (orally via syringe) to small animals. I have a flexible schedule on weekdays and can generally stop by for a couple visits during the day, depending on what works best for you and your pet’s schedule. My availability is wide open on weekends so feel free to shoot me a message! I have experience working with reactive and fearful dogs, and am careful to avoid pushing boundaries, particularly if an animal is uncomfortable with strangers. Reading each individual’s body language and respecting their communication is key to ensuring a safe and comfortable visit. I’m very detail oriented and will follow your instructions to the letter, and will be sure to reach out with any clarifying questions. Animal behavior is a passion of mine, and I am comfortable accommodating for any specific needs or behavioral quirks they might have.

About: Hi there! I’m an elementary school teacher looking for some additional income. I would love to walk your dog or check in on your cat while you’re away. Proud owner of 2 chihuahuas, but have previously owned big dogs too. Thanks for considering! I have lots of availability this summer being on summer break! I could give your dog a walk, or check in your cat. Mornings, afternoons, or evenings! I would defer to you as to what safety looks like (harness, leash, collar, etc). My two dogs have name tag collars, and leashes. I have walked dogs with harnesses as well. Sometimes I need a little instruction as to how to put it on (some designs are tricky!), but in the end I always figure it out!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life. I love dogs and cats of all ages! I’m excited to connect and get to know your pets! I am very flexible with my work schedule. I’m happy to work with you and create a schedule that works well for your pet needs. I assure that the environment is pet friendly and that your pet is my top priority. My house is a quiet and safe place that is great for both humans and pets.

“Sue is great! Excellent communication and very good with our dog. We booked her for weekend dog walking during ski season and it was a huge help.”

“Colby did great with our Basset Hound, Muffin. They both seemed to enjoy each other immediately. They went for a nice walk, and Muffin offered Colby many kisses afterwards as a thank you. Colby seemed to handle Muffin's little antics quite well, and they parted as new friends. Thank you, Colby!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was about 11 years old — it started with neighbors, family friends, and anyone who needed a hand, and it quickly became something I truly love. Being around dogs has always come naturally to me. I’m patient, calm, playful, and super intuitive with animals, especially dogs of all kinds. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while their people are away. Over the years, I’ve built real trust with the people I’ve worked with. They know their dogs are in good hands with me — whether it’s for a quick walk or a whole weekend. I’ve looked after energetic puppies, shy rescues, older dogs needing meds, and everything in between. This isn’t just something I do — it’s something I genuinely care about. I currently go to barber school from 8:30-5 on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. If you need a little check in or letting your dog out after that on those days I would definitely do that! Other than that I am open 6-11pm on every other day unless I have something else going on. If you ever need to know just always reach out if needed! I live in an apartment complex but I usually let me dogs free inside and if they need it I usually bring them to the dog park to get all that playfulness out. I am very attentive so your dog will never be left alone! I have 2 dogs medium size and one likes to relax while the other loves to play but she knows her limits, if the other dog does not like it she does stop.

About: I love dogs! I grew up with a little black poodle named Cherry who is 18 years old now and is featured here! I have been a dog walker for my neighbors whenever they needed in the past. Very comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I am a full time physical therapist/strength train consistently, so very comfortable handling bigger girls and boys. Please contact me if your dog needs a walk or you need to leave your furry friend with me while you go on vacation! I often start late or end early so can be quite flexible depending on your needs. Happy to be prioritize your furry friend as able! I am very respectful of your particular needs/requests. Everyone is a little different. Happy to dog sit and eventually be able to have dogs come stay with me as my landlord allows. Mainly hoping to help with dog walking. I am very mindful of surroundings and ensure we are safe/properly leashed up before heading outside.

“Giovanni loves Lillian. She was prompt and attentive and went above and beyond expectations.”

About: I promise to keep your fur baby safe and happy as can be while you're away. I will provide playtime, walks, cuddles and a lot of attention. I am very interactive and not afraid to be goofy in order to make a genuine connection with your pet. Don't be afraid to leave me detailed instructions- I get it and have fur and feathered babies of my own! I am able to walk up to 2 to 3 big dogs at a time and feel confident in my abilities to give commands and appropriate rewards/disciplines. If your pet(s) gets dirty, I will bathe them as well as clean up any messes that occur. I also will keep your home sweet home neat and tidy so you never come home to a mess. I have grown up with pets and have always owned one or two.. okay, maybe 3 at a time. I make genuine connections with animals (wild ones, too) and would love to give them the opportunity to get outside all season long (even in the winter). If your pet would like an adventure buddy and companion who will distract them from your absence then give me a shout. Feel free to contact me with questions and concerns. I would be more than happy to chat with you!
