“5 Stars – Wonderful Dog Sitter! I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. Chad was incredibly attentive, responsible, and clearly has a real love for animals. They kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind. Thank you!”
“Dana is punctual, caring and excellent at communicating. She made sure our dog were well taken care of during drop in visits while we went on a mini one night getaway. We have already scheduled her again for our next trip !”
“Marielle is an EXCEPTIONAL dog sitter! She helped us out for 4 days in a row with our rambunctious, challenging, high-energy, relentlessly driven almost 6 mo Australian Shepherd. The weather was horribly uncooperative - freezing, raining, windy, muddy and ongoing for all but 1 day. Marielle showed up on time very early in the morning with an enthusiastic greeting to my pup and no matter how many instructions I may have burdened her with, she took everything in with a smile. She is highly knowledgeable about dogs of all ages, patient, kind and energetic. She took my dog out for hours in all conditions without complaint! Our cabin was tiny, and she came for 4 -5 hour drop in visits. She is very comfortable to be around and my dog loved her! What more could you ask for?? Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with litters of German Shepherd puppies which sparked my lifelong love of animals. As adult, I raised and bred Labrador Retrievers. I now share my home with five cats, two Labs and six chickens. I'm also a proud grandparent to two wonderful grandchildren. Retired and living in Vermont. I'm recently retired and spending my time doing what I love most. Beling arond animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing and simply keeping pets company. If you ever need a little help with your furry friend whether it's a walk, some playtime, or just a visit while you're out. I can take them to the dog parks or to the waling paths.
“Allison was so helpful with Charlie during our stay in Stowe. Charlie was immediately comfortable with her. She made a special meet and greet visit earlier in the day - which was greatly appreciated. We visit often and I hope to continue to have Allison help out. Allison is very professional and mature. Highly recommended.”
About: I have owned or cared for guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs, cats, baby chicks, and even a tortoise since the age of 11. I currently own 2 cats and have experience caring for and administering medicine to sick and/or elderly pets. I am considerate of individual animal’s boundaries and their unique needs. I typically have availability Saturdays, Sundays, and Tuesdays-Thursdays. My work schedule is not always consistent, so advanced notice is appreciated. I will try to be as flexible as possible. I have lots of experience petsitting animals of very different personalities and needs. I am most familiar with cats and dogs. I am very communicative and follow instructions of the pet owner well.
“Lauren handled a stressful escapee dog situation very well — stayed calm and managed to get our tricky dog back on the property. She’s lovely and clearly a dog lover. I will definitely plan on using again.”
About: I have grown up with dogs in my life since day one. I have learned how to take care of puppies with high energy to old dogs that need help going out to the bathroom. I have been dog watching for over 8 years and I am used to working with Rover. I’m also available for weekly/reoccurring meetings! I work retail part time and on break from school at Northeastern. I am available most days and have a few shifts a week. I’m free for morning and night walks and for dog sitting too! I will cater to the dogs needs and adjust how I act depending on visual signs. I’m ready to run and puppy around to get out energy. I’m prepared for a dog who is scared and will take time to get use to me.
About: I’ve taking care of all types of animals from dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, llamas, cows, and many more! So nothing really bothers me! Just looking to make some extra side work to help pay off my student loans. Also maybe open up a savings account and pay some bills. I am a dog trainer during the week so I have plenty experience of caring for dog and other animals making sure they have all their proper necessities at all times! I am currently working MWT but can fit a request in anywhere I am working out in Walden & live in Eden. Just message me would love to meet your fur baby! I would care for them with love and spend extra time with them make sure they get everything they needed during that time. If it was a walk or just. Check in
“Agnes was great! She came and dropped in on our two kitties while we were out. She shared photos and updates every time and gave us peace of mind. She also took good care of our home during her visits. We came home to happy kitties!”
About: Since as early as I can remember I have grown up with dogs, and other animals. I have experience in caring for dogs, cats, horses, and some exotic animals as well (small and large animals). I am always ready for a challenge and love spending time with any dog! I have experience in a variety of dog training areas including hunting dogs and service dogs. I am also a pre-veterinary student with basic animal care knowledge! I have worked with a variety of breeds ranging from retrievers and pointers to terriers and toy-breeds. I love working with dogs of all ages and am capable of caring for newborn puppies and your older furry friends! I also have over nine years of house-sitting and pet-sitting experience. Caring for pets is one of my passions so it is easy to make it a part of my daily routine, even while I'm working! Please note, I do work full-time and as such my week-day schedule is typically limited but I am happy to discuss specific options. When caring for your pets they become like my own. I supervise outside time, even if there is a fence and always keep them close!
“This was the second time we’ve worked with Kim, and we were again impressed by her care and level of attention to detail. It was comforting to know Spruce was in good hands, and we wouldn’t hesitate to use Kim again.”
About: My schedule is flexible so I'm able to spend time throughout the day with your fur baby. I'm active and happy to play fetch for hours! I like to take puppers for multiple walks and give lots of love and pets. The clients I sit for like the fact they can contact me last minute and I'm generally able to adjust my schedule to be available. My schedule changes from week to week but feel free to contact me to double check my availability no matter the season! I like when clients leave me detailed instructions on what their pets normal schedules are, that way there's less stress put on myself and on your fur friend! I'm able to work from home most days of the week, this allows me to be available for all pet needs - morning, lunch time, and after work walks are a part of my daily schedule when we have a dog to take care of. Lots of mental stimulation and training exercises throughout the day to keep them out of trouble helps too! I have a 9 year old cat in the house that tends to keep to herself in the bedroom when there's a dog around. Our home is on 5 acres of land with a big yard to do lots of sniffing around. I'm also located right on the rail trail for longer walks and adventures!

Janice C.
“I got my 2 Labradors from Janice 9 and 10 years ago now. When the puppies were old enough, before they came home at 8wks she would let me come visit them as often as I liked. While visiting you could see what good care she took not only of the puppies, but her old 3 adult labs Shadow, Coco and Zoe (my dogs mom). They were all very well trained and behaved. She is very knowledgeable about raising and caring for dogs. As my 2 were adapting my their new home with me she was available whenever I had a question or needed advice. There are very few people I would completely trust to care for my boys, Janice is absolutely at the top of that list, I wish she still lived in the area!”

Kaitlyn took her time with him and loved him just like her own. Peanut, my rabbit, eats fresh veggies everyday and loves to be pet just above her ears. Kaitlyn just paid attention to all the details and will definitely use her services again!”

Brooke M.
“I am beyond lucky and grateful to have Brooke in my life. She’s the kind of person you can always count on—dependable, honest, and hardworking. She makes everyone around her feel at ease. Brooke’s love for animals shines in everything she does and she has even started fostering dogs in order to find them their perfect home. She’s patient, attentive, and incredibly thoughtful, always making sure that everyone (two-legged or four-legged) feels cared for and safe. I’ve seen firsthand how dedicated she is, not only to her friends and family but also to any task or responsibility she takes on. Whether it’s helping a friend in need or going the extra mile to make sure things are done right. I can’t think of anyone I’d trust more with my pets. She has such a calm and nurturing energy, and I know any pet in her care will feel just as lucky to have her as I do.”
