House Sitting in Southbury

“James was great! My dog immediately loved him :) great at communicating and sharing pics during the day as well. I will definitely be using James again!”

“Christine goes above and beyond to ensure our two elderly dogs are well cared for and well loved. They are very different personalities and ability levels, and she cares for both splendidly. Christine could not be more organized and responsible with the dogs and the house as well. It is a luxury to leave home knowing our dogs are in such excellent hands. Anyone who Christine works with will be very lucky to know her.”

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up , currently I have four Siberian huskies super duper crazy but I love them. I work at an animal hospital where I am learning so much more about our four legged friends and the different sizes to breeds and behaviors also! I am also familiar and experienced in our feline friends too! I love dogs and cats they are family and family is treated with love and care<3 I also provide baths in owners home if they would like especially for our shedders! My purpose to care for dogs is to give them a great workout where they are left happy and satisfied on there walk! If you want your dog to a get an amazing workout I am the man to do it ! Thank you for your time and if you scroll more you’ll see pictures of different four legged friends I’ve worked with here on rover and at the animal hospital!!! My daily life is consisted of pet care , I wake up early to go take care of mine feed them , walk them and then I go to work where I care for the dogs staying with us at the animal hospital! I feed them and take them out and spend time with them in the yard in the cold, rain, sunshine, cloudy you name it! I have a great connection to animals where I treat every animal as if they were my own! I give them baths every month . Water and food daily. I walk them at least 3 times a day and play with them and cuddles

“Brooke is a lovely person and a natural with dogs. She came to stay with our toy poodle while she recovered from being spayed and dental surgery. Brooked kept her calm and from running around by snuggling with her all day. She was in touch and sent a cute video. I would highly recommend Brooke and hope to use her again for both our dogs in the future. Jana”

About: We have our own dog, she is 1 year old. We garentee the best play mate for your pet. We like to spend time playing and training outside. I'm currently working part-time from home. So I have a lot of free time. Also we do have our own dog and we spend a lot of time outside or inside playing together. We don't have a fence but there are so many trails and parks around where we live. We like to take long walks at least once a day.

“We highly recommend Bruce.This was the first time since we adopted Bixby that we left him with a sitter. We were so fortunate to find Bruce.. He spent a lot of time with Bixby, even taking him to his home to play in his fenced-in backyard, as well as the dog park. Bruce sent us plenty of text updates, with photos. Bruce and Bixby both liked each other, and that made all the difference. Although we were nervous leaving our boy, we saw how happy and well cared for our boy was with Bruce. We definitely had peace of mind knowing he was with Bruce. He will be the first person we call for future stays. Thanks for everything Bruce!”

“Jon was amazing! He cared for our five dogs, chickens, and fish. He gave my senior dog daily medication and did diaper changes. Fed the chickens and collected eggs. He also got the mail and the house was cleaner when we got home then when we left. Jon is very personable, professional, and my dogs love him! Got daily updates and pictures too! Prompt response and communication from Jon made me feel very secure and confident. We cannot say enough about this great experience! We definitely recommend Jon for care of your animal family!”

“Joe was great! Communicated very well and I got lots of fun pictures while he stayed over this weekend. I would definitely trust and ask Joe to take care of Rheia again when I have to leave the house for a trip!”

“My dogs, especially the standoffish one, of my 3, loved Ian upon meeting him. He is very patient and gentle. He is so considerate and attentive. I cant praise him enough! We are actually stuck where we traveled to, and were able to book him last minute for a few more days. We will be tipping him accordingly upon our retun thanks to his last minute flexibility. HIGHLY RECOMMEND”

“We were very happy with Samantha's overnight stay. Our dogs haven't accepted being alone very well since we were home so much with Covid. They really liked Samantha and they were relaxed and happy when we returned. Samantha took the time to do a long meet and greet and I knew the dogs would be in good hands. We will definitely ask her to pet sit again if she's available!”

About: I have had cats since I was a baby and had chow chow dogs since I was 13 years old. I also worked at a kennel off and on for 12.5 years. I learned a little training but not a lot. I have worked with all different breeds of dogs. I love snuggling with cats as I grew up with having them in my household. I currently work full time at Ability Beyond however, full time is 30 hours for me so it allows me to have 3 to 4 days off towards the end of the week depending on the week. We have a large back yard with a dog run and as far as my cat. He is an indoor cat and gets spoiled indoors.

About: Hello! I grew up with large dogs and upon moving out from my home have had dogs, fish, and cats ever since. I have cared for large dogs, small dogs, and cats for over 20 years. I currently have three incredibly friendly and easy going dogs, including a remarkable Labrador retriever pup. I am currently on leave from my employment as a federal law enforcement officer. I am available most days and nights for your pets care. I understand the importance of pet diets, exercise, and socialization and make it a priority. My home is my pets home. We have a large 1.5 acre invisible fenced in yard surrounded by woods and a long front yard away from the road. The other dogs tend to stick together and my lab puppy learned the yard by just following around our German shorthaired pointer and older mastiff. Any other questions just ask!

“I thank Meghan for taking care of our dog Xena. She did a good great job with Xena. Our dog is difficult and she didn’t give up.”

“I have seen first hand how serious Kayla takes handling her own pets and pets she dogsit’s for. She is always providing excellent care and making sure the owners of their animals are content and feel comfortable with her presense.

“My family has a 4 year old Australian shepherd, she’s extremely high maintenance and not easy to work with! Emma has been patient and gentle with our dogs different needs and special personality. Our dog is weary of everyone she meets, but Emma has gained her trust and she’s the only person we trust to watch our dog while our family is away! I highly recommend Emma!”

“Amanda was a grat babysitter. She went above and beyond watching Huey and Pebbles. She made sure they had what they needed and took them for walks and then went above and gave them a bath and got them a toy. She put our mind at ease especially this being our first time using Rover. I am sure going to ask to use her again. I can now know I have someone to help take of my pets loving them the way we do. I value that. We also think her rates are reasonable. We can save to afford to hire her and I know it is worth it. Her rates aren't going to break the banking that to makes a difference when right now there is so much going on at home as well. There are no other words than Thank you to Amanda you are the best.”
