Dog Walking in Ansonia

About: Caring for animals has been a constant part of my life. I grew up in a home that always had two dogs at a time, and before moving out, my family had raised six wonderful dogs together. From energetic pups to older companions, I’ve experienced the full range of what it means to care for dogs through different stages of life. I currently share my home with two special-needs cats, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of understanding each animal’s unique personality and needs. Managing medications, monitoring behavior changes, and creating a calm, safe environment are all things I take seriously. My primary goal when caring for your pet is simple: I want them to feel happy, secure, and relaxed while you’re away. I also know how important peace of mind is for owners. I’m communicative, reliable, and happy to provide updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and cared for. I treat every animal with gentleness, respect, and the kind of attention I would want for my own pets. I work remotely in IT for a nonprofit organization, which gives me a very flexible weekday schedule. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy having some furry company during the week. Whether that means a midday walk to break up my workday or a fuzzy companion nearby while I’m at my desk. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m happy to structure my schedule around walks, feeding times, medication needs, or check-ins. Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches, and you can expect consistent updates while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your routines and instructions carefully. I follow feeding schedules, medication needs, walking routines, and house rules closely so your pet’s world feels as consistent and familiar as possible while you’re away. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident everything is going smoothly. If your pet stays in my home, their comfort and safety are my top priorities. They will have their own dedicated space in my finished basement office that is clean, hazard-free, and separate from my cats. This allows visiting pets to relax without feeling overwhelmed, and ensures everyone stays safe and stress-free. The space includes a comfortable couch just for them, plenty of room to stretch out, and a calm environment away from household noise. I’m home during the day, so they’ll receive regular supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention, balanced with quiet time to rest.

“Bruce was easy to communicate with and willing to come do a meet and greet before hand. It's clear he knows a lot about animals. Thanks, Bruce!”

About: Hi! My name is Katharine, and I’m currently a social work student working toward my bachelor’s degree with a passion for helping others, which includes animals! I’ve always loved being around pets and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and caring to look after them. I’ve owned my dog for the past 10 years, which has given me hands-on experience with daily pet care, routines, exercise, and providing lots of love and attention. I also regularly dog sit and cat sit for my neighbors, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, needs, and routines. I’m currently a college student out for the summer, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I have open availability 7 days a week. I’m able to be flexible with walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and playtime to meet each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, playtime, and any house rules or routines your pet is used to. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and supervision while keeping the home clean and respectful. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.

About: I am an Animal Behavior student with professional experience in dog daycare, training, educational animal programs, and wildlife rehabilitation. I have hands-on experience working with dogs, cats, rabbits, small animals, reptiles, and rehabilitating wildlife in both professional and personal settings. Through my education and experience, I have developed a strong understanding of animal behavior and body language, allowing me to recognize signs of stress or discomfort and create a safe, calm, and positive environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. My schedule is very flexible, and I have plenty of availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I also work part-time in animal care, so my hours can occasionally vary, but I always do my best to accommodate different schedules and provide dependable, loving care for every pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are really important to me. I have experience working with animals in daycare, boarding, training, educational animal programs, and wildlife rehabilitation, so I understand how important patience, supervision, and routine are. I always respect owners’ instructions and work to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me.

“I cannot say enough good things about Kara. I moved to a new town and reached out to her for help. She is flexible, reliable and easy to communicate with. She always makes herself available for me and is wonderful with my dogs. She's been a massive help and I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. :)”

“Aliana (Ali) was awesome with our pups! They loved her! Ali was very responsive, prompt and accommodating to our requests (even after some easily-bothersome last-minute ones!). She kept in contact with us throughout the time we requested her service up until bringing our pups back into our apartment after their walk. She took pictures of our pups on their walk as we had asked her to. Our pups were nice and tired when we arrived home to them. We will most definitely be having her over next time we need a sitter again! Thank you again Ali!”

Ivan P.

“Aisaia was great!! Very prompt on time, gave me dog a wonderful long walk and she returned very happy and relaxed. I will definitely reach out to him again in the future! Thank you Aisaia!!”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life. I have experience taking care of cats and dogs. I’m a cat person myself, I have two sibling cats Bonnie and Clyde, but I love dogs just as much and will take care of all animals with love. My current work schedule is 11-4 Monday-Thursday, 11-8 Friday and Saturday, and I’m off Sundays. I am pretty flexible when it comes to animals. I always make pet safety my top priority by carefully following the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, routines, and any special needs. In a client’s home, I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times and keep pets in their normal routine. I also make sure fresh water is always available. I respect each client’s home, keep communication open, and send regular updates and photos so owners feel comfortable knowing their pet is being well cared for. If a pet seems nervous or shy, I stay patient and let them adjust at their own pace.

About: I stand out with my genuine love for animals, tailored care for each pet, reliability, and extensive experience ensuring their happiness, health, and their safety. Im currently not working any other job, therefore I have plenty of time to play, walk and care for your pups as much as needed! I have a huge yard, plenty of space for us to play. A nice home for them to relax. I can take your pups out anytime needed!

About: Hi! My name is Isaiah, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands on experience caring for a wide variety of pets. I currently have two cats, Sharpay and Stevie, and a dog named Sterling, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve raised and looked after pigs, bearded dragons, bunnies, and fish. This experience has taught me how to adapt to different personalities, routines, and care needs whether that’s energetic playtime, gentle handling, or maintaining specific feeding and habitat routines. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure you have peace of mind with updates and communication. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! I currently work part-time as a Certified Nursing Assistant (just 2 days a week), which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability for pet care.

About: Hello! My name is Danny! I've been an animal caregiver for 10 years since I was in high school and during my time in college. Currently have a full time job, but I don't mind taking care of your dog or cats on the side! Doesn't matter of they're as small as a Chihuahua or as big as a lab, I've taken care of a good fair share, and don't mind giving them attention at home, feeding them, playing with them, taking them to the public park, or even to take them out to the nearest dog park for some real exercise and social interaction (if the dogs are ok with being in cars of course). All I ask is to be notified at least a week in advance, and some basic information on the dog or cat so that I don't feed them wrong snacks or food, or over stress when playing (dogs and cats have limits. Best to know what so I don't trigger anything, y'know) I will say that since I am a full-time worker right now, my available days usually go for Thursdays or Saturdays, but if you need more time, be sure to communicate with me 3 weeks in advance so I can request those times off. If all that is ok with you, then be sure to email or text me with your information! I'd say call, but I don't trust phone calls anymore. Too many robo calls. So texting or emailing is a must! Thank you for reading! Hope to hear from you soon! -Danny At the moment, I am working full-time at my current job, and only. ntend to do this job as a part time position. I am available for full day services on Thursdays and Saturdays, but if you need more, be sure to let me know about 3 weeks in advance so I can schedule the time off. I work under the clients rule set if any. No one knows their animals better than them, and as such knowing the animals taste of food, playtime or style of play is very important to me. They're not all the same, and need to be treated accordingly so they can be as happy and safe as possible. If they require walks around the block, that's fine by me! If they enjoy playtime outside, I'm in! And if they love going to the dog park to have some real exercise and to socialize, I love trips and love to see them happy! Communication is key, and if there's any change that is necessary, I'm just a text away.

About: One of the things which is most important is for your pet to be in the best care and to give you their owner more ease knowing your pet is in wonderful hands. Having grownup with different dogs and now owning a husky as well as a german shepherd of my own I have many years of experience with all different types of dogs.I know what it takes for big , small , energetic or relaxed pets. Whether your dog comes for a stay at my house or i stop by to check on them at home they will always feel loved and get alot of attention. When your dog stays at my house they will have plenty of time outside as my dogs cannot get enough or even out for a walk around the nearest park. If you have questions or concerns let me know ! Thank you for taking the time and i hope to hear from you soon. Working full time from home has given me the incredible ability to spend more time with my own dogs. With such a great work life balance I know have I wanted to be able to give other pet parents the peace of mind their dogs can also have plenty of love and attention while you are busy! I believe that our pets are part of our families this means when your dog is in my home they are treated as such. They will get plenty of attention and be able to play outdoors each day to run off some energy. In your own home I will ensure all of your rules you have set in place are followed as well as provide plenty of love and attention to your pet while you are off either at work, or running errands.
