“Our family has been blessed with Tara! We could not be more grateful for how well she took care of our family of furry kiddos! Tara was extremely flexible with our changing schedule and ensured she gave extra attention to our kiddos when she came over and provided thorough report cards lol. We even found a box of treats that she had brought over for the pups! I felt confident about everything and didn’t worry about anything at all. Thank you, Tara!”

“Edmy and Craig go the extra mile to ensure our girl River gets some exercise while we're away during the day. I received multiple pictures of River in our home and outside on their walk. They have been flexible and helpful as we work through training commands. I will continue utilizing their walking/drop-in services and recommend them to others.”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have experienced every stage of life. Whether you’ve had your dog for 10 weeks or 10 years, I’m confident I will be able to give the best care they deserve! I currently work full time, so my availability is 6am-8am and 7pm-10pm on the weekdays. I’d love to start my morning or end my day taking care of your dog! I’m not available Thursday evenings, certain Saturdays due to work schedule, and Sundays. I’ll make sure to update my availability as soon as know of upcoming events! We have always crated our dogs in the past so I am very familiar with crating and the safe space a crate can provide for a dog. When it comes to walking dogs, I believe in giving them the freedom to explore around them (sniff the ground, watch a squirrel, etc) while still remaining in control of the walk. I also make sure to stay aware of my surroundings to ensure there are no cars coming, children running by, or things blocking the path for us to continue our walk.

About: Let me care for your loved ones while you are away, so you can rest at ease and enjoy your adventure with your family and friends. I love being on the move and having a variety of tasks. I love helping to build a strong community as well in this area. Pets are important family members, and I believe owners should know they are valued as such when they are away. Providing your house and/or your pets is the priority while you are away/or needing services. Let me provide you the peace of mind that your house and your pets will receive the highest quality of attention. I have lived in many countries, led international mission trips, and have cared for many owner's houses/pets.
“Wes has done a fantastic job with drop-in visits for my goldendoodle. She's still in her puppy phase, and he makes time for walks and playing in the backyard. He has always been on-time and communicates well after each visit. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for dog care!”


About: I have taken care of dogs around my neighborhood and my own dogs from a very young age in all kinds of breeds and ages. I am currently an online college student working to get side income. I am able to work around lots of times to fit your needs! I will make sure to be attentive to any age dog in your home and provide wonderful enrichment and play time to get the energy out!
“Charity was incredible!! Very professional and caring. I have a very rambunctious 10 month old Newfoundland that she handled with patience and care. She regularly sent pictures and updates to me. I would recommend her 1000%. She put my mind at ease while I was away on vacation!!”

“Jennifer is so wonderful with both of our cats! She’s attentive to them and makes sure to play a bit while she visits. I really appreciate the detailed summary and lots of photos from each visit too.”
“Natalie is a true gem! 💎 We could feel her energy and dedication to providing the best care for our pets right from our first meeting, and we didn’t worry at all while we were away. Natalie’s communication was excellent, including photos, and she went above and beyond our expectations, leaving our home neat and organized when we returned. Natalie is highly recommended, and we will definitely ask her to sit for us again soon.”

About: Hi I am Stephanie. I am a life long dog owner and lover of all animals. I currently have a Cavapoo named Sophie who is my little ball of attitude. I have experience with all kinds of dogs, labs, cocker spaniel, doodles, German shepherds,and French Bulldogs. I am willing to watch in your home as my girl isn't fond of guests. I work full time but depending on the area of town I am available for midday walks and care as well more and evening. I would love to provide amazing care for your pup while you enjoy a relaxing vacation or are out of town for any reason. I currently work full time on the north side of town but am located in New Haven in. I get 1 hr for lunch and if you are located huntertown or in this area I can definitely do midday walks and cuddles. Walks, let on lead, electric fence or anyway you prefer your pets to do their business. Feeding, playing and of course cuddles to begin and end the day.
“Hannah was wonderful throughout the whole process, and Bella was so happy and calm when we got home. Hannah was an excellent communicator and sent the sweetest notes and pictures of Bella each time she stopped by. We recommend Hannah to everyone, and we’re looking forward to having her watch Bella again in the future! Thank you, Hannah!!”

“Tracy has cared for our dogs multiple times, and always does a wonderful job! He is so pleasant to work with and you can tell he really cares about the dogs. Would recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

About: I am a loving mother of 2 and I will care for your pets as if they were one of the kids. I have dog sit before and loved it. When I was younger I use to volunteer at the animal shelter with my great-grandma and that's the reason I love animals today. I have flexible hours and can work around your schedule, anything you need I can do from dog baths to walks at the park. We also adopted a cat a couple of years ago, and we just love him to pieces. We also just adopted a dog that we have previously sat for. I currently work at a nursing home, my boyfriend and I work opposite schedules so someone is always at home with your fur babies. Also with it being summer I have my two kiddos help out. I will make sure each animal has proper care including a clean safe cozy shelter, clean water, regular bathroom breaks, going on walks for at least half an hour, who knows it could be longer, and so much more!
“Melinda was good with the drop-in visits! Super kind and made sure my pet was well taken care of. I really appreciated the updates and pictures after each visit—it gave me peace of mind while I was away. My pet seemed comfortable and happy when I got home. I’d book with Melinda again and feel good knowing my pet is in good hands.”

“Stephanie went above and beyond to make sure Odie had the best time while I was away at work for a week. She was flexible and accommodated last minute changes, she cleaned up after his messes and just did an amazing job. Thank you so much for all you’ve done for Odie and I!”

“My kitties are usually the kind that hide with strangers. They came out every time Mariah dropped in to check on them , and she sent pictures!!!! I would definitely use her again . Thanks again !!!!”

About: I love caring for animals, but travel enough to where I know I can’t have my own anymore. I watch my grand-dogs and I just have a blast with it. I’ve had dogs and cats all my life until now and have some love to give to your cute pet! I’ve had dogs ranging in sizes from a dachshund to a pure bred mastiff. I am almost always at home, so I can provide constant care and play time during the day. I am proficient is giving medications as well. (Even to the stubborn ones!) I take plenty of pictures and share lots of updates, so you won’t need to worry while you’re away. I look forward to giving your pet all of the love and special attention that it deserves! I spend the majority of my time at home so I have plenty of time to spoil your pet. When I do need to leave it’s not more than an hour or two. I can easily adjust my schedule to meet the needs of your pet. I live in an apartment and there is a walking trail right outside my door.

About: I’ve had pets all my life. From lizards, to birds, cats and dogs, you name it. For the last 3 years I have been pet sitting for friends, neighbors, coworkers, and friends of friends as an in house sitter. I am currently working full time, however, my work life is very flexible with flexible hours. I can do middle of the day check ins if that is what you would prefer with no problem. I do spend a lot of time with the pets late afternoons to late evenings if I am not staying in the residence. When caring for pets in your home, I encourage a very detailed day to day that your pet has so I do not break from that routine for them as much as possible. It’s my hope for you and your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as possible. No needs or routine is too inconsiderate for me.
