“Matthew is so pleasant and laid back, any loving animal will gravitate well with him. Matthew was an easy win for my pittie girlie and she absolutely enjoyed her AM walk with him. I have already booked more appointments with Matthew that my pittie and I look forward to.”
“One of the best! Updated me the whole time my doggie was on a walk and came with last minute notice. Will definitely be booking more walks!! Muffin was satisfied 😇”
“Jillian was so kind! I needed someone last minute to walk my dog and she was awesome. We have never had someone stop into the house we hadn’t met before and could not have picked a better person. Nora was well taken care of and I was worry free. Thank you!”
About: I have been an owner of my dog, Scout for 13 years. Over those 13 years, I have learned how to care for animals. I have volunteered for the humane society for the past 5 years as well! I am currently working during the mornings of each weekend so I am pretty flexible during the weekdays. I can care for your pet during any hour of the day during the week! I feed, walk, and shower my dog with attention each day. I will treat your pet the same way mine would want to be treated.
About: I’ve taken care of friends and families animals since I was 10. We always had every kind of animal in the house growing up, from rats to cats and everything in between. Recently my senior dog (Tug) passed and I have missed interacting with animals. I am currently working remotely in west Hartford! Looking to get some animal time in mostly during the mornings, late afternoon, evening and on weekends. Please reach out to confirm availability! Please let me know if there is anything special that I can do to enhance your pets time with me! Every animal is different and I want to make sure they feel as comfortable as possible!
“Kanwar was great! Scout picked up the good vibes immediately and got along very well. Kanwar was responsive and very considerate. For example, he went out of his way to check Scout’s water bowl was full after his walk on a hot day.”
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals big and small furry or reptilian! I’m comfortable with different energy levels and sizes and willing to put in the work to get to know your pet and make sure they are comfortable! I work from home with very flexible hours so I can accommodate many different schedules during business hours and throughout the rest of the day I live in an apartment so will not be caring for pets in my home, but I am very careful and thorough with all pet care instructions.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for my co-workers and friends for the past several years while they traveled out of town for an extended amount of time. I make sure to check-in every day, feed them, and make sure they get enough attention. I am raising money for marathons I have signed up for over the next year. I’m preparing to run the Marine Corps Marathon and aim to run the Boston Marathon. I usually work evenings from 3-11pm Wednesdays through Sundays and I will have time to take care of your pet in the mornings before I get ready for work. When I am in charge of your pet, I make sure sure they have the food the need to remain healthy, give them a walk when they need it, and provide them with enough attention.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life; my first was a black lab, and I’ve been hooked ever since. I’ve helped train, walk, and care for our family’s three dogs, who are truly my world. I’m willing to go the extra mile for your dog(s), whether it’s playing, going to the dog park, or just giving them love 🐶❤️ I just completed my last internship at law school and now have a very flexible schedule that will allow me to petsit full time for the summer and fall of this year. I’m available during the week and on weekends! In my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved by creating a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and routine. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their pet’s normal schedule and care instructions, keeping things consistent to help them feel at ease. Doesn’t matter if it’s feeding, walking, cleaning up, or just giving them attention: I treat every pet like my own.
About: I currently have no dogs but have 5 back home in Colorado whereI grew up on a ranch and now simply miss having so many animals around so I'd love to take care of yours to fill that pet gap in my heart! I'm used to pets big and small and know I'll love and care for your dogs or cats as if it were my own. I'm pretty flexible and am only out of town a few weekends this summer! My other jobs for summer are also flexible so any pets can be my priority this summer. I love to exercise pups or give them love whichever they need! I'm experienced with having to get pets to take their pills for the older ones and I have all the energy needed to play with the younger ones :)
About: I have volunteered with dogs for about 5-6 years, including with large dogs and reactive dogs. I also pet sit my friends' dogs. For me, spending time with animals is therapy. I would love to give your dog all the attention they deserve during my visits. Whether it's long walks, snuggle time or a check-in, I will make sure your pet gets the best love and care! I work full-time but my job is flexible. I'm available for drop-ins, overnight stays and walks. The end of the week and weekends are the most open for me. I cannot pet sit at my apartment, but I am comfortable staying in others' homes. This is how I pet sit for my friends. This also helps with pets' comfort, I think.
About: Growing up I’ve had either a dog , cat , fish or bird. Once I had all four at once ! My love for my fur family grew with my age & now I’m extending the love from my fur family to yours ! <3 I currently work a part time meaning I have plenty of time to spend time with your fur family ! That could be cuddles , walks , meals & just chill time I’m there ! My services happen in your home to ensure you the most secure & trusting environment for not only you but also your fur family! <3

Jessica H.
“Jess helped take care of my ranch including 7 dogs and 3 cats while I went on vacation for a week last summer. She has been caring for our pets on vacations for the past few years and always is able to keep the animals happy and cared for. She has had to handle emergency vet services with one of our horses before when it got twisted gut while we were away and was able to care for the horse as instructed which allowed it to make a full recovery. She has a great knowledge of what animals need and how to care for them and they seem to love her just as much! We have been fortunate enough to have been able to utilize her for so many years and we highly recommend using her for all of your pet sitting needs!”
Madeline S.
“Madeline is an excellent pet sitter and she is only of only a few people I would trust with my dog. She truly treats my dog as her own when she watches him and sends updates throughout the stay. She is very responsible and reliable and has experience with many types of dogs from being a volunteer at several shelters. She would be a great pet sitter for anyone!”
Alixeanaly R.
“i trust alix with my cats’ lives!!! she’s so good with them and i see how much they love her. i get tons of photos everytime she’s with them :). she even made them a little pet report card when taking care of them for the first time, which i thought was the sweetest thing ever. her passion for taking care of animals is apparent in her work. alix has done tons of drop ins at my apartment. she always made sure the water was always full and litter box was clean. i traveled for 2.5 weeks and i was in awe at how amazing she was. my cats’s food ran out while i was traveling and i freaked out but she picked up my package and did everything for me. once, the electricity in my building went out and she even went back in AGAIN to make sure their automatic feeder and water fountain were back on. it’s not easy trusting strangers to come into your home, but im so glad i found alix. i genuinely recommend her, she’s amazing.”
