“Jillian always took great care of my dog on his walks, held a consistent schedule and adapted well to weather to make sure he was comfortable and cared for. She communicates quickly and is always a joy to work with!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and just recently welcomed two cats into my family. I have been babysitting and nannying for as long as I can remember which would often lead to taking care of their four legged family members as well. I’ve assisted in potty training and with my own pets helped apply and give medications. I am someone who is reliable and trustworthy. I know how much my pets mean to me and have always treated any animals in my care as if they were my own. Right now I am off for the summer and because I work in a school am off on holidays and weekends. Once school starts again in August a typical work day is 7am-3pm. Throughout my years of working with families came a lot of house sitting and pet sitting for them and their friends. I am always respect of other peoples homes and am more than happy to take in mail/packages and take care of plants. I will always take care of your pets like they are my own. I am reliable and communicative.

“Vanessa always goes above and beyond for my pup! She is easy to communicate with, reliable, and trustworthy. I would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I provide loving, attentive pet care, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while maintaining routines, exercise, feeding schedules, individualized attention, and clear owner communication. (Bilingual) Habló español Pet care fits into my routine part-time and per diem, allowing me to dedicate quality time, flexibility, and focused attention to each pet without feeling rushed. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I keep environments clean, safe, calm, and provide regular updates to owners for peace of mind.

“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 😇”

About: Hi! I love animals and have years of experience caring for pets. My very first job was walking my neighbor's dog every day after school throughout middle and high school. Since then, I've trained my own dog, regularly pet sat for neighbors, and have volunteered and advocated for animal welfare. One of my favorite activities is animal yoga—I’ve been to both puppy yoga and goat yoga! I'm currently starting medical school, and while my career is focused on caring for people, I've always had a passion for caring for animals. You can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and patient. I'll treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members, and I'd love the opportunity to give you that peace of mind. I'm currently in my gap year before starting medical school, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I also work part-time at a restaurant, which gives me flexibility during the day. I love spending time outside, so dog walks and outdoor play are something I genuinely enjoy. Caring for pets is the perfect way for me to spend my free time while helping owners. I always do my best to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel comfortable while you're away. I'm experienced with walking dogs, feeding, refilling water, crating when needed. At home, my dog enjoys daily walks and time playing in our fenced-in yard, so I understand how important exercise is. I will always make sure your pets get the love and care they need. I am also happy to keep you updated with photos and messages.

“Carla is very good with my shy golden retriever. I am very appreciative that she is walking with my dog. She is very friendly and easy to talk. Also she can control big dog well, too. I am definitely recommend her to take care dog.”

About: I have been a human to many dogs for the past 14 years including volunteering as a foster for three local organizations. I believe animals are a part of our family and should be treated with care and respect. I have trained puppies, cared for elderly dogs, injured dogs, and foster dogs. I have a particular skill in helping dogs get comfortable and acclimating to a new environment. I’m experienced in administering medication to pups and supporting animals who have separation anxiety. My partner and I both work from home and are available throughout the day and evening. We have two pups of our own so pet care is a part of our daily routine. I am typically up early with my puppy around 5:30AM and we begin our day with a nice morning walk. After a morning feeding, on a nice day, we sit outside and the dogs play while I work on the garden or have my morning coffee. My pups are fully integrated into my day and I divide my tasks for the day around their walk, play, and nap schedule. I seek to provide clients with what they need to ensure their comfort (the pets and their humans alike). I seek to understand your pets needs, routine, and your needs (i.e. updates, pictures, etc.) to ensure you feel secure with your pets care. I believe when I am hired to help care for your pup, we build a partnership that requires communication, understanding, and deep empathy. From caring for senior dogs to the messy puppy phase, I have had a breadth of experience in caring for pups.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats from a very young age. Growing up I had 4 pets, and from then on I continued to have pets well into my life. I am very familiar with the necessary care for dogs and cats ands have a deep passion for animal wellness and safety. I would love to take care of your pet! :) I’m currently available on all weekdays for the month of July and only working part-time in the month of August. This means I will have a surmountable amount of free time to take care of your cats and dogs! I live in an incredibly pet friendly apartment near the center of Hartford. Pets will have the freedom to run around outside in the yard. I have a studio apartment, so I will be able to keep a watchful eye on the pets at all times.

About: I have loved dogs and pets for as long as I can remember! Growing up, my home was always filled with multiple dogs, which taught me firsthand how to manage different personalities, energy levels, and care routines. When I left for college, I made the heartbreaking but responsible choice to rehome my dogs with amazing families. I knew that with my intense school schedule, I wouldn’t have the time, energy, or availability they truly deserved. To me, a pet's well-being always comes first. Now that my schedule is open and stable, I am eager to get back to working with animals! I am using this time to gain even more hands-on experience before I am ready to adopt a dog of my own again. By booking with me, your pet will get my full, undivided attention, lots of love, and the highest level of responsible care. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I recently graduated from college and have a few completely open months this summer before starting my full time career in September! Because of this, my schedule is incredibly open, flexible, and completely open for pet care. My personal daily routine revolves around fitness, going to the gym, and staying as active as possible. I absolutely love going on long, frequent walks, so looping your dog into my daily routine is a perfect match! Whether your dog needs high energy outdoor exercise, frequent potty breaks, or just consistent companionship throughout the day, I have the full time, energy, and capacity to dedicate to them. Your pet will be my top priority all summer long! Your pet will enjoy a safe, secure, and incredibly peaceful stay at my house! We have a completely fenced in yard with absolutely no other resident pets, giving your dog full reign of the space. There are also no neighboring dogs sharing our fence line, making it the perfect, stress free environment for pups who get easily anxious or reactive.I live with my mom and my 15 year old sister, both of whom love animals and will occasionally be around to offer extra head scratches and love. Because it is a calm, predictable household, your pet will get highly focused attention and a structured routine tailored exactly to their needs. When caring for your pet in your home, I treat your property with the utmost respect, care, and consideration. I am exceptionally neat, organized, and mindful of your space. You can travel with total peace of mind knowing that I will not only keep your pets happy and safe, but I will also make sure to leave your home cleaner and better than I found it.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and was taking care of my dogs since I can remember! I also was a routine pet sitter for a couple families in my home town and it is my favorite thing to do. Since moving away, seeing and getting to say hi to any dogs always brightens my day so I’d love to help out and get to know your pup! I’ve cared for and pet sit for anywhere from very young puppies to seniors. I love them all! None too big or small. I’m working part time so I have plenty of time for your pups. Occasionally during the week I work evenings but I have lots of availability throughout the week and weekends! I don’t have any pets in my apartment, but I’ve got a good bit of space and I’m right by the park to take them out for walks and have some outside time!

About: in the past I have had pet dogs and I am very loving I love dogs I am very kind to them I love the way they are. perfectly depending on the schedules a bit but see, they would be great it's good to experience things in every flexible hour. It’s fine ! I love pets, I would take great care of them because I play with them and I offer my affection and love to them and make their owners feel in the best hands.

About: Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. From a young age, I naturally took on the responsibility of helping care for my family’s dogs, making sure they were fed, exercised, groomed, and given plenty of attention and affection. Providing a safe, loving, and structured environment has always been important to me. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all temperaments, including administering medication, basic grooming, and supporting rescue and rehoming efforts. I’ve personally rescued several animals and understand the patience, compassion, and consistency they need to feel secure and happy. I joined Rover because working with animals truly brings me joy. You can trust that your pet will be treated like family and cared for with the same love, responsibility, and attention I give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m home full-time caring for my baby and my own dogs. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m able to follow your pet’s routine closely and make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and never left alone for long periods. With a flexible schedule and a calm home environment, I can give each pet the time, care, and companionship they deserve. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with close supervision at all times. I follow each pet’s routine carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions or medications, to help them feel secure and stress-free. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and safe space to relax or play. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their normal routine to keep things familiar and comfortable. I treat every pet and home with the same care and responsibility as I would my own, so owners can feel confident their pets are in safe, loving hands.

“Olivia has been punctual, communicative and so caring and kind with our little dog Gordon! She is always keeping us updated with lots of pictures and videos when she takes him for his walks and has gone above and beyond to make sure both us and Gordon are happy and comfortable. We are lucky to have found her!”

About: My professional journey in pet-sitting and dog-walking officially began in 2021 when I joined the team at David's Pet Services. It was an incredible experience to work with them for nearly two years, but due to my relocation to a different part of Connecticut, I had to step away from my role there. I had the pleasure of serving over 50 clients, gaining valuable expertise in various aspects of pet care. I have worked with small, medium, and large dogs, as well as providing attentive care to cats. Additionally, I have extensive experience with special needs and senior pets, ensuring their comfort and well-being. Basic puppy training, de-escalation techniques, and administering oral medications are also among my areas of expertise. I am well-versed in accommodating special instructions and routines to meet the unique needs of each pet. I have even cared for exotic pets, such as birds, fish, and guinea pigs! *I hold pet first aid/CPR certification, ensuring that I am prepared to handle any unforeseen situations and provide immediate care in emergencies* Feel free to request your visit and I will make it a priority to fulfill that request. I respond very quickly to messages so if I cannot accommodate your request, you will know almost immediately. I understand the importance of a consistent routine for your furry companions - therefore, I am dedicated to tailoring my services to meet the specific requirements of each individual client. I firmly believe that every household and every pet is unique, with their own distinct needs and preferences. I understand that pets are cherished members of the family, and I approach every interaction with the understanding that their well-being is of the highest importance. From tailoring exercise routines to accommodate different fitness levels and goals, to providing a safe and nurturing environment, I am committed to delivering the highest standard of care and providing peace of mind to the pet owner.
