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. Whether it’s playing, going to the dog park, or just giving them love, I’m all in when it comes to pups 🐶❤️ 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. Whether it’s feeding, walking, cleaning up, or just giving them attention, I treat every pet like my own.

I have had the pleasure of having Alexa take care of my two dogs. One is older, blind, deaf, and has some dementia. The other is a rescue that was abused in his former life. They immediately took a liking to her and enjoy their visits with her. She is reliable and punctual and goes above and beyond making sure they are happy and comfortable. I appreciate the daily updates and photos. I highly recommend Alexa to anyone looking for a caring, reliable and trustworthy dog sitter.

About: We’ve owned many dogs growing and are super excited for the opportunity to be around animals while living in a new state. We've house sat for neighbors, friends and family for a number of years so please take a look at our testimonials. We both have very flexible schedules this summer! Matthew is a grad student and Mary Beth works from home in finance, so we're both available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. We love walking and biking around the West End of Hartford, but we do have cars for extra flexibility. Your pet's safety and comfort are our top priorities. When house sitting, we follow your routine closely to keep things familiar and stress-free for your pet. We’re respectful of your home and aim to leave it just as we found it—if not better. For dog walking, we use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid unsafe areas, and always keep a close eye on your dog’s comfort and energy level. During doggy daycare, your pet will have a calm, supervised environment with lots of attention, play, and breaks as needed. We're happy to accommodate special needs, medications, or quirks—just let us know!

Whenever I would go out of town, I always asked Steffen to stay with my cat because I knew he would care for him just as much as I do. He’s not only incredibly trustworthy, but also one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. Steffen always goes above and beyond for others, and I’ve seen firsthand how thoughtful and attentive he is with animals. I had total peace of mind knowing my cat was in such good hands.

Winston’s Official Review: 13/10, Would Stay Again 🐾🐾 Okay, let’s just say it: Matthew and Mary Beth are total dog whisperers. I dropped off Winston, and five minutes later he had already claimed their hearts and probably their couch. When I picked him up, he looked at me like, “Oh… you’re back? Already??” They took such amazing care of him—he went on adventures (aka walks), played like a wild puppy (he’s 7, but don’t tell him that), and probably auditioned for “World’s Most Spoiled Dog.” He came home happy, tired, and with that goofy smile he gets after living his best life. I got plenty of updates, pics of him mid-zoomie, and even one where I’m pretty sure he was helping Matthew do taxes (unclear, but impressive). If your dog wants a mini-vacation with the coolest humans around, Matthew and Mary Beth are it. Winston’s already packing his bag for next time—stuffed squirrel, squeaky hot dog, the works.
