“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!”

“Thanks Emily and happy to schedule you again when I have to leave Zeus and Dora at home while I travel. You did a wonderful job checking in on them while I was traveling.”

“Jennifer takes great care of my boys. I never worry about them when she is taking care of them. I get great pictures and status updates each day. The only drawback is that when I do come home, they look around me to see if Jennifer is following me. Lol”

About: I grew up on a farm! So from chasing chickens to rounding up horses, I’ve had the best time being around animals. The current lady of the household is named Stix. I am full time dog mom! I work full time but always find the time for my Stix girl. We take many walks throughout the day and all the pets you could imagine! My dog at home has a safe loving environment. I’d love to provide that to your loved fur baby by staying true to your wants and needs for them.

“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!”

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. “My rates reflect Rover’s service fees. I’m happy to discuss pricing for longer stays, repeat bookings, or unique circumstances.” 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.

About: What sets me apart is that I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my whole life—dogs, cats, fish, and even the occasional bunny. Because of this, I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. I have experience walking energetic dogs, caring for playful puppies, and making sure senior pets feel safe and comfortable. My background helps me tune in to each pet’s unique routine and give them the same love and attention they’d get from you. I currently work full-time, but I have some flexibility during the week with enough notice. I hope to be working from home full-time soon, which will allow me to be home more often and more readily available to help care for your fur babies during special events, last-minute trips, or whenever you need an extra hand! As of right now, I have a domestic long-haired cat and a puppy who is a Mastiff-Pit mix. I’ve had my cat, Garrett, since he was born and my puppy, Storm, since April of this year. They are getting along much better now, although Garrett will occasionally swat at Storm when he gets a little too playful—there have never been any fights between them. Storm is very sweet, social, and full of energy, and he loves playing with other dogs. I also have extra rooms available to give visiting dogs their own space when they need a break, some quiet time, or simply a little room to themselves.

About: I grew up taking care of and pet sitting a half dozen dogs between my own and cousins’ houses. I take pride in treating your pets like family and ensuring a good time is had by all. My schedule is open allowing me to take care of your dogs in your home, mine, or engage in a daily walk schedule, plan etc. I’m happy to oblige to the care of your pets in your home, but generally wouldn’t be boarding, so to say, animals in my own home. I have a vehicle outfitted with a safety net, as well as the experience to know that dogs can surprise you and it’s better safe than sorry. Leashes are constantly held and my attention is not often distracted from your pet while they’re in my care!

“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!!”

“Mariah was excellent! She was concerned and caring. She made me feel like our two cats were in the hands of someone who actually cared about them, not just a person who fed them and then left. We’ve found our new pet sitter. Thank you, Mariah!”

About: I've been helping out families I know with dog and cat sitting since 2020 and am ready to do it in a more formal way. ——- Here's the story: my behaviorally-complex bestie turned me into a dog trainer, and now my day job is helping other families like mine. I am a Certified Professional Dog Trainer-Knowledge Assessed (CPDT-KA) and Fear Free Certified Professional (FFCP). ——- I like to take things slow when I meet a new pet, unless they're not into that kind of thing and would rather go straight to sharing our personal space. I can take a hint...because I've spent time learning body language! ——— I believe in meeting an individual's needs based on their responses to activities. We can find all kinds of projects to fulfill your pet's physical, mental, and emotional needs. Enrichment is the key! ——- I also have lots of experience caring for reptiles and amphibians, and I share my home with two snakes. 🐍 I work full-time from home, and have a flexible work schedule. This makes it easier to fit caring for folks' pets in the comfort of their own home into my schedule. As a Fear Free Certified Professional, the comfort of the pet in front of me is my #1 concern. I want to meet your pets before I drop in, so let's set up a meet and greet! ----- I love engaging pets with mentally stimulating activities that allow the expression of their natural behaviors. Since I build enrichment plans for pets for a living, I tend to find creative ways to incorporate what is available to help pets use their bodies and brains to have a good time.

About: Howdy, there I’m Jayla! I’ve been working with pets and animals for a few years now. I have experience with animals of many different species, ages, and sizes. I’ve worked with cats to hamsters to farm animals! I’ve given animals the proper medications that were needed. I absolutely love working with pets and animals they bring me so much joy and purpose! I am currently working part-time so that allows me more time to spend with your pets! I am currently available Monday-Friday from 8:45am-2:00pm and later that evening 6:45pm-9:30pm. No day is the same, so I might have some free time in between! I have a fenced in yard, and plenty of space for your fur baby to get some exercise. The pets that come to visit, love how peaceful the environment is, they have plenty to explore.

About: I have owned and taken care of a lot of dogs in the past 10 years. Friends, family and neighbors have trusted that I take great care of their fur babies! I offer overnight care in your home as well as walking and drop-ins! I am a self employed hair stylist so I can pretty easily modify my schedule to accommodate you and your dogs personal needs! I work 4-5 days a week so I am looking for something to do in my free time. I always prefer to have a run-down on how you take care of your dog and understand your personal routine with the dog so that I can mimic that to the best of my ability.

“Thank you for being on time and taking good care of Riley.”

About: The camradiere of people and dogs is a special bond. They love, unconditionally, and deserve the same, in return. Happy to be one of their 'accepted'. Monday-Thursdays are best, but not limited. I'm semi-retired, just said goodbye to my close friend, a 14 year old Labarador. Wanting to continue my relationships with canines. I will adhere to the wishes of the pet owner, and follow any specific instructions they give, for both pet, and home guidelines. Very respectful.

About: I've grown up with animals throughout my life and currently am going to school for psychology while working as a Vet Tech. I have been dog-sitting, cat-sitting, house sitting, play times, and dog-walking for the past 12 years for neighbors and family, as well as people from my mom's work and their neighbors. I have trained my dogs I currently have and have been through the puppy stages multiple times. For the time being I am available all day everyday for whatever you may need whether that be mid day walks or just a playtime visit I don't provide services in my own home due to my apartment’s dog policy but I will gladly go to your home so your animals are still having someone play with them and give them love.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I had big dogs as pets and I have experience dog sitting both big and small dogs. I work part-time in the evenings so I can drop in to check on your dogs or puppies during the day. I'm available 9am to 4pm I am not able to care for dogs at my own home, but if I were to care for your dog in your home I would give them plenty of pets and make sure they're given plenty of attention.

About: I have cared for cats and dogs my whole life! I've personally had 5 dogs and 5 cats (at different times in my life) and I've cared for many more! I specialize in caring for bigger dogs such as Pit Bulls, Rotties, and Great Pyrenees, I love animals and want to see they get the most loving and compassionate care! I am currently not working a typical job so I have more than enough time to spend with your fur babies and am willing to make any schedule work! I live in a townhouse attached to an apartment complex where I have a small fenced in yard and an available dog run. I have two kitties of my own but they are comfortable being kept in the bedroom if your babies aren't fully comfortable with kitties!

“Alexander & Jaycee were phenomenal with Callie! We had such a wonderful experience with Alexander & Jaycee. From start to finish, everything was incredibly smooth and stress free. They were attentive, communicative, and clearly cared so much about Callie. She was comfortable, well cared for, and happy the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind. What truly stood out was their flexibility and willingness to help at the last minute. They were so accommodating and responsive when we needed them most. It is clear they genuinely love what they do, and that made all the difference. We are beyond grateful for the care they provided and would absolutely trust them again with Callie. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”
