Dog Walkers in Broad Brook, CT

About: I grew up with two amazing dogs—one is now 17 and the other is a playful 4-year-old—so I’ve cared for pups at every stage of life. From energetic walks to gentle senior care, I understand what dogs need to feel happy, safe, and loved. Whether it’s belly rubs, fetch, or sticking to their routine, I’m here to make sure your dog feels right at home. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I'm available Monday through Friday. I am happy to spend quality time with your pet, whether that means walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I make sure any cat or dog that I am caring for is getting fed their daily amount, they have gone on walks or used the bathroom (cleaning the litter daily if it’s cats), they get plenty of water, and make sure they get plenty of stimulation through play time.

“Mark has been awesome with Chance. My work hours changed and Marks walks with Chance give him the fresh air and exercise he loves so much. Mark has been very flexible with my requests when my schedule changes. I know Chance appreciates the attention!”

About: I will take care of your dog or cat like they are my own. I currently have an almost 3 year old Bernedoodle who I trained myself when she was a puppy. My love of animals started when I was 5 years old and I got my first dog. He came home in a shoebox and grew into 90lbs of German Shepherd that was gentle as could be with his little girl. Throughout the years I had several types of animals from hamsters to lizards I don't think I was ever without a pet! Let me be there for your pets, we will have a lot of fun! I run my own business so my hours are extremely flexible. I am able to take same day appointments with just a few hours notice if needed. This flexibility allows me to take care of puppies as well. Whether your dog is a cuddle bug or one that loves to run I am the sitter for you. I can keep them on their normal schedules while watching your dog and maybe throw in an extra walk or play time! I am great at following directions to make sure my time with them goes smoothly.

“Karinna is wonderful. My girl always looks forward to her walks, and her grandma appreciates her too. Thank you for your kindness. Happy holidays”

About: Hey Pet Parents! My name is Shea and I’m super glad you’re considering me to watch your fur babies while you’re away! I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember and I’ve been pet sitting for quite some time now. I myself have a 5 year old Australian Cattle Dog, a Green Cheek Conure, and a handful of chickens too! I’ve also had experience working in a pet grooming salon, where I gained extensive knowledge on signs of stress in animals as well as first-aid. I understand all pets have different needs and I’m able to take the time to get to know them and adapt to help them feel safe while you’re away! Nobody is more prepared than I am to care for your little buddies! My schedule is very flexible. I pet sit full-time and I keep my Rover schedule up to date daily! That being said, I do only accept bookings after doing a meet and greet to ensure all parties (especially your pets!) feel as comfortable as possible during the booking. I will follow any instructions left for me about your pet closely! Please let me know of any specific parts of their routine you would like me to continue during our booking. I’m here to make your pet (and you!) feel as stress-free as possible. I also understand your privacy is important, I’ll do everything in my power to make you feel safe to welcome me in your home while you’re away :) *** Dog walks only: please note that during the summer, if it is too hot outside, walks will be shortened. I will still stay the full amount of time booked, it just will not be outside the whole time. I’ll replace the remaining walk time with play time and pets! I will still take the pups outside to use the bathroom, but for their safety I will limit time outside in extreme weather. Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions regarding this!

“Amber is great! Charlie is usually shy when he meets a new person, but he warmed up to her right away! She took him on a nice, long walk and sent great pictures. I feel confident using her routinely going forward! 10/10!”

“Katie was phenomenal and Han Solo loved going on walks with her. Katie also went above and beyond and I can't appreciate her enough.”

About: Hi! I’m Megan, a lifelong dog lover based in Manchester and South Windsor, Connecticut. I had the joy of caring for my amazing Pittie—Samantha—for 13 years. She was my shadow, my jogging buddy, and my heart.

I’m happy to keep things neat, water plants, bring in mail, and make sure everything feels just the way you left it. I’m calm, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m happy to send photo updates after every walk, drop-in, or overnight stay so you can stay connected with your fur baby while you’re away.

About: I love all cats and dogs, big and small. I’ve been around pets since I was young and recently adopted a cat of my own! Would love to care for your pets and make sure they’re in good hands! I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to watch your furry friends. Would prefer advance notice to make sure it is a good fit and everything works out! I will try my best to work around your schedule. I can watch your pups in your home preferred as I live in an apartment that doesn’t allow dogs. I can watch cats in my home depending, would love to chat to hear more!

About: I have been around all types of pets my entire life. I’ve taken care of dogs from Newfoundland’s to chihuahuas. I’m great with pets and have been responsible for cleaning, feeding, walking, and playing with lots and lots of dogs. I am a big animal person and want to do something with it in the future. In my childhood I would go to my aunts house often to take care of her 5 Newfoundland’s and bulldog. I would take my sisters chihuahua to the mountains of Colorado. Every nearby neighborhood I grew up by as a child knew me for my exceptional dog care and would want me to walk and dog sit for them all the time. It comes natural for someone when it is what they really love to do. I am currently self employed so I can make time or move my schedule around to accommodate your pets schedule needs. Open availability for right now. I give my cat lots of love and affection. I also take care of proper feeding and cleaning. Lots of experience feeding and walking dogs as well.

“We have a 5 year old male, high energy, German Shepherd. Mac weighs 115 lbs. and over the years we have struggled to find a dog walker that is confident enough to walk him. Ana is a perfect fit for him! She is familiar with German Shepherds and larger breeds in general, can read dog behavior and most importantly, Mac respects her.”

“Charlie really seemed to like Joyce at the meet and greet. She was on time and because of heat Charlie did not want to walk far so Joyce spent the remaining time play with him.”
