“Ashley took amazing care of our two kitties while we were on our honeymoon. We were able to have a stress-free trip knowing we could count on her to be there twice a day to feed them AND spend time with them! I will definitely be booking Ashley next time we go away, and you should too! She’s very sweet and intentional with animals. ❤️”

About: I've had my pets in my life but i've also looked after many pets. Sometimes I have had to look after more than one dog at a time and different ages and breeds. There has been times i have had to sleep over night with pets. I always feel a connection or a bond between animals as I believe they know our true intentions. m-f I Work at my main job which is at Webster Bank usually until 4 PM, But have off on holidays and weekends. Some nights I work late but I usually have a month ahead of what my schedule looks like. I treat anyone else's property as if it were my own or better than my own. I treat pets delicately and I like to find out what they are into, how they have fun, what treats they like etc. I am a very straight forward person and I am great communicating with. I work in my local surrounding towns and looking how I can serve.

About: Hello! I'm an animal lover and pet-parent looking to get back into pet sitting after some time away. My husband and I welcomed a few wonderful dogs into our home through Rover a few years ago. At this point, I'd like to watch animals via drop-in visits (dogs and cats!). We've received so much great care for our cats over the years--I know how important it is to have a trustworthy person watch over your animal. I'm a friendly, type-A person with a keen attention to detail, so you can depend on me to take care of everything. Beyond standard pet care, I am comfortable walking dogs and administering oral meds. Happy to answer any questions you may have ahead of booking! I work in-office 3 days a week. On those days I can do drop-in visits before 8:30am and after 5:30pm. On my WFH days, I have more flexibility and can also do lunchtime visits. I follow the owners instructions--whatever you need is what I will provide. I'm not afraid to ask questions when something is unclear. I will be respectful of your home and pet's needs.

“All good.”

“Lindsay did such a good job with Lily! She came over 3 times a day to let feed her, take her out, and exercise her. She has an incredible presence with dogs. Lily took to her immediately and she usually takes a long time with new people! I definitely plan on using Lindsay to help take care of my dogs in the future! She is always available and goes above and beyond when caring for your dog! I would trust her with my beloved Lily any day!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for more than 10 years. I have done long term house sitting for multiple dogs, as well as walking or day care. I am comfortable with all types of dogs. My schedule follows normal school hours. I am available on weekends, evenings after 5, all holidays and all summer long. My schedule is fluid during the day, so I can leave and come back as well. I have one fur baby who is very friendly, but I can also crate her. Whenever we go outside I make sure to have her leash on, and respect other’s privacy.

About: I’ve lived and worked with both dogs (all sizes) and cats since a young age. Friends and relatives have trusted me to care for their animals on a wide scale from dog walking to in-home stays. Additionally, I have spent time volunteering in animal shelters including fostering dogs from a few days to multiple month long stays working with them to find their forever homes! I am currently working part-time so I have ample time during the day to check-in on pets, take dogs on long walks, and any other care you’re looking for! I have experience with general dog training and crating if needed. I’ve worked with dogs that have a range of needs and am open to following whatever routine you normally follow with your pet!

About: Hi there, I’m Chrissie, a dog lover with 15 years of pet care experience! Beyond prior pet care and volunteer experience, I’ve had plenty of foster dogs and my own, one less than active dog currently making it all the more fun for me to keep active dogs busy. I can care for and work with dogs with most any need both health wise and behaviorally. I love getting to know dogs of all ages, sizes and personalities and will be sure to follow any routine and needs they have as instructed. Don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions if I might be a fit for what you’re looking for whether a one-time or regular need. Always happy to do a free meet-and-greet as well. Wishing you the best as you find the right care for your furry family member(s)! Although notice is great, I am happy to take last minute bookings. With my work I can easily fit my schedule to your dog's typical exercise, engagement, and feeding routine. I would care for them however you request, and however they’re used to being taken care of. I’d follow whatever care instructions you provide along with any notes shared with me during our meet and greet.

About: Hi everyone, I’m Amanda! Currently a stay at home mom raising my 5 and 6 year old human children, and my 7year old mix and crazy kitten! We’re all avid hikers and nature lovers, being outside is our absolute favorite! I grew up having dogs, mostly mixes and rescues, so I know how to gently approach pets that may have trust issues or who may be shy. With our mix having husky in her, I know all about high energy and how to get them relaxed and sleepy! Walking, running, and hiking are what we use to personally exercise our dogs so I can make sure whatever works best for your pup is what we’ll do! If needed I can be open to at home boarding, but I would first need to be sure they’d get along with my dogs :) Thank you for reading! I'm currently home full time with my kids in school, so I'm available from 9A - 2P (depending on distance) and after 5 during the week, as needed on the weekends. We have a large yard, and lead available for dogs who may need it. Currently our dog does well to stay on our property, she loves walking down to the brook for a dip!

About: I grew up with two dogs in my house that I was the main care taker of. We have also had Guinea pigs and rabbits. My work schedule rotates. So I would be available different days In the week. My schedule will be updated on that app weekly for my current schedule I will care for your pets like they are my own. I enjoy meeting new pets and making them happy. Dog walks are my favorite!

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, bunnies, and birds. Growing up with different types of animals taught me how to adapt to each pet’s unique personality, needs, and routines. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic dogs who need structured walks and play, to smaller animals that require gentle handling and consistency. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and mood to make sure every pet is happy, healthy, and comfortable. I currently have open availability, which allows me to be flexible and fully accommodate your pet’s routine. Whether your pet needs early morning visits, midday check-ins, or evening care, I can adjust my schedule to fit their needs. Because I’m not rushing between commitments, I’m able to give each pet focused, unhurried attention during every visit. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most safe and comfortable. My approach is always needs-based, meaning I follow your pet’s routine closely and adjust to their personality. whether they need lots of interaction or a calm, low-key presence.

“Zia is both trustworthy and willing to go above & beyond- I will definitely book with Zia in the future!”
