“Hunter was prompt and attentive to my needs for my cats! One day a bear got into my trash and she even offered to clean it up! I have one cat that is very difficult to find and she went out of her way to find him and take a picture! I am used to detailed updates about how the check in went, but she did take pictures and text me throughout the visit so that was great! Definitely recommend!”
About: I have had and taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. I work from home and have the freedom to be available most of the day and on short notice. I will be reliable, careful and thoughtful with your pets and in your home I work from home and have freedom all hours of the day to come and go.

“Steve was the absolute best! He was very accommodating to moving a scheduled day we had planned to another day and time. He did so well with both of my dogs and he was very attentive and sent us a lot of pictures of his time with them. We will happily welcome him back whenever!”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and experienced dog lover who has cared for a wide range of breeds, including Labs, Mini Pins, Beagles, German Shepherds, Boxers, and French Bulldogs. I’ve worked with both energetic puppies and older rescue dogs, so I’m comfortable handling everything from basic training to providing extra patience and care for dogs who may be anxious or need a little more attention. I’m very intuitive when it comes to animals and take pride in understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing and feeling safe, I’ll make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines, training methods, or special instructions you have. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐾 I currently work part-time while going through a career change and taking online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. Because of this, I’m able to dedicate real, unhurried quality time to your furry loved one rather than rushing through visits or walks. My routine allows me to be dependable and accommodating for a variety of care needs, whether it’s daytime visits, walks, or extended time with your pet. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pet gets the attention, consistency, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to carefully listen to and understand your specific instructions, routines, and preferences so I can provide care that feels familiar and consistent for your pet. I am highly attentive and detail-oriented, ensuring that all rules—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise needs, or home guidelines—are followed exactly as requested. I respect your home and your pet’s environment, creating a calm, secure, and stress-free experience while you’re away. You can trust that your furry family member will be cared for with patience, responsibility, and genuine attention to their individual needs.
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover and dependable caregiver based in Simsbury, Connecticut. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog and cat in my care with the same love, attention, and respect that I would give my own. I work from home, so your pup is never alone. We have a gorgeous golden retriever (Maverick) I'm organized, responsible, and great at communicating. I know how important it is for pet parents to receive updates and have peace of mind while they're away. Whether it's daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I'll make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels and enjoy spending time outdoors, in our fenced-in yard, going for walks, playtime, and exercise. I can also follow specific feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special routines your pet may need. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Why Choose Me? Reliable and professional Excellent communication and photo updates Flexible scheduling Comfortable following detailed care instructions Patient, attentive, and genuinely love animals I'm at home full time and study part time. I love getting out and about and know all the great trails and spots your dog will love! We have a fenced-in area for your dog, but we'll mostly be out exploring. When we get home, your pup will be snuggled up on the couch, resting after a long day.
“If I could give 10 stars I would! She stepped in last minute when we needed a cat sitter for our 2 week trip- and let me just say she goes above and beyond! She was kind, timely, attentive, and thorough in every way. It's the little things when you leave your cats for that long-I loved that she took the time to cuddle & play, shared daily pictures, kept things tidy, and offered to do some extras while we were gone. She is truly amazing!”
About: I work from home so your dog will receive constant supervision and companionship. A typical day includes regular bathroom breaks every few hours, interactive playtime, and scheduled feedings. We enjoy neighborhood walks and playing in the yard to burn off energy, followed by plenty of winding-down time on the couch in the evening. I work from a home office. I have one dog who spends their day with a mix of sleeping and playing. We take multiple outdoor breaks each day. I live in a home with a yard. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I offer a secure environment, constant supervision, and strict adherence to your care instructions.
About: I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for a puppy and two orange cats with varying needs, including medical care and anxiety management. I’m comfortable with medications, special routines, and recognizing individual pet personalities. My experience with an anxious cat taught me to be patient and observant while creating calm, structured environments. I treat every pet like family and keep owners updated throughout their time away. I work remotely Monday-Friday on a flexible but structured schedule (7am-4pm or 10am-6pm), which allows me to reliably fit pet care into my work day. Remote work means I can provide local visits and midday check-ins, and I’m particularly well-suited for pets with medical needs or anxiety that benefit from frequent attention and stability. I’m detail-oriented, punctual, and follow your instructions precisely. I am especially attuned to anxious pets or those with medical needs. I watch for common behavioral and health changes, communicate regularly with updates, and treat every pet like family.
About: When I was 10 I joined a dog training program through my school, that’s where my training experience began. I provide a premium, low-volume dog care experience for owners who want their dog to have more one-on-one attention in a calm home environment. Your dog won’t be just one of many in a crowded space. I keep my care more personal so each dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. I have a big yard for dogs to enjoy, but my indoor space is smaller, so I am very intentional about keeping the number of dogs low. That means I can focus on your dog’s comfort, safety, and overall experience much more closely. This is a great fit for dogs who do better with a quieter setting and for owners who value quality of care over high-volume boarding or daycare. I generally only take one to a few dogs at a time unless they are from the same household. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs. I took care of my childhood dog for 17 years of her long, beautiful life. I have experience working with small senior dogs specifically and I know all the little things that they appreciate. I also have experience with large dogs and can handle very big strong dogs. I also love hiking with dogs so if you have an energetic dog you need to burn off energy I am your guy. I have an acre yard with a fenced in front yard in a nice area. Any dog that boards with me would be treated like my own dog and let out very frequently to go to the bathroom and play outside. I would always remain home with your dog. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m currently a fully remote student so I am fully available. If I board a pet I will be with them full time to make sure they receive the care they deserve. I have a fenced in front yard, and a good amount of unfenced land in the back. My dog is very friendly and would keep your pet great company. He loves dogs and cats. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but would love to give your dog the pet experience and treat them like my own. I live in a nice are and have great access to the woods nearby as well.

“Nina is very responsible and took great care of my new puppy, Charlotte. She played with her, took her outside gave her a snack and made sure she is left in her enclosed area. Will definitely re-hire!”
“Kelsey was fantastic! I needed a new dog sitter last minute so we could go to a wedding that night, and she not only accepted the job, but came over in the afternoon for a lengthy meet and greet. My 1 1/2 year old pup is 75 lbs and very strong, and I had no worries that she could handle him even if they ran in to other people and dogs on their walk. Rocky took to her right away, and we were able to relax and have fun at the wedding. Thanks Kelsey!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jennifer was absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of our dog, Coco, while we were away on vacation. She was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated, which gave us peace of mind knowing Coco was in great hands. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and treated Coco like her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We would absolutely book with Jennifer again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!

Sarah responded to my last minute request for dog walking needs super promptly and she has been so easy to communicate with.. on top of that, she’s easy going and trustworthy. My first week back to work after a recent move went SO smoothly knowing that Junie was in capable and caring hands.
Last minute dog care and she was wonderful! She even helped pick up some items that fell outside the house due to a storm while we were away. Plus she communicated anything that she had concerns about our house we were out of town. Very detailed reports and cute pictures of our doggie :) 100% recommend and definitely use her again!
