Pet Sitting in Centerbrook

“Fran is a wonderful, caring, communicative sitter. She was punctual, sent thorough updates, and went above and beyond to make sure our dog felt safe and cared for. Highly recommend!”

“Cayton is very kind, personable, and flexible! She has great communication and provided us a thorough report and photos on every single visit with our dog. She even sent us a notification when she was checking in and out of her visits. She was kind enough to bring up both of our garbage cans up our long driveway as well and she did that out of courtesy! Highly recommend her for your pet care needs.”

“I highly recommend Melissa. She is dependable and kind. She keeps you informed every step of the way and this makes vacationing with animals a pleasure. Thank you Melissa!”

“Laura was great! We had a last minute dilemma, where we needed a morning sitter for our two dogs, and she was able to help us. She is consistent and reliable, and took the time to come meet the dogs before we left on our trip. I definitely recommend her!”

Jessica H.

“Highly recommend Katherine! In addition to being reliable, a definite "pet person", her communication was fantastic - and she takes great pictures! Our cat tends to get "mad" at us when we travel - because of Katherine's daily interaction with him, I felt he would be ok and not be upset and sure enough when we returned he was his same self and not mad at all! I will hire Katherine again asap - she's a true pet-lover and also a great person - can't say enough positive things about her!”

“Holly M. is amazing! She is the best pet sitter I have ever hired. It is very clear how much she loves animals and how much mine love her. My dog is initially apprehensive around new people, and Holly knew exactly how to handle it. She is so friendly and easy to work with, and she is reliable, trustworthy and she goes way above and beyond. Lulu can't wait to see her again! I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

About: I am a trained pastry chef, and have worked in the industry for over 15 years. As much as I love working with food, animals are my heart. With my business degree, I have decided to start my own dog walking business and I absolutely love it! I have been doing it full time since August '23. Experience: I have three labs of my own from 4 to 12 years old, and two indoor cats. I'm very active and love walking my dogs, taking them for hikes, cooking for them, and all around making sure they're happy. I currently have several client's pups that I walk multiple times per week, sporatically, or while they're on vacation. Please send me a message with details about your needs so we can chat more! I have several years of experience of volunteer dog walking from the SPCA. I earned a Pet First Aid and CPR certification through the RECOVER Initiative (Reassessment Campaign on Veterinary Resuscitation), created by Cornell University of Veterinary Medicine. I am a dog walker full time, though I limit the amount of clients I take on so that I can be flexible and available for the ones I have. Currently, I am looking for a few additional long term relationships with pups and their parents who need routine pet care M, T, W, Th and/ or Friday, at least 1 day per week. I service within a ten mile radius of Westbrook, including Old Saybrook, Essex, Clinton, Killingworth, Old Lyme. I tend to take care of pets from 8 am to 5 pm, but am available later or earlier at times, and on weekends on occasion for my regular clients if need be. I am very flexible when it comes to overnights and extended stays for regular clients, and am usually available with plenty of notice. Ask me about me about my *special* routine client rates! Can't wait to hear from you! Every pup and kitty has their own, individual personality/ways of communicating and I am here to take the time to understand them from your perspective, while over time learning from them as well. I value consistency and trust building with animals, and am looking forward to gaining a friendship with a member of your family. When it comes to walks, I am most comfortable using a harness if they tend to be pullers, and if they are, will work with them using gentle, verbal and reward oriented methods I've found effective on my own dogs.

“Carley was amazing with Marley! Very thorough and mindful of her needs and gave her snuggles and attention (which she loves) Would love to use Carley again!!!”

“We really like Sam! She communicates well, was very responsive and relates to animals. We know our fur baby is in good hands with Sam when we can't be there.”

Susan M.

“Thank you so much Erin for dropping in on my pups last minute. You were very clear on your arrival expectations and you followed my care instructions perfectly. The dogs clearly were excited to see & play with you!”

About: My husband and I recently returned from Costa Rica where we volunteered on a dog farm assisting with bathing, grooming and giving lots of love to almost 2,000 rescued dogs that live there. My husband also has a separate rover account under Maxi S. During my high school/college years my mother trained 5 different dogs for guiding eyes for the blind which I helped in the training process as well while home. I also started housesitting and caring for pets of local neighbors at the young age of 10. We have always had dogs in my home. I couldn’t imagine living without a dog. I have experience with dogs of all ages, puppies to senior dogs. I myself have a 9 year old cocker spaniel who thinks she is a human. I understand all pet owners and their pets have different needs and will respect any rules required to give your pet the care they need. I will treat your dog like my own. My family just returned from Costa Rica. My husband and I are both looking for flexible part time work which allow us to still care for our 1.5 year old son. You can also find my husbands separate rover account under maxi S. At the moment our schedule is open and flexible but as we find work our schedules will be changing depending. We have a good sized yard which is not fenced in but in a quiet neighborhood with a cul-de-sac. I don’t usually crate my dog, but if your dogs are crated I am familiar with crate training. I am a flexible person and am able to modify based on your pets needs.

“Marisa went above and beyond during her check-ins with our strong-minded Stella. She came the day before the first check-in to meet Stella and made a big effort to get to know her and connect with her. Stella now counts Marisa as one of her best people. We very much appreciated the pictures, videos and reports. It gave us peace of mind to enjoy our time away knowing Stella was happy and taken care of. We highly recommend Marisa and look forward to the next time.”

About: I have a depth and variety of experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve worked at a doggy daycare, where I handled multiple dogs at once in group settings, giving me valuable experience with a wide range of breeds and personalities. I’m very familiar with reading canine body language and making sure play stays safe and respectful. I’ve also cared for both puppies and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable adjusting my care to their unique needs—whether it’s helping with early training for a new pup or making sure an older dog is comfortable and supported throughout the day. On top of that, I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, which has taught me to be attentive, patient, and genuinely connected to each dog I spend time with. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. My schedule is currently very flexible and accommodating, which allows me to take on regular walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting as needed. I truly enjoy spending my time with your furry friends, so fitting pet care into my day feels natural and fulfilling, whether it’s a quick walk or an overnight stay. I only offer care in my client’s home, and I always do my best to make sure your pet feels comfortable and safe in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and any specific needs they may have. Whether it’s feedings, walks, playtime, or medications, I follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet and home with the utmost respect and care.

“Absolutely the best care possible. Adriana and Christopher went above and beyond to care for our pet and home. They are extraordinarily loving, considerate and trustworthy and leave you with the comfort and knowledge that everything is being looked after.”

About: Hi, I enjoy all ages of dogs and cats. I have had many, many dogs and cats growing up raising them from newborn puppies or kittens all the way into their senior years. I am well experienced in training puppies, playing with active cats/dogs and caring for sick or aged pets as well. I have also volunteered for many rescue organizations, most recently Meriden Humane Society. The joy animals bring me, far surpasses any other career I've had throughout the years. I currently am transitioning into part-time retirement of running my own HVAC company and I would like to start doing what I enjoy more; caring for animals(and plants!). I currently have a very active, under one, golden retriever and a 6 year old golden retriever. We love to go outside and throw the ball, play in the wading pool, or let the dogs play together in the backyard.

“Matt is the best around! The dogs love him! Would recommend him 100%”

About: I have owned animals my whole life, from cats and dogs to fish and geckos. I have also volunteered for labs4rescue and worked for We let the dogs out pet sitting company. I do work full time, but my evening and weekends are open to help out with your fur babies! I am able to be flexible around your schedule. My pets are treated as part of the family, as they are my family. I will treat your animals with love and respect. I am very good at reading animals. Some are full of energy, some of them are scared of new people. I am good at getting animals comfortable with me.

“Brianna was great! Prompt with her visits and added bonus that she is a vet tech. She was so great with my fur baby!”
