Dog Walkers in Central Village, CT

“To Whom This May Concern, I am writing this letter on behalf of my sister Patrice Carrignan in regards to her potential employment with rover. I would like to offer my enthusiastic recommendation for Patrice as I believe she would be an asset and responsible team member for your agency. Throughout her life I have watched her grow within each work environment as a reliable and professional employee. Animals have always been a passion for Patrice growing up as she has had her own Dogs that she has raised and taken great care of. Her personality is bubbly, friendly and loving to everyone around her. The amount of happiness I see within her while working with at the animal shelter shows her compassion to help within this field. I trust her to care for my pets and she would be a great choice to care for yours to.”

“Michelle Wisniewski will be a wonderful companion for any pet. She has many years of experience with all types of animals from guinea pigs to horses. She is a loving and caring human highly skilled and pays attention to detail. I highly recommend Michelle for pet care and or sitting services. She is extremely reliable and the pets will just adore her.”

About: I've been caring for all kinds of animals since I was 12 years old. Horses, pigs, chickens, dogs, cats, you name it! My love for animals is what inspired me to become a vet tech and I want to continue providing care for many years to come. I have several references available upon request. I'm currently working for my grandparents, which has enabled me to have a very flexible schedule. I'm actively searching for a part-time position at a vet hospital, but will still have time to dedicate as a pet sitter. I prefer to care for animals in the comfort of their own homes. Having a daily routine that is specific to an animal provides stability, and removing them to a completely new area they don't recognize can be possibly damaging and cause significant stress. I will adapt to your pet's schedule and help make them feel at ease knowing they won't be forcibly removed from their home.

About: I have had dogs my whole life and have pet -walked for years. I love animals and I love all aspects of caring for them. Open availability - I am working as a freelancer and have a flexible schedule. Sixth sense with animals - very intuitive and healing with them. I will not be doing home care I will not be doing home care I will not be doing home care I will not be doing home care

“Keshia was excellent with walking our little dog! She was very responsive and would be in touch after a walk if there was anything important for us to know. Highly recommend her!”

“Sarah and her family are a joy and took such good care of Monty while we were away. We loved the note and photo they left for us at the end of their care. I highly recommend them!”

“Kala is punctual and very patient with my super hyper pups. She has been a great help as I adjust to a new work schedule. Hope to use her again very soon.”

“Lauren was great with Maggie and they had a great walk! She is always punctual, gives updates on how the visits go and even takes photos! We always feel our Maggie is safe with Lauren and she’s getting a good walk in. She will work with you, is flexible and always happy to help!”

“Samantha-Nicole was a perfect fit for me and Bob Marley...you can do a meet and greet first which I feel was important...it allowed me to answer questions provided by rover.com about leash behavior...any food aggression...coming into contact with cats...squirrels and other dogs etc...Her qualifications are over the top...has horses...4 dogs...does obedience training...and works at a doggie daycare...and is CPR certified...she comes highly recommended and I will for sure have absolutely no problem using her again...we loved her!”

“She was very knowledgeable and kind to my Cats. She told me she had a Veterinary Assistant degree and it shows. I often ask her things about my babies and she is right there to help. They love her. She is always welcome.”

“Kendra was amazing! I was recommended to her by a friend when I had an unexpected trip out of town. She took such good care of my pup Daisy. She sent me pupdates and content so I could stay connected. Kendra is a fellow dog owner, and that was really apparent. I feel like my dog was more sad about leaving her care, than she was when I left 😂 Couldn’t speak more highly!”

About: Because Your Pet Deserves the Best, Even When You’re Away. I will care for your pet small, large, fluffy or feathery when you can't. Sometimes things come up or a well deserved vacation... there is no need when you pick me to worry about your loved pet family. I will treat them with respect, compassion, and love they deserve. I know that they are missing you. I will make sure that they have their own mini getaway when I am with them. This can be a walk, cuddles, or just tossing the ball. I can do stop ins for potty and food.. I can stop in and take them for a walk, or just stop in and play with them. I love all weather and am prepared for anything. Snow, rain, cold or storm. I am a stay at home mom who like any mom I am ready for anything. Last minute appointment (we all know that unexpected things happen. Don't worry about your pet message me), cleanups, accidents, snacks,protective (nothing will happen to your loved one with me), and even fun days outs. I am a mom and I am always ready for anything. It would be a honor to be invited to your home to check in on your loved one. I am extremely flexible and would enjoy meeting your pets. I would always treat your animals as I would want mine to be treated.

“Maya is a caring animal lover! She puts all her energy into making sure your animal is loved and cared for. She is incredibly responsible, respectful, and clean!”

About: I have an entire side yard fenced in and dedicated to our dogs, we have a dog room, dog feeding area and they have free range to the couches. We do a lot of fetch outside, lots of running and more. I work from home and will have all the time in the world for your fur baby. We have 3 children who are also animal lovers, so it won’t just be myself giving attention to your animals. Our dogs love car rides to pick up the kids from school and get extra attention from their friends too. My hours are very flexible and I can work with what ever accommodations are needed. If your pet needs to be crated, that is an option too. Plenty of room. I’m currently a stay at home mom. Boarding anytime, as my availability is wide open. Our dogs are on a schedule throughout the week, which means I’m always home. I have a fenced in spacious side yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep yours company, crating is always an option as well if needed.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. Whether it’s letting them out, going for walks, playing, bathing, feeding, or simply keeping them company while you’re away, I’m the one for all your dog needs. Along with dogs I’ve also cared for many different animals from ones you find on a farm to some with scales and will be sure to provide the best care for all. I work part time and would have plenty of time to spend with your pets. Available to spend all night with your pets. While you’re away I’ll be sure to keep their tails wagging! I love taking dogs with me on my hikes, when you book with me I’ll be sure to send lots of pictures updating you on all our adventures of the day!!

“Very conscientious”

“Michaela was great with our dog Lulu! She sent pictures and updates and took care of our girl even in some pretty awful weather. Will book again!”

“I highly recommend Taylor for any pet care needs. Every time she has watched my house (2 dogs and 4 cats) for me she sends me updates and pictures regularly. All of my animals absolutely LOVE her. She even cared for my cat who needed special care and daily medicine. She is kind, gentle, reliable and very professional.”

“Brooke was absolutely amazing! ???”

“Nicole loves animals. She helped me learn to give cats medicine at the cat shelter we both volunteered at, and showed great compassion and care towards these sick little ones. I honestly believe she will go above and beyond in caring for your dogs. Be it walking them, and/or caring for them in your home. Her compassion towards animals shows not only in her care, but also in how animals respond to her. She has a fantastic work ethic, never slacking, always putting the animals first. Her care and attention to detail saved two very sick kittens, who are now my daughter's wonderful companions.”
