House Sitting in Charter Oak

“Joyce did a great job with Bellini. She regularly sent me images and updates on my pet's behavior throughout my time away. Communicative, reliable, and an obvious pet lover - I felt confident my cat and my home were in good hands during my vacation. I'll definitely be working with Joyce again in the future. 5 star recommend!!”

“Anthony was so patient with our boy. He tried everything to get him to take his meds, walked him and hung out with him, establishing trust. We were very nervous about having a new sitter. And 13 dog doesn’t adapt well. But Tony did a great job.”

“Olivia did an awesome job petsitting/housesitting my two dogs for two weeks. She sent photo updates daily and made homemade food for them when the supply we prepared in advance ran out. She was a pleasure to work with and we would hire her again!”

“Yasmin is such a sweet and patient soul! She has such a calm disposition that put my family at ease to trust in taking care of our fur babies. Such a wonderful experience working with her. We feel lucky to have met such a gem of a dog sitter who truly LOVES dogs. Upon booking she offered to meet our dogs the night before to meet and get acclimated with the dogs. This was comforting…and she even brought each of them a little chew toy to play with! On the day of our booking she was great with communication, updates, and sending pictures of our girls!! It was awesome to see them having fun, playing and resting throughout the day. My German Shepherd is very high energy and she took her high play drive like a pro! When I got home she was happy and mellow from being active all day! From my family to yours, thank you Yasmin!!💗”

About: I raised guide dogs and helped train guide dogs for the blind. I also was a vet tech for over 5 years. I’ve pet sit for friends and family as well. I work from home and communicate very well with clients. I can make time to be there for you and you fur-baby when you need me. I am patient with animals and love them as my own. I’m knowledgeable with giving meds if needed and an animals behavior. I know how to deal with pets and read their body language.

“Maxx is an amazing pet sitter!!!”

“Skylar was great with my dogs. I really appreciate her taking great care of them and our house while we were gone on short notice. I most definitely will hire her again.”

“Short Version: Stacey is incredible and you should not hesitate to book her services, you will absolutely not regret it. Long Version: We hired Stacey for house-sitting for 4 days while my wife and I were out of town. Our dog, Padmé, is a 7mo old Shepinois puppy that has lots and lots of energy. We got our dog during the pandemic so she is very attached to us and this was the first time she would be without us overnight. Stacey came to meet us once shortly after we requested the booking, and once again right before our trip. This was to make sure Padmé was ok with Stacey and to go over the plan while we were gone. Stacey was very attentive and understanding of all the information we had to give her about Padmé and we know it was vital in making sure Padmé had a stress-free time while we were gone. Stacey took care of Padmé just the same as if it was my wife or I, and that means the world to us. She made sure Padmé had lots of attention and love, and also lots of exercise, both mental and physical. While we were away Stacey was very responsive to texts and provided multiple updates with photos each day. We had a lot of anxiety about leaving Padmé, and Stacey really helped put our minds at ease, and kept them at ease while we were gone. I will absolutely use Stacey's services again, and I strongly recommend her for any needs you may have as well. She is excellent!!”

“Robert was such a great sitter, he responded quickly and kept me updated. He really is a dog lover and it shows in how he took care of my babies.”

“We couldn't have picked a better sitter for our dog and guinea pigs! Leilani took excellent care of them while we were on vacation. She took my dog on walks, trips to the dog park, a run, and even a play date with her dog and family. She sent detailed updates every day with pictures and videos. I could tell my dog was having the time of his life just based on his expression in the pictures! If you are looking for an enthusiastic and reliable caregiver for your pet, look no further.”

About: Growing up, I once said I wanted to be a vegetarian. Of course, little me meant that she wanted to be a veterinarian, because of my love for animals! Being a quiet person, I have always found a sense of peace being around animals. I grew up with a dog named Cassie, and took care of her the best a little kid can, until she passed away from old age at 17 in 2017. That year, I got my rabbit Oliver, my sweet baby who passed away last year. After Cassie's passing, my family adopted an older dog named Sadie. Sadie was adopted to be my mom's "nurse" as she fought cancer, and ended up being a dog who brought me much comfort after my mother lost the battle to cancer. Pets are great listeners and I hold a lot of appreciation for all animals because of that. I am pet sitting to help save money to pursue higher education! I am free for most services most days due to summer break! I will be gone after September as I am moving into college but I appreciate any bookings I can get to help me pay for college! Thank you! When caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure they feel safe and comfortable by following their usual routines, feeding schedules, and providing plenty of attention and playtime. I always maintain a clean environment (for both the pet and for the sitter when they return) and give them regular walks.

About: I’ve had pets all my life, I currently have 3 amazing dogs who I love more than life, and 6 other pets. I am in collage majoring in animal science to become a veterinarian for our furry friends! I work in fast food 3 times a week for 4 hours, and i just finished my summer class so i have a lot of free time. As i am studying to be a vet, taking care of dogs and other animals is my passion and what i love to do, i put my full attention to it, to make sure they are getting the best treatment that they deserve!

“We absolutely love Suzanne. She's our go to pet sitter from now on. Our three dogs were very well taken care of, and calmer to see us after a weekend away than they usually are after a day at work.”

About: My name is Abby and I am 30 years old. During the year, I am a teacher but I love to jump into these side jobs to make a little extra income. I love all dogs! I have had 3 long term dogs join my family over the past 12 years who are family to me. As of right now, I own a wiener dog who loves to hike, swim and go on runs with me. I love giving dogs cuddles, tummy rubs, and walks. Dogs with energy don't stand a chance with me since I spend lots of time with my sisters Australian Shepard. Big dogs don't scare me either as my dad has had both Great Danes and Dobermans as our family dogs growing up. I am currently a teacher on summer break, so pet care takes priority for my little dog currently. I try to make sure my dog goes outside for a walk at least 3 times a day. My complex has its own Dog Park on the property with 2 other parks near by as well. All 3 are well fenced in to provide security.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years, including my own Bichon Frise and German Shepherd. Since I was 10, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I truly enjoy bonding with each one. Whether it’s playtime, medication, or senior care, I treat every dog like family. I’m available every day, anytime you need someone to walk your dog. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long walk for exercise, or just a chance to stretch their legs and sniff around, I’ve got it covered. I tailor each walk to your dog’s needs—high-energy pups can get longer, active walks, while older dogs can enjoy a slower, more relaxed pace. I make sure they stay safe, hydrated, and happy during every outing. Rain or shine, I’m here to help your dog stay healthy and loved. I specialize in dog walking and take pride in making each walk a safe, fun, and personalized experience. Before we start, I always make sure the leash and harness are secure and comfortable. I pay close attention to the dog’s energy level, age, and any special needs—whether that means a brisk walk for exercise or a slow stroll for an older pup. I give them time to sniff, explore, and do their business without rushing. I’m always alert to traffic, other animals, and weather conditions to keep your dog safe. After the walk, I make sure they have water and are settled comfortably at home. I treat every dog with kindness, patience, and respect—just like I do with my own.

About: Besides having my own dog I am like the dog lady in the neighborhood love the dogs that I have around me when you come to my door looking for me it's quite cute I'm a young senior citizen but still active. I don't have a lot of activities as far as my weekly routine just depending on the day is what I do I give them all the attention and love that they deserve I'm very intuitive as far as what a dog wants or needs. Also I'm very clean as far as pets go and as far as my house goes

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other animals almost all my life. I also have experience with puppies, senior dogs and dogs with special needs. I myself have a special needs and senior dog. I am currently getting my masters in science online, so my schedule is very open and flexible. I am also open to any long term sitting. In my own home, my dogs are well loved and well respected. I have always believed that animals are more than just pets and are more like family members. Your pets will be treated like my family.

“Viviana was amazing with our puppy, Ollie! It’s clear that she has a true love for animals and is committed to providing excellent care. She’s also knowledgeable and gave us great feedback on what to expect during this stage (it’s our first time raising a puppy). I would have her watch Ollie again soon, and I would recommend Viviana to others in a heartbeat!”
