“Brooke has been a pet owner her entire life and raised in a household that had dogs, cats and everything else from horses to chickens. With a dad who worked with canines in the service and who continues in the animal field today, she has had plenty of experience fostering animals as well. She is mature, responsible and reliable so you would never have to worry that your animal wasn’t receiving the best of care. I highly recommend Brooke as an animal care provider-she is the best!”

9. Melissa M.
About: I was previously a ER Vet Assistant/Exam room technician for 5 years. I know how to properly administer medication, cut nails, groom, and general care for a dog. I can work with dogs of any size with any type of needs. I went to a Vocational program in high school and studied Wildlife in college. I learned to properly care and handle animals in many situations. I can also care for other types of animals not just dogs. I live on a farm with dogs, cats, chickens, horses, pigs, goats, and sheep. I am currently working part-time so I have some extra time to offer! I am always care for animals and enjoy making new fur friend. I am good at reading and understanding animal body language. I try to accommodate all animals and make them feel as comfortable as possible even if it takes time.
10. Kaitlyn C.
“I know Kaitlyn Cipko to be a trustworthy, honest, reliable, dependable and caring person. I have had her pet sit in my home more than once, for long durations, for my two cats. She is neat and clean kind, respectful of my property and my pets love her. Whether it's long term or day to day, I wouldn't let anyone else watch my pets! I was so impressed with her, that I hired her on a temporary side job as an administrator for my business. Paperwork/internet/pets? She can do it all. I cannot recommend her enough. Any pets (or people) would be in the best hands with Kaitlyn.”
11. Joanna N.
About: My partner and I LOVE dogs of all kind. We have had our Reggie for 5 years now. Reggie is now 14 years old. We have an unfenced backyard but I will always have the dog on a leash at all times. I will also be bringing the dogs for a walk at least once a day. Dogs are welcome throughout the house. Dogs who stay overnight will be able to sleep on our bed or even on dog beds we have. Your dog will feel completely at home whether it is at my house or yours! I am currently on summer break so I am at home all day everyday. I will be with your dogs all day and will have plenty of time to let your dog out and explore. I will ensure that your dog is getting the necessary care needed whether that is health or safety. I will make sure that your dog is best cared during my visit or the entire time at my house.
12. Alexandra J.
“I was so grateful to find Allie and can’t wait to use her in the future. I don’t have animals but my parents and in laws do who we watch often. It was so nice to have peace of mind while I’m at work that they were taken care of. Allie came over to do a meet and greet before hand and the dogs immediately felt comfortable and loved her. She is responsible, caring, and a total animal lover. I can’t wait to use her in the future and will definitely recommend her to everyone I know!”
13. Laura G.

17. Darcy A.
“Darcy is great with my 2 girls! On nights when I work late it's awesome to get some cute pics during the middle of the day letting me know they got out and had some fresh air. I could tell immediately she was a true dog lover! Very quick to answer any messages I send, checks they have water before she leaves, and always sends me a report of what they did that day as well as multiple pictures ☺ thank you so much Darcy!”
18. Erin & Chloe B.
About: Hello, my name is Erin and I've been a resident in East Haddam since December 2020, prior to that I was a life long resident in Greenwich, CT. I have two dogs of my own, my adult daughter has one dog and my mom has one, so we have a total of four at home right now. My son has two indoor cats but they are in his third floor room so are separated from the dogs. All of our pets are up to date on vaccines and are all spayed/neutered. We have a safely fenced in backyard so I’m able to watch your dog in my house (as long as they get along with other dogs of course! ) or I can watch in your own home. I can do drop by visits to do walks, let them out, feed them, cats too. I do work full time but know my schedule well in advance so I can usually help with pet needs! If your pet stays at my home, there is always one or two other adults there, they will never be left alone. Morning and afternoons before 2 pm are best for my drop ins but I can also do so after 11pm on most nights if needed. I take extreme care and precautions in your home or mine, strictly follow any walking and feeding instructions, I consider your pet as one of mine whenever I’m caring for them, I know how important they are!
19. Chandra B.
“Chandra was amazing and so wonderful with my 6mth old puppy! I couldn't say enough positive things about my experience. She truly was kind, patient and so caring with my little one. I am thrilled I have found a person near by that my dog and I both feel so comfortable with!”
20. Lauren P.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life typically at least 2 dogs and 2 cats. I am a natural animal lover and caretaker. I trained corgis for almost 10 years. I now have two cats and a dog of my own. I usually pet sit for friends or for my parents who have 3 dogs, 3 cats including a senior dog. I work on a hybrid schedule so I am pretty flexible during the week with my days. I will always take my work schedule into account before accepting anything. If in need of dog boarding, your dog would have to listen well to be in our unfenced yard (i would leash or put them on the long line) and they would have to be ok with cats. If I were to go to your home, I understand this is a super personal space and a bit nerve wracking having someone there, trust me I feel the same when I have someone take care of my pets! I will treat your space with respect and make sure to follow your instructions.
