Dog Sitting Cos Cob

About: I have cared for dogs my entire life and have experience with dogs of different ages and needs. I am dependable, attentive, and passionate about animal care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I currently work from home so I have a lot of free time. Why not spend time with furry friends! It’s also a great opportunity to take a breather and get fresh air during daily dog walks. When caring for pets in a client's home, I ensure that their daily routines are maintained to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I also make sure the home remains clean and secure while providing pets with plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I am attentive to each pet's individual needs and committed to creating a safe, loving environment while their owners are away.

About: I’ve had animals my whole life, including dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. I’ve trained multiple puppies, cared for senior dogs, and have years of experience looking after cats. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and always make sure each pet feels safe and loved. I currently work from home, so I have a flexible schedule for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. At the moment, I’m not able to offer boarding, as my own pets may not adjust well to new animals in the home. My approach is calm and understanding. I like to respect each pet’s unique personality and habits. I don’t believe in being overly strict, but I always make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

“Cassidy was wonderful with our cat, Leo! She visited twice a day to take care of his feeding and cleanup, and she did an amazing job. She was incredibly reliable, punctual, and kept us completely at ease while we were away. It’s always tough leaving your pet behind, but knowing Cassidy was checking in made all the difference. Leo was happy, well-fed, and perfectly cared for. We will absolutely be hiring Cassidy again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

About: I love all pets. I’ve taken care of over seven different dogs ranging from 8 weeks old to 15+. I’ve administered medication orally and topical long walks and assistance after medical procedures. I do not do boarding in my own home. 100% in the comfort of your own home please do not hesitate to reach out for any questions! I am very flexible for any pet care for any questions. Feel free to reach out. I’m available at all times of day and night to make sure our babies are okay I have a dog and cat we feed both twice a day the correct amount needed for them. Our dog goes on a daily walk. Other client care I do whatever the pet parent needs and wants to ensure the safety of their pet and whatever they are comfortable with.

“Tara’s the best! Always takes great care of our fur babies. We had a family emergency and needed our pets taken care of. She helped us out last minute. She’s always reliable. Thanks Tara!”

“Nicole was really great! Our dog can be nervous around new people but he seemed to really like her. We felt confident she’d take good care of him.”

About: I have always had a very deep love for animals 🐈🐩and caring for them truly makes me happy, I am a very patient calm and loving person and I treat every pet like family. I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats, including senior pets, blind pets, and pets that need medications or extra care. I also work in healthcare so I have knowledge in first aid and monitoring health conditions which helps me provide safe attentive and responsible care for every pet while making them feel comfortable loved and at home. I currently work part-time in healthcare, which allows me the flexibility to dedicate quality time to caring for pets. Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and I genuinely love making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to create a calm, caring environment where your pet feels at home, with plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and supervision. I’m available on weekends, evenings, overnight stays, and most weekdays after work, and I would be honored to care for your furry family member as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and loving home where every pet can feel safe and relaxed. I have two separate private rooms available if your dog or cat prefers a quiet space to rest, needs time to adjust, or if you request separate accommodations. I also have a very friendly cat who is gentle and comfortable around both dogs and cats. I have reliable transportation, so I can take dogs to nearby parks for walks, fresh air, playtime, and exercise. I have experience caring for senior pets, anxious pets, blind pets, and pets that require medication or extra attention. Working in healthcare has taught me to be attentive, patient, compassionate, and detail oriented, allowing me to closely monitor each pet’s behavior and well being. I will care for your furry family member as if they were my own, making sure they feel loved, comfortable, active, and stress-free throughout their stay.

About: My love of dogs led me to start a dog walking business when I was only 10 yrs old. Once I finally convinced my parents to get a dog, I was 15 and we ended up with two bichon-malteses who were the loves of my life. As an adult, my career has me traveling frequently so I haven’t become a pet owner, but I continue to dogsit for friends and neighbors because I love the companionship when I’m home. I am committed to providing your dog a comfortable home away from home where they will be well cared for and loved. I work from home Mondays and Fridays so can be available for care for a long weekend (Fri-Sat-Sun-Mon). My availability may be limited based on work travel. I live in a dog friendly building, where there is greenery and walking paths around the building for daily walks and enjoy going for longer walks in nearby parks.

“Shawn is great with Max, my cat. Max has diabetes and has to eat before he can have his insulin. Max can be fussy sometimes with his food, and Shawn has made it a point to make sure he eats his food. He has gone so far as to spoon feed Max! He really does take good care of Max!”

“To say Leigh went above and beyond would be an understatement. She was excellent with my cat. Leigh is patient, accommodating, and was able to interact with my shy cat almost immediately. She pointed out some potential issues and gave suggestions on what to do. She was great, and I very highly recommend her!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced cat caregiver. I’ve cared for my own cat since she was a kitten—she’s now 8 years old—and I’ve grown up with cats my entire life. I truly enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s playing, giving affection, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I will care for your cat as if they were my own by providing consistent feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, and a clean, calm environment. I pay close attention to each cat’s personality and needs, and I always aim to keep them happy, healthy, and relaxed while you’re away. By profession, I’m a preschool teacher responsible for 17 children each day, which has strengthened my sense of responsibility, patience, and reliability. I bring that same level of care and attentiveness into every pet I look after. I would love the opportunity to meet your cat and provide dependable, loving care. I’m available 1:30–4:30 PM throughout the summer, with expanded availability from 10:00 AM–4:30 PM starting in August. I am currently working part-time as a Preschool Teacher. I like to pet sit as my side gig to help afford camp for my daughter. I always make sure food and water bowls are kept clean and that your cat is fed according to their individual schedule. I also maintain a clean litter box and ensure your cat has a comfortable, tidy space while you’re away. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care while you’re on vacation. I provide not only basic care, but also attention, playtime, and companionship so your cat feels safe, engaged, and comfortable in your absence. You can rest assured your cat will be well cared for and will receive the attention they need—along with a friendly face while you’re away.

About: Hi there! I am a local mom who recently lost her childhood dog, Bella. I can't find it in my heart to get myself another dog just yet so what better way to fill the void than by walking and caring for yours. I have a 3 year old daughter who keeps my hands full but am available for dog walking throughout the week while you're at work. I am a working mom but am looking for a dog or two to walk while I am on break! I am usually home all day on Tuesdays so I am trying to fill a void while keeping your pets active. My home becomes their home. I will make sure your pup is comfortable and feels right at home too. While my backyard is not fenced, I'll make sure your pup is by my side at all times.

“First time booking Katie- she did a great job. Prompt communication, took care with the instructions we left, and kept us abreast of how our cats were doing. Will reach out again next time we need a petsitter- and do recommend to others!”

“Kenisha was super responsive and reliable!”

About: I’ve had dogs growing up. As an adult I have had cats and dogs, many of whom had special needs. I have had two blind cats and cats and dogs with various chronic medical conditions. I also have a veterinary assistant certificate from Norwalk Community College and I have worked as a vet assistant. I am retired for now. This leaves me time to focus on your animals. I can do sleepovers as well as daily walks and home visits for cats. I cannot take pets in my home but can do walks and sleepovers in a clients home. If an owner has a fenced in yard and the dog likes going out in the yard I would go with the dog and not leave the dog unattended. If the dog is used to walks we would walk.

About: I had a family dog since I had a baby he was a dachshund and lived for 18 years. I have dog sitted before in middle school with my sister and it was great having to take care of cute dogs. I know how to handle dogs. I am currently working part time so I have time to take care of dogs and can walk them in the morning before I go into work. I am very cautious when taking care of dog before walking them I will check if their collar or harness it tightly secured (not too tight) so they won’t slip away.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have being dogsitting/walking on the side for ~4 years. I’m comfortable with dogs of any age or need—I had a senior tripawd myself until he passed in August '24—and have worked with puppies as young as one month. I have an open schedule and am quick to respond. I’m home from school this summer and available just about anytime! I’m able to hang out with your pup weekends, evenings, and overnight. I’ve cared for dogs with a variety of needs. I have experience walking puppies, seniors, high energy dogs, and couch potatoes. Whether your dog needs a slow fifteen minute stroll or an hour long game of fetch, I'm happy to accommodate them. I'm eager to meet your pup's needs, no matter what they are!

“LisaLeigh really helped us out when we were in a bind. She was communicative and took great care of our two pups for the night. I will absolutely be calling her again!”

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Campbell! 🐾 I know how important it is to find someone who cares for your pets the way you do. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you’re away, I bring patience, reliability, and plenty of love to every visit. I’ve worked with pets of all sizes and personalities, and I pride myself on making sure tails wag, paws stay happy, and owners feel at ease. Think of me as your pet’s new best friend (with a pocket full of treats). Right now I’m lucky enough to have a very flexible schedule, which means pet care can be my top priority. I’m currently between jobs and excited to dedicate my time full-time to caring for pets. Whether it’s weekday walks, weekend drop-ins, or last-minute needs, I have the availability (and energy!) to give your pets the attention they deserve. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my first priority. When I’m in your home, I follow your routines closely so your pet feels secure — from feeding times to favorite toys and walking routes. I always double-check leashes, doors, and gates to keep them safe, and I’ll send plenty of updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind while keeping your pet happy, loved, and cared for. My home is a safe, pet-friendly space where your furry family member will feel welcome. I make sure they have a cozy, comfortable environment and lots of love and attention throughout the day. Walks, playtime, and snuggles are all part of the routine, and I keep their feeding and care schedule consistent with what they’re used to at home. I treat every pet like my own, so you can relax knowing they’re in a safe, loving environment. I have a fenced in backyard and 2 social and lovable dogs that they will become instant besties with and can keep each other company!
