Dog Walkers in Cromwell, CT

“Would highly recommend Kaitlin. She was attentive and took great care of Violet and Juniper. She is reliable and was flexible with my changing work schedule which was much appreciated.”

“Brittany is INCREDIBLE! I have a very energetic, high strung, unneutered shepherd who is not the easiest dog to find a walker for. He absolutely loves Brittany and she goes above and beyond for him constantly. She is experienced with shepherds, reactive dogs, and high energy breeds and I feel very comfortable having her care for my dog. She always goes the extra mile by giving him fresh water, working on training with him to support what I’m working on with him, and is firm but loving with him. She handles him so well and he absolutely adores her. I can’t recommend her enough! Brittany has been walking my dog for months, is consistently reliable, has great availability, and excellent communication. She is so trustworthy and a pleasure to work with!”

About: I have grown up around animals and have had both dogs and cats my whole life, as well as various types of small animals. I spent the last year working as an attendant at a Dog Daycare and Boarding center where I learned a lot more about caring for dogs in addition to my previous dog sitting experience. I have experience working with and handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, specifically large dogs with lots of energy. I have a lot of patience for dogs who get anxious while their families are away and can help them feel as comfortable as possible. I rode horses for 10 years and For several years I worked leading pony rides and handling farm animals for a traveling petting zoo which has given me a well rounded understanding for taking care of animals in general. I am a college graduate and in college I would often take care of my friend’s animals when they were in class or away. At the moment I only have a cat and would love to get to spend more time with dogs again. I work in theatre as a prop and paint artist and a lot of jobs in the field are for a couple weeks at a time and are not always the most consistent. I have full availability on the weekends and have a very flexible schedule during the week, specifically in the morning and evenings but also can likely do mid day. I have helped my sister train her dog and can help continue any training and/or rules you have for your dog while walking and taking care of them. I can keep a close eye on them if they are likely to get into trouble or things they’re not supposed to. I will give your pets lot of love and attention while you’re away. I can also play with your dogs and help get their energy out during the day. My dog is very playful and I often have to run around with him in the yard and play with him in the house to help him calm down.

About: Pets are my life, and I give them my full care and attention when in their presence. In previous experiences, I have cleaned litter boxes, administered medications, taken long walks (I'm an avid runner and can even take your dog for a run if they like it!), fed both wet and dry food, and dealt with anxious pets. I am a fairly free agent during breaks from college and can schedule my day around when your pet needs a walk or food! I can come as early as 7am and as late as 9pm! I am very respectful when it comes to coming over and caring for your pets. If you give me clear instructions where food and leash and/or medicine is I will do my duties, hang out with your pet for a while (and send you a cute pic), and leave everything else the way it was. I do not offer to have pets stay at my house.

“Josh is amazing. i have used him twice when we went out of town and both times he went above and beyond when caring for my dogs and also took time to say hello to both cats. i would highly recommend using josh”

“Karlena is great, I can tell because the dogs went crazy when they saw her. Karlena is prompt and communicates well. I just moved here, and she is making the dogs feel super comfortable during the day when I'm at work and that is a huge weight off of my shoulder. She is a sweet young lady and I'm glad she wanted to walk Hanry & Jazzy. Thank you Karlena. :)”

“Michelle is an absolute gem of a dog walker! From the moment she met my Guster, I knew we were in good hands. Her genuine love for animals is clear in everything she does — from the way she greets Gussy with enthusiasm each visit, to the thoughtful updates and photos she sends after every walk. Michelle is dependable, professional, and truly treats Guster like her own. My dog lights up when she sees Michelle, and I have total peace of mind knowing hes being cared for with such kindness and attention. Rain or shine, Michelle always shows up with a smile and ensures my biy gets plenty of exercise, playtime, and love. Finding someone you can trust to care for your animal as you do is no small thing, and I’m incredibly grateful to have found Michelle. If you’re looking for someone who’s reliable, caring, and simply amazing with dogs — look no further. Michelle is the best!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for over 10 years and truly enjoy spending time with animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, dependable, attentive to routines, and comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and energetic dogs.” I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting during weekdays and weekends. I always make time to give pets attention, playtime, exercise, and lots of care so they feel comfortable and loved.” “Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and clean environment and always follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions carefully. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and treated like family while you’re away.”

About: I have owned dogs and cats my whole life. At one point we had 4 dogs in the house! I am a dog-lover above all, but I also LOVE cats and understand them and their boundaries. I look forward to making new furry friends :) I currently work part-time on Saturdays and am a grad student during the Fall and Spring. Pet care is an AWESOME addition to my open schedule! I have overnight “cat-sat” on and off for the last two years. I do not leave any messes and am respectful of others’ spaces. I keep to myself and read books or do homework online when I stay the night somewhere—as well as hanging with critters!! I am professional and respectful about the work I do🩷

About: I have been dog-obsessed (yes, obsessed) since I was a child and always walked dogs around my neighborhood. The animal control officer would even come to me when older folks had high-energy dogs that needed extra exercise to be able to stay comfortably in their homes. I'll never forget Maggie, an energetic and assertive GSD who lived with a lovely older woman. The moment I arrived the woman opened the door and Maggie bolted out. She tried to call her back, but I quickly took out my keys and jingled them which got Maggie's attention and curiosity long enough so I could gently guide her back inside. In college, I worked at a dog training facility teaching puppy obedience and training dogs staying at the day care. I also was a teaching assistant with the the animal science program for two separate canine behavior courses for three semesters. Now I have my own dog, my masters, and am pursuing an animal therapy certification to one day create my own therapy farm so others can experience the joy and healing of being around animals that I have had the privilege of experiencing my whole life. I'm currently working remotely and I make my own schedule for when I see clients. I mostly work Sundays and M-W afternoons/ evenings, but like I said, my schedule is pretty flexible. Dog walking could easily fit into almost time on any day of the week! I will care for your pets the same way I care for my own fur baby. She is family to me just like I know yours is to you. Their health and safety is my top priority at all times with fun and cuddles coming close behind in second place :)

“Nes was wonderful with our new 4 month old puppy. It our was our first time using Rover and we hired her for dog waking. She was able to come on short notice, had excellent communication with us, and our puppy was happy to have her. We will definitely use Nes in the future!”

“Julianne is wonderful & it’s been such a relief to know that my dog is getting out for a walk. She’s reliable and always sends me pictures of my dog on the walk!”

About: Hi all! My name is Madison and I have many years of experience taking care of dogs and cats. I grew up with dog loving parents and we had two dogs I grew up with. They both crossed the rainbow bridge and it took years for us to recover. After 6 years without a dog, my mom adopted a German Shepherd who I often dog sit when my mom is away. I currently have my own 10 month old Corgi who is full of energy and two sweet cats. On my free time I also volunteer for Protectors of Animals and do the walking shift with the dogs in the shelter. I would love to provide you with the dedication and care that your animals deserve. I would love to do drop in visits or even a few dog walks when needed. Thank you and I hope to care for your animals soon! I am currently working at an elementary school full time as a paraprofessional and I am looking to take this on as part time on weekends or when school has breaks. In my own home, I care for my pets with such a loving manner. I never want any animal to feel like they are uncomfortable with me. If I needed to take things slow with a dog or cat I would love to meet them prior to the owner’s leaving for their vacation or work to see if this is a good fit.

About: Avid animal lover my whole life. Always had multiple different types of pets growing up. Currently I am lucky enough to have 3 cats, a mini Australian shepard, and fish! Available part time at the moment in the mornings, evenings, or on my days off from my day job. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby! Your pets are my top priority when they are in my care. I would like to know about any allergies, health issues, or potential risks to your pet that might be in or around your home while they are under my supervision. I will be 100% committed and reliable for keeping your pet happy and safe while you are away.

“Great job. My other half had a last minute trip that I couldn't plan work around so I wasn't able to meet up with Aileen beforehand, which isn't optimal, and had contacted her to walk Simon during my long day shifts. I was happy Simon was taking care of and she did a good job of checking in. Really thankful to have found a good option for the situation.”

“Cole has been with us for almost 3 years! He has been extremely reliable, responsible, communicative, and simple an addition to our family. My little Sami wags her tail so happy and fast as soon as she hears his park on the driveway. We are so happy to have found Cole as he loves our Sami like his own!”

About: I have had dogs of all sizes in my life-from mastiff to dachshund. From puppy to senior. I have plenty of experience administering medicine, giving baths and caring for pets. I work from home and am available to take care of your pet(s) after 12pm. On the weekends, I am pretty open to take care of your pet whenever you need so long as I am not out of town. I live in a townhouse complex so it would be best if I came to take care of the pet at your home. There is also a fenced in dog park just down the street from my house that I would plan on frequenting so long as you're comfortable with me taking your dog there.
