About: Caring for dogs has always been my passion. For more than 10 years, my family and I have opened our home and hearts to pets—fostering, rehoming, and even providing medical care when needed. My daughter had worked in a veterinary hospital, so I know how to give medication, insulin, and special attention to senior pets. But what really matters is this: when your dog stays with us, they’re never just a guest—they’re family. We’re home full-time, so your pet will always have company, love, and care. Their happiness and safety are my top priority. Here we meet professionalism, Medical care and Vacation time for your pet. My daughter is currently working remotely. We are both retired and are always home. We provide: 2-4 walks a day. - 24/7 supervision - fenced backyard - walks to the beach/ park - toys - extra bowls - extra leashes - blankets - treats Why Book With Us In our home, every pet is treated like family. We offer a fully fenced backyard for safe playtime, a clean and calm environment, and constant supervision—your pet is never left alone. We closely follow each pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved. For extra peace of mind: • 24/7 supervision with someone always home • Ring cameras in both the front and backyard for added security • Just one block from Stamford Veterinarian and three blocks from Springdale Vet in case of emergencies Whether in our home or yours, we put your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort first—and keep you updated every step of the way.

About: I’ve been surrounded by different types of animals my whole life! No breed is too big or too small, I love them all.

I am mostly available Sunday, Monday, Friday, and Saturday. I always ensure safety for your pet. Following your instructions and wishes are important for the job. Each pet has different needs and care. Getting your pet comfortable and to trust me is very important for great service. Your pets are safe with me!

About: I have two years of experience caring for a senior dog and a young cat, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, energy level, and needs! I love making sure pets feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m also a full-time grad student with a flexible schedule and an active lifestyle. I love staying on the move, and I’m always looking for a furry walking buddy to help me hit my daily step goal! Who says we can’t both get our steps in? As a full-time grad student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make plenty of time for your furry friends! I’m available seven days a week, with early mornings and mid-afternoons being especially convenient for me. That said, I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and accommodate other times whenever possible. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday check-in, or weekend visit, I’d love to help! I’ve cared for pets in different home environments, from houses with backyards to apartment buildings.

About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a small kid! If you have 3 pups or more, I just charge for 2! When I turned 17 I worked at a doggy daycare called rover retreat, where I fell in love with taking care of dogs! I went to school in Colorado, my native state, for a couple of years, where I dog sat off and on. I decided to pick my life up and move to the city of Stamford with my to be closer with my girlfriend's family. I love to teach pups tricks and enrich the lives of all animals! Even if your pup is difficult or different, I can work with it:) I am experienced with puppies, seniors, diabetics, pets with medication. I've taught dogs how to run with a bicycle and how to do new tricks like handshake and wait. If you choose me, you're guaranteed someone with lots of experience and a big heart for your furry friend(s). My schedule is currently completely open for your pups' care!! I was in school for a couple of years in boulder, met a wonderful girl, and moved with her out east to the city of Stamford. I doordash other than dog sitting so I can easily accommodate. I watch over the client’s pup and give it all the affection and attention it needs while also maintaining decency and care for the space and all beings and things within.

My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to following your pet’s routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or extra cuddles.

I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently part time working! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because animals are a big part of my life. I make time each day for feeding, playtime, walks, attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. Since I have two cats of my own, I understand the importance of keeping a consistent routine and providing companionship, even when owners are away. I’m able to incorporate pet care into my schedule by dedicating time for visits, walks, check-ins, and giving each pet the attention they need. I enjoy spending time with animals and love being able to provide reliable, loving care for pets and peace of mind for their owners. I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while respecting their normal routines. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, playtime, walks, and any special needs their pet may have. I understand that pets feel most comfortable when their routines stay consistent, so I do my best to make the experience as stress-free as possible. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, calm space where they can feel comfortable and receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Whether at my home or a client’s, I treat every pet like they are my own and make sure they feel safe and loved.

About: I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs and cats: big or small. I’m super active and love hiking and walking. I own a lovely Cockapoo, a Siberian cat and have two kids. I’m reliable, communicative and responsible. I’ve been working from home and I’m up early to take my dog for a run and feed my Siberian. Early mornings and weekend requests are no problem. I have a super flexible schedule and in case of conflicts, I can also reach out and offer my college-aged daughter, to cover so you don’t have to worry about finding another provider when I’m away. I provide updates on your pet care for your ease of mind. I do this work with my daughters simply because we love pets. We had many clients in Westchester, and just moved to CT.

About: I work from home, so I’m often available throughout the day! I’ve grown up with dogs, including a black Lab who was part of my family for many years until we sadly had to say goodbye. I currently have a rescued black Lab, Toddy, from Kentucky, who I’ve had for four years now. He is my bestest friend and is pretty much attached to my hip! We also sent him to a training camp, so I have experience with e-collars if training needs to be reinforced on walks. I also foster puppies with Fetch Rescue, which has given me experience handling dogs with a variety of temperaments, personalities, and needs. Overall, I’m just a major dog lover and would love to help anyone in a pinch who needs a dog walker! I currently work from home so I often am available throughout the day! Mornings between 8:30-10am are fairly difficult but can sometimes make work as my meetings move around. I do not have a fence at my apartment but always make sure her dogs are a leashed before opening the door. Happy to take care of Dogs at someone else’s home In which I would respect like it is mine as I would want the same! I keep a camera in my house so totally respect if someone else would to the same!

About: I have several years of experience caring for both pets and children. While working as a nanny for multiple families, I was also responsible for their dogs, making sure they were well-fed, exercised, and happy. This gave me hands-on experience with daily walks, playtime, and maintaining routines. At home, I am a proud cat owner, so I also understand the unique needs of cats and how to provide them with the right care and attention. I am patient, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether it’s walking a dog, keeping a pet company, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. have a very flexible schedule. Sunday Mondays and Tuesdays I am super available. Most mornings before 10 am I’m free and I sometimes work from home. My schedule is adjustable, I can often adapt to different needs during the week. The care I provide always depends on each pet parent’s instructions, since every animal has unique needs and routines. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them regular walks, fresh food and water, playtime, and lots of attention. Safety is always my first priority whether that means keeping doors secured, watching carefully on walks, or following special feeding instructions. I also keep the home environment tidy and respectful, so pet parents can feel fully at ease while they are away.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, with experience caring for breeds of all sizes. I have always had a natural ability to connect with dogs and have been comfortable handling and caring for them from a young age. Additionally, I have experience house-sitting and providing care for dogs belonging to coworkers, friends, and family members. My lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs allow me to provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care for every dog I look after. I am currently playing junior hockey, with practices scheduled Monday through Thursday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Outside of those hours, I am fully available to provide attentive and reliable care for your dogs. My availability on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays varies depending on my hockey schedule, but I am happy to coordinate in advance to find a time that works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while giving each dog plenty of attention, affection, and exercise suited to their needs. Having grown up around dogs of all sizes, I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs. I strive to make every pet feel comfortable, secure, and loved while their owner is away. I also keep owners updated on how their pets are doing for added peace of mind.

About: I will take care of your dogs as if they were mine. I will become your doggos bff until your back home! I will also make sure to send lots of pictures :) I will be available on weekends and week nights. It would be very important to me to meet your dog before sitting so they know me before sitting. I do not have any pets. I recently lost my beautiful Choco to cancer. He was a beautiful brown golden doodle but looked more like a brown golden retriever. I have a small fenced yard and the neighborhood I am in is very quiet and pet friendly.
