“Laura is a great cat sitter. She was very responsive to the various quirks of caring for Mimi and Smoochie and extremely caring, making sure they ate even if she had to hunt them down. I have full confidence in her and would use her again without hesitantcy.”

Anne S.

“Brooke cheerfully agreed to do last minute drop ins for me over the Christmas holiday. She was prompt, reliable and sent me pics of my cat every time she came. I am very happy to recommend Brooke’s services, and will certainly ask for her again myself.”

“Marisa was a fantastic sitter for our little kitty while we left town for a few days. Even left Myka a little gift basket! Thanks for everything!”

Michael M.

“I had never hired someone to watch my cat before. My newest cat was a rescue and took a long time for her to socialize with humans. I was worried leaving her for 2 days without companionship. We were going to a wedding with all my family and friends. Katherine stepped in and spent time with my cat. Katherine was great communicator, sent texts when she was going to be there and I appreciated the pictures showing the cat eating and playing. Definitely would do this again. So easy and gave me peace of mind. Thanks Katherine!”

Debbie Q.

“Vincent was a very attentive sitter and took great care of our cats. One of our cats got sick while we were away. He was in close contact with us regarding his condition and also reached out to our vet to get their advice. I can highly recommend him as someone who can be trusted to look after your pets as he would his own. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him as a sitter again.”

Melissa B.

“Holly M. is amazing! She is the best pet sitter I have ever hired. It is very clear how much she loves animals and how much mine love her. My dog is initially apprehensive around new people, and Holly knew exactly how to handle it. She is so friendly and easy to work with, and she is reliable, trustworthy and she goes way above and beyond. Lulu can't wait to see her again! I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

Elyse S.

“Samantha is our go-to for Luna! She’s Always reliable, pro & communicative & sends cute pics & goes beyond (like bringing in a package left on stairs so it doesn’t get wet) or letting us know if anything seems important with house while we’re away. 🐱”

“Thank you so much Erin for dropping in on my pups last minute. You were very clear on your arrival expectations and you followed my care instructions perfectly. The dogs clearly were excited to see & play with you!”

Cayton M.

“Carley, thank you for your excellent care of our two kitties, keeping up with our big boy's meds, getting our shy girl to come out and enjoy time with you, giving them loving attention, and managing their food/water/litter. Much appreciated & will contact again when we need coverage. Thank you!”

About: I am a trained pastry chef, and have worked in the industry for over 15 years. As much as I love working with food, animals are my heart. With my business degree, I have decided to start my own dog walking business and I absolutely love it! I have been doing it full time since August '23. Experience: I have three labs of my own from 4 to 12 years old, and two indoor cats. I'm very active and love walking my dogs, taking them for hikes, cooking for them, and all around making sure they're happy. I currently have several client's pups that I walk multiple times per week, sporatically, or while they're on vacation. Please send me a message with details about your needs so we can chat more! I have several years of experience of volunteer dog walking from the SPCA. I earned a Pet First Aid and CPR certification through the RECOVER Initiative (Reassessment Campaign on Veterinary Resuscitation), created by Cornell University of Veterinary Medicine. I am a dog walker full time, though I limit the amount of clients I take on so that I can be flexible and available for the ones I have. Currently, I am looking for a few additional long term relationships with pups and their parents who need routine pet care M, T, W, Th and/ or Friday, at least 1 day per week. I service within a ten mile radius of Westbrook, including Old Saybrook, Essex, Clinton, Killingworth, Old Lyme. I tend to take care of pets from 8 am to 5 pm, but am available later or earlier at times, and on weekends on occasion for my regular clients if need be. I am very flexible when it comes to overnights and extended stays for regular clients, and am usually available with plenty of notice. Ask me about me about my *special* routine client rates! Can't wait to hear from you! Every pup and kitty has their own, individual personality/ways of communicating and I am here to take the time to understand them from your perspective, while over time learning from them as well. I value consistency and trust building with animals, and am looking forward to gaining a friendship with a member of your family. When it comes to walks, I am most comfortable using a harness if they tend to be pullers, and if they are, will work with them using gentle, verbal and reward oriented methods I've found effective on my own dogs.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them never feels like work—it’s something I truly enjoy. I’ve spent a lot of time with pets and I love getting to know their individual quirks and personalities. Whether it’s a playful pup, an older dog, or a cat, I take the time to connect and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and happy. I believe pets deserve our full attention and respect, and that’s exactly how I approach every visit. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m here to make that easy for you. I’m excited to meet your furry friend and give them the care they deserve! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I do work part time but I’m able plan my schedule to make sure I’m fully available and focused during each visit or walk, and I always allow time for travel, play, and updates to pet parents. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening cuddles, I make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need—no rushing, just quality time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine as closely as possible to keep their pet comfortable and stress-free. I take time to understand feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions so everything stays consistent. I make sure pets feel safe, respected, and loved in their own space—whether that means going for a walk, playing, or simply being a calm presence. At home, I have a dog who I adore. Caring for him daily has taught me how important it is to give pets the attention, structure, and love they need. I make sure he’s well-fed, gets his favorite treats, and always feels included and cared for. That same level of care is what I bring to every pet I look after. Cleanliness and communication are also important to me. I keep things tidy and will always give updates with photos or notes, so owners know their pet is in good hands.

“Absolutely the best care possible. Adriana and Christopher went above and beyond to care for our pet and home. They are extraordinarily loving, considerate and trustworthy and leave you with the comfort and knowledge that everything is being looked after.”

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, I offer reliable, loving, and professional pet care. From growing up with dogs to my current role as a trusted sitter for my neighbor’s puppy, caring for pets has always been a part of my life. I also worked 4 years as a Pet Care Technician at Paws Pet Resort, where I provided top-notch care, monitored health and wellbeing, ensured a clean, safe environment, and made every pet feel loved through playtime, enrichment, and even bedtime stories. Your dog will be in caring, experienced hands with me! As someone who works fully remote with a flexible schedule, I have the time and availability to give your dog the attention and care they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just company while I work, I’m able to adjust my day to fit your pup’s needs. Dog sitting is the perfect way for me to combine my love for animals with my work-from-home lifestyle. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in my client’s home, I always aim to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, along with timely meals, potty breaks, and any special care they need. I prioritize a calm, safe environment and keep pet parents updated with photos and messages, so you always know how your furry family member is doing. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities.

About: I have loved dogs and cats since I was a little kid. Pets really are a gift and I will treat your fur babies like they are my own. I can handle a variety of temperaments and special needs. Just ask! Starting June 13th, I will be available weekdays and weekends for drop-in walks and hosting other pups in my fenced-in yard for doggy day care. I have a fenced in yard and two 3 year-old pups who love playtime with other pups. I am able-bodied and happy to go on as long of a walk as your pup requires.

About: I have owned animals my whole life, from cats and dogs to fish and geckos. I have also volunteered for labs4rescue and worked for We let the dogs out pet sitting company. I do work full time, but my evening and weekends are open to help out with your fur babies! I am able to be flexible around your schedule. My pets are treated as part of the family, as they are my family. I will treat your animals with love and respect. I am very good at reading animals. Some are full of energy, some of them are scared of new people. I am good at getting animals comfortable with me.

“Matt is the best around! The dogs love him! Would recommend him 100%”

About: I love animals. I know that they are more than just pets, but family. They are like children and need to be loved and cared for. I can check in on your fur baby or pet sit. Friendly, loving and reliable service. Cats or dogs... I currently have a cat. He's been with me for 5 years and he's spoiled rotten. Your pet will have all my attention. I can watch your pet overnight if you are away on vacation or business. I can send pics by text if you would like. I can feed, clean up after and play with your pet. I do not pet sit in my home. If you have any questions feel free to contact me. Have a great day.
