Pet Sitting Dixwell

“Grace was incredible!! And the kitties loved her, even the shy one. Thank you so much for watching them and will definitely recommend and book again in the future. Thank you for caring for our girls!”

“I used Gabriela to watch my kitty and it was a very pleasant experience. Gabriela always kept me updated with each house visit and took care of all the special needs my cat had. She was also very responsive and more than willing to help out with getting the keys to my roommate, etc. I would absolutely book with Gabriela again, and you should too!”

“Katherine was amazing, especially with my senior dog! She gave him his medication at the correct time, took him on lots of walks, and dealt with his separation anxiety well. I could tell she really cared and that they both enjoyed each other's company. She sent tons of cute pictures! She also did a great job of feeding my cat, who predictably decided to hide every time Katherine visited. But she wasn't alarmed by the lack of cat sightings and just reported on her feedings and how much food she had eaten between visits. I would definitely hire Katherine to petsit again! She was great!”

About: I am a huge animal lover, regardless of species, and have been for my entire life! I believe pets are the most important part of a family and my life revolves around mine. I’ve had a rescue cat, Nutella, for the last 11 years who has moved countries with my family! (My friends who know how much I love my cat got me a custom T-shirt of her for my birthday, pictured on my profile!!) After moving to CT, I lived with two cats for two years and am cat-less for the first time! In the past, I have worked as a shelter volunteer taking care of stray and injured dogs and cats. I have fostered cats before, and I most recently fostered a little orange guy for a month in New Haven before he found his permanent family! I have experience administering medications to cats and dogs (liquid/pill), working with cats with picky eating habits, and caring for kittens and senior cats. As someone with a very picky senior cat, I understand the hoops cat owners might have to jump through for their cats! I have experience taking full time care of both cats and dogs and would love to spend some time with your furry friend(s)! I currently work full time in New Haven and live in East Rock, but am available mornings and evenings for drop in visits during the weekdays with a lot of flexibility. I am very flexible on weekends for house sitting and can spend long amounts of time with your pet :) Having been raised around and having taken care of feral cats, I understand that every animal has their own boundaries and comfort levels, and I will do my best to make sure they feel safe and happy when they’re with me! I am comfortable working with pets that are picky eaters (my cat is one herself) and have varying levels of sociability (my cat is very introverted). I have experience working with different dietary needs, prepared specialized meals, and administering liquid and pill based medications!

About: I have been the primary person responsible for my family's dogs, cat, and fish since high school. This includes walks, grooming, vet visits, nutrition, basic puppy training, etc. I have experience with both large and small dogs, including seniors and puppies. I know how to change aquarium water and do maintenance as well. As a graduate student, my classes vary day to day, so pet care will also depend on specific hourly availability. I am located near science hill. Unfortunately, I am currently unable to offer in-house pet sitting at this moment as I am living in a shared house with a no pet policy.

“Milo did a great job watching my cat, consistent keeping him company and taking care of them. This person is reliable, and I would book Milo again in a heartbeat.”

“Leah is very considerate and leaves great notes and pictures after each visit. She is very comfortable around big dogs and Maximus gives 2 paws up. 😁”

Paul G.

“Otis had such a great time with Melissa! We felt super comfortable leaving him in her care. She sent us updates and photos, which we really appreciated. It was clear our dog was happy, relaxed, and well taken care of the whole time. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’ll definitely be booking again!”

Courtney H.

“Hey everyone Z was Great she came to my house three times a day to feed and walk the dogs and play with them. The dogs were well attended to and safe, and we plan on using her again soon. Thank you Z.”

Stephen N.

“This is my first time using Sarah and I could not be any happier! She sends photos and updates which have me peace of mind. I will recommend her to all my friends”

Melissa S.

“Mikayla and Justin are simply great. They took great care of my dog Thelma, who can be very skiddish as she is a rescue. Mikayla and Justin spent ample time letting Thelma warm up to them before taking her out for a walk. I would 10/10 recommend them for any pet care and I will definitely be booking them again for Thelma!”

Kevin M.

“Great communication and was very helpful with working out a schedule. Definitely recommend James, he is a nice guy and great with the pups!”

Dana B.

“Marsela was amazing, reading her daily updates about the cats made our day and kept us at ease knowing our precious furbabies were safe and loved!”

About: Use olive69192 for a discount on your first booking 🌟 Hi! I’m Mercuri and I am a student at Yale studying art history. I have two cats of my own, olive and oil, and I’ve petsat rabbits in the past. When I got my cats they had giardia and ringworm from the shelter so I quickly got comfortable with applying meds orally & topically! I’m working remotely so will have time to play with your cats! I see them as part of my daily routine and let them play with me a lot. I work with indoor only cats, and clean the space multiple times a day, I often scoop the litter 3-4 times a day, and I try to wipe my own cats daily. I’m comfortable with applying meds orally.

About: I’ve raised seven puppies and cared for a 15-year-old senior dog, so I’m comfortable with everything from potty training and high-energy pups to gentle senior care and medication routines. I’ve also had three dogs and two cats, so I understand different personalities and multi-pet households. I’m attentive, patient, and very communicative — your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I intentionally build my schedule around walks, feedings, and quality time. I’m used to planning my days around pet needs, and I make sure their care is prioritized and never rushed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow feeding schedules closely, maintain walk and play routines, administer any needed medications, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I’m very mindful of respecting your space and keeping your home clean and organized. I communicate regularly with updates and photos so you feel completely at ease while you’re away. 🐾

About: I have taken care of dogs from a young age, I started dog sitting at the age of 12 for family friends. Recently I got a dog myself that is a Havanese puddle, her name is Lily and I adore her and miss her so much since she is back home. I have always had dogs as a part of my life and want to continue this by helping people with their own dogs here. Pet care fits into my schedule either weekly or daily depending on what is being asked. On Mondays, I can help after 2 pm. As for Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am pretty busy. But on Wednesdays and Fridays I have a really flexible schedule. At home, I care for my dog by walking, feeding, grooming, and playing with her as much as possible. I think it is very important to make sure that dogs have long walks and have amplitudes of playing time, which I think I am able to do with my own dog.

About: I have had animals my whole life… big dogs, little dogs, cats, all of the above! I have been responsible for watching them for everything, ranging from overnight trips to midday walks and meals. I am a responsible, loving, and attentive sitter who will have the most fun with your pet❤️ I currently work a 9-5, so am free early mornings and nights. I am also open to weekend walks and over night visits, depending on your needs! I will abide by your household rules and preferences when watching your fur baby! Can do everything from feeding, playing outside, walking, and even just providing them some company!

About: I’ve had multiple pets throughout my life whom I loved and took care of well through all stages of their lives. I’ve worked with dogs on basic commands and cared for my dog that passed from years of cancer. Most of my care was toward my own pets, but I love all animals! I am currently home for the summer, and I have a pretty open schedule to walk, check in on, and pet sit! My schedule is very flexible to work with whatever time I’m needed. I have a fenced in yard with grass, as well as a pool in the backyard. I no longer have any pets of my own, but many toys!
