About: I’ve had pets my whole life and was taking care of my dogs since I can remember! I also was a routine pet sitter for a couple families in my home town and it is my favorite thing to do. Since moving away, seeing and getting to say hi to any dogs always brightens my day so I’d love to help out and get to know your pup! I’ve cared for and pet sit for anywhere from very young puppies to seniors. I love them all! None too big or small. I’m working part time so I have plenty of time for your pups. Occasionally during the week I work evenings but I have lots of availability throughout the week and weekends! I don’t have any pets in my apartment, but I’ve got a good bit of space and I’m right by the park to take them out for walks and have some outside time!

Matthew is so pleasant and laid back, any loving animal will gravitate well with him. Matthew was an easy win for my pittie girlie and she absolutely enjoyed her AM walk with him. I have already booked more appointments with Matthew that my pittie and I look forward to.

I would 10/10 recommend Jillian. Our first time meeting she did awesome with my dog and her experience with dogs and training really shows. I’ve never seen my dog so responsive and attentive to commands or behaving properly before. If you ask for any tips Jillian has plenty of experience and showed me how to get the best out of my dog. After the walk, my dog plopped right down on the floor and got ready to nap. I definitely will use Jillian in the future for any dog care needs.

About: I adopted my kitty cat named Minuit (means midnight in French) and she's the best thing to ever happen to me. I would love to extend my care to your own sweet furbaby! I have had the pleasure of taking care of both dogs and cats. I will provide personalized care for each pet under my watch. From daily walks and feeding time to playtime and snuggles, I am committed to ensuring your pet feels happy & well cared for while you're away! ** I am currently only servicing in the downtown Hartford area I am a full time remote worker and flexible with my schedule. I am available to care for your fur babies on weekdays, weekends, or holidays! I tailor my approach to individual pet needs and stick closely to the routine your pet is accustomed to. I live by a big park so taking long walks and getting that extra space and exercise would be great for your doggies!

Alex was available on short notice (<24 hours) to come and walk a dog that we are fostering who has separation anxiety so that we could run to overlapping appointments without causing him distress. We really appreciate it!! And Rusty seemed to do well on the walk.

About: I’ve taken care of my friends pets for a few years, this includes cats and dogs. Anytime they were going out of town or were not going to be home until late I would feed, walk, and play with their pets. I have a full-time job, but I have a lot of flexibility in planning my schedule. I will be able to check in on them frequently, including during the day and at night. I will keep a close eye on your pets to make sure they are safe. I’ll also pay close attention and follow the notes that their owners give me to ensure their pet is given the best care possible. In addition, I will keep in contact with pet owners and send them pictures of their animals while they are away!

About: My professional journey in pet-sitting and dog-walking officially began in 2021 when I joined the team at David's Pet Services. It was an incredible experience to work with them for nearly two years, but due to my relocation to a different part of Connecticut, I had to step away from my role there. I had the pleasure of serving over 50 clients, gaining valuable expertise in various aspects of pet care. I have worked with small, medium, and large dogs, as well as providing attentive care to cats. Additionally, I have extensive experience with special needs and senior pets, ensuring their comfort and well-being. Basic puppy training, de-escalation techniques, and administering oral medications are also among my areas of expertise. I am well-versed in accommodating special instructions and routines to meet the unique needs of each pet. I have even cared for exotic pets, such as birds, fish, and guinea pigs! *I hold pet first aid/CPR certification, ensuring that I am prepared to handle any unforeseen situations and provide immediate care in emergencies* Feel free to request your visit and I will make it a priority to fulfill that request. I respond very quickly to messages so if I cannot accommodate your request, you will know almost immediately. I understand the importance of a consistent routine for your furry companions - therefore, I am dedicated to tailoring my services to meet the specific requirements of each individual client. I firmly believe that every household and every pet is unique, with their own distinct needs and preferences. I understand that pets are cherished members of the family, and I approach every interaction with the understanding that their well-being is of the highest importance. From tailoring exercise routines to accommodate different fitness levels and goals, to providing a safe and nurturing environment, I am committed to delivering the highest standard of care and providing peace of mind to the pet owner.

About: I’ve cared for my three dogs since I was six years old. Growing up with them, I took responsibility for walking them, feeding them, and giving them their medication and baths. I also made sure they had plenty of playtime. I took care of them from their puppy years to their senior years. I also used to watch my cousin’s dog often. I am working part-time but my hours are flexible. I am available any time on the weekends. And can do different times throughout the weekdays depending on the schedule of my full-time job. I follow the owner’s instructions very well and keep them updated on how their furry friend is doing. My goal is always to ensure pets feel happy, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: I have loved dogs and pets for as long as I can remember! Growing up, my home was always filled with multiple dogs, which taught me firsthand how to manage different personalities, energy levels, and care routines. When I left for college, I made the heartbreaking but responsible choice to rehome my dogs with amazing families. I knew that with my intense school schedule, I wouldn’t have the time, energy, or availability they truly deserved. To me, a pet's well-being always comes first. Now that my schedule is open and stable, I am eager to get back to working with animals! I am using this time to gain even more hands-on experience before I am ready to adopt a dog of my own again. By booking with me, your pet will get my full, undivided attention, lots of love, and the highest level of responsible care. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I recently graduated from college and have a few completely open months this summer before starting my full time career in September! Because of this, my schedule is incredibly open, flexible, and completely open for pet care. My personal daily routine revolves around fitness, going to the gym, and staying as active as possible. I absolutely love going on long, frequent walks, so looping your dog into my daily routine is a perfect match! Whether your dog needs high energy outdoor exercise, frequent potty breaks, or just consistent companionship throughout the day, I have the full time, energy, and capacity to dedicate to them. Your pet will be my top priority all summer long! Your pet will enjoy a safe, secure, and incredibly peaceful stay at my house! We have a completely fenced in yard with absolutely no other resident pets, giving your dog full reign of the space. There are also no neighboring dogs sharing our fence line, making it the perfect, stress free environment for pups who get easily anxious or reactive.I live with my mom and my 15 year old sister, both of whom love animals and will occasionally be around to offer extra head scratches and love. Because it is a calm, predictable household, your pet will get highly focused attention and a structured routine tailored exactly to their needs. When caring for your pet in your home, I treat your property with the utmost respect, care, and consideration. I am exceptionally neat, organized, and mindful of your space. You can travel with total peace of mind knowing that I will not only keep your pets happy and safe, but I will also make sure to leave your home cleaner and better than I found it.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, and I currently have a dog back in Costa Rica who has a special condition and uses a wheelchair. Caring for him has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I’ve learned to adapt to his unique needs and rhythm, provide extra support when necessary, and ensure he feels safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. This experience has taught me patience, creativity, and a deep understanding of how every pet has their own personality and pace. From energetic pups to those with special needs, I know how to adjust activities, offer affection, and create a stress-free, happy environment. My goal is always to make each dog feel valued, cared for, and truly at home while in my care. Hi! I’m available throughout the week, depending on the service you need. I usually offer dog walks from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM, and I’m flexible to adjust to your schedule whenever possible. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Feel free to message me so we can discuss details and find a plan that works for both of us. 🐾 I live in an apartment, with a small space, however the complex has a dog park and a large green area. It is a calm and quiet place
