Pet Sitting in Durham

“Amazing job. Our pets loved her”

Aspen R.

“Absolutely fantastic Sitter (what every one of his 50+ reviews says & more. Actually deserves a 6th or 7th Star!). Jade is extremely communicative. Even did research on my pet prior to showing up for the walk-thru). - Recognized the cat was 12 years old & asked if he needed any medication or dietary needs (very impressive)! Jade has a way with animals - my cat (normally a little skittish of people he isn’t familiar with) warmed right up to him. Even checked the mail for me (without being asked). Can’t recommend high enough & I will definitely call upon his services again!”

“Hailey is the person you want your pets to see while you’re away. My boys immediately took to her and were happy to see her stop by. Hailey has such a warm and calming presence that made them both comfortable. I appreciated her communication with me to let me know how the visit was going as well as the videos and photos she sent over. This would have been a 10 star rating if this app had that option :)”

About: I have been living with dogs for my entire life and, since moving to Connecticut 6 months ago, I have been missing these furry friends! I have had the pleasure of working with 2 older dogs who had various age-related health conditions until the end of their lives and, in the last 4 years, have been able to raise and train 2 (very playful and mischievous) puppies. I work 9-5 in North Haven, CT and am available for early morning care and anytime after 6 pm during the work week. I am usually free all weekend and enjoy going on early morning walks and hikes! I find that with each dog, their preferences tend to guide my behavior around them. I have always been around dogs and puppies who required a lot of exercise and have bountiful amounts of personality and energy, but I also know that many pets, especially around new people, may require more time to warm up and may need extra care and attention. Ensuring the the owner's and dog's needs are met are my highest priority and I take extra care to note what a dog's daily and nightly routine is so to make sure I do not throw them off off from their daily life!

I have experience in pet sitting for friends and family since I was 12 years old. I have had animals for most of my life, with experience owning rats, Guinea pigs, bunnies, fish, lizards, frogs, cats and dogs! I am comfortable with pets that may require some extra TLC as well as all breeds, ages, and sizes. I am fully devoted to ensuring your pet is safe, happy and feeling right at home in my care!

I know each individual has their own requirements for care and special quirks. I treat all pets under my care as if they are my own. I would be happy to use specific leashes, bowls, food, etc. Please let me know what I can do to make your pet have the most positive experience!

“Excellent service. Michelle was very accommodating and helped us on two last minute service requests in addition to our original booking for house visitation while we were away. Quick responses as well as frequent updates with pictures. Will def request again. Highly recommended.”

About: I have owned and cared for dogs for as long as I can remember, and for the past eight years my family has run a dog rescue out of our home. Because of that, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of every size, age, and temperament. I am comfortable with any dog, from playful puppies to seniors. Growing up in a rescue environment taught me how to read dog behavior, build trust quickly, and make sure each dog feels safe and supported. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering basic medications, and managing energetic dogs who need extra exercise. As a pet owner, I know how important communication and updates are. So I will always give regular updates and treat dogs as if they are my own. I have classes at night from 6-9pm Mon-Thursday. I am currently volunteering as a wrestling coach for Wesleyan University, so some of my weekends may be busy or unavailable. Other than that, I am very flexible with my hours. When caring for a pet, it’s important to make sure they feel as comfortable as possible. For me, that means following their routine closely so they always feel safe and secure. I plan to stick to their schedule, maintain their normal habits, and give them the same love and attention they’re used to when their owners are home.

About: I have never known life without a four legged friend by my side :) Growing up I was surrounded by and took care of our family’s rottweilers and currently have a 9 year old rottie, a 5 year old golden retriever and a 2 year old grey tabby cat. My animals have wildly different temperaments and varying physical abilities and I have known them through infancy to their elder years. I’m available monday through friday after 3 pm and open availability on the weekends! I would love to help you take care of your pets while you’re away. I currently work first shift at a laboratory full time. I am home from work around 3pm and make time to exercise and take care of my pets while i’m home. I have developed good time management skills and live by my google calendar and am more than capable and happy to fit your pets into my schedule. My two dogs get plenty of outside time in their fenced in backyard and are very high energy so get plenty of walks and enrichment. My cat —while very docile and sweet — also has loads of energy and needs lots of attention when he’s not playing with his canine buds. I am very diligent about his water consumption and eating habits as he gets chronic UTI’s and is on a medicated diet.

“Kate was a great sitter and very well qualified, appreciated our Sammy, went above and beyond”

About: I love dogs and enjoy nothing more than a good walk with them! My experience ranges from caring for my loyal Husky for 14 years to currently training a Giant Schnauzer puppy. I understand that every dog has a different personality, and I’m happy to accommodate puppies, seniors, and active walkers alike. While I'm usually busy during the week I'm pretty open on weekends and Mondays I just need the one day notice to schedule to come help with your best friend I provide a safe and controlled environment for every walk. I double-check all equipment and stay alert to our surroundings to avoid hazards before they happen. I value your trust and treat your pet and property with the highest level of responsibility.

“Shannon was excellent! I could tell she adored my cats and genuinely cared about their well-being while I was away. Absolutely would use again!”

About: I’ve grown up around puppies and cats and have been caring for pets from a young age, which has given me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and basic care. I also currently work with puppies as part of my job, where I care for them daily and make sure they’re healthy, safe, and happy. Being around both dogs and cats every day has helped me understand their needs, personalities, and routines, and I truly love caring for animals. Pet care fits easily into my daily schedule. I’m used to caring for animals every day and am able to plan my routine around feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I’m flexible, reliable, and make sure each pet gets the time, attention, and care they need. I care for pets by sticking closely to their usual routines to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding, walks or litter box care, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I always make sure pets are safe, well-supervised, and in a clean environment, whether I’m caring for them in my home or in a client’s home. I also keep owners updated and make sure their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.
