Emily C.

“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.

“Carole has cared for our cats several times and we will continue to use her services whenever she is available! She is professional, courteous, and friendly. She does everything we ask of her and spends time playing with our cats. We know we will come back to happy and healthy cats! She also sends many wonderful photos after every visit! Carole is fantastic!”

Kathryn F.

Veronica H.

“Jen is amazing! This is the second time we have used her and we are always so impressed! She sends videos and pictures of both our dog and cat that brighten our day when we are away. She’s very reliable, communicative, and we come back home to happy pets, would definitely recommend!!”

“Marie did an amazing job! Our dog was so happy and Marie sent us plenty of pictures while we were away.”

Chris C.

“Jess was available with only a few days notice and was very prompt with all responses while scheduling. While last minute isn’t how I like to roll, our holiday plans changed unexpectedly. She did a great job with my instructions caring for our senior cat and left everything in perfect order. I’d recommend her without hesitation!”

Charlene R.

“Liz took care of my cat and they were an amazing sitter! My cat had some stomach problems and unfortunately made a mess and Liz helped clean up and kept me updated on how my cat was doing. I would 100% recommend them to take care of your fur baby!”

About: Hi all! My name is Veronica. I'm an Amherst College alumna ('17) and current 4th year med student (Dartmouth, Geisel School of Medicine '26). I spent my childhood in rural NY, TN, and VA with my grandparents and our dogs, cats, and parrot. In my household, animals were viewed as family, and were always treated as such. I've been taking care of/loving cats & dogs of all sizes (we have owned a daschund named Mr. Wiggles, an Irish Wolfhound named Hobbs, a collie named Blue, to name a few) and ages (puppies to salt&pepper seniors) since I was 5. My partner and I are also proud cat parents to two bonded, adopted cats (Gaston & Basil). I have cared for several friends', neighbors', and strangers turned clients' cats and dogs while they were away/traveling! I hope to bring the same love, respect, and care to your pet that I show my own when you are not there. No pet is too small, too big, too silly, or too drooly for me! I will be based in New Haven, CT working on my residency application, research, and other personal projects with much free time in the upcoming year (2025-26). I am happy to house-sit your pet in your own home, be a dog-walker, or drop-in to feed/walk/play with your pet. For dog-walking & drop-in services, I would prefer if clients are within a 10-15 minute drive from New Haven, CT, though I will consider each request individually. Unfortunately, I cannot accommodate dogs or cats in my own apartment.

“Katelyn took great care of my cat and bunny while we were away. They are both quite needy with attention and I could tell they were both very happy for her visits. Definitely recommend!”

About: I’ve had several large breed dogs since I was a child. I am comfortable handling dogs that pull and are like little tanks. My rottie used to stop and sniff everything, and he set our pace on walks. I’m an adjunct English professor, so I can also help your pets with their college admission essays.I am open all summer, but will be teaching in the evenings this fall. I can’t currently care for your pets in my apartment, because my cats said no, but I will be respectful and careful in your home.

“Diana was great. We did a virtual meet and greet; but it went well! She showed up and took great care of the dogs and even fed them! Would definitely book again!”

Zack D.

“Molly was great with my cat Cinnamon while I was away for a few days! Cinnamon clearly took a liking to her despite being quite aloof with new people. Molly sent photos each day which I really appreciated so that I knew that Cinnamon was being cared for in my absence! Thanks, Molly!”

Rachel S.

“Mary Rose did a great job feeding and watering my cat, Lily! She administered meds each day as well. She communicated effectively and sent pictures during each visit. In addition, she washed the dirty plates from the prior visits and left everything neat and clean. I would highly recommend Mary Rose, and I’ll book with her again!”

Jill 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.

“Katherine was great with our kitties! They can be quite a handful because they’re very curious and nosy but she handled them well. My girls who are super shy really warmed up to her and I came home to some very happy kitties!”

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life, from playful puppies to senior pups, and I’ve always loved caring for them. Right now, being single and working in healthcare means my schedule doesn’t allow me to have a dog of my own, so I pour all that love and attention into the pets I walk and care for. Every dog I meet gets the same patience, playfulness, and affection I gave my own growing up. I work three days a week as a Physician Assistant, which means I have multiple days off, sometimes during the week, sometimes on weekends. On my days off, I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting, and I’m happy to work with your schedule. My availability can be flexible week to week, so there’s a good chance we can find a time that works for you and your pup. I live alone in a cozy one-bedroom apartment, which means your pup will get my full attention without other pets or people. Right across the street is a beautiful park which is perfect for safe, fun walks and plenty of adventures. I always make sure pets are secure on leash, keep a close eye on their comfort, and provide a calm, loving environment where they can relax and feel at home or let out all their energy!

“Olivia has been absolutely wonderful with my dog - and so, so communicative. My dog loved her right away! I couldn't be happier - I've already rebooked her twice.”
