“Super helpful with some last-minute cat feedings! I had some video instructions that ended up not going through in time for her first visit, and Jessica was able to figure it all out like a pro.”

“I couldn’t have been more thankful for the service Bailee provided. She is a very caring individual and you can tell she has a love for animals. I felt relaxed and comfortable while being away from my fur baby. As this was the first trip I have been able to take I will be definitely rebooking with Bailee in the future! She was an amazing provider and very informative! Followed all directions perfectly!”

About: **Moving Out of New Haven end of June 2026** I've been a cat mom for 5+ years and a dog aunt for 6+ years. Earning a cat's love and a dog's cuddle are both incredibly rewarding experiences that I've been blessed with many times. I hope to experience such love with your loved ones! I am currently unemployed so Monday through Friday is generally flexible besides a few commitments that are consistent each week. For weekends, I'm typically most flexible on Sundays. I typically start my days at 8am and end around 8pm but again, the hours are flexible- please just reach out! I'm a homebody so to get some fresh air, I run around downtown New Haven 3x a week for 2-3 miles (generally Mon, Wed, & Fri). On days I don't run, I go on 5-10min walks. When I'm not job hunting, I am either baking bread, knitting, or watching anime. I am unavailable on: Mondays & Wednesdays after 6PM, Tuesdays between 5-7PM, Fridays between 4PM-7:30PM Most Saturdays (family & partner visit often!) I like to meet every cat/dog parent(s) beforehand, even if it is just for a few minutes. This helps me understand what is expected of me as the caretaker and if there is anything for me to be aware of. For example, I have a fur nephew who eats anything so he has to walk with a muzzle and I've had a fur niece who takes specific medications at different times of the day. I also always love seeing the parents with their loved ones because it gives me an idea of what type of interactions I'd be having with their loved ones. I care about cleanliness and will make sure the home is left exactly how you leave it. I also respect any dietary restrictions if there are any in the household. Lastly, as a cat mom herself, I care about receiving communication from those who are taking care of my beloved, so I enjoy updating parents with photos and how their loved ones are doing. Please let me know if this is something you'd like me to do!

“Alyssa always provides our cats with the best care! She has really gotten to know each of their personalities and needs. I feel a lot better when we need to go out of town now that we have found Alyssa to help!”

“Kelsey is great! She takes my black lab out weekly, and Kay is always so happy to see her. She makes sure she goes to the bathroom and gets a good walk in - highly recommend!”

Marla L.

“Kelli was exactly what we are looking for! She followed all of our instructions and made some helpful suggestions that improved the life of our cat without being imposing. She even brought some new litter when we ran out! And she was able to provide insulin injections with very minor instruction. I will continue to trust her with the life and well being of our cat.”

About: An absolute dog lover 💗 !! I’ve cared for my friends’ dogs while they were traveling, usually for one to two weeks at a time, and I’ve also volunteered to walk dogs in my neighborhood. My dream has always been to have a dog of my own, but one of my family members is allergic. I’m currently a student and would love to meet more dogs and help care for your pets when you’re away or busy! I’m currently a student doing remote lab work, so my schedule is usually flexible during both weekdays and weekends, but availability may vary by day. For safety reasons, I prefer to complete all walks before dark, ideally before around 8 pm in the summer. I’m happy to discuss specific times in advance to make sure the schedule works for both of us! I don’t currently offer boarding. For walks, I usually prioritize the dog’s normal route and routine. If the owner is comfortable, I can also walk nearby parks, greenways, or quiet neighborhood areas while keeping safety and the dog’s comfort in mind.

“Carole is a thorough and thoughtful sitter! She treats our lovely, but admittedly feisty, cat with plenty of patience and compassion. She’s flexible with great problem-solving skills, and her reports are consistent and detailed. We’ve used her twice for 10+ day trips and wouldn’t hesitate to request her services again!”

Kathleen M.

“Melissa and her family are so awesome and we’re so lucky to know them now. Our dog was so well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

Kristin K.

“Sarah is fantastic—responsive, flexible when some of my plans changed at the last minute, and so sweet with my cat. Can’t wait to rebook with her!”

Morgan B.

“Emily dropped in once a day to check on our two cats for several days while we were away. She is EXCELLENT with communication. We never had a doubt that our cats werent getting enough love with Emily. 10/10 would ask Emily to cat-sit again! Thanks Emily!”

Kristine P.

“Andrea is wonderful! She was able to help on a very short notice and even extended the time of her visit. She was so sweet and understanding of my crazy 6mo old puppy! We can’t wait to use Andrea again”

About: I've loved animals all of my life and I have 2 cats but, I also know how to take care of dogs. Animals are a passion of mine. I do work but, I'll have time to be with your dogs. I am looking for some bonding time with dogs and to be outside with them. I have everything my pets need and I would make sure I am able to take care of your pets and make sure they have everything they need.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, especially cats. Over the years, I have become the go-to pet sitter within my friend group and regularly care for my friends’ cats while they are away on vacation. I also grew up informally pet sitting for neighbors and friends, giving me experience caring for pets in a variety of home environments and routines. I currently care for my own cat, Reami, a 3-year-old Ragamuffin whom I have raised since he was a kitten. Reami has anxiety-related health issues that can contribute to urinary tract problems, so I am very familiar with providing attentive, patient, and consistent care for sensitive pets. Because of his needs, I understand the importance of maintaining a calm environment, monitoring behavior closely, sticking to routines, encouraging play and enrichment, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. In addition to caring for Reami, I have also helped care for my roommates’ cats in the past, including feeding, playtime, litter box maintenance, and general companionship. Through these experiences, I have become comfortable caring for cats with different personalities, energy levels, and temperaments — from shy and anxious cats to highly social and playful ones. While I mainly prefer cat sitting, I also have some experience with dogs, including walking friends’ dogs and taking them on hikes and outdoor outings. I am happy to provide patient, attentive care tailored to each pet’s personality and comfort level. As a sitter, I prioritize communication, reliability, cleanliness, and making sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment while their owners are away. I am a graduate student whose lab is only a 15 minute walk away from home. My schedule is extremely flexible and except for few meetings throughout the week, my schedule is fully up to me. I am also able to leave at any point for short breaks to take pets out for walks/ check up on them. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet I care for. I understand that pets — especially cats — can be sensitive to changes in routine, so I do my best to keep their schedule and environment consistent while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, litter box cleaning, playtime, exercise, and any specific routines or preferences. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pets are happy and well cared for. As the owner of an anxious cat with special care needs, I am very attentive to pets’ behavior, comfort, and stress levels. I value patience, cleanliness, reliability, and making sure every pet feels safe, relaxed, and loved.

“Julia was an outstanding sitter for our darling Maine Coon. She was reliable, trustworthy, attentive and communicated with us throughout. When we got home Saga was healthy, happy and had a shining coat! We highly recommend her, thank you Julia!!”
