“Brianna took great care of Peanut. She was responsive in communication and kept me updated with photos of Peanut. I was a bit late in sending Peanut and early in picking up Peanut, but Brianna accommodated my schedule. Peanut seems to have made friends with Brianna's dog and is very happy when being picked up. Peanut also seems to have had a comfortable time on Brianna's bed.”

“Stephanie took great care of our pup and sent us pictures throughout the day. It eased our minds about leaving our pup in a new place while touring the Museum. If we are ever in the area again we will plan to use her pet services again!”

“Steven and Claudia are awesome dog people. They kept in touch with pictures and a video and Mello was very happy when I picked him up. Would definitely book again!!”

“Zuly and her family took wonderful care of my poodle, Babette. She is a great communicator, and understands the needs of dogs from years of experience. Her home was neat, immaculate, and felt very welcoming. I look forward to using her services in the future!”

“My fur baby requires a great deal of attention due to some health challenges. This makes me very careful about who cares for him. I am so Blessed to have Liza taking care of my lil guy. I would highly recommend her to people that need puppy ? care”


“My colleague recommended Howard to me as “the dog whisperer” and I can’t agree more! I was a little nervous to drop my pup off for daycare less than a week after rescuing her, as she is quite wary of strangers. She jumped right into Howard’s arms and apparently spent the rest of the day happy as can be cuddled on his lap. She came home happy, tired, and ready for dinner & bed! Howard also does a wonderful job of sending updates and photos throughout the day. The first day she went to Howard’s, my pup hadn’t pooped in 2 days and it was something I was worried about. He sent me a text as soon as she went so that I would have peace of mind. She has since been back to Howard’s a few times a week and I can not recommend him more!”
“What a great way to spend a day! My pup clearly had the best time with Cheyenne and her dogs (as evidenced by the photos), and it was a great peace of mind to know she was happy and well taken-care-of.”

“Andrea was just wonderful. It was my first time leaving them with a sitter. I knew I could trust her with my babies right off the bat. She’s sweet and caring and communicated with me the whole time because I was anxious being away from them. It’s easy to see that she is a dog person to the core. Highly recommend!”

“Sabina was awesome. Our plans when visiting New Haven changed several times and Sabina was very accommodating to meet our needs. Plus, Sam is normally quite shy around new people but warmed quickly to Sabina.”

About: I grew up with pets in the house but am currently away from my cat Dede at home. I miss him so very much and I would love to spread my love for these fury little ones!

About: I was very lucky to be born into a dog-loving family and was raised learning how to care for furry friends as a part of the family. Since then, I have continued to dog sit for friends and family alike, including elderly dogs that are deaf and blind. My other job is to support people through crisis situations, which allows me to respond effectively and responsibly in case something unexpected arises. I am very organized and punctual and have lots of practice in coordination. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to frequent traveling, it’s sadly not the right time for me. I love having the opportunity through Rover. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy! First and foremost, I like to introduce myself to the pet to see if they feel comfortable with me. Once I am able to establish trust with an introduction to your pet, I will make sure that I understand from the owner what they expect to keep the pet safe and happy. The biggest thing is to approach each pet with patience and care, and focus on ensuring the pet feels safe and happy and the owners are able to have peace of mind and strong communication while they are gone.

Andrea was just wonderful. It was my first time leaving them with a sitter. I knew I could trust her with my babies right off the bat. She’s sweet and caring and communicated with me the whole time because I was anxious being away from them. It’s easy to see that she is a dog person to the core. Highly recommend!

Liza and her partner were absolutely amazing watching Alfie!! They both had such calm, positive energy and made me feel completely comfortable leaving him in their care. Alfie came home happy, relaxed, and so well taken care of. I’d absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!

We had a last minute need for day care for our Bassett hound puppy and Stephanie was able to help us out. She communicated clearly and provided us with many photos and good feedback. Our pup had a great experience and was tired out when she came home. Stephanie gave her excellent care.

Marianna was absolutely wonderful! I left my dog with her for 7 hours and he was a smiling bundle of joy when I picked him up. She took care to introduce my dog gently to the others in her home. She sent me photos letting me know that he was relaxed and being a good boy. Would definitely bring my pup back to her.

Miranda and her husband tool great care of my Izzy and Julio, even on a last minute booking on a road trip for a wedding. We had a quick meet and greet the morning of and everyone got along great. They have a nice big backyard which is always a plus for us. Would recommend Miranda if around the New Haven area.
