1. Jen N.

“If I could leave Jen 6 stars, I would. She is not only communicative and easy to work with, she’s also so kind. I don’t know about you, but that is so appreciated when you’re stressed about getting some last-minute care for your pup. She’s also great with Jax and he loves her. Highly recommend contacting Jen for fur baby needs!”


2. Lisa F.

“I can’t say enough fabulous things about Lisa and the care she provides. She’s one of those good vibes people. Our dog loves her, and she even went way above and beyond including my grandmother we just relocated to CT in all the fun activities. Thank you so much Lisa”


3. Megan D.

“Megan is very sweet with my dogs and they like her a lot. She varies their route each day, which keeps them entertained. After a week of excellent care, I highly recommend Megan 😁”


4. Bianca G.

“Bianca was very sweet and confident when she came for our meet and greet. She kept me updated on my dogs walk and was a real life saver. I plan on using her again in the future.”




5. Jeanne F.

“Jeanne was so good with my two pups! She was so kind and caring with them! She went above and beyond giving them extra love and homemade treats! She took them out for a walk while I was getting married and made sure we had nothing to worry about with the dogs! She made sure to stay a little extra and play with them! Very personal and professional! Definitely will use her in the future!”


6. Maryanne C.

“She does any amazing job walking my peanut ever day. I highly recommend her as she is very caring and does a really good job.”


7. Amber S.
“Amber watches our dogs and elderly cat regularly for weekends away, She really cares about them and they seem to really like when she stays with them. Daggett our finicky eater, barely gives her trouble even when he's decided the latest kibble isn't up to snuff and Norbert has adopted her as his comfort person when he gets the chance. Gizmo, our 16 year old mostly blind tabby follows her around and likes to use her as a pillow. All and all Amber is a great caregiver and I can not recommend her enough.”




8. Mikayla & Justin W.
About: Hello! My name is Mikayla and I am a Yale graduate student who recently moved to New Haven with my husband. Since 2010, and on my own since 2017, I took care of my family yellow lab, Molly, until she passed at 13.5 years old. Through this, I have had experience with all stages of a dog’s life, with extensive experience in senior care. I am also available for boarding other pets as well (i.e. cats). Due to my flexible school schedule I am available to walk or board your pet at most times throughout the week. My husband, Justin, and I cannot wait to welcome your pet into our home and we promise to love and take of them while you are away. Feel free to reach out if you have any direct questions. Looking forward to caring for your pet!! 😊 I am a graduate nursing student with a flexible schedule where I only go into school or clinicals 2x a week. I am also able to come back throughout the day during those times. Lastly, my husband works from home so someone is always there to care for your pet. I have a partially fenced yard for your dog to play and use the restroom. Our home is open and clean, making it easy for cats and dogs to move around. It is 2 floors, but the first floor is main living so senior pets do not need to access the stairs.

“Azeen looked after our yellow lab while we were on vacation. She was terrific. She walked him twice a day, took him swimming, dried him off, and looked after his needs. She even helped with our pool, and turned on our AC on the final day. I highly recommend her, and would not hesitate to use her again. She's also very friendly”


17. gianna d.
“We used Gianna for our english bulldog Stella! It was our first time leaving her and Gianna made it the best first time experience! She went above and beyond with the care and attention for our Stella. Gianna was attentive on walks and even made sure she was giving Stella her medication on time everyday! When we returned home after the weekend, our home was perfectly ready for us and our girl Stella was a happy girl!”


18. Heather R.

“Heather is wonderful! Maizie cozied up to her immediately, and it's super-clear she and Heather have a tight bond even after just a couple of walks (and belly rubs..). And I get to come home at the end of the day to a very happy and calm pup.”
