Dog Sitting Fairfield

“Avery was fantastic! Great communication, kept me updated each time she checked in. As my dog has gotten older, she can be a little difficult to deal with but Avery handled her great. Highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter!”

“Tara did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats while we were away! She provided us with detailed updates and photos every visit and was excellent with communication. Would highly recommend her to anyone!”

About: Grown up with multiple dogs my whole life! Self trained them all and love taking long walks and giving pets! Love hanging around dogs and caring for them. I am currently a student at Fairfield University but can be flexible outside of class time! I have a car so I am also able to drive myself wherever needed. I have a dog which we walk with a leash. I can handle dogs very easily as I’m used to it from growing up with them!

About: I have been surrounded by animals for most of my life and truly believe they are some of the most loyal and loving companions. I currently have a 16-year-old Papillon, and I was blessed to have my Pit Bull for 13 wonderful years before she passed away last year. Caring for senior dogs has taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of providing gentle, loving care. I also have experience caring for my sister’s two Bengal cats, whom I lived with and helped care for over the course of two years. This has given me experience with both dogs and cats and an understanding that every pet has a unique personality and needs. In addition, I worked at Dogtopia, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. That experience strengthened my ability to multitask, remain calm in busy environments, and ensure every dog received the attention, affection, and care they deserved. During the school year, I work as a substitute teacher, which gives me a flexible schedule. I adapt quickly to new routines and understand how important it is for pet owners to know their furry family members are in safe, caring hands. When caring for your pets, I will treat them as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, respect, and lots of love. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, cuddling on the couch, or simply keeping them company, my goal is to make them feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect that I would expect for my own. I’m a substitute teacher during the school year, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to make time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. My day usually starts at 5:30am or 6:00am and ends by 4pm, with my weekends being free and many holidays off. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions exactly as provided to ensure their routine stays consistent and stress-free. I’m very neat, organized, and respectful of the home, and I always treat it as if it were my own. I make sure doors and gates are securely closed at all times, keep a close eye on pets when they’re outside, and stay alert for any wildlife or other potential hazards. My goal is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy while maintaining a clean and well-cared-for home environment.

About: I've grown up around animals my entire life, especially dogs, and have always been comfortable caring for them. Both of my grandparents have owned dogs over the years, so I've spent a lot of time around dogs of different breeds and sizes. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and understand the importance of providing them with attention, patience, and care. In addition to caring for family pets, I've pet sat for my neighbor's dog and have helped walk and care for pets belonging to friends and family. Whether it's going for walks, feeding, playing, or simply keeping pets company, I make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I'm currently home for the summer from college, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week and on weekends. I'm happy to work with a variety of schedules. Caring for pets is a great way for me to earn extra income while spending time with animals, something I've always enjoyed. For walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize your pet's safety, comfort, and routine. I always follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and any specific needs their pet may have. During walks, I make sure dogs remain securely leashed and avoid situations that could put them at risk. During check-ins, I'll provide companionship, playtime, fresh water, and any other care requested. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you're away, and I'll keep you updated with messages and photos whenever possible.

“Charlotte was great! So dependable and easy going letting out our precious Pomeranian who is anything but easy going. Charlotte persisted to earn her trust and slowly Poppy warmed up. We will absolutely use Charlotte again. We feel very lucky to have come across her wonderful Pet Sitting Services.”

“Taylor took such great care of our two dogs. She made sure they were well fed, had plenty of water, and got tons of play and fun while she was visiting.”

About: I have had dogs for over 10 years and absolutely love all dogs. I love to work with all types of dogs and will be sure to make your dog feel safe and welcome with me! I am a recent college graduate and am working in pet care during part of my gap year to help save up for my own dog. I am in the local area for the months of November and December between travel periods and have a very open schedule during that time. Please reach out if you’re interested in working with me :) I have had my own dogs for many years and have helped others care for their pets as well. I am very comfortable working with dogs of all sizes and breeds and will be sure to keep your dog safe and comfortable if you choose to work with me!

About: I have over 40 years experience caring for dogs and animals. My experience includes employment with a veterinarian, employment at a kennel, and a lifetime of dog ownership. We custom built our home to be a perfect paradise for a dog's life. We have a beautiful fenced in private backyard that offers a grass area, deck area, and a woods area for those adventuresome puppies! We have a dog door for those dog guests that want frequent outings or door service by us for those less ambitious doggies. A typical day at doggy paradise includes numerous supervised romps in the fenced in backyard, walks in the neighborhood, lots of love, and plenty of water and meals as per owners instructions. As a little background we just lost our last two dogs within the past two years, one to old age, and one young to cancer. We still want dogs in our life so we are now boarding. Note: An additional daily surcharge will be collected for dogs over 55lbs, details will be addressed at booking depending on dogs weight and age. Thank you Full time care. We will take great care of your pet in our home and fenced in backyard. Typically there is an adult present for full 24 hr care. I have a fenced in yard where dogs are let out. I follow your specific dogs instructions and routine, depending on what they are used to.

“Taylor is the best. She came to meet my puppy before taking the job which I loved. She is awesome and my Chihuahua, King Olaf, was a happy puppy upon my return so I know Taylor took very good care of him. Thank you!”

About: I have plenty of experience being around and helping take care of dogs all ages sizes and breeds! I love pups who want to run around or just lounge on the couch! I’m more than happy to treat yours like my own. I’m currently a full time second year graduate student at SHU, but my classes are mostly in the morning. I have some long days but always finish before 5. Fridays are wide open including weekends and most days I’m done fairly early! I am happy to accommodate whatever safety measures make you and your pup comfortable! If they need to be crated that’s perfectly fine, if they can run around without a leash that’s also great too!

“Very nice girl.”

About: I have been babysitting for my neighbors, friends, and family. They really rely on me to take care of their babies when they are on vacation, at work, or running late. They have also asked me to run home and take care of their animals. I'm currently working a part-time job, so I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pups! I'm available on the weekends and weekdays. I have a multiz male dog who is very friendly and playful. He is used to being around other dogs and loves to go to the dog park to play with them.

About: I previously co-founded a dog training business, managing client relationships and operations, but I have since stepped away from it. Prior to that, I worked for Coaching for Paws, a renowned dog training business in northern Connecticut. I have been working with dogs for around five years and have experience with training basic obedience, dog walking, dog sitting, and overall care. I currently have most weekdays free to dedicate to your pups’ needs, which allows me to provide consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going on walks, playing, feeding, or simply keeping them company. Because of my flexible schedule, I am able to accommodate different care needs and maintain reliable routines for pets, helping them feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. I have lots of experience with different dogs and understand the needs of dogs and owners. I am able to meet any needs or criteria.

“A fantastic relationship through and through. Kim is extremely responsive to communications. Her interaction with my little dog Fred - who is very shy and tentative with new people - was great. She reassured me during my trip that Fred was doing well and interacted with Kim very well. I am grateful for the sitting / home visits Kim provided. I would not hesitate to use Kim in the future.”

About: Growing up with cats and various household pets, and loving dogs all my life has lead me to care and appreciate pets into my adult life. Looking to take care of the ones who love us the most for you. I am currently a full time music educator during the weekdays so I am available after school to walk and pet sit on an hourly basis. On Fridays and weekends I am also available for over night care as needed. In your home I will abide by all rules and routines you may have already. I can also ensure consistent care and attention to your pet’s needs.

About: I began pet sitting for neighbors in Boston and continued building my network after moving back to Connecticut. I now care for dogs throughout the year for friends and their families, usually four to five weeks annually. I work fully remote, so pets get steady company and attention throughout the day. I enjoy having animals around and treat them like part of the routine, not an interruption. I have an indoor cat who is fully vaccinated, so dogs are still welcome. If your pet needs a calm home, a reliable schedule, and someone who is present, I am a strong fit. I work fully remote, so pets are with me throughout the day. I start early, which leaves time for morning routines before work, and I take regular breaks for walks and check ins. Evenings are for longer walks, feeding, and downtime. If a pet has specific needs, I adjust my routine to match them. Pets stay in a calm, tidy home where I am present throughout the day. I work fully remote, so dogs get steady company, regular walk breaks, playtime, and a consistent routine. I follow each pet’s feeding schedule, medication needs, and any rules you share. My indoor cat is fully vaccinated and comfortable with visiting dogs. I introduce pets slowly and make sure everyone has their own space. If your dog has specific routines or preferences, I adjust to match them.

“She was amazing ! She was on my point with the walks and my dog truly enjoyed her . Will book again”

About: I have had dogs all my life. As well as dog sitter for friends and family. On top of basic care such as feeding and walking I can also bathe and groom them. I am home for the summer so I have an open schedule to care for your dog at anytime you need. Including weekends and holidays. In my home I have a friendly dog who loves to make friends. I take dogs on long walks through the hiking trail next to my home.

About: I have grown so fond of taking care of fur babies the more years I do it. I enjoy working with all different breeds and building a connection to the pets I take care of. I’ve learn to work with all ages, breeds, behaviors. The best part? Knowing that people entrust me to bring their fur babies back to me, and knowing that the dogs are excited to return. I have a part time job currently so I have plenty of time to be with your pet(s) whenever I’m not at work, so it’s flexible. I like to thoroughly ask questions about the dog I’ll be taking care of (food, any medications? Exercise? Do they like to play? Etc.) I want to make sure not only yourself but the dog is as comfortable as can be.
