I had a family wedding to go to and wanted to find a safe and comfortable place to leave Winston, my young dorgi (half dachshund, half corgi) who had never been away from me since I was lucky enough to get him. Laura and her family turned out to be the perfect people and place. With a beautiful, safe home out in the country, a deck and fenced in yard where he could play, a open-plan house where he was visible at all times, Laura’s place was perfect. And the bonus: three little girls who adored him and lavished attention upon him, much to his delight. Laura, herself, was wonderful, caring, professional, delightful. She took him on long walks which he loved, texted me photos and updates on this progress during the stay, saw to his every need and even made some recommendations to me as to feeding bowls which might slow his eating down (he snarfs up his food in seconds!). I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come home. But I think he knows he can go back and stay in this home away from home which he will definitely be doing the next time I need to go away without him. I can’t tell you the peace of mind that all this brought me, knowing that he was happy and being well-cared-for and loved.

Eva was so great! She bailed me out in a pinch when I needed a last minute sitter. My toddler of a dog can be a bit of a brat and she took him on with a smile.

Wonderful, caring, considerate, and responsible family boarded our two pomskies. Responsive and communicative - sent pictures and updates. Dogs got walked and played with. Medicine was successfully administered. Generous and flexible- dogs were able to stay a few extra days to accommodate some changes in our plans. Dogs were well taken care of, would definitely book with Matt B again.

Tina watched our special needs, almost blind, senior shih tzu for the second time yesterday while we attended an event at Mohegan Sun. Our pup is a recent rescue with severe separation anxiety so she can be a bit challenging to sit. Tina is INCREDIBLE with her! We are so grateful to have found her. In addition to being fantastic with our dog, she is easy to work with, great communication, and just a wonderful person. We already have a few more sits lined up on the coming weeks. We highly recommend Tina for any of your pup sitting/walking needs. Thank you so much Tina!

About: Hello! I’ve taken care of my own pets since I was young, for about 8 years now as well as dog sat my older sisters two dogs and my oldest sisters three cats. I’ve also house sat for my cousins and grandparents various animals over the years and I love it. Meeting new pets warms my heart and brings me comfort as i’m not from the area it would be nice to get to meet some people from the area and make some new furry friends. I currently work nights so i’m free to pop over in the morning or afternoon and check in on the pets when needed or give them a walk! I love going on walks with my pets so if you want your pet to get a good walk in i’m your gal! I also really enjoy trying to teach pets new tricks with treats and positive reinforcement, and bathing animals so I offer bathing/groom services if needed.

I was extremely nervous leaving our 1 year old with someone other than my family as she hasn't left us since we adopted last July. However, my fears were calmed leaving Demi with Nuno. My husband had a great meet and greet and then she stayed with Nuno for a couple nights. Nuno has a wonderful friendly dog, Bisca, and a large yard for the dogs to play. He also has children who showered Demi with love also. ❤️ Great communication while he watched her and I'm already booking him again for our next weekend away!

We are so grateful for Christle! She went above and beyond taking care of Scooby and kept us updated throughout his stay. When our flight was delayed, she was incredibly kind and flexible about extending his stay. It’s such a relief knowing Scooby is in such loving hands. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again!

Brittany and her family (dogs included) always make my dogs feel right at home!! She has a great yard that my dogs love to spend time in, and she even takes all the dogs for little “pack walks” around her property. My dogs have spent as little as 2 nights and as long as 2 weeks with Brittany, and they’ve loved every visit! I highly recommend reaching out to Brittany for your dog sitting needs. I look forward to booking again soon!
