About: Growing up, my family didn’t have pets of our own, so whenever we had the opportunity to host or care for one, I truly valued it. Over time, what started as excitement developed into a genuine passion for building real connections with animals. I’ve cared for dogs with very different personalities — from protective, high-energy breeds to small companion dogs. I pay close attention to body language and natural behaviors so I can approach each dog in a way that builds trust and comfort. I match their energy, respect their boundaries, and create an environment where they feel safe and understood. I have hands-on experience with puppies, leash training, and maintaining structure and routine. I’m comfortable reinforcing positive walking habits and supporting established crate training in a way that helps dogs feel calm and secure. I also carefully follow specific diets and detailed feeding instructions, understanding how important consistency is to a dog’s well-being. Outside of pet care, I’m building experience working with young adults with special needs. That work has strengthened my patience, attentiveness to nonverbal cues, and commitment to being dependable. I believe people should have someone they can rely on, and I carry that same responsibility into caring for animals. My focus is simple: safety, consistency, engagement, and genuine connection. ⸻ Core Strengths • Trust-building & reading canine body language • Puppy care & routine reinforcement • Leash handling & basic command reinforcement • Crate training support & positive association • Following specific diets and care instructions • Enrichment-based play & mental stimulation • Calm, patient, dependable care I currently work from 8–10 AM and 5:30–8 PM, which leaves my early mornings, late mornings, mid-day, and late evenings fully available for pet care. This schedule allows me to provide consistent attention throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feeding routines, and check-ins. Dogs in my care are not left alone for extended periods without a plan in place. I’ve successfully boarded two dogs with this routine, and we had a great experience maintaining structure, engagement, and plenty of activity throughout the day. My availability works especially well for: • Morning and mid-day walks • Consistent feeding schedules • Puppies who need more frequent attention • Dogs who benefit from structured activity and engagemen No matter where I am, in my home or at a client’s home. I prioritize following the care routine the owner provides. This ensures pets have stability and consistency while their loved ones are away. I make sure to provide: • Regular feeding according to specific diets and schedules • Plenty of mental and physical stimulation through walks, play, and enrichment activities • Safe, supervised time in the home, including supporting crate routines when applicable • Consistent attention to their comfort, energy levels, and emotional needs • Clear communication with owners, including updates and photos I tailor my care to each individual dog, respecting their boundaries and energy, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and engaged until their owners return.

About: Grew up on a farm caring for animals since my youth. now enjoy the company of visiting dogs, just like I had with my own. I currently work part-time and many situations able to bring a boarding dog with me; as I work with mostly older folks who would love the sweetness of a dog visit; considered therapy. I have a side fenced yard, safe from the road, and only do private walks in a comfortable grass field near my home, leashed and one at a time for individual attention.

About: Dogs thrive on calm structure and that’s exactly what I provide. I create a controlled, low stress environment where dogs are calm, well managed, and set up for success. I’m a sitter with formal training in dog behavior, and I’m currently continuing my education through an accredited, science based training program. My approach goes beyond basic pet sitting, I focus on structure, clear boundaries, and reading behavior to prevent issues before they start. I specialize in dogs that need structure and guidance, whether that’s anxious dogs, easily overstimulated dogs, or dogs adjusting to a new environment. My focus is helping dogs stay calm, regulated, and comfortable, not just physically tired. Every dog is handled intentionally and with clear structure, not as part of a chaotic group setting. Pet care is my full-time work, so your dog’s routine becomes part of my routine. Meals, walks, rest, enrichment, and any training cues you already use are followed as consistently as possible. I keep things structured and predictable so dogs, especially anxious, reactive, or easily overstimulated ones, can settle in and feel secure. My home is structured, supervised, and calm, not a chaotic group setup or a free for all. Dogs are introduced thoughtfully, given clear boundaries, and supported with a predictable routine so they feel safe and secure. I tailor the environment to each dog, including decompression time, quiet space, and supervised social time only when appropriate. My focus is always on behavior, safety, and preventing overstimulation or unsafe situations. My approach is best suited for dogs who can follow structure and benefit from a calm, well-managed environment. I am not a good fit for dogs that rely on constant high energy group play or a completely unstructured routine.

About: I bond with pets quickly-they sense my fondness for them and I pay attention to the little things, so I sense what they need to be happy. I am working part-time, so I fortunately get to make my own schedule! I can be flexible with what your specific pet needs are. I always go the extra mile because I enjoy animals so much. We have 2.5 acres of land mostly yard and partially woods with walking trails all over. We have a super friendly and playful 2.5 year old neutered Frenchton named Gus who is 40 pounds and enjoys any and all company! We got our puppy Louie in April 2023. He is an adorable almost 1 year old French Bulldog. Our 2 cats are pretty shy of other humans and pets outside of their family-but they love a good petting and join us on walks! We also have chickens for eggs-but they are outside and safely caged. We spend as much time as possible outside enjoying nature and our pets happily join us!

About: I’ve had dogs since I can remember! Currently an owner of a frenchie and yellow lab! Always been a dog lover and would love to spend time with your pups too! I’m currently in part time online schooling for my masters in social work so scheduling is not an issue for me! Have a pretty available schedule during the week! I am looking to do dog walks and many play dates! Always open to bringing my friendly frenchie doggo along for extra fun if allowed!

“Dilly had a great time and came home happy and tired!”

About: Our family loves our pets, and I'll love yours too while you are away. My husband and I adopted our first black Lab in 2001, when she was eight years old. She was our first baby. Since that time, in addition to raising our human family, we have added many furry, finned, and feathered members to our home. While my ten-year-old Havanese is my "Best Boy;" I am "House Mom" to the other pets in our family. I love the time in the day I spend with my pets and look forward to spreading that love to other animals as I have more free time now that my kids are growing up. Having my own pets, I know it is hard to leave town. It's essential to find someone who is responsible, thoughtful, honest, and gentle to watch over them. I look forward to meeting with you and your pets to help alleviate your concerns. I am a stay-at-home parent, to older children, so my schedule is very flexible. I look forward to working with you to create a schedule that supports everyone! I believe in the Golden Rule. I will care for your pet(s) just as I would expect someone to care for mine. Before scheduling our first pet sitting appointment, I would like to meet with you and your pet in order to understand your pets' schedules and needs. If I am visiting your pets at your home, is there anything small I can help you with? Maybe you want your trash bins brought in, or your mail picked up?

About: I have always had a deep love and respect for animals, particularly our furry companions. Growing up, I cared for a variety of pets, which helped shape my lifelong passion for animal care. Currently, I work as a Kennel Technician at a pet daycare, where I care for both dogs and cats on a daily basis. I am also certified in pet first aid and CPR, ensuring I am prepared to respond to emergency situations with confidence and care. I am currently employed at a doggie daycare, with a rotating weekly schedule. My shifts typically fall between either 7:00 AM–3:30 PM or 12:00 PM–7:30 PM. Please feel free to reach out in advance, and I’ll be happy to provide my availability! I share my home with one dog and three cats, and since I live in an apartment without a fenced yard, I take my dog on multiple leashed walks each day. If your dog were to stay with us, they would enjoy regular walks in our grassy areas, as well as access to nearby walking trails just a short distance away. When caring for pets in their own home, I strongly believe in the importance of routines and consistency. I always follow specific instructions to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

Two level condominium so stairs are required unless smaller and I can pick up to go out, able to give medications, baths, nails and lots and lots of love.

“Laura couldn't have been sweeter and more attentive to our little Havanese, Cleo. Shy as she is, she clearly picked up on Laura's very gentle nature and warmed right up to her. We live in NYC but had Cleo stay with her while my daughter and I were in the area to spend some time on Candlewood Lake. I only wished we lived closer so we could take advantage of having Laura watch Cleo more often!”

We spend our days at the beach, park, eating treats, playing tug of war, speaking the doggy language, and cuddling of course! I have grown up around pets my entire life and could not imagine a life without them. I will follow your daily routine the closest I can and apply the discipline you enforce with your dog on a daily basis. I will make sure the experience your dog has is fun, targeted to their specific needs, and give your dog the love and affection you would to make them as comfortable as possible. My goal is to make your dog feel loved and make sure they are happy the entire time they spend with me. I love all dogs, big or small, and enjoy creating relationships with them.

I have grown up around pets and have had both of my dogs since they were puppies. They have been up and down the east coast with me during every trip home, move, etc. They are my best friends. Your best friend will be treated exactly how I would want someone to treat mine if I was away!
