1. Francis E.

“it was our pleasure to have Francis watch our pups! She was communicative, kind, and responsible in all dog watching duties! Look forward to having her again!”


2. Ashley P.

“Ashley helped me out on relatively short notice with my new rescue when I had to go away for a night. She kept a watchful eye on him and made sure not to keep him from starting any of his naughty habits. She sent lots of pics throughout the night and made me feel better about leaving my guy for a night.”


3. Reilynn G.
“Reilynn has been our house/dog sitter for years and I can't imagine life without her. She is punctual, trustworthy, hard working, and a great communicator. Reilynn is always there for our family, even on short notice. The piece of mind she gives us is priceless. The compassion she shows our two pups and 1 kitty cat is wonderful and we trust her wholehearted. We cannot recommend Reilynn's services enough- she is the real deal!”


4. Alexis K.

“Alexis made herself available at the last minute and was great with my senior dogs. I would definitely hire her again.”


5. kathryn s.
“I have worked with Kathryn for 2 years and have built a relationship with her outside of work as well. Kathryn has always had a passion for animals and took very good care of her own cat, I remember being at work and she would check in on her cat through the camera she set up for her. She would also go back to her house in Norwich from Foxwoods during her lunch break to check in on her cat. Kathryn currently works for All Bright Canines and is with animals on a daily base. She is in college as well online, very well rounded. I trust Kathryn to take care of my animals and she is going to be taking care of my two dogs when I go away on vacation!”

“Emily has dogsat for me a few times now. She’s friendly, responsive, and seems patient with my reactive and anxious shelter dog. Thanks, Emily! :)”


7. Sophia D.
“Sophia has always been loving, caring and affectionate with my pup Abby. She "babysat" for Abby overnight when she was just a few months old I felt confident she would be loved and cared for while she was with Sophia. Sophia is not just a great dog sitter she is an awesome young lady.”


8. Emily M.

“Emily was AWESOME. Very communicative upfront and during her stay watching Koby. I came back from vacation to a happy dog and a perfect house. Will 100% rebook the next time I vacation.”


9. Olivia Y.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is trying to be every dogs best friend. I've taken care puppies to senior dogs. (Bathing, Feeding, Walking). I am currently available (Monday-Sunday). There is no time limit meaning I can watch the dogs early morning hours, afternoon, evening and even over night! I care for pets in my clients home by respecting the owners wishes. For example I had a client request their dog stay downstairs so the dog stayed downstairs. Also following their regular schedule.


10. Olivia J.

“Olivia did an amazing job taking care of our 3 dogs!! Highly recommend and will definitely be using her in the future! :)”


11. Nicholas J.

“Nicholas was the best!!! He checked in couple times a day with photos over a very long and hot weekend. It was obvious from the pictures that our dog was very happy. We felt that she and home were in great hands. Thanks again Nicholas!”


12. Stephanie D.
About: Fun, interactive, engaging and safe place for your pets. Experience with all size dogs - happy to accept dogs with medical concerns and special diets. Currently work from home with a flexible schedule which allows for extra time to look after pets, go for walks, keep toileting routines etc. Children and other adult in the home support playtime and engagement with the pets while in our care. Time to care for pets in my home or help with dog walking and check-ins at other homes. Attentive to needs and routine as defined by each pet owner. Dogs allowed on furniture and will be kept busy. Walks, playtime, and naps are a must! We like to have fun and give the same love and attention you would if you were able to be with your pet.


13. Eve E.

“After having some bad luck with reliable/trustworthy petsitters in the past, I was having anxiety about my upcoming vacation and who I could trust my pets with. Eve was/is dependable, understanding, communicative and all of the other traits I was hoping to find in a sitter. She kept me in the loop and sent me pictures of my happy fur babies while I was out of the country. Eve's the best!!!”


14. Eleanor P.

“Eleanor was great. She was flexible and gave a good amount of updates. Not too many, not too few and included pics which is always nice. We would definitely hire her again.”


15. June R.
“June has watched my dog several times, either a daily or weekly timeframe. She loves the dogs as if each one was her own. It is very difficult to find someone you trust with your fur baby. So nice to have her so I can feel comfortable when traveling in knowing that he is very well taken care of and safe.”


16. Alina G.
“She is absolutely wonderful with all of our pets! So kind gentle and attentive! Great person and great caregiver! I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my pets’”

18. Kathryn S.
“Kat Is a wonderful pet caregiver, sticks to training regiments, provides loving care, and is very patient. I would recommend her time and time again.”


19. Kathleen L.
“Kathy takes amazing care of my cats when I’m away. After all the feeding and clean up duties, she makes sure to play with them and send me videos and updates. She is organized, clean, responsible and fun. She also takes fantastic care of my mother’s two very needy dogs when she travels. I can’t recommend her enough. She is professional, kindhearted, down to earth and is really the only person I feel safe leaving my pets with.”


20. Victoria A.

“Tori was great with our two dogs! She was communicative (sent videos and pics) to let me know how they were doing and super attentive to their individual needs. I think they really enjoyed having her stay with them!”
