About: I grew up around cats and dogs within my own home, other family members houses, & friends. We had a cat of our own until last year when we moved out of CT for a short time and had to sadly re-home him. He’s missed very much! I’ve also house sat pets and walked friends dogs as well. I work part time so I have a lot free time on my hands which makes me very flexible at all hours and time during the week! I care for pets as if they are my own. With all the love and fun that they can take whether they are in my home or I am in theirs!

11. Kristen Q.
About: I have extensive experience pet sitting for dogs (all ages), cats, rabbits, chickens and other birds, small mammals, and farm animals, including animals with special medical needs. I also have experiencw with exotic pets. I am certified in Pet First Aid and CPR. I have been a volunteer for both an animal shelter and a local animal rescue league chapter, as well as at many events that benefit animals, and have had pets of my own since childhood. I currently live with a wonderful, sweet, sassy 7 year old female Corgi. I owned 2 wonderful Siberian Huskies who lived to be seniors, and in the course, required regular medications, special diet, physical therapy exercises, assisted walking, and wound cleaning, so I am very familiar with dealing with health issues, and am able to recognize when an animal is in any distress. As I believe emotional well-being is just as important as physical, I will always spend time with your pet, or exercise him/her with his/her favorite toy or game. If your pet is in training, I would be happy to reinforce what he/she is learning. Caring for animals is not just what I do, it's who I am! I look forward to hearing from you! Please feel free to check out my Facebook page under Pawsibilities Pet Services for reviews! Pet sitting is my full time job, so I am basically at your disposal when it comes to your pets! You will find me very flexible! I am in a pet friendly community with ample safe places to walk. If you prefer your pet crated while I am not present I am happy to do so. I will try to keep a routine, as pets thrive on that.
12. Tiffany Y.
“Tiffany has been a God sent. She takes care of my baby with so much love and care. My baby doesn’t even want to leave her to go back home. I highly recommend Tiffany as a dog walker and especially a dog sitter.”
13. Crystal H.
“Crystal did a great job walking our dog Callie. She was easy to get in touch with and was responsive to all messages. Callie can be unsure about new people but as soon as Crystal picked up her leash she was happy and ready to go! Would definitely recommend Crystal!”
14. Alexis D.
“Alexis is awesome! She communicates really fast about everything and goes above and beyond! She comes whenever we need her, is flexible, and so great with out pup. I highly recommend her, we use her every week!”
15. Rebecca S.
About: I have been a dog enthusiast for as long as I can remember. In my early twenties I found myself dog sitting often, and began volunteering at the Connecticut Humane Society as a dog walker and trainer. My passion for animals and nature fuels my desire to pet sit and dog walk full time. I am a student whose primary income is in dog walking and pet sitting. This means I am committed to giving your pet the attention and care they deserve! I have a family of my own but their routine is flexible. I am comfortable working in other peoples' homes. I love to spend time with animals in their natural environment, and find myself tidying when I'm there. I will often leave your home cleaner than I found it! It's in my nature to take care of the spaces I inhabit, and I do so with absolute respect. I take great care to protect the privacy of my clients while I nurture their pets and living space.
16. Olivia F.
“Olivia was great with Skyy. She gave detailed updates and took tons of cute pictures for me during their walk. She was very flexible!”
17. Mackenzie V.
“Mackenzie is great with pets. I have 4 cats and she loves to spend time and play with them. She is very careful with them and makes sure all their needs are met. She grew up with a husky and I've always known her to be best friends with her dog. Mackenzie is a very caring person and hates to let people down so I know she is the right person to trust. If you ever need a committed, reliable, and trustworthy petsitter then I highly recommend you choose Mackenzie.”

20. Shannon L.
“The only person I trust with our 150lb mini pig who can be a terror! Hamilton is about 7 years old and while very aggressive with new people, he gravitates towards Shannon. I trust her not only with the best and highest care for my 4 legged family member, but also with the care of our home, our most vulnerable place. She has been so respectful, loving, attentive, and quick to respond. I know that I can rely on her when we are away or need a little extra help. There isn't a thing she can't do! No other soul would I want watching my mini pig for 5 days straight... usually Hamilton gets upset with us for leaving for periods of time, but ever since Shannon started watching him he's left the attitude behind. She's magical”
