Dog Walkers in Guilford Center, CT

About: *MEET AND GREET REQUIRED PRIOR TO BOOKING* I have had 3 cats and 4 dogs, and I understand that every animal has its own personality and special needs. My 7 year old loves all dogs and all she wants to do is babysit dogs. Both of my kids are very responsible and caring. They love taking dogs for walks, playing with them, snuggling with them, feeding them, even picking up their poop! Please note that a meet and greet at our home with us adults and our 2 kids is REQUIRED prior to booking. This is for everyone’s comfort and safety. Thank you! I am offering full-time or part-time doggy daycare Monday-Friday. Weekends are for my human family, so at this time, I am not offering boarding. I (Sarah) am primarily responsible for the care of your animals. My husband (Steve) and my 2 daughters will help after school/work. We follow the pet owner’s care instructions, and make sure your animals are safe and happy. A meet and greet with all 4 of us at our home is REQUIRED prior to booking.

About: I will take care of your best friend with the same love I show my sweet Labrador’s. I will show patience and love with each of your dogs walks and make sure that they get all their business done, plenty of exercise and time for sniffing all the things as well. If I sit over night you will have to specify not to let them on the bed bc I will want to snuggle and make them feel at ease while you are gone. I will send pictures of your pet playing, relaxing and keep you up to date on if he/she used the bathroom and make you feel comfortable while away from your pet because I know it’s not always easy. I will be your best friends, friend.

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was a kid, having grown up with two dogs and being part of their care from puppyhood through old age. I've looked after both dogs and cats for neighbors and families to whom I've provided childcare, and for the past year, I’ve regularly walked dogs housed at a county animal shelter. This has been such a rewarding activity and has increased my comfort in interacting with animals with a variety of temperaments. I'm an active person, so I’d love to get outdoors and moving as long as your pup is up for it! If necessary, I can bathe your pet and administer oral medications; if instructed may also be comfortable with injectables. I’m so excited to meet a new furry friend! I’m beginning medical school in the fall and am looking to establish some house/pet sitting relationships while my schedule is super flexible this summer! I love taking long walks and would love company from your pup, but I’m also happy to stop by and hang out with your pet in your home if that’s preferred. I’m available to stay overnight in your home if you’re traveling and need longer term help, too. I will be pet sitting in your home and want to fit into your pet's daily life as seamlessly as possible, so I'm happy to do whatever makes them happy! I'm an active person so whether your pet is high or low energy, I can cater to their needs.
