About: I've been around dogs my whole life and truly love caring for them. I've worked with puppies before, taking them on walks and reinforcing the basic training their families were already working on to help build a strong foundation. I'm patient, dependable, and happy to follow your pet's routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care while you're away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone keep them company, I'm committed to making them feel safe and loved. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring and reliable hands. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I have a very flexible schedule throughout the summer. I'm available for drop-in visits and walks during the day, as well as early mornings and late evenings to accommodate your pet's routine. While I'm not able to provide overnight stays because I have a cat of my own at home, I'm happy to work with you to find times that best fit your pet's needs. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or an evening visit, I'm committed to providing reliable, consistent care. When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by sticking to their normal routine. I follow owners instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and any special care your pet requires. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment so they stay happy while their family is away. Although I'm not currently offering pet care in my own home because I have a cat, Bear, I treat every client's home with the same respect and care that I would my own. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving you peace of mind that your pet is in good hands.

About: My first job was pet sitting and dog walking, and I've loved caring for animals ever since! As a Connecticut local, I know many great walking trails and currently walk about 4 miles a day, so your pup will get plenty of exercise and adventure. I'm also a proud cat parent to two cats, one of whom I adopted after volunteering at an animal shelter for three years during college. I'd love to give your pets the same care and attention I give my own! I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, personalized care. I naturally build pet care into my daily routine—I love spending my evenings going for walks and relaxing with my cat, and I always make time for play, exercise, and one-on-one attention. Whether your pet needs an active adventure or a calm companion, I'm happy to adapt to their routine and make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. Creating a safe, comfortable, and trusting environment for every pet is my top priority. I take the time to understand each pet's unique personality and social cues so I can approach them in a way that helps them feel safe and at ease. I never rush introductions—instead, I let pets warm up at their own pace and learn what makes them happiest, whether that's playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply having calm companionship. In my home, I make safety a priority by ensuring all of my plants are pet-safe and that there are no hazards or unsafe items within reach. I also have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time. As a pet owner myself and a former shelter volunteer, I understand the importance of providing a secure, enriching environment where pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved.

She is about 2 years old and loves all dogs. I would love to bring her along with me to go on walks etc at your approval. I am currently a nanny part time and a part time student at SCSU. I would have plenty of time to care for your furry friend on the weekends. I care for your pets in your home and will follow any directions for caring for your furry friend.

About: Since childhood, dogs have been an integral part of my life, starting with two Pomeranians, followed by an energetic Shiba Inu named Akira, and a loving lab mix German Shepherd named Stella. Over the years, I've gained extensive experience caring for these pets—whether through cuddling, playing, feeding, walks, or adventures. I've also spent time teaching them tricks and handling their grooming needs. Earlier this year, I began offering overnight and day sitting services, along with walks, for friends on Rover, and later extended my services to family and other referrals. I focus on building strong bonds and trust with the animals I care for, tailoring our time together to ensure it's both enjoyable and enriching. I've worked with dogs ranging from 4-month-old puppies to older dogs aged 13-14, and have experience with both a kitten and an adult cat. My approach is patient, compassionate, and dedicated to meeting the unique needs of every animal I care for. I'm a makeup artist who works both on location and from home. With a flexible schedule, I currently have plenty of free time to spend with your dog! **Dog Walking**: I tailor each walk to the dog’s individual energy level, adjusting the pace and distance to ensure they get the right amount of exercise. I also provide opportunities for exploration while keeping safety in mind, and I’m attentive to any health considerations or special preferences they may have. **Overnight Sitting**: When staying in a client’s home, I prioritize the pet’s comfort and security by sticking to their regular routine as much as possible. This includes consistent feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and providing companionship to ease any anxiety, particularly during the night. In everything I do, my primary goal is to build trust with each pet, providing them with a safe, loving environment where they feel cared for and valued—whether I’m working in my own home or in a client’s.

“We love having Darcy visit our cat, Happy, when we need to be away for a few days. She is dependable and reliable and makes sure to spend time with her. She makes Happy…happy!”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was born with my first Golden Retriever “Missy”. My family has had a wide variety of animals from dogs and cats, to hamsters and bunnies, all the way to horses. I am often called on by my fiends to pet sit as I am known as the friend with a surplus of pets. I currently have a small dog named Munchie with many different health problems such as anxiety and epilepsy which gives me experience in caring for dogs with specific needs. I also currently have a large dog who is a Shepard, Boxer mix named Leo who gives me experience in caring for large dogs and their active and rambunctious needs. Along with my two dogs I have four cats who give me experience in the joy of caring for cats. As a pet owner I know the struggle of finding a good and trustworthy pet sitter. That is why I want to be able to be that pet sitter that will allow you to enjoy your vacation or go to work with the peace of mind knowing your pet is being taken care of. I am currently a student at Marist College in Poughkeepsie. Due to my class schedule I have blocks of time in which I am not in class or doing homework that I would love to be able to fill with hanging out with dogs:) Due to the fact that I am a college student I do not have the home environment to be able to care for your dog at my house. But I will give them the love and attention they need during my drop-in visits with lots of pets, playtime, walks and treats!

“Amazing responses! Booked super last minute and able to accommodate my work schedule! Will absolutely book again!”

I am available on weekends but also willing to make arrangements if needed for longer periods. Simply reach out and advise me of your needs. I will try my best to accommodate. Pups are a part of our family so their happiness and safety are mist important to me. Finding the best and safest way to accommodate our fur babies is paramount and varies from owner to owner.
