House Sitting in Haddam

“Sarah, as usual, was amazing with the pets and took great care of them while staying at our home. It gives us so much peace of mind to have her there and makes the time spent away enjoyable and anxiety free.”

“Isabel was so great and kind to our two pups! She sent photo and message updates about how they were doing throughout her stay. She was also incredibly helpful with an issue in our home that had nothing to do with our dogs. Highly recommend her for your pet care needs!”

“Campbell grew up taking care of animals of all types. In the spirit of full transparency - I’m her mom. But you can ask anyone who knows her! Dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies! She loves them all! And she is reliable, responsible, and will always put your pets’ care first. She’s very good with our dog who is a super finicky eater. Very patient and caring. She won’t let you or your fur babies down!”

“Lauren was amazing! She housed my Aussie for 4 days and was so great with keeping me update from day to day. My pup also has A LOT of energy and Lauren walked/ played with her everyday! Lauren was super responsive and great with my last minute changes. I would definitely recommend having Lauren watch your fur baby!”

“Stephen took amazing care of my dogs and my home while I was away. He provided lots pictures and updates of my dogs while I was gone. I would highly recommend Stephen to anyone who needs a reliable pet sitter.”

“Roger looked after my pup for three weeks while i was out of town for the holidays. He sent regular updates and my pup was well taken care of. Will definitely be re-booking. Thank you, Roger!”

“Priya has taken care of our cat when we've been out of town and done dog walking for us. We're always so happy when we're able to get her - she's very dependable and our pets absolutely love her. In addition, we appreciate how neat she is - always cleans the dogs paws when she walks them and when she's been cat sitting the house is always spotless when we come home. Would definitely recommend!”

“Susan is amazing! She came to our house to meet the animals twice before her stay and a 3rd time before we left just to ensure the animals knew her. She is thorough and loving. She took care of our two house puppies, two cats, 3 goats and four chickens. She kept us updated with how the animals were doing and sent pictures. We have security cameras around the house and could see she spend ample time walking the dogs and letting them play. We are so thankful to have someone like Susan to help with the animals while we were gone. We don’t have family in CT, so she is the closest we have to to that! We appreciate you!”

“We had the most wonderful experience with Jaiden! Leaving our two Frenchies in someone else’s care is always a bit nerve-wracking, but from the moment we met Jaiden, we knew they were in good hands. Not only did she provide excellent care for our pups, but she also went above and beyond to make sure they felt comfortable and loved while we were away. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind. Our dogs were happy and relaxed when we returned, which is the best testament to Jaiden’s exceptional care. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter. Thank you, Jaiden, for taking such great care of our babies.”

“Morgan was a great sitter and took amazing care of my 18 month old golden retriever. She was on time, sent great daily updates, and left my home in great condition. Most importantly Judy had a great time with her. I will for sure look to book Morgan again to take care of Judy.”

“Diane recently watched our very active 90 lb. German Shepherd and our home while we were away for 8 nights in August. Diane was a good communicator as we received daily updates and photos on her activities with our dog which included hikes to local state parks and beaches. She took good care of our dog, Bruno, and went above and beyond expectations. We would definitely use her services again.”

“Greta did well beyond my expectations. My dog is very active and attention seeking. It's a lot sometimes but Greta handled my dog "Hyper" with ease in grace. She sent pictures of them playing and regular updates. I returned to my house just as I left it.”

“Tess looked after my mature, sweet 16 year old cat recently. She did a wonderful job and sent pics of our cat as well. She did a great job and I am happy to recommend her!”

“Christine was just wonderful. She took great care of our three dogs and we felt like we were in great hands when we went on vacation . She is a great communicator and sent us pictures at least twice every day. I highly recommend using Christine. We definitely will. Thanks so much, u r the best!!!”

“Erik has been a full-time employee at What A Ruff Life for over a year. He started out as an attendant and was quickly promoted to Manager. Erik is highly reliable and goes the extra mile with the dogs, for our clients, for his co-workers and the owners. He is a true dog lover! Tony”

“Andrea was very responsible and had great communication throughout the stay. She made us feel comfortable during the stay by sending us pictures of our two dogs and keeping us updated as needed. We would not hesitate to use Andrea again!”

About: I grew up taking care of animals including dogs, I had a black lab growing up till he passed of old age and after we got more dogs. I currently have 3 large dogs I love and adore. When my mom and aunt worked at a dog kennel I would go and help them with the feeding, cleaning, walking and playtime. I worked with all breeds and sizes of dogs and am comfortable with all dogs. My aunt used to train dogs and I learned quite a few things from her when it comes to training dogs and will teach you tips if needed and or wanted. I am currently working full time, but I have plenty of time on the weekends to care for your furr babies day or night! On the weekdays I am available after 4:30pm for walks/ feedings. I care for your pets as if they were mine, they will have lots of love, attention. If your dog makes a mess in your home I will make sure to clean it and leave the house just as you left it.

“Sarah C, a caring, responsible person, takes all her endeavors seriously. She is an animal lover, and I’ve seen her own pets thrive. She maintains excellent customer service in her crafts business, where I’ve happily purchased many items. Sarah C will be an excellent addition to your team!”

“Blake was great with our dogs! He took care of a few little house tasks as well which was helpful while we were gone but most importantly I knew my dogs were well loved and cared for. We got daily videos and regular updates. We were very pleased! Thank you Blake!!”

“Kaelyn was a fantastic dog sitter for my two dogs Ellie and Piper! Her communication while she was watching them was wonderful, I was confident my pups were being well taken care of the entire time I was away. She sent pictures and updates on when she was going to be in and out of the house and left the house in great condition! I would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again!”
