“Annmarie was incredibly nice and communicative while she took care of my cats. This was so appreciated while I was out of state! I felt relieved to know my pets were being so well cared for.”

“Isabelle is so sweet and she was great with our boy Boone! We didnt have enough time for her to meet Boone prior to booking so our boy was nervous when she first got there, but she made sure to give him his space and time to warm up to her. It paid off because they spent the evening on the couch together 😊 She followed the schedule we provided and she sent photo and picture updates throughout their time together, which was great. Boone made a new friend so we’ll be sure to book Isabelle again!”

“Sarah did a great job caring for our two cats! She was responsive to texts and requests and we loved seeing the pictures of them while we were away. Sarah was also great with giving one of our cats his medicine. We would hire her again!”

About: I have been called Dr. Dolittle my entire life. I have a knack for connecting with animals of all kinds. My very first job was working at a local farm with all different types of animals like horses, goats, pigs, chickens, ducks, etc. It was one of my favorite jobs, I got lucky! I also worked at a dog boarding facility which gave me experience working with multiple dogs at once. I always give animals the space to have their specific personality and the respect they deserve, as I would treat a human. Animals are often misunderstood, I’ve always tried to meet them where they stand. If there is one thing I am confident in, it’s making an animal feel safe and comfortable. And they do the same for me :) I would love to meet your faithful friend and see if they find me worthy of a tail wag or a belly pet! I currently work a very flexible part-time job. I have a lot of availability and can be very flexible. Working with animals is more than a job to me, I very much enjoy it. I will find ways to work with you and your pets personal needs. I love to schedule a meet-up before providing pet care. This is just to see that we are all on the same page and everyone feels it's a good fit. I do not offer home services. I will travel to your home so your pet can be where they are most comfortable. I work around you and your pets comfort. As a pet owner myself, I understand it can be hard to leave your companions in someone else’s care. I want to do what it takes to make you feel 100% safe and at ease when leaving your furbabies in my care.

“So happy to have connected with Rachel. Could tell immediately that my pups would be in great hands with her- and that is very important to me. Thanks Rachel!”

About: I have 3 dogs of my own (2 medium dogs and one small) and I have owned pets for most of my life. I also have experience in helping train my sisters service dog. I also have a senior dog and a puppy that I am used to caring for. My schedule is completely flexible and I am able to work around the needs of your pups. I am also able to board your pets for a week if needed! I have a huge open backyard for your dogs to play around. I also have 2 dogs of my own at home who like to play. If needed, I can also crate your dog as well.

About: I’ve taken care of people’s pets over the past 15 years happily and willingly. Building a connection with them so they feel safe while you are away is a priority! I also work with kids, so I spend my time taking care of others loved ones every single day! I am currently off of work for the summer. I am doing very part time work during the week- so before or after that is when I am available! I am also open weekends I am no stranger to getting to know the ins and outs of others routines, habits, and schedules. I will happily follow along with what works best for you and your pets

“Lindsey is the best with our pup! Always sends great updates and gives our dog the care and exercise she loves! Will continue to recommend and rebook.”

About: I’ve grown up with animals of all kinds from as early as I can remember. Being the oldest of my siblings I was the first to have to take on the pet care chores, and this included both our dogs and our cats, and the other types of animals we had in our household. I have pet care experience with dogs and cats, as well as other pets too. When I moved out on my own with my previous partner (2012-2017) we had adopted three rescued cats, and I was the main administer of the diabetic cat’s insulin and late IV fluid treatments. My ex kept our cats in the split, but in 2018 I adopted my first dog completely on my own. She’s a rescue pit bull mix and now, with my current husband, she is joined by another rescued pit bull mix and a rescued cat. Last year we also adopted a red ear slider turtle off the street in Philadelphia and he now enjoys his aquatic terrarium with his guppy and pleco friends. In 2023 I briefly worked for a dog walking company in Ridgefield and was bit by one of the client’s dogs, unprovoked, and because of that I left the service after being blamed for the outburst and attack (despite telling the owners and the employer that the dog was getting increasingly aggressive with me and I wasn’t comfortable walking him anymore). It was the only time I had ever had an animal turn on me like that and it made me rethink working for a service where I wasn’t listened to or given proper protection. My husband and I have been Rover clients since we moved to Connecticut in 2023 and I am very happy to say we have never had a negative experience, which is why I have decided to lend my services to other pets and families in the area that are in need of an experienced pet caretaker. I am a professional actor so I have days that are marked off for auditions and work or rehearsals, however it is not a consistent time or place. I work throughout the Northeast, NYC, and the Mid Atlantic currently with my acting opportunities, but I am also open to short term travel as well. Because of that, my availability is very open some weeks and not as much on others, depending on what projects I am currently involved in and what the scheduling is like. I would love to spend more time your pets in my downtime and give them the attention they require, since mine are pretty saturated in it regularly. I have two dogs, which are extremely friendly and love other dogs, people, and cats! Our cat is very aloof so they wouldn’t be seen much in cases where pet sitting at my home is needed. Our yard is not fenced in but I am very accustomed to taking them out for walks, or having them leashed under my supervision in our yard. Because I live in Newtown, there are plenty of places to get some quality walks in, and we are also not far from open public dog parks either if that suits your furry friend! I also have my own car which I am more than comfortable transporting your pet in or coming to you for check ins or walks. Our dogs are up to date on vaccines so that is not a worry either, and I am diligent in making sure everyone has a great time when their friends (and our human friends) are over too!

“Keely was great with our pups. Calm and patient and understands not every dog is the same. Was great at communicating and will be booking her again. Thank’s for everything Keely and best of luck!”

“Tara is fantastic! She is so sweet and took great care of our cat. She also sent us pictures while we were away for our peace of mind. Our cat is pretty skittish and he warmed up to her so quickly! Definitely recommend her :)”

Taylor C.

“Anaiyah is a wonderful sitter! She was very attentive with my cat and made sure he was eating and drinking. She sent pictures of my cat everyday and made me feel confident that my cat was taken well care of. I will be booking Anaiyah again!”

“Emily was fantastic! She took great care of my cat when I had to take a trip on short notice. She was responsive, communicative, and a pleasure to work with. I will definitely use her again! Thank you Emily!”

About: Hi! I’m Lilli, and I worked in dog grooming for 4 years where I gained hands on experience working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve also had pets my whole life, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. Along with grooming, I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for years for friends, family, and local clients. I’m very patient, reliable, and love making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away 🐾 I currently work part time, which gives me a pretty flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week and on weekends. Because of this, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to walks, drop-ins, pet sitting, feeding schedules, playtime, and overnight care when needed. I try to be as accommodating and reliable as possible, and I always make sure pets get the attention, exercise, comfort, and care they need while their owners are away. I’m also used to working with different breeds, sizes, energy levels, and personalities from my years working in dog grooming and pet care. 🐾 I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their normal environment and routine. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, medications if needed, and giving pets lots of attention and companionship while their owners are away. 🐾

About: I’ve had 2-3 dogs in my house since I was in middle school. Since high school, I began dog, cat, and baby sitting for my neighbor on a regular basis and even continued while on breaks from college and after graduation. For the past 5 years, I was the primary dog, cat, and house sitter for a lovely family. My senior year of college I fostered a dog, which my family and I then went on to adopt. I have experience with dogs and cats of various breeds, sizes, and ages. After helping a variety of dogs & cats in NYC, I have relocated to Connecticut, and I’m looking to help out any people and pets in my area! I currently work a hybrid schedule and am onsite on Tues-Thurs. My work allows me to take calls on walks and have the ability to take animals out for walks as needed! We currently live in a condo with easy outdoor access. I do not have any pets. I am comfortable with crate training, but my home is also flexible to let your pet(s) roam if that is preferred!

About: I am an experienced animal caregiver, for over 25 years! I have experience with, puppies, all size, all type of dog breeds, kittens, cats, birds, sugar gliders, lizards, ferrets, etc. I have boarded animals in the past and taken extra care of them while owners are away. I am compassionate, patient, and am an animal lover at heart. I'm 44, a vintage lover and vegan. I am a dog owner myself and have had my own dog cared for during vacations. I have a 13 year old baby chihuahua (she will always be my baby). I also had a 100lb+ pup up until a couple years ago. I have grown up around cats since I was 14 as well, my partner I live with has a 3 year old cat that I care for as well. I will take care of your dog/cat like I would want mine to be taken care of. Your pup will enjoy my company as I will try to entertain your dog and send you updates as much as possible while you are away so that you can relax knowing your baby is in good hands. I currently make my own schedule and I do have obligations but I can be super flexible and for the most part I can work from anywhere. I currently am not offering to pet sit in my own home as there is not enough room. But I’m happy to sit at yours.

“Meghan did an amazing job checking in on our cat while we were away! She was professional, kept our house clean, and most importantly, our cat was happy and comfortable. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pet was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Ian did a wonderful job with my dogs. He was so calm and caring with them, they took to him immediately. He also gave a timely & thorough report of his visit with them. Thanks Ian!!”

About: I have experience with all dogs sizes, especially large breeds. I watched my childhood dogs go from puppies to seniors. From this, I’m able to administer medicine. I currently work from home remotely, so it is very flexible for me. With my current houses, I am able to bring my laptop and work there to allow no interruptions into your pet’s daily routine I care for your pets as if they were my own. When I’m in your home, I tried to make it as if I was never there to allow you to feel fully relaxed up upon coming home from your time away.
