Dog Sitting in Hyde Park

About: With over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I offer a calm, comforting presence that helps pets feel safe and at ease. I treat every animal with the same steady care and gentle attention I give my own—because that’s what they deserve. Our companions bring so much to our lives, and you can feel at ease knowing yours will be cared for with patience, consistency, and genuine love while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my day because I work remotely and set my own schedule. I have the flexibility to adapt to your pet’s routine—whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. Whatever their needs are, I’ll make sure they’re met with care and consistency. I focus on creating a calm, consistent environment where every animal feels safe and comfortable. I always start with the essentials: food, water, litter, treats, or any medication per instruction. From there, I follow their lead—some want playtime or brushing, others prefer quiet company. Before I leave, I always do a final check and make sure everything is clean and in order, so both your pet and the space are well cared for.

“Excellent service and response time! Thank you for everything!”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life - whether they are my own or someone else's. Dogs always gravitated toward my dad (a definite whisperer) and they are the same way with me. Your dog will be treated like my own - they will come back tired and happy. I will ensure they are always in situations in which they are safe and comfortable. I will go above and beyond to make sure that your dog's experience is a great one! I am a full time teacher, but a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I am available all day during the summer for drop-ins and long walks. During the school year, I can drop-by and do walks before 8 am and after 3pm. Longer visits and walks will be offered in the afternoons and evenings during the school year. Your dog will be given plenty of well deserved attention. They will get many pats and scratches (plenty of love), lots of playtime, will stay well hydrated, and will be plenty tired from their long walk/hike.

About: For nearly my entire life I have taken care of my two dogs, Eddie and Shorty. Between raising them as puppies and taking care of Shorty in his later years, I have had the pleasure in taking care of my dogs. Over the years I have helped sit and take care of guinea pigs, dogs, cats, and many other pets! No matter the animal, I treat them with love just as if they were my own. I can walk or watch your pets any weekday! As for overnight sitting, the same applies. I work part time in politics so I should almost always be able to fill your requests. I can provide care to your pets in your home when needed! If given with instructions on how to take care of your pets, I can accommodate to all of you and your pets needs.

“Grace was very helpful with two drop-in-visits for two pups on a day I was attending a family event. Thank you”

“Our pup loved spending time with Maggie while we were away for a wedding! She was extremely knowledgeable about dogs and went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of! She also spent time with our cat who normally gets separation anxiety when we're away. We and our pets hope that Maggie will be available to help again in the future!”

About: I am a college student that grew up with two dogs, two cats, a rabbit, and a tortoise. I now only have one cat and one dog. I have lots of space for more animals in my life. I would love to walk dogs, and do day visits with dogs or cats. I am a firm believer that dogs and cats get lonely too, and need attention and care when we are away at work. Rather than a professional dog walker with multiple dogs at once, I want to give individual attention to each pet. I am also able to host dogs at my house, and have a separate room for my cats if needed. I am taking summer classes two nights a week but have a very flexible schedule. * My classes start August 25, I am only accepting bookings until then. * I am currently a student. This summer I only have one class twice a week at night, so I have plenty of free time to care for animals! I will update my schedule once I know my classes for the fall semester. I have one friendly dog and one friendly cat. They both love to make friends. Our yard is not fenced in, but it is a large open area in a very quiet neighborhood. I do not let dogs out unsupervised or walk off leash.

About: As an animal lover of all kinds from Guinea pigs to Great Danes, I have 10 years of experience taking care of my own dog and Guinea pigs as well as a year of experience in Emergency and Intensive Veterinary Care working as a Vet Tech Assistant at one of the higher ranked animal hospitals in Connecticut. I have experience working with dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, and guinea pigs of all ages and in all different conditions of health. I am trained in animal CPR, Care (cage cleanings, food, water, etc.), walks every 2-4 hours, and more! So if your pet makes a mess or needs a little extra love - there's nothing I can't handle! I am currently home from college for the summer, so I am free most days of the week Mondays through Fridays, from extremely early mornings to later nights! *I will not be in the United States from June 20th until July 5th as I will be visiting family abroad :) In my own home, I have a dog and a guinea pig - this means frequent walks, feedings, plenty of play time and love, cage cleanings, enrichment, nail trimmings (only done by self on guinea pig), and baths every so often. I am of course going to treat your pet as I would my own, not just with plenty of love, but if there are any services you would like done while I am with your pet, let me know!

About: Hi! I’m Joe and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by 12 beagles..yes, 12! My family raised and trained them as hunting dogs, so I learned early on how to read dog behavior, keep up with high-energy pups, and make sure each dog got the attention they needed. Since then, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments from playful labs to shy rescues. I’ve also helped friends and neighbors with walking, feeding, and even post-surgery recovery care when needed. In college, I cared for a cat (who acted like a dog) and now I share my life with my sweet girl Delilah, a 12-year-old senior dog with plenty of wisdom and personality. I also worked at a horse stable to volunteer for a few years so larger dogs are more than fine! I'm attentive, active, and great with routines whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just someone to hang out with while you're away. I understand how much pets mean to us, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether your dog needs a companion, a jogging buddy, or a calm and patient presence, I’d love to help. I work weekdays from 8:30 AM to 4 PM, but I can take breaks during the day if you're located nearby for quick drop-ins or walks. I am also an early riser so mornings are not an issue. I'm fully available on weeknights and most weekends, and I’m happy to adjust my workout schedules to make sure your pet’s needs come first. I plan ahead, communicate clearly, and make sure every visit is on time and unrushed. Whether it’s a weekend house sit or weekday walk, I’ll make sure your pet gets consistent care and attention. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for when you're not around. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit, staying overnight, or taking your dog for a walk, I make sure everything is done just the way you’d do it. I stick to their routine, keep a close eye on their behavior, and make sure they’re comfortable and relaxed. I always double-check gates and doors, use secure leashes, and make sure your home is left just as I found it. Your pet’s safety and happiness (and your peace of mind) are what matter most to me.

“James was an excellent caregiver for my cat. He came over early to see the house and meet Finbar, sent nice updates and pictures. I would be happy to use his services again.”

I can mostly do weekend days and certain weekends depending on the time I can also travel there I have a fenced park across the st and I have a big cage in my house dog friendly pet and cat allowed to also

About: I grew up with a dog and always wanted one of my own. When I moved away from home, I missed my pup terribly. Caring for my friend’s dogs helped fill that void. Now I have my own pup who loves other dogs. Frankie is a 2.5 y/o Aussiedoodle. We love to take long walks, stopping for all the good sniffs, and go for runs together. I’m currently between jobs, so have plenty of time to care for and play with your furbaby! I’m available throughout the day for walking and sitting. I have a 6-ft high fenced yard and an energetic pup that is great at respecting your dog’s boundaries. I only sit one dog at a time and follow their routine. My goal is to make them comfortable and treat them as I do my own!

“Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girls. You must be a cat whisperer to get Casper to stay out!”

Shannon S.

“Paige and Brad were awesome with our pup! From the pre-trip meet & greet to the daily updates, we knew he was in caring and responsible hands. Paige and Brad are very responsive and great with communications, which gave us peace of mind while on vacation. We highly recommend Paige (and Brad if you are lucky!), and she gets two paws up from the pup!”

My partner and I like to stick to a routine for all of our pets And in the care of another fur baby we would ideally like to stick to the same routine that we implemented in our home. In terms of behavior, we are willing to help pets with basic commands, while, watching out for any unusual signs of the pets behavior and notifying the parent ahead of time just ensure that everyone is on the same page. When going outside for exercise, we will ensure that your dog is in a close space unless you stay otherwise just for safety and security.

“Took great care of our pup! Very kind!”

About: I specialize in caring for small to medium-sized dogs, including playful puppies and adult dogs with lots of energy. I’m patient, gentle, and experienced with crate training, feeding routines, potty breaks, and leash manners. Whether your pup needs structured playtime, snuggles, or a calm companion while you’re away, I provide attentive care that keeps them happy, safe, and on routine. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily routine. I build my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for whether that means morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings and playtime. I’m organized and flexible, so I’m able to provide consistent, dependable care while making sure each pet gets individual attention and love every day. Their well-being is a top priority in how I plan my week. When caring for pets in a client’s home or mine, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, meds, crate time, and preferred play or cuddle routines. I also make sure their space stays clean, safe, and comfortable. I respect the client’s home and keep everything tidy while giving their pet the love and attention they’re used to when their family’s around.
