“Ronnie was phenomenal!!! He showed up promptly every day and sent updates on how the pets were doing. He cleaned up any mess that our dog may have made, and was easy to get a hold of. My dog has some anxiety around other dogs, and he did a great job of making sure she felt safe going outside and handling her business. Ronnie, thank you! You will be hearing from me again :)”


“This was our first time using Rover for watching our fur babies and Sydney could not have made the experience any more pleasant. She spent quality time with them and we could tell from the pictures she shared that Coco really enjoyed her company. We will definitely be looking to her again for our next trip.”


“She did an amazing job with our two cats over the holiday week! Everything went very smoothly, always gave a good report and visited at consistent times. We will be booking again when we need another cat sitter!”


About: I have always been a pet lover, but my soft spot is definitely for dogs! I have experience at dog daycares and boarding facilities and sanctuaries/rescues. I am CPR certified. I have experience and patience with senior dogs, they deserve all the love too! I am currently looking to becoming a full time pet care specialist, I want to build a clientele here and build relationships with new dogs. A few things factor into this. Most importantly for me is knowing and understanding the pets current routine, following all instructions and any precautions-for pets safety and my own, then updating owner about stay/walk/visit.

About: Dog, Cat, Reptiles, or any furry babies- I am here to help. Looking for a pet sitter who treats your pets like family? I’ve raised many animals over the years and specialize in many breeds. I volunteered most of my life rescuing animals and working with those who needed second or third chances. I am passionate, very patient and trustworthy. In my care, your pets are welcome on the furniture, get plenty of love, and will be absolutely spoiled. I’d love to meet your furry friend! When babysitting someone’s pet, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I stick to their usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, give them lots of attention, and make sure they get plenty of cuddles and care — just like they would with their family! I show love and affection by spending quality time with each pet — giving plenty of pets, belly rubs, and playtime. I talk to them, let them snuggle up if they want, and make sure they always feel safe, happy, and part of the family while they’re with me.

About: Me and my family have had pets since I can remember, but I was always the one who cared a little extra about each. I have trained my family dog Skylar, who is a Newfoundland, too sit, lay, stay, shake, and roll over, as well as potty trained her. I have had many friends and family members request for me to dog/cat sit for them and I will make sure I do everything they need me too. I am currently a full time student! Most of my days are free other than when I’m in class. I do have clinicals every week which keeps me for about 13 hours so depending on you pets needs it may be ok or not! I am in a home with a yard that has lots of room for walks and bathroom breaks! When I get home I make sure I greet each pet, and confirm everything is okay such as, health, food/water, potty breaks!

About: I’ve owned cats and dogs for about 20 years, growing up we always had Akitas as the family dog and had 3 cats at one point (one of which needed seizure medication consistently so I do have experience there). I work remotely making calls most of the day and our family dogs passed a few months ago so I’d love to be around animals again just not ready for my own right now I currently work remotely making calls most of the day Monday-Friday and can step out to make sure your pets get all the care they need, weekends I’m also available as needed. I live in a small apartment along the canal so I’m happy to take them on plenty of walks along the canal if boarding is needed

About: Your furry friends will receive the utmost care and attention. I am an experienced sitter, and will administer medications as prescribed, ensuring their health and well-being. I'm equipped to handle potential health challenges, such as prolonged illnesses or heart conditions, providing comfort and support throughout. Whether it's a quick visit or extended stay, your pets will enjoy personalized care, including walks, playtime, and plenty of love. I have a full-time job working from home, remotely, which gives me the freedom and flexibility to take care of pets without any major interruption to my daily work schedule. I personally feed my own dogs two times per day, morning and night. My dogs at night for many years but that's because they love their space. I don't mind having animals out, on furniture, and cuddling up with me.

About: Throughout my life I have owned a variety of dogs. From small dogs, to big ones, young and elderly, I can understand what man's best friend needs. Whether it'd be going for a walk, or grooming a feline friend, I can do it all. Im currently in the process of getting a new job, and my schedule is virtually free. Talking to my client about times and dates will be important for helping me plan out my schedule in the future. I can follow a care-plan that any client would wish to provide me at their home. Aside from that, I will ensure that any questions or help that I might need with a pet will be directly asked to the client.

About: I am wild about dogs, all breeds. I often think if I could go back, I might have gone to school to be a veterinarian. I grew up with dobermans, cats, riding horses and much more. I have found that most animals love me. I just lost my Golden Retriever, Nalu, after 14 amazing years. Something to be said in that she had more Facebook friends & photos than I do. I just moved down here a year ago from South Glastonbury and most of my new neighbors in Deep River have asked me to watch their animals at one time or another without any sort of solicitation so I believe that is a testament to my character and integrity. Any other questions you might have, I would be happy to answer.

“Sue is absolutely incredible! Our two pugs love when she comes over and she takes care of them like they are her own. I would highly recommend her services.”


About: My name is jaiden, I’ve owned and trained dogs since I was 11 years old, mainly large breed dogs including pit bulls, German shepherds , and labs. I’ve been recommended to friends and family for my remarkable success with training even the most difficult dogs. My motto is patience , kindness , and consistency when it comes to working with animals and I believe that our fur babies deserve as much care and love as anyone else. I also would love to become a veterinarian after college and I am currently saving up for that. I have open availability throughout the next couple months. I do accept same day requests and I will be available Monday - Sunday at any times. Each pet has their own personality, it’s important to get to know them before going ahead with standard routines. I take my two dogs on 30 minute walks 4 times a day as well as off leash yard running time and they are fed meals 3 times a day. They have a play time in the backyard as well as rest time and this is not even half of their routines :) both my dogs enjoy different meal preparations and I make sure to make any necessary changes to their foods to keep them happy and healthy and will do the same with my clients pets

“Amber did a great job taking care of our 2 cats. She was friendly, organized and on-schedule each day. Our guys really appreciate having human interaction each day. She is very experienced with animals from cats and dogs to farm animals. Thanks Amber!”


“Very attentive! She did a great job with our kitty and made an effort to play every day (even when she didn't want to bc she's a cat, of course). She left us pictures every day, which we really liked, too! Will hire again for any future needs we have, and I would recommend her to any family or friend!”


“Kimber is positive, upbeat, and had wonderful energy the moment she stepped in to meet the pets. The chemistry between the herd and her was magnificent and the video I received supported it when they were playing. Would love to book her again in the future ☺️”


About: I grew up with dogs & cats. My parents bred Westies and we had a houseful. I’ve always had at least one dog and at least one cat until recently when I lost my most recent cat. Now Sophie, my dog, and I are on our own. We both love dogs and are looking forward to meeting some new friends I work part time for myself, so I’m very flexible and there won’t be a schedule problem. I’m sort of a homebody so I won’t be gone much other than for work I don’t have a fenced yard, at my house but I have 5 acres surrounded by miles of farmland and a playful playmate in Sophie. At your house, I will easily adapt to your pet’s lifestyle.

About: I have a great deal of experience with dogs - small, large, young, old - as a pet owner and as a family/friend pet sitter. This includes experience with dogs that have disabilities and special needs. I also have 3 pet birds, so I am comfortable and familiar with caring for avian family members too. Even though most of my experience is with dogs, I am also available for cat sitting. I love all animals! I currently work full-time Monday through Friday. I am available evenings and weekends to take care of your pet's needs whether it is going for a walk, pet/house sitting, or even just play time. At this time, I am able to come to you for pet services. I will take care of your pet/house as if it was my own. It's stressful for you and your pets when you are away from home and I would hope to minimize that stress by giving your pets the attention & TLC they would get if you were there.

“Kathy went above and beyond when looking in on my dog. She took time to make sure Sophie got extra love, playtime and treats. I appreciate Kathy's passion for animals. It definitely shows!!”



About: I can not remember a time in my life when I did not have dogs or cat. I currently have a senior dog and a new puppy. They have become part of the family, especially now that both my sons have moved out. I have had the same job for 16 years in the medical field. Therefore, I am a very reliable and conscientious worker. I enjoy walks with my dogs and they get all the love, attention and pampering I can give them. I would do the same for your beloved pet. I know how much they mean to you, since I feel the exact same way. I have cared for many pet in my 54 years. From senior pets, puppies and those with medical issues. I have a very flexible schedule. I have been a respiratory therapist for over thirty years

About: I've had and cared for my own pets since I was a little girl, including dogs, cats, rabbits, fish and reptiles. I also worked for Petco for a short while in my college years, so I have experience caring for small animals (mice, guinea pigs, ferrets, etc). My boyfriend and I currently have 2 dogs of our own, and a 5 month old baby boy! We go for daily walks on the canal or at the cemetery near our house, as long as the weather permits. I love animal training and the study of animal behavior. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, so I am very free throughout the day all week! We already go on our own daily pack-walks, so adding a couple more furry friends here and there would be no problem! Our dogs love to play and have a ton of energy! We love doggy play-dates whenever we can get them. We have a decent sized back yard for dog play, and our basement is also a designated puppy-play zone when the weather is wet or cold. We have two long leads in our backyard to ensure no furry friend comes or goes without us knowing. Our dogs are very friendly with other dogs, and love to play and run with new friends! We try to stick to a predictable schedule with them daily, which includes 2 meals a day, 2 play times, at least 1 walk, and a training session with high-incentive treats. We are more than willing to come to your furry friend for play dates and walks as well!
