Dog Sitting Killingworth

“Maya did an excellent job taking care of our two cats!”

“Roger ROCKS! He took great care of our doggies while we were away, and truly cared to make sure they were comfortable and happy. We arranged for daily house-sitting while we were away, and couldn’t have been happier; Roger even swept up the house and deck, cleaned up the dog crates, and even did a bit of weeding — all of his own volition! It was great knowing the dogs were in good hands, and a big treat to come back to an even cleaner house. We’ll definitely be checking in with Roger next time we’ll be going away!”

“Dustin is the absolute best! It’s only because of him I was able to leave for two weeks and enjoy time with my loved ones for the holidays. He is trustworthy, consistent, and reliable. He was patient with my girl, Marshmallow, and accommodated to her needs. My family and I are so grateful for Dustin, and I plan to rebook him in the future.”

“Kellyn is friendly, reliable, and great with our dogs! Looking forward to peace of mind and using her for future times away.”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my two cats received! Serenity was absolutely amazing, she went above and beyond to make sure they were not only well fed and safe, but also loved and comforted while I was away. She provided regular updates, photos, and was incredibly responsive and kind. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!”

“Very responsible, reliable and communicative. Highly recommend!”

“Nikki was fantastic! It was great to be able to go away and have peace of mind that my kitties were in good hands. My cat who is super picky and hides from everyone even came out for her. I highly recommend Nikki!”

About: I’ve been a pet and animal owner my entire life. We have 3 young kids who love to play and one energetic 4 year old dog who also loves to play, so your pet would get a lot of play time at this house! I have lots of availability this summer, so reach out to me for specifics. Once fall hits and I’m back at school, I’ll be available for weekends. We have one friendly dog to keep yours company. Our yard is not fenced in, but we take frequent walks throughout the day. Our dog sleeps upstairs in the bedroom with us, but we do have a crate available if needed.

“Kim did an amazing job”

About: I am well-versed in pet nutrition, exercise needs, and I am committed to providing the highest level of care to ensure the physical and emotional well-being of every animal in my care. I'm currently in law school, so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets throughout the week. I'm available for house sittings and drop in visits. I'm very experienced with dogs and cats. I spend a lot of time with them at home and on walks. I recognize that every pet has unique needs and preferences. I excel at tailoring my approach to meet the specific requirements of each animal, ensuring they are comfortable, happy, and safe.

“I found Charles to be a reliable, considerate, intelligent and dedicated Individual. He helped me out when I needed someone trustworthy to look after my pet. I would recommend him to anyone.”

Stephen S.

“Courtney is an absolutely wonderful, trustworthy, caring cat-sitter. I feel incredibly lucky to have found her and to continue working with her as my periodic sitter. She has a lovely presence and a calming energy that my cats absolutely gravitate to--she immediately gained their trust and mine. Courtney is responsive and communicative, which really sets me at ease--especially when I've needed to take longer trips away from my two cats. I cannot recommend her more highly!”

“Jordan was a fantastic sitter who went above and beyond. In the initial meet and greet she asked all the right questions, and during the booking she always kept me up to date with detailed notes about my cat and happy photos. She was very accommodating when I had to extend my trip, and she was on top of things when some of the food ran low during the extended time. My cat is very happy and loves her! Will definitely book again as a trusted sitter.”

About: I've been caring for animals for most of my life and have experience with a wide variety of species, personalities, ages, and care needs. From energetic puppies (so cute!) to senior pets (so precious!) requiring medication, I understand that every animal is unique and deserves individualized attention, patience, and compassion. My experience includes dogs of all sizes and breeds, cats, rabbits, chickens, ferrets, turtles, frogs, iguanas, ball pythons, Burmese pythons, freshwater aquariums, and saltwater reef systems (to name a few). Over the years, I've cared for animals with different temperaments, feeding requirements, and daily routines, and am comfortable following detailed care instructions to ensure routine consistency while humans are away. I have experience administering medications and understand the importance of maintaining schedules, monitoring behavior, and recognizing when something may be out of the ordinary. I am also comfortable caring for senior pets who may require additional patience, assistance, or specialized care. As a longtime small business owner on the Connecticut shoreline, I understand the value of trust, communication, and reliability. When caring for your pets, I treat them with the same attention and respect I would expect for my own animals. My goal is to provide peace of mind while you're away through dependable care, regular updates, and genuine affection for the animals entrusted to me. Whether your household includes a single dog, a multi-pet family, exotic animals, backyard chickens, or even aquariums, I am comfortable adapting to different environments and care routines. I know how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for, and I take that responsibility seriously. For me, pet care isn't just about feeding schedules and walks—it's about building trust with each animal, respecting their individual personalities, and helping them feel secure and comfortable until their family returns home. After recently closing a local business that I owned and operated for 15 years, I decided to pursue opportunities that allow me to spend more time doing something I genuinely enjoy—caring for animals. As a result, I have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate daytime visits, evening care, weekends, holidays, and last-minute requests when availability allows. I enjoy the opportunity to stay active, help fellow pet owners, and spend time with animals of all kinds. Pet care is not simply a way to fill my schedule; it's something I find rewarding and meaningful. I understand how important it is to find someone dependable to care for your pets, and I strive to provide the same level of care, communication, and reliability that I would want for my own fur, finned and scaled babies. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, preferences, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions before care begins. I understand that consistency helps reduce stress and keeps pets comfortable while their families are away. As a longtime Connecticut shoreline business owner and resident, I understand the trust involved when someone gives you access to their home and entrusts you with the care of a beloved family member. I take that responsibility seriously and strive to provide dependable, professional, and compassionate care at all times. In a client's home, I work to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible. I provide fresh food and water, walks or playtime as appropriate, litter box or habitat maintenance, medication administration when needed, and plenty of attention based on your pet's personality and comfort level. I also treat every home with the same respect and care I would expect in my own. I believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates and photos whenever possible to help you feel connected and reassured while you're away. Because of my experience caring for a wide variety of animals—including dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, ferrets, reptiles, amphibians, and both freshwater and saltwater aquariums—I understand the importance of observation and recognizing when something may be out of the ordinary. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, activity levels, and overall well-being so that concerns can be addressed promptly if they arise. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, dependable, and low-stress experience for both pets and their people, so you can enjoy your time away with confidence and peace of mind.

“What a wonderful cat sitter. Alexandra is an excellent pet sitter. We have a timid cat, yet she was able to sit on our couch and pett her. She was responsible for giving our cat pills for asthma and never missed the correct days. Our cat Mocha loved Alexandra taking care of her!! Can't say enough!!”
