Cat Sitting in Ledyard Center

“Elizabeth is great. She went above and beyond. Bud likes her and she doesn’t just do tasks, she gives him love and attention (and catnip!). This is our second time having Elizabeth care for Bud and we are thrilled to have someone close by who is reliable and thorough. Getting the pictures from their visits makes me miss him a little less when we’re away.”

About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s who I am. I work part-time at a dog daycare, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. That experience helps me understand their needs, read their behavior, and keep them happy and safe. At home, I have my own furry family (1 dog, 1 cat), and I treat every pet like it is one of my own. When you trust me with your pets, they’ll get the same love, patience, and care I give to mine. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life. I work part-time at a dog daycare, so my days naturally revolve around feeding, walking, playing, and making sure dogs feel safe and loved. When I’m not there, I’m spending time with my own pets going for hikes, walks, giving belly rubs, and keeping a consistent, loving routine. Caring for animals isn’t just something I schedule in; it’s something that’s built into everything I do. Whether in my home or a client’s, safety and trust always come first. I make sure every pet feels comfortable and secure by keeping their routines consistent and their environment calm and clean. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, from feeding schedules to favorite toys, and I always keep a close eye on behavior and energy levels. I treat every pet like family, with patience, kindness, and plenty of love.

“Tina was a fabulous cat sitter! We have a kitty who doesn't get along with dogs and tries to elope all the time. Tina did a great job keeping him inside and did not take on any dogs to watch while he was there. She constantly updated me with pictures and texts and treated our Oscar like he was her own. ❤️”

“Melissa was amazing and took excellent care of our three babies while we were gone for three weeks! We have one very shy boy who normally hides when there are new people around but he loved her visits, coming up to her for treats! That tells me all I need to know about Melissa and the love she gave them while we were gone. Thank you so much Melissa! ❤️”

About: I've lived with dogs nearly my whole life, and cats for half of it. I have taken care of said pets for years and been an in-family pet sitter on numerous occasions. My mother frequently cares for other pets through apps like this/through friends, and I assist her with that when needed. At the moment, I care for my mother's pets when she leaves town for any length of time (1 small/medium dog, 1 cat). Otherwise, I'm a free agent. Some of the services listed on the app have the potential to overlap (such as a visit and a walk), I don't consider the price to be totally compounding, just let me know and we can figure out what works best. I'd imagine this is on a situational basis. I'll pet/feed/walk them and am able to follow directions as well as any human, should your pet require specific, or unique, handling. I can usually read pet body language pretty well, but have no specific training in it. If there are any areas of confusion for me, I'll be sure to ask questions to make sure your pet is cared for properly.

“She was very accommodating for my 2 finicky cats! She took the time to look for my shy cat in the house to feed him his treat and gave me clear notes and pictures each visit.”

“She takes great care of my kitties with their individual needs and is incredibly kind and friendly! I'd recommend her in a heartbeat. She even helped me out with a last minute request due to unexpected travel and is really compassionate.”

“Mary was so great with my dog, will be using her as my regular dog sitter going forward. Was super attentive and interactive with him from the first meet and greet. Great communication from her and loved the check ins she sent while she came to visit, very glad I found somebody so happy to spend some time with him when I’m at work. 10/10 recommend!”

James S.

About: I have dog sat my neighbors dog multiple times over the past two years. I have 2 dogs at home and take care of them by walking, playing, feeding, etc. I am a college student and have classes throughout the day. By being able to walk dogs it’ll be a good way to make some money while being able to go to class. I walk them daily, put food their bowls, and play with them. My dogs at home are very energetic so it is constant play and walking.

About: I had a maltese puppy for 10 years from age 9 weeks onward and most recently had a shih tzu puppy that turned 1 on 5/28/25. In the oast I've had pets including hamsters, guinea pigs, chickens, and fish of my own. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so your pup will get lots of attention and care throughout the day. Here's what a typical day looks like when your dog is with me: 🐾 Morning (7am–10am): Potty break, breakfast, and a light walk or play session 🐾 Midday (11am–2pm): Walks, potty breaks, enrichment games, or just relaxing cuddle time 🐾 Afternoon (3pm–6pm): Another walk or active playtime in a safe, calm environment 🐾 Evening (7pm–9pm): Dinner, a final potty break, and winding down for the night I'm available for: ✅ Drop-in visits ✅ Dog walking ✅ Puppy care Weekend and holiday availability included! I’m happy to accommodate special routines, medications, or specific instructions your dog needs to feel comfortable and loved. When you trust me to care for your dog, I show up with love, respect, and attention to detail — all in the comfort of your dog’s familiar surroundings. 🐶 In-Home Peace of Mind: I care for pets in their own homes, where they feel most secure. Whether I’m dropping in for a quick visit, taking your pup for a walk, or staying overnight, I follow your routine closely to minimize stress and keep your dog calm and happy. 🦴 Personalized, Gentle Care: I specialize in small breeds and have over 10 years of experience. From meal schedules and potty routines to medication or calming techniques, I provide care tailored to your dog’s specific needs. 🚶🏽‍♀️ Safe & Engaging Walks: Walks are done one-on-one in familiar areas, with close attention to your pet’s energy level, leash behavior, and comfort. I avoid crowded dog parks or risky environments to keep your dog safe. 📝 Trustworthy & Transparent: I communicate clearly, provide updates, and send photos during every visit. You’ll always know how your pet is doing, whether I’m there for 20 minutes or staying the night. Your pet stays safe, your home is respected, and you can relax knowing your furry family member is in loving, responsible hands.

“Faith has been phenomenal for the past year that she has been taking care of my cat. She is very professional, responsive, and I always know my cat will be well looked after!”

About: I have worked multiple professional positions in the animal care field where I have cared for everything from dogs to owls. I grew up with dogs, cats, and exotic pets and have been pet sitting frequently for 14 years. I am looking to enrich my days caring for your furry loved ones! I have a flexible schedule but am hoping for early morning, afternoon, or evening care visits. I am available most weekends and am happy to help with overnights I am comfortable walking your dog either in your neighborhood or bringing them to a nearby trail for an outdoor adventure. I can play with them at home, help them in an out of a crate, and administer medication as needed

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was little, I have a special connection with every dog/pet that I meet and take it upon myself to make sure the little ones are happy and safe I’m currently looking for a job, but have not found one yet, once I do get one I will still be able to have an open schedule I do not care for pets in my home as I already have two dogs of my own and cannot keep any more in the house
