Carol is an exceptional Pet Sitter and HOUSE Sitter. I have no complaints. I felt incredibly comfortable upon meeting her and talking to her from the get-go. She left my house spotless and my dogs were loved on every minute of the day. Very grateful to have connected with her.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Leaving our dog for six days was a little nerve-wracking, especially since medication needed to be given as needed, but I felt completely at ease the entire time. Carol took wonderful care of our dog, made sure all of his needs were met, administered his medication when necessary, and kept us updated regularly with messages and photos. It was so reassuring to know he was in such caring and capable hands. I am so grateful for the love and attention she gave Toby and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter. I would happily book with her again!

Carol was absolutely amazing! She took care of our Nala girl for the fourth weekend! Not only did she help with fireworks she also made sure she was okay during one of the largest summer storms this year! We 100% recommend her and are so lucky we found her!

We have just recently moved to CT, and I will be honest I was nervous about finding a new pet sitter for our mini Aussie. I immediately zeroed in on Carol’s profile, and we scheduled a call. A calmness came over me after our informative conversation. We booked her right away for August. Then we scheduled a quick get away this past weekend. Carol was wonderful. She handled Maverick’s reactive behavior upon meeting him with a caring approach. They became fast friends. Carol kept me updated throughout our time away. She provided pictures, told me what activities she was doing to keep him mentally stimulated, how he was eating, etc. We are so fortunate to have found Carol. I highly recommend her, but secretly would love to keep her for ourselves :) We will also be rebooking her for October.

Carol was amazing and very professional! Carol watched our dog on our wedding day and was perfect — reliable, communicative, and flexible. We fully recommend Carol, and look forward to future dog sitting!

Carol was super responsible with dog and home. Our senior dog with mobility issues bonded with her immediately and though she was happy to see us when we got home she did sit by the door looking longingly like she wanted Carol to come back. Highly recommend.
