Your Dog Will Feel Right At Home

Pet care experience

I have been around dogs my entire life. From small terriers to large shepherds, I have experience with virtually every breed of dog, all shapes and sizes. Currently I live in Woodbridge, CT and can travel to anywhere in Southern CT or beyond to watch your dog! From a single overnight stay to a week or more, I will be your dogs constant companion. I also offer hosting at my house which has a large yard and my own dog friendly cocker spaniel, Barney, for your dog to play with, as well as daycare with no overnight stay. At this time I can only offer 1-day overnight sitting in my house. Send me a message now to schedule your stay! I am available over the holidays! I have been dog sitting part time for almost 7 years and have experience working with dogs of every breed and size. I have many references from past clients I would be happy to share. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog fanatic all my life. Luckily, I have had the fortune of growing up with dogs in the family. My family has fostered and owned many dogs over the years, and I have been a part of each one of those dogs lives, as much as they've touched mine. I frequently volunteer at animal shelters and rescues around CT, especially the New Haven Animal Shelter. I just love getting to spend at much time as possible with my four legged friends! My experience administering medication I am both comfortable and experienced in virtually every form of medication. I have given insulin shots to diabetic dogs as well as fed pills to dogs for various reasons.

Elizabeth is without a doubt the best dog sitter I have ever had! She was extremely responsible and and very loving towards my Italian Greyhound, Dexter. She was also very knowledgable and helpful with helping me to train him. Too bad she moved to LA! I can't find anyone who compares...

Elizabeth watched my dog Baxter for about a year. Baxter has a lot of anxiety and has trouble with other dogs and Elizabeth came in and bonded with him and they became very close She watched him for a few hours or while I was away for a few days and took great care of him. Her love of dogs is very apparent and your dog will be in great hands with her. I recommend her highly.

Information Elizabeth R. would like to know about your pet

I have absolutely no breed preference, I think all dogs, with the right socialization and basic training, can be wonderful, loving pets. The only things I would prefer to know are, if the dog has any special needs, such as medication or physical impairments. Also any little thing that makes your dog unique, such as their favorite activities and toys. Also, if your dog has any restrictions or certain ways of handling him or her.

A typical day

Time I'll spend with your dog As much time as possible! All my free time and more will be happily spent with my new fuzzy friends! For any period of time needed I will spend taking care of and playing with/getting exercise with your dog(s). Extra house-sitting services Of course! I can also care for other pets such as cats, birds, fish or even horses! I have experience with pretty much any animal.
