“Sara was so easy to work with! Super communicative, precise and flexible for all situations. We have a cat who needs medication and she had no trouble dispensing them. Would recommend her 10 times out of 10!”
“Kristen was amazing ! I found her to be highly responsible, reliable, responsive with outstanding communication skills. Most importantly, during her first meet up with Baby, I could tell that she was outstanding with animals because even my very shy kitty felt at ease enough with her to make a connection at once! I could also see straight off that she was caring about him, not only as a client, but that she has a genuine love for and ability with animals. And when she shared with me that she has four kitties and a dog she adopted from a person who had terminal cancer and adopted all the kitties bc she could not decid which one, well ..that was it for me! She has such a heart for animals that upon hearing that story I felt such confidence in entrusting my sweet kitty to her while traveling to visit my daughter even though my cat has health issues and is just special in every way as she is. Do not hesitate to hire this girl ..you will not be sorry ! And with that said, on that note, when I returned I could see the bond that had former between her and my handsome boy ! I just can't give her high enough marks! Thanks oh SOO MUCH Kristen .. With grateful love , Lisa and Baby .PS..She communicated on each and every visit .and provided better pics of my kitty than I ever have taken of him myself as he is camera shy ..! Don't hesitate ..she is an absolute doll and is the top notch best!”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets my entire life between having my own, being a part of FFA in High School, and working with animals professionally. I have experience in maintaining animal cleanliness, grooming, veterinarian assistance and puppy training. I currently have open availability. I am able to accommodate any schedule including weekdays, weekends, and overnight stays. Whether its same day or advanced planning I am flexible and committed to providing reliable care as needed. I am more than happy to follow any schedule or rules you have set for your pet as well as provide updates during our visit.
About: I always been around dogs and animals my whole life and since I was really young I’ve owned a dog and have been taught how to take care of them. I’ve taken care of dogs of friends and family including dogs as young as a new puppy and as old as 13 years old. I would take close attention if there were any special details aswell. I am currently in college studying business and marketing. I am usually available most days a week and will always put animals before myself. I am trying to get more of a solid job soon, so availability may change soon. I always make sure that there is nothing of danger laying around in my house and in close reach of the dogs. And I would take the same care for another persons house as I would with my own, including keeping it clean and safe.
About: I have grown up around many different kinds of animals. I have lived on a farm for my entire life and love every second of it. It is hard work but very rewarding. I also went to an agricultural high school where I graduated with a certificate in animal science. I currently have 2 dogs and 3 cats of my own. For my farm animals I currently have llamas, goats, and ducks! I do have a few people that I house sit/ dog walk for and I enjoy getting to know all furry friends! I’m currently a student at Gateway Community College and have a part time job with the YMCA. My schedule is pretty flexible considering though. I work through the summer at a camp working with students from 8am-1:30pm. During the school year I work from 6am-8am then 2pm-6pm Monday through Friday. On the weekends I am typically free! I usually walk my dogs on a leash but they are also trained off leash. I also take them to many trails and to as many pet friendly places as possible. For others I like to get as much detail about your animal as possible to make them feel as comfortable as possible!
“Repeat (and happy) pup! Ryan is consistent and we always come home to a very happy and well cared for pup. He is great with communication as always. This time i forgot to leave a couple things out today and Ryan remembered where I told him they were. Ty!!!!”
About: Hello! My name is Nayra! I used to volunteer at the local ASPCA in my hometown of Meriden, Connecticut! Recently moved here and want to make connections with more pets! I’ve always loved animals ever since a young age, my goal is to make sure animals in need of care or help is taken care of. Throughout my life I have always been attached to dogs and tried my best to help as many as I could. I’m a owner of a German Shepherd and a poodle that suffers from many complications, I miss them very much and I look forward to meeting other dogs. And I also look forward to making connections with new dogs, learning their personalities, and giving them the care/attention that they need! Dogs are just like people. They’re all different and require different types of care.
About: I am a registered (human) nurse by trade and am confident that my medical skills, multitasking and attention to detail that I use in my medical practice will translate well in my meticulous care of any animal I am watching over. I grew up training my family’s English Bulldog from 7 weeks old until she left her earthly body at age 12, if you know bulldogs, you know they are stubborn and lazy- I will say, I took much pride in the fact that Gwen was perfectly trained for all her life thanks for the work I did in her early, formative years. When I was 20 i found my soul dog, Pup, as a stray dog in my driveway. If I am not with her, you can probably find me stopping people on the side of the road to pet their dog. I have had years of experience with dogs of all ages, since I am usually the neighborhood dog carer when neighbors are away for vacation! I am more than willing to administer medications, provide enriching activities, go on nice long walks, or simply hang on the couch. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I work as a registered nurse full time and am able to provide care on my days off. I have my own dog who loves her alone time so it will be important that I have time out of the house with your pup for my own pup to recharge! I am more than willing to follow your lead on how you care for your pup and mirror that so your dog feels like nothing has changed. My aim is to provide safe, secure care to your baby and maintain comfort for your pet since I will be a stranger coming into your home! I will be patient and loving with a kind tone of voice to foster a loving and consistent relationship.

They treat every animal as if he/she was their own, and in the time I have known Grace they have always remembered feeding schedules, bathroom times, and play time with the animal they are taking care of. They also pay attention to specific traits of the animal, such as their favorite treats, favorite toys, things they like to do and don't like to do. I would trust Grace to take care of my pet for any amount of time.”

She spends as much quality time as she can with Pup, whether that's napping on the couch together or running around having the zoomies. She is a loving and trustworthy pet owner, and I never had any issue leaving Filip with her, which was great because he usually didn't take to strangers right away.”
