“Kira was absolutely amazing. She stayed at the house to watch our kitties and pups - she sent updates regularly - we just felt so much at ease and were able to enjoy our time away knowing our little ones were getting the best of care and attention.”


“Katherine was absolutely fantastic! She walked both of our dogs twice a day, kept our home clean and tidy, and communicated with us regularly, which gave us great peace of mind. We came back to happy pups and a spotless house. Highly recommend her!”


“Madeline took great care of my babies. She communicated every day, and asked questions when she was unsure of behaviors, which I appreciated. My pups were happy and calm when I came home telling me they were well taken care of and loved. I will definitely have Madeljne stay with my pups again.”


“David was a professional from beginning to end. Connected beautifully with my dog, was on time, and did everything needed for Jasmine’s we’ll being. Will definitely be hiring him again at some point.”


“Kathryn is awesome!!!! My husband and I had a bad experience with Rover last June with another sitter and haven’t traveled since. After moving to Connecticut, we decided to give it a shot and test it out again for one night. Kathryn was so kind, polite and reassuring that all will be well after listening to our horrid experience last year. She offered two visits before the actual sitting just to get to know our Pep and us. She always showed up the time she said she would. Pep warmed up to her quickly. Dogs know :) During the sitting, she sent multiple updates and went above and beyond. She did everything she could to make sure pep was accommodated and comfortable! She also respected our home and left it as she found it. Will definitely be booking Kathryn again. We can’t thank you enough”


“Juliann was awesome!!! Can’t say enough good things about her and my dog adored her. Definitely recommend and will definitely be using her services again.”


“I was delighted seeing my pet was the same happy content dog I left! Such a relief! This isn't always the case and is often my only indication of how things went. I was comfortable with London staying in our space which seems to suit my dog the most, and she did a great job coordinating care with the other sitter as needed as we were gone a while, we split the care. I would definitely call London again. Thanks! London!”


About: I have 10+ years of experience caring for dogs. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as family members’ and neighbors’ dogs, including handling different temperaments. I’m currently off for the summer, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they need. In the fall, I may still have limited availability on certain days depending on my schedule. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll treat your home with care, keeping everything clean, tidy, and organized. I won’t bring anyone over — just me and your pet, focused on keeping them happy and stress-free.

About: I have taken care of friend’s pets when they were not present or in the room. When taking out their animals, I’ve prioritized their safety and how they are feeling above all else especially when outside. I am working part time at Lake Compounce, however I am always open to spend my spare time taking care of your animals to make sure they are fed and cared for. I can easily put your animal at rest by giving pats or providing a safe environment for then to relax. I could also play with toys if your animals wants to. I will also be attentive to when a bathroom break is needed and when food should be given to provide a safe environment.

“Keleigh is phenomenal I can’t say enough good things! She loves my puppy like her own, is super personable and takes amazing care of my home. She always goes above and beyond!”


About: Hi, my name is Marley, I am currently home in CT from studying my undergraduate degree at Oregon State University where I am about to start my final year come the Fall. Since I was 10 years old, I have volunteered at local dog and cat shelters whenever I have a couple open hours within the day: CPR (Companion Pet Rescue, Southbury CT), Heartland Humane Society (Corvallis OR), and Safe Haven Humane Society (Tangent OR). I have been dog sitting and cat sitting for local families for over 5 years just to help out and absolutely love it. I am always responsible of a pet’s health and prioritize them always. I currently have a part-time job where I do not work longer than 3-4 hours in a day (I only work about 2 days a week), so I have a wide open schedule and will prioritize visiting, hanging out, and caring for your animal before anything else :) I think that one of the most important jobs as a pet sitter is making sure nothing is rushed, which is why I spend as much time as needed with the animals I watch. I think it is crucial to make sure the animals are happy and healthy both when I arrive and when I leave. I love to take dogs on long walks, play with them outside, and give them the care they need (from feeding to outside time). As for cats, I think they deserve the same amount of attention and I will never pass up the opportunity to give a cat some pets!

“Shali was truly amazing. I will definitely be using her for pet sitting in the future. She was so sweet and attentive to our dog and our cats, and was so respectful of my space while she stayed at our house. She sent daily updates of our animals and was always quick to respond. I would recommend her over and over again and wish I could give her a 10⭐️ review!”

Cole O.
“Cole is an honest, hardworking young man. He’s Greta with my two dogs. Takes amazing care of them and is very patient with them. My 2 very high energy dogs are my babies, now that my kids are all older, and admittedly just a little spoiled. They are young and need a lot of exercise- which Cole does with them as needed. I am extremely particular about leaving them alone with anyone, but I don’t hesitate with Cole. He has the right combination of patience and authority they need. He asks questions when he appropriate and is dependable. If he says he will be there- he will. My boys adore him. Highly Recommend!!!”

Bradley F.
“Bradley is absolutely wonderful with my 2 dogs and cat. It is clear that he has a passion for animals. Both dogs received walks every day and he was great getting the older one to take her daily medication. I’m pretty sure they were sad to see me come home and Brad leave!”


August G.
“August was always on time, took wonderful care of my dogs, and was both kind and caring. I cannot recommend her more highly! She's great!”


Kaylee B.
“When I consider pet care there are several criteria that I begin with. These include work ethic, personality, responsibility, attention to detail, and how the candidate handles my dogs. Kaylee checks all the boxes and then some. Her love of animals is obvious, but she is also firm with them. The dogs understand that Kaylee is in charge. In the end my best test is how my dogs respond, and they love and trust Kaylee. So we do too.”


Ayah A.
“I highly recommend Ayah as a pet caregiver. She is responsible, compassionate, and truly loves animals. She took care of my dog while I was away on vacation and my dog started missing her when she was gone. She truly cares for animals as if they are her own! Your pets will be in excellent hands with her!”
