Dog Sitting Middlefield

About: I've had dogs my whole life. They're such a big part of me and I absolutely love meeting them. I'll follow any specifacation you may have for your dog. I love taking walks and playing with them. I will also feed additional pets that you may have or clean yards if needed. I am currently in college in the afternoon for an few hours on monday through thursday. I can stay at the owner's house if needed. However, I can also do visits to feed and let out if that is more comfortable for the owner. I often like to go on walk with dogs I am taking care of, they are always on the leash on these walks. I also enjoy going out in the yard to play with them. I am not opposed to crates.

“Laura was a perfect fit for our pups! She clearly loves animals and did a great job caring for ours while we were out of town. They got lots of walks and TLC, and we got some great pictures of happy pups to tide us over until we returned. She was always on time, and I would highly recommend her.”

“Kelly was fantastic dropping in 3 times a day to pull my geriatric cat and care for my three cats. She is reliable and very capable, engaging my cats in play. She cleaned the cat dishes, the litters and left the area immaculate. I will definitely book her again when we travel.”

About: I try to take parts of Cesar Milan's strategy with dogs specifically. Trying to not reward bad behavior. Making sure a pet can respect my boundaries. Currently have a dog walking client at Winding Brook Condominiums in Meriden. I’m there twice a day for 30 minute walks and play. I bought some balls for her so she can play. Have videos and lots of photos. I work flexible hours as an independent contractor so I make my own schedule. I am building my pet care business so I am signing up for a drone pilots license for pet recovery. I am also working on upgrading my vehicle to a minivan. I am offering pet sitting in your home until that can change to my home. I am needing different things done to my home before I can bring pets to my house.

About: I love dogs and enjoy nothing more than a good walk with them! My experience ranges from caring for my loyal Husky for 14 years to currently training a Giant Schnauzer puppy. I understand that every dog has a different personality, and I’m happy to accommodate puppies, seniors, and active walkers alike. While I'm usually busy during the week I'm pretty open on weekends and Mondays I just need the one day notice to schedule to come help with your best friend I provide a safe and controlled environment for every walk. I double-check all equipment and stay alert to our surroundings to avoid hazards before they happen. I value your trust and treat your pet and property with the highest level of responsibility.

About: Hi there! My name is Ellie, and I’m a passionate animal lover with over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have pups of my own, so I know how much trust it takes to let someone else care for your furry family member — and I treat every pet I meet with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. Whether your dog needs a fun walk to burn off energy, a drop-in to check on meals and snuggles, or full-on overnight care, I’ve got you covered. I’m reliable, patient, and fully committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby and give them the care they deserve! I currently work full-time during the day, but pet care is truly a passion of mine and a fulfilling part of my daily routine. I’m available for check-ins and walks in the early mornings before work and in the evenings after I get home. In some cases, I’m also able to swing by during my lunch break for a quick visit, depending on location and timing. I also offer overnight stays, which allows me to spend quality, uninterrupted time with your pet — perfect for dogs who need extra comfort or company while you’re away. While my weekday daytime availability is limited, I’m dependable, communicative, and always make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve when I’m with them! When your pet is in my care, their well-being is my top priority. I understand that every animal has their own unique needs, routines, and personalities — and I take the time to get to know them so I can provide care that makes them feel safe, seen, and loved. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet like one of my own, with patience, affection, and respect. I’m mindful, responsible, and always keep safety at the forefront — whether that’s making sure harnesses are secure, sticking to feeding instructions, or giving them their favorite toy at just the right moment. I believe animals know when someone truly cares for them — and I make it my mission to create a peaceful, loving environment where your pet can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

About: I have been living with dogs for my entire life and, since moving to Connecticut 6 months ago, I have been missing these furry friends! I have had the pleasure of working with 2 older dogs who had various age-related health conditions until the end of their lives and, in the last 4 years, have been able to raise and train 2 (very playful and mischievous) puppies. I work 9-5 in North Haven, CT and am available for early morning care and anytime after 6 pm during the work week. I am usually free all weekend and enjoy going on early morning walks and hikes! I find that with each dog, their preferences tend to guide my behavior around them. I have always been around dogs and puppies who required a lot of exercise and have bountiful amounts of personality and energy, but I also know that many pets, especially around new people, may require more time to warm up and may need extra care and attention. Ensuring the the owner's and dog's needs are met are my highest priority and I take extra care to note what a dog's daily and nightly routine is so to make sure I do not throw them off off from their daily life!

About: Hi! My name is Douglas, Doug for short. Currently a proud papa to a golden lab named Sunny, and a grey longhair cat named Remy. My best friend is a pug/chihuahua mix named Taz. I also had an old man chihuahua named Finn, and I’ll forever miss him. I feel like I speak dog, I know how to tailor my personality to meet the needs of any dog. Cliche to say but I am better with animals than with people. I am responsible, gentle, caring, and a big rule follower. I have pretty open availability throughout the week so I have lots of time to hang out with your dogs! Let me know what you need and I should be able to make it work! I have experience with crate training my dog so I am comfortable playing with your dog in the house or yard, and switching them to their crate if needed.

“Alex watched my dogs for several days while I was out of town and took fantastic care of them. She played fetch every time she went by, sent several pictures, and let me know anything out of the ordinary. I would highly recommend letting Alex take care of your fur babies!”

“Meghan is amazing! She treats our pet as a family member. She always keeps you updated and takes adorable pics. I wouldn’t know what to do without her loving care.”

About: I provide dogs the love and attention they deserve. I am comfortable with any situation. Animals, especially dogs have always had a special place in my heart. If there is a dog you know you can find me there! I am trustworthy, great at multi tasking and listening to instructions so you know that your pets are safe and taken care of with me. I am flexible with last minute requests and work hard to meet your pet sitting needs. I listen to the instructions given and I make sure to give the best service. if I don't understand or feel uncomfortable about something I always speak up and get the clarification I need. I have done this for years and I still choose this over other jobs I have had. Something about this job makes me feel like it's not a job at all. I enjoy it so much. I make sure your pup/s is safe and happy when you see them again. I check to see what their needs are and can assure you they will be taken care of.

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since I was 12 years old. For over 10 years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and administer medication to their pets. I have a 12-pound Jack Russell mix named Luna, who is almost 4 years old and loves both people and other animals. I’ve had her for the past 3 and a half years, which has given me plenty of hands-on experience with puppies and young dogs. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and understand the patience and attention they may need. In addition, I have volunteered at animal shelters, where I cared for a wide variety of dogs and cats by feeding them, cleaning cages, walking them, and providing enrichment and playtime. I truly love working with animals and would be excited to meet your pet and build a trusting connection through exercise, play, and attentive care. I am currently in college for social work. I take my classes online and I have open availability to care for my clients and their animals. Trust and safety are two of my top priorities when it comes to taking care of your fur baby. I have an extensive amount of experience when it comes to caring for animals. I always treat them as if they were my own. I will frequently keep you updated when I walk your dog.

“Kenzie did a fantastic job with Poko. She came as scheduled and sent pictures of Poko while we were out. We just got home and Poko seems very happy. Would definitely like to work with Kenzie again.”

About: Growing up dogs have been a huge part of my lifestyle and household. Having owned 8 furry friends in my lifetime, and 1 being a cat, it’s hard not to pick up on their language 😂. Especially with the energetic Pomeranians my mom’s side loved. Aside from this experience, family, friends, and neighbors have regularly relied on me to take care of their pets while they’ve been away. Approaching every dog I see in public has become a mission of mine and it makes my day interacting with high energy animals! Trust when I say the pleasure is mine! I currently work part time, Sunday-Wednesday. On Sundays I’m out of work at noon, and on the weekdays I work I’m out by 2pm. Thursday-Saturday my schedule is most flexible. I do like to stay busy so I prefer advance notice, earlier the better. Last second bookings are possible, just less guaranteed. I have a few packs of treats that I keep for dogs. The brands I’ve purchased include Old Mother Hubbard, WholeHearted, Zuke’s, Good Lovin’, etc. I usually mix it up because some dogs are surprisingly picky. Let me know of any medical problems or dietary needs. I’ve dealt with many unique medical concerns. Some examples include pets requiring doses of medicine each day, restrictions on physical activity, and ones with anxiety. Let me know any accommodations or special needs, I will follow! I also have a couple toys just in case.

“Jenna is reliable and my dog loves her!”
