Pet Sitting in New Canaan

“Violeta is fantastic! She always keeps us updated on all visits and has been a pleasure to work with. We never question whether our Frenchies are in good hands when she's looking after them.”

“Kevin and Ana came exactly when they said, walked my dogs and dried them off from the rain, and were very communicative. When my new address was not updated in the system and they ended up at my old address, they contacted me right away and without hesitation went to my new address 20 minutes away. I will definitely get in touch again when I need a dog walker and sitter!”

About: I’ve had my dogs since they were puppies. They were rescues from the south. (Beagle-Lab mix and German Shepard). Both dogs have different temperaments and I’ve learned to adapt to their personalities. I’m currently a student-athlete. My schedule is very flexible during the fall and sprint semesters. And summer/winter I’m available all day. I have a remote IT which enables me to schedule as needed. I take care of the dogs through consistent routine. Walk them first thing in the morning, feed them, then walk them again. I let them out mid-day and play with them. Evenings I feed them and take them out for a walk again. And then right before I go to bed, give them one more walk. Throughout the day I try my best to make sure they get the right amount of exercise depending on the dog.

About: Whether you need a simple walk, overnight care, or more specialized services (like drop-in visits for feeding and playtime), I offer a variety of flexible options to fit your dog’s routine and your schedule. I know how important it is to stay connected while you’re away, so I send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can see your dog enjoying their time, knowing they're in great hands. I currently have a rather flexible schedule because I only work freelance so I can make plenty of time for your pets and their needs. When I care for pets at your home, I make sure to stick to your pet's usual schedule—whether that’s feeding, walking, or playtime. This routine consistency helps reduce stress and keeps them comfortable in their familiar environment.

“Sofia took great care of our cat! She followed all the instructions, Mason seemed happy, and he had food, water, and a clean litter box when we got home. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos!”

“Cam took fantastic care of my cat over the course of eight days and I will definitely use him again. He was on-time and sent various pics during each visit”

“Alexandra took excellent care of our two cats while we were away, taking time to get to know them and play with them each visit. We were thrilled they were in such good hands and will definitely ask Alexandra to help us again.”

About: Hi, I'm Joy! I have been caring for dogs & cats for her 40 years I am an experienced dog walker. I have owned Golden Retrievers for 45 years. There is nothing I enjoy more than walking - I hit the pavement several times a day in any type of climate and weather conditions. With confidence and ease, I will enter any home environment to tend to all needs for all types of pets: dogs, small rodents, cats, and birds. I frequent nearby dog parks and exercise areas and am exposed to many dog breeds. I currently own a Golden Retrievers: a 3 year-old male. I suppose you could say that my main hobby has always been about the animals. They bring me such comfort and joy! Spending time with your pet will be a happy addition to my day. I currently do work out of the house with a very flexible schedule. I will do my best to fit your pet care needs into my day. Currently i will not be bringing your dog into my home. I will come to your home to walk in your neighborhood or play in your yard.

“Alexis not only genuinely loves dogs but she is responsible and trustworthy. Pleasant and upbeat, she is the kind of person you want coming into your home while you are away. She took great care of my pup and I loved receiving the photos she sent and an activity report after every visit.”

“We were away for almost a month and Jennifer came by daily to take care of our cat. Everything went great and she provided daily updates on how he was doing. We're very happy with the service she provided.”

About: I am nurturing, very reliable and absolutely adore all of my fur friends! I find so much joy walking with my client's doggos. I take care of them as if they are my own and do my best to honor any and all requests. For doggy daycare and for boarding, I create a safe, relaxing & playful home for your dog with loads of love & snuggles mixed in. I have a 5 yr old cairn terrier who gets along wonderfully with other dogs. My furry friends make themselves right at home in our house and outside in our fully fenced-in backyard. We also live in a safe walkable neighborhood that is very pet-friendly for dog walks. I have been around dogs my whole life but have been professionally walking dogs and boarding dogs part time for close to 2 years. I am now looking to expand my clientele and would to love to set up a meet & greet or talk over the phone! **For doggy daycare, please note, I only have dogs that are great around children and other dogs and have updated vaccines.** For doggy daycare, your pup will never be left home alone for more than 2 hours (I can absolutely make accommodations to be home more if requested). I also love to take requests for dog walks M-F. Pet friends are in a comfortable and loving environment here, free to play & relax indoors or out in our fully fenced yard. Sleeping preference is whatever they like best. We love to play, go for walks and chill with all our doggo friends!

“Wendy is great! We had her come walk our dog for two days in a row and then a drop in while we were gone for the day, all in 1 weeks time, and each visit went great! She is very attentive to updates and making sure our Haruki is safe and sound for all walks and visits. Definitely recommend her services!”

Kenzie K.

“I am a new Rover user and was nervous about entrusting my 8-month-old puppy to someone I didn't know. But Samantha exceeded expectations in many ways! She clearly loves dogs and was excited to meet my Yogi. She gave him a wonderful walk, made sure he had plenty of water, and even adjusted her schedule to meet our preferred timeline. Yogi was happy as a clam when we got home, and we are thrilled that we now have a reliable sitter to call for future needs.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since my first year of college (2018). Neighbors, friends and family had relied on me to walk, feed and play with their dogs. I’m also good at training dogs basic commands. I’m currently working from home and rarely leave the house during the day so I’ll have a lot of time to play with your fur baby! I have a fenced yard and two cute dogs next door (a beagle named Finn and a Rottweiler named Jasmine, they are both very friendly!) to keep your fur baby accompanied, I can also crate your puppy if needed.

“Aileen was a great communicator and very responsible. I will definitely use her again!”

About: We have a loving home filled with animal lovers who would love to welcome your doggy into our care. We have a fenced-in yard where your pet will run free and chase a ball or frisbee. Your dog will receive much one-on-one attention, snuggles, and playtime. Daily off-leash hikes are included in the price if you're comfortable! I'm a yoga teacher, so I am home most of the day. My husband works from home and loves dogs and cats. Your dog or cat will have tons of attention and be well cared for. I love to go for walks in the land trusts and parks! We always bring water and treats on our walks. My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and recognize what a valuable part of the family they are. We offer boarding or daycare and only accept 2 dogs at a time to ensure they get the attention and care they need. We are not quite ready to commit to getting a dog full-time as we are waiting until our youngest is 5, so this is a great way to have a furry friend in our home for now. We look forward to meeting you!! I am a yoga teacher and mother of three. My family and I love animals and have boarded in the past. We took a break when my twins were babies, but now that they are older, we are excited to welcome pets into our home. I am home quite a bit as I have a very flexible schedule. I love to go for walks and would always take your dog with me if that's what they like to do. If they prefer the couch, they are welcome to get cozy and hang out. I look forward to meeting you and your dog or cat. We have a safe and loving home for your furry baby. We provide lots of play, cuddles, and frequent walks or play in the backyard.

About: I’ve had a Golden Retriever and have also looked after my friends’ dogs and cats. Right now, I have a cat named Peachy. I just really love spending time with pets and giving them lots of attention and care. I’m patient, reliable, and make sure pets feel comfortable and loved. Plus, I’m pretty sure Peachy the cat thinks I’m his favorite human (but don’t tell the others!). I'm currently working part-time and I am available all days except Mon and Thu in August. I can come any time just tell me when you need to leave I can't host your pet at my house for now. When I come to the client's house, I make sure I know everything about pet's care, and I do everything to make them happy

About: I am a caretaker at heart for people and pets! I have four kids at home and two labradors. The peace of mind that comes knowing everyone is in good hands is mind settling. I am a Mom to four teens so always on the move! My weekday and weekend schedule is flexible. Happy to accommodate your needs for pet sitting or walking. I have two very friendly dogs and although I only have an invisible fenced yard, I am happy to go out with your pet and get their energy out!
