House Sitting in New Haven

“Mads was easy to work with and great with little Mars. The pup hadn’t been feeling well and Mads was very attentive.”

About: I’ve raised seven puppies and cared for a 15-year-old senior dog, so I’m comfortable with everything from potty training and high-energy pups to gentle senior care and medication routines. I’ve also had three dogs and two cats, so I understand different personalities and multi-pet households. I’m attentive, patient, and very communicative — your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I intentionally build my schedule around walks, feedings, and quality time. I’m used to planning my days around pet needs, and I make sure their care is prioritized and never rushed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow feeding schedules closely, maintain walk and play routines, administer any needed medications, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I’m very mindful of respecting your space and keeping your home clean and organized. I communicate regularly with updates and photos so you feel completely at ease while you’re away. 🐾

“Took great care of Gracie - sent pictures, reliable, responsive and made sure everything was cared for prior to leaving - which I have found to be lacking in many dog sitters.”

“Marie is the best!!!! She takes such good care of our pup and is responsive and sends the best daily updates with great photos of our pup having a great time. Marie really provides a peace of mind that is hard to find when leaving your dog. Also, she kept the place cleaner than we left it and that is always appreciated!!”

“Arabelle was a joy to work with! She was meticulous in her planning and knowing what needed to be done for Floki, plus making sure she had all emergency numbers and what to do in case of an emergency. She made sure Floki was was very well cared for while we were away and even brought him a new ball to play with! He was walked, fed on time and played with in our yard with frequent communications so that we could see all of the fun he was having. I would highly recommend Arabelle to anyone that needs overnight care or even daily check ins. She was just what we needed and expected for our fur family and will be using her again for future day trips and longer vacations!”

“Heather was absolutely wonderful with our dog and extremely communicative throughout all of her visits. We will definitely be using her services again in the future and can’t recommend her enough.”

Mike D.

“Emily was wonderful with our pups and cats! She housesat for 5 days/nights and took great care of everyone and everything! She sent us texts and photos and asked about things that might be concerning, like one of our cats who has cherry eye (I hadn't mentioned it, as I don't really think about it and he hid in our initial visit) and she was concerned that he might have gotten his eye scratched. Very thorough and sent me a text of her perception of their personalities....spot on!! The dogs LOVED her too! I would use her for petsitting without hesitation! Extremely trustworthy young woman!”

Mandy J.

“Kel was so wonderful with our critters! Our pup is a bit of a weirdo and Kel was so receptive to all of Clover’s idiosyncrasies with going outside. She made sure to give us plenty of updates throughout the weekend and ensured our pup got her meds each day. So much peace of mind knowing our critters was well taken care of while we were away.”

Hope W.

“Highly recommend Liza. Dog lover, very professional, excellent attention to detail, and very helpful.”

Marshall D.

“Aleeki was great! My dog got a little sick while I was away, she handled it like a pro. Was very communicative throughout and left the place totally spotless.”

Katie E.

“Jassmyne was great. She took good care of Mars, who was a happy dog on my return. She’s very responsive and responsible. We’ll happily have her back.”

Gian-Carl C.

“Patty really cares about caring for animals. She was easy to schedule on short notice, made sure we met ahead of time to ensure that there was a good fit between her and Zola, and was accommodating throughout the visit. I appreciated all the photos and updates. Feels less stressful traveling when you know your four legged friend is in good hands. Thanks, Patty! Would reccomend.”

About: I have had dogs & cats my whole life & have grown up taking care of neighbors’ & friends’ pets in addition to my own! I have also cared for birds, rabbits, reptiles, and exotic animals at rehabilitation facilities. I love animals & am ready to attend to the specific needs of all different species. This summer, I am working irregular schedules for a few different side gigs but currently have ample free time every day & night to attend to your pets! I treat every animal & home with the respect that I would treat my own. I want to ensure the comfort of the pet & also minimize stress as much as possible for you! I am a strong communicator and will not hesitate to reach out with questions to make sure you know I care about providing the best service.

“Taresh is kind and took great care of our beagle mix puppy. Would recommend and book again.”

About: I’ve had dogs for my entire life and could not imagine it without them! I’ve had several Labrador retrievers and a German shepherd, and have trained them since about 8 weeks old. I have experience administering oral and injectable medications including insulin. I have a medical background so am great with dogs who need medical attention! I’m in graduate school, so my schedule varies on weekdays and I am available all day on weekends. I tend to spend time in and around East Rock and downtown. I always ensure to be gentle and caring with all dogs. I love to play fetch, go for walks, or just hang out! I will meet any and all requests you have. I also have experience with administering oral medications and giving insulin.

“Sienna was fantastic! She stayed at our house and watched our two cats and dog. She sent me pictures and gave me plenty to of updates. She was a pleasure to work with from beginning to the end. My animals were very well taken care of I plan on using her again in the future!”

Kristi P.

“Veronica was wonderful! She played with our pup and took her on lots of walks. We got plenty of update photos and videos. She was really respectful of our home and left it very tidy. We’d be happy to have her again!”

Erin B.

“Brooklyn pet-sat for my two dogs and took great care of them. She is super friendly and communicative, and we were able to enjoy our time away without any worries.”

Katja S.

“Dustin did a great job watching our pets and our home under less than perfect conditions. We were very concerned when a snow storm knocked out power while we were away, but Dustin didn’t panic and took care of everything until the power finally was restored. When we returned the house and pets were all in fine shape. We thank dustin, and we will certainly use his services again if needed.”

About: I love dogs as the oversized babies that they are. I love to play with them and go on hikes. It’s great to have a little buddy around. I work full time but looking forward to walking dogs after or before work. I’m looking forward to having a companion while hosting dogs on my days off I’m very attentive and engaging. I am adaptable to each dogs personality and energy levels. Whether it’s a cozy day watching tv and cuddling on the couch or out and about on a hike.
