About: I grew up around cats and dogs within my own home, other family members houses, & friends. We had a cat of our own until last year when we moved out of CT for a short time and had to sadly re-home him. He’s missed very much! I’ve also house sat pets and walked friends dogs as well. I work part time so I have a lot free time on my hands which makes me very flexible at all hours and time during the week! I care for pets as if they are my own. With all the love and fun that they can take whether they are in my home or I am in theirs!
7. Christine G.
“We were thrilled with the dog walking service provided by Christine while we were away for the week! Christine was professional, punctual and very attentive to our Pomeranian's needs. We appreciated the detailed updates and photos after each walk as they gave us peace of mind. We could tell he was happy and well-exercised. Christine also took the time to brush him daily which he thoroughly enjoyed. I would highly recommend her services to any dog owner looking for a reliable and loving caretaker for their furry friend!”

“So happy I chose Sophie to walk my beloved golden Oliver, she was extremely thorough and incredibly caring. Loved the pictures!! and she went out of her way to make sure she got all the details and also ensured we had total peace of mind. Especially when she checked Oliver for ticks after he walked in the grass. And making sure he got water after the walk! Amazing experience!”

She is very trustable and will make everyone’s pet feel like one of her own.”

Katie made sure my energetic dog got ran everyday and that my elderly dog was always comfortable (and administered his meds). She sent me pictures throughout the week too- playing with the dogs, swimming with them and walking them at the park. She even let them sleep with her!! She is a huge dog lover and you will feel confident leaving your dogs with her knowing they are well taken care of (and getting loved on). Will use Katie forever!”

16. Gregory S.
About: I have dogs and cats my whole life. And have cared for friends pets. I don't think I could life without a animal of some kind in my life. I work the night shift and have all day for care. But will be retiring in a little over a year. Will be able to do more and animals will give me something to do and happy I know how I take care of my dog. But each client has there own way. Would have to discuss each pet each one is different .

She is the most trustworthy and responsible person for the job!”
