About: PLEASE READ FULL PROFILE BEFORE YOU BOOK AND CHECK CALENDAR IF I AM AVIALABLE. Hello! Thank you for your interest. I am located in beautiful Guilford on RT. 77 .Very easy access from 95. I live with my 19 year old son. Your dog MUST be house trained, vaccinated, and on flea/tick prevention. And your doggy must love kids because we love dogs! We play fetch a lot and lots of walks in our big yard. I also walk a few miles a day and love the company! We also have a dog run. I usually take one dog at a time (unless otherwise specified) so they get our total attention and its a small house. We do not have our own dog. PLEASE PLEASE check my calendar for availability first. I do request a meet and greet,if you are a new client to make sure it is a good fit for us all. I am a teacher, so we follow a teacher daily schedule. So they MUST be ok home alone unless I am on school break and weekends. Please make sure your dog's information is filled out prior to booking. We hope to hear from you soon! Thank you! I am a teacher. So I follow the teacher schedule (hrs, off time). The dog must be able to be left alone during the typical school hours. Pets are inside with me. When I go out I like to take the dog with me-car rides, walks, baseball games etc. If its too hot I do have central air.

Did an amazing job in such short notice. Kept in close contact with us about when she got to our house and what was going on. Gave us pics to make sure all was right with our 4 dogs. We will definitely use her again.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have experience caring for cats, dogs, and many other kinds of animals. I know that every pet is unique and deserves individualized care, patience, and affection. I enjoy getting to know each pets quirks and what makes them feel happy and safe. I’m attentive, and pay attention to the details. Just tell me what you need and I’ll be happy to provide whatever is required for you and your pet to feel cared for and comfortable! I’m currently a Biochemistry student at CU Boulder and am home in Connecticut for the summer. In between now and when school starts I have tons of free time and have the flexibility to work with whatever schedule is best for you! I take extreme care in client’s homes and am always respectful of their space. I am careful to never breach anyone’s privacy and do whatever is needed to make the client feel secure. As for the pet/pets, I am very attentive to their needs. I pay close attention to things like body language to insure they are happy and healthy.

About: It's important to know that someone cares about your pet when hiring them, i'd love the opportunity to take care of your furry family member! I've always had pets in the house since I was a kid and so it feels like second nature to take care of pets. I grew up with dogs, and now have a cat of my own and we are obsessed with our little Roo. It makes me feel so much better when I know he is in good hands when we are away, and so I would like to be that for you and your pet! I currently work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule during the week! I can create my own schedule that will work for the both of us. I first want to make sure I know all of the ins and outs of what my clients needs are for their pet. They are the ones who know the most about their animal and once I know what they need, I am very proactive and communicative about making sure their pet is safe and cared for. Open communication is key!

Olivia did an awesome job ! It's always hard trusting someone to care for your babies but she gave me peace of mind while I was away. My cat warmed up to her right away which made me happy that they had company while I was gone 🥰 she even took the initiative to clean up and always reached out if she had any questions. She was quick to respond, followed all care instructions, and the communication was great! Lots of pics ☺️ I highly recommend her and look forward to having her sit for me again !

About: I absolutely love all types of dogs and cats! Ever since I was 10 years old I have not lived without a dog in my house. I am flexible with your pets needs from walking to running and biking or taking them to the dog park. I have experience with administering medicine orally or injections. I have a dog of my own (who currently lives out of state at the moment with my boyfriend) so I know the responsibilities of what it takes to be a great dog owner, he is large and high energy so I am not intimidated by dogs with tough personalities. I am very reliable and will respond usually very quickly to texts or calls thank you in advance for considering me to walk/watch your pet! I am currently working Monday-Thursday 7am-5pm so I am mostly available on weekends Friday-Sunday. I have an hour for lunch so I can also check on a pet then but it is not guaranteed. I treat your pets as though they are my own! I know how hard it can be to leave them so I make sure they feel like they are on vacation too by giving them walks, cuddles and permitted treats.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have owned dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve also had cats for over 10 years, giving me experience with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I give every pet. I understand that each animal is unique, so I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities to make them feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’m happy to provide the care they need. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and give owners peace of mind through reliable, loving care and regular updates. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available throughout the week for visits, feeding, playtime, walks, and companionship. I make it a priority to stick to each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s a quick check-in or spending extra time giving your pet attention and affection, I’m committed to providing reliable and consistent care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their familiar environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, playtime, and any special care needs. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and personality so I can provide care that feels consistent and reassuring. I also make sure pets always have access to fresh water, receive plenty of attention and affection, and remain secure while I’m in the home. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for both your pet and your home. I treat every home with respect, keep owners updated with messages and photos, and strive to provide dependable care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

I can't say enough good things about Paris! She has been walking my dog twice a week, and I've been incredibly impressed with her professionalism and care. Paris is sweet, responsible, and dependable—qualities that are so important when it comes to trusting someone with your pet. Not only does she ensure my dog gets the exercise she needs, but she also helps with basic training during their walks. I've noticed a real improvement in my dog's behavior and responsiveness, thanks to Paris's attention and guidance. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she works with, and I feel so lucky to have found her. I highly recommend Paris to anyone looking for a fantastic dog walker!

About: I bring the belly rubs and the good vibes! With experience caring for playful puppies, mellow seniors, and everything in between, I tailor my care to each dog’s unique needs. From basic training to meds and cuddle time, your pup gets reliable, loving attention—and a tail-wagging good time every visit. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m flexible, especially on weekdays. I work part-time Wednesdays and Thursdays, but I’m available most Mondays, Tuesdays, and Sundays, especially in the mornings and afternoons. I love building regular schedules with pets and their owners, so your pup gets consistent, loving care that works for both of us. I take care of dogs in a calm, quiet home with no other pets, so your dog can feel safe and relaxed. The neighborhood is very safe, so I can take long, peaceful walks. Whether I’m at your home or mine, I always follow your instructions and make sure your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for.

I cannot recommend Isabella enough as a petsitter. She went above and beyond to make sure our cat's needs were met. She's a sweet and caring pet sitter. She's trustworthy and reliable. Our cat needed to take medication and Bella was very receptive and quick to learn what she needed to do in order for our cat to be well. She also helped with any other small favors and tasks we requested. Her communication about her visits was excellent, she made us feel like we left our cat in the best possible hands. Our cat tends to be very shy but he immediately opened up to Bella, if you need someone to look after your cats look no further, they will be in the best hands with Isabella.

About: I am an exceptional dog trainer which is another service that I provide. I don't mind working with troubled or hard cases. Raised dogs half my life. Used to be deeply involved with different rescue operations and local vets to do what I can for these pups. Also have experience with dog boarding at corporate facilities however I run everything right out of my home. So it's more like visiting your pups uncle Marco rather than a lil puppy prison. My other day job is taking care of my handicapped mother so no reason that I can't take care if some furry balls of move too while I'm at it! I'm home often which is where I board and watch the puppers. So we have a fenced in back yard and a large house. My mother does smoke but only upstairs and in her room. Bad mother! However its relatively isolated and isnt noticeable from downstairs. We have a 5 year old labrador retriever and small house cat to keep any visitors entertained! They are both very playful, gentle and non aggressive

Emily makes Cozmo so comfortable and happy, he smiles around her. He usually only shows that big smile after he does his favorite thing, which is catching a frisbee. She is responsible, reliable, and answers right away when you check in with her. She kept his water dish full and even made him more fresh broccoli, ready for his future meals when I returned. I would highly recommend her and have already referred her to my friends.

Melanie was wonderful with our cat! Our cat automatically went right up to her, which is always a great sign. She followed all of our instructions carefully, was very accommodating, and communicated well throughout the process. Her rates were also very reasonable, and she was kind, reliable, and easy to work with. We felt comfortable knowing our cat was in good hands and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!
