Terri P.

About: I love animals & have had many--from turtles & fish to cats & dogs & goats. Its such a pleasure to tend to them & just be with them. I'm super responsible & your pet will be my priority the entire time you are away. It will be such fun! Experience with older dogs & cats as well as special needs dogs & cats :) I am a freelance worker which gives me ample opportunity to accommodate to your pet's and your schedule needs. I have a very flexible schedule. Since I myself have had stay-in-sitters for my pets; I know how important it is to have a truly attentive & responsible sitter in order to relax while you are away. While you are away I will ensure that your pets daily feeding, walking & companionship needs are met. WE will have such a great time together!

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends, neighbors and family members since I was 10. I have potty trained and taught basic commands to my dogs, fed and cared for cats, guinea pigs and ball pythons. Pets are part of the family and should get high quality care regardless of their owners scheduling requirements. I'm working part time over the summer and looking to have pets to care for in my spare time. My availability is pretty open with the exception of 9am to 12pm Monday through Thursday in July. I would love to play with your pets, bring them for walks, provide food, water, love and attention. I genuinely care for all animals and would love to get to spend time with your pet.

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life. Even through college and grad school, I had roommates with pets. Now I’m living in a rental that doesn’t allow animals, so I’m hoping to find some local pets to care for and spend time with! I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all ages and activity levels since I was young, and I enjoy taking dogs for walks any time of year! I’m a middle school teacher, so I have a pretty consistent schedule from August-June. Most days I’m able to leave work by 3, so I have all afternoon and evening to care for pets. In the summer and on breaks, I have a lot more flexibility with my schedule. I do have a small fenced in yard in case I had a client’s pet in my home, though I’d more than likely care for the pets in the client’s home. I have experience feeding, bathing, crating, giving meds, walking, and snuggling dogs of all ages and activity levels, as well as feeding and giving meds to cats.

“Bekka was wonderful with my dog Spencer! She took him for a nice walk and then threw some toys around for him as well. He loved his time with Bekka! Will definitely be rebooking!”

About: I’ve always had dogs of my own since I was little, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve looked after dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to slower-moving seniors—and I’m comfortable with things like crate training, giving medications, and sticking to your pet’s routine. I truly love being around animals. I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Whether they need lots of playtime or just a calm, cozy space, I adapt to meet their needs. Even with a busy schedule as a student-athlete, I always make time for pet care. I’m available mornings, during the day, evenings, and weekends, and I’m willing to adjust things to make it work for you and your pup! When caring for pets in your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they get their walks, meals, playtime, and any special care they need... all while respecting your space and keeping everything tidy. They’ll have a safe space, plenty of attention, and lots of love!

About: I started my pet care experience walking dogs in my neighborhood and house sitting for neighbors, friends, and family. I then started working at a doggy daycare in high school, Petsmart in college, and I currently work at another doggy daycare. I also have a German Shepherd, so I am comfortable and experienced with large dogs! I am currently home from school for the summer until August 22nd. I have a part-time job 2 or 3 times per week, but other than that I am very flexible and available! Unfortunately I will not be able to host pets in my home as I have a German Shepherd who can be territorial, but I’d love to come to you!

About: Throughout my life I have been surrounded by pets. I have cared for my multiple pets that I’ve had in the past from dogs, to cats, to fish, and snakes. I have looked after family and friends pets, before with great pleasure and happiness. At the moment I currently am available 7 days out of the week. I am free mornings, evenings, and nights, I am very flexible. I will always meet you and your lovable pet with a smile. Also the prices are always negotiable Whenever I pet sit I love bringing dogs to parks and playing with the animal(s). I believe that just as we like to stretch our legs, that dogs love running around and seeing the great environment of parks and their friendly neighborhood. I myself personally love exercise so walks and runs with your pet, and playing fetch, if it applies will be no chore to me. Pertaining to my family, they love pets and have had many before so when I board your loving pet they will be in a lovable environment.

About: My family has always had pets. In my adulthood, I have owned and trained a yellow lab and chocolate lab and currently have a black lab named Kingston. He is my best friend and his amazing. We also have a tabby cat named Biggie Smalls. He is very sweet. I am looking forward to the opportunity to spending time with your amazing pet friends and caring for them as if they’re my own. I am a 20 year teacher with the summers off and I’m available six days a week. I spend my summer months catching up on yardwork and vacationing with my family and can be available to assist in times of need for your pets. I can be available to care for your pets both at your home and take them for walks when needed. I am flexible with requests.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life—I’ve grown up around dogs and have personally raised both a German Shepherd and a Yorkie Terrier, giving me experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I’ve also cared for cats, horses, and farm animals for years, so I’m comfortable with pets of all kinds and ages. From feeding and walking to bathing and playtime, I’ve done it all. I’m great at reading animal behavior and helping them feel safe, happy, and well-cared for. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine! I work part-time with a flexible schedule, so I’m available on my days off as well as before or after my shifts. I love spending time with animals, so I’m excited to fill my free time caring for pets and helping out fellow pet parents whenever I can! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow your routine as closely as possible so your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. I stick to feeding and walk schedules, give them lots of love and attention, and always keep an eye on their behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy. I also treat your home with respect—keeping things clean, secure, and just the way you left them. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel totally comfortable and at ease during the time I’m there.

“Carla has been great with my girls Mouse and Ivy. She is super dependable. She is always prompt with her communication and always lets me know if there is anything out of the ordinary during her visits and walks, which I appreciate very much. I recommend Carla, without reservation, for your pet care.”

About: I have had a love for animal my whole life. I have had the opportunity to take of my friend's dogs. I would pet sit for my mother's dogs for years and gained lots of experience. I currently own a 2 year old, spade, Golden Doodle named Yumi with my girlfriend. I'm in-between jobs at the moment, so I will have plenty of time to care and play with your pups. My schedule is completely open. I usually walk my dog every 3-4 hours. There is plenty of yard space for play outside. Usually feeding is 2 times a day unless otherwise specified by the owner

About: I am a 21 year old stay at home mom and I am looking for a full-time job for pet sitting/ boarding positions to fill. I am a very friendly, dependable and responsible woman. I have past experience watching over family/friends pets and enjoy doing so thoroughly. In my free time I enjoy spending time my dogs who is a aussie-boxer mix and a 15 week old Dalmatian. I like to build a close relationship with all people and animals that I encounter. I provide pet care and dog walking services at my home which included feeding, exercise and play, waste clean-up and administering medications when needed. I can provide pet sitting and overnight stays to clients when needed, including canines with special needs. I can work with special needs pets (previously abused, shy, food-aggressive, etc.) With me, care is provided for special needs dogs, to include grooming, medication, and walking. If I am considered to pet sit for your fur-child you would not be disappointed!

About: I have had dogs my entire life and I deeply care for them and love them. They always bring me great joy when I get to play with them and take care of them. I love to go for walks and hikes. I also enjoy going to parks and the beach when possible for long walks. I take care of my parents two cocker spaniels when they are away. I helped train my parents dogs and helped raised them from when they were puppies. I have also fostered an older dog with medical issues and have experience dealing with dog medication. I work full time and am looking to make money on the side. I can stop in before work, middle of day and after work and I’m free weekends. I care for my own pet every day from taking her for walks, food, daily medication and lots of cuddles. Working from home allows me to be flexible with my schedule to include caring for others pets. I care for your pets just a kind and loving as you would. I fully believe they are part of a family and should be treated that way. I will respect your home and any requests you may have for your pets.

About: I was previous owner of a pit and a chihuahua, I have a love for dogs. I can truly relate to anyone when it comes to someone truly caring about your dog, you want them to be treated like children, cared for like children. It’s something I will provide every time that I am with them, I can truly say dogs know who does it from the heart and who doesn’t. I currently work during the for Autistic support and have been working with children of all age groups for more than 10 years, like I stated before I am previous owner of a pit and chihuahua , they are currently is with my mom due to the move she made and me getting married she wanted to take them with her.

About: Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a lifelong dog lover and dedicated dog trainer with years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From cuddly couch potatoes to high-energy working breeds, I’ve built a strong understanding of canine behavior—and I absolutely love what I do. I offer dog boarding, doggy daycare, drop-in visits, and dog walks, with flexible availability to fit your schedule. Whether your pup needs a fun-filled day of play or a cozy place to stay while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. My walks may be priced a bit higher, but they come with added value: if you’d like, I’ll incorporate leash manners and basic obedience training into the walk at no extra cost. It’s a great way to keep your dog mentally and physically engaged while reinforcing positive behavior. My doggy daycare service is perfect for busy pet parents who want their dogs to enjoy a full day of enrichment and social time in a safe environment. I offer transportation for daycare (and overnight boarding) within a reasonable distance in my dedicated van, which is equipped with secure crates for safe and comfortable travel. Your dog will have access to a full acre of securely fenced yard to run, play, and explore—plus a dog-friendly pool to cool off in during hot days! To ensure a safe and structured environment, all dogs will be crate rotated throughout the day. Crate rotation provides dogs with the rest and structure they need while preventing overstimulation and helping maintain a peaceful group dynamic. Safety is always my number one priority! I’ve previously worked in an animal hospital, so I’m also experienced in administering medications and providing attentive care for dogs with special health needs. Whether it’s pills, or a customized care routine, I make sure your dog is comfortable and well cared for. Right now, I’m in the exciting process of growing my dog boarding and training business full-time. I’ve completely finished and transformed my basement into a dedicated board-and-train facility to provide a safe, clean, and enriching environment for every dog that stays with me. I’m currently working on obtaining all the proper licensing to operate at the highest professional standard. For now we’re going through Rover! For everyone’s safety, all dogs staying overnight will be crated during sleeping hours and when unsupervised. This helps ensure the well-being of your pup as well as the safety of other dogs in my care. Each crate setup is comfortable and designed to help your dog feel secure and relaxed. I bring energy and enthusiasm to every interaction—whether I’m caring for a laid-back senior dog or working with a high-drive sport dog. I also compete in dog sports with my own dogs, so I’m extremely comfortable handling all energy levels. While I’m not yet a certified dog trainer, I’m actively working toward professional dog training credentials to continue growing my knowledge and giving each dog the best care possible. I use only positive, reward-based training methods that help dogs feel safe, confident, and loved. If you’re looking for someone who brings both experience and heart to every visit, walk, or overnight stay, I’d love to meet you and your pup. I truly can’t wait to meet my new clients—both human and canine—and welcome every dog into my care as if they were my own. Your pup will be treated like family every step of the way!! Positive Puppy Training Sessions 🐾 I offer private, positive-based puppy training sessions designed to help your pup build confidence, learn good manners, and strengthen their bond with you. • Single Session: $90 • Training Bundle: $80/session (4 sessions total – 1 session a week for a month) The bundle covers all the puppy basics: ✅ Recall (coming when called) ✅ Sit, Stay, and Down ✅ Leash Manners ✅ Handling Puppy Biting Every session is fun, personalized, and focused on setting you and your puppy up for long-term success. ✨ Free consultations available! I’m happy to chat with you beforehand to see how I can best support you and your pup. Taking care of pets is what I do every day—it’s the heart of my business. I offer full-time boarding, daycare, and training from my home, which is set up just for dogs. Every day is planned around keeping dogs safe, happy, and engaged, making sure each one gets the attention and care they deserve. At my home, dogs enjoy a safe, structured environment with crate rotation, a fenced acre to run, and a pool to cool off. I treat every dog like my own, keeping things fun but safe. For drop-ins and walks, I follow any care instructions closely and can include basic training or medication if needed. Your dog’s safety and happiness always come first!

About: (See note at bottom about available hours). Birds, dogs, cats, snakes, chickens, chinchillas, lizards, fish, and even tarantulas! I’m a lifelong animal lover, and since I started house/pet-sitting in high school, I’ve cared for a huge variety of animals. I adore animals of all shapes and sizes, and I have so much fun getting to meet new fur-buddies and taking care of them while their owners are away! I know how important our pets are, and I will treat each pet with the love and care I give my own. I am also used to giving medicine to animals if necessary, as well as providing a little extra support to older or special needs pets, so just inform me if there's anything your pet needs from me that I should know about beforehand. NOTE: I am unable to stay overnight in your home. However, I am still available to house-sit for those of you that don’t mind if I come by late at night and early in the morning and just don’t stay overnight. The reason I’m still including the option to book me for house-sitting is that it’s much cheaper for you than it is to book individual drop-ins for each day, plus I can hang out for longer than drop-ins in most cases. Sorry for those of you that need someone to stay overnight, I hope you understand, and fortunately there’s lots of great sitters on Rover that can watch your fur-babies instead if that’s the case! My schedule is very flexible, as I work from home. It is possible to bring some work with me, but it takes me longer to do things in that case, so I most likely will return home to work. However, since I make my own hours, I can stop by anytime morning, day, or evening to spend time with your fur babies! For some cases I can bring my laptop with me to your home, just ask me about it when you reach out! I love to play and cuddle! My own cats are quite spoiled with pets and toys of all kinds. I do not currently have a dog, but when I did, we went for walks daily and played tug and fetch. I love all fur-babies and yours will receive the same love and care I’d want for my own if I were away! I also love to give kitty and doggy massages, but always start gentle and make sure your pet likes it before continuing. I’ve yet to meet a dog that doesn’t love getting a massage - cats are hit or miss though!

About: I'm currently the behavior manager for our dog team at Our Companions Animal Rescue. I work at our sanctuary where I manage a team of competent handlers and I work with reactive/aggressive dogs. I'm currently working on getting my CPDT. If you hire me, I promise your canine companion will receive the care, compassion, patience, and attention they deserve. I'm generally always free Sundays and Mondays. I do work full-time Tuesday to Saturday, so my availability is somewhat limited. I can provide my dog walking/activity assistance after 4pm on those work days, except Fridays. Due to my long history and experience working with dogs, I have the ability to read dogs very well to detect if they are anxious, fearful, or uncomfortable. My goal is to make sure your dog gets exactly what they need, whether it's a certain activity they enjoy, training they need, or a certain destination they love for their outdoor time. Positive reinforcement is the name of the game.

About: I currently have a 16 poodle in China which I grow up with. Every summer when I go back to China, I walk him three times a day. Every time during midnight, I will take him out run with him. Which might be the reason he is still looking very healthy. I’m currently a student at UConn, this is my last semester and I am only having 1 class in Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon from 2:30pm to 3:30pm. I am also couch a basketball club, and we will most likely to have practice on Saturday 7pm to 9 pm I will most likely to the pet at the place I am able to have my eyes on and make sure I know what are they doing to keep them out of danger
