1. Carley T.

“Carley, thank you for your excellent care of our two kitties, keeping up with our big boy's meds, getting our shy girl to come out and enjoy time with you, giving them loving attention, and managing their food/water/litter. Much appreciated & will contact again when we need coverage. Thank you!”

About: Hi, I enjoy all ages of dogs and cats. I have had many, many dogs and cats growing up raising them from newborn puppies or kittens all the way into their senior years. I am well experienced in training puppies, playing with active cats/dogs and caring for sick or aged pets as well. I have also volunteered for many rescue organizations, most recently Meriden Humane Society. The joy animals bring me, far surpasses any other career I've had throughout the years. I currently am transitioning into part-time retirement of running my own HVAC company and I would like to start doing what I enjoy more; caring for animals(and plants!). I currently have a very active, under one, golden retriever and a 6 year old golden retriever. We love to go outside and throw the ball, play in the wading pool, or let the dogs play together in the backyard.

“Samantha is our go-to for Luna! She’s Always reliable, pro & communicative & sends cute pics & goes beyond (like bringing in a package left on stairs so it doesn’t get wet) or letting us know if anything seems important with house while we’re away. 🐱”


5. Olivia B.

“Olivia’s first few days with the Frenchies was great. They loved her. On to our first full week. Looking forward to seeing Olivia this week 😊”


6. Reeve F.

“My two kitties loved visiting with Reeve!! I felt very comfortable being away from home knowing they were ok. Loved all of the picture updates🫶🏻”


7. Jennifer L.
“Jennifer took great care of my two Boston terriers. One of my guys is blind and deaf with dementia, and Jennifer was readily up the the challenge of taking care of him, and did so with ease! She sent pictures and updates, and it was great knowing that he was doing well and getting loved!”


8. Katherine L.

“Katherine was great with our kitties! They both love her and she instantly made our shy baby cat feel comfortable (she even got some cuddles with her!!) She’s easy to communicate with, responsive, and respectful of our space. Thank you Katherine!”


9. Kristina M.
About: I have over 15 years of pet-care experience. I've had many pets of my own- including dogs, cats, a bunny and a fish- but I also babysit for families with multiple dogs, which often requires I feed, play with and give potty breaks for the pets. I just genuinely love spending time with animals! I am currently in college part time (two days a week, until summer when I'll have no classes), and I babysit here and there, but I'm looking for more work during the weekdays. Preferably between 8am and 2:30pm. I can follow any guidelines you give me for caring for your pet. I know pet playtime is important, especially for working pet owners, so I will always show up with energy, but I also understand that some pets need a more calm presence, so I can be flexible and adapt to your pet as needed.


10. Binti D.
“We have an older dog with health problems as well as a new, very energetic puppy. Binti was amazing! She was able to sense when our older dog needed a little extra love and balance that with the demands of a puppy. Would highly recommend!”


11. Jennifer K.
“I can’t say enough good things about Jenni and the love she has for animals. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, look no further. Jenni has a natural gift when it comes to connecting with animals — it’s something you notice instantly. She is incredibly attentive, compassionate, and always goes the extra mile to make sure every animal in her care feels safe, loved, and happy. What sets Jenni apart is her genuine passion. She has a German Shepherd of her own who is not only well-behaved but clearly adored. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just giving a pet some extra attention, Jenni is fully present and engaged. Her home is warm and welcoming, a true safe haven for any pet. She is the kind of person who brings out the best in everyone, two-legged or four. If you have the chance to have Jenni care for your animal, take it. You won’t find anyone better.”


12. Adriana & Christopher V.


“My cat was happy about the service and she would recommend it to anyone else”


13. Melissa B.

“Melissa was OUTSTANDING and I would highly recommend her. She was punctual, provided great feedback and with photos. I could not be happier!”


14. Cayton M.

“Cayton did a great job taking care of my cat Rudy. She is very capable at giving medication. Rudy was always happy to see her. Cayton also brought in the package that was sitting on my front step. I will definitely reach out to her again when I need care for Rudy while I'm away! I'd recommend her to anybody needing pet care.”


15. Samantha O.
“Samantha is a wonderful pet owner, as she has taken care of pets her whole life. I've seen nothing but love from her when she's around animals. She's not only a great person around animals, but people as well! You'll be happy to have her around!”


16. Eliza S.

“We are very happy to have found Eliza. She has been very good at communicating and punctual and our dogs are always calm and happy when we return. Highly recommend Eliza...except for when we need her!!”


17. Juliana C.
About: WALKS / PLAY TIME: M-F 6-9 PM OVERNIGTS: Friday evening - Sunday evening I have made many furry friends over the past 15+ years. Dog walks to overnights has been a great experience and that's why I continue to do it. The bond I have with the animals I take care of means a lot to me. Weather isn't a issue for me I am used to all types weather over the years. I used to be a husky owner and hope to one day have a husky again :) M-Friday: 6pm- 9pm Sunday: 9am-9pm Fridays-Saturdays: overnights I am open to other days and times to walk or over night, just shoot and ask ;) I respect people's homes as if it was.my own. I always take off my shoes and make sure to never leave a mess behind, that includes dishes, and bedding. I believe in the respectful privacy of one's home.


18. Holly M.

“Holly M. is amazing! She is the best pet sitter I have ever hired. It is very clear how much she loves animals and how much mine love her. My dog is initially apprehensive around new people, and Holly knew exactly how to handle it. She is so friendly and easy to work with, and she is reliable, trustworthy and she goes way above and beyond. Lulu can't wait to see her again! I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”




19. Alexandra J.

“What a wonderful cat sitter. Alexandra is an excellent pet sitter. We have a timid cat, yet she was able to sit on our couch and pett her. She was responsible for giving our cat pills for asthma and never missed the correct days. Our cat Mocha loved Alexandra taking care of her!! Can't say enough!!”


20. Vincent G.

“Vincent was a very attentive sitter and took great care of our cats. One of our cats got sick while we were away. He was in close contact with us regarding his condition and also reached out to our vet to get their advice. I can highly recommend him as someone who can be trusted to look after your pets as he would his own. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him as a sitter again.”
