Doggy Day Care in Old Saybrook

“Our dog loves Lauren. She was so attentive to Stuart . Many walks , has a very nice dog who loves to play with our dog . We will call her again.”

“What a great find! We needed to leave our dog while we visited the Mystic aquarium. Nastia was close by with easy drop off and pickup; had great communication before and during, showed us photos of how our dog was doing, played with him outside and got cozy with him inside… the perfect sitter!!!”

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!

“My dog and I both got very lucky finding Terry immediately after moving to Connecticut. She’s incredibly kind and caring towards my special needs pup, and always considers his comfort and requirements. Her communication with me is also excellent, asking for any updates each morning and giving great reports at the end of the day. I highly recommend her.”

“Ariel was great! She has an amazing set up for dogs with lots of space to play on her property and a dog park within walking distance. She is flexible as well which was so appreciated as we were from out of town. Would absolutely use her again if we are in the area. Our dogs had fun!”

“Mary Jo watched my dog and my sister’s (both anxious seniors) over the holiday weekend for daycare. We gave her weird hours and she accommodated us regardless, despite having little ones of her own. Drop off and pick up process was quick. It was late when we picked up so when a steel bowl was left behind she mailed it back, which we appreciated a lot. We trust her experience with dogs and are so happy the fur babies were safe and sound while we were away!”

“Mike and Candice are lovers of animals and terrific beings themselves. I have witnessed their care of many animals in many scenarios with consistent patience, grace and dedication. Anyone would be lucky to have them as a part of their furry friends’ life.”

“Anthony is a very charismatic and gentle dog owner himself. He is trusted and liable terms of staying on schedule, being proactive, and giving all his love in the world!”

“Britanny has watched two of my babies, a poodle and a Maltese over the years when we went on vacation to Florida. She is wonderful with them and even lets them sleep on the bed with her kids which my dogs loved!!! I couldn't have asked for a more loving family to watch my babies. I always left for vacation (we went for a month) rest assured that they were pampered and well taken care of. Angela”

About: IG @lauralovesyourdog We love animals! Energetic young humans and 6 year old pug will play with your dog until we collapse! We have a large unfenced yard with lots of sniffing and exploring space. The yard is regularly treated by Tick Ranger (organic and pet-safe tick spraying). Our space for overnight is a large room- crated or uncrated, or are welcome to sleep in the human bed of their choice. Dogs are welcome throughout the first floor during the day. Your dog will feel completely at home at my house or yours! We walk, play and hug. Grooming services unavailable. Unfortunately we can not take pit bulls, pit bull mixes, or border terriers. I am also a caring and experienced cat owner/ caretaker! We have 3 cats of our own (our 17 year old angel Maddy went to the Heaviside Layer June 2021💙) and will care for your cat in your home or ours. Dependable loving care always! And if that wasn’t enough I am also very comfortable feeding/ handling and caring for small reptiles including snakes. We have had our Herman’s tortoise Shelly Clarkson for 2 years and love her to death! Available most days- flexible schedule and I keep my Rover calendar updated. About me: 42 year old single mom, works occasionally as a stage manager and at The Place in Guilford. We hope to care for your furry family soon! *Please note I do have 2 kids (ages 9 and 5). Both kids are very aware and cautious in how to approach new animals but if your dog is not 100% comfortable with kids we are not the sitters for you. Thank you! I build my schedule around my clients. We like to keep a predictable routine for our guests. I am home most of the day most days! We have a partially fenced yard and all guests stay leashed and well supervised while out! Our pug Winston loves to play and snuggle with our guests. My other part- time jobs are seasonal so I am home and available most days November through May. When my seasonal jobs are active I still am able to take 2-3 clients visits a day around them! I am very good with animals and have very very rarely met one that wasn’t interested in being my friend. All of my repeat clients are always very happy to see me! 🥰 I am always cautious and respectful of your pets’ space and yours and always will leave your house cleaner than I found it! I go above and beyond to make sure your pets’ routine is disturbed as little as possible while you are gone and I make sure they are given extra affection (if they want it!) I will not hesitate to obtain emergency care (with your permission) if your pet needs it.

“Joe and Kelly are very caring and loving pet owners. In addition to raising their two year old, they always make sure their 5 year old puppy, Governor, is just as loved and looked after. They make time in their lives to also always watch neighbors or friends dogs and create playdates for Gov, so they have great experience in looking after other pets. They are the best pick for a Rover sitter and will make sure your pet has the best time. They are also attentive to the needs of each animal and know how to give each animal what they need.”

“Thanks for getting some energy out of Echo while we work.”

“Greta is a close friend of mine who has always been an avid animal lover. She has been the proud owner of some of the sweetest, well-cared for cats over the last 15+ years we have known each other. She constantly stays educated on the best brands to give to her cats, whether it’s the healthiest food, the safest litter, or the most engaging toys. She keeps their wellbeing at the forefront of her mind. Greta is a fantastic pet owner and I could not recommend her enough.”

“Carmine watched our 11 year old, special needs, blind shih tzu yesterday for the first time for several hours. It could not have gone better! Our pup is a rescue with severe separation anxiety so we always worry about how things will go when leaving her. It could not have gone better! Carmine was incredible with her - so gentle, kind, caring, and attentive to the details and instructions. While he may be new to Rover, Carmine has a great deal of experience with pups - rescuing, caring and training them. We HIGHLY recommend Carmine for any of your pet care needs. We definitely plan to use him again soon. THANK YOU CARMINE! YOU ARE AWESOME!”

“We had Chandra care for our golden doodle puppy for a weekend. She is great with our dog and keeps in contact which helped us be able to relax on our trip! We will defy be using her services again!”

“Heidi has done a great job providing superior pet care service for out 2 corgi's Lexi & Max. They love her and look forward to her visits while their parents vacation! She is a great provider. You and your furry family members will take great pleasure in having her part of the extended family!!!!!”

“Great individual that was very caring of my pup. He taught me a very valuable lesson when walking my dog. Walks are WAY better now. Thanks again Roger.”

“I have watched Amanda handle both dogs and cats. She is sensitive with both, warm and caring, but can also be firm if(particularly a big dog) needs that. Cats seem to sense something in her pheromones as they just melt to her. I watched her work her 150lb Newfoundland in our agility class and she was very consistent and caring with him. I think you would find her a special and more than responsible person with essentially any animal.”
