1. Milena B.
“Yet again we used Milena to watch our dog in our home and she was amazing. He is very anxious and territorial and she is so patient and understanding with him. She’s like the only person he lets into our house. I so appreciate Milena and love that we can use her to watch Bodie and trust everything will go smoothly!!”
2. John K.
“We usually have our dogs with us when we go away, but have had several occasions when we were unable to take them. John is the only person, outside our family, who we've trusted to stay in our home to take care of our girls. We have been able to relax knowing that our pets are safely at home with someone they love. John is a reliable, caring person, who I would recommend to anyone looking for someone to deliver the kind of care and attention your pet gets from you.”

9. Reilynn G.
“Reilynn has been our house/dog sitter for years and I can't imagine life without her. She is punctual, trustworthy, hard working, and a great communicator. Reilynn is always there for our family, even on short notice. The piece of mind she gives us is priceless. The compassion she shows our two pups and 1 kitty cat is wonderful and we trust her wholehearted. We cannot recommend Reilynn's services enough- she is the real deal!”
10. Olivia J.
About: I’m an experienced animal care taker. I’ve cared for animals since a child, including dogs, cats, horses, pigs, goats, cows, sheep, hamsters, fish, and ducks. I graduated from UConn with a degree in animal science and then worked as a veterinary technician for 7 years and have experience with animal training. I currently have my own two dogs and three cats. One of my dog’s had her leg amputated 6 years ago so I’m well versed in special needs animals! I’m available for drop in visits at this point in time! I love to hike and run, so I can ensure your pet gets plenty of exercise I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule so I can drop in during the early mornings, late afternoon and throughout the night. Pets’ safety and happiness is the most important thing to me, as I know how worrisome it is to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I’ll ensure they’re all cared for like my own!
11. Brittny D.
“Truly a pleasure having Brittny watching my cute boy Maxwell, she was well prepared when it came to his medication being taken on time and taking him for a stroll within his constraints. Very professional and communicative as i am worried for my little one, was very impressed and Maxwell loves her as a sitter as well.”
12. Emily M.
“Emily did an amazing job! We didn’t have much time to find a place or person to watch our pets when we went on an impromptu trip, she came in and saved the day. Our pets (2 dogs and 1 cat) seemed to enjoy her company, she sent pictures daily. All around a great experience. Highly recommended!”
13. Heather F.
“Heather house sat and cared for our pups while away for 4 nights this 4th of July. She was prompt, professional and loving with our animals. We returned this morning to 3 happy doggos and a very tidy home, and we are definitely looking forward to using Heather's services again in the future!”
14. Hannah D.
“Hannah is amazing! She is loving, caring and so attentive to our 3 dogs, Luna & DJ our Yorkies and our Boxer Wilson. We highly recommend Hannah as she is also trustworthy and compassionate. Rest assured when you are away, you will not have to worry one bit about your fur babies!”
15. Sydney B.

16. Ailiegh G.
“Ailiegh was super nice and helpful! Our animals loved her :)”
17. Amaya M.
“Amaya was great! Our furries would love to spend time with her again!”
18. June R.
“June has watched my German Shepard dog on multiple occasions. She provides updates on how he is doing, daily. She comes over and plays with him, stays at our house, and gives our pup some human interaction. Our pup is well fed with food and treats. She’s trustworthy, as she is able to have out spare key, and ensures the house is locked before she leaves. There is no one else, other than June, I would recommend on watching our dog!”
19. Eleanor P.
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I am fairly well rounded in the types of animals I have cared for and meeting their needs. I am responsible and take pride in doing the best job possible for taking care of your pets! I am a student and I work part time. My schedule is fairly steady and busy. I tend to have work in the early mornings and classes in the evenings. If your interested I believe we can definitely make something work for both of our schedules! I am committed to meeting you and your pets needs in the comfort of their home. I’m more then happy to do walks! My goal is for your pets to feel comfortable and be well cared for!
20. Alexandria V.
About: I grew up helping run a kennel with my parents. We had, on average, 20 dogs at all times. Helping with the dogs was part of daily living for me. We also participated in showmanship and agility shows. I've had a lot of hands on experience in many facets concerning dog care and a lot of it has stuck with me through the years since I was helping with the dogs at a young age. I am currently in between jobs and hence have plenty of time to love on your babies. I'm going for per diem work so once I am employed, I'll still have time for the true loves of my life. I am a quick learner and flexible so whatever needs to happen for your dog, I can work with or provide. I'm currently providing walks/play dates and at the clients in home care.
