Dog Sitting in Plainville

“Priscilla is so fantastic with our boys. We had to leave earlier than expected, and Priscilla was able to accommodate us with just a few hours notice. Our boys are so happy when Priscilla care for them. Recommend her without reservation!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Drake ]took amazing care of our pups while we were away—providing regular updates, photos, and making sure our dogs felt loved and comfortable. It was clear from the start that he genuinely cares about animals. Our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone responsible, kind, and trustworthy!”

About: Your custom care is here. I’ve taken care of German Shepherds and small teacup poodles. Let me know what you need and I will do my best! I’m a full-time teacher so I get out of school at four so I can walk your dog then. I work in Hartford so I can also let your fur baby out on my break. Let me know if you need me watch or sit any of your pets over the weekend. Blessings! I live in a large condo association with lots of paved areas to walk. Some elevation and other friendly dogs around here. There’s a large vacant parking lot if they want to throw a ball or frisbee. There is a trail nearby if they want to walk in the woods or on rocks and dirt.

“Thank you Grace!! Grace was very responsible and loving during her visits in taking care of our kitties and senior puppy! She was always on time and I was stress-free. :)”

About: Hi! I love dogs and treat them as if they were my children. I grew up with dogs in the household. From having a husky, shih-tzu, and now 2 havanese! I have 17 years of experience and I dogsit my family's pets frequently. I work mostly from home allowing me to have as flexible schedule. I take out my own dogs multiple times throughout the day for potty. I can do daily walks as I try to take my own out as much as possible. I have two friendly dogs- one is very playful and loves meeting other furbabies. I live in a townhouse where there's space to take out the dogs in the yard. Your dog will be in great hands! I work mostly from home, so I have a flexible schedule. This allows me to walk the dogs throughout the day and keep an eye on them. I have two friendly dogs, one loves to play! I can crate if desired. I also have 2 levels in my home where I can separate them if needed.

“Our pup was in such great hands with Lacy while we were away! I think Zuzu misses her already - we will definitely be asking her to watch her again :)”

“Elizabeth did a fantastic job in her visits with my cat Star. She did everything I asked of her including a couple of last minute instructions I had while away. She also sent messages with pictures which gave me plenty of piece of mind knowing my little buddy was okay. I highly recommend to anyone looking for someone to watch their pet. Superb job!”

“Magdalena, as always, took great care of our cat, now helping administer a daily pill in addition to everything else. He is clearly very happy when she visits. Thanks so much!”

“Felicity helped us out on short notice when our regular boarding wasn’t available. She got us in for a meet and greet and was able to come for two extended drop ins with our two dogs. She was patient with our skittish dog and got her to warm up to her. She sent great photos and updates and assured us they were safe and comfortable at home. We would not hesitate to book with Felicity again and plan to soon!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting and walking my parents dog for 5 years and have done the same with other friends dogs as well. I love dogs and will gladly help other dog owners take care of there pups in anyway i can! As a teacher, my summers are open and i couldn’t think of a better part time job to help fill the space. I am available Tuesday-Thursday 3pm-6pm until June 10th and after that, on those same dates, 11am-3pm. On weekends i am available 9am-12 noon. I cannot host pets unfortunately due to my condo complex not allowing them. If that policy changes i will gladly host pets in the future.

About: I grew up with dogs! I've taken care of many neighbors' and relatives' dogs, whether I just went to the house to take care of them, had them for the day, or stayed the weekend to keep them company. I currently have Tuesday's and Thursday's available due to my flexible work schedule. Most of the time I'm free from 10am to 3pm, with occasional weekends depending on my visits back home! I currently live in a condo complex but love walking or hiking, as well as playing with dogs. A crate would need to be provided if staying here because Winnie is very well trained and loves being with us so we don't have one.

“Kelsey is wonderful. We knew Kelsey was a good match BUT we were 100% in when our two dogs were instantly relaxed with her . This is not the case more often than not for our Chi mix . Kelsey provides updates when she arrives and based on pictures she sends Milo and Lili are on totally board with their new friend. Even with current higher than normal temps, she is aware of the heat , pavement temp and keeping Lili and Milo in the shade so they do not overheat. Thank you Kelsey! This has been a huge help to us and we appreciate you taking good care of our furbabies. PS our cat, Waffles, seems to be passing on his overly rambunctious love to Kelsey also!!”

About: Who said diamonds were a girls best friend?! Moving away from my pup was easily one of the lows of my college experience! I'm a recent college grad from Temple University and I work in journalism in CT. With this being said, mornings, and evenings during the week, and any time on weekends are great for me! I'm able to care for small to medium sized dogs, and puppies. Whether your dog is rambunctious & active or mellow & likes naps it’s no problem for me. I'm able to feed, play and watch over your dog and I know of a lot of great dog parks:) For your own piece of mind I'll keep you updated around how the day is going, and send pictures by the hour of your furry friend. I'm quick to respond to inquiries so if you have any questions/concerns or last minute requests please don't hesitate to reach out! I have my own cockapoo and his name is Bentley! Although he lives at my parents house I have a lot of experience in basic pet care. I always treat any home as if it’s my own. If you have any specific requests just let me know of course . . .

About: I have had dogs and horses from a very young age and throughout the years have gained a ton of knowledge about how to best care for them and most of all keep them happy and comfortable. From puppies to seniors and special needs dogs I can provide the level of care you expect from a sitter who you are entrusting with your furry friend. Me and my dog Echo love having friends around so the more the merrier! I work a full time job training horses at a barn 5 minutes away from my house which lets me lead a flexible schedule. They are let out before I go to work and mid morning then around noon I am home for 2-3 hours to let them out again and go for a short walk. I get done with work at 5 and then we have endless time for walks and playtime! I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a big open area where they can run around on a lead and acres and acres of places to take them on walks. I have a crate if need be but I prefer to let your furry friends feel comfortable during there stay allowing them free run of the house, beds to sleep on as well as being allowed on the furniture

About: I have been pup-sitting for over 5 years. The best part for me is that I get to enjoy so many different breeds AND personalities. We have a great fenced-in yard and a good neighborhood for walking. And...with a willing pup, we can go for hikes, walks along the river, have a good game of fetch and end the day with a snuggle . Our home is perfect for a visit with hard wood floors, lots of room to rest and play and a jar of healthy treats. We have had lots of visitors including bull dogs, chihuahuas, poodles, labradors, goldens, goldendoodles, bernese mountain dogs, beagles, cavalier king charles spaniels and the mixed-breed mutt. We love them all! And our kittie, MillieBean, she just hangs out and watches it all happen from her private quarters.

“Fed and walked my boys. Thank you for taking care of them!”

About: I got my first dog when I was 12 years old. Her name is baby and she is a Shih Tzu. She’s 16 now and is the most beautiful happy little girl. When baby was eight years old, we got our cat Kovu. Kovu and her bonded very quickly. Kova is a silly and friendly little boy. A stranger can pick him up and he’d let that stranger steal him. When she was 10, we got my sister’s dog wicket another Shih Tzu and he’s about to be six years old and is the cutest sweetest calmest little boy. Then two years ago I was blessed with my beautiful poodle mix arrow. He is a goofy high energy, vocal boy completely different from my other two. All of my dogs are well trained, and my two Shih Tzu’s love other dogs. Mondays and Wednesdays I’m available 10 AM to 5 PM, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays I’m available 10 AM to 8 PM, and Sunday, I am unavailable until after 1 PM due to having church in the mornings. I am very scheduled when it comes to my own pets. I let my dogs out first thing in the morning to go potty around 8 AM, make sure they and the cat have fresh clean water, I give them food, then I let the dogs rest for about 30 minutes and let them out again. I always check my cat litter box to make sure it’s nice and scooped clean. And give it a deep clean once a week or earlier if needed. I take my dogs out every two hours and let them play for about 30 minutes to an hour depending on their energy level for that day, I also give them interactive toys to mentally exercise them, then at 6 PM I feed them dinner, let them digest for 30 minutes, and again take them outside to poop and pee. I will be willing to follow a schedule that the pet owner is comfortable with. I am not argumentative since I am going to be in your home. I will follow the rules that you have in place. I don’t have a car right now, but I’m willing to take lifts to your homes and take your dogs for however long of a walk you need.

About: I have been responsible for pets since I was a child. I currently have two dogs whom I’m the primary caregiver of. Friends frequently rely on me to take care of their pets when they are away. I am currently working part-time and going to school. I am available for pet care all day on Saturdays, Sundays, and Wednesdays. I am also available most nights after 5:00pm. I have a big yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby entertained. I have crates if your pet should require crating. I live in on a Cul-de-Sac that is great for walking!

About: I have a wide variety of pet experience throughout my life -- Dogs (all breeds, sizes, and temperaments), Cats, Rabbits, Birds, and rodents such as guinea pigs, hamsters, etc. My passion and main expertise are with dogs, with prior experience at a doggy daycare, and private dog sitting professionally for 10 years. Aside from working with Rover, I am a freelancer in the video production field, allowing my time to flexible and not tied up to set schedules. When I do get a video gig, I have plenty of lee way to change how the week looks for my dog services. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for play and to get that energy out if needed. I also have a large plastic kiddie pool/splash pad, and a sprinkler for the hotter days and for the water loving dogs. Plenty of shaded areas, and if needed, space inside for dogs who need to take time to relax.
