Dog Sitting Plainville

“Sam visited our pups on a long day and the pups seemed to really love seeing a friend! There was lots of pets and cuddles and playing, and the photos Sam shared showed our dogs having a grand old time during his visit. We’re so grateful for Sam!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes. I often pet sit for puppies only a few months old, and cared for my senior girl as her mobility decreased. I have also taken care of dogs that followed strict diets and medication routines. Providing the care that your dog requires to keep them happy and healthy is my priority! Whether they prefer to take it easy and chill on the couch, or go on long walks and play fetch for hours, I will adapt and ensure your pup is happy. I am currently finishing up my master’s degree, and am doing my internship part time during the week. My schedule is flexible for the days that I provided availability, so I am happy to adapt to your needs! I am happy to follow the safety guidelines and routines that you have set for your pet. I have a fenced in yard at my home for my pets, and they roam in and out all day. However, I have also watched pets without a fenced in yard that needed to be leashed when they go outside so I am happy to adapt and supervise your dog just as you would! If you prefer to crate your dog when they are indoors, I will happily do so as well so as to not impact your pet’s sense of normalcy and the rules they need to follow. If you prefer your dog to be alone on walks, I’d be happy to walk them in places where there are few other people or dogs around so that they feel safe.

“This was my first time having anyone dropping in on my dogs. While it was a tough first visit for my girl Buffy, Patricia was patient with her and tried to be her friend.”

About: I grew up in a household that couldn't have pets due to severe allergies within the family. I've always had a strong love for animals of all kinds, and it was always such a bummer not being able to bring an animal home to care for. That never stopped me from pet-sitting though. I've watched over a range of ages, from puppies and kittens to sleepy sweet seniors. I also currently work at a doggy daycare, something I love to do during my time off from my full-time job. It's given me an incredible amount of insight into animal behavior and specifically canine body language. Our pups are always communicating with us. We just have to know what to look for. I'm always down to take your companions on adventures, because an enriched and fulfilled dog is a happy dog, whether it's hiking, sniffing around a new neighborhood, or learning to play a new game. If adventures do occur, I have a variety of car seat sizes available to keep your pups safe and secure if need be. I have an American Red Cross Certificate of Completion for Cat and Dog First Aid (expires: 08/30/2027). Copies can be distributed upon request. I currently work full time at a hospital, 7 days on and 7 days off. I'm available most mornings to drop in and hang out with your furry friend(s)! Whether it's for a cuddle, a potty break, a walk around the neighborhood, or even a car ride and a hike for the more adventurous, I'm open to all activities. My availability is limited to mornings at this time, but during my weeks off I can offer more hours. I'm happy to discuss that further if necessary! Truthfully, my schedule is not the most consistent, however I can guarantee it'll be made up for in passion and genuine companionship for your beloved furry friends. I'm willing to take on same day bookings; I understand that life can get hectic and emergencies happen. My available days will remain that, available. While I am not currently boarding in my home, I'm more than happy to drop in on your little one(s). Your house rules apply, and detailed instructions would be incredibly helpful in ensuring your pet gets its needs met while you are not home. I can and will happily provide frequent updates (or less if that is your preference). Meet & greets are required prior to confirming bookings for house sitting or long term bookings. It's to ensure that I am able to obtain all the information required to properly care for your pet.

About: I’ve been walking my family’s dogs for almost a decade now - a high energy Brittany spaniel & a very large husky/shepherd mix. 7 years ago I rescued a German shepherd/pit bull mix (Layla) who I’ve trained extensively and take on daily adventures. Then, a year ago I rescued Dixon (a German shepherd/Australian cattle dog mix) and he’s been reactive to humans & dogs alike. I’ve completed extensive training in classes with him alongside professionals. I’ve taken that experience and can apply many basic training concepts to dogs of all sizes/ages. I’m currently available throughout the work week at any time (as an educator on summer break). As of September 1st, I will be available from 2pm into the early evening. Book early to save a spot right at 2! I know a wide variety of trails/walking spots in the local area, so your pup will always be enriched & happy! I make sure to carry some kind of dog deterrent (PetSafe SprayShield or Pet Corrector) in case of emergency, and try to engage in positive reinforcement training throughout walks. This looks like rewarding the dog(s) with treats when they check in with me, stay in a heel, or keep loose tension on the leash. Within your home, I’ll always change/refill the water for the dog(s) after the walk.

About: I have taken care of my pets for years, mainly cats, but I have experience with dogs as well. Either way, I love both the same! I am able to administer medications, follow diet guidelines, and take care of accidents that may occur. And most of all, I can provide a cuddle or snuggle and unconditional love for your fur baby or babies! I currently have a part time job, but will be able to take care of animals full time soon! For now I can take care of animals Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Sundays. I have one cat at the moment, I have helped to take care of him along with my parents for over 11 years. In recent years, as he ages, he has needed more medications which I have helped to administer, he is on a special diet and he also has some tummy troubles occasionally that I have helped to clean up. I also had a second cat that I took care of at the same time who needed a lot more care. He was a small, sensitive Siamese who was extremely overbred and who suffered from a lot of stomach issues. The two cats didn’t get along so the Siamese ended up living mainly in my room and our other cat had the run of the house since he had arrived in the family first.

“Lauren has been very responsive throughout the booking process, flexible as our work schedules change, prompt, and most importantly, our puppy loves her! I would highly recommend her for pop in visits and/or walks.”

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and sizes—from a gentle giant Mastiff to smaller dogs with daily medication needs. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a long walk/ hike, playtime, cuddles, meds, or just a loving companion, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I’ll provide dependable care and keep you updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I’ll give your pet the same love, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I work part time caring for plants and helping with the on-site pets at my job. It’s a small company with a lot of flexibility so most of the time it’s easy to customize my schedule. If you need care in my home, I have a good set up with spaces that can be closed off if you have a shy pet who prefers quiet. As far as outside playtime for dogs, I have a good sized yard and live in a great neighborhood with sidewalks. I’m also able to go on hikes with your dog if that’s their thing. I’m comfortable coming to your home and keeping your pet’s routine as usual if that’s your preference.

“Thank you so much for taking care of the kitties!!! You kept me in the loop and up to date on their status and behaviors. With both kitties having medical issues and needing special care, I appreciate the attention to detail and additional time you took to make sure everything was just right. Thank you so much!!!”

About: Works at doggy daycare, which includes boarding and grooming! Also have had 2 dogs, one small, one big! I would pay attention to your dog’s needs and preferences! I currently work part time, but I have enough time to fit in more time to care for your pups! I’m seeking more experience working with dogs and would love to care for any pups I can! I am a very loving and caring to my dog! He’s a sweet American Pitbull Terrier mix. He is very well behaved on the leash and very responsive when giving commands. I like to make sure I have control over the pup to ensure smooth walks and to ensure the safety for me, but most importantly for your pup!

“Meaghan responded quickly to my short notice request for a drop - in visit on the weekend She arrived on time and communicated well. I would definitely recomment her.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. Family members, friends, neighbors, etc. have always had pets and have relied on me to take care of them for periods of time. I work on a hybrid schedule, so I am home most Mondays, Fridays - Sundays all day. When I am in the City working I have breaks where I can walk dogs that are close by as well. I don’t have any pets in my home, I live with my fiance who has grown up owning multiple dogs at a time. We have no children in the home either. We live in a townhouse with a front and back yard.

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since I was a little girl, whether they were my own pets or the pets of neighbors, friends, or the dogs at my daycare job. People know they can rely on me especially when it comes to their pets, because I know that to most people, their dog or cat is seen as an important member of the family and they should be treated as such. I am very capable of this as well as seeing to your animal’s needs, including but not limited to: playing, exercising, grooming, bathing, feeding, training, and petting. At the moment, I am working at a doggy daycare and learning to train dogs. I have available on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays but I will become more available soon. I will play with your pet and create a safe way for them to play. I will make sure your pet is healthy, happy, and safe. I will respect your property and privacy and make sure I follow your instructions to the T.

“Payton is honestly one of the best pet sitters I’ve ever came across. I am so happy and grateful that I found someone as trusting, kind, caring, and very loving towards my animals. I have one dog that is very anxious and scared of people, as well as other dogs. He warmed up to her right away and seemed so calm and happy when we golt home. Paton definitely is a gem she kept in contact with me sending me pictures and letting me know how the dogs were doing. She is so attentive, came on time and always kept me informed. She is lovely with animals and we are looking forward to her sitting for us in July. Thank you for treating my anxious dog with such care and love. I also appreciate her going out of her way and putting out packages inside when it was raining outside.”

“Cheyana responded quickly to my last minute request and set up a Meet and Greet for later that day. Cheyana came promptly as scheduled and took my dog for a nice walk. There were no issues and my dog was really happy!!! Would definitely hire Cheyana again!”
