Dog Walkers in Putnam, CT

“We had a very chaotic week from an ER visit to the emergence of separation anxiety. Jessica did a great job helping us out and calming our nerves. She was great with our dogs and I would recommend her to other dog parents.”

“It was too wet/rainy outside to walk Gidget, but I kept the appointment time anyway. I wanted to start once a week walks for Gidget to get used to seeing Katie around before house sitting for us. Hubby said that she took the time to get to know her and vice versa. Very pleased with Katie.”

“Jane is really the sweetest and so accommodating. She stays in communication during the walk before and after. Our Pup really enjoys her, so much he couldn’t wait to get in the crate today and have me leave for work so he could go for a walk with her ❤️?”

Renee P.

“Derek was great with Jasper. He was able to assist us with walking him on short notice, and was very responsive and communicative. I would recommend Derek to anyone who needs their pup walked!”

“Sarah and her family are a joy and took such good care of Monty while we were away. We loved the note and photo they left for us at the end of their care. I highly recommend them!”

“Kaitlyn was AMAZING with my dog Mina. Mina is on the older side and has trouble walking sometimes. She took her time with her and Mina got a full walk. I cannot thank Kaitlyn enough for her care and compassion for Mina.”

About: I have worked with dog trainers so I know some training skills needed to help some pups. I also can administer meds if needed. I have had farm animals so I have that experience as well. I am looking to fill some time with some animals because of my love for them. I take care of everything from farm animals to cats. I can watch small dogs at my home. I have gates and a safe environment. I am more than willing to watch pets in the clients home to make them feel safe.

“Marissa is fantastic! Our fur baby instantly loved her. I would recommend her for dog walking.”

About: Because Your Pet Deserves the Best, Even When You’re Away. I will care for your pet small, large, fluffy or feathery when you can't. Sometimes things come up or a well deserved vacation... there is no need when you pick me to worry about your loved pet family. I will treat them with respect, compassion, and love they deserve. I know that they are missing you. I will make sure that they have their own mini getaway when I am with them. This can be a walk, cuddles, or just tossing the ball. I can do stop ins for potty and food.. I can stop in and take them for a walk, or just stop in and play with them. I love all weather and am prepared for anything. Snow, rain, cold or storm. I am a stay at home mom who like any mom I am ready for anything. Last minute appointment (we all know that unexpected things happen. Don't worry about your pet message me), cleanups, accidents, snacks,protective (nothing will happen to your loved one with me), and even fun days outs. I am a mom and I am always ready for anything. It would be a honor to be invited to your home to check in on your loved one. I am extremely flexible and would enjoy meeting your pets. I would always treat your animals as I would want mine to be treated.

“Excellent attitude,.. and excitement about meeting... on time with scheduled walks. Seems genuinely interested in my dogs well being. Thanks Michelle!”

About: Amelia Massey Chorlton Introduction: Hello, my name is Amelia Massey Chorlton. I have extensive experience with dogs, having cared for them practically my entire life. From raising our family dog Daisy, a Golden Retriever, until her passing due to old age, to currently running a doggy daycare from my home, dogs have always been a significant part of my life. Professional Experience: I recently left my position as a manager at a doggy daycare, where I worked for three years, to focus on working from home. During my time there, I gained valuable experience in understanding and managing various dog behaviors and deepened my love for all types of dogs. In addition to my daycare management experience, I have also managed an intellectual disability group home, a position I also left to work from home. Personal Experience: I currently own four dogs of various sizes and two cats. I live in an in-law housing situation owned by my mother, which allows me the flexibility to separate dogs as needed. If required, I can crate my dogs and cats, ensuring that your pet will never have to meet mine if that’s your preference. Facilities: • My home features a fully fenced backyard that is divided into sections, allowing me to separate my dogs from visiting dogs while keeping everything securely fenced. • The backyard provides plenty of shade, a kiddie pool, and access to the garage, which is equipped with water bowls, food bowls, beds, toys, and is climate-controlled with both AC and heating for the colder months. Services: • The option to separate dogs or provide solo sitting for dogs with reactivity or behavioral issues. • Experience with senior dogs, puppies, and behavioral dogs. • Years of experience training my own and other dogs. • CPR trained and capable of administering medication to dogs that need it. Please consider me for your next dog-sitting needs. I am passionate and dedicated, and I promise to put my all into caring for each and every dog that comes into my home. Thank you for your consideration! I work from home, allowing me to maintain a very flexible schedule. I am available for dog sitting, dog boarding, dog walking, cat sitting, cat boarding, and drop-in visits as needed. Additionally, I offer complimentary dog walking services when you book boarding at my home. In my home, I ensure pets are cared for in a safe and comfortable environment. When the weather is pleasant, the dogs can enjoy free access to the backyard, where they can roam freely and even jump in the kiddie pool if they wish. The garage is always open during the day, allowing them to move in and out as they please. On particularly hot or cold days, the backyard is only open for potty breaks. During these times, the dogs stay indoors, with the dog door remaining open for them to access their crates, beds, or toys. This setup ensures they can always find a comfortable spot to relax and play!

“Corinne was great with Marsh! He had a great time on his walk with her, he was pooped!”

About: I’ve done rescue work on the side for a cat shelter, including medical fostering. I’ve worked for an emergency/specialty vet as a technician assistant. I have several reoccurring clients on & off of here. Love all pets! I have a 3 legged kitten and have done specialized care for kittens with eye issues and bottle fed kittens. I have no issues giving meds or helping with prescription diets. I have experience with bearded dragons and other reptiles as well. I can always send pics of my work! My labradoodle and his siblings somehow manage to befriend every dog we take care of and we always love new friends! I have plenty of references besides what is on here as well and there’s some before & afters of foster kittens I’ve done medical stuff with. I have 4 dogs of my own, a dorkie, a chihuahua, a labradoodle and a goldendoodle - we stay very active all the time. Walks, treats & playing, and my labradoodle loves to swim! My Labradoodle enjoys visiting people and it’s not uncommon for us to venture out just for a pup cup or a ride around town. I also have my rescue cats who I love! I’ve worked for an emergency/specialty vet along with a general practice vet and am always trying to further my education! Everyone is always leashed and I take my time depending on the animals abilities/etc when walking or playing. I’m more than familiar with litter boxes and etc and don’t mind spending time with pets. We always have time for socialization and visiting with people- I frequent some businesses that LOVE to see dogs!

About: Hello! I'm Jenny. I've been around animals my whole life from growing up on a farm and owning my own horses to raising puppies and kittens. In 2013, I took and passed a vet-tech certification program through a local accredited college. Although some details may be out of dated the general practices remain the same. I will always respect your wishes as I know you care about your babies as much I care about mine. I also have experience with chickens, fish (tank & pond), horses, reptiles, small animals, and birds. I'm also a huge fan of gardening and plants. I work from home with a flexible schedule. I'm normal able to leave the house by 630/7 am and do a 'last out' (as we call it) at 930pm. And it's always nice to take a mid-day break for a walk. My animals have fairly loose rules but that's because we spent years training. How I care for your animals will be dependent on your requests. However, I would feel more comfortable walking your dog on a leash if you don't have a fenced in yard, and one at time. I'm always ready for snuggles and playtime!

“Maggie had a great time walking with Chrissy! She was so flexible and worked around our schedule. Maggie loved Chrissy from the get go and was very excited to see her! We loved getting photos as well and Chrissy was great at communicating throughout.”

About: Veterinary technician for 9 years and counting. Used to handling all types or dogs with all different levels of energy. Can administer medication if needed. I am currently working part time due to the economy. Available for whole days that may change weekly. Able to do morning and night visits. All dogs will be closely monitored whether they be in a fenced in yard or on a leash. Safety is #1 of the utmost concern.

About: I’ve been caring for peoples plants and animals for over 20 years now. I’m experienced with a variety of animals and sizes including small toy breeds to extra large (lap) dogs (let’s be honest, they’re the biggest babies). I also have experience with cats, birds, horses (and other farm animals), amphibians, reptiles, and even rodents. I’m a lover of all! I currently work full time Monday through Friday until 4pm. I get an hour lunch so if local, I can take your pup for a potty break or play with them briefly at lunch. Otherwise, walking and feeding will be done after 4pm. I listen carefully and considerately to your rules and boundaries within your home. I pay attention to your animals needs and offer patience and true care to each animal I come in contact with. Understanding the body language and nuances with each pet is important. I pride myself in making sure that all living creatures feel safe in my presence. My home is not available for pet-sitting yet (I need to get the landlord on board). But I’m more than happy to come to your home and send pictures of your fur baby to help ease your mind of any anxiety you may have about a stranger being there!
