Dog Sitting Riverside

“Cassidy did a great job with drop in visits for my older kitty while I was abroad. She was timely, adaptable, and VERY communicative. I was at ease that my sweet senior girl was well off, which made my travels more enjoyable!”

About: I have cared for dogs my entire life and have experience with dogs of different ages and needs. I am dependable, attentive, and passionate about animal care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I currently work from home so I have a lot of free time. Why not spend time with furry friends! It’s also a great opportunity to take a breather and get fresh air during daily dog walks. When caring for pets in a client's home, I ensure that their daily routines are maintained to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I also make sure the home remains clean and secure while providing pets with plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I am attentive to each pet's individual needs and committed to creating a safe, loving environment while their owners are away.

About: Dogs have always been much more than pets to me they’re genuinely one of my biggest interests. Along with caring for my own dog, I have professional experience working at a dog boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, needs, routines, and energy levels. I’m especially interested in canine wellness, enrichment, and nutrition. With my own dog, I enjoy making homemade treats, preparing enrichment activities, and finding creative ways to keep him happy, active, and engaged. I bring that same level of attention to the dogs I care for. Whether I’m walking your dog, checking in, or staying with them, I want their time with me to actually add something positive to their day not just meet the bare minimum. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to make plenty of time for pet care throughout the week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine for walks, feeding, playtime, and check ins. I can also discuss specific times and availability depending on what you and your pet need. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, especially in your own home. I’ll always follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, boundaries, or routines. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. 🐾💗 I work full-time during the week, but I’m available for pet care in the evenings after work and on weekends. I’m happy to work around your schedule and provide your pets with plenty of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away.

“Annabel is an excellent sitter; she hit it off with our cats right away, and took great care of them while we were away for 3 nights. We would have her take care of our cats again!”

About: Growing up with a dog taught me how to care for them naturally, and now my fiancé and I are putting our love for dogs into raising our own puppy, a 7-month-old Cockapoo named Kenai! What sets me apart is that I provide the same meticulous, loving routine at home that I would bring to your pet. From daily care to managing his vaccines and vet visits, I know what it takes to keep a dog healthy, safe, and happy. Your pup will get my undivided attention, supervision, and plenty of love! Best Regards, Daniel Pet care is seamlessly woven into my everyday life. As a business owner, I have wonderfully flexible availability throughout the week and also weekends to ensure your dog receives constant attention. I maintain a safe, secure environment by actively supervising pets at all times, keeping hazards away, and following your exact routine. When I am watching your pet, I am as concerned for their safety as I would be for my own dog.

“Tara has been amazing with Klaus during her drop-in visits! She’s always punctual, attentive, and truly cares about making sure Klaus is comfortable and happy. I love that she gives him plenty of attention, fresh water, and keeps an eye on him while I’m away. The updates and photos she sends after each visit really help me feel connected and worry-free. I highly recommend Tara to anyone looking for a dependable and loving pet sitter!”

About: Growing up with pets, it’s something that I’ve naturally always loved. I enjoy seeing my pets pampered and happy, and it’s a joy that I hope to express with other people. I’m currently a student and work part time. Class 9:00 AM - 12:15 on Tuesday-Thursday (in Stamford). I usually work mornings Fri-Sun (in Norwalk) and could get out 1:00 or even 4:00 but never later than 5:00 pm. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex and neighborhood. There’s a lot of space for walking or playing right outside. In my own home, I have a playpen for my pups whenever I’m not home so that I know they’re safe while I’m away.

“We’re so grateful to Claudia for taking such great care of Luna and Beanie while we were away! She did an amazing job not only spending time with them but also keeping everything clean and tidy. One of the cats had an accident outside the litter box, which I was a bit worried about, but Claudia took care of it right away and reassured us that everything was fine. It really gave us peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Thank you, Claudia, for treating our cats and our home with such care!”

About: My love of dogs led me to start a dog walking business when I was only 10 yrs old. Once I finally convinced my parents to get a dog, I was 15 and we ended up with two bichon-malteses who were the loves of my life. As an adult, my career has me traveling frequently so I haven’t become a pet owner, but I continue to dogsit for friends and neighbors because I love the companionship when I’m home. I am committed to providing your dog a comfortable home away from home where they will be well cared for and loved. I work from home Mondays and Fridays so can be available for care for a long weekend (Fri-Sat-Sun-Mon). My availability may be limited based on work travel. I live in a dog friendly building, where there is greenery and walking paths around the building for daily walks and enjoy going for longer walks in nearby parks.

“So grateful for Leigh. She took excellent care of my senior cat for over a week. Mid-trip, my cat started refusing his medicine. Leigh was confident and able to administer his medication regardless (via oral pill, something I myself I have never had success doing - I usually get him to lick it off a spoon covered in churu). She even stayed past her contracted time to make sure that he would receive his medication. Leigh truly cares for cats. She had a very comforting effect on my Pablo, I could see from photos he looked content and relaxed. Thank you, Leigh!!”

About: I've had dogs all my life and since I'm self employed, I have time on my side and find caring for dogs to be very relaxing & rewarding for us both. I enjoy hiking with them or going to a dog park, with the owners permission of course, to let them run around. I also enjoy going to parks and when I see a senior citizen, let the dog say hello. Nothing better than seeing a smile on someones face after playing with a friendly dog. I love to take walks outside and I have a ton of patience when it comes to letting dogs do their business. I always put myself in a dogs mind thinking what I would want to do when outside in the beautiful air. Since I’m self-employed I have very flexible hours to work around a pet owners needs. My commitment to your pet will always come first while on schedule. I will always make sure your pet is properly leashed to protect them and other animals. My apartment complex has over 60% people with dogs so it’s a really pet friendly building and the surrounding area has fenced in areas to keep your dog safe.

About: I have always had a very deep love for animals 🐈🐩and caring for them truly makes me happy, I am a very patient calm and loving person and I treat every pet like family. I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats, including senior pets, blind pets, and pets that need medications or extra care. I also work in healthcare so I have knowledge in first aid and monitoring health conditions which helps me provide safe attentive and responsible care for every pet while making them feel comfortable loved and at home. I currently work part-time in healthcare, which allows me the flexibility to dedicate quality time to caring for pets. Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and I genuinely love making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to create a calm, caring environment where your pet feels at home, with plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and supervision. I’m available on weekends, evenings, overnight stays, and most weekdays after work, and I would be honored to care for your furry family member as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and loving home where every pet can feel safe and relaxed. I have two separate private rooms available if your dog or cat prefers a quiet space to rest, needs time to adjust, or if you request separate accommodations. I also have a very friendly cat who is gentle and comfortable around both dogs and cats. I have reliable transportation, so I can take dogs to nearby parks for walks, fresh air, playtime, and exercise. I have experience caring for senior pets, anxious pets, blind pets, and pets that require medication or extra attention. Working in healthcare has taught me to be attentive, patient, compassionate, and detail oriented, allowing me to closely monitor each pet’s behavior and well being. I will care for your furry family member as if they were my own, making sure they feel loved, comfortable, active, and stress-free throughout their stay.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I’m an animal lover who understands that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to following your pet’s routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or extra cuddles. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently part time working! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because animals are a big part of my life. I make time each day for feeding, playtime, walks, attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. Since I have two cats of my own, I understand the importance of keeping a consistent routine and providing companionship, even when owners are away. I’m able to incorporate pet care into my schedule by dedicating time for visits, walks, check-ins, and giving each pet the attention they need. I enjoy spending time with animals and love being able to provide reliable, loving care for pets and peace of mind for their owners. I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while respecting their normal routines. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, playtime, walks, and any special needs their pet may have. I understand that pets feel most comfortable when their routines stay consistent, so I do my best to make the experience as stress-free as possible. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, calm space where they can feel comfortable and receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Whether at my home or a client’s, I treat every pet like they are my own and make sure they feel safe and loved.

About: Dogs have been my world for 15 years. I've worked in daycares, training facilities, grooming, shelters, and now I focus on providing reliable walks and personalized care. I offer neighborhood walks during the week, and on weekends I also offer 90 to 120 minute off-leash adventure hikes for the weekend warrior dogs that love to explore and need to burn off some energy! Every visit includes photos, updates, gps and plenty of attention! Dogs are what i do! And because this is what I do professionally, I’m able to provide consistent scheduling and care, building relationships with your pup! Almost any given day you can find me working with dogs of all sizes and energy levels! I primarily provide care through structured outdoor hikes rather than in-home services. When working in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a calm, controlled environment.

“Kenisha is excellent! I would definitely love to use her again. She is timely and responsive. I came home to a very happy pup!”

About: I grew up with a dog for most of my life, and I have recently gotten a new puppy who is almost 1 years old now!

I recently began volunteering for walks at the Lucky Dog Refuge here in Stamford. I currently work full time 8-5 but available for anytime after 5. I am also available any time of day on most weekends as well! I will make sure your pup feels safe and happy when I enter your home. I will follow any and all instructions you may have for me!
