“Hallie was fantastic with my boy, Mac! She kept him company at my house overnight and kept us updated through the night. Mac can be a bit difficult in the rain and Hallie kept him safe and sound haha!”

“Elvia did an incredible job house sitting for our dog and cat! I had such peace of mind while away because she was punctual, communicative and great with our pets. She followed all instructions and had no problem giving pills to our cat. We came home to happy animals and a clean home. We look forward to booking her again!”

“Emma did an amazing job taking care of our almost two year old pup. She clearly has a natural ability with animals and put my mind at ease from the moment we met her. She was great at absorbing and following our directions and was very communicative during our trip, sending lovely updates and photos. Our dog was clearly and well cared for throughout and we have already booked Emma for another getaway. Very happy to have found her!”

About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was a baby and have cared for friends dogs as well. I love them so much! All breeds and sizes My schedule changes from time to time since I am currently waitressing as I look for my next full-time position. This is helpful as I have open afternoons and mornings quite often. I live and take care of my grandmother in a gated community. Great for walks and is very clean and quiet. There are plenty of owners who walk their dogs around. Can be avoided if your dog doesn’t like others!

“Shannon went above and beyond to care for our pups, was super communicative, and handled a last-minute health issue with one of our dogs like a pro. She took fantastic care of our house as well. Highly recommend her for your dog/house sitting needs!”

“I am so glad we went with Katharine to take care of our dog while we were away. She was very thoughtful, caring and asked the right questions. You can most certainly trust Katharine with your pet, and home should you need care in the form of house sitting. Communicative and professional, we would look to hire again. She was terrific”

“Chris did a great job taking care of my dogs while i was away on a work trip. We did a meet and greet beforehand where he asked a lot of good questions. During the stay he kept me closely updated on how my dogs were doing and sent a lot of pics which was nice. Would definitely recommend. Professional and a big dog lover.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages through walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’ve cared for my own two family dogs as well as pets for multiple families, so I’m comfortable stepping into different routines and environments. I also worked in an emergency veterinary clinic in an administrative role, where I was around a wide range of pet personalities and situations. That experience helped me better understand animal behavior, stress signals, and the importance of clear routines and communication between owners and caregivers. I’m reliable with following instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and administering medications when needed. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. My approach is to match each pet’s energy—whether that means calm companionship or active play—while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is always to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel at ease until you return. My schedule is built around a full-time job, working Monday through Friday from 7–4. I’m available early mornings, evenings, and have the most flexibility on weekends. I can occasionally do midday check-ins depending on my workday, and I’m open to walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m reliable and do my best to accommodate requests with some advance notice. My goal is to provide consistent, dependable care that fits smoothly into both my schedule and your pet’s routine. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine while caring for them in the client’s home. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific care guidelines to keep pets consistent and comfortable. I’m respectful of the home and make sure everything is kept clean, secure, and as I found it. I’m very mindful of doors, gates, and leashes during walks and visits to ensure pets are always safe. My approach is calm and attentive so pets feel at ease while their owners are away. My goal is to provide dependable care and give owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands.

“Oscar did a great job watching our high energy one year old pup for a week! He was very responsive each time I checked in and kept the house clean. He definitely made our vacation much easier.”

About: Dogs are my world! I care for five of my own, groom, train, and teach tricks. I love dog sitting for friends and family, making sure every pup gets playtime, belly rubs, and lots of love. From wiggly puppies to wise seniors, I keep tails wagging and spirits high! Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I care for my own dogs every day through feeding, walking, grooming, playtime, and basic training. I also regularly dog sit for family , so I’m used to planning my schedule around pets and making sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and care. The pups I watch will have their own cozy space in my room with a fun playpen and lots of toys! They’ll get plenty of love, attention, and playtime. My own dogs stay downstairs, but if the owner is okay, their pup can safely hang out and play with my friendly fur babies. Every dog gets a happy, safe, and tail-wagging environment while in my care!

About: I have always had pets in life (dogs, cats, rabbit, hamsters, fish) and even adopted a dog to live with me when I was in college. The majority of my experience is with dogs and it spans all sizes and breads (from an 8-pound Maltese to a 70+ pound American Staffordshire Terrier). Over the last few years, I have worked with several animal shelters and opened my house to foster pets in need. During this time I have worked to train puppies and taken care of pets that required special attention due to illnesses. I have recently retired and now have plenty of time to live the dream of caring for and playing all day with your fur children. I live on a pet friendly street (cul-de-sac) and my house is properly secure to keep pets safe (gates, crates if needed) and happily engaged in activities.

About: I have had a dog myself for 10 years now and he has been a blessing for me to really learn how dogs think. Being able to take of him for the last 10 years has given me the experience I need to be able to take care of your pet as well. I currently work full time but I do have the flexibility to go and check on your pet during the day if you are local to me or else I am free after 4pm during the week. I am also free on the weekends from 8am - 8pm. I would also be available for overnight boarding at your home. I always make sure they feel safe, loved and comfortable in their familiar environment. I stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding times, walks and playtime and any specific care instructions you provide as I know that some dogs are very sensitive to any change. I can also provide daily photos or videos so you know they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Janine is a great dog sitter with a genuine love of animals. She is kind, thoughtful, and has excellent communication skills. Janine provided timely updates with photos after each visit. I would recommend her as a pet sitter to anyone and have her sit for my dog again.”

About: I'm Steven, a former science teacher who turned a lifelong love of animals into full-time pet care. I've cared for my own dogs for years (John, a Yorkie, and Lucy, my senior Chihuahua) and have looked after friends' and neighbors' dogs, cats, and small pets for as long as I can remember. I'm Fear Free Certified and Red Cross Pet First Aid & CPR certified, and I'm fully insured and bonded. Teaching taught me patience, routine, and how to read what someone needs when they can't say it in words, which is exactly what good pet care takes. Every booking is handled personally by me, so you'll always know who's showing up at your door. I do this full-time, so your pet is a priority, not a side gig. For house sitting I keep your pet on their normal routine, same feeding times, walks, and bedtime, and I send photo and text updates throughout so you can relax while you're away. I follow feeding and medication instructions exactly (I give my own senior dog her meds on a strict schedule, so I take it seriously). Every booking starts with a free meet & greet so your pet and I are comfortable before anything is confirmed. Since I come to you, your pet stays in their own home, familiar surroundings, their own bed and yard, which keeps them calmest, especially seniors and anxious pets. I treat your home with respect: doors locked, mail brought in, plants watered if you'd like, everything left as I found it. I have two dogs of my own, John, a Yorkie, and Lucy, a senior Chihuahua, so I'm comfortable with everything from high-energy pups to gentle senior care.

About: I have several years of experience caring for both pets and children. While working as a nanny for multiple families, I was also responsible for their dogs, making sure they were well-fed, exercised, and happy. This gave me hands-on experience with daily walks, playtime, and maintaining routines. At home, I am a proud cat owner, so I also understand the unique needs of cats and how to provide them with the right care and attention. I am patient, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether it’s walking a dog, keeping a pet company, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. have a very flexible schedule. Sunday Mondays and Tuesdays I am super available. Most mornings before 10 am I’m free and I sometimes work from home. My schedule is adjustable, I can often adapt to different needs during the week. The care I provide always depends on each pet parent’s instructions, since every animal has unique needs and routines. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them regular walks, fresh food and water, playtime, and lots of attention. Safety is always my first priority whether that means keeping doors secured, watching carefully on walks, or following special feeding instructions. I also keep the home environment tidy and respectful, so pet parents can feel fully at ease while they are away.

About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs—young, old, big, small, pullers, you name it. I will take care of your pets as I do my own. I work from home, so I’m available around the clock for taking care of your pets. I live in the Fairfield County area, so I’m available to help you out with your pets! I live in a house with roommates, but I have a floor to myself. I have a cat at home, so I can provide a feline companion during boardings.

“Leo did an excellent job house sitting and taking care of my two cats (adult cat and kitten). He has good communication, made sure my cats received a lot of attention and love, and took care of our home while we were away for a few days. This was my very first time doing a house sitting arrangement and it was a very good experience with Leo. Thank you for all your help!”
