House Sitting Roxbury

“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!”

“We were fortunate to have Dana house sit for us on relatively short notice. She watched our 13 year old dog and 2 cats. We received updates and came home to some happy pets and a tidy house.”

“This was our 2nd time having Oscar come to our home and take care of our pets. We had an even BETTER experience this time around!! The confidence we had to leave for 2 full weeks was wonderful and empowering. A well deserved vacation was accomplished because Oscar is a trustworthy young man, who our finicky dog LIKES! Hoping Oscar will be available in the future - he's the best!”

“Jessica was outstanding. Super friendly during our meet and greet. Our trio of two cats and a pup took to her right away and we never looked back. Jessica sent tons of great updates via cute photos and videos, she left our home in pristine condition and we would gladly ask her to sit with us again without hesitation.”

“Alexandra was great! We left her with our 10 week old kitten and she did an amazing job of keeping him entertained and out of trouble. She sent us lots of updates and went above and beyond to make sure that Bergamot was well cared for. We'll definitely be using her again.”

About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of dogs and cats, including pit bulls, golden retrievers, poodles, senior dogs, and tabby cats. I’ve also cared for pets with medication and dietary needs, including both oral and injectable medications. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Whether that means a long walk, plenty of play and attention, sticking closely to their feeding routine, or simply giving a nervous or senior pet some extra patience, I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs. I’ll keep you updated with how your pet is doing and treat your pet with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I currently work evening shifts at my family’s restaurant in Darien, so I’m generally available for pet care during the mornings and afternoons, as well as some evenings. My work schedule does not interfere with housesitting, and I’m able to provide attentive care throughout the day and overnight. For walks and drop-in visits, I’m happy to work around my evening schedule and coordinate times that work best for you and your pet. I have a fenced-in yard and a very docile and friendly golden retriever. She’s 11 and gets along with every animal she meets. When taking care of a pet at client’s homes, I prioritize leaving it in the same or better condition than I found it.

“Shannon was a great sitter for our holiday weekend out of town! She is very friendly and responded quickly. She sent a bunch of photos which made us feel more at ease leaving our babies at home. She also helped watering the flowers and garden outside. We are happy with her service and would gladly hire her again.”

About: Having grown up with dogs my entire life and currently caring for 10 rescues of my own, I’ve gained extensive hands-on experience with dogs of different breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve cared for large, active breeds such as German Shepherds and Labrador Retrievers, as well as Bluetick Coonhounds and mixed breeds. I’m familiar with the different needs of energetic working breeds, playful retrievers, and scent-driven hounds that love to explore on walks. I’ve also gained valuable experience caring for rescue dogs, including those who may be nervous, shy, or still adjusting to new environments. I understand that some dogs need extra patience and reassurance, while others require plenty of physical activity and mental stimulation. My experience includes caring for energetic puppies, maintaining consistent feeding and walking schedules, reinforcing basic routines, and providing extra attention to older dogs who may need a slower pace. What sets me apart is that caring for multiple dogs with different personalities and needs is already part of my daily life. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they receive individualized care, attention, and affection! Caring for dogs and cats is already a big part of my everyday routine! With 10 rescue dogs of my own, I’m very familiar with balancing feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure every dog gets the individual attention they deserve. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits throughout Fairfield County and am happy to work with your pet’s existing schedule. Whether your dog needs a midday potty break, an energetic walk, some playtime, or extra companionship while you’re away, I’m here to help! I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I do my best to keep their routines as familiar and comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! Having experience with multiple rescue dogs has taught me the importance of understanding different personalities, recognizing body language, and respecting each dog’s individual boundaries. When caring for pets in your home, I make it a priority to follow their usual routines, including feeding instructions, walking preferences, and any specific care needs. I’m especially mindful of dogs who may be nervous around new people, reactive to other dogs, or easily overstimulated in unfamiliar situations. I always make sure doors and gates are secure, leashes and harnesses fit properly, and walks are appropriate for your dog’s age, energy level, and comfort. I also love sending pictures and updates so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and receiving plenty of attention while you’re away!

“Nicole recently watched our dog, Otis at our house. Otis is nervous around new people and she was very good with him until he got used to her. She was very respectful and responsive. Would book again!”

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!

“Dan did a very good job watching my son’s dog and our cat and home. My son’s dog, Lani, became sick late one evening. Dan took the initiative to take her to the vet to make sure she was ok. Lani needed some medication and is now on the mend. I would certainly recommend Dan to dog and house sit.”

“First time booking Bri and have already booked her again. She’s so kind with my dog Syd and was very attentive to her needs. And Syd loved her! When Bri was leaving, my dog was ready to leave with her!”

“Kelly did a great job taking care of our two cats! Followed instructions and easy to communicate with. Booked her last minute and it worked out great. Will definitely be using her in the future to take care of our girl :)”

Molly T.

“Josh did a fantastic job with my pups while I was away. He is experienced, reliable and is very caring and attentive to the dogs. I couldn't leave them to just anyone since one of my dogs has special needs and Josh made sure he followed somewhat complicated instructions for medication and feeding. I am grateful to have found Josh. I trust him implicitly and will ask him to come back.”

About: I haven taken care of dogs and cats since I was 14 years old, and have always had a dog or cat in my household growing up. I grew up with a 110 pound Rhodesian Ridgeback and now have a German Shepherd/Husky mix. I also have a cat at home and am comfortable taking care of cats. I have a lot of experience with dogs over 50 pounds and am comfortable with any size. I have had friends parents throughout high school ask me to care for their pets during vacation. I currently dog walk throughout the weeks for different families, and house sit often as well. I have included pictures of some of the dogs I have taken care of. I work from home and am very flexible when it comes to days and times. I am also able to work remotely from your home. My pet care is done in the clients home. I try to keep the pet comfortable in what they are familiar with in order to stick to their current routine as well.

“Raquel was more than we could have hoped for. She is kind and professional, caring for our two dogs for five days/four nights at our home. She sent so many photos of them eating, playing, and sleeping, and kept in communication with us the entire time. She is perfect! FIVE STARS!!!!!”

“Laura took our 3 year old Corgi Jack into her home and did an incredible job taking care of him. She is so responsive and a natural with dogs. She treated him like her own and sent us updates and pictures several times a day. She is very active and took Jack on long walks and even introduced him successfully to another dog he became friends with while we were away. We will trust Laura with all of our dog sitting needs in the future and would recommend her to anyone!”
