“Karen was a great dog sitter for our little guy. She sent photo updates, was kind, & we knew our dog was in good hands. We would definitely book with Karen again. Thank you.”
“Jill is great! We did a meet and greet and then later, I dropped my pup off for a full day. Ollie loves playing w her dogs and even met cats for the first time! Jill has the perfect yard for a lot of running and chasing and she even has a kiddie pool out for the dogs. When the weather is bad, she has a room for them to chill out in. We will definitely be using Jill again!!”

About: I grew up with all kinds of animals. If they have four legs, I pretty much enjoyed to be around. Zoos are my place to experience all breeds of life. I currently work from home. This has allowed me to have all the time needed to bond with pets. I also enjoy my 3 acres of space. I want to have it used by any pet who loves to roam outside. Just alot of space to entertain pets. My yard is not all fenced in. However its away from any sort of traffic. Very quite and alot of pet friendly homes. I can assure to put safety first at all cost.
“Thankful that Nala was able to watch my pup for a short time on short notice. Since it was a short time, I didn't get updates but Nala took my pup out for a short walk and gave me a good summary on pick up.”

About: I have taken care of pets ranging from ferrets to cats and dogs. I’ve done overnights at friends and family’s homes and have hosted dogs and cats for a few days to a couple weeks. I currently foster dogs through East Coast Canine Rescue. I’ve fostered 9 week old puppies and adult dogs up to 65 lbs. I can work with your dog on leash training and other manners on our walks. I use positive reinforcement and strong communication skills to make for a fun and relaxing walk or playtime for your dog. I also love cats and would be happy to take care of your cat as well! I am a high school math teacher and am home off and on during the weekend and summer and almost every week day after 3 pm during the school year. I am open to caring for dogs with all types of needs and am very active. I pretty much love dogs more than humans and can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I am a teacher so I am very available on days and weekends in the summer. I am an early riser and could stop by mornings, afternoons, or evenings. I have a five year old dog, Pria, who I leash walk 2 times a day and play with in the yard using an e-collar. I also attend the dog park to help socialize her. She is very friendly and I am also happy to socialize your dog with Pria as well and train them to leash walk together if interested!
“Marie was amazing with our one year-old golden retriever, pup! She asked all the right questions and I could tell when I picked him up that he was very well cared for and well loved. In fact, he was snuggled up on the couch with her husband when we arrived! You can’t beat that! I’d not hesitate to recommend her to anyone and we will definitely be using her again.”
About: Hi there! Thanks for checking out our profile! We love playing with, walking, and being around dogs. Raelynn is a certified (CPDT-KA, FDM-T) dog trainer who pet sits with her extra time, and Sean is a full-time music teacher who is more available in the afternoons and in summer. We tag-team with the dogs that stay with us! We have a large fenced-in yard that your pets will enjoy and three playmates for your pups! We have cared for dogs of all ages and all sizes, and we'd love to hear from you. Even if we are not working on training with your dog, you will be comforted knowing that a trainer is not letting your pup learn or continue any bad habits while they are staying with us. For day-care, dogs will be supervised by Raelynn and will participate in small group play. This gives the dogs a great socialization experience with a certified trainer, ensuring that your pup gets positive socialization experience without being overwhelmed by too many dogs at once! Dogs need to be able to rest comfortable in a crate or pen in between playtime, or for in the case of an emergency and Raelynn needs to leave the house. We are happy to accommodate schedule for your pup! Raelynn is at home most of the day, so I can let dogs out for exercise/potty breaks as much as needed. We both wake up early, so we can accommodate most schedules into our own. We have a large yard that is fully fenced-in. In the home, We have crates and many doors/pet gates in order to keep your pet safe as needed. The only steps in the house are a half staircase leading up from our entrance doorway.
About: I studied animals in Writtle college (work based animal studies level 2). I spent a year working in a doggy daycare and a few months working in a greyhound training kennel with over 200 dogs to take care of. As a child, I helped raise many Italian greyhound puppies because my mother used to breed them. I volunteer at a care farm in the Colchester area every Friday. I have dog walking insurance. I am available most of the time apart from Friday daytime and parts of Sunday when I'm at church. Any other commitments in my life can be moved around to fit in with your schedule. I have a 6 ft fenced garden although my flat does not go directly to it. I primarily work as a dog walker but would consider looking after your pets at my home. I do not smoke or vape and take the safety of your dogs very seriously. My flat is a good size and would therefore be suitable for larger dogs as well as small which would be well entertained and let outside regularly as well as walked.
About: I’ve taken care of family friends and neighbors dogs and cats for over 10 years. Love being able to spend time with them and the opportunity to see them happy. I currently work remote so have time during the day and nights to take care of all animals. Usually busy from noon to four to try and enjoy the back half of a ski day I enjoy taking dogs for walks or playing fetch. I am a very energetic person and feel well suited for any environment with all kinds of pets
“Bev was great and mikes help an added bonus! She truly is a lover of animals as her profile suggested She was so kind to me in my angst over my emotional rescue dog and kept me at ease so I could visit with family up in Connecticut Truly a Christmas blessing!!thanks so much bev and mike!!”
About: I have been a dog owner all my life. I've enjoyed caring for other people's dogs for the last 15 years. I am trained in dog CPR and First Aid. I live on a quiet cul-de-sac road with an ample acre yard to play. I'm happy to support any training efforts. I love to play outside. There are tons of trails nearby to walk/hike here in East Haddam (my dog is my geocaching buddy). My lab would graciously share her swimming spots. Fetch, training, frisbee, you name it! I am willing to transport your dog, if needed. There is usually 24 hour care here in the summer months. When you leave your dog with us, they will be treated like one of the family. Cassie cannot wait to meet a new furever friend, come play!
