“Victoria is absolutely AMAZING! I feel so lucky to have found her. Gus is an older guy and means the absolute world to me, so I’m incredibly particular about who I trust with him. Victoria is kind, reliable, communicative, and so genuinely caring with him. I have complete peace of mind knowing Gus is in such wonderful hands. He absolutely adores her — and so do I! Could not recommend Victoria more highly! ❤️🐾”

“Ashley and Mauricio were wonderful with Emerson. They treated him like he was their own and made sure he had a fun, safe outing. He came back happy and tired in the best way. I really appreciated how kind and communicative they were throughout. I’d gladly have them take Emerson out again, highly recommended!”

About: I have always been an avid animal lover, especially a dog lover, and I have always owned dogs. I started dogsitting after I graduated from college to make some money, and I immediately fell in love with it. Being able to provide a loving environment while you're away is very important for the animals, and I strive to be the best at it. My skills include dog sitting, walking, playing, and cuddling. I will also take great care of your home and treat it with respect. I also think it is important to keep the client informed of what is going on so I do like to check in. I have experience in both dogsitting and house sitting and this would let me showcase that. I currently own a Cat and turtle and feed them daily. I also clean the litter box every two days. I also help clean the turtle tank. I would follow the walking schedule for each dog and also adhere to the feeding guidelines. For a cat I would also follow the feeding guidelines and cleaning.

About: I work from home, so I’m often available throughout the day! I’ve grown up with dogs, including a black Lab who was part of my family for many years until we sadly had to say goodbye. I currently have a rescued black Lab, Toddy, from Kentucky, who I’ve had for four years now. He is my bestest friend and is pretty much attached to my hip! We also sent him to a training camp, so I have experience with e-collars if training needs to be reinforced on walks. I also foster puppies with Fetch Rescue, which has given me experience handling dogs with a variety of temperaments, personalities, and needs. Overall, I’m just a major dog lover and would love to help anyone in a pinch who needs a dog walker! I currently work from home so I often am available throughout the day! Mornings between 8:30-10am are fairly difficult but can sometimes make work as my meetings move around. I do not have a fence at my apartment but always make sure her dogs are a leashed before opening the door. Happy to take care of Dogs at someone else’s home In which I would respect like it is mine as I would want the same! I keep a camera in my house so totally respect if someone else would to the same!

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. * Extended stays: Additional charges apply when pickup extends the start time on the first night of the stay. 2–8 extra hours: $22.50 (50% of my $45 rate) More than 8 extra hours: $45 (100% of my rate) * Additional Care Requirements: My standard boarding rate covers routine feeding, walks, companionship, and everyday supervision. Dogs requiring substantial additional care, including frequent indoor accidents, repeated diaper changes, extensive cleaning or laundry, or other time intensive assistance, may incur an additional care fee starting at $10 per day. The final rate will depend on the level of care required and will be discussed and agreed upon before the booking is confirmed. Please disclose all relevant care requirements in advance so I can determine whether I’m able to accommodate your dog safely and comfortably.

Any additional fee will be communicated and agreed upon before the booking is confirmed. 20% of $45 = $9 extra per night 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 couldn’t recommend her enough! My cats and dog absolutely love her, and you can tell she genuinely loves animals and cares about them. She’s super responsible, trustworthy, and reliable, which makes it so easy to feel comfortable leaving your pets with her. She also loves staying active and is looking to walk more dogs, so if you’re looking for someone who will give your dog lots of attention and love, I definitely recommend Shayla! 🐾❤️”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, I currently have have one dog, a pittie lab mix, and I love taking care of her. Happy to work with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I work a full time job that is remote. Advance notices are appreciated for cancellation. I can do same day booking if it’s between 12-1 or outside of regular office hours. Would love to work with your furry friends. I have a dog and a dog friendly apartment with lots of space for walking in private grounds. I take dogs on walks with plenty of treats for active training.

“Daniela was reliable and on time for all of our walks. Her communication was fantastic letting me know when she was on her way and sent pics of the walks. I would hire her again.”

About: I grew up in a home with a revolving door of dogs, cats, and even rodents! This instilled in me not only a love of animals but a love of making sure every pet I meet and care for lead healthy and happy lives. I have raised, sat, and boarded dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I also now work at a professional doggy daycare/hotel that is connected with a vet office so I am learning more every day! I work at an animal boarding facility so my hours are a bit different every day meaning there’s a nice variety of life for the animals I visit but I always ensure that I have enough quality time with each pet. I make sure to know the pets needs (medical, physical, emotional) and build routines and safety from there! For client homes I always make sure to leave the house (and pet!) as clean as possible, especially after any indoor playtime!

“Gigi is a fantastic dog walker who takes great care of my little Henry! Would absolutely recommend her services.”

Zach T.

About: I’ve had dogs growing up. As an adult I have had cats and dogs, many of whom had special needs. I have had two blind cats and cats and dogs with various chronic medical conditions. I also have a veterinary assistant certificate from Norwalk Community College and I have worked as a vet assistant. I am retired for now. This leaves me time to focus on your animals. I can do sleepovers as well as daily walks and home visits for cats. I cannot take pets in my home but can do walks and sleepovers in a clients home. If an owner has a fenced in yard and the dog likes going out in the yard I would go with the dog and not leave the dog unattended. If the dog is used to walks we would walk.

“Kelly is great. Zeek I can be a handful. He loved his walk. I will definitely be booking Kelly again.”
