“Nicole was so great with our cat Pepper! She sent so many photos updates and was super communicative throughout the time watching her. Would highly recommend!”

About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a small kid! If you have 3 pups or more, I just charge for 2! When I turned 17 I worked at a doggy daycare called rover retreat, where I fell in love with taking care of dogs! I went to school in Colorado, my native state, for a couple of years, where I dog sat off and on. I decided to pick my life up and move to the city of Stamford with my to be closer with my girlfriend's family. I love to teach pups tricks and enrich the lives of all animals! Even if your pup is difficult or different, I can work with it:) I am experienced with puppies, seniors, diabetics, pets with medication. I've taught dogs how to run with a bicycle and how to do new tricks like handshake and wait. If you choose me, you're guaranteed someone with lots of experience and a big heart for your furry friend(s). My schedule is currently completely open for your pups' care!! I was in school for a couple of years in boulder, met a wonderful girl, and moved with her out east to the city of Stamford. I doordash other than dog sitting so I can easily accommodate. I watch over the client’s pup and give it all the affection and attention it needs while also maintaining decency and care for the space and all beings and things within.
“These guys were family from the start :D. Jeff walked right up to them to say hi, something he typically doesn't do right away. Jeff picked them, not me, and he couldn't have made a better choice. A+. They were responsive and took pics. Excellent teamwork. Thank you guys!!”

“Aaron has been an amazing sitter for my pets. I have an older lab and he has worked with him on several behavior issues and I see such a dramatic change in my dog! I highly recommend Aaron not only for pet sitting but training as well.”

“Stefanie was absolutely wonderful taking care of my cats! She was very patient, caring, and attentive with them. Every day she kept me updated on how they were doing and sent me pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My cats felt very comfortable and relaxed around her, and that means a lot to me because I really care about who I trust with them. I could tell that she treated them with genuine love and care. I’m very grateful to Stefanie and would definitely trust her to take care of my cats again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone responsible, patient, and loving with their pets! ❤️🐾”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, with experience caring for breeds of all sizes. I have always had a natural ability to connect with dogs and have been comfortable handling and caring for them from a young age. Additionally, I have experience house-sitting and providing care for dogs belonging to coworkers, friends, and family members. My lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs allow me to provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care for every dog I look after. I am currently playing junior hockey, with practices scheduled Monday through Thursday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Outside of those hours, I am fully available to provide attentive and reliable care for your dogs. My availability on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays varies depending on my hockey schedule, but I am happy to coordinate in advance to find a time that works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while giving each dog plenty of attention, affection, and exercise suited to their needs. Having grown up around dogs of all sizes, I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs. I strive to make every pet feel comfortable, secure, and loved while their owner is away. I also keep owners updated on how their pets are doing for added peace of mind.
“Janine was excellent! My apt access is complicated and she was so patient with me and the instructions. Will definitely reach out to her again for cat sitting in the future.”

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. Mild additional cleanup or supervision +$10/day Frequent accidents, diaper changes, and additional laundry +$15–$20/day Extensive cleanup and unusually demanding care +$25/day or a custom quote * Last-Minute Bookings: Bookings requested less than 48 hours before drop-off will be subject to an additional fee based on availability and the arrangements required. 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.
“Katherine was great! She took care of my cat like she was her own! She was extremely communicative and doesn’t hesitate to ask questions if needed. I’m grateful Katherine could pet sit for me so I could relax while I was away.”

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.

“Natasha went above and beyond when taking care of Roscoe. He is a bit of a fearful dog, but he took right away to Natasha and even rolled over for a belly rub, which he never ever has done with a stranger before. She must have some sort of special touch. She is responsible, keeps in constant contact, followed all of my instructions, and Roscoe obviously loved her. We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Sindy was GREAt! Friendly and Very responsive, flexible about timing and last minute needs! She sent us adorable pictures of Loki during her stay <3 We glad we met her and definitely recommend ;)”

About: Hi, I'm Denise and have worked in doggie daycare and pet sitting, including fostering for many years. My full time job pays my mortgage but caring for animals brings me joy. I am professional, polite, old school and give personalized attention to your pooch. I'm available super early weekday mornings, evenings and all day Saturday and Sunday. I currently work full time near home so I can easily get home for potty breaks. Pets will never be alone for more than 4 hours. I always am sure they are leashed before the door is open. While I do not have a fenced in yard, I'm an avid walker so your pets will surely get the steps in. I work a mile from home so mid day potty breaks are easy. I'm a big walker so pups get their exercise and lots of play time at home. I always keep the pups in my care away from other dogs and people for safety. I do not have a fenced in yard but have enough property for a late night quick pee and poop.
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.

Margaret was so attentive and wonderful with our two cats! She truly went above and beyond, providing feedback and making adjustments to ensure everything went smoothly while we were away. Our cats were very comfortable with her and definitely enjoyed her calming presence. I HIGHLY recommend her!

We absolutely love our dog sitter, Michelle! She has consistently been wonderful with our girls, and it gives us such peace of mind knowing they’re in such caring hands whenever we’re away. She goes above and beyond to make sure they’re not only fed and walked, but also given plenty of playtime, attention, and love. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about their happiness and well-being, and that means the world to us. Finding someone you can trust with your fur babies is priceless, and we’re so grateful to have found her! We couldn’t recommend her enough! ❤️🐾

Maria is incredibly responsive, communicative, and reliable. She’s always quick to respond to messages and keeps us updated during and after each visit with our puppy. She provides thorough feedback and does a wonderful job, which gives us great peace of mind.

Maria Helena was amazing! Our cats warmed up quickly to her and she sent us so many amazing photos of our cats while we were away. I’m an anxious parent when away from my cats but this was the least anxious I’ve felt in a while. Really happy to have found such a great person to watch our girls

Nina is absolutely fantastic! Her communication was excellent, and she provided detailed daily updates with pictures. My cat needs special care, and Nina was extremely responsible and paid close attention to detail of the care routine. She went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again!

Kamila was truly the best cat sitter I could’ve asked for. She sent me lots of pictures and details from each visit and went the extra mile to do things to make my cat more comfortable while I was away. I had some plans change unexpectedly and Kamila was extremely accommodating and was able to adjust her schedule to help me out. She was super flexible and kind and I felt much better about leaving my cat knowing she was in such good hands! Would absolutely recommend
