5. Josh A.

“While my partner and I were traveling, we hired Josh to walk our dog while she stayed at my in-laws house. He made a great impression on them, on us, and most importantly, our dog, Willow! She couldn't wait for her daily walk with Josh. Even during a heat wave, he made sure our girl was exercised and stimulated. He dutifully sent us sweet pics of her after each walk that truly made our day. We looked forward to his updates and he really delivered! My in-laws were so impressed with him and said he was an absolute pro - we couldn't agree more. I highly recommend Josh if you are looking for a reliable and experienced dog sitter or walker. He was extremely flexible to our needs. You really couldn't do better than Josh!”


6. Nes D.

“I can't recommend Nes enough! She's reliable, and has excellent communication; she has timely responses and provided great updates which made me feel completely at ease leaving my pup in her care. It's clear how much she cares for animals, and I could tell Percy was well taken care of. Knowing she's someone I can trust makes all the difference. If you're looking for wonderful rover look no further!”

About: I have owned and been around dogs and cats my whole life. I started out working with small animals when I volunteered at the Connecticut Audubon Society when I was a child and teenager. I also worked at PetSmart in the their Pet Hotel doing doggy daycare. While there, I walked, fed, cleaned up after, and watched over groups of dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have also volunteered with Protectors of Animals at their cat shelter for about 2 years now. I have worked with cats of all ages and temperaments. My schedule is very open at the moment. I am able to check up on animals multiple times throughout a weekday and am also available on weekends. I am available to take care of pets in your home, whether you just need me to feed them and let them out a few times a day, or if your pet needs someone to stay with them for longer periods of time. I have reliable transportation in case of emergency. I am comfortable giving pills, but I am not trained on giving injections.


8. Laura D.
“I have known Laura for many years. She is passionate about animals and their well-being. The care she provides for her own pets is amazing. She is an advocate for animal rescue and has supported many causes as well. She is a genuinely compassionate and hard working person. I would trust her with any of my pets without question.”


9. Amanda S.

“Amanda was so great with our dog, Emmie. She communicated from the minute she arrived, took pictures while on the walk and made sure our dog was safe and happy. We will definitely be booking with Amanda again!”

14. Maggie L.
About: I have always loved dogs. I have one dog at the moment and dog sitting fulfills my need for a second dog. I recently lost my first dog, Peekaboo the Cockapoo, and have been heart broken ever since. I do have an amazing dog Moose (3y/o 40# all American brown dog mix) and I don’t want her to ever feel lonely so hosting dogs or going to walk other dogs has been a great way for her to get personalized one on one attention! I love my dogs so much they bring me so much joy we love to take walks around my beautiful neighborhood 3 to 4 times a day we have space to play and beds to lay on and take naps in the sun, we look forward to getting the chance to meet you all soon ! I work full-time from home with a digital marketing career. I am able to monitor my animals all day. Every day we go for 3 to 4 walks around my mile and a quarter neighborhood block. I have tons of space for your dog to be crated or to nap on their bed or to nap on my bed I am very attentive to my animals needs. I typically know that if an animal is out of sight, then they must be getting into some thing so if I see that they don’t want to be near me, we go for a walk I’m always available for a pet or a cuddle in between my business calls. With the nearby trails, I am always out exploring with my animal friends


15. Liza A.
About: I have had a love for animals since I was a kid and in turn my tweens share the same affection for dogs. We have raised our cockapoo as a pup who is now 4 years old. He has been crate trained and uses bells to signal when he needs to use the bathroom. We have a lot of energy and love to give and would like the opportunity to care for your pet! I currently have the summer off and I am available all day for your pets needs. The only time I may be out would be to go grocery shopping or drop off and pick up my tweens for sports. I have a fenced in back yard and a 4 year old friendly cockapoo who loves to play with other dogs. I am also willing to crate your dog if needed or let them roam my home freely.


16. Isabella R.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life! Currently have a dog and a kitty. Can bathe, give medication, walk just about anything. Feel free to reach out! I work part time but have a lot of free time outside of work! Pretty flexible. Depends on what the pet owner is thinking ! Reach out! I have a fenced yard. Dog sleeps in the kitchen on his bed with his food. Kitten sleeps upstairs with me till she gets older. Both are fed on schedule. Dog gets walks. Both get play time of course .
