1. Annette G.
“I’ve never felt so comfortable leaving my dog anywhere. Annette is so kind and loving to all the animals in her care. My dog Hazel had a WONDERFUL time socializing with the other dogs and getting outside on the back porch, which I could see each day on my phone via the pictures Annette texted me. Annette’s boarding and daycare service for dogs has been a great find for us. Thanks, Annette!”
2. Rosemary & Michael W.
“Rosemary was great! Flexible with drop off and pick up and sent frequent communication prior to my reservation and also during my pet’s stay with pictures and updates of the dogs. Highly recommend!”
3. Katie N.
About: I have taken care of my mom’s clients pets. I am always there to be a helping hand when they need it. I have taken care of multiple dogs when their owner is on a work trip or on vacation. I have walked, fed, and played with big and small dogs. *I CANNOT DO SERVICE FOR PEOPLE THAT LIVE AN HOUR AWAY. I LIVE IN NEW MILFORD, CT.* I am an online college student that is experienced with dog sitting/walking. I can do morning and middays during the week. I can also do weekends. I will provide food and especially water at all times. I will make sure nothing toxic or tiny for them to eat is near. I will be near the dog at all times. I will walk and play with them frequently.

6. Samantha & Michael M.
“Great stay!! My pup was very well taken care of and Sam was always in touch with photos, responded quickly when we reached out, and had a great family environment that made our dog feel right at home!! Perfect fenced in yard and house far from the road so we were confident that he was safe the whole time, and supervised too :) thank you!!”
7. Rebecca D.
About: I bond with pets quickly-they sense my fondness for them and I pay attention to the little things, so I sense what they need to be happy. I am working part-time, so I fortunately get to make my own schedule! I can be flexible with what your specific pet needs are. I always go the extra mile because I enjoy animals so much. We have 2.5 acres of land mostly yard and partially woods with walking trails all over. We have a super friendly and playful 2.5 year old neutered Frenchton named Gus who is 40 pounds and enjoys any and all company! We got our puppy Louie in April 2023. He is an adorable almost 1 year old French Bulldog. Our 2 cats are pretty shy of other humans and pets outside of their family-but they love a good petting and join us on walks! We also have chickens for eggs-but they are outside and safely caged. We spend as much time as possible outside enjoying nature and our pets happily join us!
8. Katelyn M.
“Katelyn was everything I ever dreamed of in a dog sitter. She was responsive to my many pre-boarding emails, made my dog very comfortable and welcome in her home, flexible with the pickup time when I ran into a problem getting home at the agreed upon time. My dog didn’t want to leave! Katelyn took some portrait-worthy pictures of my dog and even printed two of them out for me to take home, where they are now displayed on my refrigerator door. I will definitely use Katelyn again.”
9. Rich U.
“Great guy!! Amazing with dogs. Our dog had a blast. He sent us lots of pics and videos to see how much fun they were having. Will be using him to watch our dog every time we go on vacation. Thanks Rich!”
10. Loretta G.
“Loretta took care of our dog like he was her own for the week we needed to be away. Regular updates, lots of pictures, and lots of love. He did so much better than regular boarding and clearly had fun (both with Loretta and her dogs). We really appreciate how well cared for our big boy was, and will definitely be back!”
11. Jessica & Ian K.
“Jessica and Ian did an amazing job taking care of my pup during my wedding weekend! She has never napped so hard when we brought her home! Will definitely use them in the future of all of my dogs pet sitting needs!”
12. Živilė H.
“Zivile H, and her own puppy Scarlet, are AMAZING! Zivile watched our young, energetic English Setter for nearly three weeks—we had only boarded him once before and were not sure how he would do—and Zivile retuned him calm, better behaved, and bathed (with shiny fur!). We now send Douglas back for play dates, because Zivile and Scarlet ensure he has a blast. Douglas comes back to us tired, happy, and clean. We cannot imagine a better pet sitter.”
13. Nicole G.
“Nicole was very good with my dog. My dog needed medicine daily and she was happy to help with that She sent updates regularly and I could tell my dog enjoyed being at her place.”
14. Sarah D.
“Sarah has taken care of my dog (border collie, high energy) on several occasions, and has been excellent. She is very good with animals, and clearly cares for their well-being. This is especially important because my border collie needs a lot of exercise and gets anxious easily. I have also met her two dogs, a blue heeler and a shiba-inu, and they are both well behaved and clearly loved. Sarah is very trustworthy and easy to get a long with, and I highly recommend her services. ”
15. Amy M.
“It's the first time my 6 months old Oliver ( Old English Sheepdog) away from us, we never have a dog walker and I'm a stay home mom for my furry baby so you can imagine how hard it is for Oliver and for me. Amy did such an amazing job taking care of Oliver and she is so understanding and patience. She kept me updated with messages, video and pictures. It can't get any better! I highly recommend Amy.”
16. Christine A.
“Christine and her family were so welcoming to our little crazy pup. She had no issues even when we extended Opal’s stay another 3 days. So flexible, kind, accommodating, and her house and yard is just overall FUN for both humans and animals. Thank you so much !”
17. Erika V.
“As long as I have known Erika she has been very passionate about animals. I have trusted her to care for my pets whenever I am away. The connection she is able to establish with pets is very impressive. After all they do say that a dog is the best judge of character, and they all love her!”
18. Dileidy B.
“Dieleidy did a great job with my little dog! She sent pics and video and had a wonderful energy with my pup. I would definitely book with her again.”
19. Brandie B.
“Brandi took great care of our Millie while we were away on vacation. We loved all of the updates and photos she sent to us. Millie looked like she had a the best time with all her doggy pals. We will definitely use Brandi again in the future!”
20. Leah M.
“Thanks Leah for taking good care of our baby girls on the overnight. They were happy campers.”
