Orion & Alex did a wonderful job taking care of our two corgis. They sent photos with regular updates every day. They thoughtfully brought up any issues quickly. Our dogs seemed very relaxed around them both.

Palma was a wonderful sitter for our Scottie, Pepper! Pepper immediately befriended Palma when she came to meet us, and we could tell Palma was enjoying playing with Pepper. We felt very comfortable leaving Pepper in her hands. While we were away, Palma was very communicative and sent photos of Pepper for us (which I love because I always miss her). She left our house in pristine condition! I highly recommend Palma.

About: I am a trained and certified k9 trainer with experience in basic and advanced obedience, behavior modification, odor tracking and an affinity for stray dogs. I currently foster so the more dogs the merrier. Im in school but my schedule is flexible so I can work around most things as long as I'm informed at least 6 hours in advance. I have multiple sized indoor and outdoor kennels and playpens for your pup. My property is safe and enclosed. I am former military so I tend to stick to strict schedules and have no problem keeping your pup on one if that is what's needed. OR we can hang out on my couch and watch dog training videos...im good with either one. I do training, temperament tests and socialization mostly to make both our time together interesting. Also offer daily pics for your Instagram!

About: I have always loved animals. I treat all animals like my own. I learned to care for cats and dogs(and a variety of other animals) when I was young. Taking care of my own and family and friends pets, furry family members, feeding, bathing, walking, playing, snuggling. I have bottle fed, tended to allergic skin irritations, administered oral medications including chemo therapy. I am looking to make caring for your pets and making a worry stress free experience for you and your pet around your routine/schedule. I have a very open schedule, which makes it easier for me to work around your pets needs. It has worked out very well for me and the pets I have been able to spend time caring for. I will care for your pets in your home. I will care for them like they are my own. Loving, petting, snuggling, playing, walking, feeding making them feel stress free. I will listen to your instructions and follow them for the most personal and relaxed experience with your pet.

Emily did an amazing job! We didn’t have much time to find a place or person to watch our pets when we went on an impromptu trip, she came in and saved the day. Our pets (2 dogs and 1 cat) seemed to enjoy her company, she sent pictures daily. All around a great experience. Highly recommended!

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life. Since 2013, my family has had a German Shepherd, and I was actively involved in his daily care and training as he grew up. Through that experience, I became comfortable with everything from basic obedience training to managing routines, walks, and general behavior. I’ve also helped care for my brother’s two dogs on multiple occasions, including feeding, walking, and spending extended time with them. I’m confident handling dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I’m used to adapting to their needs and following specific care instructions closely. I currently work as a Graduate Assistant in the Philosophy Department at UConn. Over the summer, I’ll be continuing my research from home. I may need to be on campus once or twice a week, but otherwise I’m generally available throughout the week. I also spend a lot of time outdoors trail running or going on long walks, so I’m happy to give active dogs plenty of exercise if needed. I’m available for boarding any day of the week and can usually accommodate bookings with very little advance notice. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I provide a calm, attentive environment where pets are supervised and cared for consistently throughout the day. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, training cues, and any special care needs such as medications or behavioral considerations. During walks, I am very mindful of surroundings and keep dogs safely leashed at all times. In my home, dogs are treated as part of the household and given a comfortable, low-stress environment with plenty of attention and exercise as needed. I also make sure to provide regular updates so you can feel confident and informed while you’re away.

Susan is amazing! She came to our house to meet the animals twice before her stay and a 3rd time before we left just to ensure the animals knew her. She is thorough and loving. She took care of our two house puppies, two cats, 3 goats and four chickens. She kept us updated with how the animals were doing and sent pictures. We have security cameras around the house and could see she spend ample time walking the dogs and letting them play. We are so thankful to have someone like Susan to help with the animals while we were gone. We don’t have family in CT, so she is the closest we have to to that! We appreciate you!

If I could give 10 stars I would! Elizabeth is absolutely amazing with pets and I highly recommend having her care for your pets. She was so engaging with all of my animals and sent pictures and updates, she’s incredibly kind and genuinely cares for your animals. She even came another time for me when I asked last minute and she was more than helpful to us. I am very grateful I found her and her services and will be using her again. Thank you so much Elizabeth!!!! ~Alyssa, Ben, Lili, Max and Lana <3

Elizabeth was fantastic even though my cat was a little skiddish once I left for a few days. She kept me up to date and I could count on her to be responsive and stick to the care instructions we went over before the stay. Definitely would rebook!
