Pet Sitting in South Windham

“Kourtney did a great job with my 4 cats and made sure their needs were met during our vacation. She was very good with communication and sending photos. I would recommend her.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends, neighbors and family members since I was 10. I have potty trained and taught basic commands to my dogs, fed and cared for cats, guinea pigs and ball pythons. Pets are part of the family and should get high quality care regardless of their owners scheduling requirements. I'm working part time over the summer and looking to have pets to care for in my spare time. My availability is pretty open with the exception of 9am to 12pm Monday through Thursday in July. I would love to play with your pets, bring them for walks, provide food, water, love and attention. I genuinely care for all animals and would love to get to spend time with your pet.

“They were great! Incredibly responsive, sent lots of photos of our cats while we were on vacation. Played with them and scooped the litter box. I’d recommend them to anyone looking for a great cat sitter, and I’ll be booking with them again in the future!”

About: I have owned dogs throughout my whole life. At one point Our pack totaled 6. I’ve owned 2 horses, a guinea pig, a rabbit, and a cat. I worked as an apprentice vet tech until the veterinarian died unexpectedly of a heart attack. I have recently pursued more education regarding grooming. I have groomed my own dogs and friends dogs over the years. I am conscientious and will never allow a dog to be in pain seeking medical care immediately. I would like it to be part time to start with the option of going full time further down the road. I am working on grooming lessons, and my current part time job. I believe in being observant of their behaviors and to respond accordingly. Our dogs receive much love and play time. They are allowed to be with us and on our furniture. I realize that many owners frown upon that and I will honor their wishes when caring for their pet

“Bekka was amazing! She's very detail-oriented and adapted to the quirks of my two cats' quickly. She was a lifesaver over a pretty long stretch over the holidays and took fantastic care of them. I came home to two happy cats. (She's also awesome at taking cat pictures and the updates were perfect.) Thank you so much Bekka! :)”

About: I've had dogs throughout my adult life and regularly care for a friend's three cats, so I'm no stranger to a variety of pet personalities! While I’m currently pet-free, I’d love the opportunity to care for yours. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always follow your instructions closely to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I exclusively house sit in your home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings. Whether your pet enjoys long walks or prefers lounging on the couch all day, I’m happy to match their energy. I have a special place in my heart for senior pets and bring a calm, patient presence to ensure they get the gentle care they need. I’m likely the best fit for your weekend getaways, as I work a 9–5 job outside the home on weekdays. That said, if your pet is comfortable being alone during the day — or if you're located near my workplace in Willimantic — I would be able to swing by for lunch-time drop-ins. Outside of work hours, you can count on me to spend plenty of quality time at home with your pet. I understand how important it is for your pet to receive the same level of care they get from you. I take note of all the details you share — from feeding routines and approved treats to medication schedules and special instructions. I believe this: your pets, your home, your rules. During our initial meet-and-greet, I’ll likely ask plenty of questions to make sure I have everything I need to provide the best care possible.

“autumn was a lifesaver! my kitty is a bit high maintenance, but she was a natural at following his routines. while i was away, i got to Fully relax knowing everything at home was taken care of. :) thank you autumn!!!”

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life since I was little. Growing up, my neighbors' and friends' dogs became honorary family members through countless walks, and I attended a summer camp held by the Humane Society to expand my pet care knowledge. When I was a teenager, we adopted a pet of our own - an elderly dog with a lot of special needs. Later on, I held a summer job on an educational farm, where I cared for a variety of farm animals on a daily basis and facilitated safe interactions with visitors. More recently, I've expanded my repertoire to include cats and house sitting. Right now I am available for full days on Sunday and Wednesday and nights from 6 pm to 8 am the rest of the week. I cannot board pets in my own home but am committed to meeting your pets' specific needs at your home or on walks. I find it best to have a conversation with prospective clients ahead of time about their expectations.

About: I’ve always had dogs of my own since I was little, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve looked after dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to slower-moving seniors—and I’m comfortable with things like crate training, giving medications, and sticking to your pet’s routine. I truly love being around animals. I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Whether they need lots of playtime or just a calm, cozy space, I adapt to meet their needs. Even with a busy schedule as a student-athlete, I always make time for pet care. I’m available mornings, during the day, evenings, and weekends, and I’m willing to adjust things to make it work for you and your pup! When caring for pets in your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they get their walks, meals, playtime, and any special care they need... all while respecting your space and keeping everything tidy. They’ll have a safe space, plenty of attention, and lots of love!

About: I’m passionate about helping dogs and their owners. I’ve worked with several rescue dogs and understand the special care and attention they need. I recently had my own personal foster pup find her forever home!! Now, I have the time to assist other dog owners with walks and daily routines. Whether you have a busy schedule or just need an extra hand, I’d love to help keep your dog happy and active. Let’s connect to discuss how I can support your pup’s needs! I have a masters degree in social work and work in an elementary school! I love working with kids and giving back to communities. Although, that does make me unavailable for the furry friends until 4/5 pm M-F (depending on your location). I have full availability on the weekends. I can do mornings M-F depending on your location and time. Please message me with any questions or concerns. I am flexible and happy to work collaboratively to figure something out! I always keep the safety of your pet as my top priority, making sure they’re secure and comfortable at all times. 🐾 I also believe in giving each animal an active and fun experience, whether it’s through exciting walks, playtime, or adventures that keep them engaged and happy! 🐕💨 Whatever you might or might not be comfortable with, please communicate that with me! . I am flexible and happy to work collaboratively to figure something out!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life—I’ve grown up around dogs and have personally raised both a German Shepherd and a Yorkie Terrier, giving me experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I’ve also cared for cats, horses, and farm animals for years, so I’m comfortable with pets of all kinds and ages. From feeding and walking to bathing and playtime, I’ve done it all. I’m great at reading animal behavior and helping them feel safe, happy, and well-cared for. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine! I work part-time with a flexible schedule, so I’m available on my days off as well as before or after my shifts. I love spending time with animals, so I’m excited to fill my free time caring for pets and helping out fellow pet parents whenever I can! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow your routine as closely as possible so your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. I stick to feeding and walk schedules, give them lots of love and attention, and always keep an eye on their behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy. I also treat your home with respect—keeping things clean, secure, and just the way you left them. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel totally comfortable and at ease during the time I’m there.

“Brittany was wonderful for two drop in visits while I had surgery. She clocked in/out, took some photos of Gracie, and left a short message each time. Recommended.”

“Thomas did a great job with my 2 cats. They are very shy creatures, and don’t come out of hiding for most of the sitters that I have tried, but they were very friendly for him and got lots of snuggles. It is good to know that I have a reliable cat sitting option who my cats really like.”

“Ana was awesome!!!! She sent me multiple pictures of my cats throughout my vacation. She was very attentive to them and made sure my special needs cat took his medicine. She was very patient with his antics and made sure he ate his food and was comfortable. She even sent a few videos of them happily purring which was unexpected as they typically avoid strangers. I highly recommend her and would feel safe leaving my cats in her care again.”

About: I was previous owner of a pit and a chihuahua, I have a love for dogs. I can truly relate to anyone when it comes to someone truly caring about your dog, you want them to be treated like children, cared for like children. It’s something I will provide every time that I am with them, I can truly say dogs know who does it from the heart and who doesn’t. I currently work during the for Autistic support and have been working with children of all age groups for more than 10 years, like I stated before I am previous owner of a pit and chihuahua , they are currently is with my mom due to the move she made and me getting married she wanted to take them with her. The pit is 12 years old and the chihuahua is 7 years old and I still consider them my babies when I go to visit. I was caring for them for 6 years.
