“One of the best! Updated me the whole time my doggie was on a walk and came with last minute notice. Will definitely be booking more walks!! Muffin was satisfied 😇”
“Dana is AWESOME! She is very thorough and loving walker. 10/10 would recommend her to walk your pup. She met with us before she started walking my pup, and my Ollie loved her instantly, and so did we!! She took notes on everything we told her about our pupper. She’s extremely experienced and gives a full report after each walk. Thank you so much Dana! You have made our days so much easier by helping out with our little boy!!”
“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!”
“Karinna took Toby for an afternoon walk. I know how excited he gets to be outside so I’m so happy Karinna was available. I appreciated the write up and pics of his time. I’d recommend Karinna for walks with your fur babies.”
“Ashely is such an amazing sitter! Koda loves her and is always so excited to see her when she picks her up for walks. I highly recommend Ashley’s services to anyone looking for a responsible and reliable sitter - we will for sure continue to use her services consistently!”
“I would 10/10 recommend Jillian. Our first time meeting she did awesome with my dog and her experience with dogs and training really shows. I’ve never seen my dog so responsive and attentive to commands or behaving properly before. If you ask for any tips Jillian has plenty of experience and showed me how to get the best out of my dog. After the walk, my dog plopped right down on the floor and got ready to nap. I definitely will use Jillian in the future for any dog care needs.”
About: I grew up with a high-energy border collie, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to handle smart dogs! Since college, I’ve occasionally walked and sat for friends’ pets, especially during med school. I’m attentive, reliable, and always make sure pets feel safe and cared for. I’m currently between jobs and have a very flexible schedule. I’m happy to work with you to accommodate your pet’s specific needs, be it morning walks, house sitting, or anything in between. I offer pet care in your home to help your pet stay comfortable in their familiar space. I respect your home and routines, and I always prioritize your pet’s safety and well-being. I’m calm and detail oriented, whether it’s medications, feedings, or just giving them love and attention.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for my co-workers and friends for the past several years while they traveled out of town for an extended amount of time. I make sure to check-in every day, feed them, and make sure they get enough attention. I am raising money for marathons I have signed up for over the next year. I’m preparing to run the Marine Corps Marathon and aim to run the Boston Marathon. I usually work evenings from 3-11pm Wednesdays through Sundays and I will have time to take care of your pet in the mornings before I get ready for work. When I am in charge of your pet, I make sure sure they have the food the need to remain healthy, give them a walk when they need it, and provide them with enough attention.
About: Hi! I’m Megan, a lifelong dog lover based in Manchester and South Windsor, Connecticut. I had the joy of caring for my amazing Pittie—Samantha—for 13 years.

About: Since I am a dog lover, I will provide the upmost care for your dogs and will treat them as if they were my own. I will let them play in my backyard and don’t worry, I’ve had many pet dogs since I was a little girl so I know what to do and not do when caring for them. I’m available in the morning before 3 on weekdays and maybe on some weekends depending if I have work or not. I can try to train them tricks and give them doggie treats throughout the time they’re with me. I love dogs so taking care of your dog will be one of the best time for the day and I will make sure they get taken care of. I work full time but since I work remote, I can find some availability during the day or after work and weekends are always available I have a fenced yard and have other pets where they are well behaved and trained. I will ensure effective monitoring of your pets and care
About: Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Over the past few years, I’ve gained hands-on experience helping with everything from daily walks to administering basic medications. I’m comfortable with high-energy breeds, shy pets, and those that need a little extra patience. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their owner is away. I’m available for pet care on weekdays after 4:30 PM, and fully open on Saturdays. On Sundays, I’m free starting at 1 PM. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or sitting, I’m happy to help during my open hours! At my home, dogs have a secure outdoor space to explore with a rope lead connected to the house, giving them room to roam safely. I also have a crate available if needed. My 8-pound Pomeranian is very friendly and loves being around other dogs, making your pup feel right at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine closely, provide regular updates, and ensure their pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable in their own environment.
About: I offer more than just a quick check-in. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means training a new puppy, helping a senior pet feel more comfortable, or offering extra attention to pets with anxiety. I also include daily updates—photos, videos, whatever makes you feel closest to your pet while you’re away. I love pets sometimes more than my own time so I will be ready mostly at anytime to give my time to take care of furry babies. I have no pets in my home so there will be no interaction with others pets while I give my services. I have a doggie park a couple feet away from my house for easy and fun physical activities.
About: I’ve had two cats for one year (with my then partner) and I’ve been walking my sister’s dog Maru (Schnauzer mix, 12lbs) for the past 10 years! I recently relocated which means I won’t spend much time with Maru:/ But! I hope to meet your pet, spend quality time and make them feel happy and safe :) I’m comfortable spending time with pets indoors or outdoors! I’m available:) I’m currently unemployed. I am taking a long break from the medical field. I might not come back and become a full time pet sitter/walker! I will carefully learn the client’s instructions. If at my place I will ensure that no food/meds are left open. My place uses electric stove. The handle part of kitchen items (pots, frying pans) will always face the walls as to Not get caught and spill the contents.

Mayra was awesome. My dog Mila has anxiety and being around a lot of people can be too much. I booked a walk to see how my dog would handle being walked by someone else. Mayra was attentive to milas triggers handled her like a boss. Would recommend Mayra for any dog walking needs you may have.
