“It has to be a really special person for me to feel comfortable leaving someone in my house overnight with my baby. Samantha spent the weekend inmy home and took great care of my shitzhu-bision. She was flexible with her schedule and asked all the right questions. She is very upbeat and enthusiastic. She is confident in her experience and knowledge about dogs. She randomly touched base with me and sent lots of pictures ensuring me that Pippa was very happy. I would absolutely have Samantha come back again and would highly recommend her.”

“Kate did a fantastic job taking care of my two pups while I was away. She was always on time (or even early), sent very detailed notes about each drop in visit and many pictures. I felt very confident that my pups were in good hands and from the pictures could tell they were very happy. Thank you Kate!!”

13. Rachel B.
“Rachel is so great with Molly!! She, in just a few visits, has earned the honor of Molly sitting directly on top of her. She always sends pictures, a nice update, and ensures that Molly has fresh water. Molly is a senior dog with medical needs and who is reactive, and Rachel is super wonderful at taking care of her. I cannot recommend her enough.”
14. Sarah I.
About: I went to college for vet tech. It is called Mount Ida College in Newton MA. I learned a lot of skills there including CPR, administering medications, restraining them. I also have knowledge on how to care for other animals like horses, rabbits, fish, and reptiles. I work part time at Shoprite in Southbury, CT. My schedule varies from week to week but I will work it out. My extra busy hours are usually holidays. Sadly I can’t do it at home due the safety of my pets. It became too stressful with my brother’s cat and dog and my own cat.
15. Lovely F.
“Lovely took excellent and attentive care to my stubborn bulldog. She kept me updated the whole time I was traveling with details and pictures. I will definitely use her again :)”
16. Jenna G.
“Jenna did a great job taking care of my cats. She showed up like clockwork, sent pictures to put me at ease and responded to all my questions and texts. Everything was as expected with no issues, everything neat and clean and she even brought the mail in without being asked to. I plan on using Jenna again in November and February. Big relief to have someone dependable to take care of Willow and Friday.”
17. Phoebe O.
“Phoebe is super great with dogs as she is a pet parent herself to an adorable and well-behaved Shihtzu named Sadie! She is very responsible when it comes to pet care, making sure to walk Sadie multiple times a day and even attending weekly small dog meetups. It's very obvious that she loves dogs and will make absolute sure that they're always taken great care of. She would make a wonderful dog sitter!”
18. Jessica & Ian K.

20. Siobhan L.
“Siobhan is a loving daughter, sister, and friend. She has 3 siblings who she always shows care and concern for on a daily basis. We also have 2 adorable dogs (Behr and Echo) that she helps take of. They are both rescue dogs, they each have their own issues. One struggles with anxiety and the other has a bit of aggression, but Siobhan is patient and kind with both of our dogs. She is excellent with both of them, and she is responsible and knowledgable in caring for them.”
