Dog Walkers in Southport, CT

“Valeria has been absolutely amazing in her brief time as Nike’s new dog walker! We had the unfortunate circumstance where our walker of two years was no longer available and Valeria has since saved the day. Replacing someone you’ve known and trust is stressful, but Valeria relieved all of our concerns and then some, and most importantly, Nike is in love! Valeria is reliable, asks all of the right questions, and really cares about her job and our dog, all of which we are so grateful for. We would recommend Valeria to anyone looking for someone to help out with their beloved pets.”

About: I have had experience walking and pet sitting dogs for over 5 years. I have a family dog named Redford who I am responsible to walk every day. I am in college, so I have to schedule dog walking around my classes. My afternoons are typically more open than my mornings due to my classes. I am very responsible when it comes to dog walking. It is important to make sure they are safe and enjoying their walk. I have had plenty of experience with this in the past 5 years.

“Sean loves dogs and they love him back! I just mention his name to my Labradoodle, Doris and she perks up and gets ready for her walk! Sean is punctual and flexible which really helps on a day to day basis. Five stars for Sean because he is professional, kind and motivated!”

“Sabrina was so helpful! Had a family emergency and needed someone to walk my dog tank as he would have been home for 12 hours by himself. She immediately responded and was able to walk him twice today! She sent pictures both times and gave feedback on how he was on the walks. Thank you so much Sabrina, will absolutely be reaching out again when I need some help!”

About: I have grown up my whole life in an animal friendly family. I have had 8 dogs and 3 cats, and I am well experienced with cats and dogs of all ages, temperaments, and sizes. I have pet sit for friends, family, and neighbors from the age of 16 on. I understand first hand the stress and anxiety of leaving your furry friends behind and will make your experience with me stress free. I currently attend Fairfield University with a very flexible schedule of no more than two classes a day. I usually up at 8:30 but I am more than happy to work around your schedule. Something I have learned from growing up with animals is to always listen to what the dog or cat is “saying” whether directly to you or not. I will care for them as if they are my own and always put them first.

“We can’t say enough good things about Destiny. She has been incredibly helpful during a very difficult time for our family, and her flexibility and kindness have meant the world to us. She took amazing care of our dog, who absolutely loves company, and it was clear from the updates and photos that she felt happy, comfortable, and loved while with her. She goes above and beyond, is extremely dependable, and truly treats your pet like her own. We are so grateful for everything she’s done for us, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and all-around wonderful sitter. Thank you so much, Destiny!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was a kid, and I’ve picked up some valuable tools since then! I love animals so much that I got a degree in Animal Studies. I know some basics in training, understand animal body language, and have a passion for enriching animals’ lives. At the moment, my schedule is open for pet care! I can take your dog out in the middle of the day, or care for your pet overnight. I offer services at your home because my apartment is too small for your pet. When I go to a client’s home I’m careful about not startling any pets when I enter, introducing myself to the cat or dog, and not disturbing anything in the home.

I have all mornings and afternoons till 4pm free Monday to Friday weekend are also very flexible. All I do is take my dog out for walks. I have a fenced in backyard and I have a 4 year old female dog that’s very friendly playful and can keep company to yours.

About: I have taken care and owned several pets all my life . It has been my life mission to take care of animals with compassion and love. I am currently retired from working in public school for over 24 years. I am walking dogs o full time . I am available Monday through Friday. If clients are in need of occasional Saturday or Sunday I'm happy to help out. I treat all pets as if they are my own. When walking safety always comes first. I prefer a shorter leash when walking on the road and to keep them closer to me. Summer days I prefer to keep them off pavement and on grass. I walk dogs with a water bottle to keep them hydrated if needed. When meeting other dogs I always ask owner first if friendly then approach if all looks well. Dogs are truly a joy for me!
