Dog Walkers in Stafford Springs, CT

About: I will take care of your dog or cat like they are my own. I currently have an almost 3 year old Bernedoodle who I trained myself when she was a puppy. My love of animals started when I was 5 years old and I got my first dog. He came home in a shoebox and grew into 90lbs of German Shepherd that was gentle as could be with his little girl. Throughout the years I had several types of animals from hamsters to lizards I don't think I was ever without a pet! Let me be there for your pets, we will have a lot of fun! I run my own business so my hours are extremely flexible. I am able to take same day appointments with just a few hours notice if needed. This flexibility allows me to take care of puppies as well. Whether your dog is a cuddle bug or one that loves to run I am the sitter for you. I can keep them on their normal schedules while watching your dog and maybe throw in an extra walk or play time! I am great at following directions to make sure my time with them goes smoothly.

About: As a college student, I’m able to provide consistent, flexible pet care tailored to your pet’s needs. I have hands-on experience from both caring for my own pets—dogs and cats—and volunteering at a local animal shelter. I always prioritize clear communication, so you’ll feel confident and informed while your pet is in my care. I’m available both weekdays and weekends. I’m flexible with the time and type of shift. I’m able to dog-walk, pet sit, check-in, or stay overnight if needed. I follow your pet’s feeding, walking, and play schedules while keeping your home tidy. I’m experienced with using crates, fences, or leashes—whichever best suits your pet’s needs. I also provide regular photo updates so you feel connected and confident while you’re away.

“Wonderful dog walkers. Pat was critical to helping me successfully interview for a job (including full days of Zoom) without whiny dogs in the background and was highly responsive and flexible in scheduling. We are looking forward to boarding our dogs with them and only wish they had greater availability (but of course, top dog walkers/boarders are busy!).”

About: I’ve taken care of puppies and older dogs, I have a 5 year old Boston terrier that loves to play. I work from home so easily able to give frequent walks, play time, and potty breaks. I treat all pets like they are my own and give them all the love and cuddles they’d like. I work from home. This allows me to provide excellent pet care involving feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks and play time. I am very flexible with my after work schedule as well to make sure feedings and additional bathroom breaks are available. I have 1 very friendly and playful Boston terrier. She gets along well with all dogs. I do have a fenced in yard that allowed for dogs to be able run around and play outside. I do have a crate that could fit a small or medium sized dog if that was preferred when I won’t be home.

About: I’ve always had pets in my household, and I’m an avid pet lover, with years of experience for both cats and dogs. I’m flexible, willing to work with any requests, and more importantly, I’m sure to get along with your fuzzy friends! Day to day, I work inconsistent hours at a part time job. Regardless, I can always make time for my precious pets. I make time for them, feeding them the occasional treat and refilling their water, even adding a few ice cubes when it’s hot. I can train dogs, I love to take walks with pets, can easily crate dogs if needed, and I bring a gentle and friendly approach to any timid or skittish animal.

About: I love dogs and cats! I do not currently own a dog or cat, but I have been volunteering at Our Companions Animal Sanctuary in Ashford, where I walk dogs every Friday morning. I am also in their Canine College program, taking and assisting in dog training classes. I enjoy using positive training techniques (treats and praise) to reinforce polite dog walking and attentive behaviors. I am comfortable walking dogs up to 70 lbs. I have recently retired, which gives me some flexibility, and I am participating in a Canine College dog training program. I love dogs, and I am looking for more opportunities to meet and spend time with dogs. I also enjoy cats and would be happy to house sit and/or walk your cat as well! My recent experiences with Our Companions Animal Sanctuary and Canine College programs are teaching me so much about being a pet guardian for different kinds of dogs. I am learning about dog body language and how to help engage dogs in enrichment, calming, and attention-game activities while in a home, in a yard, and on a walk. I have friends who own cats, and I enjoy getting to know them as well.

“Kaelin is great! My dog Goose has lots of fun on his walks with her and we appreciate her so much. She’s kind, respectful, and so nice to our sweet boy even though he can be a little nuts 😊”

About: I've been involved in the care of my own and others animals for over 40 years. I am comfortable around many types of pets also! I am available most days and hours since this is my only job besides being a mom to my daughter and my own fur babies I understand the importance and need to keep a dog in a leash. And I am aware that sometimes other dog owners are not very respectful in public with their dogs and other dogs safety

About: Like many people, I've grown up being surrounded by pets and animals. So, what other path to take than to learn how to properly care for them? Every pet and animal deserves a special amount of attention and care based on their needs. Sometimes life becomes too busy with work or personal trips. Rather than judge you, I'm here to help you. Who says life has to stop being fun when you have responsibilities? There are ways to help yourself and I would love to be there to take one more thing off your mind. Not only am I understanding, knowledgeable, and caring, but I will ensure the absolute best for your pets as they are a part of your family. I work part-time to get myself through college, but with that, I have plenty of free time where I can look after your animals. I work online, so if you need me there for a few hours if your pet has anxiety (or just peace of mind), I can be there for a few hours. If you need me there in the early morning or late evening, I can make that happen. Besides my flexible schedule, I can primarily fit pet care into the evenings and early mornings. While Tuesdays and Thursdays are a little slim for me, I can help make it work for your pets for the right price. While I would love to care for your pets in my own home or yours, I have a lovely elderly dog who can not handle the stress of other dogs being around. However, I would be more than happy to commute to your home and look after your dog(s). All I require are the basic necessities to be provided for your dog, such as food and water supplies. If you would like me to walk your dog, then I would also require you to provide a leash and/or harness.

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, I bring both heart and know-how to every pet I care for. I’ve raised energetic puppies, comforted anxious seniors, and managed complex medical needs with love and consistency. I’ve personally cared for boxers, pit bulls, labradors, and even a shih-tzu, so I’m very comfortable with large breeds and strong-willed pups. One of my beloved boxers had epilepsy and DCM, so I’m no stranger to detailed medication routines, monitoring symptoms, and creating a calm, structured environment. Whether your pup needs long walks, belly rubs, medication, or just a cozy lap to rest on, I’m here to provide personalized, attentive care that keeps tails wagging and pet parents at ease. As a teacher, I’m currently off for the summer and have plenty of time and flexibility to devote to pet care. I’m home during the day, available for overnights, drop-ins, walks, and playtime—whatever your pet needs to feel safe and loved while you’re away. Even during the school year, I’m still available on weekends, evenings, and holidays. My schedule aligns perfectly with many pet parents' needs, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether it’s sticking to a feeding routine, administering medication, or just keeping your pet company, I build their care right into my day like they’re part of the family. When caring for pets in your home, I’m respectful and detail-oriented. I make sure your pet sticks to their routine and gets plenty of affection and care while you're away. I always clean up after myself (and your pet!), water plants or bring in mail if needed, and send regular updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I treat every animal I care for like my own—with patience, love, and a deep sense of responsibility.

“I appreciate Rachel’s prompt walking of my dog!”
