Pet Sitting Storrs

About: Ever since I can remember I have always watched animals for friends, family members, and neighbors. I have worked as a dog walker for a company where I was responsible for letting myself in and taking their dog for a walk. I also have experience in two different animal shelters. During summer breaks I work as a veterinary assistant so I am very comfortable around animals with medical needs and administering medications. I have also had a bunny for several years and have watched other peoples bunnies so I am very familiar with bunny care. I am currently a full-time student, with a flexible class schedule. Most of my availability will be after class is over usually between 1-3pm depending on the day. Some days I will be done earlier than others. I am free all day on Saturday and Sunday. While I am unable to board your animals due to my living situation I would love to take care of your pets in other ways! My biggest priority when spending time with any animal, whether they are my own or someone else's, is health and safety. When walking dogs outside I am always vigilant regarding our surroundings. Even when in the client's home I am constantly on the look out for anything the dog should could get into trouble with whether that is a toy or food item.

“Brittany was great! My cats seemed to really like her, she kept me updated on everything, and was quick to respond to messages. Thank you!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience with both training and senior care. I trained my own dog, who is now 12 years old, and I currently care for him as he experiences arthritis. This has taught me how to recognize signs of discomfort, adjust activity levels, and provide daily massages to keep him comfortable. I understand that not every dog needs long walks, and I prioritize each pet’s individual needs, safety, and well-being. I’m currently a senior in college, which gives me a bit more flexibility in my schedule, and I truly enjoy spending that time caring for pets. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or extended care, I’m able to plan my days around pets and give them the attention and consistency they need. I live in an off-campus house with a front yard that does not open onto a busy street, which helps provide a safe and calm environment for pets. The house is spacious, allowing pets to move around comfortably and have their own space to relax. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I’m very attentive and focused on making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for. I take time to build trust, follow routines closely, and make sure pets feel safe and happy in my presence.

“Kelsey is a wonderful cat sitter! Took extra time to get the shy one to warm up to her, and gave them lots of love and attention. 100% recommend.”

Elaine H.

“Sydney was amazing. Not only was she able to jump in last minute she sent tons of photos and kept us updated on our babies care. Our doggies are old men now and need a bit more care and attention. She did a wonderful job!”

“Amanda did a wonderful job caring for our cat Serene while we were on vacation. She was extremely kind, caring and thoughtful, she provided excellent and constant communication about Serene’s well-being. She not only fed Serene and cleaned her litter box every visit like asked, but also played with her and bonded with her, and provided us with cute photos of her to look at while we were away and missing her. I would absolutely recommend Amanda for any pet owner who needs someone to do drop-ins with their pet while they are away, and would definitely book her again! Thank you Amanda 😊”

About: My veterinary assistant experience with small and large animals sets me apart as I keep a close eye on your animal’s health and well-being. I am not easily spooked, but I want your pet to receive the best care I can give. I am not a trainer, but I am comfortable dealing with some pets with behavioral issues. I want to create the safest and most comfortable environment for your pet, your sanity and myself! I currently work four days a week and have a three day weekend. I am looking to pet sit for people who are going on a short trip or need routine weekend care. I can be flexible with week nights, but it will need to be established well in advance. I am looking to house sit in the owners residence. My cats would not be happy to have any new comers to our family. I am very punctual with breakfast and dinner time, and I am typically one to spend time wherever the pet would like to whether that be indoors or outdoors!

“Sarah was absolutely amazing, I really felt so comfortable that my Finnegan was in great hands with her! I was able to get away and literally not have any stress or concerns about my dogs well being! Thank you so much Sarah and thank you for the updates on every visit and the pictures too :)”

Anita H.

“Ana was lovely and flexible and took excellent care of our kitty. She was a great communicator, and kept us up to date on everything while we were away. Thank you so much! ❤️”

Morgan T.

“Very prompt with communications, dependable, she made sure to get all requirements ahead of time. Took great care of my cats and plenty of photos! Would easily recommend to others.”

Andy V.

“You will not find a better person to care for your pet. Kristen is caring, attentive, and exactly the type of person I needed to care for my high energy pup while I'm at work. She cares and wants to do what is the best for you and your pet. So happy to have met her, you will not be disappointed!”

Mackenzie S.

“Lindsey was great! It was a great experience knowing we were leaving our animals with a trustworthy person. We are excited to use Lindsey in the future! Highly recommend!”

Nick R.

“Lila was wonderful with Snickers. She was very prompt and did everything I asked with his crazy senior dog behaviors. She’s sweet and loves dogs, it’s obvious with her interaction when she met my dog. It was also quite a last-minute booking, and she really helped us out that way.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I previously worked at a boarding dog/cat kennel, where I’ve been responsible for multiple dogs and cats. I’ve also been a pet owner my entire life and currently have a dog and three cats. Alongside having my pets, I have experience giving medication including pills and insulin injections for diabetes. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’ll make sure your pet is well cared for. I am currently unemployed, so I am very flexible with scheduling and have plenty of time to care for your pet! I do have some nighttime commitments for at most 2 hours twice a week (band rehearsal) but other than that I am free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my main priorities. I will follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, medications, walks, playtimes, and any other special care they need.

“Deb did an excellent job taking care of Molly Molly and Starfire! She sent pictures and great communication each day. She also took the time to engage with them during each visit - couldn't ask for more.”

Raina H.

“Orion took sweet care of our babies for a very last minute need! We are so very appreciative! The picture we got were so sweet, and we’re so happy we found someone who we can hopefully book again if needed!”

Kaela F.

“Kailey did a great job - it was a busy visit with outside time, prepping a meal from the fridge, and snacks - I appreciated the meet and greet in advance of the drop-in too. Thanks Kailey!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was little. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I have experience with larger breeds like Pit Bulls and Cane Corsos as well as smaller dogs like Yorkies and Mini Poodles, and I’m comfortable adjusting my care style to fit each dog’s personality and needs. As a student working part-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care seamlessly into my routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting on weekends and weekdays. I provide care in your home to keep your pets comfortable in their familiar space. I’m attentive, respectful of your home, and make sure to follow your pets’ routines closely so they feel safe and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve had three dogs throughout my whole life, so I have a lot of experience taking care of them. I have lots of experience with walks, feeding, watering, and just playing with them. Im currently working a part time job, so I have plenty of time to take the dog(s) for walk(s) and take care of them! I also am willing to accommodate to your needs! Although I haven’t taken care of anyone else’s pets, I am willing to do anything to make sure your pet/s is/are happy! I’m a huge pet lover, so I will ensure they are taken care of.
