About: I’ve worked with dogs for several years and have hands on experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities.

About: Between 10 years of fostering dogs and assisting with Rover boarding, I’ve worked with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. This background taught me how to read body language, introduce pets safely, and help new or nervous dogs settle comfortably into a routine. My hands-on experience covers everything from puppyhood to the golden years. Having raised and trained my own dog from a puppy, I am very comfortable with early training foundations, structure, and positive reinforcement. I also have extensive experience caring for senior dogs, administering medications, and managing attentive post-surgery recovery care with a gentle, patient approach. I treat every dog with the same dedication, comfort, and safety-first mindset I give my own. You can always count on prompt communication alongside frequent photo and video updates throughout the day, so you have complete peace of mind while you’re away. Because I work part-time at Fairfield University, I have a ton of flexibility throughout the week. My Fridays through Mondays are completely open for house sitting and extended visits, while my mid-week schedule is easily adaptable for walks and drop-in check-ins. Pet care is a genuine priority in my day rather than something squeezed in. When I am caring for your dog, their daily rhythm for walks, meal times, play sessions, and plenty of cuddle breaks comes first. Your pup will get consistent company, regular potty breaks, and lots of dedicated attention. When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is keeping their normal routine as seamless and stress-free as possible. Staying in their familiar environment keeps anxiety low, so I strictly follow your specific feeding times, walking routes, and house rules. Safety and trust always come first. On walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and stay alert to our surroundings. In your home, I make sure doors and gates are properly secured, keep anything dangerous out of reach, and treat your living space with complete respect. You can always count on regular photo and video updates so you know both your pets and your home are in dependable hands.

“I cannot recommend Leah highly enough! Leaving my cat, Bailey, is always stressful, but Leah made it completely worry-free. I received daily updates and the cutest photos, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear that Bailey wasn't just being fed, but was actually getting genuine affection and he loved every minute of it. I came home to a very happy, relaxed cat. I’ll definitely be booking again!”

About: I've lived with dogs since I was four, and have seriously cared for dogs since I was 12. My first dog lived to a grand age of 18, with loving care and judicious pet care.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in high school. I am known as the dog-sitter in my neighborhood. When my neighbors go on vacation or away, I am always the first one called to watch their animals. While they are away, I feed and walk the dogs. I also have experience staying over night at various houses to dog sit. I’m currently working as a teacher, but we are off during the Summer. I have a lot of free time to take care of all of your pets needs. I am available Monday through Sunday. I will follow all of the instructions of the pet’s owner. I am available to walk, feed, play, and dog sit overnight. I will spend quality time with the pets.
“My dogs are my world, so leaving them—even for a short trip—comes with a lot of anxiety and careful consideration. I had a last-minute work trip come up, and Robin was incredibly accommodating, stepping in on very short notice to stay with my girls for a couple of days. She was thoughtful, careful, and clearly brought a lot of experience to the job. She sent regular updates throughout the day, often with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I never had to wonder how they were doing—I knew they were in really good hands. When my return trip ended up taking longer than expected, Robin was also able to pivot at the last minute and come back to give them an extra walk and make sure they were taken care of. I also came home to a clean and tidy house, a thoughtful note with updates, and my mail brought inside. Those little things meant a lot and really reflected how considerate she was throughout the entire stay. I am endlessly appreciative of Robin and the care she gave my girls. I would absolutely trust her with them again and will happily book with her in the future. Five stars — THANK YOU ROBIN!”

Meral was wonderful with my dogs! She was very sweet, reliable, and attentive, especially with my puppies who need a little extra care. She followed all my instructions and made me feel completely comfortable leaving them with her. You can really tell she loves dogs, and I’m so glad to have found someone I trust so close to home. I would definitely book her again!

Lindsay was so great with my cat and dog! She gave them lots of attention and helped look after them (litter box, food, water, bathroom break etc!) She was also very communicative as well as friendly. I appreciate her helping us out the last two days and will definitely be asking her to come back.
