Personalized care for your dog or cat - Amston

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Amston
“Stephen was amazing with our dog, Dakota! He took her for a great ride/walk every day and she had some super comfy places to hang out in their house. He clearly tuned in to Dakota’s personality and helped her feel right at home. We would definitely use Stephen again!!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Brittany and her family caring for our sweet boy, Warren. From the very first conversation, we felt completely at ease. Brittany is warm, communicative, and incredibly attentive — the kind of person who genuinely treats your dog like part of her own family. Throughout Warren’s stay, we received thoughtful updates, photos, and little notes that reassured us he was not only safe but truly happy. It was clear he was getting lots of love, playtime, and snuggles. Brittany’s home felt like a calm, welcoming environment, and her family embraced Warren as if he’d always belonged there. What really stood out was the level of personal care. Brittany paid attention to his quirks and the small details that helped him feel comfortable, like a comfy couch and soft blankets. When we picked him up, he was relaxed, well-cared for, and honestly looked like he had just come back from his own little vacation. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely loving to care for your dog, Brittany and her family are truly exceptional. We’re so grateful we found them — Warren can’t wait for his next stay! 🐾💕”

“Our puppy had a fantastic time! Kristin was super responsive and sent lots of photos and videos of our girl playing with the other dogs in the house. Will definitely be using Kristin again in the future.”

“Jessica and her husband Alex were both amazing! From our first meet, and seeing them interacting with my dogs, I knew these were "our people" :). Great communication the entire time I was gone, pictures daily, and they took care of my babies the way that would! We are going to do play dates, and I will be using them anytime I travel from here out! Thank you for giving me comfort and piece of mind, I was able to relax knowing my dogs were in such good hands ❤️”

“Dani was so accommodating with a last minute request. She is very knowledgeable about dogs. She has a caring personality as was a perfect match for my dog. Will be using her service again.”

“I feel more than comfortable leaving Eli with Serenity and family. He has stayed with them several times now and always gets so much attention and treated so special. They are also great about sending photo updates. Highly recommend!”


“I believe my dog had a good time thank you so much again. He is an amazing sitter and your dog will be in great care. Just don’t book him when I need him 😂. Honest guy and loves what he does.”

“Dash had a wonderful week long stay at Renata’s home. Plenty of exercise and outdoor time on their beautiful property on the lake. Would absolutely trust to take care of our dog again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Josh is fantastic. Super communicative and just a great guy. St Bernard had a lovely time at his place. It’s very close to Wesleyan University so it’s perfect for anyone visiting for any reason”

“Melissa was very easy to deal with and our dog Sammy seems to have had a great time with her. Melissa gave us several updates on Sammy and sent us lots of pictures of her adventures. I would definitely recommend Melissa to anyone.”

“This was my first time with Laura & my first time boarding my dog at all & she was the perfect fit! All the updates, safety & enrichment I could’ve asked for, my dog even seemed disappointed to leave!”


“Alan & Luis are always great with Tyson. They welcome him into their home like he was part of their family. They are flexible and I always feel confident Tyson is getting the best care when we are away.”


“Noel and his family did a fantastic job with our puppy! They are well equipped and their our boy had a blast in their yard! Noel was amazing with sending updates and pictures. I would highly recommend!”

“My dog is nearly 14 years old and has never been kenneled. With a family destination wedding on the horizon, I knew I had to find her somewhere safe. She’s a quirky dog and very set in her ways. We are so happy to have found Bev! Our dog came home happy and was very well cared for while we were away! I would recommend Bev to anyone!”

“Erica and Tom were great, from the moment we dropped off our dog to picking him up. Charlie felt right at home as he was treated like on of their own. They even accommodated bringing Charlie all the way to our wedding just so we could get photographs with him after the ceremony. Great communication and would definitely use again.”

“Andrea was absolutely amazing! She was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to make sure our pup, Scooby, felt comfortable and happy during his stay. We loved receiving the regular updates with pictures and videos, it gave us such peace of mind while we were away. To top it off, she even gifted Scooby the cutest goodie bag when we picked him up! I highly recommend Andrea and will definitely trust her to watch Scooby again in the future.”


“Kathryn & Jeremy were great! Their house was cozy and friendly. Our corgi loved playing with their kids and he was definitely tired when he got home. They were great at communication and we felt our dog was safe. Will book with them again!”

“You went above and beyond yet again for us! So nice getting photos of you bonding with the cats and we appreciate you keeping eyes on the house and yard while we were away. So glad you are our cat sitter!”

“Tyler was great! It was our first time hiring a sitter for our girls and using Rover. Tyler was excellent with communication, and even came to our home twice before our first trip to confirm all of the instructions. Everyday he showed up when he was supposed to and gave a detailed report of how each visit went. He was extremely careful when entering and leaving our home as he was made aware that one of our cats was an escape artist. We were very comfortable having Tyler in our home taking care of our cats and he did a great job! We look forward to our next trip and hiring Tyler to come back. In the past, we've packed up our girls and stress them out to have a family member watch them in their space. Tyler allowed us to keep our girls in their own home with familiarity and in keeping with their same feeding schedule. Our girls were calm when we returned home and didn't skip a beat. I highly recommend Tyler's services!”


About: I've grown up in a home with multiple cats, so caring for them has always been a part of my life. I also have a cat of my own named Bear, who is truly the best and has only made me love cats even more! I'm comfortable scooping and cleaning litter boxes, feeding according to your cat's routine, administering medication if needed, and making sure they have plenty of enrichment, playtime, and affection. I understand that every cat has a different personality—some love to play, while others prefer a quiet companion—and I'm happy to adjust my care to meet their individual needs. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in caring and reliable hands.

“Nina was fantastic in taking care of our kitties. She was flexible when we had last minute schedule changes and super nice and communicative throughout the whole process. We will definitely rebook with her again!”


“Kristen did an outstanding job watching our three cats. She provided plenty of pictures and comments on how they were doing. Highly recommended Kristen to watch your critters!!!”

“Kyle is the best! She LOVES animals. It was difficult for me trust someone I just met to come into my home and take care of our two cats that are part of our family. Kyle’s warmth and attentiveness toward Leopold and Maximus put my mind at ease. We are really glad to have met Kyle and will be utilizing her pet care services in the future.”


“Shannon has taken care of my cat twice and will be watching her again this coming August. I highly recommend Shannon-she’s reliable, friendly, trustworthy and just awesome to work with. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would! Thank you Shannon!!”

“Susan did an excellent job taking care of my cat and home while I was away for two weeks! She and my cat were fast friends and I returned to a clean home. I would definitely recommend her!”

This was our first weekend at daycare and Moose is so excited every time we arrive and doesn’t even want to leave! We are so happy we found the perfect fit!”

“Elizabeth and her family took such good care of our dog for the day. They provided a wonderful home with spacious backyard for him to run around with their golden retrievers, AND took him hiking in the snow (which our dog loves). We really appreciated Elizabeth accepting our booking request with pretty short notice as well. We definitely recommend Elizabeth!”

“Karen was a great dog sitter for our little guy. She sent photo updates, was kind, & we knew our dog was in good hands. We would definitely book with Karen again. Thank you.”

“Such a sweet family - took great care of my pup, was super responsive and we had a meet and greet before. Their house is beautiful, with a huge fenced in yard which my pup loved- very well set up for doggies. They sent pictures and updates all day and really took care of her like their own family. Would highly recommend and definitely book with them again!”

“Kristen- Such a blessing to have found you for my baby girl! Thank you so much! I don’t want to write the beyond-glowing review you so deserve because Kahlua (not me 😇😉) wants to keep you all to herself!”

About: I've been around dogs my whole life and truly love caring for them. I've worked with puppies before, taking them on walks and reinforcing the basic training their families were already working on to help build a strong foundation. I'm patient, dependable, and happy to follow your pet's routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care while you're away.

My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring and reliable hands. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I have a very flexible schedule throughout the summer. I'm available for drop-in visits and walks during the day, as well as early mornings and late evenings to accommodate your pet's routine. While I'm not able to provide overnight stays because I have a cat of my own at home, I'm happy to work with you to find times that best fit your pet's needs. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or an evening visit, I'm committed to providing reliable, consistent care. When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by sticking to their normal routine. I follow owners instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and any special care your pet requires. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment so they stay happy while their family is away. Although I'm not currently offering pet care in my own home because I have a cat, Bear, I treat every client's home with the same respect and care that I would my own. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving you peace of mind that your pet is in good hands.

About: I have been passionate about caring for animals since I was a child; when I turned 11, my parents got me a puppy and I raised and trained her to be the perfect family pet. This experience taught me to be very responsible and knowledgeable about an animal's needs at a young age. Since then, family and friends have asked me to take care of their pets when they go away, and now, at 26 years old, I own a house on a lake with a fenced-in yard where I have four pets of my own - a Puggle, a Golden Retriever, a Pomsky, and a cat. All of them I raised from puppies and each has their own needs. Additionally, I have fostered and rehabilitated a 13-year-old Golden Retriever suffering from Vertigo, who stayed with me for 6 months and needed lots of love, attention, medication, and patience. With my extensive experience taking care of different breeds of dogs from young puppies to senior dogs, you can rest assured that your furry companion will be in great hands when you entrust them to me. If your dogs are staying with me they will be sure to love this place as their second home. I am currently working full time as a reading teacher and leave my house around 8 and get back home around 3:45. During the summers, vacations. And days off I have full availability. If staying with me at my house dogs will receive plenty of exercise with a fully fenced in back yard and taking walks around the lake. Dogs I am watching at other peoples houses will also receive plenty of exercise as I love going for walks and hikes. I will also make sure to send lots of updates and photos of your furry family member to keep your mind at ease while you are away. I know it is not easy to leave our loved pets behind and will be sure to give you every comfort in leaving them within my care. You will be sure to see how happy they are on their retreat while you are away at yours. Dogs will be loved and spoiled in my care. They will receive plenty of exercise and lots of love and cuddles. If they are staying at my house they will be treated as part of the family. They will be allowed on the furniture for cuddles as well as the bed. When staying here it will also feel like a dog's dream as they have a nice fenced in backyard to run around with other dogs who will love to play with them. So no need to bring them to doggy daycare they will have plenty of other friendly loving dogs to keep them company. I will not board dogs who are aggressive, as I have 3 dogs of my own. All dogs who stay at my house need to be fixed with shots that are up to date. Please ensure to let me know a little bit about your dog . Include their likes, dislikes, and anything that is important for me to know specifically about your dog and their needs to ensure they are having the best time and getting the best care.

“Stephen was amazing with our dog, Dakota! He took her for a great ride/walk every day and she had some super comfy places to hang out in their house. He clearly tuned in to Dakota’s personality and helped her feel right at home. We would definitely use Stephen again!!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Brittany and her family caring for our sweet boy, Warren. From the very first conversation, we felt completely at ease. Brittany is warm, communicative, and incredibly attentive — the kind of person who genuinely treats your dog like part of her own family. Throughout Warren’s stay, we received thoughtful updates, photos, and little notes that reassured us he was not only safe but truly happy. It was clear he was getting lots of love, playtime, and snuggles. Brittany’s home felt like a calm, welcoming environment, and her family embraced Warren as if he’d always belonged there. What really stood out was the level of personal care. Brittany paid attention to his quirks and the small details that helped him feel comfortable, like a comfy couch and soft blankets. When we picked him up, he was relaxed, well-cared for, and honestly looked like he had just come back from his own little vacation. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely loving to care for your dog, Brittany and her family are truly exceptional. We’re so grateful we found them — Warren can’t wait for his next stay! 🐾💕”

Most recently , I was the primary caregiver for our seventeen year old terrier mix. Pet sitting will help fill the void that she has left in my life. I am recently retired, so my schedule is flexible. I am available during the week, weekends, days and evenings. I have an active life style. I have a large yard for your dog to enjoy on a leash. I have one cat at home who is dog experienced. I am open to caring for a dog's in my home if they are cat friendly or in yours.
“Absolutely pleased with Rolf’s care. From pictures we could see he was a happy dog. And he got to play outside in a child’s pool and a hosing! His favorite activity. He really didn’t want to come home!”
