“Daisy lived her overnight stay with Saori. She came home happy and super relaxed. I loved getting photo updates throughout her stay. I knew Daisy was in good hands and it helped make my trip so much more enjoyable knowing she was safe and well cared for. I’ll be booking again soon.”
“We had a great experience with Kate! Our dog, Sampson, stayed in her home and was very well cared for. Communication was easy and consistent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. Sampson is pretty easygoing, but it was clear he was treated with attention and kindness. We will definitely book with them again.”
“We had such a great experience with Jennifer who care of our dog, Daisy, for almost a week. Jennifer was very communicative throughout the week - keeping us updated throughout our trip with thoughtful messages and plenty of photos showing Daisy relaxed, happy, and clearly enjoying her time with Jennifer and her family. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Daisy was in such caring and capable hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jennifer again—highly recommended!”
“She was absolutely lovely! I felt completely comfortable trusting her with Frodo. She kept us updated with adorable pictures, and it was clear that he was getting plenty of play, attention, and love. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’ll definitely be booking with her again next time!”
“Danielle and her husband were absolutely amazing while watching our little guy (Jaxson) for a quick getaway this week. We were given constant updates/pictures, and he clearly made himself right at home and was as comfortable as can be. Communication was prompt from the beginning and we were truly at ease while we were away that he was receiving more than adequate care. Jax became quick friends with their pets, and was moping around when we got home because he clearly misses them! Could not recommend enough!”
“Mary Ann watched Milo for me for a few hours. She took great care of him - tossing the ball with him immediately to get him settled. She also sent me photos & was communicative while I was gone. Thank you Mary Ann!”
“Yajaira took my pup in at the last minute & also was able to extend her stay since I had gotten surgery & realized I needed a little more recovery time. Yajaira also stayed in touch & sent me pics on a regular basis. My pup seemed in good spirits after two weeks with Yajaira & that let me know she had taken good care of her. Will book with Yajaira again.”
“My two pups had an overnight with James and his family. We have been looking for a new sitter for more than 6 months since ours moved to another state. The girls came back happy and tired. I got updates and photos while they were with him. We will be using James again.”
“Outstanding! Alan and Luis provided extraordinary care for our Black Lab mix Annie while we were on vacation for a week. They are truly the best! Compassionate, friendly, caring, trustworthy are just a few words to describe Alan and Luis. The house is beautiful with a gated fence and a "kiddy pool". Annie truly enjoyed her stay and playing with the other guests as evidenced by her disposition when I picked her up and the the daily photos. I will always check first with Alan and Luis in the future when I need a sitter for Annie.”
“Liliana & her husband were very good with Luigi. They both took the time during our Meet & Greet to ask questions and get to know him. Liliana sent pictures during his stay and he looked happy out on his afternoon walks.”
“This was Rae's third stay with Tina and Jordan, and once again they were absolutely wonderful. As repeat clients, we already knew Rae would be in great hands, but they still exceeded our expectations. They sent plenty of photos and videos throughout her stay, which we always appreciate, and it was clear from every update that Rae was happy, comfortable, and treated like part of the family. Seeing how excited she is to be with them gives us so much peace of mind when we're away. Tina and Jordan are kind, communicative, and genuinely care about the dogs they watch. It's not easy leaving your dog behind, but knowing Rae is with people who love and care for her as much as they do makes all the difference. We wouldn't hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”
“Cassandra did an amazing job caring for our 4 year old English bulldog for 8 days. Our bulldog is quite stubborn with several medical conditions and she administered all medications and went above and beyond so we can travel without him for the first time in 4 years. Cassandra sent us daily updates and was very quick to respond to us and helped put our minds at ease while away.”
“Robin is always so wonderful with our dog, Adelaide. She does regular drop in visits with her so when we need boarding services, Robin is always our first choice! She shows our dog so much care, attention and love.”
“Once again Annette has enabled me to leave Charlie and not worry. She is so reliable and knowledgable. We were gone for close to two weeks and I didn't worry about Charlie at all. Thank you Annette!”
“Rich was a joy to meet and to care for our 2 pups! We loved his daily puppy pics & videos. Our Lucy loved Rich & our big shy guy, Percy, who soon settled in, too. Great experience at the house of Rich and his two fur babies.”
“Valerie and her daughter Maddie were amazing for Jameson's first stay at their home. We received several updates and many pictures during his one night stay. Her dogs are super sweet and Jameson enjoyed their company. She has a beautiful property for hikes too. Jameson will definitely be back.”
“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!”
“Katie was so kind and caring with our sweet senior dog! Our dog needs a gentle, patient care giver and Katie was perfect for her. Katie was responsive to our messages and reliable. We will definitely board our dog with Katie again!”

“Anna did a fantastic job caring for my cat for two weeks while I was away. He is slow to warm up, but she was patient, professional, and clearly knew how to make him feel safe and comfortable. By the end of the stay he was totally at ease with her. Super attentive, kind, and reliable! I’d absolutely trust Anna again to take care of my cat!”
“Robin is a 6 Star Pet Sitter! We can't say enough about her wonderful personality and how comfortable she made us fee. It was like we were home with our pets while away. We would not hesitate to hire her again when we are out of town. I highly recommend her as she really was awesome with our pets and even took the time to feed our fish as well. We are totally happy!”
“I immediately felt confident about choosing Kimberly for my cat Mako after reading her profile and reviews. During her first visit, everything went smoothly, and I’m relieved knowing he’ll be well cared for while I'm away longer in July. Thank you 🐾”
“Aliya was very conscientious and attentive to the kitties. She was here every day, checked on the cats, fed them and checked their litter boxes. We would definitely have Aliya cat sit for our babies again in the future.”
“Above and beyond does not begin to describe it!! For a recent visit, there were problems getting into the house and the landlord had to be called, which meant extra time for Priscilla. She communicated excellently and stayed to wait for the landlord to come with the correct keys, then did the planned visit. She stayed because she loves our cats (and they love her). Priscilla is everything you would want in someone looking after your animals: caring, reliable, joyful, and an all around wonderful human. Thank you thank you thank you, Priscilla! You are an angel.”
“Emily is sweet and loving. She clearly loves animals and our two pups love her. Emily is dependable and prompt and quickly responds. We are planning to have her back on regular schedule.”
“She was awesome taking care of our cats! She’s very good at giving oral medication so I felt comfortable with her giving meds to our boy. Thank you so much!!”
“This is the third time that Tara took care of our treasured cat, Charlie. It is not easy to leave your pet for weeks; but when Tara is on the case, we can rest easy. Tara is dependable and a true animal lover. We adore her spirit and positivity. Charlie usually makes a mess, but we always come home to a tidy home. We plan to book Tara again and again. Thanks, Tara.”
“Ashley was awesome taking care of my babies one of them has extreme medical needs and she was great with her pictures were amazing. She cleaned my house. She cleaned the cat boxes. She’s very communicative. I will definitely ask her back again. She was timely and my babies loved her. Thanks dooo much Ashley”
“Lynsey is incredibly reliable and keeps great communication while watching your fur babies. She is our go to sitter and enjoy our trips knowing she is giving our cats and gecko the best care!”
“I’m glad we hired Maddie to take care of our cat Cannoli while we were away. She was punctual each day and spent plenty of time with her. My cat has only accepted 2 other people prior to this but she felt comfortable with Maddie and let her pet/interact with her too. Maddie is very polite, loves animals and responded to my texts in a timely manner. She kept an eye on the house while we were gone and took good care of my plants as well. I highly recommend Maddie to care for your pets!”
About: I grew up with as many as 5 cats and two dogs at a time. I am familiar with caring for most pets including rodents and fish.

About: 4 years of experience working at a veterinarian office and lifetime pet owner with no current pets. Let me care for your pet like I cared for mine. Work from home, single adult with no children or pets(yet🤣) able to walk local with lots of parks and trails if longer walks are desired. Two level condominium so stairs are required unless smaller and I can pick up to go out, able to give medications, baths, nails and lots and lots of love.
About: I’ve always had pets growing up. Over the past 20 years I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, cats, rabbits, turtles, snakes, and hamsters. I love animals more than most humans. My sister is also a vet which is super handy to have. I currently work from home so I can be present and then I have down time I can play and tend to my furry house guest. I have a room for my dogs with a very bring crate, beds and toys. When I have furry guests I can always alternate my dogs in the room or the furry guest into that room. They could also wonder around the apartment as well. My building complex also has a dog park which is nice to run around and play.
About: Ever since I was young, I have had a strong love for animals, especially dogs. I grew up surrounded by dogs and currently have two of my own. Over the years, I have pet-sat for neighbors and friends, and I always enjoy caring for and spending time with their pets. At college I am part of a club where we work with and volunteer at the local animal shelters. There are photos on my profile that highlight some of the events on campus I have volunteered at to raise money for the puppies at the local animal shelter. I do also have experience with horses. My experience has strengthened my passion for working with animals and reinforced my commitment to providing them with attentive, compassionate care. I currently have a lot of availability to be able to take care of your pets. I can board and attend to your pets any day of the week. I have a fenced-in backyard and two dogs of my own as well. I have a 10-month-old male English Bulldog and a 3-year-old female French Bulldog. They are both very friendly and love playing with other dogs. At your residence, I will respect any boundaries you may have and provide the best service I can.
“Michelle's Doggy Day Care is one of the best in my opinion. She only has her dog, also a Charlie and maybe one other dog. Backyard is totally fenced in. Her husband Scott is so nice to all the dogs. So happy I found her. Thanks Rover”
About: I’ve taken care of pets, dogs of all sizes, cats. I’ve given medicine orally, and insulin shots. I have sat for pets for several years for family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. I love spending time with all animals between long walks, hiking, and just hanging out on the couch. I work full time but I telework several times per week. Weekends completely available. When I’m at the office my partner is home 24/7 so the pets will never be alone! I have a lead going from the back deck to the shed (across my whole yard) I have two very friendly dogs and cats. I can crate if needed & there is space available if your dog needs to decompress alone without other animals. I slowly introduce animals to make sure everyone coexists well. All dogs are fed separately to avoid any food aggression. We have an over sized, fully gated and covered back deck that the dogs can also hangout on with us safely.
“Isabelle was great with Jimmy! We just moved to the area and she was able to watch our dog for the day and she was great about sending updates and letting us know how he was doing.”

“Rachael did a great job with my dog Harry today! He came home happy & tired so that's a good thing. He ate his dinner quite heartily too, ha, ha! I'm looking forward to having her come back again hopefully on a regular basis for walks & see if we can get some weight off Harry as he is overweight for his size right at this stage in life. Thanks so much Rachael!”
“We met Katie for a meet and greet and scheduled a dog walk together. I have 2 rescues who are both anxious and get nervous with new people.

I will definitely be booking with Katie again.”

About: I have over 4 years of experience pet sitting for dogs, cats, and small animals. I currently house sit regularly for a family in South Kent, which has helped me build strong routines and trust with both pets and owners. I currently work in the Washington/Kent area pet sitting monthly for a family in Kent and babysitting in Washington. I am looking for additional work whether that be walking/feeding or overnight stays. I’m very respectful of my clients’ homes and keep everything clean and organized, just as it was left. I also prioritize safety by making sure pets are secure and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health.

“Theresa is the best! She provides highly individualized care and is so kind and easy to work with/ communicate with. She is very observant and competent with dog behavior and is the perfect match for our sweet energetic 11 year old boxer mix!”
About: Hi! My name is cade I’ve had a dog most of my life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve also spent a lot of time helping friends and family with their dogs, from walks to full-day care. I’m very active and love getting outside, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and attention. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I treat every dog like my own. I’m available most days of the week and always aim to provide reliable, safe, and loving care. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to be flexible to meet your dog’s needs. I’m available most days of the week for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. I have work on Saturdays, so I’m typically unavailable that day, but with enough advance notice I can sometimes make arrangements. During the week, I have a flexible schedule and can provide consistent, reliable care, whether it’s daily walks or extended stays I mainly care for pets in their own homes to keep them comfortable and on their normal routine. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I can also board at my home if needed, but I do have a friendly dog, so your pet must be dog-friendly.
About: When I was 10 I joined a dog training program through my school, that’s where my training experience began. I provide a premium, low-volume dog care experience for owners who want their dog to have more one-on-one attention in a calm home environment. Your dog won’t be just one of many in a crowded space. I keep my care more personal so each dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. I have a big yard for dogs to enjoy, but my indoor space is smaller, so I am very intentional about keeping the number of dogs low. That means I can focus on your dog’s comfort, safety, and overall experience much more closely. This is a great fit for dogs who do better with a quieter setting and for owners who value quality of care over high-volume boarding or daycare. I generally only take one to a few dogs at a time unless they are from the same household. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs. I took care of my childhood dog for 17 years of her long, beautiful life. I have experience working with small senior dogs specifically and I know all the little things that they appreciate. I also have experience with large dogs and can handle very big strong dogs. I also love hiking with dogs so if you have an energetic dog you need to burn off energy I am your guy. I have an acre yard with a fenced in front yard in a nice area. Any dog that boards with me would be treated like my own dog and let out very frequently to go to the bathroom and play outside. I would always remain home with your dog. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m currently a fully remote student so I am fully available. If I board a pet I will be with them full time to make sure they receive the care they deserve. I have a fenced in front yard, and a good amount of unfenced land in the back. My dog is very friendly and would keep your pet great company. He loves dogs and cats. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but would love to give your dog the pet experience and treat them like my own. I live in a nice are and have great access to the woods nearby as well.
About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course! There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or for play. And there are multiple parks in the area too. At yours, it depends what you need.

About: I've been working with animals for over 10 years. I love them all! I've done pet sitting for all types of critters over the years...from rabbits and ferrets to chickens, dogs and cats. My goal is to keep them happy while family is away. A happy pet is a stress free pet. Whether it be walks, cuddles on the couch or ball in the yard, we will do what's needed to be content. Having experience in a veterinary setting, I'm also qualified to administer medications to any pets that may require it. I'm the mother of 2 beautiful girls. We presently have 3 rambunctious cats and a guinea pig in our home. We just lost our beloved dog at 17 years of age. We all enjoy crafting and hiking in our spare time. I currently work in a 2 doctor animal hospital. I have a talent for multitasking. I can stay over (house sit) or depending on location, make up to 3 visits daily, as needed. I have complete respect for the homes of allvpets and their people. I also will take the trash out, pickup their waste in the yard or clean litter boxes, bring the mail in and water the plants.
About: Hi! I’m Nicole, a 27-year-old animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m confident in providing attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m friendly, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time playing, walking, and bonding with animals. I look forward to meeting you and giving your pet the care and attention they deserve! I am normally available Wednesday and weekends, For more descriptions and availability check my profile information, can’t wait to meet your family! ! ! I am currently available on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays only, and I make sure to dedicate focused, quality time to each pet during those days. At the moment, I don’t offer care in my own home since I have multiple pets. However, I’m happy to provide care in your home or take your dog out for walks. I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment while sticking to their usual routine.

About: My name is Kristina Leigh. I recently turned 42 years old ( in human years) I have spent the majority of these years sharing my life with dogs. I have experience working as a groomer, working at a pet store, and I also have Emergency 24hr Veterinary Hospital Clinic experience. I took classes at Northwestern CT Community College in the Vet Tech program. I have loved 3 amazing senior sweet rescue pitbulls throughout my adult life, and countless four-pawed friends in between. I am not a stranger to exotic reptiles, amphibians, and small rodents of all varieties. This includes my lifetime passion for fresh and salt water fish care. I am very calm, gentle, and patient when it comes to caring for senior dogs and nervous pups. I have basic first aid pet knowledge, but most importantly I have common sense. The most important thing to me personally, is to completely put your mind at ease. Your pets are in great hands. I know and understand as a pet parent the worry that often comes with being away from your pet. That being said, I can guarentee that proper care, respect, and instructions will be shown and followed with your animal and within your home. But I am certain that you will feel at ease by how your pet behaves in my presence. I love animals, and they know it. Trust and respect are incredibly important for me when I am choosing who cares for my pet, my dog is my little chubby dumpling princess. The absolute best is what I ask and expect, and that is what I give to your own little buddies. I have my own transportation, and can accommodate new changes in schedule in a reasonable amount of time. My schedule is flexible, and so is my character. I am more than willing to help create a solution when one feels impossible. All you need do is ask. Things happen; life happens, and hopefully you will feel that choosing me as your pet's Auntie makes things much easier for you. I take the safety of your furry family member very seriously I have training experience walking bouncy puppies, "pully" pooches, and slow older doggos. I am patient, calm, and know my surroundings at all times during the walks. I can help teach your dog proper leash etiquette if it is wanted I absolutely love spending time around dogs and animals. This is my passion, and if I could do this for free everyday, I would. I have plenty of time to put towards the care of animals. I have a detailed schedule that I follow, and everything is organized and on track. I understand that while caring for animals, extreme care must be taken. I have been called over-protective when it comes to my own pets. But it is for their own protection. Unfortunately, they lack the legal rights that humans have. I am very careful when other animals are around (especially leash-less wildcards coming in hot towards myself and the dog I'm walking ) therefore, it is my choice to not allow strangers to pet any animal I am caring for. Similar to working dogs. There are too many negative examples of pets becoming unfairly removed from their homes because of some untrue accusation. An example is this: You've definitely seen dogs " smiling" to their owners. Some dogs just learn that behavior, and it is far from aggressive behaviour in their minds. Now say someone asks to pet your dog on a walk. The dog smiles, and it is misinterpreted as aggression, person is scared, maybe they act in a way that is embarrassing once they realize they aren't in danger. Maybe they create a scenario in their minds where they were bitten and then they want the " violent" dog put down. and then that is where the mess begins. Safety first!

Communication was easy and consistent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. Sampson is pretty easygoing, but it was clear he was treated with attention and kindness. We will definitely book with them again.”
“We had such a great experience with Jennifer who care of our dog, Daisy, for almost a week. Jennifer was very communicative throughout the week - keeping us updated throughout our trip with thoughtful messages and plenty of photos showing Daisy relaxed, happy, and clearly enjoying her time with Jennifer and her family. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Daisy was in such caring and capable hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jennifer again—highly recommended!”
“She was absolutely lovely! I felt completely comfortable trusting her with Frodo. She kept us updated with adorable pictures, and it was clear that he was getting plenty of play, attention, and love. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’ll definitely be booking with her again next time!”
“My two pups had an overnight with James and his family. We have been looking for a new sitter for more than 6 months since ours moved to another state. The girls came back happy and tired. I got updates and photos while they were with him. We will be using James again.”
“Outstanding! Alan and Luis provided extraordinary care for our Black Lab mix Annie while we were on vacation for a week. They are truly the best! Compassionate, friendly, caring, trustworthy are just a few words to describe Alan and Luis. The house is beautiful with a gated fence and a "kiddy pool". Annie truly enjoyed her stay and playing with the other guests as evidenced by her disposition when I picked her up and the the daily photos. I will always check first with Alan and Luis in the future when I need a sitter for Annie.”
“This was Rae's third stay with Tina and Jordan, and once again they were absolutely wonderful. As repeat clients, we already knew Rae would be in great hands, but they still exceeded our expectations. They sent plenty of photos and videos throughout her stay, which we always appreciate, and it was clear from every update that Rae was happy, comfortable, and treated like part of the family. Seeing how excited she is to be with them gives us so much peace of mind when we're away. Tina and Jordan are kind, communicative, and genuinely care about the dogs they watch. It's not easy leaving your dog behind, but knowing Rae is with people who love and care for her as much as they do makes all the difference. We wouldn't hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”
“Cassandra did an amazing job caring for our 4 year old English bulldog for 8 days. Our bulldog is quite stubborn with several medical conditions and she administered all medications and went above and beyond so we can travel without him for the first time in 4 years. Cassandra sent us daily updates and was very quick to respond to us and helped put our minds at ease while away.”
“Robin is always so wonderful with our dog, Adelaide. She does regular drop in visits with her so when we need boarding services, Robin is always our first choice! She shows our dog so much care, attention and love.”
“Rich was a joy to meet and to care for our 2 pups! We loved his daily puppy pics & videos. Our Lucy loved Rich & our big shy guy, Percy, who soon settled in, too. Great experience at the house of Rich and his two fur babies.”
“Valerie and her daughter Maddie were amazing for Jameson's first stay at their home. We received several updates and many pictures during his one night stay. Her dogs are super sweet and Jameson enjoyed their company. She has a beautiful property for hikes too. Jameson will definitely be back.”
“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!”
“Katie was so kind and caring with our sweet senior dog! Our dog needs a gentle, patient care giver and Katie was perfect for her. Katie was responsive to our messages and reliable. We will definitely board our dog with Katie again!”
“Elizabeth is the absolute best with our dogs! Our older dog was having some GI issues and she went out of her way to cook for her and keep us updated. When we picked her up the issues were resolved and our dogs were so happy!!! The updates she gave daily were a great comfort and she was extremely responsive ☺️”
“We had a great experience leaving our Cocker Spaniel Alfred with John. Every part of the experience was excellent — John offered to meet us and Alfred the week before the drop off; when we dropped Alfred off John said he was going to spend some one on one time with Alfred to get to know him. It was easy and our dog loved his visit. We’ll be back again for sure!”
“Wow, my daughter Nina (My dog is my daughter)- had the bestest stay ever!! Jill is now my Goddoggymother !! She sent photos daily, updated me on her activities, and my pooch came home so happy and at ease. I didn't sense any separation anxiety that I was thinking i'd see... she was just a happy clam... I was so hesitant on getting a sitter online, but after meeting with her, seeing her beautiful home, and getting that feeling of animal lover from her- I was set- and I was RIGHT... book this lady here, she's worth it!! Jill I will be brining Nina to visit Tucker for a doggy play date.. hugs!”
“Jillian was a great sitter! We were nervous about leaving our pup with someone new but she was great. We checked in frequently and she was quick to respond with updates and photos!! We will be booking again!!”
“Loretta was absolutely amazing! We went on a family vacation, and after Duke struggled with anxiety and had to be moved twice while in someone else's care, everything changed once he was with Loretta. She made him feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment he arrived. It was such a relief knowing he was in caring and capable hands. Loretta truly knows how to care for pets with patience, compassion, and genuine love. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and we'll definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family!”
“Jessica was great at watching Gwen! She was able to accommodate our last-minute request after another sitter cancelled. She was very communicative about Gwen’s stay and sent plenty of photos and updates. She took great care of our little pup!”
