“Maria did an AMAZING job caring for my senior dog. She managed to keep up with his feeding/meds schedule, and kept him safe, and loved. I definitely recommend her care, and will rebook her services whenever I need to. Thank you so much Maria. Gustav is all healthy and perky.:-)”
“Caring and loving family. She kept me abreast of my pup being sad that we weren’t around, and continued to go out of the way to make sure he was ok, just sad. Don’t hesitate to have them watch your pups.”


“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!”

“La mejor cuidadora que he conocido extremadamente comunicativa, cariñosa con nuestro perrito 🐶 siempre pendiente en todo momento y manteniendo al tanto de cada cosa con nuestro perrito la recomiendo al 100% muchas gracias definitivamente volvería a dejar a nuestro tequila con ella”

“Will was wonderful. He was extremely flexible with meet and greet, drop off, and pick up times. He was helpful at drop off with handling of dogs and supplies. He provided pictures of stay too. All around pleasant and professional.”

“Wonderful experience boarding our dog! Kristen allowed us to do a meet and greet with her cat before booking, to ensure that her home was a good fit. Despite being Christmas week, Kristen was super accommodating and made us feel comfortable leaving our dog with her. She was great at communicating and took amazing care of Raya! ❤️”

“Nickimmy was great-totally recommend. She was super responsive when communicating about a nd treated Milo like he was her own family pet. My fiancé and I were very nervous to leave Milo with someone new to him, as we are anxious pet parents, but we both felt immediately comfortable leaving Milo in Nickimmy’s care. She provided frequent pictures and check ins, lots of walks and time outside, and she even comforted him when he woke up in the middle of the night howling bc he missed us! We will definitely leave Milo with Nickimmy again and can’t recommend her and her sweet family enough.”

“Arlene was so sweet when we met and my pup, Kiara, immediately fell in love with her. She took such great care & made sure to send me pics and videos throughout the day. Will definitely book again!”

“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.”

“Lori is great with our cats. She doesn’t just stop by to feed them; she brushes them and plays with them too. She goes out of her way to make sure their routine is maintained as much as possible while we’re away and we greatly appreciate it.”

“Lennox came home happy and exhausted. A good sign she had a great time with Wendy and her new friends! I appreciated how quick Wendy was to respond and the great care she gave our pup!”

“Karen was fantastic with our two dogs. We needed to board them unexpectedly, with very little notice. She responded quickly and was able to take them and was even able to extend the stay when we needed more time. She sent frequent updates and photos. Our dogs looked happy the whole time. We have one dog who has anxiety and she looked so comfortable with Karen. She definitely went above and beyond to ensure they were well taken care of. Highly recommend her and would use her again in the future.”

“Ruth is a fantastic, caring dog sitter! She followed all of my instructions and kept me posted on how he was doing via text and photos. We felt comfortable knowing Rocky was in good hands, and that Ruth and her daughter were giving him lots of TLC. When we picked him up he was happy and clean! Will definitely book her again.”

“Anjali is absolutely incredible—the best dog sitter we could ever ask for! Poncho completely adores her, and so do we. From the very beginning, Anjali made us feel 100% comfortable and confident leaving Poncho in her care. She is professional, trustworthy, and has such a genuinely warm, loving personality. We never worry for a second because we know Poncho isn’t just being watched—he’s being truly loved. We honestly can’t imagine leaving Poncho with anyone else. When he stays with Anjali, it feels like he’s staying with close family. We are beyond grateful to have found her and cannot recommend her highly enough!”

About: I've owned dogs all my life and have dog sat in some capacity for family and friends for the last 10 years. I love dogs and treat each like my own. I'm reliable, flexible, and ready to work on short notice during summer. I'm willing to stay and house sit if my schedule permits. I love going for walks and hikes with pups and am not afraid to roll around on the floor for some playtime. I understand how important your pets are and will treat them as you would! I am willing to administer medicine if necessary and am flexible to other needs of your pet. Look forward to meeting you furry baby(ies)! I am a full time teacher. During the week I can let animals out early mornings and then am usually out of work by 3. My weekends are usually free. I will abide by house rules for your pet at home. If you use gates or electric collars please let me know. Happy to bring them on walks if needed.
“Wonderful couple! They give your pet lots of love and ensure that your pet is happy and well taken care of. They send photos and updates on a regular basis. I would recommend highly to use this couple for dogsitting your loving pet! Amazing! I am definitely having them again!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sherry was absolutely amazing while taking care of my dog, Levi, for 10 days while I was away. From the very beginning, she made me feel completely safe and at ease, which means everything when trusting someone with your pet. She was incredibly loving and attentive with Levi, and it truly showed in how happy and comfortable he was in her care. Sherry kept me updated constantly with messages and updates, which I really appreciated and looked forward to. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would 100% trust her again. Highly, highly recommend!”

About: Family and friends have trusted me to care for their family members for 3 years now with enough space, and a park close by for plenty walks per day, there is always plenty room for endless naps and play time in or outside. As someone that works from home full time I will be able to care 24/7 if needed any day of the week, potty as many times as needed and as many walks needed. There is a field across the street that is the perfect potty spot for any dog size, a park with plenty grass to run around in, 3 walks a day 1 hour each

“Christine was from the start very thorough, detail oriented and very caring. This was our first experience with her and she did not disappoint. Christine is a very kind and thoughtful person and it showed in her daily reports and photos she sent. She cared for our kitties for 10 days and they are not used to being alone for that long. Christine took extra care to be sure they knew she was there to help them without overwhelming them. We felt very comfortable that they were going to be in good hands and we know they were. Thank you Christine! Will definitely be booking with you again.”


“Tatum was soooo great with my quirky dog! She totally went above and beyond to make sure my nervous nelly was comfortable enough to eat and do her business. She also kept me updated on everything that was going on with my pup and my kitty. I’ll definitely work with Tatum again!”

“Maria did exceptional with my baby Snoopy! I was really scared since he suffers from extreme anxiety (He’s a rescue dog). He did great with Maria. She kept me informed and would send me pictures. She was very caring, gentle and comforting. Snoopy did very well with transition. I will definitely rebook with Maria.”

“I’m always appreciative for Will. He goes way above and beyond to make sure Romeo is cared for and loved. He’s always so kind and thoughtful when giving care to my little guy. Thank you so much Will and I will be using your services again! ?”

“Kelly is such an awesome dog sitter. She is so nice and shows love to all of her pawed clients. She sends updates and great pics everyday. Jax gets so excited when we pull up to her house because of how much he loves her. I know Jax is well taken care of. We are so thankful that we found her! And you will be too. :)”
About: Hi, I’m Luz 🤍 I’m a proud dog mom to two fur babies: my sweet 4-year-old Cavapoo and my playful 1-year-old Toy Poodle. They are my world, and that love naturally extends to every dog I welcome into my home. I do things a little differently here. I keep my clientele small and intentional. I believe every dog deserves focused, genuine care, not just a place to sleep. The families I work with aren’t just clients, they become part of my family. That’s the kind of relationship I’m here to build. What your pup can look forward to 🐾 From the moment they arrive, they’re surrounded by love. My two boys are friendly, social companions who make every stay feel comfortable and fun. We have a private fenced dog park right at our building, so there’s plenty of space to run, play, and be a dog, every single day. I’m also an active walker, averaging 50+ miles a month, so your pup will always be well exercised and happy. When it’s time for a little pampering, I offer a full dog wash including shampoo/ whitening shampoo, CHI detangling spray, brushing, blow dry, and a finishing perfume so they go home looking and smelling their best. 🛁✨ (Dog wash is available as an add-on for an additional fee.) Pet laundry is included by request. Their blankets, beds, and favorite things go home as fresh as they do. Throughout every stay, you’ll receive real-time photos and updates! Peace of mind matters just as much as the care itself. Services offered: 🐶 Dog Boarding 🐶 Dog Walking 🛁 Dog Wash (add-on) 🧺 Pet Laundry (included by request) 📍 Meriden, CT | Meet & greets are available by request for shorter stays. M&G’s are required before booking for longer stays to ensure a healthy and playful environment. ⚠️ NO CATS — no exceptions. My eldest is not cat-friendly and the safety of every animal in my home always comes first. I’d love to meet your pup and earn your trust. Feel free to message me anytime. 💌 I’m home full-time with a completely flexible schedule, which means your dog is never left alone or waiting on attention. Whether it’s a long afternoon walk, an evening stroll, or a cozy night in, I’m always present and available. I genuinely love being home with my babies, so boarding fits perfectly into my lifestyle. Your pup isn’t coming to a business, they’re coming to a home where someone is there, all day, every day. 🤍 The safety of every dog in my care is something I take seriously and never compromise on. All dogs are kept on harnesses and leashes during walks and outings. Free roaming is only permitted within our private fenced dog park. Socialization with other dogs is handled with care and only takes place with prior approval from the pet parent. Treats are never given without authorization, and all allergies, sensitivities, and health conditions are documented before every stay. Please note that breed and weight restrictions may apply. Feel free to message me for more details before booking. 💌
About: I started my career as an animal rescuer and dog trainer, I am very personable when it comes to taking care of animals. I have taken care of range of animals, from newborns to full grown, from past 15 years and I believe that there’s nothing more rewarding than their love. I also prepare home-made organic food and treats for dogs and cats which are loved by them and appreciated by their parents. I have an expertise with animal behavior and nutrition as well. I like to give dogs a pee break every 3-4 hours. Walking, feeding, exercise and lot of cuddles will be given all throughout the day. At our house, all the dogs are treated as if they are my own babies. Treats are given as permitted by parents. I have spare new blankets and toys for all dogs, unless you bring/prefer your own. Please feel free to ask for anything that’s not mentioned. (shower and grooming can be provided at extra cost) When boarding dogs at my home they will have space to roam around in the house (wooden floor) and I can take them for long/short walks as needed/recommended. I always walk dogs on leash and the duration of walk will be set by the pet parents. I love spoiling my fur guests with toys (with permission). When boarding your pet overnight, I encourage sending them with a blanket with your scent as it makes the separation easy on your fur babies. The environment in my house is nothing but love and we are soft spoken people so there’s no loud noise in the house ever. The surrounding area is very safe and very nature oriented. We have sidewalks which are well maintained year round. And since it’s a gated community, you can feel the ease with your pet security. I have taken care of over five dozen dogs and every dog loved our place. Most even feel sad when they leave.
“Almost a month with Marc & I’m very pleased! It’s nerve racking leaving your little guy with a stranger but I can honestly say you can trust Marc! Max has come home happy and CRYING to go back for another visit, I’ve got videos to prove it lol!!. Marc has been flexible with my inconsistent schedule which is extremely helpful for me! Over-all Max is happy, SAFE and the price is amazing! What else could you want…..”

“Kristen was great with our 3 month old puppy. She was flexible, sent us plenty of pictures, and responded quickly. It was a serene getaway for him and he looked very comfortable in her home. She took him on walks and he walked really well with her. On the second day drop off Kameron was wagging his tail as we walked inside and went straight for a prized green toy he loved. The pictures she sent were beautiful and she was very easy to talk to. I highly recommend her would absolutely use her again.”

“Kirsten and Doug took the absolute best care of our puppy. They are genuinely caring, conscientious and trustworthy. I would definitely recommend them with no reservations to anyone in need of assistance with their pets.”

“Jenna was great with our anxious and jumpy pup. She took him on walks, spent good time outdoors, sent regular updates, and had a great, calming demeanor with him. She was very flexible even when we came to her last minute. Definitely recommend!”

I am available from dog walking or in home visits after 5:15pm during the week and anytime on weekends. I think the best way to care for a pet is do exactly what they're comfortable with.

I do have a dog of my own so I also want to make sure all your pets get along with my Jax, who loves other animals.

Daisy is a pandemic puppy that is not used to being around other people and dogs, but Cecilia was excellent with helping her feel comfortable and sent us lots of pictures. Cecilia’s pup Luna played well with Daisy too. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“Jade has been very conscientious in caring for my dogs and has had an intuitive understanding and playfulness in all of his interactions with Clancy and Schuyler. They adored and bonded with him as if he has been a family member for their whole doggy lives. More importantly, Jade is the first dog sitter in whom I have had complete confidence that he would follow all instructions regarding not only caring for the dogs but also caring for the house with professionalism and attention to detail. When you go on vacation, you don’t want to worry about your pets and house. You’ll be able to do that with Jade. He’s a very responsible, competent, and kind person.”

“Karlena is great, I can tell because the dogs went crazy when they saw her. Karlena is prompt and communicates well. I just moved here, and she is making the dogs feel super comfortable during the day when I'm at work and that is a huge weight off of my shoulder. She is a sweet young lady and I'm glad she wanted to walk Hanry & Jazzy. Thank you Karlena. :)”

About: Hello! I've been an avid dog lover since I can remember. I have taken care of family and friends pups when they are away.

She gave my dog lots of love & good exercise, and it's clear she really loves dogs & cares a lot about them.”

“Will was wonderful. He was extremely flexible with meet and greet, drop off, and pick up times. He was helpful at drop off with handling of dogs and supplies. He provided pictures of stay too. All around pleasant and professional.”

“Wonderful experience boarding our dog! Kristen allowed us to do a meet and greet with her cat before booking, to ensure that her home was a good fit. Despite being Christmas week, Kristen was super accommodating and made us feel comfortable leaving our dog with her. She was great at communicating and took amazing care of Raya! ❤️”

“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.”

“Lori is great with our cats. She doesn’t just stop by to feed them; she brushes them and plays with them too. She goes out of her way to make sure their routine is maintained as much as possible while we’re away and we greatly appreciate it.”

“Lennox came home happy and exhausted. A good sign she had a great time with Wendy and her new friends! I appreciated how quick Wendy was to respond and the great care she gave our pup!”

“Karen was fantastic with our two dogs. We needed to board them unexpectedly, with very little notice. She responded quickly and was able to take them and was even able to extend the stay when we needed more time. She sent frequent updates and photos. Our dogs looked happy the whole time. We have one dog who has anxiety and she looked so comfortable with Karen. She definitely went above and beyond to ensure they were well taken care of. Highly recommend her and would use her again in the future.”

“Ruth is a fantastic, caring dog sitter! She followed all of my instructions and kept me posted on how he was doing via text and photos. We felt comfortable knowing Rocky was in good hands, and that Ruth and her daughter were giving him lots of TLC. When we picked him up he was happy and clean! Will definitely book her again.”

“Anjali is absolutely incredible—the best dog sitter we could ever ask for! Poncho completely adores her, and so do we. From the very beginning, Anjali made us feel 100% comfortable and confident leaving Poncho in her care. She is professional, trustworthy, and has such a genuinely warm, loving personality. We never worry for a second because we know Poncho isn’t just being watched—he’s being truly loved. We honestly can’t imagine leaving Poncho with anyone else. When he stays with Anjali, it feels like he’s staying with close family. We are beyond grateful to have found her and cannot recommend her highly enough!”

About: I've owned dogs all my life and have dog sat in some capacity for family and friends for the last 10 years. I love dogs and treat each like my own. I'm reliable, flexible, and ready to work on short notice during summer. I'm willing to stay and house sit if my schedule permits. I love going for walks and hikes with pups and am not afraid to roll around on the floor for some playtime. I understand how important your pets are and will treat them as you would! I am willing to administer medicine if necessary and am flexible to other needs of your pet. Look forward to meeting you furry baby(ies)! I am a full time teacher. During the week I can let animals out early mornings and then am usually out of work by 3. My weekends are usually free. I will abide by house rules for your pet at home. If you use gates or electric collars please let me know. Happy to bring them on walks if needed.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sherry was absolutely amazing while taking care of my dog, Levi, for 10 days while I was away. From the very beginning, she made me feel completely safe and at ease, which means everything when trusting someone with your pet. She was incredibly loving and attentive with Levi, and it truly showed in how happy and comfortable he was in her care. Sherry kept me updated constantly with messages and updates, which I really appreciated and looked forward to. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would 100% trust her again. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Jackson had so much fun with Krystal and her kids! He loved her dog mocha who was super friendly as well. He didn’t want to leave! We will definitely be using Krystal again for future trips”

“Bo and Dom had a wonderful stay with Kelly! She kept us up to date on the many walks and fun activities they were enjoying and sent pictures multiple times a day (which was greatly appreciated, we missed them). She was also very accommodating with a last minute request, communicative, and friendly. I highly recommend Kelly!”

“Maggie took great care of our pup! She is a great communicator, easy to contact and quick to respond. She shared photos and updates along the way. Would highly recommend Maggie, and will use Maggie again for sure!!!”

“This is only the second time I have boarded my dog, and since I’m usually home all day with her, I wanted to make sure I left her with someone who would be home all the time and able to monitor her the way I do. Mariana went above and beyond my expectations! I not only got one or 2 photos a day, but I got updates on what she was doing, and even several videos of her being cute. I cannot say enough good things about the time and attention Mariana gave my dog and me! I will absolutely board with Mariana again the next time I go out of town!”

“We are so grateful for the amazing care you gave our dog! From the very beginning, Careen were kind, reliable, and attentive to every detail. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dog was in such loving hands. We could tell our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout the stay. Thank you for treating our pet like family — we highly recommend your dog care service to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate!”

“I had such a great experience with Erin and her husband Jason. From the start, she was very communicative and caring. She offered to meet and greet in person and followed through on the agreed date and time. I truly appreciated being able to tour the home environment in which my dog would be staying in beforehand. Especially since this was my first time leaving my dog with a stranger for almost a week. The home environment was clean with a huge backyard area that my dog loved. During the stay, Erin sent me multiple picture updates daily. I felt at ease knowing my dog was okay and in good hands while I was away. They were attentive, welcoming, and treated my dog like their own. When I picked my dog up, I could tell she had been well cared for and was comfortable. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter!”
