“Absolutely 5 stars! From the minute we met Karine and Ryan, we knew they were the right people to care for our dog while we were away. Karine completed a detailed questionnaire at the Meet and Greet which ensured that she knew all of Stanley's needs, routines, etc. When we dropped Stanley off for his stay, Karine and Ryan were friendly, confident and reassuring. Karine sent us great pictures and updates throughout our trip and really made us feel that Stanley was the top priority. When we picked Stanley up, it was obvious that he had really enjoyed his stay - while excited to see us, he was not anxious in any way. Karine and Ryan could not have been kinder to us or our dog and we look forward to having Stanley stay again with them many times!”

“So relieved to have found Rich and Phyllis! Our Zeus looked so happy and busy with all his canine friends - thanks for the daily photos; it made us feel more relaxed during our long trip. When we picked our dog up it was evident that both Phyllis and Rich really cared for and grew attached to our dog. Will definitely ask them to watch Zeus again.”
“Excellent. Will hire Ariel again. Pleasant and capable, she followed all care instructions to a tee for my 17 yr old dog. Responsive to all communications and kept me up to date on his well being, which I'm skitzo about because of his age.”
“Ashley was awesome with Spence! She watched him overnight and took such great care of him. The photo updates she sent were the best and totally put our minds at ease while we were away.

We’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Stefanie was amazing - kind, patient and understanding with our anxious pup's first boarding experience ever, and a great communicator.

Would definitely recommend and we'd definitely book with her again!!”
“Monika opened her home and family to Lucca. He found a little buddy in Monica’s dog Lexi and new experience being with kids as he doesn’t live with any day to day. Monika kept us in the loop with photos and daily texts. Appreciated the meet’n greet before making drop off so easy. Monika is a caring and responsible canine care giver. Can’t recommend her more highly!!!”
“I left my dog, Rory with John for a week while on vacation. He showed his interest and care for the dogs in his many daily walks and play time. A video showing all the dogs playing was sent to us at the end of each day. John talked to the dogs and called them each by name, and they all seemed happy and relaxed. The dogs he accepts are not aggressive and are very social. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation feeling confident that my puppy was being well cared for. My dog came home from a week at John’s both happy and tired. I would highly recommend John for dog sitting and definitely plan to utilize his services in the future. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> My name is Rory. I spent the week at John’s house while my family went on vacation. I was a little nervous. But I had a great time! John took good care of all the dogs there. We went for a couple of daily walks all together, that was fun. Toward the end of the day, we had play time in the yard that John video-taped and put to music. I felt like a star! I would love to go back again. Thank you John and all my dog friends for a fun week!”

Cat caregivers near you - North Stamford
“We love Cassidy! The cats look forward to seeing her, which makes it a little less scary to be away for the week. Thankful for Cassidy and her thoughtfulness, thank you!”
“Hanaya did a great job taking care of our cat for the week - showing up on time each day, sending regular pictures, and communicating well with us. She's a very dependable service provider.”
“Natalia did a great job looking after my cats. They are shy but she did a good job finding them in their hiding spots, and she did a good job communicating with us while we were away.”
About: Over thirty years of cat companionship, and not a single one of my cats arrived by my own design. The Cat Distribution System has excellent taste. My current household includes two cats: Gretchen and Ice. Gretchen came to me as a tiny feral kitten I pulled from under an abandoned car. She went on to live a full and varied life — including a stint as a working mouser on a goat farm — and has now retired into a life of quiet domesticity, which she has fully earned. Ice is a chonker with tummy trouble who would simply rather not. We love him against his wishes. I can handle all the usual care — feeding, litter boxes, playtime, cuddles if your cat is into that. I'm also comfortable giving pills and injections, which not everyone can say. And after three decades of cat companionship, I know cat behavior well enough to tell the difference between a cat just being a cat and a cat who actually needs a vet. That distinction matters, and I won't miss it. Your cat will be in good hands. Even if they pretend not to care.
“We are so grateful to Lisa for her diligent, kind, responsible care. She goes above and beyond to make sure our cats are comfortable and loved while we are away and she is their new best friend in return. Thank you for everything, Lisa!”
About: When it comes to cats I do have an allergy. I have only cat sat for one cat twice. I provided some play time and scratches, from 30 minute to an hour before my allergies kicked in and I had to leave, and feeding of meals and cleaning of litter box.
“Paige is absolutely amazing! She’s incredibly patient and flexible, even with my constantly changing schedule, and always finds a way to make things work. I feel completely at ease knowing Ollie is in her care. He adores her and always has the best time when she visits. It gives me such peace of mind to know he’s so well looked after.”
“Cam is attentive, proactive, and thorough. Our booking occurred during the blizzard, He stayed in constant contact and came to our rescue when we were stranded overseas. Cam is a gem. We will happily book with Cam in the future.”
“Ivon is amazing!! She has watched my little kitten multiple times and he loves her. She loves and cares for him as if he is her own pet. Very trustworthy, reliable and communicative. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Great sitter. Took great care of our cat who warmed up immediately to her. Communication and updates were great, and even picked up a few tricks from her! Definitely will be rebooking when needed.”
About: I have a female morkie who is 8 years old. Since she joined our home at 2 months old, I have been responsible for her training and daily care. With a bag of treats, I can teach your dog basic commands and small tricks. I love dogs of all breeds and sizes and will treat your dog as if they were my own while they're in my care. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule! Mornings, afternoons, and evenings all work for me, it just depends on the day. I’m also willing to do walks and visits in between classes if the location allows time for it. I will follow any house rules provided for myself and the dog. Your pet will always be attended to and well taken care of, with lots of love and positive energy :)
“Annabel did a great job for my 2 cats while I was away for a week. She sent great pictures and even cleaned up when they got into a treat bag one day. Highly recommend!”
“Samantha provided drop in visits for our 3 cats while we were away on vacation. She was super friendly, reliable and an excellent communicator. She was also accommodating to our specific requests and we were able to relax knowing that our cats and house were in amazing hands while we were away. We will not hesitate to book Samantha again in the future.”
About: I have reliably taken care of family, friend, and neighbors’ pets for years. I love spending my time with four-legged friends and being able to provide loving and personalized care that’s catered to specific routines and personalities. Whether it’s on a walk or a drop-in visit, my priorities are safety and loving care. I make sure to communicate with photos and updates so you can be confident your pet is in great hands. With a flexible schedule, I am available every day of the week to structure my time around the pets I’m caring for. Whether that’s a long walk or play time in your backyard, I will make sure your pet is properly cared for. I will give your dog the attention they deserve on walks and home visits. They will be well loved and exercised and I will follow any specific routines or training you may be working on.
About: I have been caring for my clients dogs for over 10 years. I love walking and playing with all animals. I also have my own dog who can be a companion if your dog needs a playmate. I am a fulltime dog walker, have a very flexible schedule and can generally be available on short notice for drop-ins and walks or even on hikes! I am also available for overnight dog/house sitting! All services will be at my clients houses or in their neighborhoods for walks. This allows dogs to be in environments that they are already comfortable with while meeting somebody new.
About: I grew up with two dogs and two cats my whole life! I’ve been a pet sitter to my family members and friends for the past decade and love animals. My job and travel schedule does not allow me to have my own dog full time but I would love to have the opportunity to take care of yours :) I’m very responsible and caring to pets and humans!! I work full time but work from home Thursday/Friday and of course am free on weekends! I can re-arrange my WFH schedule to best suit your dogs needs. When I work from home I typically have very few if any meetings, instead I go on walks or runs and enjoy the outdoors (weather permitting ☺️) I have a fenced in terrace that is 25 x 20 ft for any dogs to enjoy at their leisure when I pet sit! I am very responsible and vigilant as a sitter. My primary concern are the pets I’m sitting and will be very consistent with that mindset for the duration of their stay.

Perfect for high energy dogs - North Stamford
“Leidy and her husband Johanni are amazing!! Their home is so friendly and welcoming, and it’s clear that they treat the doggos they care for as family. So thrilled to have found them.”
About: I have been caring for and grooming dogs and cats since I was 12 years old, and I am comfortable with both dogs and cats. I am always available for pet sitting, I work from home and I am more likely available for the weekdays and weekends to pet sit. I have a big yard that my two dogs love to run around in. My dogs are friendly and can keep your dogs company if you want and if not I can separate the dogs and they won’t have to interact with each otherr, and I have crates if needed.
“My Luna’s new fav house! Barbara is so easy going and very attentive to Luna. Her spacious backyard is a dream space for a busy dog to spend her days! So glad we booked with Barbara and looking forward to the next booking!”
About: I would love to spend my time with your dog. I have previously fostered three dogs for time ranging between 1 week and 2 months. I have also dog sat for multiple puppies and older dogs in the past years. I love energizing walks with dogs and park play. I have also provided care for dogs ranging from 4 pounds all the way up to 80 pounds. Whilst fostering, I have received extremely skittish dogs and have nurtured them to become social with both other humans and other dogs. I am available throughout the week at any time of day for occasional drop in visits as well as walks. My schedule can be flexible based on your specific needs. I am currently taking a break from work before I begin my graduate degree in a few months later this fall. I have quite a flexible schedule! I live in a spacious apartment with two room mates that both have extensive knowledge and experience in watching and owning dogs in the past.
“We were visiting from out of town and needed daycare over the holidays. Laurie was available and amazing. Ollie was safe and happy and she sent lots of pictures to reassure us. How lucky we were to find her!”
“John took wonderful care of our puppy! She is only 3months, so I especially appreciated the frequent updates and pictures. He responded quickly to all of my questions and sent the sweetest pictures. I would recommend John to anyone!”
“Lindsay gave my dog a great time. My dog has a ton of energy and Lindsay's backyard allowed my dog to run around and burn some of that energy off. Communication was very smooth and I enjoyed the pictures and videos! Thanks Lindsay!”
“Daniela was great with my pup! She asked great questions that made me feel confident that he would be safe and comfortable with her. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Josie had such a lovely day with Clinton, his dog, and his son! She got lots of cuddles, time to roam around the fenced backyard, and plenty of window watching, three of her favorite things. Clinton communicated well and sent lots of great photos. I’ll definitely be bringing her back!”
“Kevin was fantastic! This was my first time using Rover, my dog usually stays with family or friends, and he made me feel at ease having Roni with him for the day. He asked great questions beforehand that made me feel confident he would be good at handling dogs. And when Roni was with him for the day, he sent pictures and videos and kept me updated on how he was doing. I will definitely use Kevin again! It made me feel better knowing Roni was at someone’s house, being watched by someone who’s really good with dogs, and had dog friends to play with.”
About: Hello there, Let me talk a little bit about myself, since I was a kid, I grew up with so many kinds of animals, horses, chickens, ducks, birds, and about 8 dogs. But there was always this connection between me and the puppies. so, time went by so quick, and I got older and i decided to get me the most beautiful Husky. I never thought this boy would teach me so many things. I had some struggles training him, but I accomplished something that I thought it was impossible to do with huskies. now that he is getting a little older, I decided to get him a sister but this time I went with a German shepherd. every time I get around new people, they always ask me if I'm a dog trainer because the way my 2 babies are well behaved. So as all of you can see or image, I have many years of experience, I have been around dogs my whole life, I just love them if I could give my live to safe one. Thank you I work from home between 4AM-11AM so after that I free every day. or sometimes I don't even work and have plenty of free time to play with puppies. I make sure there's always that morning walk, make sure they eat and do their business outside, but specially I make sure they feel the love from the human so they can feel safe.
“Elaine is wonderful. My dog loves going to her home for day care. He comes home and is completely exhausted in the best way possible. Last time he was there, I picked him up at 5pm and he was ready for bed at 6pm and didn’t wanna run or do much of anything but sleep till noon the next day. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!”

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Campbell! 🐾 I know how important it is to find someone who cares for your pets the way you do. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you’re away, I bring patience, reliability, and plenty of love to every visit. I’ve worked with pets of all sizes and personalities, and I pride myself on making sure tails wag, paws stay happy, and owners feel at ease. Think of me as your pet’s new best friend (with a pocket full of treats). Right now I’m lucky enough to have a very flexible schedule, which means pet care can be my top priority. I’m currently between jobs and excited to dedicate my time full-time to caring for pets. Whether it’s weekday walks, weekend drop-ins, or last-minute needs, I have the availability (and energy!) to give your pets the attention they deserve. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my first priority. When I’m in your home, I follow your routines closely so your pet feels secure — from feeding times to favorite toys and walking routes. I always double-check leashes, doors, and gates to keep them safe, and I’ll send plenty of updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind while keeping your pet happy, loved, and cared for. My home is a safe, pet-friendly space where your furry family member will feel welcome.

I have a fenced in backyard and 2 social and lovable dogs that they will become instant besties with and can keep each other company!
“We are so grateful to have found Joseph. Our mini poodle is quite skittish around people other than family, and Joseph showed great patience and understanding with her, allowing her to get comfortable on her own timeline. Now when he arrives, our dog is thrilled to see him and comes home from walks happy and relaxed. We also appreciate Joseph's dependability and reliability; we trust him completely.”
About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs—young, old, big, small, pullers, you name it. I will take care of your pets as I do my own.

I live in a house with roommates, but I have a floor to myself. I have a cat at home, so I can provide a feline companion during boardings.
“Wendy is fantastic. She walked my dog all week (who isn’t always the easiest dog to take on walks) but did a great job and gave him a great workout. She showed up on time, went for good leisurely walks and let me know if anything was amiss. One day my pup wasn’t feeling well and she even stayed late to make sure he was ok and settled in! Would definitely recommend especially if you need a repeat walker.”
“Regi is friendly, reliable, and great with our 5 month old puppy. She is teaching him how to walk and she is so patient and loving with him. We are so grateful to have found her. We can’t recommend her enough!”

“I was so fortunate to have found Anastasiia to watch our dog Axel when we traveled to Europe. We had booked a sitter who cancelled - leaving us with very little time to find another over the holiday season. We had Anastasiia was reasonably priced compared to some of the other sitters available (watch out for price gouging during the holidays). I had booked someone who was less expensive but when we did the meet and great, I saw that they were using Rover to run a kennel: 10 dogs kept in an 8x6 garage - with no one home! I took a chance on Anastasiia because she is new to Rover. When I met her in her home, I could tell right away that Axel would be in good hands! The home is charming and so was Anastasiia's partner :-). During Axel's stay he got to go to the park and play and even got to go on a hike. Anastasiia asked me if it was ok to take him and how he was in the car. The pictures of their adventure made me smile :-). I was sent lots of pictures during Axel's stay - most either playing or lounging lol Axel was in good spirits when we picked him up. I felt comfortable and confident that my family member was being given good care while we were overseas. I highly recommend.”
About: Except for college, I have spent my life looking after and caring for dogs and cats. My wife and I are retired, 68 years old, been living in a four acre home in New Canaan, Ct. for 34 years, miss the three Australian Shepherds we raised, but now want to travel. Our best option we think is to bring in a boarder for companionship. Both of us are now retired, living at home full time. Our three Australian Shepherds have now passed. They loved the four acres we have to run, and the four thousand square foot home for comfort. We have a working invisible fence if your dog is comfortable with that, if not, plenty of space for walking, a fenced pool, and we belong to the Country Club of New Canaan for great winter runs. We have four acres of lawn for your dog to run, and our plan is to board only one dog per visit, unless your family owns another. This is the best way to keep your dog healthy, happy, and safe. That and we live in a no outlet quiet street, with years of experience keeping dogs safe.
About: I’m the type of sitter who pays attention to the little things — routines, favorite toys, energy levels, and comfort needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, and I adapt to what each pet needs. I believe pets do best when they feel safe, loved, and understood, and that’s the environment I strive to provide. Plus, you can expect plenty of updates and photos! Pets fit easily into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I plan my schedule to make sure pets get the attention, exercise, care, and consistency they need — whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just company and cuddles. I aim to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel happy and comfortable. I care for pets by creating a safe, calm, and loving environment while following their normal routine as closely as possible. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, supervised playtime, walks, feeding on schedule, and a comfortable space to relax and feel at home. In a client’s home, I respect their pet’s routine, environment, and instructions to help keep things familiar and stress-free. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, dietary needs, and comfort, and I make sure owners receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
