“Megan is amazing! My dogs were well taken care of and so was my house. I left a clean house and came home to a clean house, that’s saying a lot with my messy dogs. She was also wonderful about keeping us well informed.”
“Sam was an incredible puppy sitter. This is our first puppy so I am overly cautious with her. Within the first thirty minutes of us leaving, sam sent us a plethora of photos and updates, leaving my heart at ease. She updated us very frequently with updates and cutesy photos of our girl. She let us know her overall report when we came home, and watched her to make sure she has no separation anxiety with us. It was such a relief to have her, and I will absolutely be using sam again.”
“Samantha had a wonderful stay with our pup! I appreciate her friendliness, professionalism, neatness, attention to detail, and love for animals! She sent photos of our pup each day with reassuring and positive updates. She was easy to reach and responded quickly to texts. She left a lovely thank you note, which was such a nice unexpected touch! Our home was in perfect order when we returned. My pup was a happy boy when we returned! I’ve just booked another week with her!”
“Elena is a passionate professional and did an outstanding job taking care of our 2-1/2 yr old female Doberman. We highly recommend Elena for overnight dog sitting or walking and will not hesitate to hire her again. We are grateful to find such a kind and thoughtful sitter who is knowledgable and respectful in every aspect of performing her job. Thank you Elena! We appreciate you!”
“Brien was amazing! We have a special needs dog that requires medications three times a day. Brien was up for the challenge and took the best care of our bubba. Great communication while we were away and our house looked great upon returning home. It was so nice having some peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely ask Brien to come back!”
“Sarah was great housesitting for our pup and cat. We loved the photos and it was clear that our dog and cat had their playtime and cuddles and were well looked after.”
“Annie was so wonderful with Sunny -- giving lots of love and keeping us up-to-date with photos and messages. It was our first time away from Sunny and Annie made it easy. Thank you!!!”
About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart and I genuinely love caring for them and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I spent over 12 years riding horses competitively and caring for my sweet horse, Blue, which taught me so much about patience, responsibility, and building a real bond with animals. These days, I’m lucky to share my home with two playful yorkies, Tucker and Toby, who always keep life fun and full of cuddles. I’ve also cared for two adorable hamsters in the past, so I know how important the little things are, whether it’s a cozy cage setup or just extra attention. I’m super detail-oriented and always ensure every routine, meal, and belly rub is right. Whether your pet is young and energetic or a senior in need of extra love, I’m here to care for them like family. I am a rising Sophomore at Bryant University but besides one morning summer class, I am free all summer during the days! I am a morning person, but I am happy to stay late to accommodate different fur-babies' schedules. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I'm happy to follow each pet’s individual routine, from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles, so they feel right at home, no matter where they are. I live in an apartment in Deer Valley in Ellington, so I am happy to travel anywhere to walk or care for your animals in-home. If they get along with small dogs, I am also happy to do a doggy play date with my two friendly yorkies!
“Amber was wonderful with our dog Hunter. Hunter warmed up to her in no time and they spent a nice three days together! We would highly recommend her.”
“Very caring dog sitter that our little Cavalier greatly enjoys staying with. Spends quality time with her, helps her eat, and relayed how she was doing often. Very satisfied with how she sits with my little dog.”
“Alyssa was so great house sitting my baby post spay, great communication and my bby loved her!”
“Juliana did a wonderful job watching my two pets. One temperamental cat and a lovable energetic Aussie. I felt confident leaving them in her care . Thank you again Juliana 😀”
About: I have always been surrounded by pets; enjoy giving plenty of attention; and have cared for their well-being (bathing, administering medications, monitoring recuperations after illness/surgery). I work full-time (leave home at 7:30 a.m. and I am home by 4:30 p.m.) and have my evenings and weekends free. I am available for check-ins, walks, and stays. Your companion would be cared for by keeping to his/her routine/schedule, keeping them safe, following any additional instructions, and giving them lots of attention and playtime.
“I definitely recommend Abmari! She stayed with my dog, Everest, at my house and took excellent care of him. She took care of my house like it was her own. She gave me updates on Everest and sent me photos and videos. I’ll be using her again!”
About: For the past couple of years I have been pet sitting for a colleague and friend of mine and I absolutely love it. I have experience with dealing with dogs with some special needs and I am more than welcome to learn. The youngest I have had was 4 years old and then all the way up to 15 years old. Let me take the load off your shoulders and be able to take care of your fur babies. I’m just really here to pet your dogs. I have a very flexible schedule due to my job. It allows for myself to create my own schedule so it not only makes my life easier but could very well make yours too. Weekends I have availability and during the week it varies! I care for the pets in my own life allowing them to roam wherever they desire. Besides some closest but they always make their way .
“Sydney was everything you hope for in a in-home dog sitter! Prompt, professional, communicative and most importantly our pups were relaxed and well loved! Sydney was left with a long list of medications and directions…she was eager to insure she had everything aligned before we left. Sydney even offered to stay at our home u til we arrived back - late in the evening! We will definitely be looking to have Sydney back to care for our home and our high maintenance girls ??”
“Sandy was lovely - came and did a meet/greet the day prior, was early for both, and super nice all around. We will definitely be asking her back!”
About: I have been asked to take care of dogs/cats while family have been out of town on many occasions I have 3 of my own cats and niece and nephew cat (yes) lol also two puppers that are family a newphie and great Pyrenees. Animals are my family and I feel happier with them than I do with people. Depending on location I can be available when needed.

Thank you !

“Adriana is great with animals, I would trust her with my furbabies anytime. She once watched my mini Australian Shepard who is very hyperactive and was able to handle his energy. She is very caring and loving as if these pets are her own. If you have any doubts in your mind about leaving your pets in her hands you shouldn’t. To be honest she’s pro bye more excited to meet the dog than she would the owner 😊. You’ve made a good choice in this pet sitter.”
19. Phi T.
“Phi has been taking care of my two dogs whenever I travel out of state. He’s reliable and attentive, always ensuring they’re well cared for. One of my dogs requires special facial cleaning, and he does a fantastic job keeping her nice and clean. I highly recommend him.”
