About: Hi, I’m Arieh — a lifelong animal lover and your pet’s next favorite human! With a background as a strength & conditioning coach, I’m fully equipped to handle dogs of all sizes — from tiny terriers to giant breeds with serious pull-power. But my real strength? Loving care. I grew up surrounded by pets — dogs, ferrets, goats, birds, fish — and I bring years of hands-on experience to every animal I meet. I’m especially experienced with senior pets, puppies, and pets facing health challenges, including giving medications and providing extra patience and TLC. Plus, as an amateur photographer, I’ll keep you updated with adorable, high-quality photos — because you shouldn’t have to miss a single happy tail wag or goofy smile while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and safety are my top priorities. I can’t wait to meet your furry (or feathered!) family member! Pet care fits beautifully into my daily life! I run my own e-commerce business and work remotely, which means I set my own schedule and have the flexibility to adjust my days around pet care — including accommodating last-minute bookings. I’m currently single and love staying active, so taking pets on walks or spending time with them throughout the day feels like a natural, joyful part of my routine. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long walk, or some quality cuddle time, I’m happy to make sure your pet’s needs are met with love and attention. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. When I care for pets in your home, I do everything I can to maintain their normal routine — from feeding schedules to walk times, play, and rest — so they feel secure and at ease while you’re away. I’m respectful of your space, tidy, and always leave things as I found them (or better!). I pay close attention to each pet’s unique needs, whether that means giving medication, monitoring energy levels, or offering extra patience and affection for senior pets or puppies. You can expect regular updates and photos from me, so you never have to wonder how your furry family member is doing.

“Patricia was wonderful from the very first contact! She was willing to help us with everything, and we had a peaceful trip thanks to the way she cared for our dog, Milo. we were able to relax knowing he was in good hands. Patricia is definitely a kind and lovely person, and our dog loved being around her. His anxiety was much better, and we felt much more at ease.”


“Jason was great with our animals. He sent some photos and kept in touch letting us know how everything was going and how sweet our pets were for him. We hope to be able to book him again in the future.”

About: Nice to meet you! I go by my middle name, Amelia. I'm a local physician (with many years of animal care experience) who is looking to pet-sit or house-sit in the Danbury area. I am honest, responsible and attentive. I love playing/walking/jogging with dogs, enjoy some more peaceful time with cats. If you have horses that need care, please let me know as well (I used to care for 30 horses)! I have experience giving medicine, feeding new puppies, caring for older pets etc. I'm open to caring for any kind of pet, so long as the situation is safe for everyone involved. I am very punctual and respectful. I am a good listener and follow directions well. Gigs within 15min drive of Danbury hospital will take precedence unless I specify otherwise here as my sched changes. During the week, 6am-7am and 5pm-9pm is walking availability for individual dog walks and drop ins. Essentially full availability for house-sitting (this is where I shine most)! I work locally, usually in Danbury. I will take excellent care of your pets and/or your home. I am very conscientious about ensuring gates/doors are locked, and that your instructions are followed.

About: Hello Pet Parents! I'm available for pet sitting, dog walking, and house/plant sitting on a one-time or recurring basis; I am available for boarding only if your pets are dog-friendly & potty trained. Certified by the American Red Cross in Pet First Aid for cats + dogs, fully insured by PCI, and experienced with my own 3-legged 11yo rescue dog's medical needs, I am prepared for any emergency situation life may throw our way. I always travel with a first aid kit for pets (and humans too). I have no problem carefully administering food and medicine (including insulin injections) alongside other care for senior and special needs animals. I am local to Cross River (where I was raised) and can travel up to 12 miles from 10518. I can do overnight stays but cannot be present in the home 24/7, as I have my own dog to feed and walk as well. I only host pets in my own home if they are dog-friendly and potty trained. I will always make sure to leave the home leashed (unless going into fenced in area) and ensure your pet gets back home safely & happily.
