Pet Sitting Wallingford Center

“We were so impressed with the care that Sabrina & Daniel gave to our dog Winston! He can be shy at first, and Sabrina & Daniel gave him the space he needed to get comfortable - so much so he was asking for pets by the middle of the hour. It feels so nice knowing our dog is in good hands while we have to be away from him. Thank you both for your sweetness toward Winston, your reliability and professionalism. Winston can't wait to see you again soon!!”

About: I've been taking care of animals, including horses, since elementary school. I’ve had 3 cats, 4 horses, and 2 dogs throughout my life. I recently lost my dog to cancer, and I’m sure my kitty misses having his best friend around. So if your dog is cat-friendly, I would love to watch them! I currently work from home. Watching a dog for a day, multiple days or scheduling a break to come walk your dog would not be a problem. I’m located close to downtown Wallingford and there are great places to walk (especially with a dog!). I know how to care for all ages of dogs, including the elderly and I have experience giving medications. Requested information about your pet Please let me know the schedule of your fur baby - what time they get walked, what time they are fed, etc. I would like to have your fur baby keep to their schedule as much as possible. Also let me know any little tricks or specifics for your dogs, how long they like to walk, if they like to go out immediately after eating, etc. Please let me know the demeanor of your dog as well - are they aggressive? Get a long with other dogs/cats? Anything else! I want to make sure they receive the best care! :) Since I work from home, I am able to schedule breaks to take dogs out and go on longer walks (even hikes!). I can board in my house weekdays and weekends. I have a cat who misses his doggy sister, so he does well with dogs, but he rules the roost! I can crate dogs if needed. I also try to keep my house as non-toxic as possible (chemicals, cleaning supplies, etc) for the health of my pets.

About: Hello Rover customers, I have taken care of pets since I was a child and have taken care of my family’s fur babies since my kids were small. I am currently left with my senior cat at home but would love to take great care of your beloved fur babies. I am currently self employed and work part time during the weekdays. I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate as needed with enough notice! I have a fenced in yard for my animals if needed but I am very careful in customer’s homes and make sure to not leave without checking my surroundings first so no animals gets out the door.

About: I've loved dogs from a young age and can't wait to have one of my very own. I'm extremely caring towards animals and most of the time would rather hang out with a dog instead of a human. I am always eager to spend time with your dog and will jump at the chance to spend time with pups. I've had a dog since the age of 5 and have petsit numerous times for neighbors, professors, and friends. I call myself the Leslie Knope of dog lovers because I want your dog to feel like the most special dog in the world and will go above and beyond to help them in any way I can. I work remotely and prefer pets to my coworkers. My schedule is flexible and I’m able to make sure your pets get the love and attention they need. I take caring for pets seriously since they’re an extension of your family! I adhere to their routine and make sure they’re comfortable. My goal for petsitting is to make sure you’re at ease on your trip and your pets are content.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my hands-on experience, patience, and dedication to providing loving, attentive care, especially for senior pets. Over the past four years, I’ve cared for my dog, Pancho, who became sick and needed consistent monitoring and extra attention. I’ve helped manage his medication, previously every 12 hours and now every morning, while making sure he has fresh water and receives his meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This experience has taught me how important it is to be patient, attentive, and responsible when caring for senior pets or animals with special needs. I also have a cat, Tyson whom I care for daily and feed on a consistent schedule. Caring for my own pets has helped me understand that every animal has unique needs and deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m comfortable providing extra attention, maintaining feeding routines, monitoring pets closely, and helping with medication schedules as directed. Whether caring for a senior pet, a puppy who needs patience and guidance, or an animal who needs a little extra care, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I primarily work from home, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and provide consistent attention to pets throughout the day. I also work at a gym on Mondays and Sundays. I’m organized with my time and can plan accordingly to ensure pets receive reliable, attentive care. My home is smoke-free and has a fenced-in yard, providing a comfortable environment for pets. I also have a crate available if needed. Pets are welcome on the furniture and will be treated like family, with plenty of love, attention, and care. I’m happy to follow each pet’s routine and accommodate their individual needs to help them feel safe and comfortable. I do have two dogs, Rocky and Pancho. Both are males, ages are 2 years old and 9.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve always loved spending time with dogs and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I also have experience caring for dogs while babysitting for families, including feeding them, taking them outside, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention. I’m responsible, dependable, and would love the opportunity to help care for your dog like they’re my own! I’m currently a graduate student, so I have a pretty flexible schedule with plenty of openings between my classes. This gives me a lot of availability throughout the week, and I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s normal routine! I always want pets to feel safe and comfortable around me. I allow each animal to move at their own pace when getting to know me and give them the time and space they need to build trust. I never force interactions and will always respect your pet’s boundaries while making sure they feel cared for and loved.

About: I’ve lived with dogs all my life. I’ve grown up around them and taken care of them. I’m extremely passionate about working with animals. I am dedicated to this as well As it is the school year, I currently go to university most days until 3pm. I am more then capable of handling a job when needed My dogs are all dog friendly. They interact well with others but I would prefer to watch your pets in your own home. That way your pets feel more comfortable and not overwhelmed

About: I love playing outside and going for walks. I’ve taken care of family and friends dogs for years and will spoil your doggie with attention. As a pet parent who has used Rover in the past, I know what works and what doesn’t (like 11pm drop ins) and I will take the best care of your pet. I work full time from home and so I have the availability to stop by throughout the weekdays to take care of your pet! I also have free weeknights and weekends. I live close to the Farmington canal and can take your dogs for walks as needed! I will always follow your comfort level and will care for your fur babies as you wish.

“Dave is an excellent pet sitter and dog walker. My pup is always so happy to see him. He plays with her with her favorite toys and takes her for walks. Thank you Dave!”

About: I’ve loved being around pets for as long as I can remember, and growing up with dogs taught me just how special they are. Caring for animals is my absolute passion! I am dedicated to providing a safe, loving, and fun environment for your pups, and I can't wait to meet your fur babies! Because I maintain a fairly flexible schedule, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I structure my day around your pet's established feeding, walk, and play schedules. Whether your pet needs early morning check-ins, midday play, or evening snuggles, I'm able to prioritize their specific needs so they stay happy, comfortable, and on track while you're away. Your pet’s health, safety, and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal in my care with the same patience and devotion I give my own. Every pup is unique, so I customize my approach to fit their specific needs—whether that means high-energy playdates, quiet 1-on-1 neighborhood walks, or specialized care for timid and senior dogs. I maintain a secure, calm environment and keep you updated every step of the way with photos and notes for complete peace of mind.

About: My mom ran a doggy daycare out of our house since I was 10 years old. I have worked with dogs, all ages, size , and breeds. I am comfortable with medical administration, all different types of feeding routines, training, and basic grooming. I love going on walks, and I love being outside. I hope your fur baby does too! Pet sitting fits into my weekly routine pretty easily. I go to college in the New Haven area during the week, and I only work on weekends. I’m very flexible with last-minute needs, and as long as it doesn’t conflict with my one class a day. I have two labradors and a tabby cat. I also have worked for a doggy daycare. As one would imagine I have seen many different feeding routines, walking routines, play needs, and more. I am adaptable, and animals trust me very quickly.

About: I managed to survive caring for my Samoyed from birth to full size. He was and still is high maintenance, and I believe he has prepared me well. I am not currently employed and am preparing for law school next year. I am available any day of the week at any time :) I stick to a strict food and walk schedule with my dog so that he does not have to wait any longer than he should. I keep an eye out for hotspots or any irregularities, and address it right away. Most importantly, I treat every animal like my best friend.

“This is the second time that Jacqueline watched our cat while we were on vacation. Jacqueline is a wonderful cat sitter - very communicative and responsible. She sends the best pictures of Juniper for us to enjoy while we’re away! We feel so comfortable leaving our cat in her care. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: Hi, I have been taking care of animals for over 25 years now. I also use to breed German Shepherds for eight years. I am a stay at home mom and Rover, is my full time job now that my kids are teens. I use to foster dogs and other animals before I had a family and worked on two farms, So I have a lot of experience with different types of breeds, temperaments, past abuse, and very skittish animals. I have much confidence when it comes to taking care of special case dogs, senior dogs, newborn/Whelping puppies and more. We live in a house with over two acres of land, with lots of lovely areas to walk, including a cemetery that is located over the fence in our yard. It has lots of roads that are quiet and safe. I find this great because they gets lots and lots of exercise, and its great for dogs that may be frightened of loud, busy streets, or leash reactive dogs. We also have doggie pools ,( when it's hot) if your pup loves water play! My German Shepherd and Papilions are highly trained and socialized . They are extremely well behaved, as well as amazing house dogs and companions to my autistic son. HOWEVER, your dog/s and my dogs will NEVER come in physical contact with each other. . We are highly active family, so lots of play and exercise fits in our schedule everyday. While hosting your pets at my house, they will receive the same attention and affection as if they were my own dogs. I always sleep in the same room as the pups ( unless told otherwise) to keep they company and comfortable during their stay. We will have lots of potty breaks, keep right on track with feeding schedule. Everyday we will have lots of play time, down relax time, and brain stimulating fun as well. I will take them on long walks at the cemetery that is behind the fence of our home. I ONLY do family boardings, I do not mix other family dog/s. I find no matter how socialized they are, being away from home on top of being with unfamiliar dogs can always have a possibility of disaster. My goal is to keep everyone safe! I will take up to 2 dogs from the same family. Thank you for understanding. I absolutely am an animal lover, and it's the only job that makes me feel happy, confident and I have such a passion for this work So your pets will become my family when they are with me. I will always protect them and care for them like they are my own. I will always send pictures and videos of your furbaby while they are in my care. I am very good at keeping in contact with of my clients via their choice of email, text message or phone/video calls. Please ask me as many questions as you like, I am eager to learn about your fur babies! My dogs are on strict, daily routine that doesn't interfere with my work schedule. However my dogs and your dog/s will not come in physical contact with each other. We have two wings of our home and the main house where are dogs are. Down the hall we have the ..... Huge Doggie Suite!! Equipped with a mini fridge for meds and wet food, with lots of toys, beds,blankets, a big doggie couch, Sink, Raincoats and snow jackets, AC AND HEAT. Lots of windows and sky lights, screen windows to slide open to get that fresh crisp air in the morning and gentle breeze at night. Spring and Fall are best for those times. But we will have fun all year round because I am a huge outdoors person. I also have doggie Tv playing everyday!!😊 My schedule most of the time will be wide open, which only a few days here and there that I won't be available. I will follow all your directions to a T, and you will never be disappointed by my services! I look forward to all my new pup and "hooman" clients.

“Alex watched my dogs for several days while I was out of town and took fantastic care of them. She played fetch every time she went by, sent several pictures, and let me know anything out of the ordinary. I would highly recommend letting Alex take care of your fur babies!”

“Michelle has watched my babies a few times now and she has been great!! Love the fact that she sends me pictures and answers any of my messages in timely matter.”

We’d love to help ensure your pet is well cared for when you’re out and about — with with walks, check ins, or sitting, as needed!

We’re available daily, on weekdays and many weekends—and can work with you re: any specific scheduling needs. We’ll find the best walk and play spots near your home to give your pup plenty of time outdoors, exploring, finding smells, and socializing with other dogs (if preferred).

About: I had a dog since I was in 2nd grade, for around 15 years. I have experience in young puppy care and senior dog care. Just getting into the Rover business, but eager of learn and would love to help! So I’m currently a 3rd Resident Physician at the hospital, so I do have more time on weekends to do sit ins and walks. I miss having a dog and taking care of one so this is my way to give back! I also can do late night sit ins or walks after my shift which usually ends at 630pm. I have an apartment with a doggy park and a pet cleaning and bathing area. The doggy park is fenced with toys and water. I’m great at following instructions and will take great caution and care in others home.
