About: I am an extreme animal lover with years of unique experience. I currently have a two year old Labradoodle named Bear! I have worked at a vet office for four years where I was responsible for boarding, grooming, walking, general health, and feeding for dogs, cats, and birds. I also am an experienced dog trainer that has trained six dogs. One of those dogs became certified to be a therapy dog for children! Because of the pandemic I decided to extend my services! I know that it can be nervous feeling leaving your dog or cat with someone unfamiliar with them. Please be assured that your loved ones will be well taken care of and will be given the attention and care that you expect! Thank you very much!
About: I have been a dog enthusiast for as long as I can remember. In my early twenties I found myself dog sitting often, and began volunteering at the Connecticut Humane Society as a dog walker and trainer. My passion for animals and nature fuels my desire to pet sit and dog walk full time. I am a student whose primary income is in dog walking and pet sitting. This means I am committed to giving your pet the attention and care they deserve! I have a family of my own but their routine is flexible. *I am on campus Mondays and Wednesdays, on these days I am still happy to house sit, however, I will be unavailable from 8am to 7pm (unless the booking is closer to campus than home). Please take this into consideration when booking, I will also discuss this with my clients before scheduling a meet and greet! I am comfortable working in other peoples' homes. I love to spend time with animals in their natural environment, and find myself tidying when I'm there. I will often leave your home cleaner than I found it! It's in my nature to take care of the spaces I inhabit, and I do so with absolute respect. I take great care to protect the privacy of my clients while I nurture their pets and living space.
About: Hello! I have been around pets my entire life. Having a Siberian husky as my childhood companion, until his recent passing, has made me grow a bond for animal care and taught me many insightful tips. I have learned how to care for animals by dog sitting friends, colleagues, and neighbors pets and continue to grow my interest in cat sitting through feline-loving friends of mine! Whether it’s a playful pup or a serene feline, each furry friend holds a special place in my heart, and I enjoy every opportunity I get to provide them with love and care! I am a recent graduate from Quinnipiac University. My weekends are very flexible, working from 6am-2pm Monday through Friday. I try to be as flexible as possible with my schedule! Please let me know if you have any questions! I will make sure that your furry friend(s) are taken care of with safety as the number one priority! My goal is to make sure they can continue their day to day routines, while staying alert and aware of any unusual activities that could occur. Above all, I will invest time and patience into nurturing a bond and mutual respect with your companion(s)!
