Dog Walking in West Haven

“I have had great experiences with Shaira walking my 2 puppies!! She has a lot of patience, she always shows up on time . I love the Rover card with pictures and information about the walk. I definitely recommend her and Rover!!”

“She was great and we were so grateful for her walk with our dogs! We booked on only a couple days notice and were still able to get a meet and greet! We recommend her!”

“My sister has helped care for our family dog Xane for years and has done a great job. She is very attentive and loves playing with him! She did a great job walking him, feeding him, and giving him medicine.”

“If I could leave Jen 6 stars, I would. She is not only communicative and easy to work with, she’s also so kind. I don’t know about you, but that is so appreciated when you’re stressed about getting some last-minute care for your pup. She’s also great with Jax and he loves her. Highly recommend contacting Jen for fur baby needs!”

About: My name is Jordan and I am 21 years old! I am a passionate pet lover and a full time online college student studying social work ❤️. I offer heartfelt pet sitting and dog walking services for pets of all different shapes and sizes 🐈🦮🐩🐕‍🦺. When you choose me to watch your furry family member I promise to shower them with love and attention 😊. Your pets won't just be in capable hands; they'll be with someone that genuinely cares for their happiness and well being. ❤️ I am very flexible and I drive so I also offer pickup/dropoff! You never have to stress about flight changes/traffic or if life just gets in the way I am always home studying! 🤓 I am currently a full time online student so I can choose whenever I complete my classes which gives me full flexibility in my pet care schedule! I am the most flexible pet sitter ever! Firstly before any appointment I ensure that my home is pet proofed, removing any potential hazards or toxic substances. I secure the windows, electrical cords, and keep small objects out of the pets reach. I also will make sure your pet always has access to clean and fresh water. Regularly refilling their water bowl throughout the day to keep them hydrated. I will also engage your pet in physical activities to maintain their health and wellbeing! For example taking your dog for walk or playing games with them. For other types of pets I will also provide interactive toys for mental stimulation. I also do not mind grooming your pet according to their specific needs. For example brushing their fur, trimming their nails, cleaning their ears. Overall I see pets as children and will protect and care for them as such! ❤️

“Jeff did a fantastic job taking care of my boy! I highly recommend him. I’m always very anxious leaving Scout when go away but Jeff made me feel at ease.”

About: I have been living with and taking care of dogs and cats for the majority of my life, but only have 3 years of paid professional experience with animals. I’ve worked at a doggy daycare/ boarding facility for cats and dogs, which helped me gain experience with many different sizes, breeds, tempers, medications, etc. I also work in childcare, but will always make time to stop by and take care of your pets! I am almost always available for overnights. Overnight pricing includes 8pm-6am, along with two 30 minute drop ins or walks during the day. Even when working other jobs, I will ensure your pet gets their needs met. I will always be sure to follow you and your pet’s routine and rules, as you know your pet the best! I want your pet to be as comfortable and happy as possible while in my care.

“I can’t say enough good things about Alexis. She was fantastic with my stubborn, anxious girl. It was very clear from the beginning that Alexis knows how to handle dogs. She sent me a ton of feedback and pictures, and it looked like my Roxy had the best time during their walks. Amazing!!”

“Eric's dog is very happy and well behaved, which is a testament to Eric's great love and care for dogs. He provides structure and fun and lots of love, enjoys long walks, and is super reliable. I trust him completely with my dog.”

“Amber watches our dogs and elderly cat regularly for weekends away, She really cares about them and they seem to really like when she stays with them. Daggett our finicky eater, barely gives her trouble even when he's decided the latest kibble isn't up to snuff and Norbert has adopted her as his comfort person when he gets the chance. Gizmo, our 16 year old mostly blind tabby follows her around and likes to use her as a pillow. All and all Amber is a great caregiver and I can not recommend her enough.”

“Brittany is fantastic!”

“Jeanne was so good with my two pups! She was so kind and caring with them! She went above and beyond giving them extra love and homemade treats! She took them out for a walk while I was getting married and made sure we had nothing to worry about with the dogs! She made sure to stay a little extra and play with them! Very personal and professional! Definitely will use her in the future!”

“Molly took us as a new customer on late notice. She was amazing with our senior dog and really great with communication. So happy we found her!”

“Betsy is probably one of the kindest persons I know. She took really good care of her own two puppies, and handled my babies like a sweet loving pro. She is highly independent, a sensitive artist, and a multi-tasker. I'd trust her with any living soul. If one has the opportunity to hire her -- they've really 'made-out'. Oh yes, Betsy works her tail off. Thank you , Peggy K. Cross”

“Heather is wonderful! Maizie cozied up to her immediately, and it's super-clear she and Heather have a tight bond even after just a couple of walks (and belly rubs..). And I get to come home at the end of the day to a very happy and calm pup.”

“Joanna took excellent care of our dogs while we were away. She was professional and always communicated with us while we were away. Our pets love her, and we will be hiring her again.”

“Mankamal is so wonderful! We’re so lucky we found her, she takes amazing care of our dog and is very responsive”

“I have known Heather for many years and have always known her to be a kind and loving person, especially to her pets. She is responsible and trustworthy and I would have no concerns hiring her to care for my pets.”

“Kathleen regularly watches our cat when we travel. When Kathleen arrives our cat (Shadow) runs up to her, curls himself around her legs and then flops down to show her his tummy. In the past she watched him in our home, but recently I have begun taking Shadow to stay at her apartment when we go for longer trips. I know Shadow will be well loved and well cared for in my absence.”

“To Whom it May Concern: This is a letter of recommendation for Ms. Andrea Pannone to be a pet sitter for your organization. Andrea is, as you phrased it is, "An awesome human being." She balances her work life with her college studies extremely well, while still having time to foster a rich family and social life. Andrea has a strong sense of compassion for animals. Two examples come to mind: 1.) She was driving home from work last year when she encountered a gaggle of geese crossing the road. She, of course, stopped to let them cross. A car behind her, though, got impatient, and passed Andrea, running over two geese in the process. Andrea was incensed and noted as much of the offender's license plate as she could as he sped off. As soon as the remaining geese crossed, Andrea tried to catch up with him to chastise him, but she could not without endangering herself and others. She called the police with as much information as she had, which, led to an investigation by Shelton's Department of Animal Control. 2.) In April, 2021, Andrea was eating lunch on her deck when a bird flew into a picture window. The bird was flying so fast, it bounced off the window and landed two feet away. It lay on the deck with a twisted neck, with one wing flapping. It could not move otherwise. Andrea immediately logged onto Google and researched the best way to treat the situation. She then swaddled the bird in a cloth napkin and placed it in a small box to give it a sense of security. She then called the Shelton Department of Animal Control, but it was closed. Several emergency numbers were given and Andrea called one of them to plea her case that this was an emergency. Her advocacy inspired one of the Vet Techs to suspend her family's dinner to return to her work facility to receive the injured bird-a grey catbird. The Tech administered a pain killer and an anti-inflammatory. Two days later, she sent a video of the bird being released into the wild. The Tech indicated Andrea initiated the actions that saved the bird's life. Andrea has been noted numerouse times for her excellent customer service. She has worked in food service, in several settings, and her managers have always commended her attention to detail, her courteous manner, and her problem-solving abilities. Please feel free to call me if you'd like to discuss Andrea's candidacy further. Regards, Bob Pannone (203) 918-5291”
