About: Because I’m here to take care of everybody else’s kids. My name is Amaya, I have been caring for all kinds of animals for about 10 years now. It all started when I moved in with my best friend in high school, her and her mother at that time had dogs, cats, rats, tortoises, a frog, etc. After graduating high school, she started working at an animal rescue near our house and quickly became a manager. Over the years I helped her care for all of the animals she brought home, and now that we no longer live together, I’ve found that I miss the excitement that caring for animals brings to life. I figured I could spend my extra time where it’s needed. I work full time and can watch pets over the weekend or go for walks before or after work. I work M-F my schedule varies for now I can care for pets in your home however is necessary, I am able to easily crate dogs or corral cats if needed. Very used to using gates and keeping doors shut if necessary as well

“Susan was so wonderful! Super sweet and took great care of my Ollie! She even came early and spent some extra time with him! Highly recommend her and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

About: Hi, I’m Julianne. As a lifelong animal lover with more than 10 years of experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, I know how important it is to ensure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether it's playful walks, cuddles, or sticking to their specific care routine, I’ll treat your pet like one of my own. Reliable and compassionate, I’m here to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Let’s make tails wag and purrs plentiful! I work part-time, which allows me the flexibility to provide overnight pet-sitting in your home whenever needed. For dog walking, I’m available on select weekdays and weekends. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I ensure your pet’s environment remains familiar and stress-free by following their routine, providing plenty of attention, and respecting any specific care instructions you provide. I maintain a secure and clean space, keep a close eye on their behavior, and offer companionship to make them feel safe and loved in your absence. Trust is key, so I communicate regularly with updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Communication was a little difficult, and we benefited from a flexible schedule, but they got my normally reserved cat to open up and play with them, so I can wholly believe that they were taking the absolute best care of my pet.”


About: Mature and reliable dog sitter. My first job was walking Mrs McKensie’s Scotty dog when I was 12. I love dogs and decided to switch from Airbnb to Rover for doggies. You can trust me with your beloved canines. They will have the run of the house, couch, and human or doggie beds!! I have an older terrier mix and had a Weimaraner before him. My house has 1/2 acre of land with a lot of shade. Experienced with small and large dogs, accurate medication delivery, walking in dog groups or running free on the beach. I’ll follow your lead. I understand how important trust in a pet sitter is when you want to escape for a few days or weeks! It would be a privilege to welcome your pup in my home. I am a college professor who works remotely. So I will be home with your beloved doggie for MANY hours a day. I also love the beach and the many walking doggie walk areas in Westerly including Avondale, Moore Woods, Ninigret park and all local beaches when permitted. Again you KNOW your dog— I’ll follow your lead. I have a large shady yard, several play areas and A LOT of toys. My terrier mix is chill now that he is 12 and he loves other doggies! I am a MOTHER HawK and will never let your doggies outside alone or at night without a leash or my watchful eye to keep them safe.

“Erin speaks dog! It took no time for her to win approval from my shy pup. She is also a good communicator with humans. Erin is punctual and respectful, plus she is great at remembering my dog’s needs.”


“Nick was everything I could have asked for and more when it comes to someone watching my dog while I was away. Right from the beginning, he set up a meet and great which I thought was so professional and thoughtful. He wanted to make sure that my dog would feel comfortable with him. He was right on time for the meeting and came prepared with questions on how he could provide personalized care for my dog. While I was away, Nick gave me detailed updates on how my dog was doing and provided amazing quality pictures of her. From start to finish Nick made me feel comfortable and confident that my dog would be safe, cared for, and happy. I will definitely be requesting Nick in the future. I recommend that everyone does. He is wonderful. I cannot thank him enough for providing quality and excellent care for my dog while I was away. thank you Nick!!”


“We’re new to the area so we don’t know anybody who could watch our spoiled felines while we were away. Verca took the time to come introduce herself, meet the cats, and chat. We were nervous, especially since one of our cats has anxiety but, even he warmed up to her by the second day! We’ve booked her for our longer trip later this month too!”


About: I currently have 1 cat and 1 dog, I watch my brother’s puppy every week and have taught her many tricks. I also take my bestfriends dog on a hike once in awhile I’m working part time so I have plenty free time to be filled! After 1pm on Fridays, and before 11am on tuesdays & Wednesdays! I have mondays and sundays off I regularly walk my dog and feed her throughout the day. When I watch my brothers puppy I take her on long walks and run around in the yard.

“Thank you for taking care of my Amber, Morgan! She is full of activity and radiates happiness, when I get home after your visits. Obviously, she enjoys her time with you, and I appreciate it and your dependability!”


About: I’ve always owned a dog since I was born. I grew up with a beautiful german shepard and currently own 2 mixed breed rescue dogs. Some people call me the animal whisperer because whenever I go to their house their dog/cat runs to me and wants to enjoy my company. I don’t have professional experience with pets but I did personally train my two dogs, and they are very well behaved and listen to commands. I’m currently working part-time while searching for a new steady full-time job. In the mean time, I felt like taking this opportunity to supervise other owners’ dogs when they’re in need and when I have free time to make some extra cash would benefit everyone. I own two dogs, Heidi and Bailey. Heidi is an absolute sweetheart and very down to earth. Bailey is also adorable and just wants to show love, however she was a rescue pup and suffers severe anxiety, ptsd, and separation anxiety. While my two dogs do get along with each other, Bailey can get quite protective and aggressive with dogs she has not met before. There have been times where in a large open space she was able to calmly meet other dogs. I would be able to come to my client’s house to pet-sit but would not be able to bring my client’s pet to my house just for the safety of the situation and our pets.

Constance G.
“I have thanked my lucky stars to have connected with Connie G.. We met one another while walking our respective doggies and all 4 of us became pals. Connie has often volunteered to take care of Moose ( my very shy and finniky kitty) for weeks at a time and has done a stellar job. My doggy ( Duffy) adores Connie and practically leaps out of the car when he sees her. She is herself an enthusiastic, patient, tolerant and extremely kind pet owner with plenty of love left over for doggies other than her own. I highly recommend Connie as a dog walker and sitter. Any animal under her care would, like myself, be lucky to have found her!”

Nickolas has been a lifesaver for us and our two dogs! He's very professional, personable, and communicates with us regularly about his drop-ins. Our dogs love their time with him, and we feel relieved to have someone like Nickolas taking care of our four-legged family. We highly recommend him as a trustworthy and reliable caregiver for your fur babies!

Pip and Oliver love their new friend, Julia! She was responsive and went out of her way to come meet us before the day she looked after them. Julia clearly loves dogs as much as they love her! We would definitely ask Julia to care for our “boys” again without hesitation.
