House Sitting in Westover, Stamford, CT

“This was the second time Nicole stayed at our house with our dog Buster while we were out of town. We were away for 10 days out of the country and we were very worried about Buster because he has stomach issues. Nicole was wonderful with him! She accommodated his routine and made him feel very comfortable. Nicole was very proactive - she noticed Buster having more stomach problems after a few days and she contacted me to discuss it. Medicine from the vet was delivered and Buster was back to normal! Nicole is very sensitive to his needs, and she did not mind when he woke her up one morning at 4am to go out. Having Nicole enabled us to enjoy our vacation, knowing she would address any issues that come up. She will be coming again to stay with Buster soon!”

“Elvia is an amazing dog sitter! She was available on short notice, which was such a relief. My dogs loved her, she spent plenty of time playing with them and making sure they were happy and entertained. I especially appreciated the frequent updates and adorable pictures she sent, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would highly recommend Elvia to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter for their dogs!”

“Nicole recently watched our dog, Otis at our house. Otis is nervous around new people and she was very good with him until he got used to her. She was very respectful and responsive. Would book again!”

“Heather stayed at my apartment and watched my pup while I was out of the country for a week. Heather took great care of my pup and my apartment. Charlie is a little anxious, but when I got back he was in great spirits as if I hadn’t left. She was able to get him to take his daily pills which can be tricky and provided me daily photo and video updates. Lastly, my apartment was clean and tidy when I got back, as if no one had been there. Would highly recommend Heather for your future pet sitting needs!”

About: I’m an avid animal lover and have been caring for pets since I was 6 years old. I grew up with three dogs and a cat and was always actively involved in their daily care, from walks, feedings, to playtime, and vet visits. I currently have two dogs who live in Florida with my parents, since moving to Connecticut for work I don’t get to see them as often as I’d like. That’s a big reason I’m excited to dog and cat sit — I truly miss having animals around and the joy they bring. I treat every fur baby like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! I work a full time hybrid job with no requirement for being in office and also have half days on Fridays. If I need to be in office, I have an hour lunch break to allow for potty breaks and can flex my time to best accommodate your fur baby. If your pet is more comfortable staying at your house, I can drop by to let them out or stay over if that’s your preference. Whatever makes you and your fur babies the most comfortable. My roommate has a 1 year old Maltese Pomeranian named Dune, who is house trained and very sociable. There are space within my apartment where I can crate your pet away from my roommate Dune or I have space to have them roam if you prefer. I love to play around with animals if they like to play or I can hang around and read my books. Here to make your time away as stress free as possible.

“Hanaya was every bit as great as her reviews said she’d be. I have rebooked. Thank you!”

“Emma was great! She was extremely professional. She took amazing care of both my pet and my house while I was away. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be calling her again. Perfect all around.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14 and I love it. Having 2 dogs of my own I know what it’s like to find quality pet care so I like to provide families with the relief of knowing their four-legged baby is being well taken care of! Through my experiences, I’ve learned how to be attentive to dogs cries, whines, whimpers, etc. and body language which helps me make sure they get what they need. I’m currently a college student and am home for the summer. I work at the grocery store 3 days a week so during those hours I wouldn’t be at the house but other than that I will be there! I can’t leave during work but as my hours are short, it has not interfered with my ability to tend to the dogs! I work with each pet parent to make sure I have all the details of the pet’s schedule. In my home, pets are always viewed as members of our family. I believe that pets require the same love and attention that people do so that’s what I share with my clients as well!

About: I’ve been working with animals for 6 years and have experience with all sizes, breeds, and personalities - from bullies and hounds to chihuahuas and cats. I was part of an agricultural program in high school and spent over a year working in a dog care facility. I have personal experience with Guinea Pigs, Rabbits, Gerbils, and Chinchillas. I truly love all animals and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I currently work mornings and have school at night twice a week, so I will be available all afternoons and most evenings and totally available Fridays and Sundays. I have a cat that doesn’t not get along with dogs just yet, so I if able(depending on client) use the backyard, go on walks, take to the park.

“Alexandra was great! We left her with our 10 week old kitten and she did an amazing job of keeping him entertained and out of trouble. She sent us lots of updates and went above and beyond to make sure that Bergamot was well cared for. We'll definitely be using her again.”

“Amazing! Can’t thank you enough- above and beyond my expectations! I booked last minute labor weekend Vacation and Cinthia was able to not just accommodate the stay but also to come and meet and Greet. Justin has a very high Anxiety level without treating any Medication, An escape artist and very Suspicious.. It was great the way he clicked with Cinthia and felt comfortable she kept sending pictures and descriptions of the day. Highly recommended❤️?”

“We had Donald watch our Irish setter for a week while we were away. He was absolutely amazing! Checked in very frequently, sent lots of photos, and went out on long walks. Would definitely recommend using Donald and will do so again!”

About: Hi, I’m Dagmar - a trusted Greenwich local with 20+ years of pet care experience. My love for pets began in Germany, caring for family cats and grew as I looked after dogs of all breeds and ages for families, friends and long-term clients. I specialize in attentive, one-on-one dog care, including dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I'm patient, reliable, and treat every pet as my own making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. For dogs, I offer structured walks tailored to their energy level - from quick potty breaks to longer neighborhood walks and fun park visits. For cats, I provide thoughtful drop-in care including feeding, fresh water, litter maintenance, playtime, and companionship. I work from home in downtown Greenwich, which allows me to be flexible, responsive, and available seven days a week. You can count on me for dependable care, clear communication, and regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Living downtown Greenwich and working remotely allows me to offer flexible dog walking, drop-in visits throughout the week, with house sitting care available on weekends typically from Friday through Monday. Extended or full-week house sitting can also be arranged upon discussion. When caring for pets, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I carefully follow each pet’s established routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and preferred play or rest times. I’m respectful, tidy, and follow your instructions closely. I always provide updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is receiving attentive, loving care.

“Terrific empathy and a great communicator.”

About: In college, I lived with a very particular (and slightly dramatic) cat named Maisie who somehow decided I was her person. That experience really showed me how much animals thrive when they feel secure, understood, and cared for. Since then, I’ve also cared for friends’ cats and dogs while they were away. I enjoy adapting to each pet’s personality whether that means an active walk or cozy companionship at home. I am currently home full time studying for the LSAT. This allows for a very flexible schedule that’s open to all days of the week. I structure my study time around the pets I’m caring for. I follow all care instructions and routines closely. On walks, I keep pets safely leashed and stay alert to surroundings. In your home, I respect your space and keep your pet’s routine consistent. I’m a non-smoker and always tidy, attentive, and mindful of your space. I’m also happy to bring in mail, water plants, or handle small tasks to make your time away stress-free.

“We could not have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we left, she was incredibly communicative, sending multiple updates every day with pictures and videos that truly put our minds at ease. Shelby always looked so happy and comfortable, which meant everything to us. When we returned home, it was spotless. On top of that, when there was a possibility of a flight cancellation, she immediately offered to stay an extra day without hesitation. She is kind, responsible, and genuinely wonderful. We feel so lucky to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for exceptional care for their home and pet. We look forward to her watching Shelby again.”

“Sarah was amazing with my dog Mason. She helped us take care of him after an ER visit & gave him his medicines & made sure he stayed on a schedule. She also stayed at our house to care for him while we were away and she did a great job. Mason loves her!”

Kristin R.

“I am so glad we went with Katharine to take care of our dog while we were away. She was very thoughtful, caring and asked the right questions. You can most certainly trust Katharine with your pet, and home should you need care in the form of house sitting. Communicative and professional, we would look to hire again. She was terrific”

About: I’ve always loved animals. In Ukraine, my family had a farm where we nursed all types of animals, from kittens and dogs, to cows and chickens. In America, I have two cats and a dog who I grew up with and have taken care of for years. All the times I’ve pet-sit in the past, my clients, myself — and of course, the pets — were all satisfied. My medical experience has bred a pragmatic, thorough and alert mindset, offering a set of skills that I could carry over to pet care. Overall, I love spending time with animals, and I couldn’t imagine a more ideal job than pet-sitting! Currently, I work part-time and fit volunteering in wherever my schedule allows. I’m free on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays, with an open schedule on Tuesdays after 6:30 PM and on Thursdays and Fridays after 2:30 PM. As such, I’m capable of providing plenty of attention to your pets, with a relatively flexible schedule. After years of bathing my cats and dog despite their reluctance, I’ve learned plenty about safety when it comes to handling animals. Giving medications, handling collars and leashes, and stimulating pets is simple for me. I’ve encountered many different situations and I’m equipped to deal with the vast majority. At the end of the day, the pets are my main priority, and my empathy and concern for animals makes me eager to work in any situation.
