Dog Sitting Wethersfield

About: The best part of any given day for me is usually seeing a dog or cat. I’ve been recommended by friends and neighbors to take care of their lovable critters and figured I’d give Rover a try! I am currently working part time and have plenty of flexibility when it comes to pet care opportunities. I like to spend more time rather than less when it comes to lovable pets. I enjoy playing with pets if they are the playful type. If not, then I’m comfortable just being there with them. Sometimes they just don’t want to be alone. But if the zoomies kick in, I can keep up!

About: I provide loving, attentive pet care, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while maintaining routines, exercise, feeding schedules, individualized attention, and clear owner communication. (Bilingual) Habló español Pet care fits into my routine part-time and per diem, allowing me to dedicate quality time, flexibility, and focused attention to each pet without feeling rushed. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I keep environments clean, safe, calm, and provide regular updates to owners for peace of mind.

“Katie is incredible! She took excellent care of our cat, Mittens. She went above and beyond to take care of him and he absolutely loved her. Don't hesitate to book Katie, she's the best!”

“This was the first time I booked Le'Andra to do daily check-ins on my cat Gabby while I was out of town. She was great! Le'Andra always stayed in communication with me by text. And she did her best to still take care of my cat while also dealing with the storm and very cold temperatures we recently had. Le'Andra is nice and very friendly. I would definitely request her again the next time I need a cat sitter, and would also recommend her to anyone considering booking her on Rover.”

“I had a day trip into the city and needed someone to stop by my house to take the dogs out and be with them for a short period of time. Thankfully Joanna was able to help out and allowed me to be gone for most of the day. Nice to have someone who is responsible and can be trusted. Thanks again Joanna!”

About: I have been a human to many dogs for the past 14 years including volunteering as a foster for three local organizations. I believe animals are a part of our family and should be treated with care and respect. I have trained puppies, cared for elderly dogs, injured dogs, and foster dogs. I have a particular skill in helping dogs get comfortable and acclimating to a new environment. I’m experienced in administering medication to pups and supporting animals who have separation anxiety. My partner and I both work from home and are available throughout the day and evening. We have two pups of our own so pet care is a part of our daily routine. I am typically up early with my puppy around 5:30AM and we begin our day with a nice morning walk. After a morning feeding, on a nice day, we sit outside and the dogs play while I work on the garden or have my morning coffee. My pups are fully integrated into my day and I divide my tasks for the day around their walk, play, and nap schedule. I seek to provide clients with what they need to ensure their comfort (the pets and their humans alike). I seek to understand your pets needs, routine, and your needs (i.e. updates, pictures, etc.) to ensure you feel secure with your pets care. I believe when I am hired to help care for your pup, we build a partnership that requires communication, understanding, and deep empathy. From caring for senior dogs to the messy puppy phase, I have had a breadth of experience in caring for pups.

“Janelle provided care for my doodle and is exceptional. Lola enjoyed her visits and I felt completely at ease knowing my pet was well taken care of from a professional pet sitter. Janelle is very accommodating and easy to work with. Highly recommended and I will definitely continue to request her assistance in the future.”

About: I have had animals of my own since I was 10 years old, growing up with both a dog and a cat (as well as hamsters, birds, and fish). I have experience taking care of pets of family and friends. I also have 7 years of veterinary medical experience working as a veterinary assistant and then a veterinary technician. I have just graduated Veterinary school and am taking some time off before starting my first job as a Veterinarian. Would love to spend some of this time caring for your pet! I graduated from school this summer and I am taking time off to spend with family and friends before moving for my first job! So, right now I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends! I have 7 years of veterinary medical experience and have graduated from veterinary school which has trained me in animal behavior. I know how to tell when an animal is happy, anxious, scared, sick, etc and I know how to react appropriately to these situations.

About: Hi all! I’ve been pet-sitting since very young (age 10), having experience with various dog breeds and sizes as well as cats. Feel free to reach out so we can connect! I currently work per diem, so I have plenty of free time to care for little ones. I tend to have open availability, even for last minute requests! I am very open and able to follow any requests concerning your little ones. I understand that every pet is different when it comes to their needs, so I am very accommodating and willing to learn how to best care for your baby!

“Chloe is fantastic. The cats were happy and everything was taken care of while we were away.”

About: Combining my love for animals and the outdoors with photography. I live in a very green peaceful area close to downtown Glastonbury with lots of space for sniffs and walks, in close proximity to many trails we can explore. My schedule is flexible, currently am a full time student and M off for the summer which allows more time for structure with feeding, walking, hiking, and playtime. Will make sure your dog receives all the love , care , and attention they deserve when you are not available to them . 🐶

“Very prompt, following detailed instructions. Thank you!”

About: I've had dogs for the last 15 years. Oreo, my most recent fur baby, just went over the rainbow bridge a year ago. He was a rescue and had behavioral problems and anxiety but with daily medication and a lot of love he really overcame his issues. Because of that experience I'm comfortable administering meds if needed. I work in a school so once school is out I have more flexibility in my schedule. I can provide walks or snuggles as needed I cannot provide services in my own home at this time but will gladly play and walk your dog at your home when you need it.

About: While my experience is mostly with seniors, I love and have experience with all age ranges. I've also cared for dogs that have had some medical issues and am super attentive to all my fur babies. I currently work full-time, but my hours are extremely flexible. I am in office Thurs-Sun, but my work day can end anywhere between 8am & 3pm. If I have pets in my home, I do provide a bed, feeding bowls, snacks, toys, and a lot of affection. I have a private park across the street as well as a fenced in backyard, depending on what the needs are. I am also located near Bushnell Park in case some extra running around is needed. I am good at giving medicine, if need be.

About: I have helped train multiple puppies, and currently care for both a senior dog and a 5 year old very large dog as well. I have cared for pets in all settings, from a college residence hall to a several acre farm. I work a corporate job that allows me to work from home two days per week. This allows for a more flexible schedule and daytime visit during my lunch if necessary. Weekends I generally spend with family or with the animals I am caring for! I do not take pets into my home, as I do not own my home, however I would be more than happy to go to your home, or allow your pets to play with mine if you’d like. My dogs are gentle and fun, and have never had any issues with other animals or people.

About: I grew up with pugs, and for the past 17 years I have had three foster fail pitbulls and multiple fosters that have gone on to loving homes. I have rescued three Mama pitbulls from terrible breeding situations, and their rehabilitation was a testament to my love. I have taken on personally multiple boarding dogs through friends reccomendations, and now that I have an empty nest, I am ready to share my home with your loved ones. I currently work only part time, so I will be here to spend a lot of time in the home caring for my boarding pets. My household has no fenced in yard, but I can give multiple walks per day, as I am a very active person. There are multiple adults and children in the home, so your fur babies will be getting A LOT of love. :) I live in a safe neighborhood and a safe neighborhood in Wethersfield, and will be home frequently to provide a high level of care for your beloved pet.

“Tiarra was excellent with our pet. She was able to calm our dog during our time away. He had never been left alone in his life. This was a big deal!!!! Tiarra will definitely be my “go to” when we need services. She did an amazing job & we tipped 😊”
