Cat Sitting in Willimantic

“Patricia was a fantastic sitter! It was the first time we left our cat at our apartment with a sitter and when we came home he was as happy and healthy as always!”

“Olivia watched our 2 cats for a week and she was absolutely great! She sent us daily pictures of them and let us know everything that was going on! Highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her again next time we go on vacation!”

“Orion an Alex were great. Visit snapshots told a happy story for my pets, who appeared from their hide places (score!), and they definitely know elder pet care. We’ll be calling her again!”

About: I love animals & have had many--from turtles & fish to cats & dogs & goats. Its such a pleasure to tend to them & just be with them. I'm super responsible & your pet will be my priority the entire time you are away. It will be such fun! I am a freelance worker which gives me ample opportunity to accommodate to your pet's and your schedule needs. I have a very flexible schedule. Since I myself have had stay-in-sitters for my pets; I know how important it is to have a truly attentive & responsible sitter in order to relax while you are away. While you are away I will ensure that your pets daily feeding, walking & companionship needs are met. WE will have such a great time together!

About: I love to take care of pets! I am home working in our yard, garden, with our chickens, cooking, generally creating a millennial grandma cozy cottage. I always say there are a few things that make a house a home - animals, plants, and good kitchen smells. We have a dog and a couple cats running around, and, much like our kids enjoy having all the friends come to visit us so that our house is bustling with love! I have to say that I do not allow pets on furniture but worry not; all furry visitors have lots of soft spaces to snuggle, a large fenced-in yard to run about (maybe dig a hole to relax in the the sunshine?), love, attention, treats galore. I am not afraid of larger animals, and I can keep those separate that are either feeling feisty around new friends or shy until acclimation in our fenced patio within the yard. I keep a good eye on everyone, I'm patient with accidents, and its no sweat to accommodate special needs. Please let us enjoy hosting your family at ours, making our house a home. Other than taking my children to and from school, I am home. Additionally, my partner and children are six more eyes, hugging arms & throwing balls. I accommodate my clients' requests and always aim to over-deliver. I am happy to send photos and videos throughout our play date, and respond to questions in a very timely manner.

“I feel truly blessed to have found Heather. She is a great communicator, has tons of patience and compassionate with my fur babies. They are afraid of their own shadows & with each visit they warm up a bit more. I can truly be at ease while I’m away from home knowing Heather is looking after them. I will be using Heather for future visits.”

About: I’m passionate about helping dogs and their owners. I’ve worked with several rescue dogs and understand the special care and attention they need. I recently had my own personal foster pup find her forever home!! Now, I have the time to assist other dog owners with walks and daily routines. Whether you have a busy schedule or just need an extra hand, I’d love to help keep your dog happy and active. Let’s connect to discuss how I can support your pup’s needs! I have a masters degree in social work and work in an elementary school! I love working with kids and giving back to communities. Although, that does make me unavailable for the furry friends until 4/5 pm M-F (depending on your location). I have full availability on the weekends. I can do mornings M-F depending on your location and time. Please message me with any questions or concerns. I am flexible and happy to work collaboratively to figure something out! I always keep the safety of your pet as my top priority, making sure they’re secure and comfortable at all times. 🐾 I also believe in giving each animal an active and fun experience, whether it’s through exciting walks, playtime, or adventures that keep them engaged and happy! 🐕💨 Whatever you might or might not be comfortable with, please communicate that with me! . I am flexible and happy to work collaboratively to figure something out!

About: I have had my own cats and dogs since 1998. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs and cats of all sizes. I have reliable transportation and a super flexible schedule. I am newly retired so I am available all different times of the day. I can help with your pets feeding and exercise schedule when you are away I can drop in most any time if day to check on your pet, provide potty breaks, play time, and walks as needed while you are unavailable.

“Bekka was amazing! She's very detail-oriented and adapted to the quirks of my two cats' quickly. She was a lifesaver over a pretty long stretch over the holidays and took fantastic care of them. I came home to two happy cats. (She's also awesome at taking cat pictures and the updates were perfect.) Thank you so much Bekka! :)”

“My cat Watson is a shy kitty and her first instinct to strangers is always hiding. Brittany was very patient with her and got Watson to warm up to her : ) Brittany is awesome and I very much appreciated her! Will definitely book her again next time when I'm out of town.”

Yushuang L.

“Alie is excellent! She was amazing with Maya & Henry. They can be difficult to deal with because they have different temperaments and both want undivided attention of course, but she was fantastic. Very sweet and gentle with them, and spent a good amount of time walking and playing with them. I will absolutely book her again anytime I need a puppy sitter!”

Nicole T.

“Thomas did a great job with my 2 cats. They are very shy creatures, and don’t come out of hiding for most of the sitters that I have tried, but they were very friendly for him and got lots of snuggles. It is good to know that I have a reliable cat sitting option who my cats really like.”

About: Although most of the time I’m taking care of children at school, I think that sets me up to be able to work with your fur babies with the most attention possible. Me and my sister worked together to train sugar, our grandma’s puppy that she adopted last year, while she was getting comfortable in her new home. I’m currently working as a paraprofessional in a school during the week. I have availability on weekends to check in, walk pets, and make sure they are all set. I can do check ins during the week after 6pm. I will check in on your fur baby as many times as you think they need in order for them to be comfortable. Let me know what times they need to be fed and what they like doing most so I can try to include that in my check ins! I am also happy to take them on a walk so they can get some fresh air and outside time!

“Ana is professional and attentive. and comes across as an incredibly bright woman who absolutely loves animals. This was our first time using a pet sitter and we were So pleased. 10/10 would recommend Ana for check ins or house sitting!!”

About: I have three dogs of my own and they give me experience working with giant and small breeds. I have two mastiffs and a yorkie! I also trained both of my mastiffs from puppyhood to adulthood. I am currently in high school and I have a part time job. The schedule changes per week, but any free time I have, I will dedicate to you and your animals! I will always respect any rules you have for your house and will always do my best to do the task you ask of me!

“Great job with Miah! Thx Lily! Rosanne”

About: Ive been taking Ghost for 3 years now. In the past I’ve helped friends take care of their pets. This is a opportunity for me to learn more about pet caregiving. Pet care is integrated into my daily routine and is a source of joy, companionship, and responsibility. For example, each morning and evening there is a time for Ghost and I to eat feed, walk, and play. Other tasks, such as grooming or administering medication, may be performed on a more infrequent basis. I like to know what basic necessities such as food, water, and shelter, as well as regular exercise, grooming, and playtime are for each pet. Depending on the type of pet, it may also involve providing medical care and regular check-ups.

About: Hi all. I have extensive, life long experiences with a variety of animals. From cats and dogs to pet birds, bearded dragons, aquariums and more! I have experience with newborn elderly, and expecting animals, and their unique needs. We currently have a large (150lb) dog, named Hades. We got him after our 2 eldery dogs (1 was a resuce at 2years old, and 1 I had from 4months to 16 years) passed. We have 3 fairly spoiled indoor cats that are living their best lives. I am also certified I'm pet CPR and first aide. I truly love caring for animals and giving them the healthiest, happiest lives possible. I am currently managing our home/family, and working part time from home. I have plenty of time to fill, and a flexible schedule available for your pets needs! We crate train at home for our pets safety. His crate is his happy place, and I believe can be helpful for creating a sense of security.

About: I'm currently the behavior manager for our dog team at Our Companions Animal Rescue. I work at our sanctuary where I manage a team of competent handlers and I work with reactive/aggressive dogs. I'm currently working on getting my CPDT. If you hire me, I promise your canine companion will receive the care, compassion, patience, and attention they deserve. I'm generally always free Sundays and Mondays. I do work full-time Tuesday to Saturday, so my availability is somewhat limited. I can provide my dog walking/activity assistance after 4pm on those work days, except Fridays. Due to my long history and experience working with dogs, I have the ability to read dogs very well to detect if they are anxious, fearful, or uncomfortable. My goal is to make sure your dog gets exactly what they need, whether it's a certain activity they enjoy, training they need, or a certain destination they love for their outdoor time. Positive reinforcement is the name of the game.

About: I am a huge animal lover and have always helped to take care of many animals over the years. My dogs are trained Canine Good Citizens. I can help you do the same, if you'd like. I have raised many dogs and cats. You can count on me to show up on time and take good care of your animals. I am very happy to add this service for your convenience. I'm available for drop-ins and walking Fridays 8am - 5pm, Saturdays 8am - 8pm and Sundays 8am - 5pm. You can feel safe and trust your fur babies are well taken care of while you are away. I love giving animals lots of loving attention!
