House Sitting Willimantic

“Orion & Alex did a wonderful job taking care of our two corgis. They sent photos with regular updates every day. They thoughtfully brought up any issues quickly. Our dogs seemed very relaxed around them both.”

About: Hello! I’ve been caring for animals for many years and have experience with both cats and dogs. I currently have two cats, and I also had a wonderful dog named Morgan, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, reliable, and happy to adapt to whatever makes you and your pet feel most comfortable. If you’d like me to meet your pet before the booking, I’m more than happy to do so. If your pet prefers a calm environment, extra playtime, a specific routine, or simply someone to keep them company, I’ll gladly follow your instructions. I understand how important it is to maintain their normal routine while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, including weekends. Feel free to reach out, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your preferred schedule. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities! During every visit, I’ll carefully follow your care instructions, including feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning the litter box (for cats) or picking up after walks (for dogs), playtime, administering medications (if needed and with clear instructions), and maintaining any special routines. I’ll always respect your home, keep doors and windows secure, and make sure your pet is safe and comfortable before I leave. I’m also happy to schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand so your pet can get to know me and we can go over their routine in detail. I’ll send regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: My veterinary assistant experience with small and large animals sets me apart as I keep a close eye on your animal’s health and well-being. I am not easily spooked, but I want your pet to receive the best care I can give. I am not a trainer, but I am comfortable dealing with some pets with behavioral issues. I want to create the safest and most comfortable environment for your pet, your sanity and myself! I currently work four days a week and have a three day weekend. I am looking to pet sit for people who are going on a short trip or need routine weekend care. I can be flexible with week nights, but it will need to be established well in advance. I am looking to house sit in the owners residence. My cats would not be happy to have any new comers to our family. I am very punctual with breakfast and dinner time, and I am typically one to spend time wherever the pet would like to whether that be indoors or outdoors!

“Tiffany is wonderful. Very proactive, lots of communication, so attentive with our girls, and she is really fun to talk to. A great added bonus! We will definitely have her with us again.”

“Lauren is a very sweet young lady. She was very good with our nine week old German Shepherd puppy Nala. I would definitely recommend her and I will be booking her again as long as she wants to deal with my crazy puppy. 🤣”

About: I am a trained and certified k9 trainer with experience in basic and advanced obedience, behavior modification, odor tracking and an affinity for stray dogs. My partner is a chef who shares that affinity and we have a 4 yo little human whose almost as obsessed. Retired vet in school but my schedule is flexible so I can around most things. My partner is also available for pick up and drop offs if im not. I have multiple sized indoor and outdoor kennels and playpens for your pup, along with dog runs, my property is fenced in on most sides. All dogs are put on a run unless specifically trained by me. Also offer way too many pics for your Instagram. I do training on the property as well so there are areas best suited for that.

About: I am an animal lover through and through! I’ve been taking care of many different types of dogs and cats since as long as I can remember. I am comfortable around all dogs and cats, and I am more than willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal in particular. When I come to care for, play with, and walk your pet, I will dedicate my time to truly loving them. I have experience staying at owners houses to take exceptional full-time care of their pets, and I also have experience keeping pets in my home! I have practiced basic animal training such as teaching dogs and cats to sit, stay, and shake. I truly adore animals and I will enjoy every minute of caring for your fur-babies! I am currently an Elementary Education student at the University of Connecticut, but I have tons of free time to take care of pets, whether that be for drop-ins or for more personal care in my home! Currently I am available full-time and I can accept last minute bookings. While dropping in to care for your pets, I will of course be incredibly respectful of your space, going only in the rooms I am allowed and touching only the items needed to care for your animals :) To care for animals in my own apartment, I have made sure that potentially hazardous items (small items, food, plants, etc.) are all put away/placed at a height that dogs and cats cannot reach. While I do not have a fenced yard, there are several parks around my apartment where I can consistently take your dog out on long walks. In my home, animals are also allowed on beds and couches! Please let me know if your pet requires any specific accommodations or changes to the environment :)

“Kaleigh was absolutely amazing with watching my dog and three cats! She provided great updates every day, which helped me with our week away from them all. All of them were well fed and watered and the boxes were cleaned in a timely manner. The house was exactly as we left it and it was a great relief to have someone so reliable watch them while we were away.”

Kristina D.

“Shannon was incredible! Klaus was just as spoiled by her as when we’re home and she communicated throughout her time with him. Between pictures and messages, we always felt good knowing that he was in good hands. Additionally, Shannon left our house better than she found it, cleaning up any sign of her stay there - we will 100% book with her again in the future!”

“Michaela did a great job watching our Yorkie for over a week, with regular updates and no issues. She was always very responsive and professional. We would definitely use Michaela again and recommend her to others!”

About: I’ve worked with various types of pets, providing reliable care for dogs and cats. I have extensive experience pet-sitting for friends and neighbors, many of whom have repeatedly entrusted me with their beloved companions. My commitment to attentive and compassionate care ensures that pets feel comfortable and well-cared for in their owners’ absence. Pet care is an essential part of my routine. I have everything a pet owner needs—except for a pet of my own. Whenever I have someone else’s pet in my care, I always prioritize their schedule over my own. I care for every pet equally and with diligence. I treat each one as my own and provide everything I can to ensure their happiness.

“Jaclyn is amazing! She went above and beyond to help out with a last minute request after losing our regular sitter. She took amazing care of Rory, and was really respectful of our home — everything was so clean I almost didn’t believe she stayed here! Lol She was easy to communicate with, responsive, and flexible, which made everything feel really easy and stress-free. Most importantly, our dog was happy and well cared for. We’ve found our new sitter!”

Katie V.

“I recently hired Kerly to watch my dog, and the experience was outstanding. From the moment I reached out, Kerly was professional and responsive, taking the time to understand my dog's needs and preferences. During the stay, Kerly provided regular updates on how my dog was doing, which really put my mind at ease. It was evident that Kerly has a genuine love for animals and created a comfortable environment for my pet. When I returned home, my dog was relaxed and happy, which reassured me that he had been well cared for. I highly recommend Kerly for anyone in need of a reliable and attentive dog sitter. Thank you, Kerly, for taking such great care of Cue!”

About: I've had pets my whole life and have experience dog sitting. I'm dependable, caring, and treat every pet like family while following their routine and giving them plenty of love and attention. I only work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I also have a reliable car, making it easy for me to arrive on time, accommodate last-minute bookings, and ensure your pets get the attention and care they deserve. I think it is important to offer positive reinforcement and constant love (for pets who want it), or even just hanging out and making the pet know that they get their needs met.

I currently work full time at Travelers Insurance with a hybrid schedule that allows me to work remotely two days a week. I am in the office Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, but I am home the majority of weekends and available to stay full time while caring for your home and pets. As the owner of an 8-year-old yellow lab, I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate caring for your pets while you’re away. I have experience watching friends’ and family members’ pets and homes, and I always strive to make pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I’m also very active and would love to take your pets on walks, play with them, and give them as much attention and companionship as they need! Your pets’ safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home, and I will always treat them with the same care and respect I would my own. I strive to maintain your pets’ normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and any specific instructions you provide. As a pet owner myself, I know every animal has different needs and personalities, so I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m very attentive, communicative, and happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind.
