Dog Sitting in Wolcott

About: I’ve taken care of pets, dogs of all sizes, cats. I’ve given medicine orally, and insulin shots. I have sat for pets for several years for family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. I love spending time with all animals between long walks, hiking, and just hanging out on the couch. I work full time but I telework several times per week. Weekends completely available. When I’m at the office my partner is home 24/7 so the pets will never be alone! I have a lead going from the back deck to the shed (across my whole yard) I have two very friendly dogs and cats. I can crate if needed & there is space available if your dog needs to decompress alone without other animals. I slowly introduce animals to make sure everyone coexists well. All dogs are fed separately to avoid any food aggression. We have an over sized, fully gated and covered back deck that the dogs can also hangout on with us safely.

“Vera stepped in as a last-minute replacement, and I’m so grateful she did! She followed all of my detailed instructions and was very intuitive with my persnickety cat. She also sent very charming and kind updates. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely love spending time with them, especially dogs and cats. I have a golden retriever and two cats of my own, so I know how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your pets while you’re away! I’m very reliable, patient, attentive and I honestly just enjoy being around them. I love being outside, going on walks, and making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I also have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets plenty of attention and consistency throughout the day. I’m comfortable with dogs of most sizes and energy levels, as well as cats, kittens, and puppies! Whether your pet is super energetic or more shy and relaxed, I’m happy to work with their routine and make sure they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets! Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in, or just some attention during the day, I’m happy to help! I don’t care for pets in my own home, but I’m very respectful and reliable when it comes to caring for pets in their own space. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, make sure everything is secure before I leave, and give plenty of attention and care during my visit! I want your pets to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

“Allison is just the best! She’s reliable, always keeps us updated with pictures and messages, and always gives our dog the full time. Our dog loves her, and it gives us so much peace of mind knowing she's in good hands. Thank you Allison!!”

“Elizabeth did a fantastic job in her visits with my cat Star. She did everything I asked of her including a couple of last minute instructions I had while away. She also sent messages with pictures which gave me plenty of piece of mind knowing my little buddy was okay. I highly recommend to anyone looking for someone to watch their pet. Superb job!”

“We are so so happy to have found Lani!!! She is great with our hyper/crazy large dog. She is always available the days we need her and Callie truly loves when she visits. We can’t be more happy, thanks Lani!!!!!”

About: I’ve always been comfortable with dogs of all types. I grew up with dogs and have spent my whole life around animals, so caring for them feels natural to me. I’m calm, confident, and make sure to adjust to each dog’s individual needs so they feel safe, understood, and well cared for. I work full‑time during the day, but I’m available in the early mornings and evenings to take care of your pet. That gives me plenty of time for feeding, walks, playtime, or whatever they need before and after work. Mondays are my completely open day, so I’m available all day then for longer visits or extra care. My goal is to ensure your pet feels genuinely cared for. I pay close attention to their routine and what they need, and I make sure they stay comfortable, happy, and relaxed the whole time they’re with me.

“Overall, I would rate Lindsay as a good pet-sitter. Prior to our vacation, she was very timely in responding to my messages and she also modified the Rover.com charges to a very reasonable rate for her visits with our 2 cats. It was while we were gone that I felt she fell short. My first issue was with her inconsistency in providing updates on the visits - there was a photo and thorough recap on the 1st day, but on subsequent days there was less detail and on one day there was no update at all. My second issue was with the timing of her visits. I had made it very clear that it was important to check in during the early afternoon, but at least twice she didn't visit until the evening. My third issue was with attention to detail - I had left very specific notes about the cats' food/water/litter and it didn't seem that she had followed them. Lastly, my greatest concern was with the well-being of our female cat and her being bullied by the male cat in our absence. We came back to find that she had a facial injury and had urinated in a chair out of fear. All-in-all our pets were reasonably cared for, but I was definitely disappointed. Lindsay is a very nice girl and I'm sure she had the best intentions. I think the issues may have been due to lack of experience or perhaps I wasn't clear enough on stressing the importance of certain things. (To those reading this review, please note that I have very high expectations for the care of my pets and I think Lindsay is absolutely capable of meeting the needs of a less demanding client.)”

“Michele was great with the pets, sent great photos of everyone and they were well cared for. I will definitely be scheduling with her again”

Colleen D.

“Steph was soo amazing and such a sweetheart with my dogs. My Bella is weary of people but warmed up to Steph extremely fast. Her updates and photos of our dogs during her visits made it all the more heartwarming and comforting knowing they’re in good hands. Definitely highly recommend and will be coming back when needed. Thank you again for being so wonderful! 🤍💕”

“Both of my cats liked Jessica. And my cats hide most of the time. Appreciate checking food , water and taking care of the litter box.”

About: With 12 years of experience raising and training my own dog, along with caring for dogs in need, including one who was at risk of being placed in a kennel.

I’m a stay-at-home mom providing a safe, cozy, and attentive home environment for your dog or cat. Your fur babe will get plenty of love, supervision, and routine care throughout the day. I welcome friendly, well-behaved dogs and cats and always keep owners updated for peace of mind 🐾 I have two friendly dogs and a friendly cat. Large yard and all pets have free range of the house!

About: I had a childhood cat named Sophie since I was born. We grew up together and she was definitely the reason I knew I wanted to work with animals because I enjoyed helping them so much. I have experience in an extremely busy environment both at an ER and at a dog daycare. I loved working at the Vet and can’t wait to get back to it! I’m on a break from school and want to keep working with animals but give myself a small break from schoolwork and animals are the best mental health tool. I can’t wait to get to know your baby and create a safe, fun and loving environment for them. I am currently on a break from college until I go do my practicum experience at Penn vet hospital is philly. I’m not working during the days right now, I spend them with my cat and would enjoy having a fun baby to take a walk with or just play with! I have a long haired tuxedo cat named juliet. When i’m home from school we have a lot of fun during the day since my family works. She’s so sweet and never fails to make me laugh or to catch random zoomies mid nap. I feed her in the mornings and clean her litter box during the day.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of experience caring for everything from my dogs to reptiles and fish. I’m currently a proud mom to a very spoiled bearded dragon and a few beloved fish, and I’ve spent the last two years as a dog lead volunteer at my local animal rescue. Working hands‑on with dogs of all personalities, from shy and nervous to goofy and energetic, has taught me patience, empathy, and how to help animals feel safe and understood. I take my time getting to know each pet so they feel comfortable with me, and I’m always happy to do any research needed to make sure your furry family member gets the best care possible. While I work full‑time, I offer early mornings, weeknights, and weekend availability to fit your schedule. I have weekday availability around both Plymouth and Milford areas. I can’t wait to meet your furbabies and treat them like my own. Pet care is already part of my everyday life. I care for my own pets daily and volunteer as a dog lead at my local rescue each week, so working animal time into my schedule feels natural. Even with a full‑time job, I have early morning, weeknight, and weekend availability to give your pets the attention they need, so while you are away you can be assured that they are taken care of. I care for pets in their home by keeping their routine consistent and following your instructions closely, so the feel safe and secure at home. I take time to help your pet feel comfortable, give them plenty of attention, and keep your home tidy and respected. I’ll send updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Katie was amazing! She was communicative and very kind. It was our first time using a sitter through Rover and we were not disappointed. Katie was friendly and accommodated all our needs. For the first time, I could say that we vacationed stress and worry-free. Our babies were in great hands. We have a cat and dogs and she catered to their needs very well especially since my Lion (dog) needs extra love when we are away during 4th of July weekend! I highly recommend her and will be looking forward to having her back. 💗”

“We had such a great experience with Mckenzie! From the very beginning, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly loves what she does. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our puppy was in good hands. We also loved the photo updates. We came home to a relaxed, happy puppy, and that says everything. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
