Cat Sitters in Botsford, CT

Justine is amazing with our dogs. They are both show dogs (Keeshonden) so it’s important for us to know they are being carefully looked after. Justine treats our furry babies like they are hers. Our boys always enjoy their time with Justine. She’s the best!!!

Trustworthy, reliable, flexible, and love dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages and temperaments! My dogs love the Comforts of Home sitters, they are always so excited to see them. I am constantly changing my schedule; adding and subtracting days during the week...they are superb at keeping track of your needs and your dogs' needs. They are also great communicators...if anything is wrong (dog seems sick, dog limps during a walk, etc.) they always let me know. It's so great for us dog owners who can't be at home all the time to know that we have someone we can count on to keep our dogs happy and healthy in our absence.

We have been boarding our dog with Justine with 2 years. She is very trustworthy and reliable. She takes good care of our little guy and he always comes home happy.

Justine is the best animal person I have ever met. Her care and understanding of all animals and their needs is amazing. Her attention to every detail of care is like no other care giver I have ever met. I don’t usually trust anyone with my animals but after meeting Justine I knew I would have complete peace of mind leaving her in charge. She also took care of my home, plants and made sure everything was perfect for my return. She called with updates and pictures so I never felt like I was separated from them. Justine also walks my dogs several days a week. She is punctual, loving and very responsible. I recommend her to everyone looking for the best care possible. I highly recommend Justine and Conforts of Home! You can too!!!

I highly recommend Justine and her business, Comforts of Home Petsitting, to people in search of a quality, professional and reliable pet sitting service. I have been a loyal patron for several years. I trust Justine with our 4 pets as well as our home, as I have given her a key. Justine is an honest, knowledgeable and hardworking person who understands animals. When we return from being away we can tell our pets are happy and have been well cared for. I am very blessed to know Justine and I hope you will give her the opportunity to take care of your pets too!

Good friends recommended Justine’s services and we could not have been happier! She welcomes each pet into her home with open arms and loves each of them as if they were her own. Great large fenced yard for plenty of outdoor time. Our dog is happy to see us on our return but loves to go back for more fun and love. Comforts of Home is just that for your pet!

Justine is the best ! Always going above and beyond. She takes such good care of my dogs. It's such a relief knowing that you have someone that's so reliable and never to have to worry. Thank you for all you do !

Justine has been helping us with dog walking & boarding services for about 2.5 years. She has been 100% reliable with mid-day dog walks; Justine was even coming twice a day during the puppy stage. She has a beautiful home with a large fenced in yard where she boards the dogs. My dog (Abby) has stayed more nights than I can count and she always comes home happy! Abby gets plenty of exercise and time with other dogs while she’s there; I never have to worry about her. Besides that, Justine is flexible with scheduling and has always been able to meet our needs or even last minute requests. She is a true animal lover at heart and cares for the dogs like her own. Justine has even coached us through some challenging behaviors our dog exhibited. I am so grateful to have a knowledgeable, loving, and dependable resource like Justine!

Justine has been our dogwalker for the past 6 years. She goes above and beyond and always keeps us informed. Our dogs love her and she is extremely reliable and is always so flexible to our schedule. She is top notch!!!!

Justine is absolutely amazing with Sammie, our black lab! We couldn’t be happier and feel so secure when leaving Sam with Justine!!! Wouldn’t take Sam anywhere else!

I am so glad that I found Destiny! One of my dogs is very anxious and she handles her so well. She sends me pictures and updates about the dogs every day. She also is super responsive and flexible with drop off and pick up times for me which I appreciate so much. I highly recommend her to anyone in the area, and have already recommended her to my friends!

Destiny has been wonderful and our Trixie loves going to visit! She's got a great set up in the back yard and will share posts or pics of your puppers throughout his or her stay. We've used her for boarding services a few times in the past year and she's always been accommodating. Destiny is wonderful to work with and I would recommend her to anyone in the area!

I was so nervous to put my puppy in daycare, and I wasn't sure how I could trust someone else with her. But once we met Destiny, I knew she would take such good care of my baby! Destiny is so professional, reliable, trustworthy, extremely responsive and communicative, and most importantly she loves my puppy so much. Mia lights up when she sees Destiny, and it makes me so happy! I work a very demanding schedule, so I don't get to socialize my girl, and I can't really get her outside to play, so the days that Mia is at Destiny's Daycare are perfect! She has so much fun playing with all her friends, gets all her energy out, and comes home happy and exhausted! I 1,000% recommend Destiny's Dog Daycare/Boarding! Wouldn't trust anyone else. 🙂

Destiny is a great dog sitter! We have been using her for a few months and she has been so accommodating, kind, and patient with our Cooper! If you are looking for a place to send your dog to I 100% recommend using Destiny!

Destiny is so phenomenal with our two dogs! They love going to see her and they both freak out with excitement whenever we pull on her street. She’s also always available even on short notice, and very communicative on how the pups are doing, even sending us pictures regularly. We recently moved across the state but still always use destiny to watch our pups because nobody else compares. Would highly recommend her!

Over Thanksgiving I had to board my 4 year old German shepherd for the very first time. Destiny did a meet and greet with us and explained everything in detail and made me feel comfortable trusting her with my fur baby. During my dogs stay she sent me pictures and updates everyday, she made the whole process easy and comfortable. My dog is staying again in 2 weeks! Thanks Destiny!

Destiny is by far our best choice when we needed a dog daycare. She is very friendly, trustworthy, and dependable. My dog always receives the care and attention he needed. Highly recommended.Definitely we use her service again.

I am so grateful I found Destiny. Madison LOVES going there, whether for the day or overnight. Destiny provides plenty of fun and exercise. When I pick Maddie up, she sleeps the entire way home and most of the following day! As they say, “a tired dog is a happy dog” I love my dog and we spend most of our time together. It's very comforting to know she is in good hands and having fun when we are apart. I wouldn't bring her anywhere else.

We had a terrific experience today with Destiny Dog Daycare. Last minute need to be in Connecticut from Long Island and day boarding for our Mini Golden Doodle. Destiny was professional, sent us a video of Piper, friendly and knowledgeable with pets. Our dog Piper had a great day with Destiny. We highly recommend her and her Dog Daycare!!!👍👍👍👍👍

I had to fly last minute and I was so happy to quickly get my dog set up for boarding With Destiny's Dog Daycare/Boarding. He (my dog)absolutely loved it, and I loved being able to see pictures of him while I traveled. And Destiny was so kind and helpful.

We have been blessed to have Emily and her sitters in our lives for the past 3 years. We first sought out pet sitting when our two dogs (who have since passed away) were getting older and needed someone to visit each day. Emily helped us give them the best quality of life possible as they reached the end of their days. Since then we’ve adopted 2 young dogs and have continued with daily visits. We also now have 2 cats and have been grateful for support with overnights so all of the furbabies can stay home where they’re most comfortable! We could go on and on about all the reasons we’d recommend Emily and her agency above all the rest 🐾❤️

Mellie & E took care of our furkids for a week, with such amazing care and dedication, including above-and-beyond duties such as saving a turkey mom from our fenced area!! They were incredibly patient with me, and showed loving tenderness with our elderly pets. They gave perfect updates, were always on time, help this very nervous dogmom relax with hilarious and adorable pictures of each pet being loved. They cleaned dishes, litter boxes, even vacuumed!!! I do not have enough words to thank them. So grateful!! It really felt like having very very close friends take care of our pets, and home. 100 STARS!! THANK YOU!!

This review is long overdue. I cannot recommend Emily and her staff highly enough. Last Thanksgiving we traveled to spend the holiday with family 6 hours away. I received a call from Emily that one of my dogs (Ellie) didn't seem well. Emily continued to monitor Ellie, and on Thanksgiving day she was unable to stand up. One of Emily's employees met her at my house to help load her in the car so she could take Ellie to the emergency vet in town. Ellie was diagnosed with Lyme disease. Emily arranged for Ellie to be picked up and brought home with her medication. This was all on Thanksgiving day. Emily felt that Ellie needed pain medication and made yet another trip to the vet to pick them up. She cared for Ellie as if she was her own pet. When I took Ellie a week later for a follow up visit at her regular vet they gave her an injection of antibiotics. Ellie had an allergic reaction to the shot about an hour later when the vet's office was closed. We rushed her to the emergency vet who diagnosed her with extreme renal failure. We had to make the agonizing decision to put her to sleep. We were absolutely devastated. This sweet girl was a rescue and was the sweetest, happiest, most grateful, loving little soul. Although she came to us in very bad health, she seemed to understand all that we did to help her which only made us love her more. The day after we put her to sleep Emily sent us flowers. I was so moved by how much she truly cared about our family. If you are looking for someone to care for your fur baby while you are away, you could not find a more trustworthy, responsible or caring person.

I’ve been using emily for about a year now - and I cannot say enough good things about her and how she runs her business. I absolutely LOVE heather who walks my dog almost every day during the week - emily is always so responsive, kind, flexible and they have made me and my dog much happier with their services. Emily is always willing to help me out last minute with sitting if something comes up and all around just runs an amazing business. Would recommend to ANYONE who lives in the areas they service 10000%!

I have been working with Emily and her staff for over a year and they are fantastic. Always Safe at Home walks my pup every day while I’m at work. They are reliable and trustworthy. I have also used them for extended pet sitting while out of town. I trust them 100% in my home and with my dog. The whole staff loves animals and I really feel like my pets are cared for and loved while I’m away. I have no hesitation in recommending them wholeheartedly!!

Emily and her crew are the best. My pets are a very special part of my family and I would not leave them with just anybody. I never worry when I’m away because I know they are in good hands. I have used Always Safe at Home for many years and the staff has cared for several of my dogs and kitties, loving each and every one of them. Emily and the crew treat my pets as if they were there own. I especially love reading the little notes from each visit when I return.

Emily and her people are fantastic! We struggled for years to find people to pet sit our very nervous dog. Well, our search and worries are over - she loves Emily and everyone she sends! They take the time to get to know your dogs and are always professional and timely.

Emily and her team at Always Safe at Home have been our go to service for our Sammy for the past seven years. We've have used them for the daytime visits, adventure walks and overnight stays and we've never had a missed appointment or any issues. I would highly recommend Emily and her team to anyone looking for a caring, loving, competent team to watch over their furry family members.

If I could give TEN stars I would! I had an emergency medical crisis and Emily saved the day as I was stressing about having my English Bulldog and German Shepherd Dog overnight, alone, no walk etc if I had to stay overnight in the Hospital. The dogs LOVED her. And vice versa. It was a kissing fest ! And, when I was ok metro leave the Emergency Room and call Uber for a pickup, Emily INSISTED upon picking me up herself. And she had to come from Newtown ! This is an awesome pet sitter and an even more AWESOME person !

I have used Always Safe at Home for over a year now. At first it was just occasionally and then more full-time. Emily and her staff have always been flexible and accommodating. I trust them with my dog and know that she is in good hands when I am not there.

We've boarded our dog with On the Move Pet Services many times. Passionate about her dogs and those she cares for. Goes out of her way to accommodate customers. Trusted dog walking, boarding services in our home or her facility.

We are very happy with our dog walker Riley and Judy, the business owner of Snaggle Foot. They are flexible, accommodating and affordable! We always know our dog is well cared for when Riley walks him and he always sends a thorough update with photos of our pup looking very happy. We wish we found them sooner!

We had chosen to go with Snagglefoot for the weekend and it was great service! We had Anthony and by far he gave the best service. He gave us pictures and periodic texts throughout the day and night. It was very helpful and made us feel comfortable leaving our baby overnight. Thanks Anthony and Snagglefoot! We will definitely use you guys again!

Awesome service - very easy to get in touch with Judy and schedule catsitting. I’ve used Snagglefoot multiple times and it’s always been great (and reasonably priced!). Judy came over to meet me before the first time to make sure she knew exactly what my cat needed. Riley my sitter was amazing and texted me regular pictures and updates to let me know how things were going.

This place is UNBELIEVABLE. I was so excited to work with Judy and her team after reading a five star review on yelp. I needed a pet taxi to take my dog from daycare to my home so I called Judy and asked for a consultation; she came over the very next day (A Saturday) to meet my dog and discuss services for the following week. My dog is an 18 month old, 90lb labrador retriever so she explained that Anthony would be best to pick up my dog because he is "comfortable with big dogs". Three days later, on Tuesday, Anthony was supposed to pick up my dog from daycare at 5pm. I get a call at 3:30pm from the daycare (that I trust implicitly) with a worried associate on the other end. She explained to me the following scenario: A young, small man - probably around 18 and 150 pounds, arrived at the daycare to pick up my dog. The associate also noticed that he drove a two-door vehicle. He asked for my dog and was surprised when a 90 pound dog came to the door, ready to leave. Anthony immediately showed worry, couldn't control my dog, and then expressed concern about ruining the upholstery of the car - during this time, he also mentioned that he wasn't even supposed to pick up this dog, he was only supposed to go to the house and let him out but it was changed last minute AND he was not informed of the dog's size (he thought the dog was only going to be 20 pounds). The associate asked Anthony to step out and call his boss to find another person to pick up the dog - the daycare associate knew not to let my dog in the car with Anthony. After calling Judy, Anthony came back in and informed the associate that Judy had no idea my dog was so large because she had never met him. He also said that he would be leaving and she would be coming to pick up my dog. At this point in the story, I ended the conversation with the associate and immediately called Judy. She informed me that Anthony could not take my dog home because my dog ruined the upholstery in his car - Judy was just leaving to go pick up my dog. At this point, I informed her that she was not to pick up my dog from daycare on that day or any other day. Anthony was an hour and a half early. I asked for my dog to be picked up at 5pm because I wasn't going to be home until 9pm. My dog is still a puppy and I don't want him to be in his crate longer than 4 hours. 6.5 / 7 hours would have been too long for my dog. My dog was never in Anthony's car so not only did Judy try to lie to me and tell me that it was my dog's fault, she also lied to her employee about meeting my dog, and did not prepare her employee for his job. I am appalled but her unprofessional behavior and lack of tact. As I said, UNBELIEVABLE.

Probably the kindest most trustworthy dog adorers ever! My 2 long haired doxies have so much fun with Jamie & he is obviously completely smitten with them! He sends heartfelt texts with photos every time he walks my duo & I always feel relieved to know he’s there for them, when I can’t be. 100% recommend!

Greg did a great job caring for our cat Sasha, turtles, lizard, and fish. He sent pictures every visit - we felt very comfortable with him in our home and easily trusted him to care for our animals. Will definitely book him again. Thanks Greg!

We can’t say enough good things about Greg and Pappy Paws. It is very hard to find a reliable, responsible and loving dog walker you can trust — and Greg is all of those. He took time to get to know our dog and us during an initial consultation. Tess can be shy and she quickly warmed to Greg. She is super happy and relaxed on the days he visits. He sends pictures and updates with each visit, and takes Tess for full, long walks. Communication is also prompt (and Greg is patient with my many questions). Scheduling and billing is all online, which makes it very easy. Overall, Greg is wonderful — I highly recommend!

Greg has been great! We were looking for someone to check in on our puppy while at work. He keeps in touch throughout his visit, letting us know when he has arrived and how our pup is doing. Greg also sends us pictures during his visit. He has been extremely reliable and works with our schedule. I would highly recommend Greg at Pappy Paws to anyone!

I needed a dog walked very last minute because my usual walker wasn’t able to help out for the weekend. I contacted Pappy Paws Pet Care and Greg came the next day to meet my dog and see what services I needed for the upcoming weekend. They were able to walk my dog Cooper when I needed while I was away and sent me pictures and updates off him. I would highly recommend if you are looking for good care for your dog!

We recently used Pappy Paws Pet Care when we went away and were extremely happy with the care and attention they provided to our furry child. Greg was incredibly prompt in responding to my initial inquiry and we quickly scheduled a time for him to come and meet our pup. He was very thorough in his assessment of our dog as we walked thru a multi-page questionnaire. I was impressed by the preparation and care that went into the questions. We were very reassured in going away that someone as caring and professional as Greg was looking after our loved one. During our trips, we got frequent texts with pictures which was very nice. We will definitely use Pappy Paws in the future and would recommend them without hesitation.

Greg of Pappy Paws is a reliable and professional business man. He responds to texts and phone calls promptly and provides caring services for his animal clients. Scheduling appointments is easy via the website. All around a quality business and service. Highly recommend

Greg walked our 1 year old Chocolate lab for the first time this weekend. He was punctual and thorough and is always quick to respond to any messages. He sent pictures and messages throughout the walk which were comforting. His website is also super practical and convenient to use for booking as well. We were very satisfied with his service and are excited for him to come again!

I have been searching for a dog walker since my hours can be long and unpredictable. At the initial meeting Greg stated that he had other clients with similar concerns. It is great to know if I get stuck late hours at the hospital he is willing to walk and feed my pup. He responded quickly and Mia loved meeting him. He sent photo updates during the walk and Mia had a blast! I am very pleased and know she is in good hands being taken care of like she were his own dog. I will definitely continue to use Pappy Paws.

I had a hard time finding pet sitters for my vacation (my pups are not pleased with strangers) but Greg and Randyn were patient, encouraging and totally professional. They sent pictures and videos daily, so I wasn't worried about how the pups were doing. At the end of my vacation, after a stressful day of travel, I came home to two happy, healthy pups, and a wonderfully neat house- thank you Pappy Paws!

Greg did cat sitting for our two anti-social cats while we were away for a week. He checked in every day with pictures and updates, and we are very grateful for his consistent and conscientious help.

I have been using whiskers since 2019 and they never disappoint. Barb and Liz are angels, really. They work so hard about making sure we always have the same sitter (they’ve even adjusted schedules around more than once to ensure this happens). Our dogs are always so happy and perfect when we return. I trust these ladies immensely. It makes leaving these sweet babies just a little bit easier knowing they are in such good Hands.

Liz and her team are amazing and extremely professional. We have used Whiskers 2x now and have been very happy. We can go away and not have to worry about our dog or our home. We will 100% continue to use them for all future trips.

Whiskers is a truly caring and excellent business. The entire team demonstrate a level of professionalism I have not seen before. Whiskers always goes the extra step for all of their clients. I have never had a negative issue or a bad experience! They definitely deserve four paws up!

My dog is epileptic and requires extra care. Finding a professional, loving dog sitter who would stay at my house when I was away was very important. Liz and Barb are terrific. They send photos daily. I can relax and enjoy my holidays knowing Charlie is well cared for. I highly recommend Whiskers Pet Sitting.

Such a wonderful experience with Liz and Whiskers Pet Sitting! Very reasonable prices, extremely reliable, responsible and they communicate well. We wouldn’t trust anyone else and highly recommend their services.

We have been Whisker clients for many years and are very pleased with the care, reliability, availability, professionalism of this service. Barb and Liz are wonderful! They are like family to us. When we are away, we can relax knowing that our doggie is in their kind, loving, responsible care.

I never write reviews but I felt the need after my experience with Whiskers. My dog has a stomach issue and requires meds 3 times a day. Before his stomach issues we always used a local dog sitter who would take dogs into his own home. Since then we have only used sitters who can sit at our house. We had a 15 day trip scheduled for September and found out 4 months before the trip that our regular sitter would be unavailable. We started researching new sitters immediately . As I am sure you know, it's not easy finding someone to trust to stay with your pet and home. Our vet recommended Whiskers and 2 other sitters. We met with the Whiskers owner (Liz) twice. Once alone and once to introduce use to the sitter she was assigning to our dog/home. For some reason she said it would be an issue to have the same sitter for all 15 days (we did not want multiple sitters - tried it once and it was a mess). Eventually we were introduced to someone who could commit to all 15 days. During this meeting we asked for references for the actual sitter. Liz seemed upset by this. She wanted to provide a reference to her company only. I wanted a phone number to speak to someone who had used the sitter she was assigning to our dog. Liz said she would get back to me. We also asked for the sitter's phone number so we would tell him when there was a package coming and to ask for an occasional photo of our dog. Liz said no - all communication would have to go through her. I reminded her that we would be in a time zone 7 hours ahead and that we needed direct communication. Again, Liz would think about it. 3 days after the meeting (4 weeks before we were leaving from our trip) we received an email from Liz saying we were not the right fit. We emailed back and called. She would not speak to us. No more contact. How could you do this to anyone? It took us months to find and agree on Whiskers. What a horrible experience. I can't remember the last time I was so upset by something a vendor did to me. The only thing I can think of is we were fired because we asked for a reference and a mobile number. I would never ever recommend a company that treats people this way. ZERO STARS!

Whiskers Pet Sitters have been the most responsive and dependable pet sitters for our 4 furry children. They are a big part of the family. We had to move 2 years ago from MA to CT and one my biggest concerns was how are we going to find a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter. We tried a few but none of them we could count on long term. I then tried the owners at Whiskers and they have been nothing but fabulous these last 2 years. My wife and I travel for work often and take extended vacations and my pets are well cared for! I get pictures twice a day from them and they also do other things if needed, like getting my mail, watering my Christmas tree, basically anything I have asked of them, they have done. If your pets are as important to you as ours are to us then you should give Whiskers a try.

Marie and I have used Whiskers for the past 5-6 years. Liz and Barbara take care of our pets as if they were the parents for Mickey, Scooter, Diego and Jeter. Liz and Barbara and their assistants are reliable, thoughtful and trustworthy. A couple of times, they even took one of older pets to the vets for examination and treatment. They kept us fully informed and were very helpful in allaying our concerns about our pets. Also, they always send us "pet" pictures each day via text, so we get a quick "visit" with our loved ones. You could not find a better prepared and more dedicated pet sitters.

I’ve been lucky to have Whiskers in my life almost since its start- many many years ago. Liz and Barb run the most professional business which is so necessary when they or their bonded staff are coming to ones home and keeping a watchful eye on our dog. There has never been an unsatisfactory incident of any kind-and in fact- just the opposite as we know how loved our dog is when they take care of him. I’d recommend them unequivocally and I’ll hopefully have them in our life forever!!!
