Brooke
Providing Pet Sitting in the Winsted, Connecticut
Experienced & personable Petsitter available
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Brooke and Kirk took excellent care of our elderly cat, and they left our house in pristine condition. Brooke sent daily texts, and it was clear that our cat felt at ease with them. We welcome Brooke and Kirk back anytime!
dianne
Providing Pet Sitting in the Winsted, Connecticut
Homeowners and ex hands-on landlords with extensive animal care experience.
Dianne and Tim are exactly the kind of sitters who make TH a trusted and reliable community that we can turn to time and again. They were highly communicative, friendly, capable. They took care of our 7 month old Nora for a few days and were so flexible with the needs and quirks of a young dog in training. Our dog fell in love with them quickly and the daily photos proved it. They were conscientious from start to finish with Nora and left our home in immaculate condition. We came home after a long day of travel to a clean home and happy dog which is everything. We are so very grateful to Dianne and Tim!

Alice was super helpful, taking care of Xabat and our home with short notice. She is thoughtful and tidy and we are grateful!
Fiona
Providing Pet Sitting in the Winsted, Connecticut
Give your pets a fun staycation!
Fiona was a really great sitter. She was super self sufficient, she sent many photos of Zoe and funny commentary. It was clear that she loved spending time with Zoe. She left my place clean and she was easy to coordinate with. I’d have her back any time.
James
Providing Pet Sitting in the Winsted, Connecticut
Mature, responsible pet lover loves to travel
This was the third year in a row James watched our pets. For the third year in a row, we came home to happy and cared for pets and a house that was left in great shape. We trust James; and it is a wonderful feeling. We have old pets. Our little dog is over 15 years old and has some special needs. James handles her like a loving pro. James is a go to person.

This is the second time Karen has sat for us and hopefully she will be sitting for us again this August.
Elizabeth
Providing Pet Sitting in the Winsted, Connecticut
Frequent Petsitter Who Loves Travel Seeking Accommodation and Pets to Watch
Elizabeth was an excellent sitter. She is clearly an animal lover and was in tune with our cats, especially bonding with Daisy who loves company and cuddles and attention, but also winning over slightly more picky Saffy. Liz kept us informed throughout the sit with photos and news and we came home to two contented and calm cats. The house was neat and tidy, the sheets and towels in the wash, and everything clean. We are glad she liked our area and Bushy Park and made use of our bicycle to explore. We have no hesitation in recommenting Liz and hope to see her again in the future.
Leslie
Providing Pet Sitting in the Winsted, Connecticut
Kind, impeccable house/pet/property sitter for your home and pets.
Leslie did a great job taking care of our four cats, our house was neat and clean, and we received lots of pictures from her daily - we can't thank her enough! Aside from an alarm on an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in my office (she has NO blame for this one - it failed while we were gone!), she was self-sufficient and took care of all out plants and paid great attention to the cats!
Naomi
Providing Pet Sitting in the Winsted, Connecticut
Vegan - Digital Nomad - Animal Lover
I was delighted when Naomi came back again for another sit with Mr B. So kind, so calm - such a wonderful sitter in every way and kept me up to date at all times. A lovely person, so glad we met and Naomi is always welcome.
Sunil
Providing Pet Sitting in the Winsted, Connecticut
Responsible & non-flakey. Neat and tidy. Experienced homeowner.
Sunil is an excellent house-sitter. Great communication before and during the sit, with many fun photos. Sunil took great care of our cats, houseplants and home. It is people like Sunil that makes zeewoi a success. We hope he will be available to return to our home in the future. Many thanks to Sunil.
Reviews from Dog Owners
Mia
Anita was a wonderful dog sitter for Balto! They were super tentative, made sure to ask any and all questions before we went away, and they sent the best updates about Balto while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing my dog was in great hands, and I could not recommend Anita enough! Quality care, and our apartment was spotless when we returned home.
Patti
Cleo is a very lucky puppy dog to have been cared for by Matt & Lisa! We’ve had quite a few sitters over the last 2 years with TH, and I have no reservations saying that they were the best! First, communication was fabulous from the start. They put me at ease before they ever got here. Throughout the sit, there were regular updates and pictures. They were so very attentive to Cleo, and even ventured out with her on trail walks (Cleo’s favorite thing in the world). They handled her medications with no problem. It was obvious that my nervous pup was at ease and loved them, as she ended up sleeping with them! I’d have Matt & Lisa again in a heartbeat, and would recommend to anybody!
Leslie
I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.
Megan
Stephanie was fantastic! Very organized and left our house sparkling clean. She also sent daily pictures/messages which we loved receiving. She took great care of our dog and our house. One of the best sitters we’ve had!
Andrew
Brian is awesome - he is simply the best pet sitter and house sitter that we have EVER had and we've had a bunch. He is experienced, thoughtful, respectful, loving, appreciative, helpful, enthusiastic...the list just goes on. Started with our initial call - it was our first sit with zeewoi and he immediately instilled confidence in us in how he talked about his experience and how he saw his role. In the pre-planning, he had great questions for us and helped us to get organized. He was thorough through the instructions, came in a day early to make sure he understood everything about our house and our dog and then followed through on everything. He even drove us to the airport and picked us up on the return. Along the way we were gone, he sent us pictures and kept us updated - always making us feel good about being away and knowing Jorge and the house were in great hands. We had workers coming to fix a fence while gone and some other activity at the house - he was helpful, available, and willing to do whatever was needed to be done. He was self-sufficient and when it came time to leave, he had everything organized and cleaned at the house - he left it in better condition than he received it. We would love to have Brian sit whenever we are away (and in fact will invite him and hope he says yes!) - any one would be lucky to have Brian as their house and pet sitter.
Cynthia
If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to pick Vanessa, I highly recommend her. She cared for our fur baby for two weeks and received the care and attention she needed. We came back to a very happy pup and clean home which is awesome after coming back from a long trip. I received texts and pictures of our dog while we were gone which gave us peace of mind. You could tell right from the start that she genuinely loves animals and will care for them as if they are hers. I will continue to use her as my pet sitter if she’s available. All I can say is she is a wonderful person!!
Cassandra
Jim sat for my extremely shy rescue pup and new kitten for two weeks -- my pup struggles with new people, and is very fearful of men in particular. And yet, Jim was more successful with her than any sitter I've ever had: I can't recommend him highly enough. He has wonderful patience, a calm energy, and is a great communicator. He consistently updated me with photos and videos of my sweet girls enjoying the world with him, taking my dog on hikes and adventures to her favorite streams. He went above and beyond both for her (in meeting her needs and taking the time to get to know her personality), and also in caring for my home. I returned to such a cozy environment, a repaired wood stove, an organized wood pile and an at-peace dog and cat. Choosing Jim as a sitter is ensuring that your pets and home are getting the best of care, and his actions exemplify his kindness, generosity and thought taken in consideration of others. I hope to have him return many times in the future; the experience was a privilege both for myself and my pets.
Anne
The two-leggeds and four-legged members of this household give Tess a 5-star rating! We think she's one of the best sitters you will find - highly communicative, friendly, competent, reliable, and great with pets. Tess was also flexible about start and end dates to accomodate possible winter weather complications. For this sit, Tess was able to bring along her mom, Cathy. Tess introduced me to Cathy during one of our Skype conversations prior to the sit. It was a bonus to have her here with Tess. Their travel to Marquette was complicated by weather. A fierce winter storm swept across Michigan just before the sit. It took Tess and Cathy two days to drive here but they arrived, as promised, in time for us to fly out early the next morning. We even had time for a lovely dinner together and to introduce them to the dogs and house. We left the next day and never had a moment's worry while Tess and Cathy were caring for our pets and home. Tess sent us regular updates and photos. The dogs immediately accepted them as great new additions to their pack of friends - even our cranky, old chihuahua, Nike! We returned to happy pets and a spotlessly clean home. We plan to invite Tess (and Cathy if available) to return for future sits. Thank you, Tess and Cathy!
Kristin
Melissa and Chris are amazing. We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity. They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them. Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could. I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them. They also took very good care of our house and plants.
Shannon
I could go on forever because Veronica was beyond incredible! We feel so fortunate that she was able to sit for us. Our fur babies were so spoiled with love and attention. Veronica followed their regular schedule, gave our dog her joint supplement, and helped clean her paws with medicated wipes from our vet. Our cat is very shy and sometimes doesn’t even come out for sitters and he loved Veronica! She brushed him and gave him so much love. They were both so happy when we came home. Veronica went above and beyond for us! She even made us masks, got us some disinfectant spray we haven’t been able to find and to top it off she made us bolognese sauce with sweet chicken sausage! She even left us a new box of pasta to make when we got home! We couldn’t believe we got to come home to an incredibly clean house, dinner and such happy pets! Veronica sent pictures and updates daily which made our time away even more relaxing. She took cleaning and sanitizing very seriously which we appreciated so much! We highly recommend her! She treated us, our home and pets just like family. We would love to have her sit for us again and are so grateful for everything she did for us! Also - dinner was delicious!!

Pet Grooming by Amie
Recent Reviews:
Amie and her staff are the best pet groomers around! I have a huge rescue dog that is timid, but can be overwhelming to the faint of heart. Amie and her staff handle him with confidence and the grooming services that they provide are beyond expectation! The prices are fair and very reasonable for an A+ job. Scheduling is always very easy and convenient. The location is great with parking right by the front door. Thank you Amie! You’re the best!
Pet Grooming by Amie would get 10 stars! She is wonderful with my 106 lb.German Shepherd who does not like his toenails clipped. He is so comfortable with her and he is done within minutes! No fussing and he gets right up on the table on his own.
Amie and her staff are fantastic with my Auggie!! He gets nervous easily but they are so good and gentle with him. Nothing but good things to say!!!
My 6 month old standard poodle is the most anxious dog I’ve ever owned. We take him to Amie every few weeks and she’s able to give him a full body cut (we keep his hair short). He won’t even let me brush him without a fight, so this is a true testament to how good Amie is. He looks great every time!
Amie took on my mated long haired husky and did an amazing job with him! Came back looking like a different dog. Not a complaint definitely recommend as a pet groomer!!!
My dogs have been going to Amie for years now. She is a wonderful groomer that is just a text away (very convenient!) My dogs are very comfortable going to her. They always look and smell fabulous when she is done!! Highly recommend Pet Grooming by Amie for all your pet grooming needs! ❤️
Honestly wish I could give no stars! Don’t send your animals here! She cut my cats whiskers and she had cuts all over her skin! My cats are very easy going and do well getting groomed. I will do it myself for now on. She could have really hurt them. I also helped a neighbor catch a small dog that got out of her shop. Very sad she treats her animals like this…totally unacceptable and inhumane.
10/10 service. They handled my dogs anxiety very well and was able to give him the best haircut he has been able to get. They did his haircut, bath, nail trim and teeth brushing for a good price. Well worth the money. Will be coming back again the next time he needs a haircut. I would recommend this groomer to anyone looking to support small businesses and wants good quality.
Brought in my long haired cat yesterday and they did a great job! Quick and a great price, he left a handsome and happy boy 🐱 …
I have a 80 pound very long haired mixed breed who has a lot of anxiety with being groomed. He hates to be crates and needs to be clipped before he’s washed since he hates the dryer. Amy was amazing my dog came out looking fantastic and was so happy. Amy was so accommodating to my dogs needs I will definitely go back every single time. She was outstanding
Logically Canine: Dog Training & Dog Boarding
Recent Reviews:
Kelsey is a miracle worker. Finding her and her training allowed us to keep our cattle dog Lailla! Kelsey takes the time to hear about the day-to-day life of your pet and then focuses on any pain-points you may be experiencing. She also ensures that all of your questions are answered to help the transition to being back home is successful. The work is now on us to continue enforcing the behaviors that Lailla learned. I can tell you that Lailla is a pleasure to have around and the correction techniques Kelsey taught us work very well. I would HIGHLY recommend Kelsey for any of your training needs. We used the doggy bootcamp 3 week program and it was beyond worth it. Thank you Kelsey!
Kelsey is amazing! She has been caring for our dogs for many years, we would never take them anywhere else. She is knowledgeable, kind, and loving with our dogs (Dexter & Dash). One dog is very skittish; however, he loves Kelsey so much, never runs/backs away and just wants to be as close as possible to her. We highly recommend Kelsey for your training and/ or boarding needs!!
I have had the pleasure of taking several different group classes with Kelsey. She is attentive to both her human and canine students, and I learn right along with my dogs. She is also extremely knowledgeable and is continuously expanding her knowledge and education. There is no one I would trust more with my dogs, and I know that both my dogs and myself are better from the skills we have learned. Looking forward to taking more classes in the future!
Kelsey is a wonderful trainer. Truly the dog whisperer! She is patient with any & all dogs and has a wealth of knowledge to adjust training styles to the needs of the owners and dogs. We’ve used her training with both our dogs (Building Confidence & Basic Obedience) and have already enrolled in another class (Ready, Set, Recall). We highly recommend her for any training needs. She offers wide variety of classes with varying times to accommodate schedules.
Kelsey is one of a kind. We use Kelsey for boarding and choose her every time we go away. Our dog Maple, is truly excited every single time we pull into Kelsey's driveway, and sad whenever we leave. Kelsey came recommended to us through the rescue we adopted Maple from as she previously fostered Maple. It was important to us to find a boarding environment that was not high stress for our dog, and Kelsey's home is just that! We drive 30 minutes to Kelsey's each way because she is that good. She treats your dog like family, constantly sends pictures, and communicates all the time with any questions or updates. She spoils and loves Maple just as much as we do. Kelsey and Cody truly feel like family and we are so thankful that we have them to trust with our girl!
Kelsey is absolutely amazing! We just finished puppy classes with our puppy Howie and look forward to continuing at Logically Canine. Kelsey is very knowledgeable, patient, and responsive to our specific questions and needs. I highly recommend Kelsey and the programs at Logically Canine!
We are so happy we were recommended Kelsey and Logically Canine by a friend. We take our dog there for daycare and also for overnight boarding and Kelsey is the best. She sends updates every other day when we are away and pictures of our dog so we know she’s doing great! She is very clear in her communication about hours and reaches out to see when we will be dropping and picking up our dog. Highly recommend Logically Canine!!
Kelsey at Logically Canine is top notch! I searched for daycare for my dog as though I were searching for daycare for my child and wanted the best. What struck me during my early communications was her responsiveness, her attention to detail in answering my questions and her organization. Once my dog started going to Logically Canine for both daycare and boarding it quickly became his home away from home. When I pull into the driveway he immediately starts wagging his tail and is ready to go! Kelsey treats the pups as though they were her own, is hands on, incorporates lots of fun activities, and provides daily feedback on their day. If you are looking for daycare, boarding, or training Logically Canine is the place to go. You and your pup will love it! Carolyn and Tim
Kelsey is so great at what she does. She’s calm and you can tell she truly loves dogs and knows how to train them in a calm and effective way. Tiger leaves class very tired and a better dog.
Kelsey did incredible work with us and our anxious Berner! She has such a well rounded and calming approach to her training techniques. Really loved how thoughtfully she explained her reasoning for certain exercises, helping us as owners to better understand our dog and his behaviors, and also holding us accountable for the homework items laid out between sessions. Highly recommend Kelsey for one on one training. Thank you (: Zion loves you!!!

Barkley Drive
Recent Reviews:
Chris was amazing! Showed up on time, was very kind and compassionate. You can tell he loves animals and loves what he does. Our dog came out looking and smelling amazing! Will be using him again for sure!
I had my pup groomed for the first time ever using Barkley. They were amazing! In fact, so amazing....my dog didn't want them to leave! Professional, amazing quality, affordable, and friendly. Will be using them everytime. Thank you
The whole experience was great, start to finish. Chris replied almost immediately to my initial message, he was on time, and he wore a mask and practiced social distance. The most impressive thing was how he handled my nervous and snappy chihuahua mix, who emerged from the experience his new best friend. He's truly a dog whisperer.
If I could give him 10 stars I would !!! Very kind, compassionate, Excellent with my dog Highly recommended!!

"Gina took care of my 5 Mini Daschunds when I went away. I've never left them in someone's care like that, but I felt completely at ease with her caring for them. I would highly recommend Gina if you ever need a pet sitter. I will definitely be using her again!" ~ Julie S.
The Dog Nanny
Recent Reviews:
I absolutely LOVE the dog nanny and my dog does too. She gets so excited every time she’s gone and comes back home nice and tuckered out. I love how they have little pools for the dogs to play in when it’s super hot out so they can still play outside while staying cool, and the inside of the facility is always nice and fresh on the summers and cozy warm in the winters. All the staff here is also so passionate and caring for all the dogs and it really shows in how well they are looked after. Best day care and boarding spot around!!
Our family loves The Dog Nanny. The Dog Nanny is my dogs favorite place in the world, plus the staff is also great with communication. Couldn't recommend them enough for canine boarding or daycare.
My dog rusty been coming here for a long time and he absolutely loves it. He’s the happiest dog in the word whenever I pick him up. I’ve talk to a girl named Lila and she was the nicest and most helpful person I’ve met THANK YOU DOG NANNY
I have been using the dog nanny for 14 years with two dogs. When Surf died last year at 13, I received the most beautiful, kind and thoughtful note, that I will always treasure. The note reflected what I already knew - Surf was treated like royalty and they knew her personality and preferences so well. Disco still attends the Dog Nanny and I know she is equally well cared for. The staff are simply superb!
I can’t say enough good things about the staff at the Dog Nanny. They truly care about the dogs and their safety and well-being. My dog is 6 and has been going to daycare and boarded several times since he was under a year old. They pay close attention to the needs of my dog and he absolutely LOVES being there and comes home tired and happy every time!
I would not recommend this daycare. They seem untrained in handling dogs with energy. Instead of allowing them to play and burn off steam, they call you to come pick them up. They called to give me an update and told me they loved my dog he was doing great, and he could stay for the entire day. Not even 15 minutes later they called back saying they needed me to come pick him up immediately because he was overstimulated and he was not allowed back! This defeats the purpose of bringing your dog to daycare for exercise and socialization. This bad experience kept me from trying another daycare for over a year. Since then, my dog has been to two different daycare's where they adore him and have nothing but positive things to say about him. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere for daycare services.
The dog nanny is fantastic! My dog absolutely loves it there and always comes home happy and exhausted. The staff is incredibly caring and attentive. Highly recommend!
My dog has been going to the Dog Nanny for around a year and a half now and he loves it! They really are a top-notch organization and take very good care of all the doggos. I'm always happy to see my little guy run into the play yard straight away every morning to play with all his little buddies .
We signed up for the dog walking services offered by the Dog Nanny back in January after hearing great things on Facebook and from word of mouth of friends. We cannot be happier with how amazing all of the walkers are. My 2 year old rescue can be very timid of other people at times. Cortny scheduled a meet & greet with us prior to starting walking to ensure Peyton (and I) would feel comfortable! Cortny walked Peyton for the first several times to get her into the routine of having someone come into our house and take her, then we gradually transitioned into allowing other walkers in. I did not even think of doing it gradually, but Cortny wanted to ensure Peyton was comfortable. I work more than full-time in my office and sometimes feel like a bad Dog Mom not be able to be around more often during the work week. Cortny, Jodi, and Lindsey have helped relieve that stress completely. They are more than flexible with scheduling and have saved me several times when I had a last minute meeting arise to go take Peyton out. After several weeks of walking and loving the Dog Nanny Staff, we decided to do daycare 2 days a week and walks 3. I truly could not imagine life without these people! Everyone who we have interacted with at the Dog Nanny has been nothing short of amazing. I highly recommend the Dog Nanny to anyone considering dog walking and/or daycare for their pup. (First photo from walking, second photo from daycare)
Amazing people and we feel 100% confident of the care our dog receives either with daycare or boarding.
