I highly recommend Sarah's pet sitting. We had a last minute cancellation with another private sitter before a trip that left us in a tough spot. I passed by Sarah's sign a few days before and was so glad I did! I was able to easily request services from Sarah's online and was called with about 30 min to set up a meet and greet and get us all situated. Their sitters are excellent communicators and regularly send reports/updates and pictures that you can access through their app. The initial meeting was perfect. We chatted and the sitter got to know our pets, our routine, where everything is, etc. Very organized. The intake form is pretty long, but seriously it's very helpful to give as much info. Plus they can administer meds if needed. This is a great option for those whose pets either can't or don't do well at a kennel/day care. That was certainly our situation and I'm SO GLAD we found them!! We have a larger dog and two cats for reference. read more

I am so amazed at what a wonderful job they did with my fur babies. Shout out to Sitter Skyler she was so kind and kept us updated daily on our pet's progress. read more

We have used Sarah's Petsitting for many years now. We have always been very happy with the care that they give our pets. They always give a full report at each visit including many photos. We always enjoy seeing the photos while away. We can see how happy they are. It is also nice how they check on our house too and bring in packages. I would like to give them a special shout out for the care that they gave our pets while we were away during a recent large snowstorm. We were concerned that they wouldn't be able to make it to our house because of the severity of the storm. they kept in touch and made sure that there was enough food and water for our fur babies in case they wee unable to make it back at the scheduled time. We didn't want them to endanger themselves and knew that they would be fine if they couldn't make it back. All went well and they reported back to us the next morning when the roads were cleared and they could make it back. They dug out a spot on the deck for our dog to get out and go the the bathroom and all was well. This is a great company and they truly love the pets that they are taiga care of. read more

They are the best. They take the time to get to know your pets. They then report back and send pictures after every visit and include updates of what they did during their visit (empty litter box, filled their treat ball etc.). You schedule each visit within a 2 hour window, so your pets get to eat at the same time they are used to eating. Great easy to use app to update pet profiles, request what you want done for each visit, and pay. I have tried other sitters (friends, neighbors etc) and never quite knew what was going on, or came hours late. I will never again use anyone else. If you want peace of mind while you are away, these are the folks? read more

We were so happy and thankful for the services of Sarah's. A special thanks to Katherine and Dakota who took excellent care of our cat Lenny. We had just adopted Lenny when we had to go out of town for a week (the timing was awful), and being a former stray he needed a couple different medications, lots of attention, and a few healing processes to observe. They did it all! They updated us with a picture and visit summary every day. That always made our day. Very reasonably priced for how incredibly professional and thorough the care was. Thank you, Sarah's! ‍ read more

We jus got back from vacation. While we were away we appreciated Sarah's Pet Sitting daily contact about how cat was doing. And bringing in packages and newspaper. Piece of mind during our vacation read more

We have worked with Sarah's Pet Sitting for six years now and have been so impressed with the ease of reservation, the communication during our vacation (text from the staff (with pics) plus confirmation from SPS) so we are confident that the visit took place as scheduled. As our cats have gotten older, they have both needed medication and additional attention. SPS has been wonderful, caring, and attentive. They have been willing to assist with other tasks (mail, watering plants, etc). They even swept the floor! We are so grateful to know we are leaving our beloved pets in such good hands. read more

The service is fantastic, I never have to worry about Morty or Sylvia when we go out of town anymore. Whether it's Jessica, or Rebecca, or whomever comes to keep them company, clean their water, or box, I am assured they are well taken care of. The added bonus of the mail and newspaper taken in is just icing on the cake. The price is reasonable, I don't mind the cost knowing everyone is well taken care of. Thank you, everyone, my mind is at ease. read more

Sarah's Pet Sitting has been sitting for my bunnies for 5-10 years. They have been without fail: reliable, caring, available, flexible, trustworthy. They have a user-friendly website for ordering visits and updating care instructions and are quick to respond to requests. Each visit they immediately send a notification they've come with a progress note from the sitter and photo of the pets. The sitters will also bring in mail and put out trash cans. They have eliminated the worry about my bunnies when I travel. I recommend them 100%. read more

I can't say enough about Sarah's Per Sitting! The dog sitters are very professional and caring and the response time is super quick and efficient. Several times I've requested a dog sitter at the very last minute and they have never turned me down. read more

We are very pleased with Sarah's Pet Sitting. Our dog loves the love and attention each walker brings and we always come home to a happy dog and know he has been cared for . The service has wonderful employees who go the extra mile. It's wonderful. read more

Unbelievably great! We were very worried leaving our two cats behind during our vacation- they can be very shy and i didn't know how they would react to a new person coming into the house... my fears were unfounded. From the very beginning Sarah's pet sitting was wonderful. It began with an on-site meeting with one of the pet sitters- we went over the house with her, our pets schedule, and she had some time to meet our cats. In addition there is a very robust website where you can give more detailed instructions in regards to feeding, watering, playing with the pats, and even things like taking out the homes trash and making sure lights are kept on at night. Everyday we were delighted to find that we would receive email updates with pictures, telling us how our pets were doing and what activities were done with them.I was even able to confirm via our security cameras that the pet sitters were indeed at home for the scheduled amount of time (30 minutes). All the pet sitters used were kind, caring, very pleasant with our pets, and did a great job. They even cleaned up after one of our cats after they had a hairball. For the amount of service we received , and for the peace of mind we had during the entire week we were away I more than think that Sarah's pet sitting is a wonderful value. read more

This review is solely based on our experience using Sarah's Pet Sitting for dog training. We adopted an 11 month old puppy a few months ago and within a week of having him home we knew we were in BIG TROUBLE!! He was definitely a handful and my wife and I had no idea how to handle him. He seemed to have what we thought were aggressive tendencies, which was a huge issue with a 2 year old and a newborn at home. We reached out to Sarah's Pet Sitting for help. Honestly, there aren't words to describe how thankful we are to have found them! Laura is the dog trainer and has literally changed our puppy and our lives! We had our first session in our home and within the hour there was an IMMEDIATE change! We were so impressed with how Laura interacted with the dog and how she not only showed us techniques, but explained the reasoning behind her methods! Unfortunately after the first session our puppy seemed to start acting up in a very "aggressive" manor. There was a point my wife and I contacted Laura and discussed our options for turning our little guy in due to his "aggressive" behaviors. Laura was so kind and helpful, and didn't judge us for wanting to surrender him. We ultimately decided we couldn't give up on him, so Laura came out the very next night to help assess the behavior and see what she thought. To our relief, she explained that basically he wasn't being aggressive at all, he was just frustrated and throwing puppy tantrums! She showed us exactly how to deal with the behavior and after only a week he is SO much better!! We are now able to control him and properly deal with these tantrums! We understand that this is going to be a process, and take time and effort.... but bottom line... we have no idea what we would have done without Laura's help and expertise! She has literally changed the whole dynamic of the house after only 3 visits, and the dog continues to do better and better! We are so thankful for what she has done and we have no hesitation on recommending her services to anyone. Her pricing is ridiculously fair compared to other companies out there (trust me, get some quotes and see for yourself) and the results are better than we ever would have expected! Don't hesitate! Thank you Laura! Looking forward to continuing our training outside the home and getting our little guy socialized! read more

This was my first time using a pet sitter, so was a little nervous. I have an older dog and 3 cats, and was gone for a week. Sarah's pet sitters were awesome! From the new customer visit until we returned, they were very communicative. While away, we received twice daily updates and pictures of our pets. Everything was done per to our instructions. We will definitely use Sarah's any time we need a pet sitter! read more

I have been using Sarah's Pet Sitting for almost 4 years and I am 100% happy with their service, and most importantly, so are my dogs! Excellent, friendly and accommodating dog walkers come in daily while I'm at work and walk my dogs, play with them and give them treats. Also, when I am away on a vacation, one of their regular walkers stays with them overnight and gives them breakfast and a walk in the morning. I just came home from being away visiting my human family for basically the whole month of August, and my dogs are happy and well cared for, having been able to stay in their own home the whole time. SPS has become a valued part of my dogs' family! Also, they take pictures of the dogs on their walk every day and send a little text letting you know all is well. Highly recommended! Gracie, Boom and their mom (Also, I live in Southington, not WH as it says on my Yelp profile. I guess I haven't written a Yelp review in four years since I moved. SPS serves Cheshire, Southington, etc.) read more

Sarahs is amazing.They are reliable and our dogs absolutely love them.They send you updates every time they visit,will continue to use them to care for our pets. read more

I just used Sarah's Pet Sitting to take care of my cat during a 2 week vacation and they were great! The whole set-up process was easy, and the communication was great. They send reminders, updates, and let you know every time a visit is completed. My sitter, Ali, was also fantastic! She texted after every visit to give an update and made me feel at ease about leaving my cat for so long. I will definitely continue using this service and will be recommending it to fellow pet owners! read more

Sarah's pet sitting did an amazing job watching our dog and were very professional. We really appreciated the notes taken, which gave us an idea on how he acted, how much food he was eating and using the bathroom. Thank you all for keeping our little man safe, happy and fed because he loves to eat. Patrick and Amanda read more

If I am going to pay someone to come into my house and care for my dog, not to mention let them have a key to my house, I have to trust them completely. I don't take that lightly. I recently switched from another local pet sitting company that I became dissatisfied with. Sarah's is a breath of fresh air! I could not be happier with the care Kara, our sitter, has been giving our dog. He can be a challenge at times, and she is succeeding with him day after day. Every day, she sends us a detailed text with a photo of him. This makes us very happy. Kara is fantastic, and I think she is a reflection of a fantastic company where owners are involved, care about animals, and care about their clients. Thank you, Sarah's! You rock! read more

Excellent service as always. One of my cats was hidden for a couple days. I was contacted and asked for possible hiding places and they found her. Everything was well taken care of upon arrival back home. Will always recommend SPS! read more

Great pet sitting service...I would recommend with no reservations. I have used this service on multiple occasions. They are extremely reliable, follow directions, and my pets loved them! read more

I had been having socialization trouble with my pitbull, Ruby, and had contacted about 10 dog trainers. Once I spoke to Laura on the phone, I knew she was the person I wanted to help us. Within 5 minutes of walking in the door it was like she knew everything about the dog and we started training. It's like night and day from before trying to now! She's fantastic! So happy we found her!!! read more

We usually have family take care of our little girl when we go away but when it came time for the whole family to go on vacation together we didn't know what to do. We didn't want to board her and we didn't want just anyone to come in and out of our home. We had heard a lot of good things about Sarah's Pet Sitting and even know the owners personally so we decided to give it a try. Setting up our account was super easy and VERY detailed. Then our sitter came to meet us before we left and he was so comforting. He gave us his cell number and brought a notebook that he left on our kitchen counter to fill in on every visit with Franky... and Franky loved him immediately. Every day we were away I got a text whenever a visit was complete along with some details about the visit and a picture of ms Franky...and an email as well. It was amazing. When we returned we had our happy puppy, a pile of mail on the counter, and a notebook full of details about her visits, which was really fun to read through. I can't say enough about how personal and yet professional our experience was. This totally allowed us to be away from our first baby with no worry. We'll definitely use Sarah's Pet Sitting again! read more

I've been using Sarah's Pet Sitting for several years now and LOVE them. All the sitters are professional, loving, and reliable. Highly recommend them! read more

Sarah's Pet Sitting is terrific. Alison and Paul took great care of my dog and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend this service. read more

We have two cats, one is a diabetic with kidney issues requiring both two insulin injections per day and one subcutaneous fluid treatment, as well as a specific diet. We had major work celebration to attend but it required an overnight stay. We needed very specific medical pet care, preferably by a vet tech who happens to pet sit. Sarah's Pet Sitting Service came to our rescue. We worked with them by sending them instructions about care, because cats hate change on principle so we wanted SPSS to have an idea of what the cats expect. The pet sitters also sent us email reports with photos AND updated a notebook/diary of each visit which we left by the cat food. Of course, our cats offered them challenges--no fighting, just evasionary tactics--and the skilled pet sitters improvised, plus let us know in their reports what they did to get the job done. We will definitely use them again. And it's nice to know we can travel again. read more

Sarah's Pet Sitting was absolutely perfect. We were stressed and scattered, changed plans last minute, and were generally nightmare customers. Throughout the entire process, they were friendly and professional. On top of it all, Randi left an amazing note about the time she spent with Foxy. These guys were the best! read more

We absolutely adore Sarah's Pet Sitting! Our multitude of cats, dogs, Guinea pigs, fish and chickens are all exceptionally well cared for while we're away; what a great thing to have such peace of mind while you can't be home to care for them. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone and everyone! read more

Fabulous! From the complimentary home visit to, the pet visits. Sarah's pet sitting took great care of our two cats. They provide daily updates and the service really is incredible! Paul took wonderful care of our pets and was great to work with. The system took a bit of work to set up, but once you are all registered the process to schedule visits and get daily updates is smooth sailing. I would highly recommend SPS. read more

Sarah's pet sitting did an excellent job caring for my three cats. I really appreciated the updates via text. Everyone was extremely professional and I felt my cats were in good hands. I woulld definitely use Sarah's pet sitting again! read more

We never worry when we are away because we know our pets are loved. In fact , I think the dogs are still hoping to have them show up after we are home. They do a great job at keeping us informed of how the visits went via text and even include some cute pics of the pups. We can't say enough wonderful things about SPS. read more

I was looking for someone in the Cromwell area who could administer fluids to my cat. Not only did she respond right away with an answer for me she told me someone who services the area I live in. Thank you so much for your help. I spent a couple of weeks trying to get a response from others I had contacted read more

I left my little dog alone this past weekend for the first time and was a nervous wreck. SPS was just awesome! I knew when they were arriving and when they left by the text messages and updates I received throughout the weekend. Laura brought in my mail and left my house better than it was before I left! The upfront process was almost all online and it was very easy to schedule visits and I knew exactly when the charge would hit my credit card. Great service. Laura was awesome and I will use SPS again. read more

I have used this service several times a year for the last two years and couldn't be more pleased. The pet-sitters are professional and detail-oriented, and scheduling services is easily done through their website. In addition to mine being a four-cat household, one of them needs meds twice a day. When I am away from home for work or vacation it gives me great peace of mind knowing that SPS sitters are taking care of my beloved animals and giving my cat his meds on time. They are accountable: they leave written notes detailing what they did during each visit and send a text message as well, sometimes including photos, which really warm my heart when I'm away. I have recommended SPS to several friends and would recommend them to anyone. read more

If I could give them a zero rating I would. They watched my dogs on two separate occasions. The first time was while I was away for a few nights, the sitter used a door she wasn't supposed to and left it unlocked. I know because a family member came to also let my dogs out and said the door was wide open. My family Member secured the door and the sitter did it AGAIN the next day. So against my better judgment I hired them again. Thinking it was just a mis understanding they used a door we don't usually use. I gave them a second chance. I left a note on the physical door and called and told them NOT to use the door and also noted it on my account through their website. Again the same sitter used the door. She calls and tells me she had to use the door bc my keys don't work. My keys work to ALL the doors in the house so that was false. She was just incompetent. After all this I notice items of high value missing from my home. I contact them immediately bc they were the last people in my home wo me being present. I call and email them telling them I need to be contacted bc There's things missing from my home. Not only do they not contact me back but they mail me my keys. I contacted the police bc now I can only assume they are not dealing with the situation bc they are some how at fault for the missing items. I'd recommend NOT using them. What kind of reputable co would just ignore a customer who is making such serious claims. You'd think they'd want to assure you that they would never steal from a customers home. Instead they're just dodging me which seems guilty in itself. STAY AWAY read more

Sarah's Pet Sitting is a wonderful business - Everyone is so professional, friendly, knowledgeable and caring. Not only do Alex and Laura take wonderful care of our dog, but they always go the extra mile for us, whether it is bringing in our mail or packages, or staying a few extra minutes to play with our puppy a little longer. They are great about giving us updates on how our little guy is doing throughout the day and he is always happy and comfortable when we get home! I would highly recommend this service to anyone in the area - Not only for those in need of pet sitting, but also for those who just want their pet to have a little extra company when they are away from the home. read more

We loved this service and highly recommend it. Extremely professional and caring. Wouldn't use anyone else.

We just used Sarah's Pet Sitting for the third time for our week long vacation. They took care of our cat in our home twice each day. Once in the morning and once in the evening. I feel so relaxed about my pet using Sarah's when I am gone on vacation. They text you during each visit and you can tell they truly care about your pet! This is an awesome company and I would highly recommend them. Christine (one of the sitters) just loves my cat and it makes me feel so good when I see she is on the schedule to take care of her. A very caring and loving person. Thank you! read more

I understand many are giving Sarah pet sitting good reviews. Maybe they are all of her friends or clients with easy pets. My experience with them has not been good. Missed visits, visit times significantly changed with no advance notice. They are not able to handle difficult cases i.e. Elderly dogs or pets needing medication. On my last experience the only request was morning breakfast. Since they could not handle the giving of the medications I had a relative move into the house for my trip. Breakfast visits were only request. The first morning bowls were left out on floor. Guess which dog got all the meals? My chunky monkey. Another visit my relative stayed late to give breakfast. On the last visit breakfast was skipped entirely. Which meant my very elderly dog went 24 hours without food. My keys were returned to me without a written apology. I will not be using this "pet sitting service " again and I would warn any pet owners of elderly or special needs pets to do same read more
