Home pet sitting in Southbury, CT
I have 2 difficult dogs that I take care of at home, so I would love to sit for your pet! I am 19 years old and home from college until the beginning of January, so I have plenty of time to get in some pet sitting jobs. If your pet needs walking, playing with, cleaning up after, or transportation; you name it, I'll do it.
