Meet The Petsitta

Christy Bartley, The Petsitta with her German Shepherd Zoey!

Caring for pets has always been an important part of my life. I count myself fortunate to have grown up amongst a gang of fuzzy friends and I’ve proudly continued that tradition in my own home.

As a long time pet owner, I’ve accumulated a wealth of knowledge. Each new companion has offered a fresh perspective, a sprinkling of frustration and – of course - immense joy.

To accompany this experience, I have spent the last 7+ years actively pursuing a more formal education; focusing on animal training and advanced care and I'm eager to share & apply all that I’ve learned!

I cover clients from the Farmington Valley to Manchester and all points in between! These Connecticut towns are in our current service area. If I can't get there, I may be able to recommend someone in your region.

Most of us are apprehensive when it comes to leaving our treasured pets in the hands of someone else. I’ve experienced this anxiety first hand with my own pets. If you are considering my service but still skeptical, I encourage you to contact me. I am available to discuss your pet care concerns at no cost with no obligation. We’ll work together to create a plan that addresses any questions or worries you might have.

I look forward to hearing from you and meeting all your furry family members!
