Top Rated Pet Care Near You

Yes – we specialize in dog walking and pet sitting, but we also specialize in happy clients (both human and dogs/cats)! We go out of our way to make sure that all dogs and cats have both a  stimulating and satisfying visit. And of course, that leaves you, the human, with peace of mind knowing that your furbaby will be given the loving attention they deserve while you’re away.

But don’t take our word for it. We’d prefer you hear it from our amazing clients throughout the greater New Haven area.

And here’s the typical reaction we get from our four-legged friends when we come visit them!

Other Reviews From Our Clients


“My dogs are certainly lucky dogs to have Amy and You Lucky Dog as part of their lives. I have spent the past two and a half years interviewing and researching a replacement dog walker after losing our previous walker. It’s hard to find that special person who you feel safe entrusting with both the four-legged members of your family as well as with your home.

I knew within minutes of meeting Amy that we had finally found that perfect someone. Amy arrived at our “Meet and Greet” with a pet first aid kit that would put a hospital ER to shame and an easy going and friendly personality that immediately put my dogs at ease. I sat and politely listened to Amy tell me all about the business and her experience but I knew, instinctively, that we had finally found our new walker. Amy started within days of our initial meeting and by the second day she even had my nervous nellie dachshund snuggling up next to her.

Amy visits my house twice a day Monday through Friday. She has always shown up as scheduled and if winter weather has caused a delay or cancellation she has provided notice well in advance. She provides incredibly detailed visit reports which include multiple pictures of the day’s activities and sometimes even videos. I cannot recommend Amy and You Lucky Dog highly enough. She provides me with peace of mind, knowing that my furry little bundles of joy are being lovingly cared for while I’m away from home.”

“I contacted You Lucky Dog because my wife and son went to visit family in another state and needed someone to walk my dog. I searched the Internet and read reviews and decided to call You Lucky Dog and schedule a visit. Amy and her walkers came to my house and spent time getting to know my two very large dogs. Amy asked numerous questions and really got an understanding of my dogs and their personalities.

When it came to walking my dogs, Amy’s walkers were on time, professional, and playful with my dogs. The best thing about them is they took photos and wrote a summary of their visit and emailed me right away. It was nice because I could forward the email to my wife so she could also see what was going on at home. The service was great and the price was excellent, especially for the service provided. I would highly recommend Amy and her walkers and plan on using them in the future.

“Highly recommend Amy! She is very patient with our scared dog. She comes up with great ideas to entertain him. She sends daily updates and photos. Highly dependable and gives lots of good suggestions. You know she is trustworthy and will keep your dog safe! We are the Lucky Dogs to have found her!!”

“You Lucky Dog is a gift from God! Amy, Heather, and Ann work beautifully with my rambunctious baby Pancake! I am so appreciative of the love and care demonstrated to Pancake and I! The text updates and photos I receive warms my heart during the long days away from my lovey. I highly recommend You Lucky Dog to any pet owner! I feel Pancake and I are the lucky ones!”

“We could not be happier with You Lucky Dog’s services. The daily notes and photos were definitely appreciated. I was always amazed how much Amy was able to do with him each day and do not know how she squeezed everything into 30 minutes. We are thankful that Amy took great care in watching our monster and doing a little extra each day.”

-Rick and Kirsten D.


“Amy Hazelton is an absolute God-send for the anxious dog owner! My English bulldog Bella has many physical and behavioral issues ranging from dog aggression to severe food allergies. Not only did Amy handle her with professionalism and love, she managed to do it all with a smile. Her never-ending energy and spirit show in her incredible work: we practically had to drag Bella away from Amy when we went to pick her up, she did not want to leave! Amy is one of the few people I would trust with my dog. I highly recommend her for anyone looking to have a sitter or dog walker. She is truly a dog whisperer, and a great person, too!”

-Rachel F.


“Recently my wife and I rescued a puppy named (Camden) who is a six month old Boxer Border Collie mix. We were very apprehensive about leaving him home alone while we worked, and he is just too young to be crated alone all day. I made some inquiries and luckily found Amy. When we first met Amy, we were impressed by her enthusiasm and genuine love and understanding of dogs. She was very patient and took the time to answer all of our questions.

As she talked with us, we noticed how she interacted with Camden, and it was quite evident that she had the skills and qualities we were looking for. Camden immediately sensed her positive energy and enthusiasm and responded very positively to her. Amy has shown great consistency and patience in working with him, and he’s definitely responded to working with her. He now is able to walk on leash without tugging or stalling and gets so excited when he sees her.

Amy has been very flexible in scheduling time to walk Camden and has given him the special attention that a puppy needs. I know that when they are together he is in excellent and competent hands.”
