About My Business

Vision: Our vision is for pet parents to work, travel and play worry-free and provide them with expert-backed positive reinforcement based training to modify behavior and deepen the relationship between dog and human.

Mission: Our mission is to provide an unparalleled pet care experience through our focus on safety, education and positive training methods along with an extraordinary client experience to provide pet parents with the compassionate support and peace of mind they deserve.

Core Values: RCO Pet Care’s core values are safety, integrity, compassion and excellence. These values are at the core of our careful treatment of your home and pets, the heart of our customer experience philosophy and the standards we hold ourselves to each and every day.

Our Story:

I knew I had to reassess my dreams of attending veterinary school upon the passing of my mother when I was in college. Moving out of state for 4 years was no longer an option as I knew my home was here in CT with my younger siblings. I took a job that appealed to my education but I lacked passion in the office setting.

As an Animal Science graduate, a shelter volunteer, an equestrian, a former zoo employee and the family’s resident “Dog Mom,” family and friends would come to me with nails that needed to be trimmed, harness and training recommendations and requests for pet sitting. Working with animals and helping their owners keep them safe, happy and healthy via education and experience was my calling.

I officially opened RCO Pet Care (Rocco and Company Pet Care… named after own beloved pack) in December of 2018. In April of 2019, I acquired Country Pup Pet Sitting upon my beloved mentor and former employer moving out of state and have since merged that business and its service area into RCO.

I am so grateful for our community’s support and that so many wonderful people trust us to care for their most precious companions. My team and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us and plan on only expanding on the gold standard we have set for pet care in our community. Thanks for choosing RCO!
