Meet the Crew
Niki
My love of animals started at a young age when we spent summers in Virginia where we would catch fireflies in the meadows and crawfish in the creeks. We were always gentle with them and released them safely. Life has come a long way since then and I have met so many wonderful animals!
When I have spare time I volunteer for Northern Bound Rescue here in CT and walk the dogs and sometimes even get to take them out on excursions! It has been so rewarding and I hope someday I can start my very own nonprofit to help local pets in need. I am an animal advocate and I believe the way someone treats animals shows you who that person truly is.
I will most likely be the one to show up to serve your pets but I do have some trustworthy and caring people who lend a hand when needed.

Lyndsey
My name is Lyndsey. I am a mother, friend & fun photographer! I recently found a love for photography when I found enjoyment in hiking; exploring the beautiful outdoors and capturing the moments I was living. Not only alone but with my son, making memories together to look back on.
I have always loved tagging along for drop in visits to meet all the friendly pets. Finally, I decided to bring my camera along. Who knew your pets would be my most enthusiastic clients! I appreciate every pet I put in front of my camera for the smiles they bring to me and hopefully to you, their owner.
Don’t be surprised to see your pet having the time of their lives, wearing different accessories and just living their best life! I am excited to have the opportunity to meet all of your pets and get them to SIT, BE A GOOD BOY OR GIRL & SAY TREATS! My photography page can be found on Facebook, Lynz_photgraphy92.

Kareena
Hi my name is Kareena! Working with furry friends is the most rewarding job! The dedication, and genuine love for our four-legged friends extends to every interaction with me. I have a deep understanding of animal care and I share a commitment to their well-being. I strive to create a positive and enriching experience for both animals and their owners. Whether it's providing care, practicing commands, or simply showering them with affection, my goal is to foster strong bonds and happy tails wherever I go.

Jayda
Hi everyone! My name is Jayda. I’m a proud pet parent of two dogs, two cats, one chinchilla, as well as two fish tanks. I love to keep busy with my pets and all my free time is spent training and playing with my animals. I’ve been a dog walker full time for the past three years in Austin Texas, and now that I’m back home here in CT, I am beyond excited to meet all your furry family members. My favorite animals to work with are high energy dogs I could walk and explore for miles! But of course, it’s very relaxing when I meet a good old couch potato as well. I’ve decided to keep pursuing a career in helping care for my communities pets because it brings me such joy that people can depend on me to keep their pets safe and happy so that pet parents can live worry free. I will be pursuing a degree in zoology to learn more about wildlife conservation and marine biology because one of my other passions is working with aquatic animals.

Niki takes care of my pups whenever I need more flexibility than my daycare/boarding can provide, like holiday or weekend dropoff/pickup. She sends fun pictures to put our minds at ease. She also does drop-ins for my kitty to feed him and he loves seeing her. She even takes the mail and paper in while we are gone. Highly recommend.
Niki is great! My dog is very particular about who comes in the house but he is very comfortable with her. She’s helped me out so much. Highly recommend!
Absolutely love Humble Hounds! Niki is so amazing with our pup! She loves him as her own, and takes such good care of him, even with some of his difficulties! Thank you always giving the best care! (And she takes the best pictures haha)
