Commission approves two home pet‑sitting home‑occupation applications
Summary
The commission approved two home‑occupation pet‑sitting applications (Boardman Road and Evergreen Road), each noting Connecticut law generally exempts residents boarding three or fewer animals from commercial licensing and that the applicants represented they would not exceed three animals.
The Planning & Zoning Commission approved two home‑occupation applications for pet sitting. For application 26‑11 (Boardman Road, Map 37 Lot 033, owner Daphne Robb) commissioners confirmed the property is fully fenced and the applicant indicated she does not intend to board more than three animals; a commissioner noted state guidance that "no person who boards 3 or fewer cats or dogs in his or her residence should be required to obtain a commercial rental license." The motion carried by voice vote.
The commission then approved application 26‑14 (Evergreen Road, Map 26 Lot 056, owner Laura Gonzalez) after confirming the applicant's bookings showed no more than three animals and that a new fence had been installed. Commissioners emphasized these approvals were limited to day‑time/short‑term pet sitting (no overnight boarding was represented).
