House Sitting in Amity, New Haven, CT

“Marie was amazing with our needy , energetic frenchie! You can tell she cares deeply for animals. She asked all the right questions, making sure she understood our dog's needs and routine. She checked in often and kept us updated, which we really appreciated. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does. We highly recommend her!”

“Kira was the perfect fit for dog and house sitting! She is very reliable. She must be a dog whisperer! My dog is usually very unsettled after I return from a trip. With Kira, it was like I never left!! I would highly recommend Kira!!!”

“Emily is so sweet and thoughtful and knows how to read the needs and personality of the pup (and owner). She has a real knack for care. Wonderful house sitter and I will absolutely book with Emily again to stay with Mowgli again!”

“Dahn was wonderful with our dog Levon! We went away for about 4 nights. Dahn was excellent at contacting us and sharing pictures with Levon. She was so attentive with him, catering to his every need. Dahn is kind and loving and it comes through tenfold with the animals she takes care of. This was the first time anyone has stayed overnight with Levon and Dahn allowed me to completely relax, knowing he was in such capable hands. If you're trying to find your next dog sitter/dog walker, look no further!!”

“Veronica was amazing! She took excellent care of our pup and was very communicative. Cooper was very well cared for and we felt at-ease leaving him with Veronica, even when he had some special needs and required extra attention/help. We would highly recommend her for any pet care!”

“Matt was/is amazing! A true hidden gem or maybe not so hidden but either way I'm glad I found him. His immediate calming demeanor was just what my semi high strung energetic dog needed, as well as my timid cat. He was flexible, punctual, incredibly kind, and went above and beyond while caring for my fur babies. It made being away from them that much easier as my mind and heart were at peace. He also sent me lots of photos of them which always brightens my day when I'm away from them. I could not recommend Matt enough.”

“Pauline is awesome. Lots of pictures and great communication! She took excellent care of our babies! We already have future dates booked, and we won’t hesitate to book more dates. Thank you Pauline!”

“Steven and Claudia are kind people and great cat and house sitters! They took care of our cat Hugo for 2 weeks and kept us updated with messages and pictures. We came back to a happy cat and clean house and wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again. Highly recommend!”

“This was my first time booking a cat sitter through Rover - Jen is phenomenal! She is so kind, and was consistent, reliable, thorough, and thoughtful in taking care of my two cats and home. She went the extra mile by showing care about understanding the cats’ routine, bonding with them, sending updates, and keeping things clean in my absence. It was so nice to trust that the cats were being well cared for while I was away at a research conference, and Jen was perfect with communication/updates. I will definitely be a repeat client of hers!”

Kayla H.

“Olivia did an amazing job taking care of our three critters - 2 pups and a cat. She provided daily photo updates and was super responsive. We really appreciated having her stay over so we knew everyone was in good hands! Would definitely book her again.”

Becky P.

“Heather watched our 11 year old chihuahua mix for two nights while we were away for our wedding. It was our first time leaving Birdie with a sitter and Heather was amazing. She sent lots of photos and updates, and we did a meet & greet before booking so we had time to get to know her before the business of our wedding weekend. When we returned, our house was impeccably clean and Birdie was relaxed and happy to see us. Thank you SO much Heather, we look forward to rebooking in the future!”

Katelyn W.

“Amanda was just great. She was very responsible and respectful and very communicative. She sent us pictures of Buddy and kept us informed of what he was doing. We felt very comfortable about being away knowing that Amanda was there. We found everything spotless when we returned and we really appreciate that! We'll certainly have Amanda back!”

“Mary Rose was wonderful!! Very communicative, caring, and did a great job updating me while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter. The frequent pictures she sent of my boy throughout the day eased any worry and I knew he was being well cared for. Cloud approved and made a new friend😊🤍”

About: I love Dogs it doesn't matter if is not my own. They all need love and care. I will make any dog feel like home. I have train my dog to sit give pal and roll over since he was 10 weeks old. I work from home, so we spend a lot of time together. Working from home allows me to give my dog time and love, go on walks I have a very big space and a room just for my dogs and dog sitting. I also have access to the trail and big front yard they can run.

“Corrie took such good care of my cat, Bodhi. She communicated daily with pictures and updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Corrie for your pet sitting needs.”

About: I grew up with three ridgebacks and a beagle, all of whom needed specialized care into their later years. Now, as an adult, I really miss getting to spend so much time with dogs — I would view getting to walk, feed, or play with your dog as a privilege, not an obligation. I work a pretty unorthodox job that leaves me with a open schedule for weeks at a time. The money is nice, sure, but I mostly just need something to fill up my days. I’m very flexible, and more than willing to work with you and your pet’s schedule. I really just aim to make clients animals as close to their everyday routines as possible — it can be jarring for some dogs to have a new person around! A happy dog is a good dog, I find.

“Super great. Helped us out on short notice and followed our instructions perfectly.”

About: I have been responsible for my own pets’ care since I was 12. I have had a very active German Shepard mix and Sharpei growing up, which I was responsible for feeding, bathing, and care. I have a family friend that I walk and hike their dog for so I am comfortable doing both if your dog is more active. I currently work fully remote from my home with schedule flexibility so I am able to take pets for walks in mornings, afternoons, and most evenings. My schedule allows me to be flexible for walking and pet visits during guardian vacations, time away, etc. I have a pet-free home for any pets that are not used to other animals. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood with green space. When dog-sitting, I take the approach of playing with a pet outside and familiarizing prior to introductory period in the home.
