About: I’ve been raised around dogs since I was an infant & they were puppies. Growing up, I was able to spend time & care for different types of dogs. I believe that with consistency, patience, and rewards (treats/toys), I would be able to train a puppy to do tricks & properly go to the potty! ☺️ I am a part-time healthcare worker that works 8 hours out of 3 days of the week, so with that being said, I would love to look after your pet on my days off! Your rules/requirements are mine as well. I’m not sure if anyone in my building is allergic to cats or dogs, but we could make some accommodations. If you would prefer care to be provided within your home, let’s discuss further on how you would like for me to look after your pet, and how to ensure that we are all comfortable and safe.

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors and family friends pets for years, along with my own pets. I also worked at two boarding kennels over the course of 5 years and I have been working as a veterinary assistant since May 2023. I also have experience with farm animals and small exotics, ie. reptiles, rabbits, etc. I recently finished school at UConn for Animal Science. I currently work as a veterinary assistant. I would be available before and after work, as well as during breaks depending on location. I will always put your pet first during my time with them and will give them all my attention! I am experienced in medication administration if your pet requires!
“Zach was a fantastic cat-sitter! He followed all my directions and was super communicative the whole time. Absolutely loved the pictures and videos he sent, really made me feel like my cat was in good hands while I was on vacation.”
“I cannot recommend Leah highly enough! Leaving my cat, Bailey, is always stressful, but Leah made it completely worry-free. I received daily updates and the cutest photos, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear that Bailey wasn't just being fed, but was actually getting genuine affection and he loved every minute of it. I came home to a very happy, relaxed cat. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
About: Hi there! I’m so excited to meet you and your furry family member! I’m not just a dog sitter — I’m a true dog lover who believes dogs are family. They aren't "just pets" to me; they are loyal companions who deserve all the love, patience, and care we can give them. I live an active lifestyle and love spending time outdoors, which means plenty of playtime, walks, and adventures for your pup! Whether it's tossing a ball in the backyard, going for a stroll, or simply having cozy cuddle time inside, I’m here to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and happy every moment you're away. I provide potty breaks every two hours to make sure your dog stays comfortable and healthy. I also pay close attention to emotional needs — I understand how important it is for dogs to feel loved and secure when their people are away. Every tail wag, every happy bark, and every little paw print matters to me. When you trust me with your dog, you’re not just hiring a sitter — you’re finding someone who will love your dog like my own. I am reliable, attentive, and committed to keeping you updated with lots of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. Pet care is a natural part of my life because dogs are like family to me. I just finished college, so I have a completely open schedule and can dedicate my full attention, love, and energy to caring for your dog all week long. Their happiness and well-being will be my top priority every day. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a big house with plenty of space for them to feel comfortable and safe. While my backyard is large and open (unfenced), I always supervise outdoor time very closely to make sure your dog stays safe and happy. I love giving them plenty of playtime, attention, and a cozy, calm environment where they can feel completely at home. If I’m caring for your dog in your home, I’ll follow your routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. My goal is to make every dog feel loved, secure, and well-cared for, no matter where they are.

Ansonia dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sara is amazing. She followed my instructions and she kept in touch with me on how our old lady was doing. She used good judgment with regard to the poor air quality and heat by limiting the time our dog was out. She paid attention to our dog as well. I desperately wish she lived closer to us and am so thankful that she was able to come to our home. I highly recommend her and believe anyone who gets to have her take care of their pets is very lucky. She also has excellent work ethics.
Bruce was able to help us with walking and feeding our dog Bergie on short notice. He took great care of him (we’ve never left him with someone other than family) and Bergie loved him. I appreciate how communicative Bruce was and that he gave Bergie lots of attention and exercise.
Sarah is the best! I have an older pup and an independent cat; right away she put my mind at ease as her experience and care for animals radiates. She communicated clearly and promptly with me from the pre-booking to after the visits. She followed every direction and went above and beyond. I loved her updates and photos; I appreciated her kindness and attention to details. My pets said they had an amazing time with her! I would recommend her and welcome her back any time.
Esmeralda was FANTASTIC. My husband and I were out of the country for 5 days and we were in need of care for our English bulldog and senior French bulldog. Esmeralda did an outstanding job of communicating, providing gentle care, timely visits multiple times a day, doling out medications, keeping the house clean, sending follow up photos and more. I will absolutely be booking her again and would recommend her to anyone who needs professional and compassionate care for their pets.
