About: I have grown up with large dogs (Dobermans, Pitties, Mastiffs) my entire life. I have been rescuing Pitties for over 20yrs and am currently on my fourth rescue. I am experienced with medication administration, special needs and, all ages of dogs from newborn to senior. I have an hour lunch break and, am free after 3pm daily and, all day every other wknd! I care for my 3 pets and can't wait to get home and see them! I work 7-3 most days but, my dog is yard trained so, can be let out multiple times when I am not at home. Once I do get home, we head out for a walk and then, its dinner time! All of my animals are allowed on my furniture and, choose who's bed they sleep in each night!

“Jae is such a wonderful sitter for our cats! She is patient with their moods and has built amazing trust with them. Her responsiveness and care makes it so that we have total peace of mind when we need to leave our little ones. She’s the best!”
“Carly did such a great job with my little pup! Went out of the way to get to know Bode and his personality. Sent photos, spent a lot of time playing with my little guy. I left a rundown of my puppy’s routine and she followed it to a T. I will be using her again for anytime I need drop in visits!, very trusting!”

“Jen was great! She was very flexible about the drop-in times for Buddy. He's very independent will play the sympathy card with too. Jen was flexible about this too. She sent pics, a video and did a great job. This is our second time using her and we would call on her again to take care of Buddy.”

“Kate was amazing! She kept us updated throughout the entire visit, which gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands. We truly appreciate her care and communication.”

About: I was the primary caretaker of my family dog for about 10 years, while I was living at home, and I was a part-time dog sitter in college. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I’ll have plenty of time to tend to and play with your furry babies. I can make anytime during the week work! :) In someone else’s home I treat both the pet and the house with respect. I ensure I know exactly what the pet is used to: whether they sleep on the bed, use a crate, how they interact with other pets or children. I secure the perimeter (doors closed, yard gate locked), I follow any medication or behaviour instructions closely, and I keep a log of walks, meals, playtime, and potty breaks. At night I do a last check: water bowl full, lights are safe, any doors/windows secured, pet comfortable in its space. I aim to leave the home just as I found it, if not neater.
About: Great to meet you! I have over 14 years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals ranging from dogs to cats to snakes, bearded dragons, and even ants (yes I know)... and the list goes on! Ever since I can remember, I've always loved animals (dogs especially). To fulfill my wish to have a pet, I began volunteering at a local animal shelter and would frequently visit just to spend time with some of the animals and give them some love. There, I was able to learn how to better care for our furry friends, both elderly and young. Being able to play with them was just a bonus for me! While your dog is with me they will have access to a big fenced yard to play in and enjoy. If you'd prefer them to stay in their natural environment, that's fine too! Whatever makes them most comfortable, I'm happy to provide. Every pet's needs & wants are different, which I take the time to acknowledge when caring for them. My top priority is making sure your pets are safe, loved, and content while you're away. Feel free to message me if you have any questions and I'd be happy to help! Thanks for considering me! I love to start our mornings off with a nice hike or walk at my nearby beach, typically about 2 miles. The afternoons will do a shorter walk and have some outdoor playtime. Ultimately, our day will be reflective of what your pups specific needs are. Working from home, your pets will get plenty of time and attention in my care! While boarding, they will have access to roam and play about in a fenced in yard under my supervision. Rest assured, I will take care of your babies as if they were my own. Making sure also to give you daily updates so you know your pup is well cared for!
About: Im comfortable working with friendly dogs of different ages, including puppies who need extra attention and older dogs who may need a slower, more gentle approach. Plus, my dog is very friendly and enjoys the company, which can help other dogs feel more comfortable and social. I've always loved being around animals, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. Whether it's walks, sticking to their normal routine, I'll treat your pet with the same love and attention I'd give my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, so I'll keep you updated with messages and photos while you're away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way. I care for pets in both my home and my client’s home, depending on the service. I make sure they have a safe, clean space, follow their feeding and walking routines, and give them plenty of attention. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to keep their pet comfortable and cared for.
About: I’ve dog sat and walked for multiple families and cared for cats for 10+ years. I am looking to help local families with pet care I work fully remote and have a flexible schedule so I am able to assist in mornings, during the day, and evening regularly and consistently I have two cats at my apartment currently and have owned pets my entire life. For dogs or cats that I sit, I ensure a safe environment to meet every family’s needs

About: I have over 16 years of experience caring for animals and have lived with pets my whole life. I have experience sitting for cats and dogs. I have experience training puppies and caring for senior cats that require daily medication. I am an artist with a home studio. My schedule is flexible to fit pet care into my routine since I create my own schedule. My home is set up for cats with huge windows for bird watching and cozy beds. I also have sufficient space if needed to create separate spaces for cats.

About: Hello, I’ve been dog sitting for the past 7 years! I’m comfortable with any dog, any size, shape, or personality:) I also have farm experience and am comfortable helping with any other animals! I’m currently taking online classes, perusing my degree in mechanical engineering! In August, I’m moving to Florida to become a Disney Imagineer! I have plenty of free time until I leave to help out with your pets:) I love to swim, paint, and hang out with my little brother during my free time. I am comfortable transporting pets in my vehicle to and from the park, hiking trails, etc. For daily stays, I prefer to stay at the clients home, however am open to caring for pets at my home if needed.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and taking care of pets is something I genuinely love. I have had many experiences caring for dogs and cats, and my stays have always gone very well. I currently have a dog and two cats of my own, so I have plenty of hands-on experience with animals and understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, companionship, and exercise throughout the day. I also have my own vehicle, so I can easily come to your home or take your dog out for a walk, hike, or other adventure. I live in Milford, CT, and I’m happy to care for pets in Milford and the surrounding areas. I work from home and I can control my schedule, so I have a lot of time to take care of your dog or cat I provide pet care in your home and always follow your instructions and your pet’s routine carefully. I have my own vehicle, allowing me to travel easily and safely. I’m attentive, responsible, and focused on making sure your pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I've been around animals my whole life - dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, fish, lizards, hermit crabs...I don't know life without fur (or scaly) babies! Dog walking has always been very cathartic for me and it's never felt like a chore. I'm completely comfortable walking any size and any age dog and truly believe in treating any fur baby as my own. While I do love all animals, dogs are the most nonjudgmental and pure creatures; so who wouldn't want to spend time with them? I’m an elementary teacher and am available weekends and evenings. I also have the winter and spring breaks so during those periods my schedule has more flexibility for pet care. I’m very aware of animals’ safety and environments. I have experience with escape artist dogs who need to be closely monitored even when they’re fenced in. I have also cared for highly anxious dogs who need calm and consistent environments to alleviate their stress. I’m very adept in providing whatever environment the pet needs to feel safe and secure.
“Isabel was incredible with our cat Jafar! She was punctual, attentive, and treated our cat like her very own! She sent multiple photos for each visit to ensure Jafar was safe and fed. She gave him plenty of head rubs which he loves! Thank you for treating Jafar like your own! My Partner and I thank you again for putting our minds at ease knowing that Jafar was in good hands. We’ll be booking again in the near future!!”

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.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ansonia
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
