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!
“Hunter watched our cats while we were away and was amazing! We received pictures and updates everyday, plus our cats seemed super comfortable and were even laying on Hunter’s lap. We’ll definitely book with Hunter again the next time we’re traveling!”
“Rachael is fantastic. She took wonderful care of my dog Riggs and kept me in the loop the entire time. Professional, trustworthy, and a true animal lover. I highly recommend her!”
About: Since childhood, taking in and rehabilitating stray animals has been a huge part of my life. No matter the breed, my goal is to provide high quality care and love. I’ve provided plenty of dog sitting and cat care to friends and family over the years. I am a travel nurse (originally from florida) and I am desperately missing my fur babies back home! I’m hoping this will provide the opportunity for some quality time with other people’s fur babies to fill the gap temporarily <3 I currently work 3 days per week as a travel nurse, leaving my 4 days off open to spend time with your babies! I have no other obligations or duties during my off days, so that time is strictly dedicated to your pet. I do not currently have any of my own pets in my home nor any children. I am able to provide several walks for exercise and outside time. My home is very quiet and calm, providing a safe space for your pet with minimal stress.
“Jen was an exceptional sitter for my cat! She was great at communicating and kept our apartment clean and tidy. On top of the normal care I asked for her to do, she went above and beyond by cleaning my cat’s face and brushing him. I loved that she sent videos during her visits. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. I have fostered rescue puppies for five years now. I have also worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility for two years. I am just graduated from college so I am available throughout the week or weekends. I can start booking appointments after June 9th! This includes dog or cat pet sitting, dog walking, or overnights! I will come to your house to pet sit, dog walk, or stay for extended periods of time to ensure the happiness and safety for your pet. Whatever you and your pet need I will do. My utmost priority is your fur baby!
About: I’m a mother of 3 children and two fur babies, a Labrador and a tuxedo cat. In addition to caring for my own pets over the years, I have some experience with foster care as well as veterinary assistance. My schedule is flexible as I am a stay at home parent. Daytime is best but I am also available for night check ins and weekends. My pets are very friendly but I will respect the wishes of the pet owner on how much exposure they prefer their pet to have to other people or pets, as well as any other safety concerns they may have. I live on a low traffic cul-de-sac street, ideal for walking.
“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.”
About: I’ve had pets of all kind since the age of 4 and taken love for them since. I’ve had about 5 dogs, 4 birds 3 red ear slider turtles, multiple fishes and 1 cat throughout. I work full time as a properties manager. But in my spare time I would like to walk some dog as i truest enjoy walks, sitting and a fun time. I would care for your pest as if they were my own(of course respecting all your standards). Communication is key as I would like all expectations to be met and transparency across. To be trusted with a love one is a responsibility I take very seriously
About: I’ve worked with dogs professionally for a number of years and been a dog owner my whole life! I love the loyalty and companionship that dogs provide and firmly believe that their walk or boarding should be the highlight of their day. Each pup has individual needs that I am happy to provide and my dog Felix is always available for socialization as well. I work for the Hamden school system as a para so I have unlimited time over the summer to make your pet the number one priority. I have a large, fully fenced in yard and close access to parks and trails. My pup Felix loves having friends over and gets along with all personality types.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs now for about 2 years as a way to help out family and friends while making an additional income. I have experience doing overnight stays, walks, and visits for both young and old dogs! I am a recent graduate looking for a job, so I currently have plenty of time to look after your pets! Let me know what time and day you would like my help and I will try my best to accommodate. I will work on weekends! When caring for dogs during a walk, visit, or overnight stay, I try my absolute best to follow the schedule/instructions put out for me, especially when caring for older dogs who may rely on a structured rountine. I will always contact you if there is something that concerns me, and I make sure to send occasional pictures of your pet, especially if they do something cute!
“Catherine took wonderful care of my boys, 2 large male cats, on 2 separate occasions. What I particularly appreciated so very much was that when I came home after being away, they were very calm and not at all needy, which is a sure sign to me that they were well taken care of. It was just so reassuring to me to know that! I will be using Catherine regularly in the future!”

I’m available after 5pm on weekdays and before 8:30 (location dependent). I am available anytime on weekends. My home is not equipped - it’s an apartment. I have no problem following any/all rules.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bethany stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bethany choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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.
To find sitters in Bethany with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
