“Allison was amazing!! We hired her to drop in and take care of our pet cat and she did such a great job. She set up a meet and greet to get to know our cat first, and I could tell by the questions that she was asking that she truly cares about animals. Even our skittish cat took to her right away. We felt such peace of mind knowing Allison would be caring for her while we were gone. 5 stars, would definitely book her again!!”
“Amy visited our house daily to feed and play with Tilly while we were out of town. She provided prompt and friendly communication and made sure everything she needed to care for Tilly was addressed. Amy’s reliability allowed us to relax just that much more on our vacation knowing that our pup was happy in good hands.”
“Isabelle is so sweet and she was great with our boy Boone! We didnt have enough time for her to meet Boone prior to booking so our boy was nervous when she first got there, but she made sure to give him his space and time to warm up to her. It paid off because they spent the evening on the couch together 😊 She followed the schedule we provided and she sent photo and picture updates throughout their time together, which was great. Boone made a new friend so we’ll be sure to book Isabelle again!”
“Rachel recently completed drop in visits for my 2 dogs and my cat. This was a repeat booking and I was equally as satisfied as with my initial booking! She is reliable, caring and extremely trustworthy. I highly recommend her!!”
About: Your pet is family. I treat them with love and sincere care. Their safety, happiness and well-being are my priories. Walk, play, quality time together.. My schedule is wide-open. I have the ability to make drop-in visits, walk, play, sit in your home, give medications. (Able to help doctors/nurses and those who work alternate schedules, 12 hour shifts and those who want to leave their pets in good hands). I will listen to your routine, your pet schedule, your pet’s personality, likes/dislikes and behaviors. I will follow your instructions and provide updates whether it be walking, feeding, playing, sitting your pet.
“Linda took such great care of my two cats, one senior and one young. She followed all of their special care feeding instructions and spent quality time with each cat so when I returned from a week long trip both kitties were cool, calm and collected! I would be happy to book with Linda again.”
“Carlie is FABULOUS! She had quality visits with my two dogs, and provided thorough, insightful honest feedback about how each was doing. One is an elder requiring heart meds. He showed some signs of stress on one of her visits which she described to a T. She had the good judgement to give him a pee and poo break but forego the walk with him. Next visit he was great. Based upon her feedback I felt completely confident that they were in the best possible hands. Carlie is a vet tech, and this added skill/ experience was obvious in how she handled things. She is a woman of kind and gentle temperament and great skill. I could not recommend her more highly. THANK YOU CARLIE!”
“John did a great job taking care of our pets. He was responsive, easy to talk to and genuinely cared for our crew of 2 cats and an energetic dog. We will utilize his services again soon.”
About: Hi, I'm Alessandra! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I cared for everything from turtles, a bird, hamsters, guinea pigs, and rabbits to two Golden Retrievers. Today, I have a cat and Golden Retriever of my own, so I know firsthand just how much our pets are a part of the family. As a Rover-user myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust to care for your pet. I also know that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m always happy to tailor my care accordingly. I work remotely and am based in Newtown, which gives me a pretty flexible schedule for house sitting and/or walks and drop-ins throughout the day. I’m reliable, communicative, and mindful of the little things that make a big difference - following your routine and care instructions, respecting your home, keeping your pet comfortable & happy, and sending plenty of updates along the way. My goal is to make sure you feel just as comfortable with me caring for your pet as I’d want to feel with someone caring for mine! I’d love to meet you and your pet(s) — let’s chat and see if it’s a good fit! — Alessandra 🐾 I work remotely from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility for morning, midday, and evening walks or drop-ins. I also offer house sitting, and since I can work from almost anywhere, I’m able to spend plenty of time with your pets and keep their routine as normal as possible while you’re away. My schedule varies week to week, but I’ll always communicate my availability upfront and make sure I can accommodate your pet’s needs before accepting a booking. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care, so my priority is making sure both you and your pet feel comfortable. I’ll take the time to understand their personality, routine, and needs, while paying attention to the little things (securing gates & doors, keeping items out of reach, etc.) that keep them safe and happy. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands and getting plenty of love and attention!
“Stuart took great care of my kitties Mags and Leela while I was away for work -- feeding them, scooping their litterboxes, spending quality time with them, and sending me daily reports with photos. It really put my mind at ease to know they were safe and well cared for. I'll definitely book with Stuart through Rover again, next time I need to take a trip.”
About: Although most of my formal rescue work has been with cats, dogs have always been part of my life too. I adopted my Shiba Inu in 2019, and caring for him as he’s aged has given me real-world experience with senior dog needs. He’s now 11+ with a heart condition that requires medication twice a day, and I handle all of his care — nail trims, baths, daily walks, and occasional vet‑prescribed injections for arthritis. He’s taught me so much about patience, routine, and gentle medical handling. Beyond my own dog, I’ve helped care for many dogs belonging to friends and family, each with their own personality and quirks. I’ve worked with a loud, high-energy Red Heeler; several bold little “Napoleon” Chihuahuas; a nervous, skeptical Dachshund; a giant, gentle German Shepherd; multiple Boston Terriers; a super-smart, high-energy Poodle/Yorkie mix; and a regal Doberman Pinscher. These dogs have given me hands-on experience with everything from anxious and spicy temperaments to confident, goofy, or highly intelligent behavior. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs — playing fetch, going for long walks, or even tackling a strenuous hike. Having a good dog as a companion makes those moments even better. I may be a cat specialist by profession, but I’m a dedicated dog owner by heart, and I bring that same love, attentiveness, and adaptability to every dog I look after. Every day I take care of my own personal and foster animals (cats and 1 dog) and then start making my rounds to feed the local feral colonies. Pet care is my life, not just my routine. There isn't a day that goes by where I am not caring for animals. I will happily comply with my client's instructions about the routine for their pet. I am comfortable giving treats, playing, petting, going on walks/hikes/car rides, feeding, brushing, and crating. I understand that animals thrive on consistency and I am able to provide that for them.

I always make sure to have an eye on them, that they have everything they need, follow instructions given, and make sure to give them love and attention!
About: I love animals! Especially dogs!! nicknamed “dog whisperer.” I have experience caring for puppies, small, medium to large dogs. I care for them as if they were my own. 6 years of experience and I have never had any issues. I am very active, loving, responsible, trustworthy and consistent, your pet will be in great hands. I will feed them, train, walk, play with them, bathe, clean up after them, anything they may require, I can do! You tell me what you need from me and I will get the job done, I stick to my word. I can be flexible with my schedule, especially if told in advance. I am reliable and ready to take on anything you and your pet may need. Thank you for trusting me!
About: I’ve lived with pets my whole life. I’m a biology major pursuing animal science and conservation. I love everything about them and I will be volunteering at the animal shelter this summer! I have experience taking care of old dogs, and hyper ones, from helping out my family and friends over the years. I work on campus, so with my semester ending, I am completely free this summer to focus on caring for these pets! Weekends can be busy but I will account for that in my availability. This isn’t just an opportunity to make money, it’s a way to help and give back to my community. I will care for pets in the clients home by offering play to have fun and be ready to sleep at bedtime! I will also care for them by respecting their space and boundaries when needed. If they are in need of a friend, I am there.
About: With over a decade of hands-on experience, including extensive work at a rescue barn and shadowing at a veterinary hospital throughout my life, I bring a wealth of knowledge in caring for a variety of beloved pets. My expertise spans from horses to dogs, cats, and even exotic reptiles and birds. Since the age of 10, I have been walking, feeding, bathing, and caring for neighbors' and friends' pets. These responsibilities have fostered a deep understanding of their unique needs and preferences. When pets are with me, their comfort and needs come first, and I ensure to care for them in the best way possible. I work part-time, allowing me plenty of availability for your pet. With adequate notice, I can come to your house or have your pet come to mine any day of the week. Additionally, I can visit in the morning and at night as needed. At home, I share my life with two dogs and a cat, all of whom enjoy the spacious comfort of our expansive backyard and the security of being crate trained. This personal connection fuels my passion for ensuring every pet under my care receives not just attention, but genuine affection and tailored care to keep them happy, healthy, and content.
“Caroline is the absolute best. Another sitter cancelled last minute and she was able to step in. She sent SO many pictures and videos of our cats which we loved, we always worry when we’re away and knew after the first day that they were in good hands. She was super communicative and overall the exact type of sitter we’d want. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“Kristin 's care of our two kitties was excellent. She was reliable and attentive to their food and care while we were away. We especially appreciated her photos of them from each home visit! We recommend her highly!”
“Melissa was great with my boys! Super reliable, excellent communication, and friendly. I was so happy to see that they seemed comfortable with her from the photos she sent. Definitely recommend her to anyone needing drop ins for kitties!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for years and currently have two dogs and a hedgehog of my own 💗 Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to help with walks, feeding, check-ins, and giving their pets attention when they need it. I have experience with different personalities from energetic pups to shy or older pets, and I always take the time to understand what makes each animal comfortable. I work part-time during the week, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care 🐾 I’m available Sundays and around my shifts for walks, feeding, check-ins, playtime, and overnight stays. I’m happy to keep pets active with walks and play or spend quiet time with pets who just want company 🤍 I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family 🐶🤍 I’m patient with nervous pets, comfortable caring for senior pets, and experienced with following specific routines. I can administer oral medications, ear drops, and eye drops when needed, and I always make sure owners’ instructions are followed carefully.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bethel
This situation came up unexpectedly and we needed a sitter ASAP. I have never used this app before and was a bit apprehensive but desperate times calls for desperate measures.🙃 Every sitter wasn't able to do this last minute but Allison checked her schedule and got back to me in quick time. What transpired after was nothing short of a blessing. Allison is one of the most professional, detail oriented, punctual and all around pleasant person I've ever met in this field. Her interaction with Milo can only be described as a true dog whisperer. She was patient, calm, attentive and most of all understanding of my dog and his interactions. Milo is a rescue and gets a bit anxious at times but the way he was with Allison is nothing short of awesome. She truly touched his spirit and also that of me and my wife. If we ever need a sitter, it will be her for our first choice and disappointed if we can't get her. Hers is going to be a very tough act to follow.😊
Autumn is an amazing cat sitter. She is reliable, caring, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our cat was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for when we got home. She kept us updated, paid attention to the little details, and treated our pet like her own. We would absolutely recommend Autumn to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.
Punctual, communicative, respectful, and knowledgeable! My cats have a particular dynamic and my older cat has some behavioral idiosyncrasies—all of which Lily took with great stride and understanding. She asked all the right questions and was very thorough in her visits (cleaning, playing, separating my cats for feeding, and more!). My finicky cats opened up to her quickly and my shy one even rolled around in her belly for her! This is the first time I needed a pet sitter and I’m glad my cats and I got to experience it through Lily!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tori did a fantastic job pet sitting for us while we were away last week. Our kitties were happy and well cared for, and we came home to a house that was spotless—which I REALLY appreciated, especially since I’m very particular about litter being tracked around!! 😜 She was reliable, attentive, and clearly took great care of both our pets and our home. We felt totally at ease while we were away and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Will is kind, communicative, punctual and trustworthy. He was great taking care of my pets and I wouldn’t hesitate to have him again. I felt great knowing he was taking care of them when I was far away traveling. I’d highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a great pet sitter.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
