About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. I have over 10 years of hands-on dog experience, from growing up with my Yorkie to being a proud dog mom to my Chihuahua for six years and my Pit Bull for four years. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I provide the same love, patience, and attention that I gave my own pets through walks, playtime, feeding routines, cuddles, and companionship. Your dog will be treated like family, with a safe and caring environment where they can feel comfortable while you’re away. My schedule is flexible and varies week to week, which allows me to accommodate different pet care needs. Since I do not have a set schedule, I’m able to plan around bookings and provide reliable care with advance notice. I appreciate at least one week’s notice when possible so I can make sure I have enough time to prepare and give your pet my full attention. I’m committed to being dependable, communicating clearly, and creating a comfortable routine for each pet I care for. Creating a safe, trusted, and comfortable environment for pets is my top priority. Although I am not currently able to have pets in my own home after recently moving, I still have so much love and care to give. Being able to spend time with and care for animals outside of my home is something I truly enjoy, especially after losing my Pit Bull who was such an important part of my life. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I take the time to learn each animal’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. My goal is to give every pet the same patience, attention, and compassion I would want someone to give my own.

About: I have experience caring for dogs through boarding, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I’ve looked after multiple dogs and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I truly love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. My goal is to make every dog feel happy and cared for like they’re part of the family. I am currently a full-time online college student so I am mostly always home and can guarantee exercise, playtime, and safety for your four-legged friend. I provide a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for every dog in my care. My home features a fully fenced backyard where dogs can run and play freely. The yard is equipped with puppy sun chairs, a puppy pool, and a variety of outdoor toys to keep them active, relaxed, and entertained. I also have a friendly puppy who enjoys playing and socializing, giving your dog the opportunity for companionship during their stay. My goal is to create a welcoming, home-like setting where every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I treat each dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable- whether it’s a walk around the block or an overnight stay.

When I care for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining their usual routine and environment as closely as possible. I respect your space and treat it with care, making sure your pet gets quality time, exercise, and affection while you’re away. I’m attentive to small details so you can have piece of mind knowing your home and pet are well cared for.

Julie is an amazing pet sister! She took a great care of my two cats. She followed all care instructions that I left for her. She kept me updated on my cats every visit and was able to warm up my timid cats. I will be definitely using Julie's pet sitting services again.

About: I’ve been responsible for a pet since I was 11 when I saw a cat outside and I wanted her to feel safe with me. That was what emphasized my love for helping animals in need. When I got my first client I was so excited. I’ve been taking care of their dog, Goldie for 5 years now. She was a bit timid since she was in a shelter but she warmed up and has been loving ever since. She wasn’t used to my cats but now they’re used to each other. I’ve trained her a bunch of basic commands. I’m currently enrolled in college but I only have morning classes so I’m free the rest of the day. I’m also free most weekends all day. I have a fenced yard and I can close my gate for extra security. I have 2 friendly cats that are used to dogs company.

About: I have experience caring for dogs in many ways, including: dog walking, play dates with other dogs, overnight dog sitting when the family is traveling and need help to stay with the dog those days they are away from home, or sometimes I have the authorization to bring them to my house, and daytime care. Through those years taking care of dogs I had a privilege to take care of 3/4 dogs at the same time, providing individualized attention and care to each furry companion. Dedicated to providing love and affection, I ensure that every dog in my care receives utmost comfort and attention. Prioritizing your dog's happiness and safety, our time together includes enjoyable walks in the park, fun playdates with other pups, and plenty of cuddles. Rest assured, your furry friend will always be in capable and caring hands with me. I'm currently working part-time, having time to dedicate to the dogs under my care. I prioritize their well-being by scheduling regular walks, play sessions, and ensuring they receive the attention they need throughout the day. I adjust my schedule to fit their needs, whether it's taking them for walks in the morning before I start work, checking in on them during the day, or spending quality time cuddling with them in the evening. Taking care of these furry friends isn't just a duty for me, it's a source of joy and fulfillment that enriches my daily life. In my house, I provide secure, worry-free environment for your beloved pets. I have a medium fenced backyard where I can take the dog to go potty and a great and friendly dog neighbor. My priority is to give the pet attention and make sure they will have love, and protection the whole stay!

About: Hi, I’m Diana! I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was a kid and have built a life and career around caring for them. I have hands-on experience in training, walking, grooming, and have worked as a daycare attendant at several dog daycares. Whether it’s playtime, structured walks, overnight boardings, or just providing comfort and care, I treat every pet like my own. what sets me apart from other sitters is my deep understanding of pet behavior and my ability to adapt to each animal’s unique needs. I have experience with everything from energetic puppies who need structure and basic training, to senior pets who require a gentle, patient approach and medication support. I’m calm, reliable, and genuinely passionate about making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own environment. Whether it’s reinforcing positive behaviors, managing anxiety, or simply giving lots of cuddles, I go above and beyond to ensure each pet is cared for like family. Pet care is truly at the heart of my daily routine. Since I’m home full-time, my days naturally revolve around the needs, comfort, and happiness of the pets in my care. From morning potty breaks and playtime to enrichment, grooming, and cuddles, I’m fully present and hands-on every step of the way. Being home all day allows me to give each dog the attention they deserve—whether that means sticking to their routine, monitoring their health, or simply making sure they feel loved and safe. Whether caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, structured environment with plenty of attention, a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and the companionship of my two friendly dogs, Opie and Melo. I follow each pet’s routine closely—from feeding schedules and medication to playtime and quiet time—so they feel secure and at ease. In a client’s home, I aim to maintain their pet’s familiar routine and environment, always showing up with patience, respect, and a genuine love for animals.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Bridgeport on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 3,971 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Bridgeport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bridgeport stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

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 Bridgeport 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 .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bridgeport. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
