“Tara did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats while we were away! She provided us with detailed updates and photos every visit and was excellent with communication. Would highly recommend her to anyone!”

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.
“It’s clear that Amelie truly loves and cares for animals. She took excellent care of my dogs, both of whom are very anxious. Amelie handled each of them with great care and thoughtfully adjusted her approach to meet their individual needs. She was flexible with scheduling, reliable, communicated consistently, and asked thoughtful questions to ensure she provided the best care possible. I would highly recommend her for anyone in need of pet care services.”

About: To me, your pets are never “just pets” they’re family. ❤️ As a pet parent to 5 fur babies of my own, plus my bunny, I understand how much trust it takes to leave them in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your babies with the same love, patience, attention, and protection I’d want someone to give mine. I love and care for all cats, dogs puppies, young, adult , and seniors even (seniors have a special place in my heart ) ❤️ As a college student, my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility and free time throughout the week to care for your fur babies! 🐾 I love spending my free time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s schedule and make sure they get the time, attention, and care they deserve! I know our fur babies are family, so I’ll always treat yours like my own! 🐾 I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their home. Safety is very important to me, so I always double-check that fences and gates are secure, and if there’s no fence, they’ll always be safely on a leash outside. Lots of love, attention, and playtime included! ❤️
About: I’ve been caring for and dog-sitting for family, neighbors, and friends for over 10 years, including paid pet-sitting. I have experience with both small and large dogs with different personalities and love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and making sure they feel comfortable. I currently work as a private basketball coach, so I have plenty of availability during the day to hang out, play, and go for walks. I’m also available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting on weekends. I provide attentive, reliable, and personalized care in your pet’s home and during walks or drop-in visits. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine while giving them plenty of one-on-one attention, exercise, and affection. I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have plenty of experience being around and helping take care of dogs all ages sizes and breeds! I love pups who want to run around or just lounge on the couch! I’m more than happy to treat yours like my own. I’m currently a full time second year graduate student at SHU, but my classes are mostly in the morning. I have some long days but always finish before 5. Fridays are wide open including weekends and most days I’m done fairly early! I am happy to accommodate whatever safety measures make you and your pup comfortable! If they need to be crated that’s perfectly fine, if they can run around without a leash that’s also great too!
“We are so thankful to have found Alexis! When we first met her, she instantly put our minds at ease. She is punctual, communicative, and responsible. She stayed at our house with our dog for a week and took wonderful care of both our dog and our home. We got updates and pictures daily and quick responses to our texts. With Alexis watching our dog, we were able to have a worry-free vacation!”

“Olivia is amazing! She watched our three high-energy dogs. We have a small Doodle, a medium Doodle, and a very large Golden Retriever. They loved her! She was always on time and shared great photos and updates during her visits. We will definitely rebook Olivia for future visits as she is wonderful with our boys and a great communicator. Thank you, Olivia!”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, I helped care for my family’s Shih Tzu, Kelly, who lived a long life and gave me experience caring for an older dog and understanding the extra patience and attention senior pets need. More recently, I had my Frenchie, Tyson, who recently passed away. We spent so much time together going on daily 3-mile walks, cuddling, playing, and simply enjoying each other’s company. Caring for him taught me how important consistency, love, patience, and attentiveness are when it comes to pets. What sets me apart is the genuine care and connection I build with animals. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them with the same love, comfort, and attention I gave my own dogs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just calm companionship, I’m happy to adapt to their personality and routine. I’ve always had a dog in my life, and I truly enjoy the companionship, activity, and happiness they bring every day. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with dogs. I’m available every morning for walks and again after 5:30 PM for afternoon/evening walks. I love starting the day with long walks and giving pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I’m also available for boarding on Fridays through Sundays. On weekends, I enjoy spending extra time with pups, whether that’s relaxing together, grabbing a pup cup, or visiting the dog park if that’s something your dog enjoys! I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs. In my home, pets will have lots of attention, supervised outdoor time, and space to relax. We have a small fenced-in yard, and I love spending time outside with dogs for fresh air, playtime, and walks. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m happy to follow their normal routine and any instructions they provide to help their pet feel comfortable and secure. If crating is part of their routine, I’m comfortable using a crate both in my home or the client’s home when needed. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I always try to make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while in my care
About: I’ve had the joy of caring for a wide variety of animals throughout my life—including dogs, cats, and reptiles. Growing up in a home full of pets taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding each animal’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s a playful pup, a shy cat, or a curious gecko, I truly love all animals and take pride in providing attentive, compassionate care. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family, and their safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I’m available full-time for pet care, with a flexible schedule that allows me to be there when you and your pets need me most—whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or extended stays. As a current dog owner and an active individual, I naturally incorporate walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures into my daily routine. I enjoy hiking, going to the gym, and staying on the move, which means your pup will get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Alongside my love for animals, I work as a artist, which gives me the flexibility to manage my time well and be fully present for the pets in my care. I understand the value of trust and reliability—both in real estate and in pet care—and I bring that same level of professionalism and dedication to every pet I look after. Your furry friend will be treated like family, with plenty of love, attention, and activity tailored to their needs. While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, I live in a very dog-friendly area with several parks nearby that I regularly visit with my own dog. I love being outdoors and make it a priority to give dogs plenty of time outside for exercise, enrichment, and fresh air. I also have a spacious SUV that’s perfect for safely transporting dogs to local hiking trails and nature spots throughout Fairfield and neighboring towns.
About: My name is Katiana Thoby and I have been dog sitting since 2017. I am able to watch your cute pets any time of the week (unless the day is marked off)! You will love my patience, kindness, and affection towards the dog. I've watched my friends' dogs before and learned how to work with them and take care of them properly. I enjoyed playing some games like fetch and running around with them. Since my parents don't like animals, I can't have my own dog. When I have my own house, I want a dog of my own so this will be a good experience for me. Thank you and I hope to work with you soon.. I am currently working full time so I will be available to dog sit on the weekends or tuesdays after 5:30pm! Just let me know in advance and I can open a booking for you. I will be available on some holidays but I will let you know in advance! Please make sure to book at least two days in advance. That way, I can make sure I don’t have any other appointments that day. I may accommodate some last minute bookings if I am available the whole stay period. Most of the time, they stay indoors and I attend to them as much as possible! They will be fed on the times provided and well taken care of! If you would like me to provide a bath as well, please let me know. I love playing with them so I usually bring your pets to the park as long as the owner is okay with it (also provides a leash)!
About: I was lucky to have 2 fur babies for 20+ years and have taken care of animals for almost my entire life. I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages, and am available for drop-in and overnight visits to your home. I'll play with your furry friend, take them on a walk, give medications, help with training, feedings, grooming or cleaning the litter box. I'm happy to send photos and updates, and will show them the same level of care that I gave to my own companions. My schedule is currently wide open, allowing me to spend whatever time is needed with your pet. I'm available no matter the day or time. I'm happy to supervise while your dog does their business in the yard, or go for a lengthy stroll around the block. Unfortunately, my living space doesn't allow for pets, so I'm unable to offer care in my home.
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!

Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. 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 Meet & Greet .
