Levi communicated well and clearly did a great job with our dogs. Usually, we can tell when we have been gone because they are more anxious when we return. This time, it was like we never left. We would recommend him to any of our friends!

Shannon has been with my dogs twice now. First time was as a drop in visit and second time was house sitting for 4 days. She kept me updated throughout the time I was away as well as kept my dogs very happy. They loved being with her and I was pleased with her care for my dogs. Shannon will now be my regular pet sitter as she is available and willing!

About: With a flexible schedule, years of dog ownership, and no competing obligations, your dog receives loving attention, personalized care and is always my top priority. Pet care is my priority. With a completely flexible schedule and no competing obligations, I'm available throughout the day and week to provide attentive, loving care whenever it's needed. Your pet safety and comfort always come first. In my home, pets are treated like family with plenty of attention. Regular walks, playtime, and a consistent routine. While I don't have a yard, I take dogs out frequently for exercise and bathroom breaks. In your home, I'll carefully follow your pet's normal schedule, feeding instructions, medications and any special routines to help them feel secure and comfortable while you're away. I always keep owners updated with photos and messages for added peace of mind.

I thought I knew what a 5 star pet sitter was like, but Makayla has set a new standard! Our 2 cats and 2 dogs were WELL taken care of. One of our pitties can have door aggression, but after a meet and greet we found a way for Makayla to safely come and go while we were away. By the end of the trip, the anxious pittie was Makayla’s shadow. We got daily updates and pictures. Makayla knows how to take care of anxious pets AND their anxious pet-parents. We will absolutely be scheduling our next vacation around Makayla’s availability.

Megan stayed at our house for a week with our pit mix who can have some separation anxiety. She was fantastic we highly recommend her. Our house was spotless when we got home and our dog was well taken care of. Her communication is great and we got lots of photos. We will definitely book her again.

About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. We've always had at least one dog in our household and also currently live with a cat. I have also walked other dogs and have taken care of dogs here on my own. I currently am unemployed and am not yet in school so my schedule is completely open. The only issue that I might have for these next few months would be an issue with scheduling with the rest of my household. I have experience handling large and small dogs and do not get worried if the dog gets worked up. I am very aware of how empathetic dogs are and can remain calm. I also can keep to a schedule and give pets the love and care they need and deserve.

About: I have flexible availability, and I work from home most days - to ensure my pups, and yours, will be able to get all of the attention and love they deserve! I've gone through dog training with my own dogs, and my border collie is an aspiring therapy dog and she often accompanies everywhere I go. I am fortunate enough to work primarily from home and can accommodate early drop offs and late pick ups during the week! Available most weekends. When your animals are here with us, they are fully integrated into the family. There will be lots of walks, cuddles, kisses and have full access to our home as if they are one of my own animals ❤️ *we recently put in a fence, so your pups will have more room to play and can stay safe! I have two dogs of my own, Boon & Tristney. They are both lovers, but Boon is still a puppy, so he loves to play! Tristney, she loves love, hugs, and belly rubs. She's a shy girl and likely won't play, but always enjoys a companion on our daily walks. We also have a cat- but he spends most of his time outside. Its unlikely he'll make an appearance, but when he does it's mainly for dinner. As a 22 pound cat, he never misses a meal. If I am not home at anytime I do have a teen and a husband that help fill in any gaps of time. The two of them are also big animal lovers and are incredibly helpful.

About: What sets me apart is that I focus on being consistent, attentive, and calm with every pet I care for. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual routine and personality, so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I’m also patient with different needs, whether that’s energetic puppies who need structure and playtime or older pets who may need a slower pace and extra care. I make sure communication with pet owners is clear and reliable so they always know how their pet is doing. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because I’m very organized and consistent with my schedule. I’m comfortable handling feeding, walking, cleaning, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so fitting pet care into my weekly routine feels rewarding rather than stressful. I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and cared for by following their normal routine as closely as possible. In my home or a client’s home, I focus on feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, playtime, cleaning up after them, and giving them attention and companionship. I also pay close attention to their behavior and comfort level to make sure they’re happy and stress-free. If the owner has specific instructions, I always follow them carefully to make sure their pet receives the best care possible.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I’ve been 14 years old. I’ve had experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes! I have a passion for animals and love to make them feel part of my family. I’m currently in respiratory school while working a part-time job, which has helped me develop strong responsibility and time-management skills. I’ve always loved animals and enjoy caring for them whenever I can. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide reliable, attentive care and give your pets the time and attention they deserve. I accept cats and dogs that are able to stay in the comfort of their own homes. I feel like as someone with animals the safest place an animals can feel is when they’re in the comfort of their own homes.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have always had a deep love for caring for them. Growing up with dogs taught me early on how to be responsible, patient, and attentive to their needs. Over the years, I’ve regularly helped care for neighbors’ and family members’ dogs, handling everything from daily walks to overnight stays. I currently work at a dog kennel, where I care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Through this experience, I’ve become confident in administering medications, managing feeding schedules, and maintaining a clean, safe environment. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or special care, I’m dedicated to making every dog feel happy and loved. I am currently a nursing student and am able to care for pets before, after, and between classes, as well as on weekends. I’m great at managing my time and always make sure pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or weekend stays. Every dog is unique, and I always adjust my care to fit their individual needs, energy levels, and personality. Whether your pup loves long walks, prefers quiet cuddle time, needs extra patience, or has specific medical or behavioral needs, I’m confident in creating a routine that keeps them happy and comfortable. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Whether I’m caring for a playful puppy or a senior who needs a slower pace, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

About: I grew up on a farm and have always had pets. Cats, dogs and even a cow and chicken or two. I strongly believe our pets are family members just like our human family. I've had big and little dogs, and many different cats. My current little man is my best buddy he is spoiled and loved so much. He's 7 years old and loves other dogs to hang out with. He doesn't pay any attention to cats. I would love to care for your family member, giving you peace of mind that they will be well cared for and loved on while in my care. My availability is completely open, any day and time. I'm very flexible with dates and times, whether at your home or mine. Thank you for your time and I look forwars to hearing from you! I have a fenced in area for bathroom breaks and a large yard on a quiet country road to run and play in. I have space for a crate, I even have a very large one that can be used if necessary. Also have an almost two mile lane around our farm property to walk and run around. My home has plenty of space for exploring or just chilling out.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bridgeport

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 238 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bridgeport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Bridgeport walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Bridgeport maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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!

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.

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 .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.

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

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
