“Izzy watched our cats for 2 weeks while we were away. She took excellent care of them and always sent pictures and updates about how they were doing. Izzy is an outstanding pet sitter and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone and will be using her again next time we are away.”
“Jenny did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were away. We would absolutely use her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter”
“Kai and Devon were great with my cats! They were well taken care of while I was away for a long weekend. They even got my shy one to come out to say hey! Would recommend.”
“Cathy could not have been a better sitter. She was communicative, stuck to the routine and went the extra mile for us. I’m so glad I booked her for our weekend travels and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again in the future. Would recommend her to anyone!”
“Autumn is great with our dog. Her rover cards are always on time and she is great with communicating and responds quickly. She goes above and beyond and brings in the mail and packages. It’s so nice knowing our dog is being taken good care of when we can’t take him with us. Highly recommend Autumn.”
“Amanda did an excellent job watching our kitties. She is highly dependable, flexible and does a thorough job. I would definitely love to have her watch our cats in the future.”
About: Hi! My name is Dante and I absolutely love dogs. I do not treat this as a job but as a privilege to take care of pets. I have always had a pet in my household, so I am very comfortable with dogs. I am young and promise I will have just as much energy as your dog does. I am very good at butt scratches and belly rubs. I will be prepared for any situation and I am very easy to contact. I understand plans get altered and I am flexible with changing schedules. I will treat your dog as I treat mine and make sure everything is done to the best of my ability. I hope you allow me to make your dog’s day the absolute best I can. Thank you
“Our second time having Olivia do drop in visits with our pups! She is so flexible and accommodating. The pups love her. Thanks again for taking great care of our little fur babies.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my whole life. I had my own dog sitting and walking business from ages 14-19 and then stopped dog walking when I adopted my first dog. Now, we have 3 dogs, and I would love to help other families with their fur babies! My husband and I work full time but will be available on weekends. We also can provide services in the late afternoon/evening. My husband and I will both be assisting, and will make time for you and your babies! I work remotely 2-3 times a week. We’re best able to assist with boarding, on Fridays and the weekends. We can dog walk on the weekends and evenings. During the weekday, our availability is more limited given our full time jobs. We can care for a few dogs at a time, if you are comfortable with it! If not, let us know and we can limit our care to just your pet! We have a large, fenced yard! We also have 3 friendly dogs of our own! They are our family! We are respectful of other people’s homes and their family members.
About: Hi, we’re Bree (22) and Nick (23)! We have loved and cared for animals our entire lives. Growing up, our homes were always filled with pets, ranging from dogs and cats to hedgehogs and lizards! Because of this, we are incredibly comfortable with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and unique care needs. We absolutely love all animals and will do everything to make them feel safe, happy, and right at home when you’re away. When your pet is with us, they will get lots of attention, plenty of playtime, and a schedule that follows your requests. We promise to send you daily photo updates so you never have to worry. We can't wait to meet your furry family members! Bree: I will be the primary person taking care of your pets! As a graduate student and a part-time substitute teacher, my schedule is predictable. I have class Wednesday and sometimes work weekdays depending on my course load. Fridays-Sundays I always have full availability! Nick: Nick has a full time job, so he will be available to help out when not working! Safety is my absolute top priority. I always ensure that doors, gates, and windows are closed before letting any animal roam. When we go for walks, pets are securely leashed at all times, and I am always aware of my surroundings. I ensure all hazardous items and human foods are stored far out of reach. For peace of mind, I provide clear communication and send regular photo and text updates throughout the day!
About: I grew up with rabbits and various small pets. My first dog, Toto, was trained by me in elementary and middle school. Now, I spend my evenings caring for others animals whenever possible! I work 7:30 am to 3 pm as a teacher! My day does allow for a mid day visit, distance depending! Free every evening for walks and lots of attention! Experienced with crate trained dogs and more free range styles. Love building trust with animals and keeping their days typical and calm while their owners are away!
“Colleen is so great! We have a typically nervous pup who warmed up to her immediately. Colleen took the time to understand her and was patient with her. She made us feel comfortable leaving Sasha in her hands for her first time staying home alone. Thank you!! 😊”
About: From puppies to older dogs, I've done it all: taking puppies out every 2 hours at night, specific medications at certain times throughout the day, to planned walks/runs. I have experience with puppy training fostering and now I'm training my own kitten. I'm a senior college student who has a lot of time to spare- especially on weekdays! I'm always available to take dogs on walks, jogs, or just for a quick little stop in. Treating fur-babies like my own has always been an easy feat for me. When it comes to home saftey, whether it be my own or a clients, simple communication goes a long way. House rules, schedules and specifications are always a big thumbs up from me!
“Callie is just the sweetest pet sitter! Not only did she provide tons of cuddles and play, she even left a treat jar for Bailey and a thank you card after she was gone. What a sweet sentiment! Bailey appreciated the treats so much! And the thank you card was so sweet! Thank you Callie for that extra special touch! We will be sure to use her services in the future!”
“When Dani and Mello met what a relief and comfort. She truly loves animals. Mello looked so happy around her. Every time she came to the house she alerted us. Gave us details of her visit with him and an alert was made when she left the house. I am definitely using her again. The Rover app made everything easy. Thank you both!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Lady! We could tell by the pictures provided that she had a great time playing in the backyard and she looks forward to hanging out with you again soon!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 9,013 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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.
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.
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.
