“Another great visit from Lori! My dogs love her and that’s all that matters to me, BUT Lori is also really great and so easy to work with! She has great communication and not only made sure she knew every detail about my dogs, but also took time to make sure she acquainted herself with our house so she’d leave the house and dogs secure after her visit. I really appreciated that.”
“Erin took amazing care of our 3 babies. She was extremely quick to respond and would spend 30-45 minutes with our dogs each visit and kept them company. She was very understanding when our plans would change slightly and had no issues adjusting the schedule. Highly recommend.”
About: I'm a huuuge pet lover! I have two cats of my own, routinely watch/walk my brother's dogs, and also volunteer at my local cat shelter every weekend. Cleaning up litter boxes, poop, hairballs, and puke are second nature to me haha! I also took care of my senior cat who lived to 23 years, so senior pets have a very special place in my heart. Rest assured your pet will be in great hands with me. :) I am remote 3x/week so my schedule is very flexible. I am often free any time of day (besides tuesdays & wednesdays) from 7am to overnights if needed. I'm flexible to all scheduling - just let me know! I do dog walks, dog feedings, cat feedings, and cat walks (if you are interested!) :) I will keep all pets company if youre just at work for the day or need a late-night stay for a date-night.
“My seconding time booking Deborah and she’s great! Follows the routine. And plays and loves on your pet! The first thing she said to me once I rebooked with her was “I’m so excited to see her again.” which is something very heartwarming to see when you’re leaving your pet to be taken care of by someone.”
“Absolutely fantastic Sitter (what every one of his 50+ reviews says & more. Actually deserves a 6th or 7th Star!). Jade is extremely communicative. Even did research on my pet prior to showing up for the walk-thru). - Recognized the cat was 12 years old & asked if he needed any medication or dietary needs (very impressive)! Jade has a way with animals - my cat (normally a little skittish of people he isn’t familiar with) warmed right up to him. Even checked the mail for me (without being asked). Can’t recommend high enough & I will definitely call upon his services again!”

About: I try to take parts of Cesar Milan's strategy with dogs specifically. Trying to not reward bad behavior. Making sure a pet can respect my boundaries. Currently have a dog walking client at Winding Brook Condominiums in Meriden. I’m there twice a day for 30 minute walks and play. I bought some balls for her so she can play. Have videos and lots of photos. I work flexible hours as an independent contractor so I make my own schedule. I am building my pet care business so I am signing up for a drone pilots license for pet recovery. I am also working on upgrading my vehicle to a minivan. I am offering pet sitting in your home until that can change to my home. I am needing different things done to my home before I can bring pets to my house.
“Brinkley had such a great time with Alex. I could tell they played a lot of fetch because Brinkley was sleeping the rest of the day until I came home from work. She made a point to try and meet Brinkley before coming to take care of her to make sure she knew what my girl needed.”

“Alex watched my dogs for several days while I was out of town and took fantastic care of them. She played fetch every time she went by, sent several pictures, and let me know anything out of the ordinary. I would highly recommend letting Alex take care of your fur babies!”
About: I am passionate about animals, taking care of them, loving them, especially since they are not able to communicate for themselves. Dogs are amazing creatures and full of unconditional love and being with them every day is a pure joy and doesn't feel like a job. I go above and beyond to take care of these animals, which are family. I am very loving, kind, reliable, dependable and enjoy being with dogs, petting them, being affectionate with them and taking care of them is very rewarding. This is not just a job for me, it is a passion and a joy to be with dogs of all kinds, walking with them, taking care of them, talking to them is very rewarding. Thank you very much.

I give lots of love and care and petting. Animals love to be pet continually
“Literally the best! I have been using her for a couple months now regularly if not once a week then multiple times a week -just about. Extremely flexible and caring for my puppy!”
“Kenzie is fabulous. Her love and ease with animals was evident at our first meet. Kenzie is flexible and dependable. She went above and beyond to check in on our cat while we were on vacation who wasn’t feeling well. We felt such a sense of relief knowing our animals were in safe hands while we were away. Highly recommend.”
“Kailah has been great with my dogs! I have 2 rescues who are super nervous around new people. This was our 3rd time booking with Kailah, she has been super patient and they are starting to warm up to her. I would recommend Kailah and will definitely be using her services again.”

About: Hi! I have extensive hands on experience working with animals and caring for pets of all kinds. I currently work in the pet care industry and have a strong background with dogs, cats, reptiles, and more. Animal care isn’t just a job for me, it is something I am truly passionate about. I am responsible, reliable, and very attentive to each pet’s individual needs. Whether your pet needs structured care, exercise, enrichment, or extra love and companionship, my goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you are away. I believe in clear communication and will always keep you updated so you have peace of mind. My schedule allows flexibility outside of work hours, and I am happy to accommodate different routines whenever possible. At home, I have my own pets and understand how important consistency, trust, and routine are. I treat every animal as if they were my own and focus on creating a calm and positive experience for them. I work full time in the pet care industry, so animals are truly part of my everyday life.

I’m happy to go directly from work to your home if needed, and I prioritize consistency, communication, and reliability so your pets stay on a routine they’re comfortable with. Safety and structure are extremely important to me. I have hands on experience working with dogs of all temperaments and energy levels, and I always respect each pet’s individual routine, boundaries, and comfort level. In my home, my pets (a dog, two cats, and a snake) follow consistent schedules and are supervised closely. When caring for your pet, I maintain a calm environment, use safe handling practices, and follow all instructions carefully. Including feeding, medications, training cues, and any special needs.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cheshire
This was my first time using rover and leaving our cats alone this long but Jordyn was honestly so great. During the meet and greet the cats immediately liked her. And for each drop-in Jordyn sent us multiple pictures and a description of the visit which made being away so much easier. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing cat care.
Christine was from the start very thorough, detail oriented and very caring. This was our first experience with her and she did not disappoint. Christine is a very kind and thoughtful person and it showed in her daily reports and photos she sent. She cared for our kitties for 10 days and they are not used to being alone for that long. Christine took extra care to be sure they knew she was there to help them without overwhelming them. We felt very comfortable that they were going to be in good hands and we know they were. Thank you Christine! Will definitely be booking with you again.
It's always a bit stressful leaving our dogs alone when we are gone, but we were able to gain a peace of mind knowing Victoria was watching over them. She was very prompt to arriving at our house to watch our dogs, spent a good amount of time with them, and gave us picture updates throughout. We highly recommend Victoria if you are in the Cheshire CT area!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
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.
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
