About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs! I’m also a proud dog mom to my 10-month-old toy poodle, Miffy, who I’ve cared for since she was just 12 weeks old. From potty training and establishing routines to playtime, enrichment, and cuddles, I understand the patience and attention that go into caring for a pup. I work from home twice a week! I’m also available on weekends and holidays. I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! As a puppy mom, I understand the importance of a safe, loving environment, close supervision, and sticking to your pet’s routine. I’ll treat your fur baby like family, with plenty of love, patience, and cuddles while keeping you updated along the way!
“Jacob was very responsive and professional and met with me for the initial meet and greet on short notice which I greatly appreciated. He was consistent with the times he let my dog Zoey out and always included a photo. Thanks again”
“Dominique was FANTASTIC with Bowie! She was able to accommodate our last minute request, she set up a meet and greet, and sent lots of photos and updates. We would absolutely book her again!”
About: Hi there! My name is Megan, but I go by my middle name Jaime! I grew up with both cats and dogs. My first pet was a German Shepherd-Husky mix named Abby, and her strength could’ve pulled an arm out of its socket! She taught me so much about love and care for animals, and especially how to handle walking a big, strong dog. I have provided care to numerous dogs and cats (apart from my own) over the years. My cat, Maximus, is staunchly an only child, but I have found myself really missing canine companions, which is why I’d love to walk yours. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your dog! I have a flexible schedule due to still being in school, and have plenty of time for your pup! I would probably be going on a walk anyway, so I’m really looking forward to bringing canine companions with me. Your dog’s safety and comfort is my top priority. I am very well versed in reading dogs’ cues, and will happily adhere to each dog’s individualized needs. I will never let a dog off their leash or put them in an unsafe or uncomfortable situation. Your dog is safe with me!
About: I have absolutely loved all animals all my life! I currently have a one year old lab mix. He is a fun and energetic pup who loves all other dogs he meets. He is a great play mate. I currently live in a pet friendly apartment with a small dog park and neighborhoods for walks. I currently work from home so I am able to hangout with your pup all day! I am a nurse working remotely, so I am home every day and can hangout with your pup! My dog is very energetic and loves walks and playtime, so your pup will get plenty of exercise if that’s what they want! We also allow pets on furniture and have big dog beds for the pups who prefer to relax 😊 I live in a two bedroom apartment that has easy access to grass, a dog park, and neighborhoods to go on walks. Since I work from home I can take dogs out as much as needed.
“Morgan was phenomenal! I haven’t left our two ragdolls home during travel before, and felt very nervous. She sent so many pictures and videos showing they were well taken care of and not stressed at all. It really put my mind at ease and gave me the chance to enjoy our time away without worrying. She had great communication and was wonderful with the cats. They both took to her quickly. We can’t wait to have her back in the future 😊”
“Dana was extremely considerate and thoughtful of our cats. She communicated well and detailed her visits along with pictures. Our diabetic cat got all his insulin with no issues which was a major relief, first time using rover was wonderful thanks to Dana.”
“Ridgley did great feeding my cat and administering his meds. She spent time hanging out with him and make sure he was a happy guy while I was happy. Highly recommend and will be booking again!”
“Emma is so friendly and a great cat sitter! She was very through in asking about their care and treated them well. My cats can be rambunctious but she did a good job at separating them for feedings and playing with them. She also sent great update photos with the rover cards throughout their care. Would highly recommend!”
“Alexander is amazing! We are so thankful that he was able to watch our two cats while we were away! He always sent us updates and they never missed a meal!! Alexander's attention to detail and professional communication always put our minds at ease. We didn't have to worry at all for the entire time we were gone. Alexander is our #1 choice to be our cat sitter anytime we are away. Highly recommend!”
“She did an excellent job taking care of my 2 cats. They were happy with her for every visit and always gave me updates, she seems to take great care for both of them and I would love to make her my cat sitter again!”
About: My experience caring for dogs began when I helped a neighbor care for his dog while he worked nights. I helped with walks, made sure he had food and fresh water, spent time with him, and gave him plenty of attention and affection. That experience showed me how much I enjoyed caring for dogs. I later became a dog owner myself and cared for my pit bull/boxer mix, Maxx from the time he was about five months old until he was 14 years old. Over those years, Max truly became part of my family, and I learned firsthand the importance of patience, consistency, understanding a dog’s personality, and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I would bring that same care and attention to every dog entrusted to me. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine because I currently have a flexible schedule and can make time throughout the day to give pets the attention and care they need. I’m available for scheduled visits, feeding, playtime, companionship, and walks when needed. I enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something that fits naturally into my day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will follow the owner’s instructions and keep their pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean and comfortable environment, and plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away.
About: Since I was young, I’ve loved animals, specifically dogs! I have always had my own dog and have watched many different dogs, large, energetic, and even puppies! I currently work from home and have my own dog, so taking care of another pet whether it be drop ins or walks, is completely doable. My schedule is very flexible and I can work from anywhere. I have a small fenced in yard and a friendly Labrador! He is super energetic so I am constantly walking him and ensuring he gets his energy out.
“Rachael was incredible! Very responsive via text and was able to help us in a pinch. She sent lots of pics of our pup and took great care of him while we were away. Will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
About: I’ve been around pets for most of my life and understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your animals. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. As a medical student, I’m responsible, attentive to detail, and comfortable following specific instructions and routines. I’m also a pet owner myself, so I know how much peace of mind good communication and regular updates can provide. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, affection, and care that I give my own. As a medical student, my schedule varies week to week, which gives me flexibility for pet sitting and drop-in visits. I’m happy to coordinate around your pet’s normal routine and will always be upfront about my availability. I especially enjoy spending my free time with animals, so your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and company while you’re away. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care, so I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I follow feeding, medication, litter box, walking, and other care instructions closely and pay attention to changes in behavior or routine. I’m respectful of your home and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Connaughtown
Lindzey was great with my kitties; even my most shy kitty, Willow, came out to say hello! I received daily updates on how everyone was doing while I was away, and Lindzey was very communicative about how everyone was doing, which kitties came out, and what was done during each visit. I would recommend Lindzey to anyone looking for care for their feline family!
Alexis did a wonderful job watching our 2 boy cats while we were away. She is very respectful & was attentive to our preferences. Our boys looked so happy in the pictures she sent us during her visits which let us know they were comfortable with her. I highly recommend!
Rhea took care of our cat Biscuit while we were out of the country for 10 days and she was an amazing pet sitter. She was so great to work with and provided tones of updates and pictures that helped us be able to relax while we were so far away! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet while they are traveling and we will definitely be looking to work with her again in the future!
Morgan is hands down the best cat sitter we have ever worked with. When I say she went above and beyond during one of our family trips, that is an understatement. 2 days into our 10 year anniversary trip, Morgan arrived at our home to find 2 floors completely flooded. We were on a time difference, and she spent hours at our home trying to get control of the situation until we were able to get things situated. She continued to come back and care for our cats during absolute chaos of the damage being demolished and still took excellent care of our boys. She made the best of the situation and gave us so much peace of mind when we were across the country and unable to manage things ourselves. Morgan is a pleasure to work with on so many levels, and her level of professionalism and dedication is unmatched. Thank you again!
We were very impressed with Heather, from the initial meeting to introduce her to our cat and go over where things were in our house to the thorough communication during our vacation with the most pictures I have ever received from a cat sitter. 10/10 and will definitely hire Heather for our future vacations.
Aidan was an amazing sitter for my 2 cats. She spent about 30 mins per visit for water/food/litter box changes, checking on them when they were hiding and playing with them. I really appreciated here detailed updates, reliability and care. Will definitely book again.
Grace was absolutely wonderful with our two cats while we were away! Her communication was thorough and prompt, and she went above and beyond to help with other things that came up around the house. What really stood out was how much quality time she spent with our cats and how genuinely she got to know their individual personalities. Her thoughtful updates and messages gave us so much peace of mind during a long vacation. We came home to two happy cats and a well-cared-for home. We would absolutely recommend Grace and will definitely book her again!
Rachel took excellent care of our two kitties while we went on a weeklong trip to California - she was fantastic! The communication was instant and she shared photo updates daily. She even went above and beyond pet sitting to notify us when the power in our downstairs room went out, watered our plants etc. This was our first time being away after we moved to a new house, so we were worried about how they would handle it. But when we got back, the boys seemed happy and weren’t anxious at all. Our shy kitty was even beginning to warm up to her, which speaks volumes - it usually takes him months to be comfortable around new people. He also gets angsty when we are gone for more than a couple days and spite pees after we return, however this time we had no accidents! Apart from that, she’s truly wonderful and a kind person. We’ll 100% be rebooking with her for future trips!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Connaughtown is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $3 and $32 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 9,717 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Connaughtown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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 Connaughtown. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
