Pet Sitting in East Haddam

“Fran is a wonderful, caring, communicative sitter. She was punctual, sent thorough updates, and went above and beyond to make sure our dog felt safe and cared for. Highly recommend!”

“I cannot say enough about Laura. We love our kitty, Dolly, and she in turn is very attached to us. We booked a last-minute vacation and learned that our kitty-sitter had moved out of the area. The minute Laura arrived for a meet and greet I knew I had found the perfect person to care for Dolly. She did everything we asked, and did it well, graciously accepted on-the-fly schedule changes, sent photos and warm, loving messages with each visit. She is absolutely wonderful. We've already asked her to plan for our next two trips.”

“Brooke did a great job visiting our dog, Truth! This was our first time booking someone on Rover. We found Brooke last minute, and she did a great job answering all of our questions and communicated with us very quickly. We were super relieved and would definitely recommend and rebook with Brooke!”

“Jenn took awesome care of our fur babies while we were away! Great communication and super flexible.Litter boxes cleaned and furballs were picked up. I forgot about my son’s aquatic dwarf frogs and asked Jenn last minute if she can feed them too and without hesitation she helped us in a pinch. Thanks again!”

“Troy is terrific at this. My pup is timid at first, and Troy has had the patience and taken the time for her to warm up to him. He is trustworthy and reliable. I am never concerned about my pup when Troy is caring for her. Highly recommended!”

“Holly M. is amazing! She is the best pet sitter I have ever hired. It is very clear how much she loves animals and how much mine love her. My dog is initially apprehensive around new people, and Holly knew exactly how to handle it. She is so friendly and easy to work with, and she is reliable, trustworthy and she goes way above and beyond. Lulu can't wait to see her again! I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

“Thank you so much Erin for dropping in on my pups last minute. You were very clear on your arrival expectations and you followed my care instructions perfectly. The dogs clearly were excited to see & play with you!”

Cayton M.

“Marisa went above and beyond during her check-ins with our strong-minded Stella. She came the day before the first check-in to meet Stella and made a big effort to get to know her and connect with her. Stella now counts Marisa as one of her best people. We very much appreciated the pictures, videos and reports. It gave us peace of mind to enjoy our time away knowing Stella was happy and taken care of. We highly recommend Marisa and look forward to the next time.”

About: My husband and I recently returned from Costa Rica where we volunteered on a dog farm assisting with bathing, grooming and giving lots of love to almost 2,000 rescued dogs that live there. My husband also has a separate rover account under Maxi S. During my high school/college years my mother trained 5 different dogs for guiding eyes for the blind which I helped in the training process as well while home. I also started housesitting and caring for pets of local neighbors at the young age of 10. We have always had dogs in my home. I couldn’t imagine living without a dog. I have experience with dogs of all ages, puppies to senior dogs. I myself have a 9 year old cocker spaniel who thinks she is a human. I understand all pet owners and their pets have different needs and will respect any rules required to give your pet the care they need. I will treat your dog like my own. My family just returned from Costa Rica. My husband and I are both looking for flexible part time work which allow us to still care for our 1.5 year old son. You can also find my husbands separate rover account under maxi S. At the moment our schedule is open and flexible but as we find work our schedules will be changing depending. We have a good sized yard which is not fenced in but in a quiet neighborhood with a cul-de-sac. I don’t usually crate my dog, but if your dogs are crated I am familiar with crate training. I am a flexible person and am able to modify based on your pets needs.

About: I am in the military and want a dog very badly but cannot have one of my own. Dog sitting will help you and me. I have every other weekend off and available anytime. Also every other Monday Tuesday available anytime. Flexible schedule to work with your schedule as well. My apartment complex has a fenced in area for dogs to take care of their business. I am in a very quiet friendly neighbor hood.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them never feels like work—it’s something I truly enjoy. I’ve spent a lot of time with pets and I love getting to know their individual quirks and personalities. Whether it’s a playful pup, an older dog, or a cat, I take the time to connect and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and happy. I believe pets deserve our full attention and respect, and that’s exactly how I approach every visit. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m here to make that easy for you. I’m excited to meet your furry friend and give them the care they deserve! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I do work part time but I’m able plan my schedule to make sure I’m fully available and focused during each visit or walk, and I always allow time for travel, play, and updates to pet parents. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening cuddles, I make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need—no rushing, just quality time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine as closely as possible to keep their pet comfortable and stress-free. I take time to understand feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions so everything stays consistent. I make sure pets feel safe, respected, and loved in their own space—whether that means going for a walk, playing, or simply being a calm presence. At home, I have a dog who I adore. Caring for him daily has taught me how important it is to give pets the attention, structure, and love they need. I make sure he’s well-fed, gets his favorite treats, and always feels included and cared for. That same level of care is what I bring to every pet I look after. Cleanliness and communication are also important to me. I keep things tidy and will always give updates with photos or notes, so owners know their pet is in good hands.

“Kierstin was great with our senior pup! Responsive to our booking request and came over ahead of time to meet our dog and understand what we were looking for. Would definitely recommend and book with Kierstin again!”

“Madison is the BEST! Our old walker moved and my husband and I scrambled to find a new walker we liked and could trust which wasn't the easiest task! Madison is reliable, responsible, very commutative, and more importantly great with our pets. Before our initial walk we communicated a lot back and fourth and I was that annoying dog mom with a million instructions. Madison was professional and handled my requests with ease including the request to - carrying around my chihuahua if necessary lol. When one of my pups was sick Madison took the liberty of cleaning up after him and even put cream on his paws!! I look forward to her rover cards and photos I receive daily. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great pet sitter. She has been my walker for the entire month and January and I already booked her for February. With Madison your pups really are in great hands.”

About: Hello! I’ve always been around animals my whole life and have 2 dogs of my own currently. Georgia is a 11 year old boxer-pit mix and Nero is a 9 year old husky/ Doberman/ lab mix. I have experience with pet injuries, health complications, and administering medications such as insulin injections. I work in the Old Saybrook school district and have time off, when I’m available to help with drop ins, dog walking, feeding, and medications. I can also collect mail and help with odds and ends when owners are away! I wouldn’t be able to bring animals into my home, due to one of my dogs having aggression towards other animals. However, I am available to stay in your home overnights.
