“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my fur baby to Briana, and I couldn’t be more impressed! From the moment we met, it was clear that Briana is passionate about animals and genuinely cares for them. She took the time to learn about my dog's unique needs and routines, ensuring a smooth and comfortable stay. Briana kept me updated with adorable photos and messages throughout the day, which made me feel at ease. It’s evident that she not only has the skills and experience but also the compassion to be an outstanding dog sitter. My dog came back happy, healthy, and tired from all the fun activities Briana provided. I can’t recommend Briana enough—if you want your pet to feel loved and cared for, she’s the one to call!”
“Monique took great are of our dog Cork. We were very nervous about leaving her for a week. Monique kept us updated with daily pictures and was very accommodating with our drop off and pick up times. When we picked up Cork she seemed happy and well cared for. We highly recommend Monique.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my passion for personalized care and my experience with various dog breeds. I currently work at a veterinary hospital as a receptionist and I love my day being filled with many furry friends. I ensure pets develop good habits from the start, and I also provide attentive care for senior dogs, catering to their unique needs. My home offers a safe, playful environment, and I prioritize regular exercise and mental stimulation. With my flexible schedule, I can accommodate last-minute bookings, and I offer photo updates so you can see your furry friend’s adventures! I currently work during the week, but I have full availability on the weekends to accommodate your furry best friend and their needs. I’m also able to accommodate boarding during the week as we are a very pet friendly household and there’s always someone at home to ensure your pet feels comfortable and well taken care of. I have a fenced yard, and the most adorable labradoodle at home to keep your best friend company. I’m also able to provide a crate if needed, and I am able to take your pets on as many walks as their heart desires.
“Spencer and his fiance Meghan were wonderful! Super kind, extremely communicative. They often texted me photos and updates on peaches and she seemed very comfortable in the photos. I am looking forward to working with them in the future.”
“Jon and Kayla were amazing! They took great care of our dog Aspen and were so prompt with communication and updates throughout the day. They are so kind and so trustworthy to take care of all of our pets needs. Will definitely rebook their service and recommend them immensely!”
“I highly recommend Skarlett for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. She took care of my dog Kingston for the third time and did a fantastic job. Skarlett was attentive, responsible, and made sure Kingston was happy and comfortable while I was away. I received daily pictures and videos. I'm grateful for her services and will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Sandra was fantastic, I would definitely book with her again. She took great care of it dog and made him feel right at home. She provided daily updates which gave us peace of mind. She was flexible for drop-off and pickup times. She was thorough to ensure it would be a good fit and that our dog would be comfortable. He was happy for us to come home but misses Sandra and her family already!”
“Kaleem has been very accommodating with schedule changes and boarding our dog Barkley on short notice. Barkley is a puppy and is always getting into something and Kaleem has no problems working with him. Barkley gets to interact with other dogs while in Kaleem’s care and is pooped by the time he gets home. I def would recommend him.”
About: One of my first pets ever was a black and white cat named Simba, who was referred to as my sibling. In recent years I have taken care of my family dog, Tank, a small dog who lives up to his name. I have also cared for friend’s pets when they are out of town for weeks at a time. Pets are part of the family and I understand how deep the love is! I have such a respect for all animals and look forward to caring for your little sweeties :) I work remotely on Mondays, which gives me flexibility during the day. Evenings I am available after 5:30pm to check-in on your fur babies. I also have more times available over the weekend. I can provide care between 10am-10pm on weekends, but I am unable to indicate that given the app settings. I live in a dog friendly apartment complex with many grassy areas. I also love going on walks at nearby trails or taking dogs to parks. Cuddles are always welcome, but I also respect dogs that want their space.
About: I have been taking care of animals for over 30 years! Never met an animal that didn't like me after meeting me. I know how to adapt to their vibe and usually end up with lots of puppy and kitty friends! I am very flexible and easy going. I love animals and it literally brings peace and joy to my life to be around as many as possible each day so if I am not with my own animals I would love to help with yours! I can stay over night for animals if needed. I am very flexible and trustworthy. I have animals and I know how they need us! I can drop in for potty breaks or I can take them for long walks and hang with them! I am very open to meeting your needs.
“This was our first time leaving our 10 month old pup Gehrig. Naturally we were very apprehensive, but Sandy put our nerves to ease along with her lovely children and their dog Daisy. They have a wonderful fenced in yard where Gehrig was free to run and play. We will definitely use their services in the future. Thanks”
“Kristen was awesome, highly recommend! Very accommodating considering that it was a major holiday with a chaotic schedule, excellent communication leading up to and during our dog’s stay with her, and a down-to-earth person that truly loves animals and welcomes them into her home. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“My Golden had a great stay with Connie and family. She sent photos, gave updates, and we met before at a dog park to make sure our dogs got along. He was well cared for, and even sent him home with a goodie bad with some treats. They are much more like professional caretakers and couldn’t recommend enough.”
About: I take care of my friends and neighbors pets (boarding) for them to go on vacation. They have peace of mind that they are in a safe and loving place I’m currently working part time and close to home. I have plenty of time to play and care for your pet. I’m able to provide various potty breaks, and follow eating schedules, morning and afternoon walks I have a fence yard and I live close by parks and nice places to walk and provide the right amount of exercise that your pet needs.
“Ingrid was fantastic with our dog Waylon. We had photos, updates and he came back happy. Ingrid also has a great little area for dogs to play which has dif wonders for our dog. Will be using her again very soon.”
“My dog is usually very scared and timid, but Hailey was amazing with her! Not only was Hailey super accommodating of me reaching out last minute - but my dog genuinely seemed like she enjoyed her time away at Hailey’s house. She was always smiling in photos and super content when I picked her up. We will definitely be booking with Hailey again. (:”
“Karen took a great care of our yorkie during a 2 week family vacation. We received pictures and updates every single day. You can tell that Karen and family treated Ricky like their own. I would highly recommend her for future sitting if you do not want to put your pup in a traditional kennel.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Haven
This is a great experience for both Finn and myself! I could tell how much Kaleem cares for the animals in his world. He is genuine, down to earth and 100% understanding of my needs for Finn. I only have one overnight “at sitters house” and was in desperate need of another one. To find Kaleem, so close to home, was just a miracle. Finding a “at sitters house” has proven the most challenging…so finding Kaleem is a true blessing. I know Finn is in good hands …my senior pup 🐾🐾
Dominique and Brandon are absolutely exceptional. If I could give 10 stars I would. They took amazing care of our dog and treated her like she was her own. She was attentive, reliable, and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us complete peace of mind. We came home to a very happy and well-cared-for pup. We have tried boarding our dog with other people and I can say after she stayed with Dominique and Brandon she’s just so happy, playful, relaxed, it looks like she had her own vacation! You know when somebody took great care of your dog. Dominique and Brandon will be my go-to! They are amazing! Thank you Dominique and Brandon!!
Claudia and Juni (her pup) were SO awesome and went the extra mile during his stay to make Chase feel at home! From play time to hand feeding him when he didn’t want to eat to playing search games for mental stimulation. She also sent many videos and pictures which I very much appreciated!! I highly recommend her and Juni for your future dog sitting needs!!
Sai was excellent and amazing when boarding my dog for a couple of days. Followed all instructions given and provided updates throughout the day. Since this was my first time using this app I was a bit skeptical with everyone but I gained confidence because Sai is amazing at care for our loved ones. Will definitely book again if needed, Highly recommended.
Erika was simply wonderful!! She kept me completely updated with my dog, how he was doing, and what he was up toand made sure to follow his medication schedule as well since he is epileptic. I am so happy I trusted my dog in her care. My dog looked so happy in all the pictures and was so comfortable at her house. Thank you so much Erika for taking such good care of my snowy!!

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 .
