“Nicole was great!!! My cat threw up and she cleaned it up in addition to his litter which he loves to kick out of his box. She even came back to turn his auto feeder on when it somehow became unplugged! Very good thorough and prompt communication and my cat really liked her!!!! I came back to a very happy cat and a clean apartment. Thank you!!!!!!”
“Mary Ann recently cared for our two cats for the second time. Once again, we were thoroughly impressed with her service. She is incredibly attentive to our cats' needs and shows great care during her time with them. In addition to her care for our pets, she is very respectful of our home and consistently responsive in her communication. We truly appreciate her reliability and the peace of mind she provides while we are away.”
“Christine was fantastic!! I knew my kitty was in good care with her. I could tell my kitty was happy and well cared for. Christine jumped in at the last minute to replace a sitter we had a bad experience with, and she followed every instruction, was very communicative, and bonded well with my kitty. Will definitely book her again.”
“Zoe did an amazing job caring for our two foster kittens and two adult cats over a long weekend. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and a clean, organized setup. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. We would happily recommend Zoe to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Irem was amazing! We booked her pretty last minute, and she was so accommodating. Her communication was great the whole week, and I really appreciated all the photos and updates she sent after/during every visit. I came home to two happy cats, and I would absolutely book her again. I highly recommend her!”
“Jordyn is great with our cat and dog! Jordyn has been helping out with our dog for the past couple of months and was eager to help with our cat while we were traveling as well. She is always communicative and kind!”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with animals and my hands-on care in different situations. I’ve been taking care of my own dogs, cats, and bunnies since I was six years old, so I understand daily routines, exercise needs, and how to keep pets happy and safe. I’ve also helped my grandmother care for cats through the Start Foundation, where I learned patience, gentle handling, and how to look after multiple animals at once. Because of this, I’m comfortable with pets of all ages—from energetic puppies and kittens who needs attention to older pets who require a calmer, more careful approach. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’ve always had responsibilities taking care of animals at home. I’m used to planning my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention they need. I’m consistent and organized, so I can easily stick to a pet’s routine and follow any specific instructions. On a weekly basis, I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be reliable and available for regular visits or last-minute needs. Taking care of pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make it a priority to give them quality time, whether that’s exercise, play, or just keeping them company. For dog walking, I make sure each walk is safe, structured, and tailored to the dog’s energy level and needs. I follow your usual route or preferences, keep dogs securely leashed, and pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. During walks, I allow time for exercise, bathroom breaks, and a positive interactions so they stay happy and engaged. For drop-in visits, I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine. This includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning up after them, and spending quality time with play or companionship so they don’t feel lonely. I also keep an eye on their overall behavior and well-being, making sure everything seems normal while you’re away. For cats, I make sure they are safely in their home and always being careful about opening the door so they don't escape. I take my time till they get to know me. In both cases, I respect your home, follow all instructions carefully, and provide dependable, attentive care so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since before I started high school. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for pets belonging to relatives, neighbors, and friends. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and committed to giving every pet the individual care and attention they deserve. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or simply some extra love while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I’m also available for house sitting and would be happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel comfortable, confident, and cared for while you’re away. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I’m especially available during weekdays and can make time to give your pups the attention, playtime, exercise, and care they need. I have experience caring for dogs by making sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise, and a safe and comfortable environment. I treat every pet with patience and care, and I’ll always make their safety and well-being a priority.
“Rivera did an amazing job with our cats, again. Sent plenty of photos, and made sure they were fed, had water, and their litter stations cleaned. Will be sure to have her back for future visits while we are away. Would recommend again and again!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have had my own since I was younger. I currently have two small dogs, so I’m very familiar with daily care, routines, and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I’ve also helped take care of friends’ pets, including dogs and cats. I’ve done drop-in visits where I fed them, played with them, and made sure they were well taken care of while their owners were away. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. I always make sure pets feel I work mornings, but I’m available for pet care in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m off on Sundays and Tuesdays, so I have extra flexibility those days for walks, drop-ins, or longer visits. I’m reliable and like to stay consistent with schedules. I’m also easy to communicate with and happy to adjust based on what works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I make sure dogs are secure on walks and always pay attention to their behavior and surroundings. I’m patient and adjust to each pet’s energy level, whether they’re playful or more calm. I also send updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe and doing well.

“We had a fantastic experience having Nataliya take care of our cat while my wife & I were on vacation in Aruba. We really appreciated how Nataliya kept in touch with us & was constantly sending us pictures & texting us to let us know how she was doing while we were gone. Nataliya made us feel very comfortable & we definitely will refer her to our friends & family…”

“Delaney was amazing! She was so friendly, reliable, and clearly cares about animals. She kept me updated with photos and my cats warmed up to her so quickly. She even went the extra mile to clean their food mat and offered to take out our trash so the house wouldn’t smell when we got home. I came back to happy, relaxed pets and everything spotless. 10/10 would recommend — she’s the best!”
“After another sitter canceled our booking at the last minute, we needed someone to house-sit within a day or two, and Alexandra came to the rescue! She took wonderful care of our cats for nine days and kept us updated throughout our trip. The photos she sent gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cats were happy and well cared for. We would absolutely book with Alexandra again!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fairfield
Nicole was our first experience with Rover. We were going on a fairly long vacation and couldn’t take our cat with us, so needless to say, we were a little nervous about leaving her behind. We booked Nicole for nine visits, and she was fantastic. She always showed up when she said she would, did everything we had asked, and sent us detailed updates after every visit. She played with our cat, groomed her when needed, replenished her water bowls, and cleaned the litter box. Nicole is an extremely reliable and dependable pet sitter—no weirdness, no drama, just someone you can trust to show up and take good care of your pet. We know pet sitting is only a temporary, part-time job for Nicole as she finishes college and prepares to move away from Boston, but the maturity, trustworthiness, reliability, and sense of responsibility she showed us will serve her well wherever her career takes her next. We are extremely grateful to Nicole for taking such good care of our cat and giving us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely recommend her.
