“Katrina was great checking in on our 2 cats while we were on holiday. One cat is very skittish but she opened up and played by day 2. Katrina was prompt for all check ins and great with communication (even when we were slow). We will definitely be using her again to watch our babies.”

About: For the past ten years, I’ve dedicated myself to providing professional, high-quality pet care, specifically focusing on dog walking/sitting. Over the last decade, I haven’t just walked dogs—I’ve managed schedules, built deep trust with clients, and mastered the art of understanding animal behavior and safety. Whether navigating the logistics of running a busy daily schedule or ensuring that every dog in my care receives personalized attention and exercise, I treat the responsibility with the highest level of professionalism. Ten years in this industry has taught me incredible time management, adaptability, and how to deliver exceptional, reliable service that keeps clients coming back Im my own boss! I work my own hours and will schedule according to YOUR needs!! Early mornings, mid day or late nights… whatever works for you! Animals will be kept at close distance and leashed. I have my own transportation (if needed). When I am with the pet my attention is completely focused on them!
“Cheryl is great! She visited and went over our dog's needs (she is currently paralyzed), then rechecked with us on her care upon arrival. We got photos and she received lots of snugs from our dog!”

“Erin had great communication throughout the whole process. Our meet & greet was seamless and the whole visit went great with our dog! Highly recommend. We will be booking Erin for future needs!”

About: I have taken care and walked neighbors/dogs within my area for the last three years, as an adult. Throughout childhood I was around pet-friendly households and have grown to love all types of animals, but especially, dogs. I am a teacher and high school coach. My hours and schedule is pretty flexible outside of 8:00 AM to 2:30 PM. I do have a break within the day where I am capable of feeding or walking the dog at hand. I live in a very spacious, new apartment. I do not have a fenced yard, but the dog will never come off the leash (unless instructed to otherwise). I am a personable and friendly guy who gets along with both people and dogs!
“We opted for drop-in visits for our dog and Gabby did an amazing job. She understood the instructions well and was super responsible in handling him and getting in and out of our home. My dog had a great time and we’d definitely hire Gabby again! 😊”

“Tracy and Steven were awesome—our pets were clearly in great hands. They really took the time to bond with them, playing with our dog and giving lots of attention and cuddles to our cats. They showed up three times a day like clockwork and even grabbed a couple packages from the front door, which we really appreciated. The updates and photos after each visit were thoughtful and reassuring. It made a big difference not having to worry about our animal children while we were away. We’d definitely book them again.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since childhood and previously had 2 dogs of my own. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and providing calm, loving care to both dogs and cats. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs and personality. I have a structured but flexible schedule that allows me to reliably care for pets before and after work, as well as on weekends. I prioritize clear communication and consistency so pets feel comfortable and owners feel at ease. I create a calm and safe environment by following the pet’s usual routine and the owner’s instructions. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and respectful of both the pet and the home, treating each situation with care and responsibility.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I previously worked as a dog bather in a pet boarding facility, where I learned how to handle and care for dogs during stressful times. I also helped out with the daycare program a couple times a week. I am patient, attentive, and truly love spending time with dogs! I am a student, so my weekends are free, and Mondays and Fridays are very flexible for me. I can plan my daily schedule around walks and drop-ins, and I am available early every morning. I always treat my clients' home and pets with respect and ensure safety at all times. I double-check locks, leashes, and gates, and I stick closely to the pet's routine. I am mindful of each pet's needs and communicate clearly with the owners throughout the visit.

“Chelsea took great care of our pet while we were away on vacation. She was communicative the entire time and transparent about everything. She provided photos of our pet with each visit. Chelsea was punctual on all her visits with our pet and never late. I would recommend her services to anyone in need of a dog walker.”

“Elissa was great. She was friendly and asked a lot of questions during the meet and greet. During the drop in, she gave the pups good playtime outdoors and they ate well. Arya and Yoshi had no signs of stress when we arrived home.”


About: I have over 10 years of pet care experience, taking care of my family’s two dogs and cat, fostering dogs for two years at a local animal shelter, and sitting/ walking neighborhood pets. I currently am free all day, 7 days a week until I begin work as a preschool summer camp counselor in the end of June. After that, I still have a lot of availability, M-F anytime after 3pm and anytime on weekends. I have a fenced yard and crates available if needed. I live in a safe neighborhood with a park nearby which is perfect for walks, and have an animal-loving family. I am an avid rule follower, responsive communicator and will prioritize ensuring the safety of each pet.
About: I have always been involved in pet care in my home for over 15 years. I have had experience with elderly dogs and cats of my own. I have pet-sitted in my neighborhood for puppies and for breeds different from my own dogs. I will use my energy to play with your pet and hopefully decrease their energy. I have a very flexible schedule since graduating college and applying to graduate school nearby. I have lots of time and availability for stop-ins during the day or bringing study materials to a client’s home. My yard is fenced in and I can take dogs for a walk in Brookdale Park nearby. I will administer medicine and play with dogs and provide them with a cuddly environment.
“Tyler is such a wonderful person, he's very patient and kind towards the dogs! Rescues can surprise you with new reactions, Tyler showed compassion and love and eventually the problem child learned to trust him. I will recommend Tyler to anyone who is looking for that extra help! Thank you!”
“Jade was absolutely incredible. I have 4 crazy Aussies that are full of energy but also full of love. Jade paid close attention to all my directions and my dogs were so happy to have her come see them every day. She gave them lots of love and worked on tricks with them to keep them engaged. I would recommend Jade to anyone who needs pet sitting or dog walking. She was wonderful.”

Fairfield dog parents share their Rover experiences
Claire watched our poodle puppy Pippa for a night while we were out at a baseball gam, and she was terrific. Shes a great communicator and easy to work with. She offered to come by for a meet and greet to get to know me and Pippa before watching her, which I really appreciated. She sent frequent updates and pictures during her stay - and I could tell that my dog was having a great time with her. I highly recommend Claire for anyone looking for a pet sitter.
