“Someone who is on time, tires my boy out with walks and play, and makes my boy feel comfortable enough to take a nap is a five star for me. My dog’s anxiety can be a lot at times. However having him feel comfortable enough to take a nap and not waiting at the door when I get back in my book is huge.”

“We had an amazing experience with Abigail while we were away this week! She stayed in our home and took exceptional care of our two dogs. Everything from her punctuality and communication to her attentiveness exceeded our expectations. She sent multiple updates and photos every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were traveling. It was clear from every picture that our pups were happy, comfortable, and completely spoiled with love and attention. Coming home to two relaxed, happy dogs was the best feeling. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and are already looking forward to having Abigail care for our pups again in August. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable!”

“Ruth was wonderful with our 3 Bulldogs...two of them are under 3 year's old and one of them is 13 year's old. Quite the handful but she handled it flawlessly. Ruth did everything we asked of her and more. Ruth we loved you and our dog's adored you. Definitely will be using you again. Thank you so very much!”


About: Hi! I’m Alexandra, a lifelong animal lover and sitter of dogs🐾 I know how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your pets, so I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, attention, and love I would want someone to give my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines—from playful puppies who need lots of attention and potty breaks to adult dogs who are happiest going for a walk and curling up on the couch afterward. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow your normal feeding schedule, walking routine, training cues, crate routine, medication instructions, or any other preferences that help your pet feel comfortable and secure. I work remotely, so your dog will always have a companion home with them to make sure they are getting all the love and attention they need. I’ve always been the go-to person for my family and friends when they need someone they trust to care for their pets, but my experience goes beyond pet sitting. When I lived in Austin, Texas, I spent about a year fostering dogs and puppies, which gave me hands-on experience caring for animals with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. That’s actually how I ended up with my dog Cosmo—I was a proud “foster fail” and couldn’t bring myself to let him go! If I had the space, I probably would have adopted every foster dog and cat that came through my home. These days, pet sitting gives me the perfect excuse to spend time with more animals without constantly bringing another one home. 😂 I genuinely love caring for pets and treat every animal like they’re one of my own. As a pet parent myself, I also know how stressful it can be leaving your dog with someone new. I’m very communicative and will happily send plenty of photos, videos, and updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. 📸💕 Outside of pet sitting, I work professionally as a program and events coordinator, so being organized, dependable, communicative, and attentive to details is a huge part of my everyday life. In my free time, I love spending time with my dogs, baking, doing crafts and nails, traveling, building LEGO sets, and relaxing at home. Whether your pup needs walks, playtime, companionship, feeding, potty breaks, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and completely spoiled. 🐶💗 I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine since I have two dogs of my own. I’m used to planning my day around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, training, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day and allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I’m also very much a homebody, so when I’m not working or running an occasional errand, I’m usually at home with my pets. Adding another furry guest into my routine comes very naturally to me, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule around their normal routine so they feel as comfortable and at home as possible. 🐾💕 I always try to keep each pet’s routine as close to normal as possible, whether I’m caring for them in my home or theirs. I follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, crate routines, playtime, and any other special needs or preferences. I know every pet has their own personality, so I adjust my care depending on whether they love constant attention and cuddles or prefer a little more space and independence. When pets stay in my home, safety is my biggest priority. I have dogs of my own, but I always keep my pets separated from my guests’ pets rather than assuming unfamiliar animals will get along. This allows every pet to have their own comfortable, safe space and gives owners peace of mind. My apartment complex also has a dog park, so if you are comfortable with your dog using it, I’m happy to take them there for some extra exercise and playtime. If dog parks aren’t your preference, that’s completely fine too! I’m more than happy to take them on long walks and strolls around my complex or visit nearby parks instead. I’ll always follow whatever you feel is safest and most appropriate for your dog. I’m very attentive and spend plenty of time checking in, playing, walking, cuddling, and making sure pets are comfortable throughout their stay. I also send regular photos and updates because I know how reassuring it is to see that your pet is happy and doing well while you’re away. 🐾💕
“Rita was outstanding with our two Siberian Huskies! She was on time, dependable, and easy to work with. She was very good with the dogs and left our house in great shape after an overnight sitting. We were very pleased and will book her again!”

“This was our third time using Josh for overnight stays, and he continues to be a really great sitter. His communication is excellent. He provides regular updates and is always very responsive. It's stressful to have your pets care (and your home) in someone else's hands. Josh's communication definitely helps us feel more at ease. We have a fenced yard, but Josh always takes Rider on walks which I really appreciate (as does Rider). Every time we've come home you'd never know he was there. He brings in packages, etc. which again, I really appreciate. We will continue to book Josh without question!”

“Briana took such great care of our dog Lacey! I felt soo at ease being away for the long weekend with the frequent updates and pictures I got. I will 100% be requesting her in the future and would highly recommend to anyone!”

“Mirella did a great job with our dog and cat! She was careful to follow their routines and to keep up with frequent walks and clearing some ice/snow from our walk! Highly recommend”

“Whitney did a great job taking care of my dog & cat for a few days while I was away. She was very responsive and I came home to two happy babies. Highly recommend!”

About: I have loved animals all my life. Since I was a young boy, I was raised around my family’s and my own cats, dogs, and all different kinds of pets. Dogs is my specialty, but I know what it takes to properly take care of and handle various different kinds of pets. I have my own beautiful dog, Ziya who is a 4 year old Belgian Malinois and Akita mix and I have had her since she was 8 weeks old. I personally trained her as well while I was in the military, which also gave me more knowledge on dog training and handling. I’m currently a full time student so I have more than enough time to pet sit. I am only unavailable on Tuesdays because I have my in-person class those days. I have my own home with a pet as well so I know what it takes to take care of the home and pets as well. I am very comfortable with other people pets and rules and boundaries with their animals, as I know ever animals deserves their respect and care they need.
“Deanna was a wonderful sitter for our dusty in our home. We really couldn’t have asked for more. Our dusty was clearly looking for Diana for a few days after we returned home. We will be booking her again multiple times in the future. Thank you so much Deanna for a great job.”

“Arassely was really great! She sent us plenty of updates throughout the week including pictures. It looked like Walter was having an awesome time playing and going for walks.”

“We were leaving our 2 dogs who have anxiety for a vacation and needed someone willing to take the time and patience so they could get to know her. Our one dogs has extremely bad anxiety and takes a lot of time to get used to someone and Nikki went completely above and beyond to make sure our dogs and us were completely comfortable before we went away. Both dogs were taken care of incredibly and we received numerous videos and photos daily and she literally cared for them like they were her own. Nikki will definitely be our sitter anytime we need someone to care for our babies.”

About: Thanks to my flexible schedule, I'm available at any time to care for your pet. Your beloved companion will receive affectionate attention and exceptional care from me. Having raised my own dog from puppyhood through his senior years, I bring valuable experience in puppy training and senior pet care. I currently follow a hybrid work schedule, primarily working from home. This allows me the flexibility to regularly check in on my furry friends, spend quality time cuddling, and take them for walks as needed. The specific days may vary week to week. On days when I work from the office, I am available to visit after 5:30 PM. My community complex has two dog parks which I can use to give off leash exercise. The area is also great for taking a stroll (on leash) and getting those steps in.
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I’ve spent years caring for my own dog, who experiences seizures, and my senior cat, whom I lovingly cared for through his final years. These experiences taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and understanding that every pet has their own needs and personality. My passion for animals has also led me to pursue extensive academic and hands-on experience. I studied veterinary medicine throughout high school, completed an intensive summer program at Cornell’s College of Veterinary Medicine, earned a biology degree, and most recently interned rehabilitating New Jersey wildlife. I’m comfortable reading body language, recognizing concerning symptoms, administering medications, and providing canine and feline first aid and CPR. I’m detail-oriented and attentive to each pet’s needs, while also loving to play with energetic pets and keep them happy, engaged, and exercised! I’m available 7 days a week, day and night, for boarding clients, so your pet will have plenty of company and attention throughout their stay. I keep feeding and bathroom breaks consistent with their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and settled. We’ll typically go for a walk after lunch, with additional activity based on your pet’s needs. Playtime is tailored to their temperament and mood; whether they’re energetic and ready to play, or prefer some quiet cuddles and downtime. My goal is to keep their routine familiar, comfortable, and fun while they’re away from home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have an unfenced yard, so all outdoor time is kept safely on leash. Pets are supervised closely throughout their stay, and I’m happy to use their crate if one is provided and it’s part of their normal routine. I also have a portable pet gate that can be used to safely section off the kitchen or stairs when needed. I want every pet to feel comfortable, secure, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in a safe and attentive environment.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fieldsboro
Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful with our pups. She is a kind person who has a lot of heart when it comes to caring for animals. She was communicative and responsive in keeping us up to date on how her stay with our pups. Liz left our home just like we left it and went above and beyond to do things that we didn’t even ask her to do. We highly recommend Liz and will certainly have her back to care for our pups.

Danielle was perfect for us and for our dog Sid from the moment of contact with her. Thoughtful, responsive, kind and altogether wonderful. She took care of our dog during our wedding weekend so we could focus on having the best weekend ever with no worries. He was there to walk down the aisle and she assisted with that, too! You couldn't ask for anyone better than her! We hope to keep in touch with her and see her again even though we live in another state. My dog loved her, too!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 5,244 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fieldsboro. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Fieldsboro walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Fieldsboro maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fieldsboro choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
