“Kourtney was great. She took excellent care of our to cats while we were away for 10 days. She was very communicative and sent us photos every day. She even noticed some water in our basement after a thunderstorm that rolled through and let us know about it. It was really nice to not have to worry about the cats or bother family members to take care of them while we were away. Will definitely use her again”


“Patricia was amazing! Super easy and flexible to work with, from a met and greet ahead of time to daily photos and communications, I could tell my ‘fleet of felines’ were in good hands. She was professional, kind, and attentive - I honestly could not have asked for more. Simply outstanding!”


“Rebekah is just fantastic! She is so lovely and wants the best for your animals while you’re gone. She went out of her way to pay close attention to them and ensure they felt like they were in their usual routines! I really appreciated everything she did! Thank you again you are one of the best!”


“Britney was a great companion to our girls! She sent updates and pictures with each visit and even went above and beyond and cleaned up the kitties water fountain and scooped their boxes. Easy going and kind, 10/10 recommend. :)”


About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends, neighbors and family members since I was 10. I have potty trained and taught basic commands to my dogs, fed and cared for cats, guinea pigs and ball pythons. Pets are part of the family and should get high quality care regardless of their owners scheduling requirements. I'm working part time over the summer and looking to have pets to care for in my spare time. My availability is pretty open with the exception of 9am to 12pm Monday through Thursday in July. I would love to play with your pets, bring them for walks, provide food, water, love and attention. I genuinely care for all animals and would love to get to spend time with your pet.

“Olivia is amazing! Communicated constantly, went above and beyond for our geriatric feline (thanks for raising that bar on us!) and took great care of the invisible cat brothers. It was a huge relief knowing she was taking care of our feline overlords over the holiday, no matter the weather.”


“Bekka was amazing! She's very detail-oriented and adapted to the quirks of my two cats' quickly. She was a lifesaver over a pretty long stretch over the holidays and took fantastic care of them. I came home to two happy cats. (She's also awesome at taking cat pictures and the updates were perfect.) Thank you so much Bekka! :)”


“Orion and Alex were very kind and professional when I reached out about drop-in visits with Collins. I had never worked with a pet sitter before, and they were very gracious about all of my questions and the detailed instructions I left. Orion provided updates and pictures for me each time he and Alex visited my apartment, and they took the time to try and socialize with my sweet, yet somewhat, standoffish cat. I definitely plan to book time with Orion and Alex again!”


“Ashley is so amazing! She is great with sending pictures and updates on my cats and she takes the time to give them love and attention, which is much appreciated while I’m away! Highly recommend”


About: I've had dogs throughout my adult life and regularly care for a friend's three cats, so I'm no stranger to a variety of pet personalities! While I’m currently pet-free, I’d love the opportunity to care for yours. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always follow your instructions closely to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I exclusively house sit in your home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings. Whether your pet enjoys long walks or prefers lounging on the couch all day, I’m happy to match their energy. I have a special place in my heart for senior pets and bring a calm, patient presence to ensure they get the gentle care they need. I’m likely the best fit for your weekend getaways, as I work a 9–5 job outside the home on weekdays. That said, if your pet is comfortable being alone during the day — or if you're located near my workplace in Willimantic — I would be able to swing by for lunch-time drop-ins. Outside of work hours, you can count on me to spend plenty of quality time at home with your pet. I understand how important it is for your pet to receive the same level of care they get from you. I take note of all the details you share — from feeding routines and approved treats to medication schedules and special instructions. I believe this: your pets, your home, your rules. During our initial meet-and-greet, I’ll likely ask plenty of questions to make sure I have everything I need to provide the best care possible.


“My cat Watson is a shy kitty and her first instinct to strangers is always hiding. Brittany was very patient with her and got Watson to warm up to her : ) Brittany is awesome and I very much appreciated her! Will definitely book her again next time when I'm out of town.”


“Natalie was so reliable and we felt that our fur baby and home were both very well cared for. She picks up on all care instructions quickly, tailored check-ins to our preferences, and went above and beyond. We will definitely book with her again.”


“Molly was fabulous while watching our 3 cats for a week in our home! She was very attentive to their quirky needs and individual personalities. She was very patient while waiting out their shy, adjustment period. She administered meds to 2 of the 3, twice daily, which sometimes isn’t a smooth process! Molly was efficient and resourceful when dealing with our “disappearing” older female who re-surfaced after Molly’s efforts! She followed our instructions and reached out very responsibly when she had questions or concerns. We returned to a perfectly clean, fresh smelling home and 3 very content felines! We very much appreciated her daily updates with pictures! Will definitely hire her again for our next trip! Sincerely, David and Nora”


“We were both new to Rover but Heather did a great job working with me and accommodating my changing schedule. The kitties are happy to see me back home again but ai know they were well taken care of. Will absolutely book again!”


About: I'm very good at leading dogs on walks and getting them to like me as well. It's important to have a balance in that sense. I can walk dogs or feed pets before and after work. I usually work 7-3 Monday through Friday at EB with weekends off for fun walks and hanging out. I feed pets, get them water, walk dogs on a leash and pick up after the dogs followed by a nice pet and maybe a little treat :)

About: I have taken care of family and friend’s dogs for the past 6 years, and I currently am working at a vet hospital and have been in the field for a year in September. Before that I was working at a kennel, as an assistant. I have had a lot of experience with all different types of animals and know how to handle them. I work at a local vet. I am available when needed and if I have work, I can come in during my lunch, before, and after work! I have extra leashes, treats, and toys available that can be brought anywhere I am needed. I have an electric fence at my house, so preferably it would be easier to go to someone else’s home to care for their pets. I will accommodate to the owners needs!

“Rebecca did a wonderful job! Always thoughtful in her daily text updates; great photos letting us see how our pets were doing; and always timely/complete in her work. You can tell that she genuinely cares. We were 100% satisfied and highly recommend her!”


“Lauren was really nice and communicative while watching my 2 cats! She was able to give my kitty his pills while I was gone and checked in and sent photos every time she stopped by. She also answered within a week of when I needed a sitter! Definitely would recommend booking with Lauren :)”


“Nikki was an absolute angel with my two cats when I had to leave for the weekend at the last minute. I contacted her late Thursday night and she was here bonding with my cats at 12pm the next day! She sent me probably 15 pictures over the two days of them hanging out and snuggling which I SO appreciated. There could not have been a kinder or better pet sitter to ask for :)”

He is always spends quality time with them when he is watching them, plays with them, walks them, and sends a lot of great photos so we know they’re doing ok! My dog always gets extremely excited to see him and I would highly recommend him for watching your pets!”


Patrice C.
“To Whom This May Concern, I am writing this letter on behalf of my sister Patrice Carrignan in regards to her potential employment with rover. I would like to offer my enthusiastic recommendation for Patrice as I believe she would be an asset and responsible team member for your agency. Throughout her life I have watched her grow within each work environment as a reliable and professional employee. Animals have always been a passion for Patrice growing up as she has had her own Dogs that she has raised and taken great care of. Her personality is bubbly, friendly and loving to everyone around her. The amount of happiness I see within her while working with at the animal shelter shows her compassion to help within this field. I trust her to care for my pets and she would be a great choice to care for yours to.”
