“Christina is the GOAT! She took such good care of our two kitties, on of which was "high needs" (Kidney disease). It made our time away much more relaxed, knowing Christina was watching over our fur babies. Highly recommend!”
“Veronica was excellent (for the second time!) She communicates quickly and was even able to accommodate a last minute time change due to a work schedule change which was much appreciated! She is responsible and cares for both of my doggies very well and follows all doggie instructions. Would definitely recommend Veronica for your doggies :)”
“Thank you, Jillian, for always taking such great care of Mellow! We truly appreciate you being such an amazing caretaker. You're our go-to sitter for sure!”
“Josh was great - we were away for the day and came home to our doggos content and happy! He took good care of them in the heat - we are glad he paid such good attention to what they needed. Thank you!!”
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals big and small furry or reptilian! I’m comfortable with different energy levels and sizes and willing to put in the work to get to know your pet and make sure they are comfortable! I work from home with very flexible hours so I can accommodate many different schedules during business hours and throughout the rest of the day I live in an apartment so will not be caring for pets in my home, but I am very careful and thorough with all pet care instructions.
About: — First time booking with me? Use this code for $20 off your first appointment! LEANDW09173 — Being raised with dogs, cats, and other various kinds of animals since I was 6 years old, I’m not a stranger to small (or even big!) feet following me around the house. From love and snuggles after a long day, to laughing at zoomie episodes, my family has built our lives around our animals. And I would love to add your pet into my happy story. Rest assured, you can leave your fur-baby with me for peace of mind, and can expect them to be loved, cared for, snuggled, and protected as you would do. I have experience with energetic, senior, and pups with allergies and/or meds. I start grad school in the fall, so I have ample free time 5-6 days a week to provide attention and care for your furbaby. I am an avid communicator and will be making sure I follow all necessary instructions left by you (feeding needs, medical needs, etc.). If I’m not sure on something, I’ll always communicate to make sure to provide the best service to your and your baby.

About: I have been an owner of my dog, Scout for 13 years. Over those 13 years, I have learned how to care for animals. I have volunteered for the humane society for the past 5 years as well! I am currently working during the mornings of each weekend so I am pretty flexible during the weekdays. I can care for your pet during any hour of the day during the week! I feed, walk, and shower my dog with attention each day. I will treat your pet the same way mine would want to be treated.
“Meira was a wonderful sitter! She sent tons of videos and photos during each visit and was very attentive to my cat’s needs. My cat is usually slow to warm up, but Meira was able to pet her and play with her every time. She’s very professional. I would highly recommend her.”
About: We’ve owned many dogs growing and are super excited for the opportunity to be around animals while living in a new state. We've house sat for neighbors, friends and family for a number of years so please take a look at our testimonials. We both have very flexible schedules this summer! Matthew is a grad student and Mary Beth works from home in finance, so we're both available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. We love walking and biking around the West End of Hartford, but we do have cars for extra flexibility. Your pet's safety and comfort are our top priorities. When house sitting, we follow your routine closely to keep things familiar and stress-free for your pet. We’re respectful of your home and aim to leave it just as we found it—if not better. For dog walking, we use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid unsafe areas, and always keep a close eye on your dog’s comfort and energy level. During doggy daycare, your pet will have a calm, supervised environment with lots of attention, play, and breaks as needed. We're happy to accommodate special needs, medications, or quirks—just let us know!
About: I’ve taken care of pets for my co-workers and friends for the past several years while they traveled out of town for an extended amount of time. I make sure to check-in every day, feed them, and make sure they get enough attention. I am raising money for marathons I have signed up for over the next year. I’m preparing to run the Marine Corps Marathon and aim to run the Boston Marathon. I usually work evenings from 3-11pm Wednesdays through Sundays and I will have time to take care of your pet in the mornings before I get ready for work. When I am in charge of your pet, I make sure sure they have the food the need to remain healthy, give them a walk when they need it, and provide them with enough attention.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I always aim to keep their routine consistent and stress-free while you’re away. I make sure your dog feels safe, exercised, and well-loved. Pet care fits into my routine—I work full time during the week, but I’m available for walks and check-ins in the mornings and evenings. I enjoy starting and ending my day with some time outside and love spending that time with dogs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I focus on keeping things consistent and tailored to each pet’s needs. I stick to their usual routines—mealtimes, walks, play, and any special care. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and make sure pets feel comfortable and safe in their environment. If they’re staying with me, I give them a quiet, clean space to relax, and they get plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life; my first was a black lab, and I’ve been hooked ever since. I’ve helped train, walk, and care for our family’s three dogs, who are truly my world. I’m willing to go the extra mile for your dog(s), whether it’s playing, going to the dog park, or just giving them love 🐶❤️ I just completed my last internship at law school and now have a very flexible schedule that will allow me to petsit full time for the summer and fall of this year. I’m available during the week and on weekends! In my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved by creating a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and routine. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their pet’s normal schedule and care instructions, keeping things consistent to help them feel at ease. Doesn’t matter if it’s feeding, walking, cleaning up, or just giving them attention: I treat every pet like my own.

“Frank has owned a dog for 13 years. He gives her lots of attention and affection. He walks, feeds, and plays with her. He will treat other pets as if they were his own. He's responsible, honest, and hardworking. He attends college, where he is on the Dean's List. I highly recommend Frank as a Rover caregiver.”

Matthew W.
“Winston’s Official Review: 13/10, Would Stay Again 🐾🐾 Okay, let’s just say it: Matthew and Mary Beth are total dog whisperers. I dropped off Winston, and five minutes later he had already claimed their hearts and probably their couch. When I picked him up, he looked at me like, “Oh… you’re back? Already??” They took such amazing care of him—he went on adventures (aka walks), played like a wild puppy (he’s 7, but don’t tell him that), and probably auditioned for “World’s Most Spoiled Dog.” He came home happy, tired, and with that goofy smile he gets after living his best life. I got plenty of updates, pics of him mid-zoomie, and even one where I’m pretty sure he was helping Matthew do taxes (unclear, but impressive). If your dog wants a mini-vacation with the coolest humans around, Matthew and Mary Beth are it. Winston’s already packing his bag for next time—stuffed squirrel, squeaky hot dog, the works.”
Steffen B.
“Whenever I would go out of town, I always asked Steffen to stay with my cat because I knew he would care for him just as much as I do. He’s not only incredibly trustworthy, but also one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. Steffen always goes above and beyond for others, and I’ve seen firsthand how thoughtful and attentive he is with animals. I had total peace of mind knowing my cat was in such good hands.”
Brigid S.
“She is super friendly and love dogs more than anyone I have ever met. She is very communicative and loves meeting new people and dogs! She is a proud dog owner and I have trusted her in the past with my two dogs and have had nothing but good things to say about her.”
Alyanna G.
“Alyanna is trustworthy, reliable, and easy to get along with. She has taken care of my cat numerous times, and everything has gone very smoothly. She also clearly cares about animals, and I know that she gives my cat a lot of attention and love when she’s around. Alyanna is my first choice when I need a pet sitter! I highly recommend her.”
Frog Hollow pet parents share their Rover experiences
We highly recommend Madison. She is reliable, communicative and just so easy to work with. Our dog and cat both have some additional needs (separation anxiety, medicated food, etc) and she did a great job understanding them and keeping them calm, safe and happy.
Leah did a wonderful job with Sachi! She is prompt, responsive, and obviously cares a lot about animals. The regular updates and photos eased my worries about being away from my senior girl. I came home to a calm and content cat - and a nice clean litterbox! I would happily book with Leah again, and I hope I get the opportunity to!
Another wonderful visit with Marissa! She took great care of my dog, Goose, and communicated well through updates and pictures. Goose has a new medication since the last time she watched him, and she communicated about when it was administered. Finally, she went above and beyond to make Goose comfortable when there were fireworks and loud noises in the neighborhood. Appreciated her!
This was the first time that Talia has sat for us and we were pleased with the experience. She was punctual each day and did everything we asked of her. Julie is very shy, but she did greet Talia each day and seemed OK in the pictures Talia sent us, which was very reassuring to us. We also appreciated the daily updates from Talia.
Sarah was INCREDIBLE! We got daily updates, an amazing blog post, and SO MANY PHOTOS. Raimi was not just cared for, she was loved. Sarah is very communicative and kept us updated about the time of her visits at all times. I know Sarah will be our go to for whenever we need to leave Raimi (as long as she’s available, of course).
