“Our Roo had a wonderful time. We picked him up and he was a very happy and tired boy. Suzanne has a great fenced back yard that is perfect for dogs. She’s very responsive and we so appreciated her taking Roo on fairly short notice. Thank you Suzanne.”
“Isabelle and Zachary took our dog Shea. I’m very short notice because we had to attend a funeral. She felt very welcome and went on a nice long walk with Isabelle and the other dogs. She seemed to settle in right away with everything and felt very comfortable. I was a bit late in returning from the funeral and the they were very gracious about it. We will be sure to trust Shea here when we return to this area. Awesome experience!”
“Karen was a great dog sitter for our little guy. She sent photo updates, was kind, & we knew our dog was in good hands. We would definitely book with Karen again. Thank you.”
“Thankful that Nala was able to watch my pup for a short time on short notice. Since it was a short time, I didn't get updates but Nala took my pup out for a short walk and gave me a good summary on pick up.”
“Had to find a sitter for our pup on last minute and Erica gladly accepted our request! The family was great, our puppy sure had tons of fun hanging out with them. They sent pictures and updates of how it was going, Willow slept the whole ride home and surely had an exciting day. Would definitely use them again and recommend booking them! ♥️”

About: My husband and I love dogs! We both work from home and love the extra company. We own 2 small dogs and 2 cats (who always stay downstairs). We live in a deeply wooded area so there is lots of area for a dog to play without the worry of traffic nearby. We do have an outdoor kennel if needed. Finally, we go to the dog park just about every day that is 1/2 mile from our house. We have watched 100s of dogs of all kinds as a foster rescue provider. We both work from home and are available at all hours. The only time we really go out is to take dogs for a hike. We have a spaciousness and open floor home. We have experience with all personality's and take their safety very seriously. We always leash dogs that we dont know because we want them to be safe.

“Lourdes “Luli” was a stellar and responsive caretaker of my 8 mo, high-energy Australian Shepherd puppy. I was a bit nervous to be her first Rover client, but felt immediate comfort on the meet and greet. She and her delightful, well-behaved pup, Tito, were exemplary hosts. She took all my concerns in stride and made sure that my puppy had a safe, enriching and engaging experience. She sent lots of photos documenting his play and nap time with his new buddy. Luli was flexible about the drop off when my schedule unexpectedly changed and was always quick to return texts. My dog came back happy and relaxed and literally pulled me to her doorway each day of our stay. Her home was immaculate and puppy safe, with a small secure, enclosed yard for play. I have nothing but the highest regard for Luli, and her professionalism and warmth towards both me and my dog! She clearly is a dog whisperer and my dog, very attached to us, but eager to be left with Luli, confirms this. I have no reservations about emphatically recommending her!”
“I came into the area for the day and Elizabeth was so wonderful to watch my dog Daisy. She has such a lovely home and family. I would absolutely 💯% recommend Elizabeth. Daisy had a great day in her care!”
“Molly has severe separation anxiety and can’t be left alone, which limits what we can do during the week. We have been looking for someone to watch her regularly for church on Sundays though and I’m so glad we found Madelyn! We drop Molly off in the morning and pick her up a few hours later and we know she’s in good hands. Madelyn provides prompt communication and takes good care of our girl!”
About: I’ve taken care of family friends and neighbors dogs and cats for over 10 years. Love being able to spend time with them and the opportunity to see them happy. I currently work remote so have time during the day and nights to take care of all animals. Usually busy from noon to four to try and enjoy the back half of a ski day I enjoy taking dogs for walks or playing fetch. I am a very energetic person and feel well suited for any environment with all kinds of pets
“Our labradoodle Bella loved spending the day with Bethany, her adorable son, and Ferbie! Bethany was easy to communicate with and kept me updated that Bella was having a great day! We will definitely be using her for all our doggy daycare needs! ♥️”

Bridget S.
“My dog loves going to Bridget’s house! She loves being off leash and relaxing or rolling around on the big green lawn and she definitely prefers the Stonington water more than the tap at my Colchester home, plus there’s no shortage of treats. I know my dog is happy, loved, and well cared for when she’s there. Thanks Bridget!”

“Eva took care of my older dog Nala who had also had ACL surgery. She did a wonderful attentive job. I would recommend her for a dog that has any medical issues. Because she is very caring I would also recommend her for any healthy dog, of course”
Ryan R.
“Ryan is a very caring, loving pet owner himself. I have no doubt in my mind that he’d care for your pet(s) as if they were his own. He is kind, trustworthy and responsible.”
Jessica D.Star Sitter
“Took Izzy to the park and got her all tired out for me! Very accommodating and responsive. Great experience, will definitely have her dog sit again.”
Jennifer & Adam S.
“Jen and Adam watched my 7 year old female collie named Callie. Callie is about 75 lbs, very stubborn, shy, and deaf so it’s not easy just dropping her off anywhere! Jen and Adam’s house was a good fit for Callie in two different ways, one being they have a back door that is ground level with the house so Callie wouldn’t have to struggle with stairs, and second being they live in an area that isn’t near many other house which was reassuring seeing that Callie doesn’t always get along with other dogs and people on walks. Overall Jen and Adam fed and walked Callie everyday she was there and I didn’t have to worry about her at all, she also was able to play with their two very friendly dogs as well which was fun. A very loving home to send your pet to, would definitely recommend!”
