“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”


“Orion an Alex were great. Visit snapshots told a happy story for my pets, who appeared from their hide places (score!), and they definitely know elder pet care. We’ll be calling her again!”


“Steve goes above and beyond the normal cat care tasks. He is always on time, does a thorough job and provides excellent feedback giving us peace of mind while we are away. He even brought along a laser pointer to engage them in playtime!”


“I am so so happy we found Kristen on Rover! This was our first trip traveling without our pup, and after meeting Kristen, we felt so confident that our pets would be well loved and attended to. She gave prompt updates after her visits with our pup "smiling" in every picture- clearly having a blast! We were so impressed she packed so much into a half hour- walks, fetch, food and potty break. She also went above and beyond caring for our cranky elderly cat. Its a relief to have someone we trust locally to care for our pets as we would, giving us peace of mind to travel. We will 100% be working with Kristen again and highly recommend her!”


“Bekka watched my two cats while I was away. One of my cats has some separation anxiety, but thanks to Bekka when I returned he seemed such calmer and happier than he usually does when I go away. She took great care of both cats. I highly recommend Bekka as a pet sitter!”


“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.”


“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”



“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.”


“Ashley was amazing and took the best care of our fur baby! Our kitty was comfortable with her right from the get go. She sent us video and photo check ins everyday that put our minds at ease while we were away. We really felt Huey was in the best hands.”


About: I’ve lived with animals all my life and have experience with several different species, including dogs, cats, birds, and rodents. I have been responsible for my own pets since a young age and am familiar with general care, as well as administering oral and topical medications. I am a lover of all animals and am not easily frightened by them. Neighbors, friends, and family members typically turn to me if they need pet care for a trip. I am working part-time and attending college part-time, so there’s plenty of free spots in my schedule to turn my attention to pet care! I am quite flexible although my availability may change from week to week, so be sure to take a look at my I am confident but gentle when working with pets and I would never do a job I didn’t feel comfortable with. Safety for both me and the pet is my top priority! If I agree to any service you are requesting, you can know that I feel 100% confident I can do the job well.

“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 have may years of experience caring for dogs. During each visit, each dog will receive some play time and a walk. I will be able to care for senior dogs with ease. Currently, I work part time, so I have lots of time to give each pet the time that is required to keep them happy and safe. While visiting with each pet, I will make sure that the pet has food, water, and play time. I will also make sure that their house is safe until their person comes home.

About: I have a large yard fully fenced in and a large home for your dog to hang out in! I have two rescue dogs that are like my children who love to play with new doggie friends! I love to play with them in the backyard and give them all the snuggles. I grew up with dogs and even as a child I walked dogs to earn extra money, I will treat your dogs like my own because they too are part of the family and deserve to be treated as so. From over night care or walking your doggies or just check ups your pup(s) they will have the best time with my and my babies! Can’t wait to care for a special part of your family!

About: I have over 25 years of pet care experience with my own pets, and I walk dogs at the Humane Society on Saturdays & was trained by their incredible staff in basic dog training techniques in 2024. In addition to dogs & cats, I have owned and cared for guinea pigs, a chinchilla, rabbits, chickens, chameleon, and iguana! I would love to care for your pet(s) and help give you some peace of mind while you're away. I would love to walk your dog(s), and/or care for your pet(s), on Mon, Tues, Weds, Thurs, Fri & Sun anytime between 6:00 am- 7:30 am, as well as between 3:30 pm - 8:00 pm. I am willing to travel to the following towns: Lebanon, Colchester, Waterford, New London, Norwich, Bozrah, Colombia, Windham, Franklin, Salem, Lisbon, Montville, and other surrounding Towns (depending on mileage). I am also available Saturday mornings when booked in advance. I care for my two cats at home, they are rescue and special needs. I administer medications, food, ensure they are groomed appropriately to avoid any matting, and spend lots of fun play time with them! I make sure they get proper nutrition and stimulation throughout the day. We love our cats! I will treat your animals as if they are my own, because each little animal being deserves specialized care & attention, just like their human counterparts!

“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!”


“Meg was great! We had previously booked with her before and didn’t hesitate to do so again. She’s very attentive with our dog and gives great updates on her visits. You won’t find anyone better in the area for taking care of your pup.”
