“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”

“Kristen was very attentive and took great care of my cat. With not the best weather while we were gone, she made sure she could still get to him and take care of him while we were away.”
“We’ve been using shannon consistently for the last month and she has been wonderful. We have an anxious big 70lb girl and she absolutely adores her!!! Highly recommend using shannon for your babies!”
“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.”
“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.”

“Susan did an excellent job taking care of my cat and home while I was away for two weeks! She and my cat were fast friends and I returned to a clean home. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: Hi All!! I have personal and professional pet care experience! Not only have I had the pleasure of owning a variety of my own animals (dogs, cats and small animals such as chinchillas) I also have spent many hours volunteering at the humane society preforming all different types of animal care for whatever was assigned to me! I love learning and expanding my knowledge of animals regarding different behavior types based on breeds and I think working with Rover will provide me a fun experience and help me do that! My availability is semi-flexible depending on the location of your home, as I do work Mon-Friday at Backus Hospital. In my own personal free time, I enjoy staying active and traveling with my friends, but I also enjoy staying in with a glass of wine and a good book! I currently work full time at Backus Hospital, do depending on location of your home, I could provide a mid day potty break! Unfortunately, anything outside of the Norwich area, makes mid day check ins challenging. I have one chunky orange cat named Murphy! He roams the house freely but is mostly found on the back of the couch! I have a lot of experience with free roaming pets, crated dogs, and other small caged animals and have the space to house them!
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’ve had large breed dogs since I was a child. I currently own a German shepherd. have experience with cats and ferrets as well. My home is very clean and organized. Your pet will be super safe and loved I work part time early mornings. Your baby will be cared for and walked before and after my 4 hour shift. I’m free everyday by noon I have a big yard surrounded by hedges. I am very careful and would never endanger your pet because mine is like my child. I have been trained to the De-escalate situations.
“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.”
“Tina is a wonderful pet sitter who took excellent care of my diabetic cat Buddy! Right off the bat when I first met Tina I got an excellent first impression. She is very warm and friendly and was great with Buddy! When I came home after my week away Buddy was relaxed and happy.”
“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!”
“Savannah could not be more responsible — she was communicative, self-starting, intuitive, caring, neat/clean and smart. I often remarked to her (during the 6 weeks she cared for our cat and home) that she seemed unflappable — No situation was an issue (and the home had a couple situations that could have been) Highest recommend for this Uber responsible individual.”
“Alyssa did a great job of taking care of our two cats. She made sure to put food and water down for them. and clean out the litter boxes. I hope to use her again on our next trip.”
