“Olivia was a stellar dog sitter! My pup King loved her and she was so respectful of our home. She reported updates to us one to two times a day which was truly appreciated while we were away. We definitely will be booking with her again soon!”

Immediately I knew we were in good hands. She was so good at communicating with us and updating us to let us know how she and our pup were doing. On the day of she brought our dog to the ceremony so we could take pictures with him and then brought him home for us. We were so happy to know our baby was in good hands!”

“I can’t thank Alyssa enough for taking excellent care of our baby. It was the first time we used Rover or had someone stay at the house. Alyssa stayed in touch and sent videos and pictures so we could be rest assured things were going great while we were away. She is so professional and made this experience amazing for all of us. The most important part was knowing our dog was in good hands and was happy and comfortable. We will definitely be using Alyssa again next time we need a sitter. We can’t thank her enough!!!!”


“Super sweet and took care of my fur baby on a last min notice. We had a work trip to Miami pop up and the very next day she was here to help us with Marley. We’re so thankful for her professionalism and prompt reply to our request for a sitter. Extenllent communication and great with Marley. We would most definitely book with Sophia again!!! ???”


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 have had pets ever since I can remember. Growing up, I had dogs, but I have also had birds, a bunny, hamsters, a snake, and many fish so animals have always been a part of my life. I pet sit frequently for friends, family, and neighbors when they are away. I, myself, have one dog (Mr. Beans - border collie/chocolate lab mix) and one cat (Moose - maine coon mix) at home. I work full time in childcare. I typically work Monday - Friday from 6:30am to 2:30pm. Just send me a message and I’m sure we can work something out! I have a fenced in back yard that my dog enjoys running around and playing in. While pet sitting at your house, I will follow any rules that you have for your pets to make sure they have a stress free environment and stick to their routine.

“Brien took my request to housesit my 2 dogs at the last minute when my previous boarder cancelled. He took great care of my babies & was fantastic with communication & pictures while I was away. Additionally, he was very accommodating when my cleaners came while he was there. I'd definitely hire Brien again!”


“Detail oriented, thorough, kind, excellent planning and foresight, just awesome! This was my first Rover experience at the time of my booking I had an elderly dog and three cats, we had not gone on vacation in years due to our dog having arthritis and other health issues, but we had gotten her to a point where she was doing really well and we felt we could leave her with someone. I needed someone who could administer meds, live at the house and be otherwise highly attentive to her needs and our cats. I had about given up on some of the people I’d spoken with on Rover, I just didn’t feel comfortable with anyone. Enter Jillian. In our initial texts I got a very positive vibe and immediately liked her. We hadn’t even met yet but I could tell she was a gem. When she came to the house to meet our pets she was aces and again I instinctively knew she was going to be great. Since our meeting our dog very suddenly passed away and when I let Jillian know her response was compassionate and she gave me some time to figure out what we would do. When we spoke again we decided on two visits a day for the cats and she sprang into action to adjust our booking. Jillian was every bit as great as I knew she would be and even surpassed my expectations. This woman is thorough, she thinks ahead, she looks to solve issues even before they happen. We had a snow storm while we were gone and she made sure she got to the house. We received daily photos of all of the cats, who by the way hide from strangers all the time, but not Jillian! I think she’s a cat whisperer of some sort. She was on time for her visits, left the place clean, took her shoes off to walk around the house, so thoughtful!! On prior vacations when I’ve left my pets I always notice they’re a little ‘off’ when I return, not with Jillian. They were very much themselves which speaks volumes. I highly highly highly recommend her. We are already booking another trip because this was the first time in years that I really relaxed and didn’t feel any worry about the pets.”


About: I have years of experience with dogs of all ages, including seniors. I’m dependable, gentle, and treat every pet with the same love as my own. Pet care is part of my daily routine, including walks, playtime, and attention to each dog’s needs. I am experienced in safely administering medication when needed. I ensure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I create a safe, calm, and clean environment in both my home and clients’. I follow all instructions carefully to ensure pets feel secure and well cared for.

“Joanna and her daughter were wonderful with our pups while we were gone!! Joanna was very responsive and attentive to our requests. We were grateful they showed our dogs lots of love and will definitely be reaching out to them again! Thank you, Joanna!”


“Jordyn was super accommodating and did a last minute booking. She was incredible with our puppy, Maple. Maple adored Jordan and so did we! She kept us updated with photos and took great care of our girl. Would definitely hire again!”

Jennifer K.
“I have used Jennifer on several occasions over many years to cat sit for my beloved cat Penelope. Jennifer is not only trustworthy and reliable but is also one of the most compassionate young woman I have the pleasure of knowing. I never worry when I am away because I know Jen will take the utmost care of my girl and my girl absolutely loves Jen. Jen, while watching Penelope, often updated me with messages as to how Penelope was doing and often sent me pics of Penelope sleeping on her lap. I thoroughly trust Jen and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

Over 72 pet parents in Glastonbury have booked house sitting
Glastonbury pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time using Rover. I’ve always had family, friends or neighbors able to watch my two cats. Two of the of the ones who were available the most moved and I just needed to find someone I could rely on and where I didn’t need to stress about the care. I scoured Rover and the reviews and ended up meeting with Patricia for a meet and greet before I decided to follow through with this. ( it wasn’t easy at all!) Patricia was punctual, professional at ease with both cats and comfortable with some of the needs of my boy cat. I decided to give it a go as it was only one overnight 24 hr trip. She texted with adorable pictures and updates throughout which I really appreciated. She followed every one of my instructions and truly left my home as I left it (actually better, she emptied the garbage and stripped the linens off the bed) I’m really glad I took the plunge and went with Patricia. I would absolutely recommend and have her again.
