“We feel so lucky to have found David; truly, we only wish that we had found him sooner! He is reliable, considerate, and, most importantly, our dog LOVES him. Our dog is older, with some medical issues, and can be standoffish to new people but David won him over almost immediately. We always have complete confidence and peace of mind that our dog is well cared for.”
“Steph is an INCREDIBLE dog sitter! She truly went above and beyond to make sure my new puppy had an amazing first week adjusting to his new routine. She was so patient with Ozzy and Ozzy very clearly loved his time with Steph. Steph even gave me training tips and provided very detailed updates after each visit- pictures and videos included! She understands dogs on a deep level and knows how to connect with them instantly. She also made sure my apartment was left even better than she found it and even contacted me when she realized there was a leak in my apartment! She went above the normal expectations of a dog sitter, and I feel so lucky to have found her. I highly recommend Steph for all your dog sitting needs!”
“Daniela was so patient with our dog, who doesn’t take well to strangers at first. She kept me updated with her drop in and even when I said don’t worry and leave bc our dog wouldn’t go near her, she didn’t give up and tort was able to warm up!! So grateful for her and her abilities!”
“Briana was amazing! She kept us thoroughly informed about our cat during each visit and was able to add additional visits last minute through the app. She sent the most adorable photos as well and we appreciate the conscientiousness that she showed while taking care of her.”
“Hanaya was so great with our mini goldendoodle. she was available last minute and really helped us in a crush. Hanaya is very reliable and responsive, and I would definitely use her again!”
About: I'm from Colombia, and there I had different pets that my family and I rescued through the course of 12 years, birds, parrots, iguanas, cats, dogs. I moved in 2018 to the US., lived basically a year in a pet free environment and couldn't make it longer like that. Because of that, my husband and I went to Colombia, got my two dogs that were with my family, Arya & Kathy (AKA the girls) and brought them with us to the US. And they come with us everywhere that they are allowed! Teaching things to the girls, playing with them, going for walks (and spoiling them a little) is a big part of our lives, and I can surely say that your pet would love being with us because he/she/they would certainly feel part of our family! <3 I'm currently a full time photographer, I edit and do social media management from home, so I'm basically around most of the time, if I have to go out for a shoot it won't be longer than 3 hours, and if it is a big event - it would more likely to be at night or the weekend when my husband is home. He works full time, some days at home, some others at the lab. We live in an apartment and have a huge terrace, there we have a pee-potty station for the girls for when it's too cold or rainy and it's hard to go for a walk! - I am a morning rooster, get up at 5 am, let the girls out or take them out for a walk around our building, offer them breakfast and with hubby start getting ready for work. I stay home and take them out every 3 hours, then a longer walk at noon before lunch and another long walk when hubby comes back from work around 6pm, then we offer the girls dinner. During the day, I need to take short breaks for my eyes and hands, and I use that time to decompress playing with the girls (+ your fur baby), and after our dinner and chatting about our day we all cuddle on the couch or play with the craziest squeaky toys haha! We have a big dog safe terrace, and two fur babies to keep your dog(s) company when they board with us! We don't really crate the girls, instead we have a metallic foldable gate that we set when we both are out so they don't feel the anxiety of been close to the door, but instead they get to be on their space with beds, bowls, & the living room (couch and puff chair) for them to hangout! When I'm home (the 80% of the time) they can walk around the whole apartment, join me on the couch or my office set up or just chill on their beds. We also have a dog spa in our building that allow us to shower, dry and groom them easier and faster in case your baby is in need of one! When dog sitting, I'll make sure to follow your instructions and to help your baby not feel alone!
“Mike did an excellent job of caring for my Elizabeth! He even washed out her little food bowls and gave her catnip! I highly recommend Mike! He's caring, responsible and goes the extra mile! Thanks for doing such a great job!”

“Alexis was really easy to work with - she came over in advance of my trip to meet my cat and understand any special needs he has. She also sent a picture everyday, which helped me feel more at ease while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone with a cat.”
“Alyssa was great! My kitties were so happy in her care. She is super reliable and dependable! Will definitely have Alyssa watch my cats again! Thank you Alyssa!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, from hamsters to rabbits to cats and dogs! I’ve always been an animal lover who wants to keep your pet safe while you’re away. Comfortable with big and small dogs with any energy level! I can teach basic tricks but willing to try anything with your doggo! I work full time but am nearly fully remote (1-2 days in office but flexible). I’m able to take breaks for walks or cuddles at any time ! I’ll follow your direction on your pets safety but I have a pet friendly apartment with a dog run and wash station if they are staying with me!
“Kenisha was amazing! I was traveling overseas for 11 nights and needed someone to come in to check on my 3 cats, feed them and clean up after them. She was so sweet and caring and my cats were happy. Even my extremely shy one came out and let her scratch her head. I highly recommend hiring this beautiful soul to take care of your pets.”
“Madison did a great job caring for my cat Penny! She watched her over the course of a week and was extremely communicative and kind. She took the time to play and provide companionship for Penny, and was very reliable. I trust her completely with my home and my girl! Will definitely rebook Madison in the future!”
About: I have grown up with dogs in the family and am a volunteer at the local dog shelter in Stamford's Lucky Dog Refuge. I don't have pets of my own currently so that's why I volunteer and am on Rover so I can care for your pets like my own :) I do have a demanding full time job so I am available in the evenings as well as weekends to get my dose of playing and caring for your pets! Depending on proximity, if you are in the Old Greenwich area I may be available during the day. Great reason to get out of my home office - it's a win-win. In your home, I will care for your pet based on your specific needs and requirements outside of standard walking, feeding, watering and play time.

maria alexandra v.
“I do not think it is an exaggeration to say that Maria loves dogs more than kiddos - and this is a woman who has been hailed as a phenomenal nanny by several families over the last several years. Many people will ask to pet new dogs that they meet, but Maria truly falls in love with every single one. In fact this is true of all animals, but she does have a special place in her heart for doggos. I probably do not have space to write all the stories I could about this part of her life, but here are a few. In addition to the dogs she has cared for while nannying (5 in total), she has had no less than 4 dogs of her own. She has raised newborn puppies, and she has rescued dogs (and cats) that she found abandoned in the street, or that were left by families that could no longer care for them. In fact just the other day she turned the car around when she believed she saw a dog being tied to a pole on the side of the road, but thankfully the owner was only taking a rest and did stay with the animal the entire time. Maria is from Colombia, which has a complicated dog culture. There is an abundance of dogs throughout the country, but they are not always well cared for, and many end up as strays. I personally witnessed her nurture a hungry stray dog while staying at a fancy resort. While the proprietors tried to shoo the animal, thinking it was being bothersome, Maria was actually encouraging the dog to approach. She then calmed him into trusting her so that she could give him some food and water, and he later followed us to our cabana and slept outside. We currently have two dogs in our family, and if I didn’t see it with my own eyes every day, I would not believe two dogs could ever be this happy and comfortable. She does not simply provide them food and water. She rolls around and plays with them whenever they bring her one of their favorite toys, and she lays down with them on whatever surface of the house suits them in the moment. They have so many choices, with 3 beds of their own, a comfy couch and ottoman, and even occasionally our own bed. She bathes them, grooms them, cleans their teeth, and even paints their nails (yes really!). To them, I may be one of their “humans”, but she is truly a part of their pack. Arya, Kathy (our mini French poodles), and Maria would love a chance to share their love with the special furry member of your family, and I promise they will be so very well cared for!!”
