“We were fortunate to have Dana house sit for us on relatively short notice. She watched our 13 year old dog and 2 cats. We received updates and came home to some happy pets and a tidy house.”
“Holly bailed me out when I had a last minute appointment. I couldn't have been happier. Came out on a cold rainy afternoon and took care of my babies like they were her own. I highly recommend her. She was on time, sweet and you can immediate sense she loves her job. I will definitely use her again.”
About: I love all pets. I’ve taken care of over seven different dogs ranging from 8 weeks old to 15+. I’ve administered medication orally and topical long walks and assistance after medical procedures. I do not do boarding in my own home. 100% in the comfort of your own home please do not hesitate to reach out for any questions! I am very flexible for any pet care for any questions. Feel free to reach out. I’m available at all times of day and night to make sure our babies are okay I have a dog and cat we feed both twice a day the correct amount needed for them. Our dog goes on a daily walk. Other client care I do whatever the pet parent needs and wants to ensure the safety of their pet and whatever they are comfortable with.
“If you need a pet sitter. CHOOSE HALLIE! She was so good with our two poodles. We were away overnight on the 4th of July and one of our dogs is afraid of fireworks. Hallie made sure to make him feel safe and updated us often with pictures and messages. They definitely loved all the love and attention she gave them. It was such a comfort to us to know that Hallie was not only caring for our pets, but also for our home. She's the best, thank you Hallie!!”
“Dagmar is truly the absolute BEST. I was incredibly nervous about leaving our dog baby overnight during our winter and spring travels, but from the very beginning, Dagmar put my entire family at ease. Her attentiveness, kindness, and genuine love for animals were immediately clear, and it's made all the difference. Plus, I could tell our dog was also comfortable with her right away. She cared for our dog as if they were her own. She is thoughtful, patient, and completely reliable. Sends lots of pictures and updates through out her stay. We've come home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and that peace of mind is priceless. It’s not easy to trust someone with a beloved pet, but with Dagmar, we never had a single doubt. We feel so lucky and grateful to have found her. We look forward to working with her on-going and cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Aaliyah stayed in our home for 4 nights watching our cat and dog - she was truly unbelievable and made us feel at ease while traveling. She sent constant updates, photos, videos and went above and beyond to take care of our pets and to make sure we felt comfortable. She left our home spotless, took in our packages and was very responsive. Our pets are excited to see Aaliyah again!”
“Crystal is amazing! She was warm and kind and my fur babies were very well taken care of! The best part - she communicated updates and sent photos very regularly which is what I had asked for. I was very confident that my babies were in loving and caring hands! I highly recommend Crystal!”
“Claire is absolutely the best dog sitter you could find. We came home from an extended trip to find out senior dog calm and happy after Claire’s overnight stays at our home. Claire sent photos, videos and text updates daily which were lovely and reassuring.”
“Elvia is wonderful with dogs, reliable, and has a great personality! She is well suited as a dog sitter and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Out two Aussies fell in love with her within two minutes and I felt extremely comfortable leaving them with her. Highly recommend! Thank you, Elvia!”
“Emily is one of the best dog sitters I’ve ever used. She was fantastic with Willie, extremely communicative, and very flexible and understanding with us. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Nicole does a great job with our 8 year old Golden Retriever. She works from our home, so our dog is not by herself for too much time. We have used Nicole now at least for 3 years for house sitting and also for short pop ins when we are gone just for a day trip. Nicole leaves our house looking clean and in great shape. We will absolutely use Nicole again.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Vladimir. This was my first time using Rover. I have two labs. One lab who is older with some medical needs. I could not take him to “camp” anymore. So knowing the two were comfortable in their home brought a peace of mind to me. Vladimir was very responsive and accommodating all throughout the experience. He took very good care of my “boys” and took lots of great pictures of their adventures. He also left house spotless. Overall, I would highly recommend Vladimir. Your fur babies will be well cared for. We look forward to working with him again in the future!”
“Claudia was wonderful for her overnight visit with my senior dog at my apartment. It was my first time having someone stay at my place with my dog, and she was an incredibly respectful and polite house guest, sent so many pictures of Maple, and kept me updated throughout the stay. You can completely trust her with your pet and in your home!”
“Shannon was a great sitter for our holiday weekend out of town! She is very friendly and responded quickly. She sent a bunch of photos which made us feel more at ease leaving our babies at home. She also helped watering the flowers and garden outside. We are happy with her service and would gladly hire her again.”
“Brandon completely went above and beyond to care for our two cats and home while we were gone for a week and a half! He asked thoughtful questions, followed all directions to a T, and often sent some greatly appreciated picture/video updates (and prompt responses). We were SO grateful to return home to find our cats in amazing spirits after clearly having some solid companionship, and to find our house exactly as we left it. Would absolutely book with him again!”
“Kelsey was wonderful with our dogs while we escaped for a weekend away. She kept us appropriately up to date and ensured they got exercise and love. We came home to a clean house and happy, content dogs.”
“We came home to two happy and well cared for pups! Our previously booked sitter had to cancel a week before our trip, and we're very grateful to Hanaya for looking after them on such short notice!”
“I’m not kidding, I’m tempted to gatekeep but won’t because Alyssa deserves all the love and dog jobs in the world. Seriously, best dog sitter ever. Thoughtful, sent daily summaries and photos, my reactive dog was so HAPPY!!! I feel truly lucky to have found her. 10/10. She is the best. Will rebook again and again and again as long as she wants to keep watching pups.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I’m an animal lover who understands that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to following your pet’s routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or extra cuddles. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently part time working! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because animals are a big part of my life. I make time each day for feeding, playtime, walks, attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. Since I have two cats of my own, I understand the importance of keeping a consistent routine and providing companionship, even when owners are away. I’m able to incorporate pet care into my schedule by dedicating time for visits, walks, check-ins, and giving each pet the attention they need. I enjoy spending time with animals and love being able to provide reliable, loving care for pets and peace of mind for their owners. I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while respecting their normal routines. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, playtime, walks, and any special needs their pet may have. I understand that pets feel most comfortable when their routines stay consistent, so I do my best to make the experience as stress-free as possible. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, calm space where they can feel comfortable and receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Whether at my home or a client’s, I treat every pet like they are my own and make sure they feel safe and loved.

Jennifer did a great job watching our dog while we attended funeral services for a beloved family member. Jennifer figured out quickly how to best care for our dog and it was a relief for us. She was very accommodating and positive. I will definitely contact Jennifer again when we are in the area. Thank you Jennifer!
Jasmine was terrific! Our boy Jack is a big insecure baby. He took to Jasmine right away. We went away for the first time able to leave Jack in his favorite environment, home. We got a photo everyday and correspondence on what was going on. Felt very much in touch. Thank you Jasmine. We will hopefully be able to book with you again soon.
Brandon took excellent care of Leo while we were away. He was professional and communicated well, took great care of our home and made sure that all of Leo’s needs were met. Leo loved cuddling with Brandon and especially appreciated the forest hikes! We’d highly recommend Brandon!
Anine stayed with our two Goldens and our two cats for a weekend. It was her first time staying with them and everything went seamlessly. She sent us several photos and the animals looked so happy and comfortable with her. She has a wonderful personality and took excellent care of the whole crew. I look forward to having her stay with them again (and I am sure they are looking forward to it too!
We needed a fill-in sitter for one weekend. Vinny got along with our pups and kitty really well and respected our home. I appreciate that he listened to our training requests with our youngest pup and not allowing him to jump. We had a last minute curveball with our oldest pup and she needed extra attention, she was well looked after. We felt at ease the entire weekend and came home to a calm, happy household.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Greenwich walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Greenwich maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Greenwich choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
