“I highly recommend Noah as a cat sitter! He was kind, attentive, and took the time to learn each of my cats’ individual preferences and made sure to follow them. Throughout the stay, he sent me daily updates with photos and detailed notes about how they were doing, which really put my mind at ease. His communication was excellent, and it’s very clear how much he genuinely loves animals. I’ll absolutely be booking him again!”

“Absolutely amazing! Kenneth was on time and took care of my fur babies. My senior dog loved his drop ins for sure and the three walks a day. He made sure they had plenty of water and food. Cleaned the litter box too. Even played with Oreo the cat and his favorite string toy. Would definitely recommend to my friends and request him again if needed.”

“Heath did an amazing job watching our pups! I have 3 dogs and one is a senior dog with mobility issues. All the dogs were happy and well taken care of. Heath was also very communicative, and punctual with all the drop in times. We will absolutely book him again for future persisting needs!”


“Caprice took care of my cat like her own, spent lot od time with him, played with him, and did anything she could to make our time apart more comfortable for him.”

About: Ive spent my entire life around dogs and cats, both at home and at work. I have experience working in a veterinary setting, and I currently work part time at a doggy daycare/boarding facility. I have a well rounded experience working with cats and dogs, but I've also got experience with reptiles, fish, and amphibians! I usually work evening shifts, so my mornings are always open. I'll have plenty of time to come by and spend time with your pets before work. It's very important to make sure that beyond just getting basic needs met, that I always have time to spoil your pets! Animals deserve love, and when you're away, they deserve it doubly so.

About: Hi my name is Neriah and I'm a second year college student at CCRI. I've had dogs ever since I was 6. I currently have one dog named Apollo. I also have 3 cats. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have pet sat for a family friend who has three dogs. During that time, I was responsible for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and making sure they felt comfortable and safe while their owner was away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I make it a priority to follow owners' instructions carefully. I am dependable, patient, and committed to providing pets with the attention, care, and affection they deserve. Whether your pet enjoys active playtime or simply needs companionship, I will treat them as if they were my own. Experience Includes: Daily feeding and fresh water Walks and exercise Potty breaks Playtime and companionship Caring for multiple pets at once Following specific schedules and routines Monitoring pets for safety and well-being Providing updates to owners I currently work part-time Saturday through Monday, which gives me plenty of availability during the week to care for your pets. I am available for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day on weekdays. On workdays, I can stop by before my shift in the morning and again after work in the evening to make sure your pets are well cared for and comfortable. I am committed to following your pet's routine and providing reliable, attentive care so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the care instructions provided by pet owners, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications (if needed), and any special requirements. I take the time to learn each pet's personality and needs so they can feel comfortable and secure while you're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and appropriate exercise and playtime. I also keep doors and gates secure and monitor pets closely during walks and outdoor time. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else's care. I am reliable, attentive, and committed to providing updates and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: As a pet owner myself, I value honest and reliable care, not only for owners, but the animals themselves. I have experience providing care for a diverse set of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and other small animals. I aim to build trust with those for whom I provide care. I am comfortable with administering medication and attending to specific needs. Most importantly, I treat others pets with the same love and attentiveness as I do my own. I work full-time during the week, though I have more flexibility on Tuesdays and Thursdays when I work from home. I am available for drop-in visits any day of the week. I work with my clients to meet their needs and go out of my way to do so. When providing care in an owner’s home, I aim to leave pets and the home in a state that the owner would be happy to return to. I respect the boundaries of owners and pets alike so that I can build a relationship of trust, communication, and reliability. I hope to show my dedication to proper pet care through my actions.
About: I have been taking care of my dog since I was in middle school, feeding him, walking him and I take care of my cat on my own I provide everything for both. I take care of both daily in the morning in the afternoon and at night. I feed them both morning and night, I care for my cat by changing his litter and taking him on walks in his cat stroller and taking my dog on walks. I feed both my cat and dog morning,noon and night and I take my dog on walks. I walk my cat in his cat stroller.

“Renee is great! I requested her on Monday to come to my home Tuesday through Friday for puppy visits and she agreed and came by Monday night to meet me and my pup! She’s been awesome, and her updates are great. She tells me exactly what the pup does when she visits, walks, pees, poos, eats, plays, and tricks that I’ve been working on that she reinforces. Would highly recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for over 10 years.

Snuggles and play time included! I am available for in home care and walks Saturdays Through Mondays. I am available Sundays and Mondays all day, and Mondays through Saturdays after 3 o’clock pm. I am flexible with instructions, and I am detail oriented. I can be as particular, or as laid back as you’d like! I am proactive and want you and your pet to feel safe and cared for.
“We just got our puppy and was nervous about leaving him for a concert but Ashley was amazing with him! She made me feel reassured that he was safe and being taken care of! We will definitely be using her in the future!”

“Jonathan was a lifesaver when prior a pet sitter canceled last minute, and in a way I’m happy it turned out that way! You can tell from the minute you meet him he genuinely cares for your animals like they are his own and makes every effort to show it. He even crocheted a blanket for our kitty! My husband and I never had to worry a day while we were on our vacation because we knew our cats were in great hands. We cannot begin to thank you enough!”
“Justina was nothing short of exceptional with our babies! As a girl in her late 20s with older parents who were a bit on the fence using Rover, Justina came into the house with care and compassion and gave that same attitude with my girlies. She kept me in the loop with everything going on and made sure they were 100% taken care of while we were all out of town. I will absolutely be booking with her again!”

“First time using this app!! Latifa was fantastic, I felt at ease knowing that my cats were taken care . I was given daily check ups and pics. I would highly recommend using Rover & LATIFA A.”


About: I have two dogs of my own that I’ve had since puppy-hood. Ever since I was a kid, my heart would joyously melt in front of any and every four legged friend. I love getting to know other animals, and take care of them as if they were my own. I got my start pet sitting by looking after my friends and neighbors’ dogs and cats on occasion. At present, my longest cat sitting gig was 3 weeks straight in which I stayed with my fur friend for ~6-8 hours a day just to keep her company. I work remotely, so my workstation is mobile. In this was I can make most pet-sitting tasks and hours work— while assuring your pets have company, enrichment, and supervision. (As an aside, I go by both Vera and Amanda and use them interchangably) I work remotely 10am-6pm monday-friday. Ideally, i prefer to visit pets and take care of them anytime before 10am, but my calendar is very flexible. My workstation is mobile, so if desired, I can keep your pet company for extended periods of time during the day. I’m also available all day on the weeknds. I have 2 dogs that I love dearly and walk 2-3 times every single day at routine times. I brush them frequently, I strap on little booties for their paws daily to protect them from the hot pavement, and I play with them to their little hearts content.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hartford
Absolutely amazing person. One of my pups can be very barky around new people until he gets used to them and Kemba handled this with confidence and fearlessness I have never seen before. Seriously, the last Rover we tried got scared off and said he was too much for her. It was difficult to find someone who would take the job, which is frustrating because while he wouldn’t hurt a fly he has a loud, and to some, intimidating bark. Kemba drove well out of his way to help us out, had no fear or apprehension when meeting him for the first time and was able to provide coverage on the days we needed with Shadow clearly having warmed up to him after a few visits. 10/10 will be booking him EVERY time a checkin is needed from now on!

WOW! I cannot say enough good things about Jasmine. She is truly a “cat” person and our three cats were immediately comfortable with her (and they often hide from visitors!). From the first visit, I knew she was going to be fantastic and I felt relief knowing that I could trust her and that my cats would be taken care of while I was away. She was so reliable and attentive, dropping in for the visits on time, following our feeding instructions, administering medication, and giving me super detailed updates with plenty of pictures! Jasmine truly cares about the pets’ wellbeing and took her duties seriously. I am so thankful to have found Jasmine, I would 100% book with her again, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!

We had a wonderful experience! Emily was able to help us on very short notice, which was a huge relief. She took excellent care of our two cats, making sure they were well fed, comfortable, and got plenty of attention. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter.

I’m very pleased with Samantha service. I was always informed about anything, any changes or behaviors with my dear 4 paws daughter. I definitely would hire Samantha again. She went above and beyond. Example: I told her that she didn’t necessarily need to take my Sam for walks but she asked if she could, I said that It was all up to her. my daughter loved it!!!

Jessica was fantastic with Lucky! From the moment he saw her at the meet and greet, they immediately clicked. I hired her to come twice a day and she always went above and beyond sending photos of Lucky throughout her visits. He always looked like he was having a great time while she was over. She took him on walks, played with him, and really kept him engaged. I'm always sad when I leave Lucky for a few days, but having Jessica there to keep him company eased my nervousness completely. Would have her watch him again in a heartbeat.

Katrina was fantastic! She was patient, kind and loving with our dog, Ocean. She dealt with a couple of blips, an electrical outage and an itinerary change with grace and equanimity. We will hire her anytime we go away and have already referred friends and family to her. I can’t imagine a better pet sitter.

Lila was wonderful with Snickers. She was very prompt and did everything I asked with his crazy senior dog behaviors. She’s sweet and loves dogs, it’s obvious with her interaction when she met my dog. It was also quite a last-minute booking, and she really helped us out that way.
