About: Hi there! My name is Brianna and I’ve always had a passion for dogs. I’m generally a go to for friends and family when they need someone to watch their pet! I currently work Monday - Thursday. My main option on here is dog walking but I am open to both drop in’s and house sitting during the weekends! I have three dogs Harley, Chloe, and Max. We have a fenced in yard where they can run around! They use wee wee pads which I’m comfortable with as well as go on walks!
About: I have a two year old pitty-mix and am experienced in puppy training and care! I’ve had dogs my whole life but also had a leopard gecko for over a decade and lived with a cat in the past! I’m open to all and would love to hang with your furry (or scaly) little one. I’m a recent grad looking for full time employment and I have all the time in the world until the fall to care for your pet! I likely won’t be able to keep your pet in my home as I have a full family with a dog of my own but I’m open to it on a case-by-case basis. I have a fenced in yard. However I’m happy to accommodate your pets needs in your home however is best!

About: Animals have always been the biggest part of my life. I've never met an animal who I didn't immediately love, no matter what species or size. I have spent my life learning to understand and communicate with animals to best meet their individual needs. The majority of my experience is in caring for animals with special needs and disabilities. I have an extensive background in animal care, including; veterinary student and technician, former volunteer coordinator & foster with the SPCA, current volunteer large animal caretaker, and much more. I am Pet CPR certified and I always carry a first aid kit, along with allergy friendly treats, a spare leash, and lots of poop bags. My goal is to give you and your pet a positive, stress-free experience that they will look forward to almost as much as they look forward to having you home. I am flexible and will always do everything in my power to accommodate requests made on short notice, emergencies, extended sitting stays, and even some holidays. I also offer the following amenities which can be added onto any existing pet service; light house cleaning, laundry, basic dog grooming, and basic dog training (these services are separate from Rover and do not appear as options, please inquire directly). I am also more than happy to accommodate other pets, and have extensive experience with all species of birds, rabbits, rats, guinea pigs, tortoises, turtles, fish, pigs, cows, and horses. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your furry, feathery, or fluffy family members! 🐾 Animal caretaking is my life, 24/7/365! My schedule reflects my current availability around the other animals I am currently caring for, and my availability is first come, first served. I can make accommodations for emergencies or short notice when needed. Your pet will never be out of sight during visits or stays, and update photos will always be provided as frequently as you'd like during our scheduled time.
About: Hi, I am a science teacher who is looking for a part time activity to keep myself busy. During the summer I am usually always free if not i love to travel. I am flexible and work with my clients. I am usually available. I myself, have a minature pinscher who I adore and love, I love playing and feeding dogs, going out for walks or even just hanging out and cuddling with the fur babies. I am flexible, outgoing, a quick learner, and especially love dogs as if they were my own. I care for puppies to senior dogs. I will love your pet, feed, go out for walks, and we can play with each other. I care for puppies and senior dogs who need care and attention and will follow your rules. I am currently home if I am not teaching and looking for something to do part time. I am usually flexible and available during the week and some weekends. If my clients have a fenced in yard, I stay with the dogs and play outside with them. I never leave them unattended. If not, dogs are usually walked on a leash. My number one goal is to always keep fur babies safe and protected as if they are my own.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. Neighbors, friends, and family regularly rely on me to walk their dogs — whether it’s daily routines or helping while they’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and safety they need on every walk. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time and energy to give pets the attention, love, and care they deserve. Since I focus on dog walking, I always follow the pet owner’s leash, route, and care instructions. I ensure each dog feels safe and gets plenty of movement and attention during our walk.
“Our beloved fur-boy is Garrett, a 4-year-old Siberian Husky who loves Richie! Just recently, we went away for a 5-day trip and had to leave Garrett at home. Luckily, we met Richie and hired him to do drop-in visits, 3 times a day, for the entire time we were away. Richie made sure that Garrett was taken out for his potty breaks, took him for walks and provided the kind of service and care that he needed. Richie delivered beyond my expectations. He is very reliable, dependable and communicated really well, providing us with updates and feedbacks. From now onwards, he is my to-go-to person whenever we need a back up care for Garrett!”
About: I started my pet journey growing up with dogs as a kid. I adopted a hissy adult cat in 2017 (my exact words were, “I’m looking for the most difficult, pain in the butt cat you have” and they told me they had the perfect one!). After she passed unexpectedly from cancer, I started volunteering and fostering with a local animal shelter. Since January 2023 I’ve had almost 100 fosters! One puppy, two adult dogs, and a whole bunch of cats and kittens! I also walk dogs at the shelter when I’m able. I am also certified in pet first aid and working towards my Vet Tech degree. Because of my volunteer work with the shelter, I have a lot of varied experience when it comes to working with dogs and cats of all kinds both behaviorally and medically, although my area of expertise lies with cats. I work from home so have a relatively flexible schedule. My favorite animals to help are kitties (both in age and at heart) who need a little TLC during the day or check-ins when their paw-parents are away. Because my kitty baby was a runner, I am very cautious when entering/exiting a home. I am also very cautious when it comes to sanitation, toxic food and substances, and animal body language. I understand the importance of providing animals with mental and physical stimulation and am always eager to provide them with enrichment.
About: I am 22 years old and have had dogs my entire life and know how to properly take care of any dog of any size. Even though I am a dog person cats do not bother me. I graduated from Post University in Waterbury, CT. I am very easy going and super easy to work with. You can reach me at just about any time of the day with any questions or concerns. I knew I have always wanted to do something like this but, was not sure exactly where to go. If you did not catch my name, I am Joe and am happy to start helping out. When I am home I am always walking the dogs and also love to throw the ball around and run with both of my dogs. As said previously I walk and play with my pups and they love to run and stay active just like myself and they have a ton of energy.

19. Gabriella A.
“Gabriella A would make a great pet sitter and dog walker. As a pet parent herself, she’s shown a deep love and affection for her cat Vassa and that is reflected in how kindly and compassionately she treats all pets and animals. What’s more, she volunteers to foster cats and dogs and helps them find new forever homes. I’ve only witnessed her deep passion for animals and the special attention and care she takes in providing for each and every one of the animals she fosters according to their needs. Not only that, but she’s meticulous and organized. I’ve seen her write whole lists and meal plans for her cat and the foster animals she’s taken care of, and she adheres to regimented schedules to in order to meet their needs. Her kind and humorous personality makes her patient in every situation. She’s also fun-loving and playful, making her the perfect pet companion. She’d make for a wonderful pet sitter and dog walker!”
20. Joe C.
“How has dogs himself he cares for with his family and I’ve seen first hand how loving and caring he is for them. Even when at my home, he is very friendly and kind to my dog as well. When he isn’t working one of his other jobs he is always helping others when he can. Joe is organized and prioritizes his work no matter the situation.”
