7. Keebie & Jon E.

8. Rhonda J.
“Rhonda was absolutely fabulous with Hatch! We are so appreciative of her communication leading up to and during his visit. She is so kind with Hatch and we will absolutely rebook.”
9. Meegan B.
“This was my first time using Rover and leaving my two cats, Shadow and Luna, in the care of a sitter. Meegan was terrific and took excellent care of my furry babies, sending me regular updates and photos. She did two drop-in visits per day for 6 days. When Meegan came for our first meet and greet, Luna who is normally timid came right out to say hello. On the second meet and greet, Luna plopped down and offered up her belly for a rub, which I took as an excellent sign! Meegan remembered every Instructions I gave from one meet and greet visit to the next, and asked probing questions to make sure she knew all she needed to care for my cats. When I got home from my trip, the two litter boxes had visibly been scooped and refilled, the water bowls were filled, and my cats seemed happy and content with no indication of separation anxiety. Meegan is punctual, professional, friendly and obviously an animal lover. I would absolutely use her services again, and highly recommend her. Rover also made it very easy to communicate.”
10. Joel P.
“Joel is clearly knowledgeable about dogs and was great with mine. He was great about communicating with me and arrived promptly at the times discussed. I would recommend him to others will be using him again.”
11. Eileen B.
“Eileen has been our wonderful, trusted dog sitter for many years. As nervous dog parents with a small, fragile senior dog, we can't imagine entrusting her with anyone but Eileen. We know that going to Eileen's is a vacation for our pup and we don't worry about her at all while we are away. Eileen is an intuitive professional caretaker who anticipates our dog's needs. She always goes above and beyond and we are so grateful to her.”
12. Samantha & Michael M.
“Wonderful experience - we had to rush out of town twice because of an elderly parent’s health. Samantha was there for us both times even though it was short notice. She saw to our cats needs and even helped out with an issue with unplugging a machine that was left running. Wonderful lady!!!”
13. Jessica M.
“Great availability and very nice to my dog!”
14. Kayla W.
About: My name is Kayla, I am 33 years old living in New Milford, CT. Experienced pet owner my entire life having had all sorts of breeds from Labs, Goldens, Bostons, Pitbulls, Mixed Breeds and even Mastiffs. I enjoy taking furry friends on long walks, car rides, trips to the dog park and playing fetch! I also love bath time, so if your pooch is in need of a tub, we can arrange that as well. I am comfortable with all breeds, and sizes. Dogs that bark or jump do not scare me! I may also be able to do overnights if need be with advanced notice; weekends only. Treats, doggie bags, and water are always complimentary! Willing to walk in rain, snow, or sunshine. I do have a rescue of my own and her name is Kleo. She is a hurting breed mix, with lots of energy. Having such a high energy pooch has made me very passionate about training, so if you need help in that area, let’s talk! Feel free to ask any questions. My weekday schedule is wide open as of now! Weekends are doable but would need at least 24-48hrs notice to prepare. I am available for daily walks and potty breaks, or schedules such as 2-3 times per week. I can also talk about last minute needs if emergencies come up or normal pet sitters are unavailable. Personally I have a rescue of my own who is leash, crate, and potty trained. However I like to provide my undivided attention to that of the pet I am working with, while respecting the pet parents wishes when it comes to any service. I will cater to you and your pets needs!
15. Elaina S.
About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs, and have learned their very special behaviors. Whatever your animals needs are I am sure I will meet them. I’m available on weekends and nights all summer long. Right now I am working part time and taking a few classes at Community College. Whenever you need me, I’ll be there! I will strictly follow the schedule that you have for your animals. I am also keen on socializing animals and will make sure to spend plenty of time with your fur baby.
16. Leah M.
“Leah was super nice,felt comfortable having her look in on maggie my dog while I was out of town!”
17. Rebecca D.
“I recently had the pleasure of using Rebecca's service, and I must say, she was absolutely amazing. As someone who worries about their fur babies while at work, finding someone reliable and trustworthy is paramount. Rebecca exceeded all my expectations. From the get-go, her responsiveness stood out. She quickly replied to my inquiries and meticulously followed the instructions I provided for the care of my babies. It's clear she has a passion for animals and their care, and her help was invaluable. I will definitely be using her services again and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for peace of mind when it comes to the care of their babies.”
18. Jennifer F.
“Jenn has been wonderful with all of our pets! We have known her for years she has helped us out with our cat, new puppy as well as older dog during her last few days with us. She has always been compassionate and very attentive to all of their needs—whether it was simply feeding and cleaning out a litter box to administering medicines. Is definitely our go to when we go away!”
19. Melissa N.
“Melissa would be an excellent dog caregiver. I’ve seen her take care of her family dog along with her 2 cats, turtle, fish, and birds. She loves animals and I have no doubt that she will be anything less than amazing when it comes to being a dog caregiver with Rover.”
20. lauren f.
“Lauren is an amazing pet caregiver! She is assertive, responsible, and very compassionate to animals. She has taken care of my dog, Luna, while I was away for a week and I got frequent updates and photos that assured me that my dog was in Lauren's great hands. She treats others' pets just like her own - her dog Bowie is one of the most well cared for pups out there!”
