I loved that Heather came to meet Farah and I. I could tell right away she was caring and very patient. Our cat sitter couldn't come to check in on Farah while we were on vacation due to unexpected health decline. Heather was willing to with very little notice. We were gone for 13 days and had Heather do a drop in for 11 days. Farah requires eye cleaning just about every day and is super picky about how clean her litter box is. She also hates getting her eyes cleaned and Heather did such a great job with her eye care. She made sure she had clean water each day too. Heather did the best job!! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl!!

Amara was amazing! Even got my reclusive cat Soeren to come out for treats. Lily, of course, was her usual extroverted self and came out for lovies. So sad we only got to try her services once, but we will definitely recommend her to friends.

About: I have a lot of experience with animals, including previous house-sitting experience and working at zoos. I love being able to spend time with pets and give them love and care while their families are busy or out of town! I currently have full availability and can fully adapt to your schedule. I can do at home care, including overnights, drop in visits, or walks whenever needed! I live in a single-bedroom apartment, so I would only feel comfortable providing care in my home for cats. I have lots of experience working with animals both professionally and for friends and family. I love being able to care for pets at their comfort level with new people and find so much joy in being able to fit into your pets lives!

Mariah was great! Her photo updates always showed that Duffy was having fun, and in good hands. Communication is important when we entrust our fur friends to others, and Mariah was right on top of that. Will definitely book her again when I have opportunity to travel!

Highly recommend! Upon reading the report card from Tonie, a comment was made from another dog owner, "Wow, you got a good rover." I was so nervous leaving my dogs, especially my ailing senior. When my normal dogsitter cancelled last minute, I was very hesitant having a stranger watch my dogs. Tonie did a great job. I actually prefer her over my other sitters.

About: I stand out from other sitters because I bring a rare combination of veterinary training, hands‑on clinical experience, and a lifetime of caring for animals of all sizes. I’m currently a veterinary nursing student at Marian University Plymouth, graduating in August 2026, which means I approach every pet with a strong understanding of animal health, behavior, and safety. Alongside my education, I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant in both large and small animal medicine, including at Crossroads Food Animals Veterinary Service, LLC and during my externship at the Emergency Veterinary Care Center in Summer 2025. These roles have given me extensive experience with senior pets, animals with medical needs, medication administration, safe animals handling and recognizing early signs of illness or stress — skills that most sitters don’t have. Beyond my clinical background, animals have been a central part of my life from the very beginning. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to shy or anxious pets. I also have a fountain in farm work which created a strong sense of responsibility and dedication. Your pets aren’t just watched — they’re cared for by someone who truly understands them. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I’m currently completing my externships for my veterinary nursing program, which gives me a structured but flexible schedule. I work Monday through Thursday, with an hour break at 1 PM, so depending on your location I can stop by for mid‑day potty breaks during the week. I’m also able to provide a consistent, work‑style schedule, meaning I can visit in the mornings before work and be available again in the evenings for feeding, walks, or check‑ins. My weekends are even more open, allowing plenty of time for longer visits or extended care. Because of my profession and lifestyle, pet sitting fits seamlessly into my routine, and I make sure each pet gets reliable, attentive care throughout the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and consistent environment that keeps pets comfortable. I like too follow the pet’s normal routines as closely as possible — from feeding and medication schedules to preferred walking routes and bedtime habits — because familiar patterns help reduce stress. I treat every home with the same respect I’d want for my own. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, enrichment, and reassurance so they feel relaxed even when their family is away. My goal is to provide care that feels seamless, trustworthy, and grounded in both compassion and professional experience.

Anabela was at my house over the holidays and dropped in on my 3 cats twice a day. This was my first experience with Anabela and she was AMAZING!! I have OCD so I am very detailed about everything. She followed my instructions to a tee! She communicated effectively and provided great pictures. My cats loved her and so do I. I highly recommend Anabela for your pets.

About: I’ve had pets all my life. From lizards, to birds, cats and dogs, you name it. For the last 3 years I have been pet sitting for friends, neighbors, coworkers, and friends of friends as an in house sitter. I am currently working full time, however, my work life is very flexible with flexible hours. I can do middle of the day check ins if that is what you would prefer with no problem. I do spend a lot of time with the pets late afternoons to late evenings if I am not staying in the residence. When caring for pets in your home, I encourage a very detailed day to day that your pet has so I do not break from that routine for them as much as possible. It’s my hope for you and your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as possible. No needs or routine is too inconsiderate for me.

About: Hi I am Stephanie. I am a life long dog owner and lover of all animals. I currently have a Cavapoo named Sophie who is my little ball of attitude. I have experience with all kinds of dogs, labs, cocker spaniel, doodles, German shepherds,and French Bulldogs. I am willing to watch in your home as my girl isn't fond of guests. I work full time but depending on the area of town I am available for midday walks and care as well more and evening. I would love to provide amazing care for your pup while you enjoy a relaxing vacation or are out of town for any reason. I currently work full time on the north side of town but am located in New Haven in. I get 1 hr for lunch and if you are located huntertown or in this area I can definitely do midday walks and cuddles. Walks, let on lead, electric fence or anyway you prefer your pets to do their business. Feeding, playing and of course cuddles to begin and end the day.

This is the first time that we decided to try Rover. We needed to be out of town for two weeks and one of our dogs just had surgery requiring extra care. Edmy and her husband were amazing at helping us out. We had them come two times per day for two weeks. They showed up every time we scheduled and were so good with both our dogs. They were able to handle the care of our dog that required more attention. They took both dogs outside and stayed outside for long periods of time. Each time they checked the food and changed the water for dogs. Kept their cage clean and comfortable. We were sent pictures, informative notes, and communication was very reliable. We will definitely be using their services again and highly recommend them. Our doggies are going to miss them!
