“Leo has been amazing with Sonny! Always communicative, flexible, and takes the extra time to make sure Sonny is settled before he leaves! Bonus that he takes the cutest pictures on their walks!”


“Cindy did an excellent job in a challenging situation. Ike was not interested in going for a walk or being friends (even though they had met). She kept him company and I would definitely recommend her!”



“Sara is amazing to work with! When my dad’s standard poodle was moving in to live with him at an assisted living facility, we needed someone we could trust with a sometimes stubborn pup! It didn’t take Viola long to warm up to Sara! Sara’s updates are great and informative. We look forward to having Sara care for our pups when we leave town for vacation. Thanks so much, Sara!”


“Terry was fabulous for her walk with Atlas! She arrived promptly at the scheduled walk time, and provided a detailed write-up with lots of photos to capture her visit, which included not just the neighborhood walk, but also play time in the backyard, pets, and practice of Atlas's "commands"! We are looking forward to having Terry come stay with Atlas during an upcoming trip, as it's abundantly clear that she takes great pride in the pet care she provides!”


About: Hello my name is Sophia! I have been taking care of my own pets for my whole life, not just cats and dogs. I am a full time college student that loves animals. I am a full time college student living at home I am available for visits in the mornings, some afternoons and always night. Though my schedule is busy I am always flexible. In my home, I provide a comfortable and pet-friendly environment for your furry friends. They will have their designated space, regular walks, playtime, and personalized care routines. In your home, I adapt to your pet's familiar surroundings, maintaining their routines, feeding schedules, and ensuring they receive the attention and love they need. My approach is flexible and tailored to meet the unique needs of each pet and client I serve.

“Crystal was just great! A lovely meet and greet- I trusted her immediately with my pet family. I love the GPS read-out of their walk. A wonderful experience, I recommend Crystal very highly.??”


About: I grew up with 3 dogs, today both my sisters have a dog; a Golden Retriever & a German Shepard. I have watched and cared for both of them, as well as pet/house sitting for other family & friends. I also became a cat dad when I adopted a six year old cat three years ago! I just moved to CT so while I search for a job I decided to join Rover!! 6am-10pm 7 days a week I am available! I can be an early bird or a night owl & I love all animals! I can take your pet on a long run or a short walk and anything in between! Most of my experience is with bigger dog breeds like German Shepard, Golden Retriever, & Pit Bull. I have also cared for French Bull Dogs and other unknown dog breeds. I would love to work with any animals! My favorite part is learning how unique each animals is & getting to know their personalities!!

“Willem is absolutely amazing! He is very accommodating and worked with me throughout adding a foster puppy while also walking my dog. He also works on training during walks and it is very effective! We have been working together for some time and I will continue to work with him!”


About: New to Rover but not to pet sitting! My family has had dogs my whole life. As the oldest child in my household, I was responsible for all the little guys. Now I have an adorable, sassy cat at home who is a constant reminder of respectful boundaries and unconditional love. I’ve been a contact for family and friends when they need someone to watch or check in with their fur babies. I always want to make sure you and your pet are comfortable around me. I would be honored to care for your best friend. Don't hesitate to ask any questions regarding my services and we’ll see if I’m a good fit for you. I am currently in between jobs so I have a wide range of availability! In the future, I expect to be working part to full time during normal workweek hours 9-5, so would have more availability in early mornings and evenings. I have a fenced in yard and am nearby many dog-friendly trails. To stay at my home, your dog must be comfortable with cats, potty trained, and overall well-behaved. My cat has not had experience with other cats in our home so that is not something I am comfortable with. Around your home, I am happy to stick to whatever practices and routines are familiar and comfortable for your pet.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years—from cuddly lap cats to energetic pups. I’m reliable, gentle, and always focused on keeping pets happy. I’m currently working part-time while going to Eastern State University so I’m pretty flexible! I’m primarily looking to work Mondays, anytime after 12 pm and Fridays. :) Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, loving environment where pets feel secure and cared for. You can trust me to treat your furry family members like my own, ensuring peace of mind while you’re away.

About: When it comes to pet care, I stand out from the rest in the area for numerous reasons. First and foremost, your beloved pet will be treated as a cherished member of our family during their stay with us. With a lifelong passion for dogs, I have been caring for these furry companions since I was just 10 years old. From energetic Corgis to playful Pit Bulls, from gentle Golden Retrievers to lovable Saint Bernards, I have experience with a wide range of breeds and temperaments. What truly sets me apart is my patience with all dogs, ensuring that your pet receives not only love and attention but also the grace they deserve. Rain or shine, daily walks are a staple in our routine, and I take great delight in strolling through the rain with a furry friend by my side. With my dedicated care, expertise in training, and unwavering commitment to providing a nurturing environment, I am the ideal choice for ensuring your pet's happiness, safety, and well-being. As a teacher, pet care seamlessly integrates into our daily and weekly routine. With the flexibility of our schedules, there is always someone present to attend to your furry family member even if one of us needs to step out briefly with the children. My commitment to your pet's well-being ensures that they are never left alone for extended periods of time. Whether it's engaging in playtime, administering meals, or providing comforting company, your furry friend will always have a loving presence by their side. We understand the importance of consistency and stability in a pet's life, and we strive to maintain a nurturing environment that seamlessly integrates into our daily and weekly routines. We just recently fenced-in our yard, the safety and well-being of your pet are of utmost importance to us. To ensure their security, the back door will remain locked during their stay, and all entrances and exits will be conducted through the front door, where a leash will be securely attached to your dog. Unless specified otherwise, your pet will become just part of our family, granting them the freedom to roam certain areas of the house. Our couches and chairs are open for their lounging pleasure, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. To maintain a harmonious feeding routine, your pet will be provided separate mealtimes, distinct from our own animals and children. Rest assured that while under our care, your beloved pet will receive individualized attention, an inviting environment, and the utmost consideration for their comfort and safety.

Connor S.
“Finding a good match for our furry friend Pippi has always been a challenge due to her aggression towards most strangers, but Connor somehow got through to her and gave us the opportunity to go have a stress free vacation. He even took her to the beach twice while we were away for the week which really helps with her anxiety (which was completely not necessary but was so amazing!). I couldn’t recommend him more and will be using him again!”

Caitlyn R.
“Cait did an amazing job watching my two dogs, Brutus and Koda, and my cat, Bean, over the long weekend. I was a little nervous to leave them for that long, but she really went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. She kept me updated every day with photos and little check-ins, which helped me relax knowing they were in good hands. Brutus can be a little anxious when I’m gone, and Cait was super patient with him — even figured out that he settles better when he gets his favorite blanket during downtime. Koda has a ton of energy, and Cait made sure he got plenty of playtime and walks to tire him out. At one point, Bean somehow knocked her food bowl behind the fridge (classic), and Cait didn’t just leave it — she actually moved the fridge, found it, and cleaned up the mess without even making a big deal out of it. I didn’t even know that was possible, honestly. I came home to a clean apartment, happy pets, and a note from Cait with a little summary of the weekend. It was such a thoughtful touch. I could tell she really cared about making sure everything was done right. Would 100% recommend her to anyone who needs a reliable, kind, and super capable pet sitter.”


Priyana K.
“Priyana is such a big pet lover. My dog is always so happy when Priyana comes to walk her. She does a great job and she is very reliable.”

Jessica P.
“Jessica is enthusiastic about dogs and animals in general. Her love for animals carries into the way she cares for dogs. She has a way of making dogs feel at ease and she is great at making sure they don't get into trouble.”


Tirzah F.
“Tirzah is a great dog sitter, I have two chihuahua mixes and they are super anxious all the time especially when I’m not there, and she is a great help in getting them to calm down and behave while I’m gone! She’s punctual and listens well to directions and my dogs love her :)”


Jessica M.
“I have never met anyone that loves animals as much as Jessie. Her life revolves around animals. She works at a veterinary clinic for her day job. She takes her dogs to training classes 5 days a week and apprentices to become a licensed dog trainer. You will not find a sitter more qualified or that cares about your pet more.”
