About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and am very comfortable caring for them day-to-day. I understand dogs’ routines, body language, and needs, and I treat every dog with patience, attention, and care I currently work part time at a retail store so I’m not usually busy depending on the day but my day to day may vary I care for pets by following their routine closely, making sure they’re fed, exercised, and comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own dogs.
“Danielle continues to be absolutely amazing with our puppy. We are comfortable knowing he is in such good hands with her and would highly recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy dog walker!”
“Anthony has been absolutely wonderful with our young puppy (from 10 to 14 weeks)! He has taught him to walk with manners and helped us with tricks! Our puppy absolutely adores him — we will continue to rebook! Thank you so much, Anthony!”
“Sarah-Jane is a respectful and responsible sitter. I had an impromptu engagement and she was very helpful at such short notice. She took the time to meet YaYa first before the sitting and to get a little familiar with the routine. My dog YaYa loves her and looks forward to the next time Sarah-Jane can watch her. Sarah-Jane also left me a very nice thank you card which was very unexpected.”
“Samantha was so great with our hyperactive nutball German shepherd Remington! We get nervous leaving her with people but she responded so amazingly to Samantha! Very clear that she loves animals and it showed with how happy our pup was!”
“Julian took fantastic care of our cat, Clementine, while we were away. We were a little anxious about leaving our cat overnight for the first time, but Julian met up with me ahead of time to meet Clementine, go over care instructions, and address any concerns I had. The daily updates and photos were detailed and thoughtful and truly put my mind at ease. Julian even did an extra drop-in on very short notice due to our flight back being delayed - truly above and beyond service! I would highly recommend Julian and would absolutely book again in the future.”
“Dalyce is professional and dependable and a very good communicator. Most importantly, she has a great disposition for both my anxious shephard and super mellow senior. Felt very comfortable knowing they were in her care.”
“Chuck did a nice job understanding the needs of my dog. He came over earlier to meet and take notes for the visits. I appreciated the many pictures and thorough updates. I would highly recommend Chuck, especially if you have a larger dog.”
“I’m always thankful that Anna and Jordan can care for my cat when I’m out of town. They send detailed updates and wonderful pictures to let me know he’s doing well. Instructions are closely followed and everything is left clean and tidy when I return.”
“Hana was terrific! The dogs loved her, and she loved them. She was on time every day, fed them according to our instructions, and hung out with them and played with them, which was extra. We will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve had pets since age 6 and have 2 of my own dogs. Love to take care of all kinds of pets. Trying to pursue a veterinary career and gaining more experience with animals would be great. I currently have 4 days of the week off, which make this easier to provide boarding services, and longer days. Work around my own schedule. I have a fenced yard, two dogs and one cat who love to play with other animals. Playtime is a must and dog walks if requested.
“Tegan has walked my dog for the last couple months while I'm at work and she has been so wonderful! She is on time and communicated well. I have a high energy husky and Tegan has done such a great job with her. I couldn't recommend her more!”
“Charlene took exceptional care of my cat Phoebe! I felt at ease, immediately when I met her for the first time. Phoebe loved her. Phoebe was not at all afraid when she walked in and started petting her. She hides sometimes with friends and family. Charlene had an authentic interest in taking care of her. I would not hesitate to call on her again to watch Phoebe! Sheila”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Litchfield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Litchfield choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Litchfield with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
