“Ally was amazing. Duchess can be a little shy around new people but she warmed up to Ally quickly which put me at ease having to leave my pup for so long. Ally was easy to work with, flexible with my schedule, and was always punctual and communicative. She walked, fed, watered, and medicated my dog for a week and I never worried about Duchess being taken care of. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Daijon is amazing. He comes dedicatedly every day to walk our dog! Gives him a good walk too at least a mile every day. He is polite and courteous. Definitely recommend him as a stable dog walker!!”
“Brittany is INCREDIBLE! I have a very energetic, high strung, unneutered shepherd who is not the easiest dog to find a walker for. He absolutely loves Brittany and she goes above and beyond for him constantly. She is experienced with shepherds, reactive dogs, and high energy breeds and I feel very comfortable having her care for my dog. She always goes the extra mile by giving him fresh water, working on training with him to support what I’m working on with him, and is firm but loving with him. She handles him so well and he absolutely adores her. I can’t recommend her enough! Brittany has been walking my dog for months, is consistently reliable, has great availability, and excellent communication. She is so trustworthy and a pleasure to work with!”
About: Avid animal lover my whole life. Always had multiple different types of pets growing up. Currently I am lucky enough to have 3 cats, a mini Australian shepard, and fish! Available part time at the moment in the mornings, evenings, or on my days off from my day job. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby! Your pets are my top priority when they are in my care. I would like to know about any allergies, health issues, or potential risks to your pet that might be in or around your home while they are under my supervision. I will be 100% committed and reliable for keeping your pet happy and safe while you are away.
“Cole has been walking my 2 dogs for a bit over 3 months now and I'm so grateful for him. He's kind and loving to both of my dogs. He's brought them toys in the past, has helped me in last minute requests, and also really took care of my puppy when he got neutered. I highly recommend Cole to take care of your fur babies!”
About: Hi all! My name is Madison and I have many years of experience taking care of dogs and cats. I grew up with dog loving parents and we had two dogs I grew up with. They both crossed the rainbow bridge and it took years for us to recover. After 6 years without a dog, my mom adopted a German Shepherd who I often dog sit when my mom is away. I currently have my own 10 month old Corgi who is full of energy and two sweet cats. On my free time I also volunteer for Protectors of Animals and do the walking shift with the dogs in the shelter. I would love to provide you with the dedication and care that your animals deserve. I would love to do drop in visits or even a few dog walks when needed. Thank you and I hope to care for your animals soon! I am currently working at an elementary school full time as a paraprofessional and I am looking to take this on as part time on weekends or when school has breaks. In my own home, I care for my pets with such a loving manner. I never want any animal to feel like they are uncomfortable with me. If I needed to take things slow with a dog or cat I would love to meet them prior to the owner’s leaving for their vacation or work to see if this is a good fit.
About: A forever-friend of animals and pets of all sizes. Experienced, friendly, reliable and flexible. Looking forward to meeting your pets and providing care and companionship for your loved ones. I am pursuing a degree part-time and have a flexible work schedule. I am centrally located in Middletown, CT and am willing to drive within about an hour of there to provide care. I like connecting with you and your pet before sitting to develop rapport and to get an understanding of their routines. I like to mirror the way you provide a safe environment for them within your home. This offers a sense of consistency and calm in what may sometimes feel like a stress-inducing situation for your animal. Their safety and health are the priority while they are under my care.
About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my whole life! I grew up with a senior dog and cats in their late teens, and then got puppies and kittens that I’ve taken care of for over a decade. I’ve watched pets for friends and family, and while I’m new to professional pet care, I’ll treat yours with the same care I’d treat mine. I can fit pet care into virtually any time of most days. I’m a college student home for the summer, so I’m not very busy! I’m very gentle with my pets, and I like to treat them like a friend rather than another type of entity. I respect their boundaries and comfort, and like to see what would be best for them in any given moment. I’m always respectful of other people’s homes, always respect house rules, and am super careful of others’ property.

My schedule during your sitting will be catered to whatever fits you and your pets needs! Let me know what is needed during an overnight sitting: How often is a potty break? What is your usual routine? How long is your pet family comfortable being alone in the house? Let’s go over their daily schedule and routine and come up with a plan for your pets care! I am happy to accommodate any and all of your pets needs. I know each individual has their own requirements for care and special quirks. I treat all pets under my care as if they are my own. I would be happy to use specific leashes, bowls, food, etc. Please let me know what I can do to make your pet have the most positive experience!

“Nicole is amazing with Cooper! She is very patient, sweet, and understanding of Cooper’s quirks. I can tell Cooper already loves her. Not only is she great with Cooper, but she is fantastic with communicating with me via texts and providing many photos and videos of Cooper during their walks. I highly recommend Nicole to anyone!”
About: I have owned and cared for pots of all types and kinds since I was a child, particularly cats and dogs. As an adult, I have owned three dogs and four cats and deeply enjoy the experience of being a pet parent myself. I have cared for, walked, fed, and watched overnight for many length of days many cats and dogs for my friends, family and professionally. I understand the nuances of what is required for individual pet care and how to follow directions carefully. I'm in excellent communicator and want to ensure that my pet parents that I work for are kept in the loop and feel comfortable with my service! I take special care to ensure that each individual pet is cared for in the way that they need and particularly to ensure that no animal is ever let out without being on the leash or let out at all if they are a cat. I genuinely enjoy playing with cats and dogs and making sure that they get the adequate exercise and stimulation that they need. I look forward to caring for your pet soon! Ps, I am very strong and have experience with walking large dogs, as powerlifting is a hobby of mine in my spare time! Since I work from home part-time, I have lots of flexibility and fluidity to care for someone's pet or meet a need at the last minute. I live in Central Connecticut which is very close to every County and I'm comfortable taking a drive if needed. I have an extremely flexible schedule between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. I would only be providing services in other people's homes to let them out or feed them daily or any kind of walking or playing services. In my own home, I currently have two cats who enjoy free reign of the home. We do also have a fenced in yard fully, but at this time I would not be offering that service in my own home.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Middletown
Caroline is truly amazing! And so good with big dogs. Tripp is always SO EXCITED to see her. I had a family emergency arise and she stepped in with care and attentive communication, allowing me to tend to my family without worrying for my dog. I highly recommend Caroline for your dog needs
Renee was so good with my dog Opal. I needed a walker while I was out of town, as my roommate can handle feedings but can't give Opal the exercise she needs, and Renee was amazing! She was prompt with her responses while booking, and Opal loved her immediately when they met. She gave my dog lots of love & good exercise, and it's clear she really loves dogs & cares a lot about them.
Cole has been with us for almost 3 years! He has been extremely reliable, responsible, communicative, and simple an addition to our family. My little Sami wags her tail so happy and fast as soon as she hears his park on the driveway. We are so happy to have found Cole as he loves our Sami like his own!
We’ve had such a wonderful experience with this dog sitter and walker. She has an incredibly calm, reassuring presence, and my dog absolutely adores her. I was honestly shocked to see my very high-drive pup settle down enough to relax and even nap during a short visit, something that almost never happens. It’s clear she has a special way with dogs and creates a sense of comfort and trust right away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone patient, caring, and truly in tune with their dog’s needs.
Britney is so lovely and kind. She recently started walking my 57 pound dog, Sitka, for an hour twice a week. When she came for a meet and greet she asked a lot of great questions so she could provide the best care for him. He is quite strong (and strong-willed), and I have genuine peace of mind having a Rover who worked as a vet tech and knowing that they can handle my pet. She sends a lot of fun pictures and leaves a detailed note of what they did together that day and how he behaved. She gives him lots of affection, and he is always happy when I get home to him on days she cared for him. If a stressful situation were to arise while he was in her care, I completely trust that she would make the right decision for him. I am confident that he is happy, safe, and getting the exercise he needs when he is in her care. I definitely recommend Britney, she is wonderful and cares about both the pets and the pet parents.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Middletown. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
