“Dajah, kept me informed and sent pics of my big guy. I am always nervous leaving him somewhere but I felt reassured that he would be fine before I walked out and left him. I loved that my big guy was around other dogs as well and had fun. I would definitely go back to Dajah. She is highly recommended.”
“Robin is amazing! Our cat has health issues and needs medication so he stays with Robin while we are away. She is so kind and flexible, making it very easy to relax while we are away from him. I cannot recommend her enough!”
“Very reliable, communicative, and clearly loves dogs. I got regular updates and photos, and my pup was happy and well cared for. I’d definitely book again and highly recommended!!!!”

“My dog had a fantastic time at Jodie’s — her dogs were very friendly and he fit in immediately, and he definitely had a great time playing with them because he slept hard when he got home! He’s a rescue and can be a little touchy sometimes, but when I picked him up he was snuggled up in Jodie’s arms like she was his new best friend.”

“Ashley and her family were absolutely wonderful! They sent lots of great pictures and updates and were so sweet to our pup. Wish we lived closer, we would send him there more! But will be sure to go back when we are nearby again.”
“Laurie was fantastic with our dog Honey! Honey spent almost a week with her and she kept me updated with daily updates and pictures. Honey was even allowed to sleep on furniture and in bed with Laurie, which made her feel relaxed and comfortable, just like at home. Laurie even dropped Honey off to us on the morning of pick up, since we were in the direction she was headed for the day. Couldn’t ask for more! Your dog will love staying with Laurie!”
About: My name is Katiana Thoby and I have been dog sitting since 2017. I am able to watch your cute pets any time of the week (unless the day is marked off)! You will love my patience, kindness, and affection towards the dog. I've watched my friends' dogs before and learned how to work with them and take care of them properly. I enjoyed playing some games like fetch and running around with them. Since my parents don't like animals, I can't have my own dog. When I have my own house, I want a dog of my own so this will be a good experience for me. Thank you and I hope to work with you soon.. I am currently working full time so I will be available to dog sit on the weekends or tuesdays after 5:30pm! Just let me know in advance and I can open a booking for you. I will be available on some holidays but I will let you know in advance! Please make sure to book at least two days in advance. That way, I can make sure I don’t have any other appointments that day. I may accommodate some last minute bookings if I am available the whole stay period. Most of the time, they stay indoors and I attend to them as much as possible! They will be fed on the times provided and well taken care of! If you would like me to provide a bath as well, please let me know. I love playing with them so I usually bring your pets to the park as long as the owner is okay with it (also provides a leash)!
“Theresa and her family were wonderful hosts for Oliver! They welcomed him into their home over Thanksgiving at the last minute and treated him as if he was their own dog. She kept me updated throughout his stay and I never had to worry how he was doing. I wish every dog sitter was as good as Theresa and her family. Thank you so much!”

“Catherine was so sweet with my dog. She kept up with her energy and gave her lots of swims/walks on the beach. There was such a calm energy in the house. Daisy felt right at home 🩷”
About: There really isn’t anything that sets me apart from other sitters. Since I was young I grew up watching my dog, taking care of my dog, training him to be a good sprit. I’m very good with animals and love dogs with my life I currently don’t have a job, but I am seeking one. But in the meantime I would be available everyday to dog sit until a certain point in time where I find my job I can easily mind the animal. we will have a lot of things to do and won’t be bored. Constantly making sure the animal is fed, walked, played with etc

Andrew provided exceptional care for my toy poodle. He sent updates with photos throughout the day. My only concern relates to food, as my dog does not typically eat human food as a very small 5 pound dog but was fed some human food. It’s best not to give dogs food other than what is provided as some dogs have sensitive digestive systems. Otherwise, excellent care!
Goose had such a fantastic weekend with Lacy!! It was his first time spending more than one night away from home, and she made him feel so welcome and comfortable. We were blown away by her attention to detail and all of the fun activities she planned for him & included him in. We were 100% confident that Goose was safe and happy the entire time we were away, and we would book another stay with Lacy in a heartbeat!
They did doggy day care for my two pups four days in a row while I was out of town and the girls loved it. Got plenty of pics of the girls cuddling with their kids and going for walks. After the first day, they would run up the steps super excited to go in when they realized where they were!
Thank you so much for taking such great care of our furry family member! We really appreciated the daily photo updates—they gave us peace of mind and made us smile while we were away. I’m sorry the nights weren’t perfect, but we truly appreciate all of your patience and care. We will definitely be reaching out to you again for our future pet care needs. Thank you again for everything!
Yi Jia has been so great with Moxi. We had just moved here and feel really lucky we found her. She always makes sure Moxi is comfortable when we drop her off, and Moxi gets so excited every time she sees her. We can tell she loves hanging out at Yi Jia’s house. She’s also super responsive and sends us updates, which we really appreciate. One time we had a last minute emergency and needed Moxi to stay an extra day, and Yi Jia was so kind and flexible about it. It’s really nice knowing Moxi is happy and in good hands with her.
I highly recommend Ariana! I had to book a sitter for my senior dog almost last minute and found Ariana. We met before I went away and liked her immediately. My dog is mostly blind and deaf and Ariana assured me she’s taken care of senior dogs before. Ariana did a great job with her. I received morning and evening updates along with pictures and videos. I’m very glad Ariana took care of her, she did a great job! I would definitely use Ariana again. Thanks!
Nicholas and Mary Ellen were more than wonderful! Right from our initial meeting them both we knew we'd have a great experience with them! They were very attentive with our dog at the meet and great, and so very understanding of our dog's needs. We were at ease right away. And our dog took to them and their home immediately...she just seemed very comfortable with them and in their home. By the end of the meet and great we knew this would be a great match, and we felt confident leaving our dog with them. (We have a senior dog with some special needs who we adopted 2 years ago, and we're always a little nervous leaving her hoping she doesn't think she's been left again.) Upon picking up our dog we could tell she had been both well loved and well taken care of, and we felt that Nicholas and Mary Ellen really enjoyed their time with our dog. We will most definitely use Nicholas and Mary Ellen again!
It was my first time using Rover and I was so nervous about leaving my two dogs with someone new, especially over night! Our Meet & Greet with Amanda put my worries to rest right away! I was confident they would be cared for. She sent me lots of photos & videos throughout their stay and my girls were very happy there. I will definitely be reaching out next time I need someone to watch my dogs!
Alexis was the best cat sitter I could have asked for for our cat, Bella. Our cat stayed at Alexis’ home while we were on vacation and it was the best decision. Alexis sent frequent updates and pictures with what Bella was up to often with clever descriptions. She provided her with love and care and even let our cat cuddle with her at night. Her house was clean, comfortable and our cat absolutely loved her stay.Alexis was overall a pleasure to work with, communicative, flexible, responsible and very warm and positive. Definitely recommend Alexis for cat boarding and any pet sitting services. You will be in good hands.
Connor did an AMAZING job with my pup, Harley. He was very professional, showed me around his place during the meet-n-greet, and then was attentive and kind during the stay, ensuring I got regular updates and pictures. Harley (my pup) enjoyed herself too! I absolutely will rebook with him in the future.

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 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 sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
