About: I have had dogs and cats all my life. I currently have a friendly corgi and I will treat your pet like my other pets: as a valued member of our family. I am home full-time and am always available for your pet's needs such as going for a walk or visiting a dog park to play and run free. My schedule is very flexible and I am available anytime for visits or walking/playing. I will ensure your pet stays on a routine without any disruption. I have a friendly corgi at home and your pet is free to roam our house. I generally maintain a dog-friendly home and provide a safe and caring environment for all pets. I can work with any routine a customer has for their own pet.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. I take the time to learn their individual personality, routines, and needs rather than treating every pet the same. I’m patient, attentive, comfortable with both cats and dogs, and experienced with keeping pets on their usual feeding, play, and potty schedules. My goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I work part-time, typically between 10 AM and 6 PM, which gives me flexibility before and after work for pet care. I’m able to plan visits around my work schedule and provide consistency. In my home I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel at home. For dogs, I have a fenced in backyard where they can safely play, run around, and get some fresh air. For cats, I have a cat tree, cat beds, and plenty of toys for enrichment and stimulation. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual routine and care instructions as closely as possible, making sure they feel comfortable and secure in their own space.
“Robin watched my two wily chihuahuas over a long wknd and they returned home perfectly pooped out and happy. One dog is shy, the other active, but she was great at meeting both where they need it. Will def use Robin again!”
“The Best. She sent me photos throughout the day, updated me on activities, has an amazing attitude and my doggo came back grinning from ear to ear after a 2 night stay. Destiny will now be my go to for dog care. Can’t recommend enough.”
“Charlotte was amazing with our shih tzu, Noodle, and really came through for us when we had a last minute weekend getaway and needed a dogsitter. She was super communicative, responsive and easy to coordinate drop off/pick up with. Will definitely book her in the future!”
“We always feel confident leaving our pup with Tatiana. She is attentive, and provides us with the best pictures and updates. During Ricky’s most recent stay with Tatiana, she methodically introduced him to her puppy. Ricky is a very smart and loving dog, but being a rescued pup, he has trauma and sometimes some unpredictable behaviors. She handles this with confidence and care. He had a great time!”
“The good reviews were true. Suki is a bit anxious but settle in with Michal quickly and seemed happy. Suki did not hide the way she usually does. Suki enjoyed Michal's dog as a playmate. She was regularly walked and attended to, as someone was usually home. Michal sent me photos every day of my trip and a video of my pup playing fetch. I would use Michal again.”
“My mom's puppy was in her arms looking very happy! We received updates which was wonderful She was very accommodating and we hope she's available again because it was our puppy's first time away and Anne made this experience easy”
About: I grew up with a German Shepherd, so I’m familiar with the care, attention, and patience that dogs need. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping dogs on their usual routine. I’m responsible, attentive, and will make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is fairly flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I can work with your pet’s routine for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins, and I’m happy to communicate with you throughout the stay so you know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet and home with care, respect, and responsibility. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routines and any specific instructions you provide, while making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. I’ll also keep your home clean and secure and communicate with you regularly so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands.
“Claudia was truly wonderful with our little guy. We have been fortunate to have found nearly uniformly good people to board our dog, but Claudia was truly stellar. We are completely comfortable having Claudia care for our little guy and look forward to having Claudia care for him. He was right at home and happy.”
“Anner was amazing! He made me feel so comfortable by checking in with me and sending photos of Lucy. She seemed calm and at ease at both pick up and drop off. Have already rebooked! Thank you, Anner!”
“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!!!!”
“Madalyn and Charles were the loving family we needed to watch our beloved Boomer while we were away for 2 weeks. They not only sent regular updates, but also made Boomer apart of their family, giving him the love and affection he needed while we were away. Plan to book again in the future.”
“Tara is a great care giver for my dog, a large lan. She has a a dog equipped home and a fenced in back yard. She’s cheerful, accommodating, and provided healthy snacks. She and her husband took her for walks multiple times per day. Totally trustworthy and communicative. Best Rover find ever!”
“Kiayla did an incredible job taking care of our cat Lychee during the two weeks we were traveling abroad. Lychee had a stress related accident in the car just as we dropping him off at her place but Kiayla took it in stride and let us use her bathroom to give him a bath immediately. She was patient with him when he had another accident the next day and responsive over messages as we were trying to figure out what to do. Thankfully that was the worst of it and Lychee settled right in after that and made himself right at home! When I went to pick him up two weeks later he looked so happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. Very grateful to Kiayla for the love and care she has given our kitty - would highly recommend her to anyone else looking to board their pets!!”
About: Hi!! My name is Kimberly and I love your pets the same way I do to mine. I have a 6-year-old Pomeranian named Ozzie. I live in Shelton CT which has many different walking trains. The beach is where I like to walk the most. My availability is every day after 12:00 but my schedule is very flexible. I'm mainly at home during my free time so your dog or cat wouldn't be left alone, I also have all holidays off. If you are on a trip or planning one this summer, I work a part-time job from 6 a.m. to 12 p.m. In the summer, I spend most of my downtime on my deck outside. I'd love to meet and watch your dogs and cats! I hope to hear back from you! :) I am available on Weekdays and weekends for boarding! On workdays, I normally leave at about six in the morning and return around 12 in the afternoon. I have a camera in the house that I can use to keep an eye on them during that time.!! I want to make your pets just as comfortable at my home so they feel welcomed and safe! They can sleep where ever they are most comfortable.

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!
We were looking for a new pet sitter after our previous one moved out of town. Gaileen’s calm and friendly personality and her excellent care for our dog during a recent trial stay has put my worries to rest. She sent regular updates, followed my dog’s routine, and was super easy to communicate with. We will definitely be boarding with her again in the future.
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!
Andrew took wonderful care of our dog, Richie. He was incredibly kind, attentive, and made sure Richie felt comfortable and happy throughout the day. We received lots of photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind and showed how much fun Richie was having. It was clear that Richie had a stress-free, enjoyable day filled with attention, playtime, and care. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. We would be happy to leave our dog with him again!
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.

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 .
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.

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.
