“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!”
“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 is a great sitter, clearly loves what she does and treats your pet as her own. She’s kind and conscientious and was more than happy to help us out in a tight spot. I’d certainly recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter/walker. She’s great.”
About: I have may years of experience caring for dogs. During each visit, each dog will receive some play time and a walk. I will be able to care for senior dogs with ease. Currently, I work part time, so I have lots of time to give each pet the time that is required to keep them happy and safe. While visiting with each pet, I will make sure that the pet has food, water, and play time. I will also make sure that their house is safe until their person comes home.
About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals. I’ve had 1 bird, 1 ferret, 5 cats, and 6 dogs. I’ve trained 2 Dogs to obey basic commands and good potty habits. Im available for boarding on Fridays through Sundays. I work from home on Friday and I don’t work the weekends at all. I can also be flexible during week days as needed. I take my dogs for walks every 3 hours or at their request. We play fetch and tug-o-war in my backyard. My basement is a complete doggy daycare.
About: I have been handling and training dogs at daycares, puppy and adult day schools, and pet stores for over a decade, and I’m currently working on my certification through the Karen Pryor Academy for professional dog trainers. I prioritize safety and the use of positive reinforcement to keep dogs physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy, and I particularly enjoy helping fearful dogs become more calm and confident with clicker training. Right now I’m in the process of writing a business plan for my own company, so my availability is wide open for the time being. I am gentle, but firm and consistent. I use treats and other rewards paired with a marker to reinforce and shape the behaviors I want, and will use ‘time outs” to enforce necessary boundaries. Your dog will not pull me or get away with problem behaviors, but I also make sure not to be scary and to spend more time rewarding them when they do well. My home now has a large area with a 4ft chain link fence and a smaller potty area with a 6 ft stockade fence that exits from the basement for jumpers, puppies, and reactive dogs. I’m 20 yards away from a system of trails that I can use to hike dogs, as well as being in a neighborhood that can be used to work on distractions.
About: With 30+ years of hands-on experience caring for my own cats and dog, along with pet sitting for friends and family, I provide reliable, loving care for pets of all kinds. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or special attention, I treat every pet like my own! Need a sitter on short notice? I’m here to help. With a completely flexible schedule, I’m available for pet sitting whenever you need whether it’s daily visits, or last-minute requests. I will provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every pet in my care because your pets deserve the best while you are away!
About: Hi, I’m Caroline! I’ve had the joy of owning several dogs, and my friends often trust me to care for theirs when they’re away. I’m patient, energetic, and absolutely love going on long walks. Originally from Massachusetts, I now spend most of my time in Connecticut. When your dog is with me, you can be sure they’ll get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I enjoy visiting parks, walking paths, and trails, and I’m happy to match any dog’s energy level—whether they love staying active or prefer some cozy cuddle time. I’m here to provide loving care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and even light cleaning if needed. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’d love the chance to spend quality time with yours! During the week, I have a lot of flexibility working remote so I can be around in the mornings, afternoons or evenings. Additionally, on the weekends I am almost always available! I will treat your home as if it was mine. I am clean and professional and will follow any instructions provided for your dogs needs.
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.
“Candice is so great with our high energy Aussie pup ZZ. I love that she constantly works on reinforcing positive behaviors with ZZ along their walks. Her professionalism and flexibility in scheduling is much appreciated as well. Candice is definitely our go-to walker!”
About: I have taken care of pets ranging from ferrets to cats and dogs. I’ve done overnights at friends and family’s homes and have hosted dogs and cats for a few days to a couple weeks. I currently foster dogs through East Coast Canine Rescue. I’ve fostered 9 week old puppies and adult dogs up to 65 lbs. I can work with your dog on leash training and other manners on our walks. I use positive reinforcement and strong communication skills to make for a fun and relaxing walk or playtime for your dog. I also love cats and would be happy to take care of your cat as well! I am a high school math teacher and am home off and on during the weekend and summer and almost every week day after 3 pm during the school year. I am open to caring for dogs with all types of needs and am very active. I pretty much love dogs more than humans and can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I am a teacher so I am very available on days and weekends in the summer. I am an early riser and could stop by mornings, afternoons, or evenings. I have a five year old dog, Pria, who I leash walk 2 times a day and play with in the yard using an e-collar. I also attend the dog park to help socialize her. She is very friendly and I am also happy to socialize your dog with Pria as well and train them to leash walk together if interested!
“My dogs love Doreen. She is wonderful with them. She is so patient, Macy can be a little challenging when meeting new people, and takes her a long time to warm up, but it only took a few minutes. That right there speaks volumes. I highly recommend Doreen and will use her again soon.”
“Emily is great! Our dog is always so happy to see her, and it’s been so nice having a reliable dog walker for those unanticipated days. Our go to person when plans change and we need a last minute walker”
“Marissa did a wonderful job walking our dog of us last week. She was very courteous and worked around our schedule to do a meet and greet. She consistently shows up on time, and takes our pup for a nice long walk! We will definitely will use her again!”

Montville Center dog parents share their Rover experiences
Always lovely to have her help take care of my dog! Super sweet and keeps me updated on how he’s doing. She goes above and beyond to make sure he is comfortable and well taken care of even though he is a super shy guy. Helped me when I needed to extend my trip another day as well. Will always come back to her for help when I am out of town. I am very thankful for Tina :)
