“Angela is the best. This is our second dog she has spent time with. She not only takes care of the walks, but also spends time with our dog as well. It’s great to know we have someone so great who we can trust to go above and beyond to make our puppy feel loved when we can’t be there.”
About: Growing up surrounded by pets, I’ve been an animal lover since I was little! My experience includes feeding and caring for dogs and cats, animal enrichment through play and exercise, administering medications, and keeping a clean environment. As a pet parent myself, I understand every animal has individual needs and will make sure your pet is well cared for! I have a flexible schedule, and I’m able to provide animal care frequently. I am happy to work with each pets specific routine and schedule. I would follow the instructions the owner left and keep each pet’s routine as consistent as possible while treating the home and pet with respectful care.
“Elizabeth is a wonderful dog walker! I'm very happy with her, and so is my dog! She is always on time, patient with my dog, Ivy, and doesn't let her eat grass! Ivy has gotten to know the sound of Elizabeth's car and starts getting excited to see her before she even gets the car parked! I've booked Elizabeth for another week!”
About: I've been with and around pets since I was 14. I am a reliable resource to pet, play, feed, and walk neighbors' and friends animals for lots of time. I don't personally have any pets myself, but I often have dogs come stay with us and go visit other people's pets. I'm used to a dog running around and everyday responsibilities of having a pet/ I care for pets in my home or clients' home with the knowledge of what the dog is allowed and not allowed to do, what boundaries the home has, and the animal's safety at the front of my mind at all times.
About: Iv had animals my whole life, from dogs, cats, turtles, birds and ferrets and have loved and cared for each and everyone of them. Iv worked at a dog daycare/pet hotel, done in house dog sitting and currently work in a vet office. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, strengths and personalities and would love to care for your pets!! I work full time but am available for early morning and night time visits and walks. I’m off Saturdays, Sundays and Tuesdays so am available all day those days. I may be open to over nights, depending on my schedule and how far they are from me. I’m unable to do pet sitting in my own home as I have a few of my own. I will gladly care for your pets in your own home!!
“We just had our second meet-and-greet with Kim, and we are already impressed! She was very professional, punctual and took the time to ask questions about Duke’s routine and personality. You can tell Kim loves animals and Duke warmed up instantly. We feel completely confident in booking with Kim again for our future dog walking needs and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet caregiver!”
About: I am new to Rover. Ask me about my specials/Discounts for new clients! My Calendar is confirmed through the end of September and my availability from October on is currently tentative. Hi, my name is Kristina! I know leaving your pet home alone can be a very stressful time for you and your pet. Knowing your pet is in good hands while you're away is important to ease your mind and ensure your pets health and safety. Here is a little background information regarding my experience in the pet care industry to help reduce the stress of leaving your pet. As a child I was raised with a household of pets from dogs to cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, turtles and fish and more! I am currently a dog mom to a Chihuahua/Miniature Pinscher Mix name Charlotte who has a history of separation anxiety. Outside of my personal household, I have over 15 years' experience as a private pet sitter for dogs and cats as well as a dog walker. I have over 5 years' experience in a dog and cat boarding and training facility. I have experience with horses as a rider, farm hand and lead (line) trainer. I have worked with elderly, animals with medical needs and blind and deaf animals. I am a Pediatric Nurse and looking to supplement my income. I may have minimal availability for early morning and late nights. Please ask if you have any questions about my availability. I am available for drop ins and walks. I am available for early mornings (as early as 0500) or after hours. If you do not see availability for certain dates, please reach out to me with special requests. I am currently working as a nurse and frequently have availability during the week and some weekends. Leaving your pet can be stressful! I have experience with separation anxiety and will do my best to accommodate your pets needs while you are away. If your pet needs extra treats, has a favorite TV show or music they like, let me know! I will care for your pet like they are my own. I offer walks, drop ins, playtime and scratches and more! Anything your pet needs! You will receive a photo of your pet during this time!
“Caroline is very responsive and professional. My senior pup loved walking with her in the morning. Honestly she is a godsend. I had major surgery and can not walk my dog for a while, she was able to step up and help right away. I feel like my pup is in good hands with Caroline.”
About: I had a dog as a child. I have had dogs for over 35 years. They are great company and a great addition to any family. I am retired. My time would be totally devoted to spending time with your pet(s). I look forward to giving you the comfort that your pets are well-cared for while you are not home. My pets at home are pretty spoiled. They are not crated and we play inside and outside. Whatever the owners require is what I will do. Unfortunately, my most recent dog died of cancer. I miss her; but look forward to taking good care of other people’s pets.
“Kate was awesome with Shep! He is a 63 lb aussie and he is highly energetic and picky about walkers but he took to Kate right away. She followed all my directions was always on time and ready to go.”
About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, fish since I can remember, have loved every moment! Would love to help take care of your special family member ❤️ I'm currently devoting my time to pet care, there will be plenty of time for walks and play Monday through Friday, some Saturdays. Possibly Sundays I walk any size dog, spend time in your home to have play time, grooming time. With cats I would feed, clean box and love them
About: What sets me apart is my extensive experience with both energetic puppies and gentle senior pets. I am highly attentive to strict medication schedules, dietary needs, and behavioral training. I treat every animal with the patience, love, and dedicated care they truly deserve. I am currently starting my own art business so I will have plenty of time to take breaks and care for your dogs in any way. I have a dog—a Maltipoo named Sally. I also have experience caring for friends' and neighbors' pets while they were away on vacations and trips. When sitting, I strictly follow the owner's routine for feeding, walking, and playtime to ensure the pets feel safe and comfortable.
“Claire was amazing to work with - when I sent in a last minute request for dog walking, she was quick to respond and easy to communicate with. She sent a photo after the walk and made sure to give us a status update which was much appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“Reached out to Amy as I had recently gotten a puppy and then got RTO’ed. Daisy is/was a bad leash puller and Amy was very patient. By the end of the first week I was actually able to walk Daisy around the neighborhood without being totally stressed and frazzled at the end. Thank you Amy!!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - New Britain
Elizabeth was great with our dog Nikki. She initially visited prior to our trip to get the lay of the house and meet our dog. She shared her experiences and we felt comfortable. She always kept in communication while we were traveling and sent us pictures throughout. This is was our first experience using rover and we are very happy. Thank you Elizabeth!
Elizabeth was really sweet! She showed up when she said she would, her communication was great, she coordinated my dog walk with my mother, and was really good with my dog Kobi. Overall it was an excellent experience and I will be using Elizabeth for future dog walking. I highly recommend her!
Ian really is a treasure! My partner had an emergency hip replacement so we're using Ian for daily walks with our biggest dog for 3 months (and maybe more). Our Finn is a giant dog (over 105 pounds and dog reactive) and Finn loves Ian. She starts checking for him a couple of hours before her walk time and then squirms with crazed excitement when he pulls in the driveway I cannot recommend Ian highly enough. Thank you Ian!
Emily was absolutely amazing from the first meet and greet to our last walks with her! She’s very attentive and truly listens and understands the individual dog’s needs. She provides wonderful picture updates where I can see how happy Nubbs truly was during his time with her. I was completely at ease knowing my dog was in such great hands and he was being cared for as if he was her own. So glad to have found Emily and would hire her again anytime!

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 New Britain. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
