“Greg has been super good with communication prior to us booking and was willing to go through any and all questions we had. With our two dogs the requirements couldn’t be more different but he provided great information and we booked. He keeps us in the loop and treated our babies like their own.

You will be more than happy.”

About: I've grown up surrounded by pets—from energetic pups to laid-back cats—and caring for animals has always been second nature. For the past three years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for my family during vacations, making sure their pets are safe, happy, and loved. I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I meet! Working third shift gives me a flexible daytime schedule, which means I’m wide awake and available when most people are at work. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon playtime, or midday check-ins, I have the time and energy to give your pet the attention they deserve. I provide care from my apartment, creating a safe and cozy environment for your pet. I live in a very quiet pet friendly neighborhood. I'm also physically strong, which allows me to confidently handle larger or high-energy dogs while keeping them safe and happy

“Malik and Kolby were so great to my Dexter. They were very communicative with me and sent me pictures everyday. Drop off and pick up was easy and stress free. This was my first time leaving my Dex with anyone other than family but they both made me feel at ease as I was able to meet them and have them meet Dexter a few days before we left on our trip. I would 100% recommend Malik and Kolby to everyone I know that needs to board their dog.”


“I really appreciate Erin keeping Jack. I was able to do a meet and greet prior to his stay and felt comfortable leaving him for multiple days. Erin sent me updates without me having to ask. I would definitely trust to leave him with her again.”


“For my first time ever using Rover, Carli is a great option! She sent lots of photos and multiple updates, which i greatly appreciated! Will definitely be booking with carli again! Loved the experience!”


“Lyndsey took great care of our dog while we were away. She has a great property that she took our dog on many walks on along with a fenced in back yard where our dog could play freely. Our dog came home a worn out pup! Lyndsey also texted daily with updates and pictures. It was the first time we used Rover, and she made it a great experience. We will rebook with her in the future!”


“Erin is very communicative and great with plentiful updates and pictures. She is very attentive to needs and feeding instructions. Great fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run. My dog came back happy and healthy. I would book Erin again.”


About: I hope what the pets owners like is that I am verry responsible and enjoy the company of pets. I have a dogs and a cat which I treat them like family. I will also make sure that they dont feel homesick provinding them with a safe space. Last but not less important I will play with the dogs so they dont get bored or lonely. I enjoy all types of dogs but mostly a puppy or little dogs but can take care of bug dogs. I hope that you will feel okey with letting a family member eith me. I'm currently working part-time. I would have time to take care of the pups and give them lots of love. I'm also available during weekends. I think communication is key. I time to have schedule for them including feeding times and walk time. I also need list of allergies in case I make puppy treats.


“Nancy and her husband have been by far the best dog sitters I have come across on this app. They are so sweet and accommodating. They took my pug in and treated her like one of their own. I always feel perfectly safe and at ease leaving her with them when I go out of town. They send plenty of pictures and updates and she has so much fun with them!”


About: I know your fury friend is a member of the family and how they need the love and attention like our children do. I have been caring for amimals for 3 years. I have my own fury friend who just turned 10. From potty breaks to treats, walks and play time. I know each fury friend is different and you as pet parents expect that your friend will be treated as speical as they are. I know how to deal with the old friend who walks once a day to our young friend who needs to burn energy every couple hours. My schedule is flexible Mon-Fri. Your best friend will be cared for and excited when they are with me! How spoiled they will get.

About: Hi I am Stephanie. I am a life long dog owner and lover of all animals. I currently have a Cavapoo named Sophie who is my little ball of attitude. I have experience with all kinds of dogs, labs, cocker spaniel, doodles, German shepherds,and French Bulldogs. I am willing to watch in your home as my girl isn't fond of guests. I work full time but depending on the area of town I am available for midday walks and care as well more and evening. I would love to provide amazing care for your pup while you enjoy a relaxing vacation or are out of town for any reason. I currently work full time on the north side of town but am located in New Haven in. I get 1 hr for lunch and if you are located huntertown or in this area I can definitely do midday walks and cuddles. Walks, let on lead, electric fence or anyway you prefer your pets to do their business. Feeding, playing and of course cuddles to begin and end the day.

Stephanie S.
“We had Stephanie care for our two frenchie puppies while we were in a 12 day vacation. We had never been away from our pups for more than a night, so I was very nervous to have them stay in another persons home. We found Stephanie and she came to live in, house sit as well as dog sit for us. She was phenomenal!! She took care of our girls like they were her own, as well as maintained our home. We struggled with getting the pups fully housebroke and when we returned they were! She kept them on a schedule, checked in with us twice a day and sent pictures. I would highly recommend her to watch your fur babies, you won’t regret it!!”
