“Brie is an animal pro! My dog, Cora, loves her and Brie has been a Godsend for me as I continue my rehab. Cora loves her walks with Brie, and will actually wait at the door when I tell her she is coming to get her. Thx Brie!”

About: I have 9 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. What sets me apart is my calm, reliable approach and genuine love for animals. I’m experienced with senior pet care, including administering medication and helping with mobility, and I’m also skilled at working with puppies helping to burn off energy with play. I treat every pet like family and focus on keeping them safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm an online college student, which gives me a very flexible schedule and lots of free time throughout the day. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I love being able to take breaks from studying to spend time with animals, whether it’s for walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. I’m available on weekdays and weekends and can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I take pet safety and comfort seriously, whether in my home or a client’s. At my home, I have a secure fenced in yard for safe outdoor play and plenty of space indoors for pets to relax. I also have extra crates and cages available if needed for comfort, training, or quiet time. I have two friendly, well behaved dogs who love the company of other pets, but I always introduce new pets carefully to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. Whether your pet stays with me or I come to you, I create a calm, clean, and loving environment where they can feel at home.

“Brian was fantastic - very responsive and related great with our dogs. We’re very particular about who we entrust with looking after our fur babies and couldn’t have asked for a better fit. Would definitely recommend Brian to anyone that’s looking for someone to treat their pet like his own.”

About: I've had a house full of pets since I was born. We always had at least 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 turtles, and other pets in the house. Chance was my main pet (pitbull) who I personally trained and took care of from the age of 10 until I left for college. I now have a chihuahua named Taako and a fluffy cat named Magnus that I take care of. I've also helped watch cats and dogs of family and friends. I also spend my free time volunteering at Lake Humane Society. I have experience in reading cat temperment (don't want to get bit in a shelter!) and training dogs. I work full time 9-5 during the week from home but I can help during a lunch break, after work any time, or on weekends! I will work to whatever your comfort level is for your pets! My chihuahua is distrustful of strangers so I entirely understand if your animals need some time to warm up to me.

About: I’ve helped out with family pets my entire life (dogs, cats fish, guinea pigs, birds, rats) but in my early 20’s rescued a Doberman/blue heeler mix on my own. He is high anxiety and medicated twice daily for epileptic seizures, so medicine is also something I’m comfortable with. I also now have a Maine coon cat who is 10, a 3 yr old shepherd, cane corso, mastiff mix with 3 paws and a 3 yr old golden/ Pyrenees mix. I work daytime hours MWF, so I’m available for drop ins before and/or after work on those days. On T/TH, I’m available for drop ins or walks during the morning and afternoons :) For the care and safety of both the clients pets and my own, I would prefer to care for clients pets in their own homes.

About: For my entire life, I have grown up with a dog in my family home. I have experienced first hand how to care for a 2 month old puppy and a 13 year old senior dog. Since the age of 16, I have also watched family friends dogs, either doing overnight stays or routinely check-ins with the dogs. As a graduate student, I have classes on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. On those days, your pup may be home for a few hours while I’m in class, but I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and potty breaks before I leave and as soon as I return. Outside of my class schedule, I have a flexible routine and spend most of my time at home, so I’ll be able to provide lots of companionship, playtime, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow all of your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any other special care your pet needs. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel the most comfortable. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I love cleaning and doing daily chores, so that will never be a problem for me! I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. My priority is making sure both you and your pet have peace of mind.

About: I am over the top when it comes to animals. I typically go above and beyond in play and in care. I love to groom them, go hiking or on extended walks and cuddle! I am currently a nursing student who is trying to make extra money so I can stop working during clinicals. Also I have a small child that I could always use extra money for! In my home pets will be in a shared space with toys and activities. I will walk pets every 4-6 hours and will groom both cats and dogs if i see fit (not full groom but wipe eyes, paws, etc) I also enjoy going to the park so if possible i would love to take them to a park near your home or my own

About: Hi! My name is Jenna, and my family and I are here to give your beloved furry friends the care and attention they deserve! With a lifelong passions for animals, I am here to ensure your pet's well-being and hapiness. Since I was a child, I never met an animal I didn't love. From caring for family pets to volunteering at local animal shelters, my love for our four-legged companions has only grown stronger over the years. My journey with animals has taken me through various roles, including working in veterinary offices, animal shelters, and pet shops. These experiences have equipped me with invaluable skills and knowledge in animal care, health, and behavior. I work at home fulltime, so I am available to give your pet plenty of attention. My husband works a hybrid job. We have two school aged children who have grown up with animals and are very knowledgeable about when to give pets their space, and when to engage in play. We have a large home with the ability to give your pet quiet space alone if needed, and plenty of indoor room for play when they want attention. We have a large unfenced backyard. My husband and I both go on morning and evening walks, and have lots of time to give your pet exercise as needed. Currently, I share my home with Subi, a big-hearted cat who has never met a stranger. He brings endless joy to my life with his playful antics and affectionate purrs. He does well with all other pets, but we do have the ability to keep him separated if your pet requires us to do so. I understand that every pet is unique and deserves personalized care. Whether it's daily walks, feeding, grooming, or simply providing companionship while you're away, rest assured that your furry family members are in loving and capable hands. I am committed to providing reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate pet sitting services, giving you peace of mind knowing that your pets are safe, happy, and well-cared for in the comfort of their own home. Thank you for entrusting me with the care of your cherished pets. I look forward to building lasting relationships with both you and your furry companions! I currently work from home with a lot of flexibility to spend time taking care of your pets. Let's discuss your scheduling needs- we can work out something that will fit around your schedule. I have a large house with plenty of space for playtime. I also have a large yard (unfenced). We also have a great neighborhood for walks!

About: I’ve been puppy raising my entire life. I can understand dogs & their body language well. I know what they need before they need it! Friends, family and coworkers come to me for play dates, dog walking, simple training questions, boarding, pet sitting & drop in visits for when they can’t always take their pet along with them. I am currently completing a certification in dog training, nutrition & behavior. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles & birds. I live pet care. I am currently available on weekends & mornings. Looking to cut back to part time soon to have more time to explore my passions. In my home they would be taken out on a long line if not on a walk. We would do stimulating mental games throughout the time spent when we are inside along with down time on their own raised bed. Inside tethering if needed. In a clients home we follow all care instructions provided. I work remotely so my schedule is pretty flexible as far as boarding, walks & daycare goes. My schedule is completely accommodating to your pets needs. I am certified in Pet CPR & first aid. Your pets safety is most important & & I strive to do everything to preserve that.

I am a big fan of enrichment activities and learning what motivates your dog.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 2,092 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across New Haven. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Haven. 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.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in New Haven after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in New Haven. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

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.
