“Courtney is an absolutely wonderful, trustworthy, caring cat-sitter. I feel incredibly lucky to have found her and to continue working with her as my periodic sitter. She has a lovely presence and a calming energy that my cats absolutely gravitate to--she immediately gained their trust and mine. Courtney is responsive and communicative, which really sets me at ease--especially when I've needed to take longer trips away from my two cats. I cannot recommend her more highly!”

About: I am the go-to pet sitter for my friends and families dogs whenever they are out of town. I love each of them like they're my own. I thoroughly enjoy walking and being outside! I work full time in Yale University's IT department. I work from home most days, so I'm available for lunch time walks/check ins (anywhere from 11-2). I am then also available in the evenings after 4pm. On weekends I can be flexible! In a client's home, I make sure to follow all instructions provided. I will keep things clean and organize as needed. I cannot have animals in my apartment.
“Sandra was great!! My boy Logan is super skeptical with new people and it takes a little while for him to warm up, but she took her time with him and made him feel comfortable enough for their walk. I will definitely be reaching out to her in future! ☺️”

About: I've cared for cats all my life. And have had a dog for over 12 years. Also cared for several dogs at once for family so am very familiar with dog language, am less but still very cat fluent as well. My schedule is very fluent albeit a lil unorganized. But I'm relatively free every day, don't work a regular job for that many hours. Would love to fill more of my time with some furry friends. I keep my pet care to a schedule. I ensure that care is evenly distributed between each of the pets as well as managing home care as well!
“Anne-Marie is wonderful. My cat can be a little cautious when she meets new people, but at first sight, she walked right up to her asking for pets. She was on time every day and provided a variety of pictures to let me know my cat was in good hands. Would highly recommend!”

About: Hi, I'm Kait! Growing up, my family always had at least two dogs in our house at all times. I have experience in everything from medication administering, daily dog walks and overnight stays while owners are out of town, to feeding goats and collecting peacock eggs. I can guarantee that I will love and care for your furry friend(s) as if they were my own! PLEASE NOTE: I work full time M-F from 9-5. I'm always available after 6pm. I'm available Saturday/Sunday any time! My work schedule *sometimes* varies week to week, so please ask me about my schedule before booking! I am also available July 4 :) I can only care for pets at your own home. I have experience with both staying overnight with pets and making visits throughout the day, so I can provide pet care any way you prefer! I know how difficult it can be to leave pets, so I try my best to ensure your pets will be as comfortable as they can be. (& please know that NO request is too much or weird for me- I have read dogs books before bed and tucked them in, per owners' request!)
“Tyler is fantastic! Super caretaking for my cat over a whole week of meals, medications - lots of attention to detail. A very caring, attentive presence that my normally shy cat really responded to.”

“We could not be happier with Kacie! She took care of our Maine Coon for a little over a week and did a phenomenal job. We felt completely at ease knowing our guy was being so well taken care of! And from the looks of things, he was a very happy camper as well! Kacie is responsible, kind, compassionate, caring and extremely attentive. Not to mention, incredibly flexible also. We would highly recommend Kacie for your pet’s needs and will also most definitely be using Kacie again for ours!!”

“Lauren is always reliable! She’s is quick to message back and shows up on time! One of my dogs has an issue with reactivity and Lauren was willing to meet her ahead of time to make sure they would get along and they did! My dogs love her now and are very excited when she comes to let them out.”

About: What sets me apart is my professional medical animal care experience and genuine love for pets. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician assistant with dogs, cats, and horses, and I am currently studying for my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree. I provide patient, reliable, loving care and treat every pet like family while prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness. Pet care fits well into my current routine. I am a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine student, and I am currently on summer break. I also work a part-time job and have a couple of clinical rotations lined up, but overall my schedule is quite flexible. This allows me to dedicate consistent, attentive time to pet care and adjust to the specific needs and routines of each pet. I prioritize reliability and making sure every pet receives the care, attention, and consistency they need while their family is away. I provide care in my client’s home, where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s established routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I am attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I make sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for while their family is away. Because I am a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine student, I am comfortable caring for pets with a range of needs and can recognize when something seems off. I also make sure to keep the home clean, secure, and respected, and I provide regular updates so owners feel confident and connected while they’re gone.
“Gabriela was wonderful with drop in visits for our dogs during recent travel. I felt comfortable knowing the dogs were well cared for by someone who was kind and understanding of their particular needs.”

“Aniya was wonderful with her care of Missy. We had to make quite a few changes to the schedule due to an unexpected family issue and she was extremely flexible. Aniya was on time for all her visits, sent me pictures and did lots of cuddles with Missy. Would definitely use again.”

I care for pets in their home by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible to reduce stress and keep them comfortable in a familiar environment. I prioritize safety, patience, and close attention to behavior and health changes while ensuring pets receive plenty of enrichment, affection, exercise, and clean living spaces. With my veterinary background, I am also comfortable administering medications, monitoring for medical concerns, and handling pets with anxiety or special needs using low-stress, Fear Free techniques. I treat every home respectfully and every pet as if they were my own.

About: PLEASE READ FULL PROFILE BEFORE YOU BOOK AND CHECK CALENDAR IF I AM AVIALABLE. Hello! Thank you for your interest. I am located in beautiful Guilford on RT. 77 .Very easy access from 95. I live with my 19 year old son. Your dog MUST be house trained, vaccinated, and on flea/tick prevention. And your doggy must love kids because we love dogs! We play fetch a lot and lots of walks in our big yard. I also walk a few miles a day and love the company! We also have a dog run. I usually take one dog at a time (unless otherwise specified) so they get our total attention and its a small house. We do not have our own dog. PLEASE PLEASE check my calendar for availability first. I do request a meet and greet,if you are a new client to make sure it is a good fit for us all. I am a teacher, so we follow a teacher daily schedule. So they MUST be ok home alone unless I am on school break and weekends. Please make sure your dog's information is filled out prior to booking. We hope to hear from you soon! Thank you! I am a teacher. So I follow the teacher schedule (hrs, off time). The dog must be able to be left alone during the typical school hours. Pets are inside with me. When I go out I like to take the dog with me-car rides, walks, baseball games etc. If its too hot I do have central air.
About: I have owned a Labrador Retriever, Jack Russell and two German Shepherds and have dog sat many others. I have had twelve years of experience with dog sitting. I will treat your dog like family with lots of love, spending time with them and many walks and adventures to dog parks around the area. I will give them lots of treats. While spending time at your home will treat it as my home with keeping it clean and able to do little stuff around the house such as watering the plants and picking up the mail with no extra cost. I have a flexible schedule, which I am able to pet sit at last notice. I have a dog name Juno who is a three year old Labrador who is friendly and gets along with all dogs. I would like meet and greets just to know the dog before hand and the dog knows me and Juno before we welcome them into our home! We want to create a welcoming home to your dog by not being a total stranger watching them, helping your dog with adjusting as their family is away. I currently work as a nurse so on my days off I am usually at home hanging with Juno and going on walks or playing in the uard I have a fenced in yard share with the neighbors and it is a six foot fence and locks in the back. I will always be outside with the dogs to make sure they are safe and happy.
About: I have been using Rover on and off for years and have met so many amazing dogs and their owners. I am active and love to be outside. I grew up with pets and am very compassionate towards all animals, especially dogs and cats. I have taken care of neighbors' dogs and homes while growing up. I live in North Branford with my fiancé, our cat Charlie and our dog Roz. Charlie came from a shelter and loves to be around other animals. Sometimes she can act like a dog herself. Roz was adopted from Save-A-Lab and is the sweetest girl. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have! I look forward to meeting your pet! I’m a personal trainer so I am typically available between 11 am and 4 pm. With so much free time on my hands and my love for being active, I decided I’d walk dogs part-time! If a dog is outside in their fenced yard, I’ll never take my eyes off of them. Ya never know if they’ve been plotting their escape! 😏 I always keep a dog on a leash. I prefer a non-retractable leash.

Gillian went above and beyond what we expected. It was very reassuring to have someone with a medical background there for our boys. She always provided photos for her visits and administered medication as needed. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.
