“Tyler & Patricia were amazing! I got daily updates and photos of my dog (adorable ones too!) and they were so kind and accommodating. I have already planned to book with them in the future. Sushi seemed to really love staying with them too :)”
About: Hi I'm Your Pup's BFF - Trainer Jillian I’ve cared for dogs for over 12 years, starting with dog walking and pet sitting before becoming a professional dog trainer. Over the years, I’ve taught hundreds of dogs and their parents in group classes and private settings, from puppy basics and obedience to enrichment, confidence building, fitness, and more. Being a trainer has made me a better BFF and caregiver because I’ve learned how to read each pup’s body language, comfort level, personality, and little behavior cues. This helps me adjust their care in the moment, whether they need structure, enrichment, reassurance, rest, or a little extra patience. I have experience with puppies, adults, seniors, and pups who need extra support or special-needs care. Your pup will be treated like family — with love, comfort, structure, and plenty of tail wags. Your pup’s care is built into my daily routine, and I keep my bookings intentionally low-volume so every stay is personal, calm, loving, and thoughtfully planned. I’m home with the pups most of the day, and any time away is planned around their care. I do my best to follow your pup’s normal routine for meals, potty breaks, walks, rest, and bedtime so their stay feels familiar and comfortable. Please let me know before booking if your pup cannot comfortably be left alone for more than 4 hours, needs overnight reassurance, is under 8 months old, a senior, or has special needs. This helps me plan the right care setup ahead of time. Some stays may require my puppy care rate if your pup needs extra time, supervision, or hands-on support. With a trainer’s eye and a high standard of safety, I keep each stay structured, cozy, and thoughtfully supervised. Guest pups have safe rest areas with crates, pens, and/or gates for decompression and separation when needed. For their safety and your peace of mind, guest pups are kept separate from other dogs on the property unless calm, supervised hangouts have been thoughtfully approved for returning BFFs. Outdoor time includes leashed walks, sniffy outings, park time, and/or long-line enrichment when appropriate. If your pup has a familiar dog friend they love, let me know and we can talk through whether a pre-approved visit feels safe, comfortable, and doable with the schedule.
“Lianna cared for my dog like her own. She kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout slinky’s visit and was very communicative throughout my dogs stay. Thank you Lianna for taking care of our pup 😁”
“Sabrina was a wonderful foster mom to our two large dogs while we were out of the country for two weeks. As it turned out, the two week boarding was the first time our pups had stayed overnight with Sabrina. There was obvious anxiety on how it would work out, but Sabrina's daily contact with meaningful messages and studio-like photos quickly put those fears to rest. The insight she provided on our furry children highlighted the attention she was giving them, and also her ability to speak dog. Allowing us to bring our own XL kennels so our dogs could feel more at home was the first sign of her genuine concern for our dogs comfort. We have our dogs on special meal plans which she had no problem accommodating. By the end of our trip we were afraid the dogs wouldn't want to come home with us! I also appreciate her flexibility in allowing us to adjust drop off and pick up times on relatively short notice. I can't say enough on how wonderful it all turned out, I appreciate having connected with her and having her as our foster mom going forward.”
“This was Ness’s second time watching our pup Pretzel, and she was just as amazing as the first! Pretzel absolutely adores her, and it’s such a comfort knowing she’s in loving, reliable hands. Ness is warm, communicative, and genuinely cares; can’t recommend her enough. We’ll definitely keep coming back!”
“Maritza is the best! Our Bear remembers Maritza and was sooo excited to be here! He didn’t bother looking at us when we dropped him off. We haven’t gone to her in awhile and Bear certainly remembers where to go! He had such a great time. We love all the pictures! Thank you for taking Bear last minute! He has always been in good hands with you!!!”
“Lauren is a wonderful pet sitter who takes excellent care of our furry troop! Right off the bat when I first met her, she is very warm and friendly and was great with our pets! When we came home after our weekend away our pets were relaxed and happy.She always takes amazing care of my pup who had severe separate anxiety and stressful experience from petsmart. It's always hard to be away from your furry kids, but I have no worries with that Lauren, I know my pups are in great hands! Lauren alwaya my first choice! She is truly cares about your pets and let your pets have fun/party”
“Wonderful family to have watch your dog. Took well care of my dog. Treated my dog as their own. Showed lots of care and love. Highly recommended to watch your dog. Would have them watch my dog anytime I need another pet sitter. Updates daily with pictures and videos. Dogs get plenty of play time and attention. Wouldn't have anyone else watch my dog.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our furry love ones. They were so happy Buster didn’t want to leave. I am very happy to have found you will be first on my list for the next time.”
“This was my first time ever using Rover to find a pet sitter and we think we found the pit of gold at the end of the rainbow. Angela was absolutely amazing! My son was extremely worried about leaving his dog with anyone but family for the very first time. But the updates and photos we received put his mind at ease that Pluto was having a great time on his own mini vacation. Thanks to this, we were able to better enjoy our own vacation. I cannot say enough positive things about our first time with Angela and Rover.”
“Exceptional dog sitter! This marks the second time she's cared for our two small dogs, and once again, she surpassed our expectations. She provided daily updates, along with photos. The genuine affection our dogs show for her speaks volumes. Her unwavering availability during our family emergency was a true comfort. She consistently goes above and beyond, making her the go-to choice for anyone in need of a caring and reliable pet sitter. Highly recommend her for a second time and beyond!”
“It is our first time boarding our dog, so we were a bit nervous, but Soonok was amazing! Our dog likes to walk outside, and Soonok brought him out for walks and even updated us with photos and videos. We appreciate Soonok being communicative and for taking great care of our dog. 5 stars for sure!”
“Allycia was great taking care of Luna for couple of days. Very nice and easy to talk to. She sent us pictures and information daily. Definitely will book with Allycia again. Thank you Allycia!”
“Anne & Jason did an excellent job caring for our 5 pound dog. They were so good to send me daily pictures and promptly answer any questions I had. We will definitely be using them again and have already booked them for our next trip.”
“This was our first time using Rover and Mike & Jahyung made it the best experience. Communication was fast and reliable. I appreciated the photo and video updates throughout the stay. Bambi looked like she was having a great time and I was pleased to see how well she was getting along with Bendy! Also, their backyard is amazing and so beautiful. Definitely recommend Mike & Jahyung, I could see how much they love and care for dogs. Thank you so much, we will definitely be reaching out next time!”
“Bethany and her family were complete angels for my two pups who have trauma from being attacked by two large dogs. I worry about my dogs a lot, so Bethany provided updates, photos and was quick to respond when I reached out. Best of all: my pups weren't sure that they wanted to come home when I picked them up! They were so happy and well-cared for! I couldn't have asked for more. Bethany and her family are gems and I will be coming back to them.”
“We had to leave Vito for boarding last minute. Jess was able to accommodate and was happy to host Vito! We got regular updates through out the weekend which made us feel more comfortable. We would definitely recommend Jess and would book her again! ☺️”
“He is incredibly attentive, responsible, and caring. I could tell that my furry friend was in good hands right from the start. They went above and beyond to ensure my dog's comfort and happiness throughout the stay. I highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch pet care.”
“This is our second time having our dog Coco with Sonia and her daughter and we couldn't be more grateful for all the love and comfort they provided for her. There wasn't a second that we doubted that Coco would be in the utmost care with them. Thank you so much, Sonia. We appreciate you so much!!”

Norwalk dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter while we were out of town. They took excellent care of our dog, kept us updated with messages and photos, and gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We really appreciated their reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. We would absolutely trust them with our dog again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.
Tyler and Patricia took very good care of my 5 year old Shiba Inu. I felt very comfortable leaving my baby in their care. They kept me posted about their activities and kind enough to send me pictures of my baby being completely pampered and spoiled. I highly recommend them and will definitely bring Hachi back to them very soon!
Sabrina took a last minute request from us which we were very appreciative of. Ollie loved her stay with Sabrina. She provided updates throughout the day with some lovely pictures of Ollie. Sabrina was also very patient and willing to provide the care that Ollie needs as a special needs dog. We’d definitely use Sabrina’s services again!
We were nervous to leave our baby with someone other than our parents but he had a great time and Ness sent pictures and let me know he was doing great. By the end of trip I was nervous he wouldn’t want to come home because of how happy he looked with Ness and her dogs. Would definitely use again!
Infinity did another wonderful boarding for our Ghost (Alaskan Klee Kai). Last minute, she was able to take him in again and kept him safe, happy and secure. We have asked Infinity to watch him multiple times and I really can’t say enough positive things about her. Thank you again.
Cathie and Donald(Dave) are amazing! They take care of our baby pup so well that he forgets he wants to come home! He has way too much fun and is so loved! They are truly the best and we could not ask for better sitters. They definitely treat your dog/ pet like family. They are the best!
This was my first time leaving my dog as just recently adopted and was anxious, however Ken made it easy. He sends check ins/updates to let me know how my dog is handling the temporary change. It was nice. He also worked with his routine as he could so he was not off when he returned. Everything about the experience was great. Thank you again.
We had to leave town for a family emegrgency and couldn't take our pup. It was our first time leaving him and Aarti made sure to take great care of him. She was able to take him in sooner than we thought too but she was very accomodating and I know we left him in good hands. Teddy was tired when we picked him up so I now he had a great time with all the other pups.
We had such a great experience with Mario! He is attentive, caring, and truly treated our Ollie like family. It’s clear he loves what he does and it shows in the way he communicates and cares for animals. So lucky to have someone like this in our community — highly recommend! 🐾
