About: I grew up with 3 dogs, today both my sisters have a dog; a Golden Retriever & a German Shepard. I have watched and cared for both of them, as well as pet/house sitting for other family & friends. I also became a cat dad when I adopted a six year old cat three years ago! I just moved to CT so while I search for a job I decided to join Rover!! 6am-10pm 7 days a week I am available! I can be an early bird or a night owl & I love all animals! I can take your pet on a long run or a short walk and anything in between! Most of my experience is with bigger dog breeds like German Shepard, Golden Retriever, & Pit Bull. I have also cared for French Bull Dogs and other unknown dog breeds. I would love to work with any animals! My favorite part is learning how unique each animals is & getting to know their personalities!!

About: Growing up on a ranch in Texas, I've had experience with many types of dogs - large and small!

About: I’ve had two wonderful dogs—a Golden Retriever and a Black Lab—so I know how special that bond is. I love spending time outside and going on long walks or peaceful wooded path strolls. I’m patient, affectionate, and happy to match your dog’s energy, whether they need active play or just some company. I treat every dog like family and will make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a student with fully online, asynchronous classes, so my schedule is wide open! I’m flexible for walks, visits, overnights—whatever your pet needs at anytime. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to keep routines consistent and reduce stress. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, or written reports so you always feel informed. I can administer medication if needed and ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable in your absence. I also will respect your home and property, and always aim to leave things just as I found them.

About: New to Rover but not to pet sitting! My family has had dogs my whole life. As the oldest child in my household, I was responsible for all the little guys. Now I have an adorable, sassy cat at home who is a constant reminder of respectful boundaries and unconditional love. I’ve been a contact for family and friends when they need someone to watch or check in with their fur babies. I always want to make sure you and your pet are comfortable around me. I would be honored to care for your best friend. Don't hesitate to ask any questions regarding my services and we’ll see if I’m a good fit for you. I am currently in between jobs so I have a wide range of availability! In the future, I expect to be working part to full time during normal workweek hours 9-5, so would have more availability in early mornings and evenings. I have a fenced in yard and am nearby many dog-friendly trails. To stay at my home, your dog must be comfortable with cats, potty trained, and overall well-behaved. My cat has not had experience with other cats in our home so that is not something I am comfortable with. Around your home, I am happy to stick to whatever practices and routines are familiar and comfortable for your pet.

“Libby is the best! She took my dog Wilfred on some great walks and was very responsible and kind. I appreciate that she also looked out to make sure Wilfred didn’t have any ticks on him after the walks as we live near the woods. Thank you, Libby!”


“I found Danielle to be adaptable, flexible, communicative, open, reliable, trustworthy, dependable. She did exactly what she said she was going to do and more. She was available last minute to come watch/walk my dogs twice a day every day for seven days. She did not miss one day. She was here at the same time every day by 3:30 p.m.and again by 8. p.m. she used the Rover app extensively, I knew through Rover when she left the house when she was on her walk and when she returns the house. She sent pictures of the dogs. And she even fed the cats for me because I needed to have the cats occupied while she left the house so they wouldn’t try to slip out. I have three indoor cats. She went over and above my expectations. I am so so thankful the couple that I had planned to watch my dogs canceled on me 36 hours before my flight out. I needed someone desperately and three people were available. I chose Danielle because of her self reported review, and when she came to the house, her demeanor, confidence, ability to deal with the barking dogs and excitability of one of my dogs showed me that she could handle just about anything. I will be traveling again soon. Danielle will be my go to. Even if I have to leave the house for an entire day, I will be using Rover to schedule with Danielle she’s the best. So so so thankful that the first couple ditched me because I would never ever have met such a capable person like Danielle. There wasn’t a moment that I worried about my animals. Nor my house. She is so flexible that she had no problem canceling the last day due to my flight being on time, and me returning to the home an hour before her scheduled dog walk. She’s wonderful. My only problem with Danielle is I’m afraid she’ll be so busy after people read my review that she won’t have time to squeeze me into her schedule. She’s a keeper for sure.”


“This was my first time using Rover for my own pup, and I couldn’t be happier with Aimee. She has been amazing with a fast response time and dealing with my last minute requests. I will be using her services in the future”


About: I have extensive experience pet sitting for dogs (all ages), cats, rabbits, chickens and other birds, small mammals, and farm animals, including animals with special medical needs. I also have experiencw with exotic pets. I am certified in Pet First Aid and CPR. I have been a volunteer for both an animal shelter and a local animal rescue league chapter, as well as at many events that benefit animals, and have had pets of my own since childhood. I currently live with a wonderful, sweet, sassy 7 year old female Corgi. I owned 2 wonderful Siberian Huskies who lived to be seniors, and in the course, required regular medications, special diet, physical therapy exercises, assisted walking, and wound cleaning, so I am very familiar with dealing with health issues, and am able to recognize when an animal is in any distress. As I believe emotional well-being is just as important as physical, I will always spend time with your pet, or exercise him/her with his/her favorite toy or game. If your pet is in training, I would be happy to reinforce what he/she is learning. Caring for animals is not just what I do, it's who I am! I look forward to hearing from you! Please feel free to check out my Facebook page under Pawsibilities Pet Services for reviews! Pet sitting is my full time job, so I am basically at your disposal when it comes to your pets! You will find me very flexible! I am in a pet friendly community with ample safe places to walk. If you prefer your pet crated while I am not present I am happy to do so. I will try to keep a routine, as pets thrive on that.

About: Walks are a vital necessity for your pup! We will engage in healthy exercise and activities that will leave your pup feeling amazing and more agreeably natured around the home. Live next to the oral school with large areas to roam and play for your pup. House sitting will allow for an exciting change of environment for your pets, where they will get to interact with new and friendly faces. I will work to meet all your pet sitting and walking needs on a regular basis. Very professional and flexible person in the neighborhood looking to help. Cheers! Aaron A Visual artist working from home with one super high drive dog. A happy dog is a happy home, so long walks is part of the process!

About: I have been taking care of animals for the last 8 years. I’ve had animals in my life since the time I was born. Currently, I have two animals in my household. A black lab named Manny and a cat named Henry. Both are wonderful and wouldn’t trade them for the world. If you need help house sitting or even letting them out, I’d be happy to help. I can be able to care of the animals any time during the weekends. Week days I can do anytime after 3pm for a drop in or house sitting. I can be able to let the dogs outside in the yard or for a walk. I am able to play with them. For food schedules, I’ll feed and give them water and of course treats. For cats, I can feed and give them water while changing the cat litter when needed.

Connor S.
“Finding a good match for our furry friend Pippi has always been a challenge due to her aggression towards most strangers, but Connor somehow got through to her and gave us the opportunity to go have a stress free vacation. He even took her to the beach twice while we were away for the week which really helps with her anxiety (which was completely not necessary but was so amazing!). I couldn’t recommend him more and will be using him again!”

Jessica K.
“Jess is a fabulous petsitter! She is incredibly kind, caring and patient with all furry friends. She is diligent, timely and responsible which makes it so easy to leave her in charge when we are away. Jess has always had pets and really enjoys her time with them. I highly recommend Jess!”


Caitlyn R.
“Cait did an amazing job watching my two dogs, Brutus and Koda, and my cat, Bean, over the long weekend. I was a little nervous to leave them for that long, but she really went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. She kept me updated every day with photos and little check-ins, which helped me relax knowing they were in good hands. Brutus can be a little anxious when I’m gone, and Cait was super patient with him — even figured out that he settles better when he gets his favorite blanket during downtime. Koda has a ton of energy, and Cait made sure he got plenty of playtime and walks to tire him out. At one point, Bean somehow knocked her food bowl behind the fridge (classic), and Cait didn’t just leave it — she actually moved the fridge, found it, and cleaned up the mess without even making a big deal out of it. I didn’t even know that was possible, honestly. I came home to a clean apartment, happy pets, and a note from Cait with a little summary of the weekend. It was such a thoughtful touch. I could tell she really cared about making sure everything was done right. Would 100% recommend her to anyone who needs a reliable, kind, and super capable pet sitter.”


Jessica P.
“Jessica is enthusiastic about dogs and animals in general. Her love for animals carries into the way she cares for dogs. She has a way of making dogs feel at ease and she is great at making sure they don't get into trouble.”


Jessica M.
“I have never met anyone that loves animals as much as Jessie. Her life revolves around animals. She works at a veterinary clinic for her day job. She takes her dogs to training classes 5 days a week and apprentices to become a licensed dog trainer. You will not find a sitter more qualified or that cares about your pet more.”
