“Taryn was amazing and my dogs quickly felt at ease and comfortable with her. She sent many pictures throughout her stay. Thank you for taking such great care of my pups.”
“Maryn was so kind to our dogs, you can tell she really is an animal person. She sent us pictures one of the days we were gone and it was great to see the dogs were so happy. Our house was very clean when we came home, and the mail was even brought in! Will definitely be booking again.”
“Bree was great! My dog can be high anxiety and Bree handled him well! She was very respectful of my house. I came home to a happy dog and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Jenny stayed in our home taking care of our 2 dogs - one dog is recuperating from a leg injury and she did a great job ensuring our girl got her exercise and rest. Jenny is dependable and communicates regularly. Highly recommend!”
“Sharon was absolutely phenomenal! She took such good care of our dog and paid close attention to his needs with medication and food. I loved getting all of the pictures showing how comfortable he was when we weren't there! We will definitely be using Sharon again!”
“We had never used Rover before as we were hesitant to leave our babies with strangers. I chose Abby from reading her great reviews. She did an amazing job with our 2 dogs and cat. We knew they’d been well taken care of by the way they acted when we got home. She communicated well and sent daily pictures. She stayed at our home and even washed and made the bed! She left our home great. I would highly recommend her!”
“Lulu was such a nice, polite young lady. She truly seemed to love Molly and my baby truly seemed comfortable with her. The photos sent were heartwarming, reassuring, and appreciated. Thank you, Lulu!!”
“Erin was just wonderful! She has a very calming presence that our doggies appreciated. They hardly missed us while we were gone! She took excellent care of our home as well. We really loved the daily updates and photos that she sent. 11/10; highly recommended!”
“Emma did me a great service and booked an overnight stay with my pup very last minute when my original sitter backed out. Emma took my pup on a drive and took great care of her. She also sent updates and pictures throughout the night while I was at work, which was greatly appreciated! Would book again!”
“Was timely and present with the doggos! They’re like children so all you can hope is someone will show up and love them while you’re away like you would! Will definitely use her again :)”
“Rachel did an amazing job with our dogs. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing she was taking such good care of them. We got daily updates, with pictures. She gladly brought in mail and watered plants for us. She is very accommodating and fit us in to her schedule. She was able to pop in for 3 afternoons visits before her time here started when our son wasn’t able to get here during the day to let them out. We will definitely be calling her for future jobs! She’s a gem!!”
About: I love cats and dogs!! I would love to hang out with your animals and care for them like they were my own while you’re away! :) I have some classes during the day so I will have all night and most afternoons to hang with your furry one! Lots of walking time! I have had dogs and cats my whole life so I know how to play with them and keep it safe and efficient! I love a good walk and fetch session
“Jessica was such a wonderful dog sitter for us! Our dog was so well taken care of, and got lots of walks at various parks. Jessica is an excellent communicator and sent us photos while we were away. We returned to a clean house and a happy pup. We can't thank her enough!”
About: I like to think of myself as someone who makes the most out of any situation— someone fun AND responsible. I’ve been taking care of pets for family and friends since I was 12. I’ve been cat/dog/house sitting for my aunt and her family for a couple years, so am familiar and good w all the responsibilities! During college I would pet sit for my friends going on vacation or visiting family on weekends. And I just generally love taking walks and spending time with non-human companions I am a medical student, mostly studying during the day. I find that breaking up my day with walks is super helpful to prevent burn out, so I am happy to take mid-day walks and check ins for your pet(s). I am flexible in routine and can plan according to your preference :) I will follow directions for caring for pets in my client’s home. I understand the importance of keeping the client’s home in its original condition. Let’s discuss your preferences!
“We’ve had Lori house sit with our 2-3 dogs for the past 5 years. We’re spoiled and our pups are also because she’s so reliable and we know the dogs are getting great care. We’re always comfortable about leaving the four legged friends behind if Lori is taking care of them for us.”
“Kennedy is genuinely such an amazing dog sitter! She keeps you updated everyday and gives your doggie so much love and makes them feel so comfortable. Will 100% be asking Kennedy to watch my sweet Ross again (he absolutely loves her). Kennedy also has the most precious dog of her own named Beatrix and my Ross loved her too! Thank you so much Kennedy you’re the best <3”
“Kayma was so very kind and easy going. My dogs felt at ease with her pretty immediately. Which, I could tell from all of the photos she sent me!!! She was very communicative and made everything feel easy. I cannot recommend her enough. Your fur kiddos will be in great hands.”
Old Westport pet parents share their Rover experiences
I was so nervous to use a petsitter that wasn’t friends or family for the first time, but Crissy made the process very easy. We had a nice meet and greet, and she patiently walked me through the ins and outs of using Rover to book (as it was all new to me). She asked good questions about the dogs’ care and kept me updated throughout her say with the pups. She completely understood how cat-like huskies can be and let the senior queen do her thing. Lilly and Sully seemed happy and well-cared for when I returned. I am planning to book with Crissy again next month!
All your gut instincts will tell you Bailee is one of the good ones and you’ll be absolutely right. After meeting her just once, we left for Aruba for a full week and I knew 100% that our two Great Pyrenees and little Pomeranian were in excellent care. I have a habit of adopting pups from tough backgrounds which means unique, nuanced personalities and Bailee handled their individual needs with total ease. This overprotective dog mom is endlessly grateful for Bailee’s incredible care. That peace of mind is priceless.
Ann is the bomb. While we missed Indy, we did not worry about her being taken care of for one minute while we were away. Ann is very knowledgeable about animals and you can tell she genuinely loves what she does. Indy got some different treats this week that Ann provided. We would use her again without question when we have need of pet sitting services.
Kayma was so very kind and easy going. My dogs felt at ease with her pretty immediately. Which, I could tell from all of the photos she sent me!!! She was very communicative and made everything feel easy. I cannot recommend her enough. Your fur kiddos will be in great hands.
Abby was awesome! She was very responsive to the booking questions, took the time to understand the medication needs upfront, and left the house IMMACULATE upon our return. We got daily updates with pictures and felt very comfortable with her watching our two older Frenchies and the house.
Hannah is an absolutely phenomenal pet sitter and house sitter, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. We’ve used her several times now, and every time she exceeds our expectations. Our dog and two cats adore her and are completely relaxed and happy when she’s here, which gives us tremendous peace of mind when we’re away. She’s wonderfully attentive with the animals—making sure they’re fed on schedule, walked, played with, and genuinely loved on. She seems to understand each of their personalities, and it really shows in how excited they are to see her. The photo updates she sends are thoughtful and frequent enough that we never have to wonder how everyone is doing; we can see for ourselves that they’re safe and content. On top of that, Hannah takes excellent care of the house. Everything is spotless when we come home, and she’s respectful of our space and routines. We trust her completely—not just with our pets, but with our home. It’s rare to find someone who is this responsible, kind, and reliable. We recommend Hannah without hesitation to anyone looking for a true professional who will treat both your pets and your home as if they were her own.
Laura was great with my pups and she was available last minute. There was a scheduling issue with the sitter I had booked and Laura stepped in with 36 hours notice and did a great job. She is now saved in my favorites and I will use her again. Thanks Laura!
Illa was professional and very responsible in taking care of my Maltese. She’s spoiled to death but that’s the way I like her to be and Illa was very respectful of that and contacted me about one issue which I definitely appreciated. It all worked out great and I definitely would recommend her for doing a wonderful job!
