“Hunter was great and what above and beyond caring for my cats while I was on vacation. Communication was great. Wouldn’t hesitate to hire Hunter again. Thanks!”

“Maeve is upbeat, confident and friendly. She was kind and attentive to both of our pets. I appreciated the photos and multiple communications during the day. Maeve followed the plan to a “T”. I hope that she is available every time we need a pet sitter!”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life and understand that every dog has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. As a current dog owner to my energetic 1½-year-old dog, I have hands-on experience with daily walks, exercise, training reinforcement, feeding schedules, and providing lots of love and attention. Growing up with dogs taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets can thrive. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. In addition to my experience with dogs, I have spent years caring for animals through my equestrian background, which has helped me develop strong animal-handling skills, attention to detail, and a calm, responsible approach to animal care. I have spent the last 5 years riding and training horses professionally am really passionate about all things animals ! Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visit, or companionship while you’re away, I’ll make sure they receive attentive care, plenty of affection, and regular updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. 🐾 I work as a professional rider and spend much of my day caring for and working with horses, which has given me extensive experience handling animals and maintaining consistent care routines. My schedule can vary depending on training and horse show commitments, but I do my best to keep my Rover calendar up to date and am often available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I always make safety and comfort my top priority when caring for pets. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and routine so they feel relaxed and secure while I’m with them. I’ve grown up around animals and currently work around horses, so I’m very used to reading animal behavior and staying calm and responsible in different situations. I bring that same mindset to every dog I care for.

“Karina and Jared did a great job looking after my 2 cats while we were away. Jared did the drop in visits to feed, water and scoop. Karina was available for any questions I had and provided help with the Rover scheduling. They kept me up to date on the cat care and were great with communication. Thanks!”

“Our lab girl can be shy and nervous around strangers, Nataliia quickly made her feel comfortable. She was patient, gentle, and found the right way to Bella’s heart. We’re very grateful and highly recommend her!”

About: I love being with animals and have experience caring for a wide range of pets, including dogs, cats, jumping sliders, and lizards. I enjoy learning each animal’s personality and making sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I am a student who goes to college out of state but is home for the month of January and is also working part time. Since losing a dog of my own I figured this would be a great opportunity to help others with their pets and still have a great time with animals. I do have a fenced in yard if I take dogs into my home but in other peoples homes, listening to the guardian is most important to me on how they coexist with their pet and respecting that. At the end of the day I want to help people care for their pets.

“Don’t hesitate to book Jennifer. You couldn’t get anyone more dependable or kinder to your pets. She always goes way beyond the call of duty!”

About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets including dogs, cats, and birds. While it has been quite a few years, I was a veterinary technician in high school and college. I love all animals and feel comfortable around dogs of all sizes. I am a second grade teacher looking to share my love of animals while earning extra income during the summer. I am a second-grade teacher with two high school children. I can be available most days during the summer due to my career. I am also available most afternoons/evenings during the school year. I will ensure any specific instructions are followed with care and accuracy and make your pet feel comfortable and loved. I can support the needs of both active and relaxed dogs, and love to provide a cozy lap and/or be a throwing companion for your furry family member.

“Stacey was great! She communicated very well with me, took lots of great pictures of my pets and did a great job taking care of them! I will definitely book with her again!”

About: From our family pets to neighbor pet sitting. I walk, play, bathe, and relax with pets at their homes or at the parks. I want them to enjoy the day and be able to explore around town on their walks. I’m currently working full time hybrid office opportunity. I am able to work from home and can spend time with the pets while working. I do have tax seasons where I am in office but can walk dogs during lunch time or on the weekends I am working from home and work is flexible with this. I follow any instructions given to me by the client on how to make their pet comfortable at their own home and be able to enjoy their time at home

About: I’ve been taking care of animals all my life. I currently live with three cats and one bunny. I have also had dogs throughout my life. So I welcome everyone! I’m currently working part time at a doggy daycare. So, I will be available weekends and some weekdays! And of course I always try to keep my schedule updated! I understand how frightening it could be for your pet to see a new person coming to your home. I can assure you, I will give them time to adjust and sniff. Then of course I can give them love!

“Amanda was great! She was consistent and made sure my cats had everything they needed. Including taking care of cleaning the cat bowls and picking up after one of them got sick. She gave good updates. Would use again and recommend to others.”

About: Hi, I’m Rebecca. Animals aren't just a job for me—they are my lifelong passion. I’ve owned and loved dogs my entire life, so I know firsthand that pets aren't just animals; they are cherished family members. Whether your pup needs a high-energy run, a patient walk, or just some quality couch snuggles, I promise to treat them with the exact same love and devotion I give my own. 🐴 Beyond Pups: My Diverse Animal Experience While dogs have my heart, my hands-on experience spans across the entire animal kingdom!

Fish & Lizards: Well-versed in the specific feeding schedules, habitat maintenance, and delicate care needed for aquatic and reptilian friends. Why choose me?

No matter the shape, size, or species, your beloved pets will be safe, happy, and thoroughly spoiled in my care! I work full-time in education, but am available after 3pm for your pet care needs. I have the summers off, so beginning in June, I have all the flexibility you need! As a highly depenable provider, I offer a comprehensive suite of in-home services tailored to your pet's specific schedule: Reliable Drop-Ins & Feeding: Strict adherence to dietary routines, medication schedules, and fresh water refills.

About: When I was 10 I joined a dog training program through my school, that’s where my training experience began. I provide a premium, low-volume dog care experience for owners who want their dog to have more one-on-one attention in a calm home environment. Your dog won’t be just one of many in a crowded space. I keep my care more personal so each dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. I have a big yard for dogs to enjoy, but my indoor space is smaller, so I am very intentional about keeping the number of dogs low. That means I can focus on your dog’s comfort, safety, and overall experience much more closely. This is a great fit for dogs who do better with a quieter setting and for owners who value quality of care over high-volume boarding or daycare. I generally only take one to a few dogs at a time unless they are from the same household. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs. I took care of my childhood dog for 17 years of her long, beautiful life. I have experience working with small senior dogs specifically and I know all the little things that they appreciate. I also have experience with large dogs and can handle very big strong dogs. I also love hiking with dogs so if you have an energetic dog you need to burn off energy I am your guy. I have an acre yard with a fenced in front yard in a nice area. Any dog that boards with me would be treated like my own dog and let out very frequently to go to the bathroom and play outside. I would always remain home with your dog. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m currently a fully remote student so I am fully available. If I board a pet I will be with them full time to make sure they receive the care they deserve. I have a fenced in front yard, and a good amount of unfenced land in the back. My dog is very friendly and would keep your pet great company. He loves dogs and cats. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but would love to give your dog the pet experience and treat them like my own. I live in a nice are and have great access to the woods nearby as well.

About: I’m a really active individual and love being outside as much as possible! I have dog sat for various families with varying ages of dogs. I have no pets, so my full attention is for your pet! I’m a grad student at UConn for physical therapy. I live at home, and my class schedule is very light this semester. I will be around most hours of the day to care for your pet. I have a decent sized yard for your pets to get running time. I go on walks on bike paths and hiking trails often, and I would love some company!

About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have been pet sitting on the side for over 2 and a half years now! I mostly do overnights, making sure dogs are well taken care of and attended to. I am currently pet sitting full time, so I will be available almost every day, at any given time! Whether that’s a drop in visit or an overnight stay! I try to spend as much time as much time as I have with your dog to make sure they have been let out to go to the bathroom and exercise if needed!

“Tylar was great! We just needed a quick drop in for a date night and Tylar made that possible for us! She came to meet us and our pups before the booking and took wonderful care while she was here 5/5!”
