“Thank you very much, we are thrilled to have found you. I was skeptical of this service as I’ve never known anyone to use it before. We are so lucky to have found someone who is so gentle, caring, responsible and reliable. I am naturally a worrier, but I have peace of mind knowing Teddie will be cared for by his new Auntie Terry. For those reading your bio and reviews, do not hesitate to contact Terry, you will not be disappointed. Ellen”

About: I currently work from home, so your pup gets plenty of company and attention throughout the day rather than being left alone for hours. Our days can include walks, playtime, backyard time, cuddles, or simply relaxing nearby while I work. I have a 2-year-old Black Lab/Boxer mix who is very friendly and loves having other dogs around. We also have a fully fenced-in yard where the dogs can safely get some fresh air, play, and stretch their legs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I’m happy to follow your pup’s normal schedule as closely as possible—including meals, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I also love sending photo updates, because I know how reassuring it is to see that your dog is happy and doing well while you're away. ❤️ Whether your dog is energetic and ready to play or prefers to curl up and relax, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, care, and companionship. If your pup is looking for a comfortable home-away-from-home, I’d love to meet you both! Because I work from home, your dog gets plenty of company and attention throughout the day! Our days can include walks, playtime, backyard time, cuddles, and plenty of relaxing while I work. I’m happy to follow your pup’s normal routine as closely as possible, whether they’re high-energy and ready to play or happier lounging beside me. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can see how your pup is doing while you’re away. 🐶 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I work from home, so I’m able to provide plenty of supervision and companionship throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. For pets staying in my home, I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time, and my 2-year-old Black Lab/Boxer mix is very friendly with other animals. I always make introductions gradually and pay close attention to each pet’s personality and comfort level. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and other special needs. I also keep a close eye on pets indoors and outside and make sure doors, gates, and the yard are secure. Most importantly, I treat every pet in my care like they’re part of the family—and I’ll keep you updated with photos so you know your pup is happy and doing well!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always loved spending time with them.

I’m a senior at Connecticut College with plenty of flexibility in my schedule.

About: I have worked at a grooming salon and completed a veterinary assistant training program through Three Rivers. I am both experienced and knowledgeable when it comes to animal care and have worked with a wide variety of species, breeds, and temperaments. I'm also comfortable with exotic pets and invertebrates. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to devote to your pets! I'm completely free on Fridays and Saturdays and am available most evenings. I'm flexible and will follow whatever care instructions are given to me by the owners. I'm able to give as many bathroom breaks as needed and follow any special feeding instructions as well as administering medications when necessary.

About: I have been house sitting overnight since I was 14. I have experience working with dogs, cats, mice, and flying squirrels. Believe it or not, I have taken care of dogs who were indoor-trained only.I am also an experienced dog walker- not just with my own dogs but with friends' dogs that I've loved as my own. **serious inquiries only** please do not send me a booking request if you're going to ghost me after I respond or if you plan to book with another sitter. You'd be surprised by how often this happens. I abide by the safety precautions at the homes I stay at (fences, ring cameras, etc). When I stay with indoor cats, I take extra precautions when leaving the house to make sure the cats don't escape.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I’ve had dogs of my own since I was 5 years old and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets. Over the years, I’ve watched friends’ dogs and cats while they’ve traveled, walked friends’ dogs, and helped care for my family’s cats. I’m a proud single mom to two amazing daughters and a Frenchie mama to Theo and Chloe, who are absolutely part of the family! ❤️ I’m also a local Realtor living in Waterford, and my flexible schedule allows me to make time for something else I truly enjoy—caring for animals! As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your furry family members. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m reliable, attentive, respectful of your home, and always happy to send pictures and updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands! 🐾💕 As a local Realtor, I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my days around appointments and commitments. This gives me the opportunity to fit in walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and plenty of playtime throughout the week! As a single mom and proud Frenchie mama, caring for others is already a big part of my daily routine. I understand the importance of consistency, and I’m happy to work with pet parents to find times that best fit their furry family members’ needs. Whether it’s a midday potty break or some extra attention while you’re away, I’d love to help! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities! As a dog mom myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care.

I’ll make sure doors and gates are secure, walks are safe and enjoyable, and your pets receive plenty of love and attention. I’m also big on communication! You can expect pictures and updates during visits so you can feel confident knowing your furry family members are happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: No rule will be bent, no abnormal behavior will go unreported, and no tummy will be left unrubbed! I've done it all! Boarding, overnights, drop in visits, walks, appointment escort, etc... I just love animals. I've never met an animal I didn't get along with and never feel better than when one returns that love. I know it can be challenging and, frankly, scary to trust someone else with your pets- they're family after all! That's why I consider the role of pet sitter as the most important part of my day. You want pictures? You got 'em! You need updates? Expect a detailed text! You want someone to reassure your babies to not worry and their mom(s)/dad(s) will be home soon? I will be as clear with them as if they were a human child! I get it, you worry they will feel scared when you aren't home. That's why I am here. Food, walks, and playtime are all well and good, but I believe it is just as important to make them feel as comfortable as I can with as much reassurance as I can give. I am a weekly volunteer at Kitty Harbor in Griswold so when it comes to cats, I am experienced in all sorts of mishaps- litter accidents, dirty butt, scratch boo boos, and more. I am also experienced in administering medication. Of course, if you're kitty has a way that works for them, then that's how we'll get it done! As for the pups, I am always excited to get a chance to go for a walk or even a full on hike! Exercise is always more fun when a four legged friend is involved. If you're training a young puppy, or even an old fellow, just let me know exactly when I should be disallowing and you can feel comfortable they won't be learning any bad behavior from me. One last note: boundaries are so important. Every animal is different and every animal has their own limits. If your kitty doesn't like to be pet, then no pets they shall have. If your dog doesn't like to be watched while they eat, then my eyes shall be shut. I hate being stressed, why would I put that on anyone else? I work a 9-5 in Norwich so I am available early mornings and evenings for visits. If you're in Norwich, I can be available mid day for a lunch time drop in as well. I have reliable transportation and a desire to start and/or end my day with furry friends. As for weekends, I am always booked afternoon into the evening on Sunday for my time with the kitties at the Kitty Harbor, but other than that I can have plenty of room on the weekends to add your babies in to my routine. Routine and boundaries. Whatever they are used to, that's what they'll get from me! I hate being stressed, why would I want to do anything to make an animal unnecessarily stressed?

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! 🐾 I absolutely LOVE animals, and I truly believe they all deserve plenty of love, attention, and belly rubs! I’ve had experience caring for cats, dogs, rabbits, and other small animals, so I’m comfortable with a variety of furry friends. I also completed an Animal Science program in high school, where I learned about animal behavior, how to read behavioral cues, and the basics of animal care and grooming. I’m happy to care for animals of all ages, sizes, and breeds! I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs, and I’ll always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 💜🐶🐱 I currently work from home part-time and my daughter is in school 3 days a week. On school days and weekends my schedule is very open and flexible I prioritize every pet’s safety, comfort, and individual needs. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, routines, medications, and care. I respect pets’ boundaries, pay attention to their behavior, and make sure doors and gates are secure. I keep spaces clean, including litter boxes, and provide regular updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.

We absolutely love having her care for our five little rascals! This was our sixth time using her, and once again, she was amazing. She is reliable, attentive, and communicates so well, which gives us complete peace of mind while we’re away. Five cats is definitely a handful, and then add the litter room to the mix! 😂 She handles it all like a pro and is so patient and caring with each of them. We always come home to happy, well-cared-for cats and a clean, well-kept home. The fact that we keep coming back says it all! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely caring pet sitter. We’ll definitely be using her again!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Pleasant Valley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Pleasant Valley is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $37 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 843 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pleasant Valley. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
