“Melissa is a lifesaver! She was able to come check on my cat while I was away for 11 days. She made sure he had plenty of food, water and treats! She also sent me pictures of him with each visit so I knew he was being well taken care of :) I will absolutely book with her in the future and if you live in the New London/Groton area and need a pet-sitter, you can take comfort in knowing your pet will be well taken care of by Melissa!”


“Elizabeth did a wonderful job caring for our cat Bud while we went out of town for two nights. He warmed up to her quickly and seemed very comfortable from the many check in pics. She was responsive, flexible and went above and beyond by cleaning up after him when he made a mess. I would highly recommend her services! I usually impose on a friend when we go away so I’m thrilled to know I have another responsible person to call on who Bud likes and trusts. Thank you Elizabeth!”


“Kourtney did a great job with my 4 cats and made sure their needs were met during our vacation. She was very good with communication and sending photos. I would recommend her.”


“I highly recommend Britney. She was wonderful taking care of our cat, had excellent communication, and shared many pictures of him during her visits. We would love to have her take care of our cat in the future!”


“Tina is the best! She took wonderful care of my two kitties and we could not be happier. She was able to get my senior cat to take her daily medicine without issue and was super communicative with detailed daily updates. I will absolutely reach out again next time we need a sitter!”


“We booked Olivia for daily drop in visits for our two cats while we were on vacation. One of our cats has diabetes and she was able to take glucose readings and provide him his daily insulin shots. We are incredibly thankful Olivia was able to add visits when our diabetic cat needed additional insulin shots. She sent pictures and videos daily and our cats loved her :) highly recommend!!”


About: I am an Animal Science graduate from UCONN with lifelong experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, chickens, reptiles and more! I have many years and experience giving all types of animals medicine (Orally and IM). Dedicated to providing safe, loving, and reliable pet care. I'm currently pet sitting part-time! I have lots of flexibility to be able to visit during work hours, weekends and more! Happy to work around many different schedules. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions to keep the pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible!

“Molly was fabulous while watching our 3 cats for a week in our home! She was very attentive to their quirky needs and individual personalities. She was very patient while waiting out their shy, adjustment period. She administered meds to 2 of the 3, twice daily, which sometimes isn’t a smooth process! Molly was efficient and resourceful when dealing with our “disappearing” older female who re-surfaced after Molly’s efforts! She followed our instructions and reached out very responsibly when she had questions or concerns. We returned to a perfectly clean, fresh smelling home and 3 very content felines! We very much appreciated her daily updates with pictures! Will definitely hire her again for our next trip! Sincerely, David and Nora”


“Nicole is a wonderful sitter! She watched my cat Otis for me semi last minute on a holiday weekend. He is a shy kitty but he was comfortable with her immediately. She was on time, communicative, and super sweet. Highly recommend!”


“I can’t recommend Natalie enough! She did a tremendous job caring for our fur babies while my husband and I were away for ten days. She not only ensured they were well-fed but also took the time to genuinely get to know our cats, building their trust and making them feel safe and happy. Natalie truly goes above and beyond as a sitter, and her bonus skill is capturing the most beautiful, perfect photographs of our cats. We loved seeing their happy faces and feeling reassured with each update. When we returned, we found them content and well-adjusted, a testament to the care and attention she provided. I’ll definitely book her again in the future, and I can’t thank her enough for the peace of mind she gave us. Highly recommend Natalie for anyone needing a compassionate, dedicated cat sitter!”


About: If your pet has less than eight legs, I’m here to help! I have personal ownership experience of rabbits, ferrets, cats, and dogs. I am an artist which affords me a uniquely flexible schedule that allows me to easily adapt to your needs! I’ve worked with animals of all ages and sizes! For everything I don’t know, I refer to my sister who is a certified vet tech! I’m a full-time artist meaning my schedule has near-complete flexibility. I am easily bookable day-of most days, and am available for overnight care. The portability of my work allows me complete flexibility to meet the needs of you and your pet(s). Your pets are your most cherished family members, and I never lose sight of that. Maintaining the utmost respect for your pets and your property is always my top priority.

About: I'm very good at leading dogs on walks and getting them to like me as well. It's important to have a balance in that sense. I can walk dogs or feed pets before and after work. I usually work 7-3 Monday through Friday at EB with weekends off for fun walks and hanging out. I feed pets, get them water, walk dogs on a leash and pick up after the dogs followed by a nice pet and maybe a little treat :)

About: I've had cats since I was about 4 years old, and trained my own service dog (adopted as a senior from a pound) from 2016-2023, when she sadly passed. I've taken care of a range of pets belonging to family, friends, and family's friends and coworkers. I can handle pets of all ages, from kittens/puppies to senior animals, as well as working on training and house-breaking. I'm currently only working part-time with very few hours, so pet care is honestly how I'd like to spend my spare time and make my income. I'm very focused on the details of individual pet's care. I always make sure I understand the feeding schedules and amounts, how often the animals need to go outside, whether they can be off-leash in a fenced in area or if they need to be on an outside line or on a leash, whether or not cats go on walks, and I'm very careful to not leave human food around for them to get into. I always ask as many questions as possible to make sure I provide the best care for the pets I'm looking after.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years—from cuddly lap cats to energetic pups. I’m reliable, gentle, and always focused on keeping pets happy. I’m currently working part-time while going to Eastern State University so I’m pretty flexible! I’m primarily looking to work Mondays, anytime after 12 pm and Fridays. :) Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, loving environment where pets feel secure and cared for. You can trust me to treat your furry family members like my own, ensuring peace of mind while you’re away.

“I highly recommend Dina to care for your loving animals. She is responsive and easy to communicate with. She even sent pictures. It's not often that you find someone that makes you feel at ease knowing your animals are cared for and Dina did just that. Moving forward she is my preferred pet sitter!!!”


“Kate was absolutely amazing! We were so worried about our special needs cat while we were out of town but both of our cats and dog loved her!! She was able to get out very shy cat to eat his medicine and play with her in such a short amount of time. We will definitely be using Kate in the future when we’re out of town!”


About: Hello! My name is Meghan and I have a love and passion for all kinds of animals. I am currently a part time veterinary assistant and am available for walks and drop-in visits. I have never known a life without pets. Growing up, my family always had dogs, including two German Shepherd police K9s and even a dog who used a wheel chair. Having both working dogs and pet dogs in the house has given a firm understanding of the differences between them, as well as helped me to feel comfortable around multiple different breeds. I have also bred and whelped both German shepherd and Labrador retriever puppies. Currently, my husband and I have two Labrador retrievers, five cats and four goats. I would love to take my passion for animals and turn it into a business one day, which is why I decided to start on Rover. I am currently available for dog walking and drop in visits for socializing and potty breaks. Please contact me for any kind of pet care you may need! I am currently a part time veterinary assistant! I am available during the following hours for walks and drop-in visits: Monday 2pm - 6pm Wednesday 9am - 6 pm Thursday 9am - 12pm Saturday & Sunday 9am - 6pm I have reliable transportation, and will treat your pets as if they are my own. Their safety and happiness is the most important thing to me.
