As always, Melissa is the best, and we are so lucky to have her to look after our pets!! She is so responsive, sends great photos of our cats, and gives us so much peace of mind when we are away. We cannot recommend her enough!

Took very good care of my 4 very different and sometimes challenging kitties while I was away. She took the job last minute after my previously booked sitter had to cancel the day before I left. So grateful and would definitely use again.

Tina went above and beyond for our pup. She was caring and attentive to our dog’s needs and was willing to engage with our dog on her terms. They became fast friends and I can’t recommend Tina more.

About: I don’t have my own pet anymore as he passed from old age. I like to take care of other people’s pets when they are on vacation and care for them with as much love as if they were my own. I will stay at your home if needed , schedule potty break services as well. I work at an elementary school so let out before I go to work and right after, evenings and bed time. I will take care of pets in clients home with care plan that fits the pets needs. Give them plenty of attention and care to take away any worries when you are away.

About: With 13 years of experience, I care for pets of all ages—puppies to seniors. What truly sets me apart as a pet sitter is the level of care, attention, and heart I bring to every animal I look after. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all pet sitting—every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to match their individual routines, personalities, and preferences. Whether it’s maintaining a strict feeding schedule, keeping up with daily walks, or simply spending quality time playing or cuddling, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and understood in your absence. I have extensive experience with a wide range of animals, including those with special needs such as senior pets, animals with anxiety, or those requiring regular medications. I’m confident in providing not only basic care but also the kind of gentle, attentive support that pets with extra needs require. My calm demeanor and understanding of pet behavior allow me to build trust quickly, even with shy or nervous animals. Communication is key when someone else is caring for your furry family members, so I prioritize regular updates. I send messages, photos, and videos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel reassured that they’re happy and in great hands. I want you to be able to truly relax while you’re away, knowing your pet is not just being looked after, but genuinely cared for. In addition to being loving and attentive, I’m also well-prepared for emergencies. I stay calm under pressure and know how to respond quickly if something unexpected arises, from minor injuries to more serious situations. This preparedness ensures that your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I strive to create a nurturing, home-like environment filled with comfort, routine, and affection. I genuinely love animals, and that passion comes through in everything I do—from the wag of a tail to the purr of a happy cat, I thrive on making pets feel secure and content. Being a pet sitter is more than a job to me—it’s a privilege, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. 🩵 A little about me: I currently have 3 dogs of my own. One is a senior Chihuahua and the other two are 1 yr old Dobermans. I'm available during the week mornings between 9am and 1pm and evenings between 4:30 and 8pm. I work around my kids school schedules and sports. I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or quiet snuggles. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. You'll get daily updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I have had pets all of my life. Growing up we have always taken in shelter dogs and I continue as an adult to adopt rescue dogs. I have taken in dogs while my friends and family have been away and had dog sat at other peoples homes. I have always had dogs with some anxiety and I am very patient with the pups because I know fear in animals and I just want them to feel safe. I am reliable and very compassionate I currently work part time and have a very flexible schedule. I am available week days and nights and on the weekends. I can work with your a schedule. My yard is not fenced and my dog is trained to stay in the yard. I take my dog Scotty for walks and I use a harness on him. I am very patient as I would be new to your pet and it would take them time to get used to me.

About: I have taken care of family and friend’s dogs for the past 6 years, and I currently am working at a vet hospital and have been in the field for a year in September. Before that I was working at a kennel, as an assistant. I have had a lot of experience with all different types of animals and know how to handle them. I work at a local vet. I am available when needed and if I have work, I can come in during my lunch, before, and after work! I have extra leashes, treats, and toys available that can be brought anywhere I am needed. I have an electric fence at my house, so preferably it would be easier to go to someone else’s home to care for their pets. I will accommodate to the owners needs!

About: I live in the Norwich area with a mostly fenced in yard which our two GSDs love. We also have 3 cats and a pet snake. I love dog sitting and walking because I am full hearted animal lover, I will play with your dog non stop until they get tired and reward their wonderful behavior with all the love and belly rubs possible. I spend hours outside with my dogs and while also taking them to our favorite field and swimming. I want to give other dogs the same opportunities. I have been dog sitting since I was 12, so for over 10 years. I am also comfortable with other pets as well! I’ve also cared for rats, bunnies,and other furry creatures you may have at home! * discount offered to not book with Rover* I have worked with handfuls of pets and I’m willing to learn and listen to what your pets do and don’t like so I can give them the best care possible while following instructions given. I’m currently not working and therefore available during the week days! Weekends can be discussed, but not advertising for booking to spend time with my family I follow your instructions to keep everyone safe, as well as leaving items where you left them so you don’t have to look for them later. I’m also a big animal photographer so I’m always willing to share photos with you!

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).

About: Hello! I’ve taken care of my own pets since I was young, for about 8 years now as well as dog sat my older sisters two dogs and my oldest sisters three cats. I’ve also house sat for my cousins and grandparents various animals over the years and I love it. Meeting new pets warms my heart and brings me comfort as i’m not from the area it would be nice to get to meet some people from the area and make some new furry friends. I currently work full time on weekdays so i’m free after 5:30 to pop over whenever and check in on the pets when needed or give them a walk! I love going on walks with my pets so if you want your pet to get a good walk in i’m your gal! I also really enjoy trying to teach pets new tricks with treats and positive reinforcement, and bathing animals so I offer bathing/groom services if needed.

About: I spent over 15 years caring for my own dog with a heart full of love. As a result of caring for her (as well as other pets including dogs, cats, birds, bunnies and more), I’ve gained experience in pet sitting, dog walking, and providing compassionate care. I've become the go-to buddy for pets when their humans are away. I understand the nuances of different pet personalities and cater to each one's unique needs. Your beloved companion's health, happiness, and tail wags are my top priority! I do work a full time day job (Mon-Fri, 8-4:30). However, I am available anytime after 5 on Fridays and weekend mornings. I’m open to providing services outside these specified days/times but that would be on a more as needed basis and would require more communication. I love to discuss your pets needs and see how I can best accommodate, though! I’d love to know a bit about your pet’s personality. Just like people, every pet is different and has specific needs to thrive. My girl was rambunctious early on but chilled out as the years went by. I adjusted as needed but her need for affection always remained. I made sure to modify our interactions to keep her happy. Other pets I’ve cared for have needed lots of playing time, down time with company, specific feedings, medicines or other requirements. Please, tell me all about them :)

About: Hi, I’m Caroline! I’ve had the joy of owning several dogs, and my friends often trust me to care for theirs when they’re away. I’m patient, energetic, and absolutely love going on long walks. Originally from Massachusetts, I now spend most of my time in Connecticut. When your dog is with me, you can be sure they’ll get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I enjoy visiting parks, walking paths, and trails, and I’m happy to match any dog’s energy level—whether they love staying active or prefer some cozy cuddle time. I’m here to provide loving care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and even light cleaning if needed. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’d love the chance to spend quality time with yours! During the week, I have a lot of flexibility working remote so I can be around in the mornings, afternoons or evenings. Additionally, on the weekends I am almost always available! I will treat your home as if it was mine. I am clean and professional and will follow any instructions provided for your dogs needs.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is trying to be every dogs best friend. I've taken care puppies to senior dogs. (Bathing, Feeding, Walking). I am currently available (Monday-Sunday). There is no time limit meaning I can watch the dogs early morning hours, afternoon, evening and even over night! I care for pets in my clients home by respecting the owners wishes. For example I had a client request their dog stay downstairs so the dog stayed downstairs. Also following their regular schedule.

Liz is an amazing, reliable and trustworthy pet sitter! I highly recommend Liz to care for your pets. She is incredible with my dogs and cats, including our dog Murphy who is extremely nervous and afraid of new people; they all love spending time with Liz. Leaving my dogs behind when we go on vacation is always sad but knowing they are in such great hands is comforting.

To Whom This May Concern, I am writing this letter on behalf of my sister Patrice Carrignan in regards to her potential employment with rover. I would like to offer my enthusiastic recommendation for Patrice as I believe she would be an asset and responsible team member for your agency. Throughout her life I have watched her grow within each work environment as a reliable and professional employee. Animals have always been a passion for Patrice growing up as she has had her own Dogs that she has raised and taken great care of. Her personality is bubbly, friendly and loving to everyone around her. The amount of happiness I see within her while working with at the animal shelter shows her compassion to help within this field. I trust her to care for my pets and she would be a great choice to care for yours to.

Tirzah is a great dog sitter, I have two chihuahua mixes and they are super anxious all the time especially when I’m not there, and she is a great help in getting them to calm down and behave while I’m gone! She’s punctual and listens well to directions and my dogs love her :)

About: I spent over 15 years caring for my own dog with a heart full of love. As a result of caring for her (as well as other pets including dogs, cats, birds, bunnies and more), I’ve gained experience in pet sitting, dog walking, and providing compassionate care. I've become the go-to buddy for pets when their humans are away. I understand the nuances of different pet personalities and cater to each one's unique needs. Your beloved companion's health, happiness, and tail wags are my top priority! I do work a full time day job (Mon-Fri, 8-4:30). However, I am available anytime after 5 on Fridays and weekend mornings. I’m open to providing services outside these specified days/times but that would be on a more as needed basis and would require more communication. I love to discuss your pets needs and see how I can best accommodate, though! I’d love to know a bit about your pet’s personality. Just like people, every pet is different and has specific needs to thrive. My girl was rambunctious early on but chilled out as the years went by. I adjusted as needed but her need for affection always remained. I made sure to modify our interactions to keep her happy. Other pets I’ve cared for have needed lots of playing time, down time with company, specific feedings, medicines or other requirements. Please, tell me all about them :)

Jocelyn was great! She was as able to come to our house last minute and gave our pups and cat lots of play and attention. I will definitely contact her again.

Caroline is one of the best Rover sitters, that I have left my pets with. Considering I have 2 rather large labs, finding a sitter can sometimes be daunting, this being said I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter to not only take care of them for the weekend; but provide them with a safe environment. Caroline also sent me photos of my 2 pets a few times a day. I would definitely recommend Caroline to sit your animals!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is trying to be every dogs best friend. I've taken care puppies to senior dogs. (Bathing, Feeding, Walking). I am currently available (Monday-Sunday). There is no time limit meaning I can watch the dogs early morning hours, afternoon, evening and even over night! I care for pets in my clients home by respecting the owners wishes. For example I had a client request their dog stay downstairs so the dog stayed downstairs. Also following their regular schedule.
