About: I have helped raise 3 litters of puppies, and I have extensive experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, temperaments, and abilities from my time as a pet parent and volunteer at my local animal shelter. I am currently in graduate school and work part time, leaving the majority of my days and weekends available to care for your furry friend! I am a lifelong animal lover, and given my active lifestyle, I am able to keep up with even the highest energy animals! I am also very detail-oriented, meaning that I can anticipate your animal’s needs and give them a similar experience to their day-to-day routine with you.

“Melanie made a great first impression for us! She extended thoughtful details, did a pre-meet / greet, and connected with my pup well! (he’s a hyper boy, and can be fearful/bark w new people). She arrives on time and puts us at ease knowing Blue will be well cared for. Grateful for weekly walks.”

About: I’m a 21 year old veterinary science student, with two pits that I absolutely adore!! I got Disney at the start of Covid and had to resocialize him all over again afterwards. Then we decided he needed friend. I’ve had experience with fleas, ticks, emergency vet visits- You name it! I love any and all animals, though I understand that each pet is different and has their own set of needs. I am willing to do whatever it takes to keep your baby safe and healthy, I’ll treat them as my own!! ☺️ I work a part time job so I have more than enough free time to care for and play with your pet!! When I am not caring for your pet I’m probably caring for my own! Food, walks, coconut oil rubdown, tucked under the blanket you name it! I recognize that everyone’s schedule varies! I am great at following set routines. So if that means your dog needs to be walked fed and play with within 30 minutes I guarantee you within that 30 minutes will be well done. I will always leave your home and pet cleaner than I found them .

About: I love dogs as the oversized babies that they are. I love to play with them and go on hikes. It’s great to have a little buddy around. I work full time but looking forward to walking dogs after or before work. I’m looking forward to having a companion while hosting dogs on my days off I’m very attentive and engaging. I am adaptable to each dogs personality and energy levels. Whether it’s a cozy day watching tv and cuddling on the couch or out and about on a hike.

About: I have over 10 years of personal dog care experience, and am currently a dog mom of an adorable and energetic husky/lab mix! Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and provide overnight care for their pets. I work in the environmental field and am currently on the job hunt, so I'll have plenty of quality time to spend with your pets! My schedule is very flexible; I am typically available any day of the week/weekend, given 1-2 days' notice. I care for pets exclusively in their own homes, where they’re most comfortable. I take safety and trust very seriously by following all instructions, maintaining secure environments, and respecting household routines and cleanliness. I’m happy to accommodate crates, special needs, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: I grew up in a household full of pets!! As a Yale graduate student now, I offer dog sitting in my building and am looking for more opportunities to support myself this semester while doing something that I love! I have class Mondays (all day) and Tuesday mornings and work Wednesdays. I am available most Tuesday afternoons, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. Schedule may vary around exam periods. I have no pets myself in my apartment and lots of time to provide great care. I am able to hang out, walk, feed, play, and socialize with your pet when you need!

“I was new to the area and needed a dog walker within a few days notice. And somehow got lucky enough to stumble upon Mary Rose’s profile. She’s incredibly sweet and responsive, and truly loves animals. Whether it be just a walk in the neighborhood or staying overnight, I truly have zero worries about leaving my dog and two cats. You can tell she loves what she does. Although she’d say she was the lucky one, pretty sure I win! :)”

“Azeen looked after our yellow lab while we were on vacation. She was terrific. She walked him twice a day, took him swimming, dried him off, and looked after his needs. She even helped with our pool, and turned on our AC on the final day. I highly recommend her, and would not hesitate to use her again. She's also very friendly”

About: as a dog lover since birth, i use any opportunity i can to be around pups. after graduating college, i moved to denver (the ultimate dog heaven) and was a rover sitter for a few years! i also watched my boss’s 3 big dogs (and 2 birds) while she was out of town, so i have experience handling multiple animals at once :). I am currently a nursing student at Yale, so i am doing this when i can for some extra $$ and happiness ☺️🐶. I promise to take care of your pet like it’s my own! If you are interested, I would be happy to meet in person or on facetime and discuss logistics. I am currently a nursing student at yale and have class/ clinicals monday-wednesday this semester. i am free thursday-sunday for house sitting or walking as needed! since i cannot have pets in my apartment, my services currently include home visits and walks. i know how stressful being home alone for long periods of time can be for some dogs, so i will be there on time always. if needed, i am also happpy to stay overnight in your home while you are out of town if that makes you most comfortable!

About: I absolutely love taking care of animals! I have owned dogs, cats, rabbits, and hamsters. I enjoy an active lifestyle and am able to meet the exercise needs of any pet. Depending on your dog and their abilities, I can provide tons of outdoor time. I usually do around 45 minutes to 1 hour long walk in the morning, with another long walk or fun outdoor activity in the afternoon (swimming, hiking, fetch in the park, etc). I live in a single-family home with my sister Alexis. I work full-time, but have a hybrid work schedule and have many days/mornings/afternoons where I am able to work from home. I can accommodate different schedules and times for drop-offs and pick-ups with enough notice. My sister works full-time from 7am-3:30pm, so your pup won't spend too much time alone. I do not work on the weekends and therefore am free to take your pup to different spots to play! I have a small yard that is partially fenced, but am also able to take your dog on long walks in the neighborhood. Let me know if your dog can go off-leash, or if they should remain leashed or in fenced-in areas. I do have a long line (30ft) that can be used with your dog so they can explore and run while still being leashed.

“Paul was just perfect for my needs. He walked my two Welsh Corgi's while I was away. He was always prompt, courteous and considerate. My pups grew to like him a lot, and the walking became and happy for them. My husband, who remained at home during this trip, was very pleased. Thank you Paul!”

Sophia is the best dog sitter and walker we have ever come across. She stayed at our place with our 11 year old Puggle, Finn, for 10 days while we were in Italy and we had absolutely no worries. She was so attentive and caring towards him, and always reached out to us with questions, updates and pictures. It’s very obvious that Sophia is a natural with animals and that they sense they can trust her. Recently, we had her watch/feed/walk both Finn and our daughter’s Australian Shepherd, Ava, who can be a handful around strangers and other dogs but Ava took to Sophia immediately. We trust Sophia implicitly and I think you will find that to be true, too. You’ll make the best decision by entrusting your pets in her care!

Nancy was immediately loved by my pit mix Cheebs. He is very selective about his people but warmed up to Nancy so quickly, which made us knew we can trust her. She’s great with our guy, loves on him like he’s her own. She’s stayed in our home and done a few walks and we know we can count on her. Thank you, Nancy!

My dog can be picky with strangers, but she loves Yunwen. Yunwen is super sweet—she took my pup to a big grassy field to play, and brought water so she could drink on the way. I could tell my pup was super happy and relaxed after the walk. Yunwen is reliable, and genuinely cares about dogs. I’d 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a great walker!

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Quinnipiac.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.

Note: If your dog walker requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
