About: Hi there! I’m Diana. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced with small to medium sized dogs with different personalities at varying ages from 1yrs-13yrs. I provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and basic grooming. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every pet like my own, making sure they always feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I understand how much your fur babies mean to you, and I’m dedicated to giving them the same care and affection you would Pet care fits naturally into my routine — I love spending time with animals. I’m available for daily or weekly care Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 9am–7pm. I provide pet care in my client’s home, ensuring pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment.

“Last week was the first time I had Andrew watch my two boys and boy am I happy that I picked him…and so are the boys! Andrew did a wonder job! He spent extra time with my cats and sent detailed updates with pics every day. He made me very secure in the knowledge that my boys were being well cared for. I look forward to having Andrew take care of my boys in the future!”
About: I loved playing with my neighbors' dogs since I was a kid, and I got my first dog when I was a graduate student. I also rescued two small little dogs without a full moon and brought them up. I'm currently a postdoc at Mount Sinai. But my dogs are not around, I really miss the happy time surrounded by dogs, if you would like to let me play with your dog, that would be my honor. I'm available after 2pm on Friday and weekends. Please tell me in detail what good or bad habits your pet has and what I need to be aware of. It'll make it easier for me to take care of them, and it'll give us a pleasant memory❤️. My pet's diet is timed and rationed according to weight. Make sure he have fresh water to drink every day. Take him out for a walk every afternoon to make sure he gets enough exercise. At home, I play puzzle games with him so that he won't feel lonely.

“I found that Chloe communicates well, follows instructions, has a good demeanor with my dog and seems sincerely interested in providing him with the best possible care.”
About: I was a proud dog mom for over 20 years. While my beloved pups have since crossed the rainbow bridge, my love for dogs has never faded. I enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand the importance of providing them with patience, attention, and care. I would love the opportunity to treat your furry family member as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so caring for them is something I genuinely look forward to each day. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions and respect each pet’s unique personality, routine, and boundaries. I believe patience and consistency are important in building trust. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. Whether that means playtime, belly rubs (if they’re willing!), companionship, or long walks when weather and the pet’s needs allow, I will provide attentive care and treat them as if they were my own.
“Rachel was super easy to communicate with and responsive. She constantly updated me with photos and was able to accommodate for me last minute. I am super grateful to have found her profile on here and I will definitely book again with her in the future”
“Philsung went above and beyond to take care of Petey. During this snowstorm, he walked the rest of the way to my apartment when his car got stuck. When you’re not able to be there with your dog, it’s a terrible feeling, I was so worried Philsung would not be able to make it there but he did. That’s reliability and dedication and a true love for animals. He is an excellent sitter.”

About: I am very reliable, punctual, trustworthy, and flexible! I love dogs, but never had to chance to have one since I grew up with a mom being terrified of dogs. However, that didn't stop me from spending time with dogs and animals outside of my home. I have had some experience volunteering at the local animal shelter in college and have done multiple dog sittings for my friends and neighbors. I already enjoy walking around the city and would love to have your pupper around for additional company!

I also can petsit cats too! I will follow all instructions and will adhere to any specific requests you may have for your pet!

I will make sure to adhere to any specific instructions you may have, whether it's keeping your dog away from other dogs, or ensuring your home is appropriately locked up after my visit.
“Stephanie was terrific with my cat Coco. I’m very happy to have her take care of my cat when we go on vacation. Very reliable and has a good sense with animals. Coco is not the friendliest kitty out there! I definitely will be rebooking with Stephanie each time we go away!”

Sam is the best! My two boys are getting to be in their senior years and are very different. Jimmy is on the bigger side around 40 pounds and rambunctious and Dwight is on the smaller side around 25 pounds and pretty lazy. Sam interacted and loved both boys and was so lovely and attentive on his visits to feed them while we were away on vacation. We are so glad to have found Sam 😌
Luz is an amazing pet sitter. She is very sweet with our French Bulldog and British Short Hair. She is extremely professional, courteous, and clean! She communicates professionally as well. We have booked with Luz multiple times and will definitely book with her again in the future. I can’t recommend her enough.
Rachel was an amazing pet sitter for my babies! When I arrived home, everything was spotless, clean, and well taken care of. My dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly received lots of love and attention while I was away. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!
Tiffany is a wonderful pet sitter! She did 3 drop in visits for our dog Truman and she was on-time, attentive and very responsive! She has great attention to detail clearly loves dogs - she's an all-star! We look forward to having her back. Thank you so much, Tiffany!
Kaosi was amazing and we absolutely recommend her and plan to book again. Sebastian loved her and she was very attentive to his needs and updating my family on how he was doing each day. We felt comfortable with her and have no complaints, she followed all of our instructions and was very pleasant during the meet and greet. Book Kaosi!
Wen was just amazing to work with during my family vacation! It was the first long vacation we’ve ever had because we worried about our fur babies. But after met Wen before booking, she was knowledgeable and professional for dog and cat. She send us lot of pictures and comments if needed and always arrived the time we were discussed. We will definitely ask her later to care our fur family! Thank you so much for your work and care. 🙏
Emily was absolutely wonderful with Brady! She was reliable, caring, and truly went above and beyond while watching him. She provided thoughtful updates and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Brady was happy, comfortable, and genuinely well cared for the entire time. Knowing he was treated with so much love and attention made all the difference. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and professional pet sitter.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Ridgefield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Ridgefield choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Ridgefield with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
