“Stefanie was amazing! Always kept me updated and was so communicative. My kitty cat loved her and I would absolutely recommend her in the future! An amazing sitter.”

“Hallie did a wonderful job checking in on our cat Biscuits while we were away for a week. I loved the daily reports and photos she sent, and she even watered my plants, which was so nice! It was such a relief to know our cat was in excellent hands while we were out of town, and I can only hope she’s available next time we need someone to check in on Biscuits! Thank you so much, Hallie!”

“Annabel is an excellent sitter; she hit it off with our cats right away, and took great care of them while we were away for 3 nights. We would have her take care of our cats again!”

About: I'm Steven, a former science teacher who turned a lifelong love of animals into full-time pet care. I've cared for my own dogs for years (John, a Yorkie, and Lucy, my senior Chihuahua) and have looked after friends' and neighbors' dogs, cats, and small pets for as long as I can remember. I'm Fear Free Certified and Red Cross Pet First Aid & CPR certified, and I'm fully insured and bonded. Teaching taught me patience, routine, and how to read what someone needs when they can't say it in words, which is exactly what good pet care takes. Every booking is handled personally by me, so you'll always know who's showing up at your door. I do this full-time, so your pet is a priority, not a side gig. For house sitting I keep your pet on their normal routine, same feeding times, walks, and bedtime, and I send photo and text updates throughout so you can relax while you're away. I follow feeding and medication instructions exactly (I give my own senior dog her meds on a strict schedule, so I take it seriously). Every booking starts with a free meet & greet so your pet and I are comfortable before anything is confirmed. Since I come to you, your pet stays in their own home, familiar surroundings, their own bed and yard, which keeps them calmest, especially seniors and anxious pets. I treat your home with respect: doors locked, mail brought in, plants watered if you'd like, everything left as I found it. I have two dogs of my own, John, a Yorkie, and Lucy, a senior Chihuahua, so I'm comfortable with everything from high-energy pups to gentle senior care.

About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs—young, old, big, small, pullers, you name it. I will take care of your pets as I do my own. I work from home, so I’m available around the clock for taking care of your pets. I live in the Fairfield County area, so I’m available to help you out with your pets! I live in a house with roommates, but I have a floor to myself. I have a cat at home, so I can provide a feline companion during boardings.

About: I truly enjoy caring for animals and treat every pet like family. I have experience looking after dogs and other pets for friends and family, including feeding, walking, playing, and providing lots of attention and affection. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, or require extra care. I’m also comfortable following specific routines and instructions to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available on weekdays and weekends, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Whether your cat needs a quick check-in, feeding, playtime, or companionship, I can adjust to their routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where your pet can feel relaxed and secure. I always follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, and any special instructions. I’m attentive to behavior and make sure your cat feels comfortable, whether they prefer playtime or quiet space. In your home, I respect your space and ensure everything is left just as you expect.

“Kelly did a great job taking care of our two cats! Followed instructions and easy to communicate with. Booked her last minute and it worked out great. Will definitely be using her in the future to take care of our girl :)”


About: I've had three dogs in my life. One turned 17 this year. She's a happy old lady but does require some medications that I have learned to administer and I make sure they are given on time and properly. I enjoy taking my pups on long walks on nice days. Aside from my personal dogs I have spent time house and dog sitting for two other people with various different dog types with different personalities. For one of these people, she is also a dog sitter and I assisted her in one emergency situation where she needed needed me to stay the weekend and care for the five dogs in her care plus her two minor children. I work full time with set hours Monday - Friday. I'm free weekends. Early morning walks are easily done but afternoon walks are after 4. Depending on location, how close a location is to my job, I do have a 30min lunch where I can run out and give a quick walk. For my personal dog I tend to do a good long walk in the morning and another good long walk after 4 to make up for the long day. I've never worried about bathroom accidents with her. I love dogs. That's just a fact. I protect them anyway I can. I have gone out to look for neighborhood lost dogs, I have seen paw prints, but no shoe prints, in the snow during a snow storm and I went out searching for what I was sure was a lost escaped dog. Before leaving my house, I do a scan to make sure there's nothing dangerous out that my dog could access, hanging cords, small items, loose treats, etc... to make sure she's always safe.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Roxbury
Alexandra did a wonderful job of taking care of our furry family of three cats (one elder, one 2-year-old, and one kitten) while we were away for two weeks. She sent us lots of great pictures every day, and when we got back the cats were more playful than before our trip, because of all of the playing they got with Alexandra.

Hanaya made everything so easy! We felt completely comfortable leaving our cats in her care and had so much peace of mind knowing they were being well looked after while we were away. We came home to happy kitties and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’d absolutely book her again and highly recommend her!

Stefanie was absolutely wonderful taking care of my cats! She was very patient, caring, and attentive with them. Every day she kept me updated on how they were doing and sent me pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My cats felt very comfortable and relaxed around her, and that means a lot to me because I really care about who I trust with them. I could tell that she treated them with genuine love and care. I’m very grateful to Stefanie and would definitely trust her to take care of my cats again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone responsible, patient, and loving with their pets! ❤️🐾

Nina is absolutely fantastic! Her communication was excellent, and she provided detailed daily updates with pictures. My cat needs special care, and Nina was extremely responsible and paid close attention to detail of the care routine. She went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again!

Daniela took good care of the cats. Setting up are communications are smooth and easy. Ad hoc requests on unexpected incidents were well taken care of. The house is clean after the sessions. Overall it was a great experience. Will request their help again in the future.

Aashna was reliable, communicative, and thorough while doing a week of drop in visits for our cat! She sent a detailed update of the tasks she completed each day and described what mood our little one was in. We will definitely use Aashna again for future sitting needs!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.

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.
