“This was the second time Nicole stayed at our house with our dog Buster while we were out of town. We were away for 10 days out of the country and we were very worried about Buster because he has stomach issues. Nicole was wonderful with him! She accommodated his routine and made him feel very comfortable. Nicole was very proactive - she noticed Buster having more stomach problems after a few days and she contacted me to discuss it. Medicine from the vet was delivered and Buster was back to normal! Nicole is very sensitive to his needs, and she did not mind when he woke her up one morning at 4am to go out. Having Nicole enabled us to enjoy our vacation, knowing she would address any issues that come up. She will be coming again to stay with Buster soon!”

“We had such an amazing experience with Ashley. She sent great updates and spent quality time with both cats. They clearly loved her. I wasn't worried at all while we were away”


About: I love all pets. I’ve taken care of over seven different dogs ranging from 8 weeks old to 15+. I’ve administered medication orally and topical long walks and assistance after medical procedures. I do not do boarding in my own home. 100% in the comfort of your own home please do not hesitate to reach out for any questions! I am very flexible for any pet care for any questions. Feel free to reach out. I’m available at all times of day and night to make sure our babies are okay I have a dog and cat we feed both twice a day the correct amount needed for them. Our dog goes on a daily walk. Other client care I do whatever the pet parent needs and wants to ensure the safety of their pet and whatever they are comfortable with.

“I cannot recommend Melanie enough. She looked after our senior dog while we were on an extended trip overseas. I received numerous photographs of him looking healthy, happy and loved, and his affection for her was obvious on our return home. Melanie kept our house immaculate and also maintained good contact with us while we were away. She is extremely responsive to emails, punctual, and has an excellent work ethic. I felt extremely comfortable while away knowing Chessie was in her care. THANK YOU!!!!”

“We could not have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we left, she was incredibly communicative, sending multiple updates every day with pictures and videos that truly put our minds at ease. Shelby always looked so happy and comfortable, which meant everything to us. When we returned home, it was spotless. On top of that, when there was a possibility of a flight cancellation, she immediately offered to stay an extra day without hesitation. She is kind, responsible, and genuinely wonderful. We feel so lucky to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for exceptional care for their home and pet. We look forward to her watching Shelby again.”

“Alexandra was great! We left her with our 10 week old kitten and she did an amazing job of keeping him entertained and out of trouble. She sent us lots of updates and went above and beyond to make sure that Bergamot was well cared for. We'll definitely be using her again.”


“Shannon went above and beyond to care for our pups, was super communicative, and handled a last-minute health issue with one of our dogs like a pro. She took fantastic care of our house as well. Highly recommend her for your dog/house sitting needs!”

“Emma was excellent! We have a high energy dog with some behavior problems, so we are always hesitant about leaving him with a sitter. However, Emma made our weekend away so much better because of her consistent communication and reassurance that everything was going well. She is very professional and our dog was in great spirits when we came home which is a sign that he was well cared for. We will definitely use Emma again!!!”

About: I have cared for dogs my entire life and have experience with dogs of different ages and needs. I am dependable, attentive, and passionate about animal care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I currently work from home so I have a lot of free time. Why not spend time with furry friends! It’s also a great opportunity to take a breather and get fresh air during daily dog walks. When caring for pets in a client's home, I ensure that their daily routines are maintained to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I also make sure the home remains clean and secure while providing pets with plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I am attentive to each pet's individual needs and committed to creating a safe, loving environment while their owners are away.
“Kelly was excellent with our new puppy and took care of him so well! She is very experienced and is reliable, responsive, and even kept us updated on how our puppy was doing. We had to go out at last minute and she was so accommodating. We will definitely be working with Kelly again!”

“We came home to two happy and well cared for pups! Our previously booked sitter had to cancel a week before our trip, and we're very grateful to Hanaya for looking after them on such short notice!”

“Joe did a great job taking care of Luna. We felt comfortable that our dog and our house were in good hands. It seemed like Joe really bonded with Luna and that he genuinely enjoys working with animals.”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, administering medications, playtime, overnight care, crate training support, and maintaining regular routines to help pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality, whether that means high-energy exercise, extra patience with shy pets, or senior pet care. I understand the importance of reliability, communication, and providing updates with photos so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets at once and following specific care instructions, including dietary restrictions, medications, and exercise schedules. My goal is always to create a calm, loving, and safe environment for every pet I care for. With an open schedule, I'm able to give pets plenty of attention, consistent care, and flexible availability for last minute walks, drop ins and overnight stays. I treat all pets as cherished family members and provide attentive, experienced care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. My experience includes caring for senior pets, diabetic pets, and animals with special needs, ensuring they receive compassionate, reliable, and knowledgeable support. I understand that your pets are treasured members of your family, and I care for them with the same patience, respect, and love I would give my own.
“Nicole was absolutely wonderful with Winston! She treated him with so much love and care; Winston had a fantastic time and I came home to a happy and relaxed pup, which says everything. It was such a relief to be away for the day knowing he was in such great hands. I'll definitely be booking with Nicole again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who truly goes above and beyond!”

About: I have 3 years of pet-sitting experience. Then I took a 2 years gap for traveling and just came back to Greenwich CT in July. That’s why most of my Rover reviews are from 2 years ago. Have experience with all ages pet including oldest 16 years old senior dog to puppies, also cats. I am totally an animal lover and treat them like my own baby. I will update pet parents everyday with pet’s videos. I own a small neutered Maltese boy who’s only 5 lbs. We stay at home the whole time. We promise that we will give the best care to your pets and look after them with patience and love. We send video updates to pet parents everyday. We have big open spaces in our house. There are multiple big lawns and dog parks in the neighborhood. Pets can run freely at home and play safely outside. We will strictly follow feeding and walking schedule you prefer for your pets. Clean them with wet tissues after each walk and send you daily video updates.
“Crystal was great. She was helpful teaching me about training a husky i recently adopted thos week. My doggie adored her and cat Jackie. She provided pictures. Great sitter who communicated keeping my anxiety at bay. I am using her again.”

“Olivia was amazing with both of our animals! Sent a ton of pictures and even taught our puppy new tricks! She left our home super clean and was very thoughtful and accommodating overall. Will definitely use her again 😊”

“Nicole recently watched our dog, Otis at our house. Otis is nervous around new people and she was very good with him until he got used to her. She was very respectful and responsive. Would book again!”

“Aaliyah stayed with our dog and cat for 5 days while we left the country and made it such an ease. She sent constant updates, checking in with pictures and status updates several times per day, and it was clear that our pets loved her and felt at ease. She always leaves our home spotless and our pets can’t wait to hang with her again soon!”

Nicole does a great job with our 8 year old Golden Retriever. She works from our home, so our dog is not by herself for too much time. We have used Nicole now at least for 3 years for house sitting and also for short pop ins when we are gone just for a day trip. Nicole leaves our house looking clean and in great shape. We will absolutely use Nicole again.

Emma was fantastic to work with from start to finish. We came home to find the house exactly as we left it, and she sent plenty of updates with pictures throughout our stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was incredibly responsive and responsible the entire time. We had zero hesitation leaving our girls in her care, and it was clear they made a new friend — they were so happy with her. Highly recommend!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Maria. She is so intelligent, diligent and kind. She sent us updates regularly and we knew Zeus was well taken care of with Maria. For the first time ever, Zeus was sad to see a dog sitter leave. He sat at the door for hours hoping she would come back. We will hire Maria for all our dog sitting. I highly recommend here. Best dog sitter we have ever had in 5 years.

We cannot thank and recommend Crystal enough! We had booked Crystal as our former pet sitter moved out of state, and like many pet parents, we’re anxious to leave our fur babies with someone new for a week-long trip! Crystal went above and beyond following instructions and providing updates. It’s so clear she loves animals, and we are so thankful we found her!

I am simply amazed at the care that Chris gave to my 2 havanese dogs and 2 kitty’s. It was beyond my expectations. Not only is he a fabulous person himself but he takes care of not only your pets but your home as well. Five stars does not explain his level of service. 10000 out of 10. Chris is truly one of a kind. He is simply fantastic ❤️

Alexa was so communicative and attentive. Our pups loved having her stay with them. Even in an emergency, Alexa cared for our pups in the same way we would have and it made us feel better knowing they were being taken such good care of. Will absolutely be using her services in the future!

If you want to leave your dogs with someone and never worry at all about their mental well-being, their feeding needs, their exercise then you need to hire Jesse as your sitter. He's taken my care of my dogs for many days and I will say there is no better. Not only were my dogs, completely relaxed and happy, but my house was also immaculate and every instruction was followed to the tee, including the complicated medical things that one of my dog needs to have followed. Jesse is all around the best I've had!

On top of that, when there was a possibility of a flight cancellation, she immediately offered to stay an extra day without hesitation. She is kind, responsible, and genuinely wonderful. We feel so lucky to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for exceptional care for their home and pet. We look forward to her watching Shelby again.
