“Absolutely excellent. I would recommend her to anyone. Great communication, lots of pics of my boy Nathan. If I ever have enough money to take a vacation, she will definitely be my first choice for boarding too!! This was my first experience using Rover and I am very happy with them and Leviena. Thank you so much, Steve Fedun. Seymour, CT.”
About: I have grown up with large dogs (Dobermans, Pitties, Mastiffs) my entire life. I have been rescuing Pitties for over 20yrs and am currently on my fourth rescue. I am experienced with medication administration, special needs and, all ages of dogs from newborn to senior. I have an hour lunch break and, am free after 3pm daily and, all day every other wknd! I care for my 3 pets and can't wait to get home and see them! I work 7-3 most days but, my dog is yard trained so, can be let out multiple times when I am not at home. Once I do get home, we head out for a walk and then, its dinner time! All of my animals are allowed on my furniture and, choose who's bed they sleep in each night!
“Catherine took wonderful care of my boys, 2 large male cats, on 2 separate occasions. What I particularly appreciated so very much was that when I came home after being away, they were very calm and not at all needy, which is a sure sign to me that they were well taken care of. It was just so reassuring to me to know that! I will be using Catherine regularly in the future!”
About: I grew up with a yellow lab that I cared for throughout my childhood. I now have 2 amazing rescue labs Ellie and Bobby that get along really well with other dogs. I also volunteer with Companion Pet Rescue. I am flexible with my schedule on the weekends and will try my best to accommodate your needs. Just let me know what services you are looking for and I will confirm my availability. I have a fenced in yard which my dogs love to play in. I also take them for walks, runs, or hikes! My home is very clean and quiet. Making it a safe space for your pets that you can feel comfortable leaving them.
“Aisaia comes often to check in on my dogs while I’m at work. He’s always reliable, on time, and spends a little extra time with my dogs. I would definitely recommend him and will continue to book with him!”
“Ian did a wonderful job with my dogs. He was so calm and caring with them, they took to him immediately. He also gave a timely & thorough report of his visit with them. Thanks Ian!!”
About: Hi! I have had a lot of dogs over the years! I have 6 years of experience. I have always had 5 dogs at once in my home that I have fostered from bad living experiences! Over the years I have always watched dogs and pet sit friends and family’s dogs and anyone else who needs a dog sitter. I have always had such a love for dogs and always treat them like they are my child! I treat them like there my own. I love animals so much and I can’t wait to give yours the unconditional love! I am currently a college student at Eastern Connecticut State University. My days are usually packed from Tuesday to Thursday. Friday to Monday I have mainly all day free. I am willing to take your dogs on walks as long as you need me to walk them or sit in your home and watch your dog as long as you may need me, if you need me to stay overnight I can do that as well!
About: I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable dog lover who works from home, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I’m patient, attentive to each dog’s individual needs, and committed to making every pup feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Since I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have flexibility for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention. I provide attentive, loving care with regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. My home also has a secure, fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time.
“Zarah was great with Loki! I was nervous using Rover due to it being my first time but it turns out to be such a relief because Loki was left in the care of someone who truly loves animals . I definitely plan on having Zarah watch Loki for my next trip.”
“Jen helped me medicate my difficult orange boy cat Kiwi. She also cleaned his eyes several times and fed him churus to appease him. She did a great job, was punctual and reliable, and bonded with my cats. Highly recommended! I would hire her again without a doubt.”
“Lauryn did a great job for us by feeding our dog, and taking him for quick walks 2x a day. She also came over during a major storm, and checked the house for us when we lost power. She informed us of anything needed and did a great job communicating with us for anything if needed. Thanks very much!”
“Stephanie was amazing with my kitties! I have two cats with varying medical needs, and Stephanie rose to the challenge with no issues. She adapted to deal with my hard-to-pill fussy cat, and had no reservations about caring for our senior kitty with incontinence issues. She was always prompt and communicative. I was able to have a relaxing long weekend away thanks to her.”
About: I am passionate about animals, taking care of them, loving them, especially since they are not able to communicate for themselves. Dogs are amazing creatures and full of unconditional love and being with them every day is a pure joy and doesn't feel like a job. I go above and beyond to take care of these animals, which are family. I am very loving, kind, reliable, dependable and enjoy being with dogs, petting them, being affectionate with them and taking care of them is very rewarding. This is not just a job for me, it is a passion and a joy to be with dogs of all kinds, walking with them, taking care of them, talking to them is very rewarding. Thank you very much. I’m available for pet care because pet care is my full time job and it’s my passion for the past decade and I love it I will care for them as you tell me too. I give lots of love and care and petting. Animals love to be pet continually
About: *UPDATED 6/25 (I will gladly overly love and take care of all the animals I've learned 🙈🤣 if not comfortable with your animal getting attention x10...I'm not your girl 🤣 I set this up randomly one day with spare time wanting to work with animals and not wanting to full time do it, come to my surprise that has not been the case...I currently walk two AMAZING elderly dogs 3x a week and am very strict on breeds I'm willing to board after 2 boarding situations with the most amazing sweet dogs and one that made my animals want to abandon me 🙈🤣 if requesting boarding or day care please understand if I decline requests from breeds I'm hesitant about my dog and 2 cats being comfortable with ❤️ always up for a meet and greet before deciding!)* I was raised with Border Collies, Maltese, German Shepards, Norwegian Elk hounds, between fostering, personal pets and caring for friends/families pets. Cared for and hand fed puppies my whole life as well as cared for senior dogs needing a slower, more loving pace in their later years. I run my own business and work from home allowing me a lot more free time and flexibility than most in and outside my home for care. I have 2 very smart and sweet cats (1 years old and 4 years old) as well as a 10 year old Norwegian Elk Hound. All 3 are more than accustomed to random animals being in and out of the home as anyone with animals that comes over is more than welcome and encouraged to bring them along. Animals are children and completely apart of the family in our world and household. Capable of crating animals yet prefer freedom for the babies if possible. *BONUS happy if great off leash staying with humans and our dog!*
About: Hi! I've been dog-sitting for the past six years but I've also been around dogs my whole life. My family has always had one or two dogs since I was young, and I adopted my furr-baby, a black lab, border collie mix, when he was a puppy. I have experience with all types of dogs from an eight year old bichon frise to a two year old boxer-pitbull, elderly dogs that need medication and everything in between. I'm very active and enjoy walking/jogging (depending on the dog) and playing with the pups I'm watching. I absolutely love dogs and love dog-sitting as a way to spend time with pups while my dog is out of state with my parents for the time being (will be moving at the end of the year so he’s spending some time with his grandparents ☺️). Let me know if you have any questions! Look forward to hearing from you and making some new doggy friends! Thanks! I work from home and am able to give my pup (and yours!) lots of attention. AM and afternoon walks. Lots of potty breaks and PM hikes and dog park adventures. This is a very dog-friendly house and they’re welcome on furniture and beds. My dog is with my parents right now but my apartment is basically his with many parks and trails close by.
About: I’ve dog sat and walked for multiple families and cared for cats for 10+ years. I am looking to help local families with pet care I work fully remote and have a flexible schedule so I am able to assist in mornings, during the day, and evening regularly and consistently I have two cats at my apartment currently and have owned pets my entire life. For dogs or cats that I sit, I ensure a safe environment to meet every family’s needs
“Couldn’t have asked for a better dog walker/sitter while I was away in New Jersey for the first evening. I checked In on the cameras and she was cleaning crates and playing with the pups! Thanks so much will definitely use you again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Seymour
Extremely pleased with the service we received Leviena. It was our first time leaving our 10 month old puppy for more than a couple hours and we were very nervous! Leviena was amazing with our baby - from the original meet & greet she eased concerns & Zoe warmed up to her quickly. Our first experience using Leviena went great - she communicated with us throughout the day and sent many pictures - Zoe had a wonderful day! We will definitely be using Leviena again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Seymour is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 3,046 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Seymour. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Seymour. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
