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.
“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!”


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.
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.
“We were very happy that Nicole could spend a few hours with Buster today! He loves to hang out with her and we are able to enjoy a day out without worry.”

“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.”


“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!!!!”

“Chris did a great job taking care of my dogs while i was away on a work trip. We did a meet and greet beforehand where he asked a lot of good questions. During the stay he kept me closely updated on how my dogs were doing and sent a lot of pics which was nice. Would definitely recommend. Professional and a big dog lover.”

“Nicole was great with Sky and Sid! She was super communicative, asked great questions, and sent us lots of updates and photos throughout the day. It was such a comfort knowing they were well cared for. Would definitely recommend!”
“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 saved the day with taking care of our sweet 13 week old puppy Tony! She did an awesome job training him, keeping our home clean, and giving us the most precious updates all day. Definitely went the extra mile every step of the way. Could not recommend her enough!”

“Amazing! Can’t thank you enough- above and beyond my expectations! I booked last minute labor weekend Vacation and Cinthia was able to not just accommodate the stay but also to come and meet and Greet. Justin has a very high Anxiety level without treating any Medication, An escape artist and very Suspicious.. It was great the way he clicked with Cinthia and felt comfortable she kept sending pictures and descriptions of the day. Highly recommended❤️?”

“Emma did an amazing job taking care of our almost two year old pup. She clearly has a natural ability with animals and put my mind at ease from the moment we met her. She was great at absorbing and following our directions and was very communicative during our trip, sending lovely updates and photos. Our dog was clearly and well cared for throughout and we have already booked Emma for another getaway. Very happy to have found her!”


“Shannon is a responsible, kind and trustworthy caretaker of Ziggy, our doodle. She was very attentive of Ziggy, helpful in preparing his meals (which involves cooking), and sent me plenty of updates. Ziggy is not a dog who trusts easily, but he loved Shannon from the get go. Shannon stayed at my house for a few nights and was a lovely house guest. I am relieved to have found her and cannot say enough great things about her!”

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.
“Destiny was fantastic! She accepted our request on short notice and was amazing with our new puppy and older cat. She was very communicative, responsive and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely reach out to her again and recommend her highly!”

“They left our house nicer than how they found it! Extremely thoughtful and thorough and our boys were very well taken care of and very happy. Thank you guys!”


“Vlad house sat for our 80 lbs 5yo pit bull and two cats. He sent us photos in the morning, afternoon and evening so we could see what they had been up to and were reassured the pets were doing well during our long trip. Vlad took our dog on many long walks so Dexter was very tired by the time we got home. ? I think Dexter missed Vlad when he left. Vlad was also there when we got home so we knew the pets weren’t left alone for long during the transition time, which is when Dexter usually destroys pillows ?. Vlad is absolutely fabulous!! We have already booked him again!!”
“Andrea is incredibly attentive and always puts me at ease while I'm away! She sends adorable pictures of my kitty, sends updates every day and I can tell when I get home that she's been treated like a queen. So grateful to have someone I can trust looking after my home and my girl!”

“Joe was not kidding when he said he will be your dogs “new best friend”! My pup loved him! They went through a heat wave together and Joe was very careful to make sure Harry was hydrated and happy even in the extreme heat. Joe sent lots of pictures so I knew that Harry was well cared for. 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 ❤️

Anastasia dog sat our dachshund for 2 weeks and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable. She is warm and friendly and a great communicator. She spent a lot of time with our dog during the day which is what we wanted and he actually seemed tired when we returned which was a relief and we were happy he wasn’t in his crate for long stretches. Our dog really loved her and I loved getting pictures of them snuggling on the couch. I was able to relax and not worry about his care and him being left in crate unstimulated for most of our time away which made me so happy. Our dog can be nervous at first with new people and she patient with him. Highly recommend and will use again!

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!
