“I would 10/10 recommend Jillian. Our first time meeting she did awesome with my dog and her experience with dogs and training really shows. I’ve never seen my dog so responsive and attentive to commands or behaving properly before. If you ask for any tips Jillian has plenty of experience and showed me how to get the best out of my dog. After the walk, my dog plopped right down on the floor and got ready to nap. I definitely will use Jillian in the future for any dog care needs.”
“I am so glad we found Vanessa!! She is amazing with our senior pup. We have been booking with her for walks weekly and she is super communicative and reliable, always sends sweet photos, and is extremely trustworthy. I don’t know what we would do without her!”
“One of the best! Updated me the whole time my doggie was on a walk and came with last minute notice. Will definitely be booking more walks!! Muffin was satisfied 😇”

About: Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. From a young age, I naturally took on the responsibility of helping care for my family’s dogs, making sure they were fed, exercised, groomed, and given plenty of attention and affection. Providing a safe, loving, and structured environment has always been important to me. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all temperaments, including administering medication, basic grooming, and supporting rescue and rehoming efforts. I’ve personally rescued several animals and understand the patience, compassion, and consistency they need to feel secure and happy. I joined Rover because working with animals truly brings me joy. You can trust that your pet will be treated like family and cared for with the same love, responsibility, and attention I give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m home full-time caring for my baby and my own dogs. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m able to follow your pet’s routine closely and make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and never left alone for long periods. With a flexible schedule and a calm home environment, I can give each pet the time, care, and companionship they deserve. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with close supervision at all times. I follow each pet’s routine carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions or medications, to help them feel secure and stress-free. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and safe space to relax or play. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their normal routine to keep things familiar and comfortable. I treat every pet and home with the same care and responsibility as I would my own, so owners can feel confident their pets are in safe, loving hands.
About: My professional journey in pet-sitting and dog-walking officially began in 2021 when I joined the team at David's Pet Services. It was an incredible experience to work with them for nearly two years, but due to my relocation to a different part of Connecticut, I had to step away from my role there. I had the pleasure of serving over 50 clients, gaining valuable expertise in various aspects of pet care. I have worked with small, medium, and large dogs, as well as providing attentive care to cats. Additionally, I have extensive experience with special needs and senior pets, ensuring their comfort and well-being. Basic puppy training, de-escalation techniques, and administering oral medications are also among my areas of expertise. I am well-versed in accommodating special instructions and routines to meet the unique needs of each pet. I have even cared for exotic pets, such as birds, fish, and guinea pigs! *I hold pet first aid/CPR certification, ensuring that I am prepared to handle any unforeseen situations and provide immediate care in emergencies* Feel free to request your visit and I will make it a priority to fulfill that request. I respond very quickly to messages so if I cannot accommodate your request, you will know almost immediately. I understand the importance of a consistent routine for your furry companions - therefore, I am dedicated to tailoring my services to meet the specific requirements of each individual client. I firmly believe that every household and every pet is unique, with their own distinct needs and preferences. I understand that pets are cherished members of the family, and I approach every interaction with the understanding that their well-being is of the highest importance. From tailoring exercise routines to accommodate different fitness levels and goals, to providing a safe and nurturing environment, I am committed to delivering the highest standard of care and providing peace of mind to the pet owner.

South End dog parents share their Rover experiences
Shane was awesome! I reached out to him at the last minute, and he got right back to me and was very responsive throughout the whole process. You could tell by the way he responded to Louiethat he loves dogs annd enjoys getting to know them for all their quirks. He seems very eager to grow his business, and I can assure folks that he is a great option, very reliable, attentive and insightful.
Laura is amazing. She was a godsend when I was visiting CT and needed help with the dogs. Great walker and wonderful with the dogs care. When we had a potty accident she not only helped but also brought chicken, pumpkin and rice for my fur babies to help him get over his sick tummy. Can't beat her attention or ability to handle multiple dogs at once.
I enjoyed working with Anna she is amazing, she was like an angel that helped me with Nola when I was having a really rough and overwhelming time. She has beautiful and calm spirit. Nola enjoyed her and looked forward to walks with her everyday. I highly recommend her. Thank you Anna.
