“I seriously can’t say enough good things about Ifan! I have used him countless times!! He’s amazing with Drew and just gets him and all of his little quirks. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing Drew is with someone who knows exactly how to handle him and makes sure he’s having the best time. Drew always comes home absolutely exhausted (which is a huge plus 😂) and wearing the cutest bandanas around his neck. It’s the little things! I’m so happy I found someone I can trust with Drew, and I couldn’t recommend him more!”
“Alan and Luis took fantastic care of our dog Maggie while we were on vacation. We received multiple daily photos. The photos assured us that Maggie was having fun and therefore we enjoyed our vacation that much more knowing that she was well taken care of. We will definitely use Alan and Luis again!!!”
“Loved Jennifer! She was awesome and met me in the park to introduce Cooper to some of the other dogs she was currently watching prior to the stay. She gave regular updates and did a great job with socializing Cooper with other dogs. She is a great photographer and put together an album of the week. Loved her and wouldn’t use any other sitter!”
“This was Bodhi’s second stay with Katie and her family. They took wonderful care of him and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who will treat your pet with loving care and attention.”
“Rosmery was wonderful with our fur baby! I received many pictures and videos of Lana. Her and her family made feel our pup like home! Definitely, we will bring Lana back.”
“Ricky takes care of our boys like his own. He lives a little far away, but I don’t mind driving there because I can go do my things with peace of mind when my kids are with him.”
“Luka stayed with Greg for 23 days. I got pictures, videos, and updates throughout his stay which gave me a peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely have Greg take care of Luka again.”
“Angela and Tommy were fantastic with our fur baby. They sent pictures and were responsive and best of all our dog is happy. We felt very at ease. Would use them again!”
“I recently had Gail take care of my dog, Dior, for a week while I was on vacation. The bond Gail and her dog Ginger formed with Dior was heartwarming. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog, providing plenty of love and attention. Dior came home happy and well-exercised, which is a testament to the great care they received. Safety was a top priority for me, and I felt completely at ease knowing Gail was watching over my pet. [He/She/They] followed all instructions regarding feeding and I appreciated the regular updates and photos that kept me in the loop. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my experience with Gail. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
“Dash had a wonderful week long stay at Renata’s home. Plenty of exercise and outdoor time on their beautiful property on the lake. Would absolutely trust to take care of our dog again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Ashley is truly exceptional, deserving of more than just five stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. This was my initial experience with Rover and hiring a pet sitter, and I must admit I was quite apprehensive about entrusting our beloved pet to a stranger. However, I am immensely thankful to have discovered Ashley. She is outstanding! I am delighted to have found a pet sitter whom I will rely on indefinitely. She treated our pet as if it were her own, providing regular updates throughout the stay. Her transparency, courtesy, understanding, and willingness to accommodate our needs were remarkable. I wholeheartedly recommend Ashley to anyone seeking exceptional care for their pet.”
“We are so grateful for Philippe! He watched our dogs for an extended amount of time and we couldn’t be happier with the service we received and neither could our dogs. Our Goldendoodle was very anxious but due to Philippe dog handling he’s come back much more relaxed and easier to handle. We will continue to use Philippe as long as he’s available snd we highly recommend him to anyone and everyone who wants peace of mind that their dogs will be taken care of with love and care!”
“Judy was a great dog sitter. I was a little nervous because my dog hasn’t been around other dogs but she got on well with Calvin. Judy sent pics to assure me that Makai was doing well. When my son went to pick Makai up, she was reluctant to leave! I’ll definitely use a Judy again.”
About: I provide loving, attentive pet care, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while maintaining routines, exercise, feeding schedules, individualized attention, and clear owner communication. (Bilingual) Habló español Pet care fits into my routine part-time and per diem, allowing me to dedicate quality time, flexibility, and focused attention to each pet without feeling rushed. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I keep environments clean, safe, calm, and provide regular updates to owners for peace of mind.
“Jennifer was an excellent dog sitter and incredibly communicative throughout Chewie’s stay. She sent us plenty of pictures and even a video, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away on our three-day trip. It was clear that Chewie was in excellent hands and genuinely loved spending time with Jennifer and her family. By the end of his stay, we were fairly certain he wasn’t going to want to come home with us! 😊 We would absolutely trust Jennifer with Chewie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter.”
“Stephanie and her husband were absolutely wonderful with Kiara! They were available last minute and were very flexible about when we could drop her off and pick her off. Thank you both so much for your help :) will definitely be booking again!”
About: Even though I don't have a lot of certified training, I know how to show my love and affection to each and everyone pets just like I have in the past for my own. I am currently working part-time and also going to school. I can take care of your fur baby after 3p.m. in the weekday and before 4 p.m. on Saturday and free on Sunday. I will treat every one's pet with love, care, respect and patience that they need and treat them as one of my own family members.

Faith was an excellent dog sitter! She is friendly, sweet, and clearly loves dogs. She lives in a great Johnson City neighborhood and has a nice fenced-in yard that gave me peace of mind while my dog was in her care. You can immediately tell she is experienced with dogs by how well-behaved and disciplined her own dog, Moxie, is. Faith made the entire experience easy and stress-free, and I felt confident that my dog was getting great care and attention. I would definitely book with Faith again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in South Windsor can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their South Windsor home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your South Windsor.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in South Windsor. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
You and your South Windsor sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
