Michael was so good with my dogs, who don't always listen. He went above and beyond in his care for them.

Brynn was a great help and was very understanding in my joining on the app and using the service(s) for the first time. She was very considerate in providing with the dogs with a bit of playtime, and provided regular updates/pictures to my personal phone. I would certainly recommend her service(s) to anyone needing a sitter in the area. Thank you, again, Brynn!

My quiet skittish kitty Mia loved Lauren. Went right up to her during our meet and greet. Lauren was very nice, understood our circumstances and was flexible with scheduling change. She took great pics of our Mia playing. Our Bella on the other hand didn’t show her face at all. Normal for her. Thank you Lauren!!! We hope you will be available for any future needs.

This is our second time with Julie caring for our cat Pixie and will not be our last. She is prompt about getting to our house to feed Pixie and does not simply feed her and rush out the door when she is done. Pixie is an extreme affection sponge and we love that Julie sticks around and cuddles with our little one while we are away. I always feel so guilty when we are gone for more than a day, but knowing Julie is going to be sitting with Pixie and giving her the attention she craves really helps me relax. Julie is also so sweet with Pixie. Pix has a habit of getting under foot and can be very chatty. Julie has the patience of a saint navigating the one cat obstacle course to get through our kitchen while prepping her meals. We are thrilled to have come across Julie on Rover and already have discussed with her our next booking, which will be sudden and unpredictable as we go into the hospital to have our first child. She is so open to when we said "yeah, it will be sometime between this date and this date and could be 2-5 days long and will be a very last second booking". Not only did she respond immediately, but she told us no problem, she will be around and to let her know. Shes the best and we so highly recommend her to take care of the fur babies!

I had just moved to Cheshire, CT and needed to find a cat babysitter quickly. I am so lucky to have found Christine online. From the moment I met her, I knew I did not have to worry about my 2 cats. She is the sweetest and most caring person you could ask for and her love for pets comes through. I have found a car sitter for whenever I travel in the future.

About: I've had pets since I was a kid including dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish etc. My neighbors have relied on me to take care of their animals as well as family members. Patience and attentive care for all pets. I'm available weeknights after 5:30PM and most weekends. I don't have any pets at home so I'm looking forward to taking care of other pets and helping others. Some of my pets have been crate trained so I'm familiar with having to put dogs in crates. I am open to taking dogs on walks or just letting them out in a fenced in yard.

Jade is so amazing, I cannot reccomend her more highly. I book her every time I go out of town. She takes the time to get to know each cat's quirks and loves them on their terms. The peace of mind she gives is priceless.

About: I’ve spent decades caring for dogs — my own as well as pets belonging to family and friends. I currently walk and hike my dog, Copper, multiple times a day, so exercise, leash safety, and paying attention to a dog’s comfort and energy level are part of my everyday routine. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, from calm neighborhood walkers to more energetic dogs who need longer outings. My goal is always to make sure your dog feels safe, cared for, and happy on every walk. I’m a portrait artist working from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule throughout the day. I walk my dog, Copper, multiple times daily, so pet care and outdoor time are already part of my routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins during the day and early evening most days of the week. I prioritize calm, attentive care and clear communication with pet owners. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely and make sure food, water, walks, and litter boxes are handled exactly as instructed. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and personalities and always use secure leashing and safe handling practices. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed and cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and have been dog sitting since high school, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’m patient, reliable, and take time to understand each pet’s personality and routine so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m comfortable caring for puppies and senior dogs, and I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to pet care throughout the week. My classes are only on Tuesdays and I have one night class on Thursdays, so I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. I also work part-time every other Saturday, but I still plan my schedule carefully to make sure pets receive consistent care, attention, and exercise. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I enjoy making it part of my day. 🐾 I focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention, and that litter boxes or outdoor bathroom needs are taken care of. My goal is to make sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away.

About: I have 3 dogs myself and have had pets ever since I was born. I have pet-sat for neighbors, family, friends, and strangers who have pets that ranged from being very young and very old and have had no problems so far! I am very good at caring for animals with all types of personalities and love to do it :) I am a student who is about to be home for winter break and will have plenty of time to take care of and play with your pets! My schedule is pretty open so anytime your pet might need me I’ll be there for them I have a big backyard and three of my own very friendly dogs who love to make new friends. I take them for walks 3 times a day (morning afternoon and night) and hang out with them constantly. They are very well taken care of and your pet will be too

Susan was great with my 2 cats. She sent pictures of them every day and spent time visiting and playing with them. She also let me know when there were a couple of other issues at my house and she handled them for me. I would highly recommend her as she is really good with pets. I would definitely book with her again.
