“Jennifer and her family took exceptional care of our dog, Matilda. They took their time to allow Matilda to acclimate to their home, while sending updates and pictures throughout the day. This was our first time leaving Matilda with a non family member and I couldn’t be more pleased. It took a lot of stress away knowing she was in such good hands. I would highly recommend Jennifer to watch your furry member of the family.”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life - my dog, Yogi, was truly my heart. He was handicapped and became very sick starting at the young age of 4. At that time, I was told he would not live long and was advised to consider euthanasia. Instead, I chose to care for him and support him through his illness, and he went on to live a full and happy life until age 12.5. Caring for a dog with special needs taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to recognize even subtle changes in behavior, comfort, or health. Because of that experience, I am especially comfortable caring for senior dogs, dogs with medical needs, or dogs who may require extra patience and compassion. I have two sons (ages 5 and 10) who are gentle, respectful, and have grown up around animals. We also have three cats, ages 4, 1.5 and a kitten, who are very accustomed to a calm home environment. I love dogs deeply, but after losing Yogi, I haven’t been ready to get another of my own - so I figured Rover would be the next best thing until that time comes, because caring for others’ dogs is incredibly meaningful to me. I work fully remote, so I’m home all day and able to give your dog plenty of attention, walks, and outdoor time whenever they need it. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I also work fully remote, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and frequent walks or outdoor breaks throughout the day. Your dog will not be left alone for long periods and will receive plenty of attention, care, and affection. My goal is always to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved - just like family! I work fully from home, so I’m here throughout the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to easily accommodate walks, feeding routines, and whatever each dog needs to feel comfortable and cared for! We live in a great, quiet neighborhood with a large front yard and a fully fenced-in backyard, which is perfect for safe outdoor time and play. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine, and I truly enjoy having dogs around and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I care for every pet as if they were my own and make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. In my home, pets have a safe, calm environment with plenty of supervision since I work fully remote. They’ll have access to a fully fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor time, along with regular walks, playtime, and lots of attention and affection. I’m also happy to accommodate any specific needs, including feeding schedules, medications, or crate routines. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible!

“Thank you Kevin for taking care of Rocco while my family and I were on vacation. Kevin has a warm and caring personality so we felt comfortable to leave our 10 month old husky under his care for 7 days after only 5 minutes of first meeting him. Kevin provided exceptional care to our Rocco and keep us updated by sending pictures and videos of the adventures Rocco experienced while we were away. We will definitely work with Kevin again, and of course recommend him to care for your dog. Thank you Kevin 😊”

About: I have experience with animals who have special needs. It can be stressful thinking about leaving your pet. Especially if they are on a special diet or in need of medication. I know how important this is to follow. I work full time with 2 days off a week. However, I live just 10 minutes away from work. I am able to check on your pet during my lunch break. I only take one animal in at a time, unless they are from the same household. I live in a condo. We have plenty of sidewalks and grass areas to walk your fur baby. I will make sure they have their feedings, and leave out water during the day. We will watch TV together in the evening. At bedtime I allow the animal to sleep in bed with me. I want your pet to feel like this is their second home.

About: Hi! I’m a huge dog lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I have dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or just a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with energetic dogs, strong breeds, and dogs with unique needs or routines. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and will always follow your care instructions carefully. I also believe communication is important, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is to make your pet feel happy, cared for, and stress-free while giving you peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I work Monday-Thursdays at my full time job but work around it to care for your pets! I’m off on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for more attentive care but also can do pop ins and walks during the week as well depending on distance. I have three dogs and a cat in my own home. They are all very friendly but can be separated from your pet if needed! I have a fenced in yard as well and extra crates. Whether your animals come to my house or I come to yours they will be cared for like they’re my own. I’m very picky with who I let take care of my own dogs and I understand that every dog has different needs that should be upheld.

About: I've been a chorkie mom for 15 years and I'm happy to say Pinky is still going strong! I have 6 years of experience taking care of 2-3 dogs at a time for family and friends, including senior dogs who require a little more care and affection. I love spending any free time I have playing with and caring for animals. I'm a part-time registered nurse. During my off days, I am available to play and care with your fur babies. I am also available for boarding during the week and on weekends but will have to be notified ahead of time. Safety is my priority for pinky which will be the same for your dog. Spacious backyard with cameras surrounding the property. Dogs will not be left unattended at any moment while outside. Out of an abundance of caution, dogs in my care will get an apple air tag attached to their collar. Kitchen counter tops and table will be cleared during their stay to avoid anything potentially harmful.

I had an amazing experience with this dog sitter. They were truly wonderful—reliable, caring, and incredibly attentive. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog Jacob was in such good hands. This was the first time Jacob actually wanted to go back and even seemed to miss his caregivers, which says everything about the love and attention he received. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!

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.

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 .

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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
