About: You can count on me for: 🐾 Consistent communication and photo updates 🐾 Feeding, walks, playtime, and medications (if needed) 🐾 Respectful care of your home while you’re away 🐾 A calm, positive environment for pets of all ages and temperaments Hi there! I’m Alexis, a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver offering in-home pet sitting for dogs and cats. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family while you’re away. understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions to keep their routine as normal as possible. Let’s set up a meet & greet so your pets can get to know me — I can’t wait to meet them!
“The best with my girl Persephone. She was able to take her in very last minute and was very very flexible. I really appreciate all of her help and the way she was with Persephone during this tough transitional period. Loved all the pictures and videos she sent and I noticed that Persephone became less stressed overtime which I love. Highly recommend Madalys to everyone!”
“Diana and her family were great. They took great care of our baby and took her on lots of walks. Cali was a very happy girl. Highly recommend these people for taking care of your beloved pet.”
“Ivon was the most perfect peace of mind. We’re new to the area and she helped us in a pinch. She communicated often — and with lots of photos! We never had to wonder what our pup was up to, the updates were so frequent and thorough. And filled his day with so many fun activities. We’re so grateful!”
“Valeria was an incredible host for Ziggy! She was super communicative and took great care of him - I’ve already got my next booking scheduled. The ONLY downside is I think he likes her more than me now.”
“Bosco came home happy & tired !!i knew Claudia took good care of him. She was telling me things about him that only a Mom would know .. I now consider Claudia a trusted guardian :) Thank you !!!”
“Arly was a wonderful sitter for our anxious small dog. She kept us posted throughout her stay which really eased our minds while we were away. It was clear our dog was having a great time with lots of toys. She even clipped our dog’s nails for us. Would definitely recommend Arly as a sitter for your pet!”
“This was my first time meeting Elaine and I couldn’t be more impressed. She is truly a five-star sitter. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages showing how well our dog Max was doing—playing with the other dogs and clearly enjoying himself. I felt completely confident in her ability to take great care of him. When I picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
“Katie had the best, most nurturing and relaxing experience! When I picked Katie up I could tell she felt secure. Katie can have separation anxiety but she was handled perfectly (walks, pets, a nap). I received lots of pictures and texts so I was comfortable too.”
“John was great with our puppy Logan! He sent photos and updates each day and even offered some training tips. Logan seemed happy and exhausted after spending the weekend at John’s. Will definitely book John again!”
“Sheila was an excellent sitter for our dog! She sent us great updates and we could tell Angus got lots of attention and activity. Would happily use her again!”
“Miki and her mom Miyako are great! My 16 months old black lab had a wonderful 5 night stay in their house. I received videos and pictures daily. It’s obvious that Miyako and Miki are comfortable with dogs and seem genuinely enjoying their company! I will return for sure!”
“Dajah and family took good care of Mythri and kept me updated constantly, and also took care of giving her her medication, all during a rainy and stormy weekend. Thanks to them!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs in many ways, including: dog walking, play dates with other dogs, overnight dog sitting when the family is traveling and need help to stay with the dog those days they are away from home, or sometimes I have the authorization to bring them to my house, and daytime care. Through those years taking care of dogs I had a privilege to take care of 3/4 dogs at the same time, providing individualized attention and care to each furry companion. Dedicated to providing love and affection, I ensure that every dog in my care receives utmost comfort and attention. Prioritizing your dog's happiness and safety, our time together includes enjoyable walks in the park, fun playdates with other pups, and plenty of cuddles. Rest assured, your furry friend will always be in capable and caring hands with me. I'm currently working part-time, having time to dedicate to the dogs under my care. I prioritize their well-being by scheduling regular walks, play sessions, and ensuring they receive the attention they need throughout the day. I adjust my schedule to fit their needs, whether it's taking them for walks in the morning before I start work, checking in on them during the day, or spending quality time cuddling with them in the evening. Taking care of these furry friends isn't just a duty for me, it's a source of joy and fulfillment that enriches my daily life. In my house, I provide secure, worry-free environment for your beloved pets. I have a medium fenced backyard where I can take the dog to go potty and a great and friendly dog neighbor. My priority is to give the pet attention and make sure they will have love, and protection the whole stay!
“Cat responded to the request very quickly and was very accessible and responsive during the stay. She took great care of Nash and went above and beyond what was asked of her. She is trustworthy, receptive, and kind.”

Great overall experience! Thank you Jack for taking such wonderful care of our energetic baby Rex. Thank you also for the daily updates and videos, it was most comforting being so far away and being away from him for the first time. I would reach out again to Jack/Rover immediately if we are ever in need again.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. 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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
