“Deborah regularly sits our sweet senior dog corn and recently stayed with him at our home for 7 days and 6 nights while we were on vacation. Her care was impeccable all around. She even stayed later the last day because of our late flight home to ensure corn was not left alone too long and was in good company. We can always rely on Deborah and highly recommend her to care for your furry family member.”


“Brit took care of Georgia three full days and two nights. We met beforehand to go over things. It's clear she gave Georgia all the care and loving I hoped for. It's the first time I've left Georgia with a sitter...so I was a little nervous, but already knowing how Brit is and then getting updates and pics helped immensely. I already booked her for another stay and am looking forward to others. Georgia is too@”


“Lori is awesome. She watched our senior dog and our 2-year-old dog in our home for a week-long trip. She communicated very well and sent tons of pictures. She gave medications to our senior dog (who requires a lot of patience) and kept our younger dog well exercised. When our flight home got delayed, Lori was super understanding and flexible during the uncertainty. Our house was spotless when we got home. Lori is a true professional and we'd recommend her without hesitation. Thank you, Lori, for giving us peace of mind while we were away.”


“Kailie is the absolute greatest. She is timely, communicative, and is wonderful to work with. It is so reassuring to travel knowing both my animals are in great hands. Thank you Kailie!”

“Court was fabulous caring for our three (spoiled) little doggies in our home for the weekend. She is super responsible and professional. Our dogs loved her, she is obviously a natural animal person. Her communication is wonderful and reassuring. Just perfect in every way. We would hire her again in a minute!”


“Liz met us at our campsite right on time and she immediately got along with our Catahoula, Annie. They were quick friends. Liz did a great job keeping her safe and entertained while me and my family attended a concert, and Annie was safe and relaxed when we got back to our site. Liz did great and I'll recommend her to anyone who needs help watching their fur baby for a few hours.”


“Kate was a wonderful dog and house sitter! Our two dogs were better off then when we left as Kate did some training with them. They took lots of walks and seemed very happy and healthy. The house was great as well.”



“Evelyn was fantastic with my senior dog, and pup that can be lazy and have spurts of energy. Additionally, she was great with our cats, giving very detailed updates throughout the trip. I really appreciated the level of care, the attention to details, and the extra mile she went to ensure a smooth trip for not only her but myself. Incredibly grateful to have found her!”


About: My husband and I have hosted a bunch of furry friends in our home over the years and we also have traveled all over New England and the West Coast pet sitting. I am currently working remotely and I'm available to keep your pet company. I will take care of your home and your pets the way you would. You can feel confident that I will give all the pets and snuggles in your absence. Some of our photos are furry friends that have come to play with us. I currently need to be online from 8:30 am to 5 pm, so wifi is required. I can do walks during the day with plenty of potty breaks. I care for your pet the way that you would. I respect your space and your rules about furniture, food, crating, and space. I'm totally flexible around your pets needs.

“Hayley is AMAZING!! One of my cats is very social and the other is shy. She got BOTH of them playing, brushed them, and made sure they knew they were loved on top of the bare minimum of feeding them and giving my old lady her meds. She even checked to make sure my hamster was still breathing while I was away since it was always during my hamster’s sleep time that she was there. Highly recommend. Will be using again if I ever am going away and she is available”


“Mady is terrific - she took excellent care of Zena. Her dog Sebastian was a great playmate for Zena and helped make the time we were away fun for her. Mady used good judgement and was responsible. She's also very pleasant and a pleasure to work with. I'd definitely recommend her and would be happy to use her again.”


“Bella was terrific! She stayed over in my home to care for my dog and cat. I appreciated her proactive communications including text with pictures of my dog out on walks with her. She was respectful of my home and I will definitely be in touch with her again to help in the future. I highly recommend her services.”


“Without a doubt, Kaila is the best in the business. Perfect care was given to our pets, and when our flight was delayed to double our sitting needs, Kaila stepped up for us then too. We will 100% be using her in the future, and will happily recommend her to anyone with animal care needs. 11/10 Dolittles, truly the best.”

About: For five years I have been pet sitting for coworkers, family, and friends. I have cared for small to large dogs, some lazy and many very high energy! I love being able to play with the pets to get their energy out and give them a good petting afterwards. Generally, I am available both ends of the day and most weekends. My full time job is flexible for the most part and can create my schedule to accommodate different gigs. I primarily have experience with overnight pet sitting at the client’s house. I am comfortable with both rural and more city environments. Privacy is important for me, so I will always respect the client’s privacy of their home. If uncomfortable with overnight stays, I will gladly travel to the client’s house in the morning and evenings to care for their pets.

About: I have always cared for, loved & owned dogs for as long as I can remember. I love to walk so why not combine two loves into one lovely hobby! I live close to the Ashuwillticook Trail and the Greylock Glen where we will have great fun. Can’t wait to meet your special pup & make him/her the happiest hound in town. Whatever it takes I aim to please & pamper your PAWSOME pet! ❤️ 🐶😺 ❤️ I've always cared for, loved & owned cats as well. I would love to meet your special friend & build the fondest feline memories. As for all those small critters, I have experience with many different kinds including fish, hamsters, gerbils, parakeets, ferrets, rabbits and more.

I love all animals. I believe they are vulnerable creatures and most rely on humans to care for & protect them. If you are without a vehicle or your work schedule is super rigid I can pick up or drop off your fur-ever-luv if needed. I would love to help out anyway that I can. I own two dog friendly cats & I will look after your pet as if she/he were my own. I will do everything I can to make it the safest, most comfortable and memorable experience for your special pet.

About: ive had a couple of dog growing up in my childhood a sweet old black lab and a super crazy dingo.. in my free time after school and during summer i used to walk them, no amount of walking could satisfy my dingo.. id have her pull my bike to get all her energy out since we didnt have any closed in areas she could run off in.. ( i dont do this anymore! i realize its not very safe! she absolutely loved it for sure though) i love pups big and small old and energetic theyre all very unique and id love some new friends to get me out of the house. id ask you beforehand of course if youd be okay with them swimming, theres a pond i can bring them to after walking to cool off at. our backyard is fenced! i have two cats, so id like to know how your dog reacts around small creatures, if they cant be in contact i can always but them into a room while the dog is over. most likely theyd be outside! lots of shade and id keep em well hydrated and happy :3 i currently have been on a job hunt since what feels like forever, my schedule is very. very open.. since i dont have a car, drop off would be ideal, if your close enough to walk to i can do that too! weekends are the only time id be able to pick up your pooch my cats get their waters filled and cleaned almost daily, lots of love of course and are very spoiled. i dont have any dogs at the moment, so of course id love to chat about what youd expect and need for your lovely pup! im good with communication and friendly, special needs id be extra attentive to. im very good at remembering small things, though id still write em down incase!

Molly & Lee G.

“We decided to take a short last minute trip this summer but couldn't find any dog friendly hotels so we decided to board our fur baby. In the past we've had family and friends watch but we never felt completely comfortable. We found Molly and Lee close by and after talking with her felt very comfortable with her watching him. She kept us updated on his condition daily, and even sent us a short video via the Marco Polo app. He had fun outdoor time and a family friendly atmosphere. We have no reservations about using Molly's services in the future for all our doggy daycare needs.”

Stamford pet parents share their Rover experiences
Colin has been a terrific dog and house sitter for the week we were away. Chuckle is a large dog who is very sweet but can be difficult to handle when he meets other dogs. Colin agreed to meet us prior to dog sitting so that he could familiarize himelf with Chuckle and the places where we take him for walks. He took notes about our instructions and wrote his own description of Chuckle's habits. Colin and Chuckle bonded immediately and kept good company with each other throughout their stay, and we received daily updates with pics. He also kept good care of our place, an old house that has a lot of idiosyncrasies. Besides being a pet lover, Colin is very detail-oriented, conscientious, and fully trustworthy. We felt that our Chuckle was in very good hands, and we have already asked him to dogsit for us again in the coming month.
