About: I have over 12 years of experience caring for dogs and truly love spending time with them. I am responsible, patient, and attentive, and I always make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I work from home, which allows me to provide constant supervision and companionship throughout the day. I provide walks, playtime, feeding, supervision, and plenty of affection. I can also follow special care instructions for puppies, senior dogs, medications, feeding schedules, and exercise routines. I treat every dog like family and keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and regular attention throughout the day. I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I always make pet safety and comfort my top priority. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medications, routines, and special needs. I pay close attention to pets at all times and make sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, and attention. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat them like family and make sure they feel secure and happy.
“Diana was amazing. She sent us pictures of our dog throughout the stay, and it was clear that our dog was cared for with so much love. I never felt worried or wondered how our dog was doing because I knew he was in great hands.”
“I highly recommend Skarlett for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. She took care of my dog Kingston for the third time and did a fantastic job. Skarlett was attentive, responsible, and made sure Kingston was happy and comfortable while I was away. I received daily pictures and videos. I'm grateful for her services and will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Hailey did a wonderful job caring for Yuki. I got timely responses and pictures when I asked. She was also available last minute, which we really appreciated! I recommend Hailey for your dog sitting needs.”
“Catarina was awesome! One minute after meeting her, we fully trusted her to care for our puppy. When we returned, our pup was super happy and tired… the perfect combo. We will definitely have Cat dogsit again!”
About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is the personalized care and attention I give to every dog. I treat each pet like a member of my own family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I provide plenty of playtime, exercise, updates, and affection, while also following each dog’s unique routine and needs. With my experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, pet owners can feel confident knowing their furry friend is in a caring and reliable environment. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule. As a teacher, I have a structured routine and plenty of experience providing care, supervision, and attention throughout the day. During the summer, I am home full-time, which allows me to dedicate even more time to the pets in my care. This means frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of companionship throughout the day. Because I am home, pets are rarely left alone and can enjoy a safe, comfortable, and attentive environment while their owners are away. I have a fenced yard with a nice size backyard where the dogs can run around and enjoy the weather. And they will be supervised
“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!”
“Destiny was communicative leading up to and throughout our stay. She sent pictures, let me know how both my pups were doing, how they adjusted to the other friends they were making in the home, etc. They came home happy and tired! We’ve already rebooked multiple stays with Destiny for trips we have planned throughout the coming months. She is transparent - sharing on IG stories throughout the day, you can tell she really loves animals and is a sweet soul. Can’t recommend her enough!”
About: Hello thank you for visiting my profile. I've cared for pets for as long as I can remember. As a kid I used to take in strays, give them water, feed them, and try to find their owner. My mom used to say I don't find dogs, dogs find me! This was the case when I was 15 living in Stamford. It was a cold snowy Christmas eve and I happened to look out my back window and noticed a shivering all bones scared Sheppard in the backyard. I immediately ran outside with a treat and gained her trust. It took weeks but with the help of a vet she was nursed back to health. I convinced my parents to take her in and I named her Founder (found her). Best dog ever! Today I continue to work with stray animals as the producer of “Perros de Colombia” (search IMDB) and was fortunate to care for my beloved Miniature Schnauzer Myles for 17 years so I do understand the time and energy to not only raise a dog, but to care for another person's pet as if they were my own. I'm an entrepreneur who works from home. My kids are now college graduates and my situation is ideal to dedicate my time and energy to care for your pet morning, day, nights, and weekends. I have a nice yard and my house is near Wooster Park with a large field. While inside your pet can roam about freely or hangout in the home office.
“Jodie was great! She has a lot of experience taking care of animals. Her place is lovely, lots of space for the dogs to run around. I appreciated getting some updates about our dog while we were away.”
“Seriously the nicest family you can leave your pup with! This was my first time using Rover and once I met Nadine and her family I had no worries or hesitations! She accommodated my schedule and sent me tons of updates about my pup! I know he had a great stay and got tons of attention and exercise! Thank you guys! :)”
“Lexi was amazing. She took great care of acorn and was very communicative while we were away. We received lots of pics and videos and Acorn always looked like she was in great hands.”
“Claire was wonderful hosting my little Yorkie for two full days while I was away. He was in great hands!! She was caring, loving and super patient with him. I received very detailed updates about his stay and he was super relaxed when getting back home. Thank you so much Claire! 🐾”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience! Ariel and her lovely family welcomed my dog Manolo as one of their own. For the first time ever, I could actually tell Manolo was sad the next day—it was like he missed Ariel and her family. They even gave him a teddy bear, and he hasn’t stopped cuddling with it since! They are truly heaven-sent. I received daily updates and adorable pictures that gave me peace of mind and made me feel confident that Manolo was safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m so grateful we found them—we will definitely be back!”
“Julie was a fantastic sitter for our cat for an extended vacation. She sent pics and kept our cat happy and healthy during the stay. Professional, responsive, and recommended!”
“Jayme is amazing! I appreciated her attentiveness to Jazzy’s idiosyncrasies . She texted whenever she had questions in a way that I knew she really cared about him. Thank you for taking such good care of my little boy!”
“My dog seemed to have a great time during his stay. Siqing had a couple other dogs that day which was exactly what I was looking for, and she sent plenty of pictures if them playing. When coordinating drop off and pickup, communication was easy and prompt.”

Thank you so much for taking such great care of our furry family member! We really appreciated the daily photo updates—they gave us peace of mind and made us smile while we were away. I’m sorry the nights weren’t perfect, but we truly appreciate all of your patience and care. We will definitely be reaching out to you again for our future pet care needs. Thank you again for everything!
Gaileen took wonderful care of our dog while we were out of the country for two weeks. When you're that far away, it's hard not to be a little nervous about your pup. But Gaileen sent daily updates and pictures and took Indiana on lots of adventures. We could see that she was having a fun time and felt very comfortable in Gaileen's home. I've already requested another booking. Don't hesitate - book with Gaileen before her calendar fills up! :)
Iam very happy with the care my dog received. Anhelia is a great dog caretaker . Communication with her was easy and pleasant — she kept me informed and responded quickly to messages. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. My dog enjoyed time with Anhelia.
Connor did an AMAZING job with my pup, Harley. He was very professional, showed me around his place during the meet-n-greet, and then was attentive and kind during the stay, ensuring I got regular updates and pictures. Harley (my pup) enjoyed herself too! I absolutely will rebook with him in the future.
Katherine was so helpful taking our dog Ellie last minute on Thanksgiving. She was even kind enough to have her for one more day last minute, while we had guests in town! She sent pictures and was very responsive! Would absolutely use Katherine again in the future!
Veronica is an awesome dog sitter—truly unlike anyone I’ve ever met. She loves dogs so much and takes such amazing care of them. I honestly feel meeting her was a blessing from above. I’m always grateful, and I’ll definitely reach out again in the future. Thank you so, so much!👍
Maria and her family were amazing with Latte! She sent me pictures and updates often and kept me in the loop the whole time, which gave me so much peace of mind. Latte was clearly happy, loved, and so well cared for. I’m so grateful for her and would 100% book with Maria again!

There are 1,504 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Stratford. About 91% of Stratford sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
