About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all my life. I am very sure in my experience to handle others beloved pets! I am hands on, energetic and reliable. I’ll make sure to respect, love and to take care of any and all animals that come into my care! I am flexible. I do need at least a day in advance to be asked to dog sit but that does not mean I am able to accept all requests. I am only comfortable with pets who are well trained and comfortable with others. I have a small fenced yard and an orange cat that loves dogs! Your pet won’t be left alone and will always have company and friends!
“Elizabeth took amazing care of our dog Mylo. She is very friendly and loves animals. She kept us posted during his stay with videos, pictures, and updates on how he was doing. She also has a huge yard for our dog to enjoy. The report card at the end of his stay was super cute! Absolutely would recommend and we will definitely be booking with Elizabeth in the future!”
“Itbwas wonderful to find Tatyana... thanks, Rover! She has fantastic communication and took great care of our oulder pup, plus was very flexible with meet & greet, plus pick up / drop off times. There was no problem ensuring he got his meds after eating and he absolutely loved her fenced in yard. Terrific experience! Yes, I would recommend Tatyana as a sitter.”
“Rusudan provided excellent care for my boy Stax. Stax is a senior dog who requires medication and also has some mobility issues, due to his arthritis. Rusudan cared for him, as if he were her own. Tending to all of his needs. Rusudan provided me updates throughout the day helping to reassure me that he was well taken care of. Stax had an amazing time and we will be sure to rebook with them.”
“My two little Morkies had a great time with Liza. They played with other dogs there and were pampered with lots of TLC. I think they wanted to stay and play when I came to pick them up. I got some cute photos from Liza, and I really appreciated that she enjoyed having them stay with her! I'm sure they will visit her again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 13 years old and I’ve had family pets all of my life. I am interested in getting a pet myself and want to build a great routine for taking care of other furry friends in the meantime! I currently work full-time, but I have plenty of accessibility to go home for lunch and take the pet that I am caring for on a walk and feed them if needed. On the weekends, I am always free to care for any pets that I am sitting. I can easily crate your pet, if needed or requested. If your pet prefers to roam, I can accommodate that too. I have plenty of space around my home to walk your pet as much as needed.
“Emily was amazing! Our last minute savior when our baby needed more attention and another sitter didn’t have the time. Emily was attentive and catered to our baby’s needs. Would love to have Emily as a repeat sitter!”
“I had my dog, Dodger stay at Lynn's house for one night recently, and I couldn't have been happier. I recently adopted a very friendly and sweet, but very nervous, scared mutt and was worried about leaving him with someone he didn't know. I had a meet and greet with Lynn prior to my night away, and her sweet dog, Doris, and immediately I knew Dodger would be fine. Doris is a great doggie host and Dodger immediately started playing with her. The night of his stay, I got a text from Lynn updating me that Dodger ate dinner and relieved himself - neither of which he does if he's even slightly nervous so I knew he was doing just fine. It was so nice not to worry about him. When I picked him up after his overnight, he was frolicking with Doris in Lynn's fenced in backyard and having a great time. I highly recommend Lynn. She's super friendly, flexible and laid back. Her pup, Doris is full of energy and nothing but fun for doggie guests. Lynn's son lives with her and is excellent with dogs as well. I will definitely book again!”
“Saori was great. Our one year old lab was in heaven at their place. We received a puppy that was well cared for and had gotten a lot of socialization and exercise is a safe environment.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. I take the time to learn their individual personality, routines, and needs rather than treating every pet the same. I’m patient, attentive, comfortable with both cats and dogs, and experienced with keeping pets on their usual feeding, play, and potty schedules. My goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I work part-time, typically between 10 AM and 6 PM, which gives me flexibility before and after work for pet care. I’m able to plan visits around my work schedule and provide consistency. In my home I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel at home. For dogs, I have a fenced in backyard where they can safely play, run around, and get some fresh air. For cats, I have a cat tree, cat beds, and plenty of toys for enrichment and stimulation. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual routine and care instructions as closely as possible, making sure they feel comfortable and secure in their own space.

I don’t struggle with dogs at all and take them to walk or out to play as much as they need I have a very flexible schedule, I do work parttime but only for few hours and short shifts so I have time to pay attention to your pet! I have a big fenced backyard and also a space to crate if needed. I can take care of it at your home of my home , however its more comfortable

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and grew up in a family that always had dogs. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. We currently have Bailey, our sweet and gentle Bernese Mountain Dog, as well as a Ragdoll cat, Jades who is also very much part of our family. I love spending time with animals, whether it’s going for walks, visiting the dog park, playing outside, or simply giving them plenty of attention and affection at home. I’m comfortable around dogs of different sizes and personalities and generally connect with them very easily. Our pets are treated like family, and I would care for your pet with the same patience, attention, and kindness I give my own. I work from home most days, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pet throughout the day. I’m available for walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention and companionship. I’m also available on weekends and can be flexible based on your pet’s normal routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. We have a gentle and friendly Bernese Mountain Dog named Bailey and a Ragdoll cat at home, and our pets are truly part of our family.

Yajaira is an absolutely amazing dog sitter! ❤️ She was so accommodating and made time for a meet-and-greet, which was extremely important to me because I am very particular about who I trust with my dog after she experienced an injury while at a previous boarding facility. From the moment I met Yajaira, I felt comfortable with her. She has such a warm, kind, and beautiful personality, and I immediately knew she would be a great fit. My dog felt comfortable around her from the very beginning, which gave me even more reassurance. On the very first day, Yajaira sent me pictures and videos of my dog eating, playing, and going on walks. Those updates meant so much to me and truly put my heart at ease knowing she was happy, safe, and being well taken care of. She paid close attention to my dog's feeding schedule, routine, and individual needs. You can genuinely tell that Yajaira has a true passion for caring for animals. She is warm, attentive, responsible, and incredibly caring. If you're looking for someone you can trust with your fur baby, I highly recommend Yajaira! You can book with her knowing that both your mind and heart will be at peace. 🐾❤️
Goose had such a fantastic weekend with Lacy!! It was his first time spending more than one night away from home, and she made him feel so welcome and comfortable. We were blown away by her attention to detail and all of the fun activities she planned for him & included him in. We were 100% confident that Goose was safe and happy the entire time we were away, and we would book another stay with Lacy in a heartbeat!
This was my first time booking with Valeria and it was a good experience. I gave her and her husband 5 outta 5 stars. They kept me updated with Blu every step of the way. They sent pictures and gave me updates. I recommend anyone who’s looking for a dog sitter to book with them.
We were looking for a new pet sitter after our previous one moved out of town. Gaileen’s calm and friendly personality and her excellent care for our dog during a recent trial stay has put my worries to rest. She sent regular updates, followed my dog’s routine, and was super easy to communicate with. We will definitely be boarding with her again in the future.
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!
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.

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. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. 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.
