“I had Maliyah and Gabriel take care of my dog for four days (three walks a day), and honestly, they were just really solid people. They were always on time, kept everything consistent, and you could tell they weren’t just rushing through it. My dog can be a little particular with new people, but she clicked with them right away, which says a lot. Every time they came by, she seemed genuinely excited to see them. They made sure she was fed on time, took her on actual walks (not just quick bathroom breaks), and even stuck around a little longer to spend time with her. That part meant a lot to me, it didn’t feel like they were just checking a box. Overall, it just felt easy and stress-free knowing she was in good hands. I’d 100% reach out to Maliyah and Gabriel again.”
About: Hi! I'm Daryana, an experienced pet sitter specializing in dogs and exotic pets. I have hands-on experience with everything from energetic pups to reptiles, so I'm comfortable with all types of animals. I know every pet has their own personality and needs, and I make sure they get the care, attention, and routine they're used to while you're away. super flexible with last-minute bookings and schedule changes—I'm here to make pet care as stress-free as possible for you. Your pets will be safe, happy, and loved like they're my own! I balance school with my love for pets, making sure they get plenty of attention, walks, and care each day. On school days, I plan around classes to give pets feeding, playtime, and companionship, and on days off I have extra time for longer walks, training, or overnight care. Pets are always a part of my daily routine, and I make their happiness and comfort a priority. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at theirs. I follow each pet’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, and give extra attention to anxious or special-needs pets. I make sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and secure at all times, and I communicate with owners to keep them updated on their furry family members.
About: I know how to adapt to each animal’s unique personality and routine. What sets me apart is the trust I build not only with pets but with their people. I provide daily updates, adorable photos, and peace of mind while you're away. Whether it's administering medication, going for long walks, or simply offering some extra love and belly rubs, I treat every pet like my own. This isn’t just a job, it's a loving passion! Pet care fits into my week really naturally. I'm in school with an easy schedule, so I’ve got the time that makes it easy to fit in morning walks, afternoon visits, or whatever your pet needs. Whether it’s dropping in to feed and play, going for a walk, or just keeping them company, I plan my day around making sure they’re happy and well cared for. Honestly, spending time with animals is the best part of my day—it never feels like a chore!! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at the client’s, I always try to make them feel as comfortable and safe as possible. In my home, I keep things calm, clean, and pet-friendly, with plenty of space to play and relax. I stick to their normal routines as much as I can—meals, walks, and bedtime, so it feels familiar to them. When I’m at a client’s home, I treat it with the same care and respect I would my own, making sure their pet gets lots of attention, exercise, and love. I follow any instructions closely and always leave the place just as I found it, if not better!
“Sunny is absolutely wonderful with Bella! She’s reliable, caring, and always takes the time to send me updates and photos from their visits. It’s clear that Bella adores spending time with her, and I feel so comfortable knowing she’s in such good hands.”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs, cats, turtles, snakes, hedgehogs, and fish! I love taking care of, and spending time with animals whenever I can. I am currently a sophomore at ECU, balancing classes and school work, but I can always find a way to make time for a furry friend in need. I have a smaller apartment with other roommates so I can’t have animals, but pet sitting at a clients home is no problem to me!
About: I have two fur babies who are my whole world. I’ve dealt with extensive health issues with my girls that have equipped me to handle any range of crisis with care and compassion.

I’m currently a student so I have a lot of time to spend with your furry friends! My animals are my world and I know that if you’re reaching out to me, yours are your world also!

About: I have had a dog since I was 13, and more recently a cat. I raised my dog from the age she was a puppy until now. She is fully potty trained along with being well trained in many commands. My cat was a stray rescue, and is well behaved and is fully trained to use her litter box. I have never had an issue with either of my animals! I am currently a photographer, leaving plenty of time for me to care for your sweet baby! I am hoping to lean on Rover as my full summer time job, but if this is not possible, I will be getting a part time job that will still leave me with plenty of time! I am willing to make an effort to crate train your pup, or teach them any commands! I also love to go for walks and I would be more than happy to walk your dog once or twice a day depending on their energy needs!
“She’s great!! She came and met my dog before the walk date for free and was so sweet. My very nervous/ skittish dog loved her immediately. She sent lots of pictures and did a great job. 10/10 recommend”
About: I have had have cats ever since I was a little girl and I have had dogs up until I was 14. My schedule is very flexible. I really enjoy playing with animals and spending time with them and making sure they get enough execise, fresh air and playful stimulation. I am flexible since I am a student at ECU. Outside of my classes and a couple student activities, I am free most afternoons and evenings along with the weekends. Since I am a college student, I live in an apartment so I would have to utilize the dog parks in the area and I have two roommates who are also animal lovers that would show your pet even more love and attention.
About: I have been bringing home and taking in animals ever since 2010 when I was in 5th grade. I have always put a lot of time, patience, love, sweat and money into my own animals. I try to give my babies the best quality of life that I can provide and I intend to do the same while yours are in my care! I have a tremendous amount of love & respect for all animals. I also have a lot of experience with multiple different breeds because I've had numerous dogs, a cat & a leopard gecko. Some duties I can help assist with include potty training, walking, teaching training commands & any senior/special needs care. If needed I can administer oral liquid medications, as well as pills and I can change diapers too. I am a stay at home dog mommy and I run a small business as well. So I generally have a lot of time, love & space to offer at my house throughout the week for guests.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stratford
Sunny took good care of my older dog and endured that she took her pills with treats, even when it took several tries. I had a specific concern involving my dog and she kept me updated with detailed Rover cards. I was able to relax on my vacation without any worries.
Maddie was great in being responsive on short-notice and taking my dog for walks in hours when it was still dark outside. She followed the feeding directions and medicine administration that I had set out. Reasonably flexible and made changes due to weather without a problem.
Caitlin did an amazing job with our golden retriever. She was prompt, communicated in a timely manner, and our dog had a great time. It definitely gave us peace of mind, knowing someone who actually cared for animals was caring for hours. We highly recommend her to others.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Stratford. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Stratford.

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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
