“As a new puppy parent Steve did a great job caring for our 8 week old pup and our three year old just like we would. Will definitely book again.”

“Kimberly was wonderful and was able to help us out last minute! She clearly cares for animals and was attentive to what my cat needed! She also cleaned up broken glass that the cat knocked off the counter and brought in a package for us. Thank you Kimberly!”

Alisha S.

“Madeleine has been caring for my dogs since high school. She is attentive, kind and wonderful with my dogs. It shows on how excited they are to see her when she drops in. She provides the best care and from the beginning asked for instruction to make sure she does exactly what is needed to be done each time she visits. I have cameras outside the house and she’ll often bring toys out to play with them during her drop ins. I can’t say enough good things about the care she provides for my dogs. They love her and we do too!”

About: Welcome, y'all! I love watching dogs. We watch kitty cats too 😁. Cheapest rates around! Let me make it easier for you to celebrate your vacation and holidays! Let me sit for your pup. I...love... dogs! My parents were dog breeders for years. As a youngster, I was responsible for many of the chores. As an adult, I have always had pets. I know how important your dog is to you. Your dog is your 'baby'. We are definitely dog lovers in this house! Big dog specialist. I love the little dogs too, though! ☺️💪🎄🎁❤️‍🩹 I will treat your pup like my own. I am a teacher during the day. I'm usually home by 3. I'm home every afternoon and every night and every weekend. I do have flexibility in my work schedule should they need arise. I have a dog lead hooked up to the house and it goes all the way back to the maple tree on the back of the property. 20 ft in either direction gives Fido plenty of room to go to the bathroom. Otherwise, your pup is in the house with me and my family. I am offering dog boarding services. This is a friendly Christian home. Lots of love to share.

“My seconding time booking Deborah and she’s great! Follows the routine. And plays and loves on your pet! The first thing she said to me once I rebooked with her was “I’m so excited to see her again.” which is something very heartwarming to see when you’re leaving your pet to be taken care of by someone.”

“Lauren did a wonderful job taking care of my furbaby .the regular updates were well detailed and I had a happy and healthy kitty that I came home too.”

About: I work from home full time for a tech company and have a flexible schedule but no longer a dog of my own, so I love to fill my time with other people's pets. Able to work from anywhere so that your pet isn't alone if needed. Have experience with large and small dogs, cats, birds, and horses. Experience with medicating, walking, sticking to training schedules, and I'm always up for a hike, play in the yard, or just a lazy cuddle on the couch. I bring treats and patience :) References available. Available for walks, play and overnight stays too. I work from home so as long as I've got Wi-Fi and my laptop I can come to you! Responsible, educated, and employed adult. Have experience house sitting, overnights, and administering medication. Whether walks, long term stays, or check ins, fur babies will be spoiled, training will be kept, and fun will be had! Very communicative.

About: As a loving cat owner and lifelong animal lover, I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for when you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and gentle with animals, and I want every pet to feel loved and secure. I understand that every animal has their own personality, preferences, and routine, and I will take the time to get to know your pet and follow your care instructions closely. Whether it’s providing companionship, making sure meals and fresh water are taken care of, or giving your pet extra affection, I will treat your furry family member with kindness and respect. Your pet’s comfort and well-being will always be a priority! I balance work and family life, so I value communication, planning, and reliability. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s routine and arrange visits that fit both your needs and my availability. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets, and I’ll communicate with you about scheduling, care instructions, and updates during each booking. Please reach out with your needs, and we can see if we’re a good fit! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priorities! As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family. I will take the time to understand your pet’s needs, follow your care instructions carefully, and respect your home and your pet’s routine. I believe in being patient, attentive, and gentle with every animal, while allowing them to feel comfortable at their own pace. I’ll keep you updated during visits with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for every step of the way!

About: When I was 10 I joined a dog training program through my school, that’s where my training experience began. I provide a premium, low-volume dog care experience for owners who want their dog to have more one-on-one attention in a calm home environment. Your dog won’t be just one of many in a crowded space. I keep my care more personal so each dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. I have a big yard for dogs to enjoy, but my indoor space is smaller, so I am very intentional about keeping the number of dogs low. That means I can focus on your dog’s comfort, safety, and overall experience much more closely. This is a great fit for dogs who do better with a quieter setting and for owners who value quality of care over high-volume boarding or daycare. I generally only take one to a few dogs at a time unless they are from the same household. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs. I took care of my childhood dog for 17 years of her long, beautiful life. I have experience working with small senior dogs specifically and I know all the little things that they appreciate. I also have experience with large dogs and can handle very big strong dogs. I also love hiking with dogs so if you have an energetic dog you need to burn off energy I am your guy. I have an acre yard with a fenced in front yard in a nice area. Any dog that boards with me would be treated like my own dog and let out very frequently to go to the bathroom and play outside. I would always remain home with your dog. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m currently a fully remote student so I am fully available. If I board a pet I will be with them full time to make sure they receive the care they deserve. I have a fenced in front yard, and a good amount of unfenced land in the back. My dog is very friendly and would keep your pet great company. He loves dogs and cats. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but would love to give your dog the pet experience and treat them like my own. I live in a nice are and have great access to the woods nearby as well.

“She did a wonderful job eith my cats. They did hide on her but if I had her a few more days I am sure they would have liked her. If there is ever a time when I need a cat sitter again, I will hire her again”

“Lynsey is the best! She took great care of my pups and I would definitely use her again in the future! Some nice pictures of them during the visit, a detailed report, and message. It's hard leaving your fur family at home but it was made easier knowing they were in great hands with Lynsey!”

Kristin P.

“Katie was amazing! She was communicative and very kind. It was our first time using a sitter through Rover and we were not disappointed. Katie was friendly and accommodated all our needs. For the first time, I could say that we vacationed stress and worry-free. Our babies were in great hands. We have a cat and dogs and she catered to their needs very well especially since my Lion (dog) needs extra love when we are away during 4th of July weekend! I highly recommend her and will be looking forward to having her back. 💗”

About: My name is Kristina Leigh. I recently turned 42 years old ( in human years) I have spent the majority of these years sharing my life with dogs. I have experience working as a groomer, working at a pet store, and I also have Emergency 24hr Veterinary Hospital Clinic experience. I took classes at Northwestern CT Community College in the Vet Tech program. I have loved 3 amazing senior sweet rescue pitbulls throughout my adult life, and countless four-pawed friends in between. I am not a stranger to exotic reptiles, amphibians, and small rodents of all varieties. This includes my lifetime passion for fresh and salt water fish care. I am very calm, gentle, and patient when it comes to caring for senior dogs and nervous pups. I have basic first aid pet knowledge, but most importantly I have common sense. The most important thing to me personally, is to completely put your mind at ease. Your pets are in great hands. I know and understand as a pet parent the worry that often comes with being away from your pet. That being said, I can guarentee that proper care, respect, and instructions will be shown and followed with your animal and within your home. But I am certain that you will feel at ease by how your pet behaves in my presence. I love animals, and they know it. Trust and respect are incredibly important for me when I am choosing who cares for my pet, my dog is my little chubby dumpling princess. The absolute best is what I ask and expect, and that is what I give to your own little buddies. I have my own transportation, and can accommodate new changes in schedule in a reasonable amount of time. My schedule is flexible, and so is my character. I am more than willing to help create a solution when one feels impossible. All you need do is ask. Things happen; life happens, and hopefully you will feel that choosing me as your pet's Auntie makes things much easier for you. I take the safety of your furry family member very seriously I have training experience walking bouncy puppies, "pully" pooches, and slow older doggos. I am patient, calm, and know my surroundings at all times during the walks. I can help teach your dog proper leash etiquette if it is wanted I absolutely love spending time around dogs and animals. This is my passion, and if I could do this for free everyday, I would. I have plenty of time to put towards the care of animals. I have a detailed schedule that I follow, and everything is organized and on track. I understand that while caring for animals, extreme care must be taken. I have been called over-protective when it comes to my own pets. But it is for their own protection. Unfortunately, they lack the legal rights that humans have. I am very careful when other animals are around (especially leash-less wildcards coming in hot towards myself and the dog I'm walking ) therefore, it is my choice to not allow strangers to pet any animal I am caring for. Similar to working dogs. There are too many negative examples of pets becoming unfairly removed from their homes because of some untrue accusation. An example is this: You've definitely seen dogs " smiling" to their owners. Some dogs just learn that behavior, and it is far from aggressive behaviour in their minds. Now say someone asks to pet your dog on a walk. The dog smiles, and it is misinterpreted as aggression, person is scared, maybe they act in a way that is embarrassing once they realize they aren't in danger. Maybe they create a scenario in their minds where they were bitten and then they want the " violent" dog put down. and then that is where the mess begins. Safety first!

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Kaylee for our dog Nikko while we were away for two weeks. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond to make sure he was not only cared for, but truly loved and engaged. Kaylee spent extra time with Nikko, took him on car rides (which he loves!), and made sure he had both fun and comfort while we were gone. It was clear from the photos and updates—and even more so when we returned—that he really enjoyed his time with her. She treated Nikko like her own, and that kind of care is priceless. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We highly recommend Kaylee and would absolutely book with her again!”

About: With two dogs of my own, I spend a good chunk of my time caring for and loving dogs. I have also had the pleasure of caring for a multitude of dog breed’s including, but not limited to, maltese, shitzu’s, pitbulls, german shepherd’s, and bull dogs. From puppies, to seniors, they all get my love! I am comfortable and confident in administering medications. I’m a full time college student and work part-time. Im available for walks/drop-in early mornings between 6a-7:30a m-f, after 3pm on Mon. & Weds. Im available for house sitting beginning Thursday nights-Sunday nights I am a careful pet-sitter, recognizing the importance of safety and comfort. I honor your decisions on what works/doesnt work for your pets. If liter boxes, pee pads, or yards need to be cleaned up after your pets I will do so no problem! I also love to give lots of love! expect your pets to be spoiled with attention 🥰.

“Kailah has been great with my dogs! I have 2 rescues who are super nervous around new people. This was our 3rd time booking with Kailah, she has been super patient and they are starting to warm up to her. I would recommend Kailah and will definitely be using her services again.”

About: I have been watching animals since I was 12 years old. Taking the neighbors pets for a walk, feeding them, or just checking in on them. I also have my Animal Control License and have been an ACO for 2 years now. I love it. I have a passion for animals and will do anything to make sure your fur babies are well kept and safe. I do work full time during the day M-F so midday check-ins are a little hard but morning and nighttime services are always easy for me to accomplish! I typically watch the animals in their own home just so they can stay within their routine. I never want to make the owner or animal feel uncomfortable ever.
