About: Been taking care of dogs for 6 years now. Have had experience training two of my own dogs and taking care of them/walking them on my own. I also work alongside with my father (also named Luis ) who has been doing dog boarding for about 2 years now. Me and my father are very used to the behavior of dogs and comfortable with dogs no matter the size or the breed of your dog. I have always had a strong love and a passion for animals, especially dogs I am currently a college student looking to make a little bit extra money by taking care of dogs. If I cannot look after the dog, my dad also takes care of dogs and is always available Me and my father don't live in a very busy neighborhood so you don't have to worry about your dog being unsafe. We have a relatively big house and also have a park very close to my house with a big open field and fence for the dogs to run around in were I can walk your dog and play with them to keep them busy without the risk of them getting hurt. I also have many toys for your dogs to play with if you would like for me to have them get a more fun experience instead of just walking them.

“Julia was wonderful with our pup Koda! She gave him lots of love and attention during her visit, and even managed to coax our cat out to say hello, which never happens with friends she is familiar with, let alone new ones! We felt very comfortable knowing she was taking care of our furry family members, and we couldn’t be happier with her visit. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi, I’m Alyssa – your dog’s next best friend! 🐾 Located in Tolland, CT | Flexible Availability | Trusted by Fellow Dog Parents As a lifelong animal lover and proud pup parent, I understand how important it is to find someone reliable, responsible, and caring to look after your furry family member. I was referred to Rover by friends who know how much I adore dogs—and I’ve quickly become the go-to sitter for neighbors and friends alike. I specialize in caring for dogs who may need a little extra love, patience, or consistency—especially rescues or more anxious pups. I recently cared for a young red heeler mix who was too nervous to board, and with time, treats, and a calm presence, we became fast friends. Whether your dog is high-energy or a couch cuddler, I tailor my care to their needs. What I offer: • In-home overnight stays (I’ll treat your pup like one of my own) • Daily walks and enrichment activities • Photo and text updates to keep you in the loop • Flexible scheduling and last-minute availability Let’s set up a meet and greet—I’d love to learn more about your pup and how I can help! I work from occasionally so I can be available for your dogs when boarding! I can take them out morning, noon, or night depending on need. If boarding, I have about 1.5 acres of land they can explore or a 30 foot fenced in area in the back. I have a friendly dog who’s about a year old, and a fenced in area. Were ready for whatever your dog may need and more!

About: Hello and welcome to our Rover page! My name is Katie, and my husband Matt and I are a pet-loving family with two daughters, Autumn (11) and Keiley (8), who absolutely adore animals and are gentle, respectful, and experienced around dogs. I grew up with dogs and cats my entire life, and over the past 13 years of marriage, Matt and I raised two amazing dogs, Bella and Jack. They were truly our first babies and meant the world to us. After losing them due to age and health, we realized we’re not quite ready to start over with a new dog of our own. Instead, we’ve found so much joy in opening our home to care for other families’ dogs while they travel. This journey began during a time of transition for our family, and while it has helped us financially, the truth is—we do this because we genuinely love dogs. Every pup that comes into our home is treated like a member of the family, with plenty of love, attention, belly rubs, and cuddles. We don’t offer anything less than that. We provide everything your dog may need during their stay, including crates, dog gates, beds, bowls, and treats. Dogs enjoy outdoor time on a leash or lead (we do not have a fenced yard), as well as regular walks and playtime. Three days a week, either Matt or I are home full-time, ensuring your pup has plenty of companionship and minimal alone time. We currently host a maximum of two dogs at a time to ensure each one receives the attention they deserve. In the rare case of a double booking, we always communicate with both families beforehand to make sure everyone is comfortable. We also offer doggy daycare on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. We’ve been lucky to meet so many wonderful families and pups, and we would love the opportunity to meet you and yours next. Please feel free to reach out—we can’t wait to welcome your dog into our home! I currently work part-time which allows me more time to be home to care for your pups. Our current schedule is Mondays and Fridays pups would be alone. Tuesdays and Thursdays Matt works from home. And Wednesday is my day off. Dogs will either be walked or can be on a lead for more area with someone outside with them. Dogs will receive a lot of attention from all of us.

“Was very punctual and communicative. Took multiple pictures and sent them to me when the drop in visit was over.y dogs loved him and took to him immediately.”

About: I’ve been around animals ever since I was born. I live on a farm and have been taking care of different animals as long as I can remember. I understand each pet has a different personality and I look forward to learning everything about them and accommodating in any way they may need. I work part time on the weekends but am free throughout the week to give your pet lots of love and the care they need. I have a fairly large yard and love going for walks. I also have a wonderful dog who is extremely friendly and slightly shy/awkward. Whatever enrichment your animal needs, I will do everything in my power to provide.

About: Hi! I've helped taken care of my family's dog since I was 12, and since then, I've gained experience in caring for multiple dogs and cats. I'm thrilled to help serve my local community. In addition, I've taken multiple animal science courses in my studies at UConn, and have a working knowledge of animal care. I'm a senior studying the life sciences at the University of Connecticut. As a full time student (with extracurriculars), I certainly have a busy schedule, however; that helps motivate me to manage my time and set aside certain days and nights for work! Also, I don't have any class on Fridays or Saturdays, which is perfect for weekend pet sitting needs! I can also overnight pet sit on most nights. Most of my pet sitting work will revolve around ensuring your pet is taken outside (or for a walk) when needed, fed on time (this includes ensuring fresh water is always accessible 24/7!), and given time for playtime (or even time for calm activities, especially if the pet is anxious). This is a fairly standard list of care—so if your pet has needs that differ, please let me know!

“Sammy was great showed up on time and played with My Boys when she was there she always sent me updates and pics and my boys were taken care of very well. I would highly recommend her.”

About: My name is Jen, I am an avid animal lover, dog mom, and part-time adventurer. I have my BA in psychology and have always been interested in animal behavior. I first started watching friends' dogs in 2001, then moved on to house-sitting cats and dogs. I have great experience taking care of pups and love taking them on long walks, trips to the park, the beach, and places alike. And there's always time for some positive reinforcement! I am always willing to work on some training with your pup if you request. I have a 6-year-old love bug Cavapoo named Beau who is the light of my life! Feel free to contact me and discuss your needs, desires, and any questions! Fun Awaits! As of June 14 I am free to book between 9a-5pm. I walk my dog on the trails every single day after work and we enjoy it! I will not be taking care of any dogs at my home at this time. If this changes I will update the profile as soon as possible. I do not stay over night but I will stay until bed time and return in the AM.

“Jaclyn is a professional who took excellent care of my nervous terrier. She was able to drop in last minute with no issues. I'll definitely book her again”

“Jo was terrific! Very communicative and responsible. She sent us photos every day of our cat Olivia who seem to have a terrific time visiting with her. I would highly recommend Jo to anyone looking for someone who wants to be sure that their pet will be well taken care of.”

During the summer I am home and available during the daytime as well. I am available for check-ins, walks, and stays. Your companion would be cared for by keeping to his/her routine/schedule, keeping them safe, following any additional instructions, and giving them lots of attention and playtime.

About: I have grown up with a family dog all my life and now have my own!

I have always enjoyed taking care of doggos for family and friends and am very excited to help take care of yours! I am very good with dogs of all ages including young puppies in their teething and potty training phase to senior dogs who want cuddles and sniffs. I am available for house sitting and will spoil your pet with attention, play time, and walks while you are off enjoying your vacation or trip. I am also available for drop-ins and walks! You can count on me to keep your pets safe and happy :-) I have a very flexible summer schedule and can keep your pets on the their typical routines! I am happy to follow any special instructions you have your doggo! Every pet is unique and my goal is to take care of your pet as you would so you can be care-free while you are away and sleep easy knowing your pet is in good hands. You can trust me to keep your pets safe and your home exactly as you left it. I will treat your home as if it was my own, just like your pet.

“Dana is totally wonderful and reliable. She has a very calm, gentle way with cats and people. She provides meticulous care in all ways - feeding, water and litter pan clean-up. Cats are so intuitive and mine instantly decided Dana was a friend and helper. Dana's reassuring photos and reports made it easy for me to travel and focus on what I needed to do, knowing my cat was getting excellent care.”
