About: I have experience caring for dogs through boarding, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I’ve looked after multiple dogs and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I truly love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. My goal is to make every dog feel happy and cared for like they’re part of the family. I am currently a full-time online college student so I am mostly always home and can guarantee exercise, playtime, and safety for your four-legged friend. I provide a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for every dog in my care. My home features a fully fenced backyard where dogs can run and play freely. The yard is equipped with puppy sun chairs, a puppy pool, and a variety of outdoor toys to keep them active, relaxed, and entertained. I also have a friendly puppy who enjoys playing and socializing, giving your dog the opportunity for companionship during their stay. My goal is to create a welcoming, home-like setting where every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Christina was a total cat whisperer for our two shy senior kitties. She put them at ease like a natural and was an expert with their oral meds. We felt so grateful knowing the kitties were in such skilled and caring hands. Thank you!!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 7 years of experience caring for and walking dogs of all sizes and personalities. I know every pup has their own routine, energy level, and needs, and I love creating fun, safe, and positive experiences for each dog I care for. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, some extra playtime, or a little companionship while you’re away, I’m here to provide dependable care and plenty of tail wags! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine! I have built-in breaks throughout my workday that allow me to provide walks, check-ins, and quality time with pets. I’m able to create a consistent schedule while giving each animal the attention, exercise, and care they need. I believe every pet feels most comfortable when their routine and environment are respected. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely, maintain their normal feeding, walking, and care schedules, and provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I treat every home with the same respect I would want for my own and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

“Josh was a fantastic sitter, and we had a great experience with him. He did drop-in visit and then house sat for us and took excellent care of our cat. What really stood out was how quickly he bonded with our cat who is shy and usually hides from people. Josh was reliable, communicative, and clearly very comfortable around animals. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and a house that was just as we left it. Overall, Josh did a wonderful job, and we would definitely hire him again in the future!”


About: Hello, I am an empty nester and mom of two independent children and have received immense enjoyment and fulfillment from petsitting. I received an associate veterinary degree earlier in life and have had a passion for animals all my life. I have always owned dogs until I had to put down my last dog- a Weimeraner. Since then- I have enjoyed getting close to my clients dogs. I do walks/feedings and also board clients dogs at my home when they are away. Physical fitness is important to me so I enjoy walking or hiking the dogs I care for ! I work a small amount of part time hours so am home a good deal. Your loved one will receive lots of attention ! Excellent references are available if you require. Thank you, Linda
About: I have grown up having pets, so I understand how they become part of the family and the importance of having someone trustworthy to take care of them. I have been pet sitting for families throughout Fairfield County and New Haven County over the last six years. Whether your dog is small or large, needs special food or medication, likes long walks or just playing in the backyard, I have experience with it all! During the summer, I will be available for all pet care needs! Let’s create a schedule that best aligns with my part time job and your pet’s routine. I make sure your pet is cared for in the same way I would look after my cats and dog, with plenty of affection, exercise and treats! I do my best to follow their routine while you are away, ensuring your pet feels comfortable and loved.
“Katie is a kind sweet person who I trust to be in my home and to take care of my two precious fur babies. She arrived on time stayed the duration of the expected visit time and completed the tasks of which I requested upon scheduling this visit.”

About: Big dogs and little dogs are all happy dogs. I enjoy taking care of and spending time with animals. I have had experience since my childhood I will be more active in my life physically walking them and taking care of them. It’s a perfect job cute animals and taking care of them for money. It’s perfect. I will take the best care of your pet at your home. Just let me know if they need something or have a certain routine and I got it!
About: I have been surrounded by animals for most of my life and truly believe they are some of the most loyal and loving companions. I currently have a 16-year-old Papillon, and I was blessed to have my Pit Bull for 13 wonderful years before she passed away last year. Caring for senior dogs has taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of providing gentle, loving care. I also have experience caring for my sister’s two Bengal cats, whom I lived with and helped care for over the course of two years. This has given me experience with both dogs and cats and an understanding that every pet has a unique personality and needs. In addition, I worked at Dogtopia, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. That experience strengthened my ability to multitask, remain calm in busy environments, and ensure every dog received the attention, affection, and care they deserved. During the school year, I work as a substitute teacher, which gives me a flexible schedule. I adapt quickly to new routines and understand how important it is for pet owners to know their furry family members are in safe, caring hands. When caring for your pets, I will treat them as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, respect, and lots of love. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, cuddling on the couch, or simply keeping them company, my goal is to make them feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect that I would expect for my own. I’m a substitute teacher during the school year, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to make time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. My day usually starts at 5:30am or 6:00am and ends by 4pm, with my weekends being free and many holidays off. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions exactly as provided to ensure their routine stays consistent and stress-free. I’m very neat, organized, and respectful of the home, and I always treat it as if it were my own. I make sure doors and gates are securely closed at all times, keep a close eye on pets when they’re outside, and stay alert for any wildlife or other potential hazards. My goal is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy while maintaining a clean and well-cared-for home environment.
“Kayla was a wonderful sitter with my german shepherd, Hershey. She kept me very informed and sent adorable pictures and videos throughout the day. She’s a very kind girl who will take care of your dog with the utmost care and respect! Will definitely be using her services again!”

About: Hi! I'm Rachel and I'd love to care for your pet! Willing to accept outside of my service range (rate changes may apply). I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember - basically, if it has fur, fins, wings, or whiskers, I'm a fan. I've proudly been a cat mom since 2010 and my 3 current babies are my whole world (and let's be real, my personality too). Since 2023, I've been volunteering with cats and small animals at a local shelter (affectionately known there as "Cat Rachel"), working with cats of all different temperaments -from shy wallflowers, snuggly lovebugs, fur divas, and the “don’t-look-at-me” types. I've also been pet-sitting on and off since 2010 including cats, dogs, guinea pigs, bunnies, and tropical fish. If your trust your pet with me, I will: - treat them like they're part of my own fur-family - be patient while they warm up to me (I let them set the vibe) - follow your instructions and respect your home - give them dedicated quality time in the way they enjoy (whether that be play-time, cuddling, walks, quiet companionship, etc. - send regular updates and photos Basically, if your pet needs love, snacks, or someone to treat them like the tiny celebrity they are, I’ve got it covered. For full transparency I am a full-time working professional. I work in the Ridgefield area 4 days a week with Fridays as my work-from-home day. I'm really mindful about my schedule and only take on visits I can give my full attention to. While cats are definitely my specialty these days, I’m always happy to consider other animals too! Mondays through Thursdays: AM & PM visits before and after work, sometimes can do a lunchtime visit if in Ridgefield. Fridays: AM & PM visit, sometimes can do a lunchtime visit if in Shelton, overnight stays. Saturdays and Sundays: Flexible, 3 visits a day, and overnight stays. Safety is my #1 priority - ensuring your pets feel secure and comfortable. My goal is to provide a stress-free, trustworthy experience which is why I only accept bookings I can confidently handle based on each pet's needs and my experience. During my visits: - I respect your space and follow all care instructions and house rules. - I ensure doors, windows, and gates are secure. Doors are opened with extreme caution. - I ensure they have access to everything they need and their water dishes are full. - For cats, even if they sometimes goes outside, they must be and remain inside for the entirety of my visit. I will ensure their litter boxes are cleaned. - For dogs, there will be double checks of leashes, collars, and/or harnesses.
“I cannot stress enough how wonderful, caring, and kind Moe is. We trust her 100% with our dog and wouldn't use anyone else to take care of Ruby. We truly appreciate you Moe!”

About: I have taken care of my dog Leo and occasionally my neighbors dogs. I have been surrounded my dogs my entire life and am comfortable with them. I am currently on break from college. I have ample time to provide your dog with the best care. I enjoy walking in any weather. I live in a calm neighborhood with back roads. I walk my dog twice a day and uphold a medicine schedule. I follow a routine that includes play and relax time.
About: I have grown so fond of taking care of fur babies the more years I do it. I enjoy working with all different breeds and building a connection to the pets I take care of. I’ve learn to work with all ages, breeds, behaviors. The best part? Knowing that people entrust me to bring their fur babies back to me, and knowing that the dogs are excited to return. I have a part time job currently so I have plenty of time to be with your pet(s) whenever I’m not at work, so it’s flexible. I like to thoroughly ask questions about the dog I’ll be taking care of (food, any medications? Exercise? Do they like to play? Etc.) I want to make sure not only yourself but the dog is as comfortable as can be.
About: My name is Katiana Thoby and I have been dog sitting since 2017. I am able to watch your cute pets any time of the week (unless the day is marked off)! You will love my patience, kindness, and affection towards the dog. I've watched my friends' dogs before and learned how to work with them and take care of them properly. I enjoyed playing some games like fetch and running around with them. Since my parents don't like animals, I can't have my own dog. When I have my own house, I want a dog of my own so this will be a good experience for me. Thank you and I hope to work with you soon.. I am currently working full time so I will be available to dog sit on the weekends or tuesdays after 5:30pm! Just let me know in advance and I can open a booking for you. I will be available on some holidays but I will let you know in advance! Please make sure to book at least two days in advance. That way, I can make sure I don’t have any other appointments that day. I may accommodate some last minute bookings if I am available the whole stay period. Most of the time, they stay indoors and I attend to them as much as possible! They will be fed on the times provided and well taken care of! If you would like me to provide a bath as well, please let me know. I love playing with them so I usually bring your pets to the park as long as the owner is okay with it (also provides a leash)!

About: I have taken care of many dogs since I was 14. I can take care of a high energy puppy who needs to get all of their energy out. I love spending time with older, calmer dogs as well who need just as much love. I am very on top of it when taking care of your pets and will make sure they get the best care possible. I also have experience with cats and can make sure they are as comfortable as possible. I am also very flexible in the type of care and the times you need! i’m not really busy during the summer so I have plenty of time to watch your pets. I do have a part-time restaurant job, but I only work once to twice a week. I have a big yard for your dog to roam around. I would need you to provide a crate or a leash for your pets.
About: My family has adopted 4 dogs over the span of 10 years. I have good experience with taking care of my family friends dogs and other fury friends!

I have a good amount of free time open and can't wait to start taking care of your animals! I live in an apartment which is dog and cat friendly. It has its own mini dog park/area on site. It also has lots of walking trails for some long walks.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Trumbull
Lindsay was so great with my cat and dog! She gave them lots of attention and helped look after them (litter box, food, water, bathroom break etc!) She was also very communicative as well as friendly. I appreciate her helping us out the last two days and will definitely be asking her to come back.

We are so happy to have found Charlie! Our chocolate lab is full of energy and tends to pull on walks. After meeting Charlie and learning about her experience working with larger dogs, we felt very comfortable leaving him in her hands. She kept us updated and even sent over photos of the visit. We’ll definitely be using her again in the future!

Taylor is fantastic with our dog! She takes great care of her, is on time and communicates clearly about her visits! Cheez is always happy and calm when we come home from her time with Taylor and we love that we have someone we can trust to care for her while we’re away!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Trumbull choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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 sitter.
