About: Hi! My name is Sam and I'm here to help ease your anxiety 🩷 I'm all too familiar with the constant cloud of worry that can follow you around when you're not with your dog, so I will do anything I can to help alleviate any anxiety you have about leaving your best friend at home for the day (or while you go on that much-needed vacation)! I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have been taking care of them since I was in high school. From raising a puppy to caring for a senior, I've been there through every stage of life. I have experience managing chronic conditions that require medication multiple times a day, dietary restrictions, and administering sub-q fluids. I understand what it means to care for a dog both physically and emotionally - dogs are family, end of story. What to expect when you book with me: ✔️ solid communication: I love to send photo updates and will respond to any texts as soon as possible ✔️ undivided attention: your dog is my #1 priority, always ✔️ reliability: I will arrive on time and follow any directions you leave to a T ✔️ endless patience: your dog and your worries are never an inconvenience Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and I can't wait to meet your fuzzy family members! I work from home full-time on my small, handmade business, so I'm almost always able to rearrange my schedule to fit in your dog's needs! I'm extremely attentive to your dog to make sure they are always safe and well-cared for. I listen to their needs and follow any schedule you leave for me.
“Jasmine is an amazing walker. Jasmine always communicated with me about any changes with times. She took great care of Aliza. I will definitely recommend her to anyone and will be using her all the time”


“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: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is the personalized care and attention I give to every dog. I treat each pet like a member of my own family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I provide plenty of playtime, exercise, updates, and affection, while also following each dog’s unique routine and needs. With my experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, pet owners can feel confident knowing their furry friend is in a caring and reliable environment. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule. As a teacher, I have a structured routine and plenty of experience providing care, supervision, and attention throughout the day. During the summer, I am home full-time, which allows me to dedicate even more time to the pets in my care. This means frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of companionship throughout the day. Because I am home, pets are rarely left alone and can enjoy a safe, comfortable, and attentive environment while their owners are away. I have a fenced yard with a nice size backyard where the dogs can run around and enjoy the weather. And they will be supervised
“I realized that Dahn was the prefect person to take care of my geriatric Maltese mix as soon as I met her. Snowdrop was totally at ease with her from the get go. Snowdrop has renal failure and is blind so she needs additional tender loving care. Dahn took care of all her needs including diapering her and tending to her poopy accidents. She kept me posted with pictures and texts which I really appreciated - all of which helped me to be totally at ease during my recent trip. I highly recommend Dahn and I will definitely book with her again.”

“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: I have taken care of and walked many types of dogs since I can remember. Neighbors have relied on me to take care of their pets when they were away on vacation. I am currently searching for work but I am able to walk animals on the daily. I am also able to drop into peoples homes on the daily I will ensure the safety of the animal following the instructions of the owner. I currently am living away for college so I my dog is not with me currently.
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.
About: Im comfortable working with friendly dogs of different ages, including puppies who need extra attention and older dogs who may need a slower, more gentle approach. Plus, my dog is very friendly and enjoys the company, which can help other dogs feel more comfortable and social. I’m currently in school for ultrasound, so with my full-time schedule, I’ve been looking for a flexible way to earn some extra income. I really enjoy walking my dog, and I’m interested in turning that into a small business to help others who need dog walking services while also building connections with other dogs. My dog is very friendly and would definitely enjoy the extra company. I care for pets in both my home and my client’s home, depending on the service. I make sure they have a safe, clean space, follow their feeding and walking routines, and give them plenty of attention. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to keep their pet comfortable and cared for.
About: Hi my name is Sofia! 😁🐾 Growing up I’ve had a range of pets, from hamsters to iguanas. Dogs have always been in my life! I’ve owned two Rat Terriers and currently go on frequent walks with my partners yorkie poo. I take pride in my care for animals, as well as people. I was my own grandmas care provider, as well as a Diet Aid Server for the senior living, so I understand the necessity for patience, routine, and consistency. Your pet will be in great hands while we await your return! I’m looking to board on the weekdays (Mon-Thurs) at any time, and I am available on the weekends (Fri-Sun) in the early morning to early afternoon. When I dog walk, I don’t wear headphones or earbuds for my own as well as my dog’s safety. I also always put protective weather gear on the dogs I walk when it’s chilly, snowy, or rainy! I prioritize early morning or late evening walking when it’s hot.

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
“Moe has been so great for my pups. She stops in to let them out and play with them while I’m at work. She’s very communicative about her schedule and I get picture every time!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life and have extensive experience with friends, family, and my own dogs! What sets me apart is the personalized care and attention I give to every dog, treating them like part of my own family. I have experience working with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors. I am reliable and easily adapt to your dogs needs, whether that includes extra play time or gentle care. I am extremely attentive and focus on building trust—with both pets and their humans—so you can feel completely confident and at ease while you're away. I am currently a graduate student at Sacred Heart University. I am studying to get my doctorate in physical therapy. I am unable to work a full time job due to my rigorous class schedule and am hoping to earn some extra money through pet services. I am able to dog sit during the weekends and can offer dog walking or short pet care services in between or after my classes during the week. My top priority is creating a safe, calm, and loving environment that feels familiar and comfortable for each pet. I stick closely to their usual routines—feeding schedules, walk times, and playtime to reduce stress and keep them happy while you're away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and follow all instructions to the letter—from administering medication to reinforcing routines. I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
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 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 am currently at home for the summer in Norwalk, but usually I am living in Bridgeport attending Sacred Heart University as a rising senior! I have a fenced yard with 3 very friendly and playful dogs at home that allows them a lot of space while also keeping them close in sight and safe!
“Kayla's care for my insulin dependent senior cat was amazing. I was a little hesitant hiring someone new, as I had just moved to the area. But Kayla truly made me feel as though she had Buster's best interest in mind! She gave me detailed information about how Buster was doing during her visit updates on Rover, and sent along photos. When I got back home, Buster missed me but was very relaxed, which means that he felt very taken care of! Kayla even put ice cubes in Buster's water since it was a little hot here while I was away. And she was sure to alert me if she was running behind for a scheduled visit, though considering how many people she likely has as clients, that is understandable! I would hire her again in a heartbeat.”


About: I have taken care of animals ever since I can remember as I grew up with lots of pets and took on responsibility for them from an early age. I have worked on a farm in the past, which gave me the chance to work with all kinds of animals. I love all animals, especially dogs. I have had the opportunity to channel that love into pet sitting and walking other pets for neighbors and clients for about a year. I have taken care of a variety of pets, especially dogs ranging from young puppies to seniors. With my care, clients can be assured that their pets will be safely taken care of and loved. I am a student home for the summer so I have a pretty flexible schedule! I am available throughout the day Monday through Saturday, so I will be able to dedicate lots of time to caring for your pet! I follow any specific instructions for pets, making sure they are well-fed and exercised. I am willing to either play with the pet at home or take them on walks, whichever is preferable.

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.

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.
