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.

About: I have plenty of experience being around and helping take care of dogs all ages sizes and breeds! I love pups who want to run around or just lounge on the couch! I’m more than happy to treat yours like my own. I’m currently a full time second year graduate student at SHU, but my classes are mostly in the morning. I have some long days but always finish before 5. Fridays are wide open including weekends and most days I’m done fairly early! I am happy to accommodate whatever safety measures make you and your pup comfortable! If they need to be crated that’s perfectly fine, if they can run around without a leash that’s also great too!
About: While I'm newer to pet sitting, I spent 15 years caring for my own dog and understand the responsibility, patience, and attention that every pet deserves. I love being outdoors myself, going on long walks, and staying active, so I'm happy to give energetic dogs the exercise and attention they need. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I'll provide dependable care and regular updates while you're away! I'm a college student and coach, so my mornings and early afternoons are usually busy. However, I have the rest of my afternoons and evenings free, which allows me to provide reliable walks, drop-in visits, or quality time with your dog. I'm happy to fit pet care into my routine and make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. When caring for pets, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while sticking to their normal routine as much as possible. Having cared for my own large, energetic dog for many years, I understand the importance of supervision, patience, and making sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need. In a client's home, I'll follow your pet's routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any specific instructions you provide. I'll also make sure your home is treated with respect and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

About: I've been dog sitting for the past 6 years and have a lot of hands on experience with a variety of animals. From raising guiding eye dogs, volunteering at a vet's office, and working on a farm, you know that your pets will be safe in my care. I have two dogs of my own and have been surrounded by animals my whole life. I love to meet new animals and can't wait to help your pet next! I'm currently in college from around 9-4 and as a result I have to work my schedule around classes. It depends on a day to day basis but I am mainly free on weekends. I will constantly give your pet the attention they need. I understand that every animal is different and as such I will change my methods for each one. I will always be on time and will make sure that during every visit they are happy and healthy. I will go out of my way if they need to make a last minute visit to the vet or if I need to stay another night unexpectedly.
About: I've had at least one golden retriever at once my whole childhood and I have helped train all of them. We currently have two goldens and I love taking them on walks/runs, playing with them, and cuddling with them:) I am currently on summer break until the end of August, so my schedule is very flexible and I have plenty of availability for pet care! I’m able to provide walks, drop in visits, and house sitting throughout the week and weekends. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and safe. I always respect each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box care, medications, and any special instructions from their owner. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, love, playtime, and care while keeping their environment clean and secure. When house sitting, I treat every home with the same respect and responsibility as I would my own.
About: I love animals, especially dogs. They bring me joy and I wish to keep them safe and sound for you. They are my family too Currently working Mon- Friday 8-5pm, willing to do weekends and if necessary, weekdays but please contact ahead of time as I work 30 mins away. My husky lives at my parents house with a fenced yard, since my place doesn’t accept large dogs. He is well cared for and loved
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: 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.

About: Hello, I am an empty nester 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
“Dahn is always so great with our dogs! We love having her because we know there is nothing to worry about when we’re away. She’s prompt and always leaves a very detailed summary with lots of pictures for us. We always recommend Dahn and will continue to use her!”

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.
About: I treat every pet like they're part of my own family. I provide reliable, personalized care based on each pet's unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether it's daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or extra cuddle time, my goal is to keep pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free while you're away. I'm experienced with puppies, including reinforcing basic training and maintaining consistent routines, as well as caring for senior pets who may need a gentler pace, medication reminders, or extra patience and attention. I believe in clear communication that allows for peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving, dependable hands. I have a fully flexible schedule over the summer months July and August; Monday-Sunday. September-June, I am available Monday-Friday from 3:30 P.M. on ( I could do a drop by feeding prior to 6 A.M. only) and have full availability Saturday and Sunday’s. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I stick closely to your pet's normal routine, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, cuddle time, administering medications if needed, or simply providing calm companionship. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality and what makes them happiest. During each visit, I'll refresh food and water, clean up after your pet, keep litter boxes clean, and make sure your home is left just as I found it. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or a senior, my goal is to give them the same patience, attention, and love I give my own pets, so you can travel or work with complete peace of mind.

About: Socialized dogs will absolutely have a great time staying with me as we spend time at the dog park and make new friends! High energy pups are my favorite as I'm a long distance runner and can handle extended walks/runs with your buddy. I've had 3 years experience at dog kennels and was responsible for monitoring group play of up to 20 dogs in one yard. Puppy group play was my favorite and most intensive role as I was trained to recognize dog body language and maintain safety when pups were getting too ruff. During my time in kennels, I also was able to provide scheduled feedings and administer oral medications daily. My family owns an elderly dog with arthritis, and during cold months I am willing to carry dogs up/down stairs to avoid slips on snow/ice. During a long-term stay I will gladly spend time with your pooch for walks, play time and socializing, naps, massages, and feedings. Observing dog behavior during each of these parts of our day is important to me. This allows me have a detailed report of your pet's stay when you return. Keeping track of any behavioral, digestive, or sleep-related issues is always made a top priority for my guests. I typically begin my day with walking any dogs that are staying overnight with me, could be at the dog park, then feeding them, and then heading out for 1-2 hours to walk my regular clients on weekdays. With winter approaching, we may need to minimize time spent on walks during heavy snow/rain. However, larger breeds who can handle snow days are encouraged to stay with me for extended outdoor play. It's very important to me to establish trust with new dogs at their own pace. This is easily done by giving the typical commands and rewarding with treats, as well as affirming trust on leashed walks. In my apartment building there are other dogs who live on my floor, and I'm very vigilant about who is in the hallway or stairwells when I am taking a dog outside. Within my apartment unit, your pet can freely relax on the couch or large rugs I have. Smaller breeds are also welcome to relax on my bed along with me when its time to sleep. I do my best to keep dogs calm and like to be hands on with lots of belly rubs and ear scratching as most dogs seem to really enjoy that. Its also important to me to clean my apartment before and after I have pets staying overnight.
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by pets and have always loved animals. I’m currently a proud dog and cat owner, so I understand how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to have someone trustworthy care for them. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and other pets. I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive, and I’ll make sure your pet gets the care, attention, exercise, and affection they need while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and will treat your animals like they’re my own. I’m a single stay at home mom, so I have lots of time to care for and walk your beloved pets ! I drop my kids at school in the mornings and pick them up in the afternoon, so my availability is very flexible ! I’ve loved and cared for pets my whole life! I grew up with dogs, cats, and just about every caged animal you can think of. I currently have a 3-year-old Maltipoo and a 5-year-old cat, so I understand how much our pets mean to us!
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.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Trumbull
Meral was wonderful with my dogs! She was very sweet, reliable, and attentive, especially with my puppies who need a little extra care. She followed all my instructions and made me feel completely comfortable leaving them with her. You can really tell she loves dogs, and I’m so glad to have found someone I trust so close to home. I would definitely book her again!

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!

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.
