“Karen took our Poodle puppy on a last minute request and we’re so happy she did! She stayed in contact throughout, sent tons of photos and videos and was very flexible with pickup and drop off time. She even gave us a little parting gift! Would definitely recommend Karen if you are in the New London/Mystic area!”
“Brittany was AMAZING! Our dog, Bailey was only 18 weeks old and she knew all the right things to do with a puppy. We never worried once about his care. She sent pictures every day of his antics which made us laugh but also convinced us that he was happy and loved. She was in tune with his quirky personality, from his removal of ALL the toys from the toy box before deciding what to play with, to helping with the laundry by stealing the socks, to proudly carrying things around that he “found” . AND Brittany was reasonably priced. We will use her again in a heartbeat. We felt so incredibly blessed to have found her. We can’t thank her enough for making our vacation stress free.”
“Miranda and her family took exceptional care of my two dogs and treated them like they were a part of their family while my husband and I were away. Miranda sent me pictures and let me know how they were doing periodically which was greatly appreciated. She was also able to accept the booking with short notice and her rates were very affordable. I highly recommend Miranda if you are in need of a dog sitter and I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future! Thanks Miranda!”
“Elisa was wonderful with communication and updates for my Bru, as well as very responsive. Very easy and professional to book with and very trustworthy. Would absolutely use her services again in the future. 🐾”
“Torie was amazing ! Can't thank her enough for watching my dog Jax for 10 days ! Torie provided excellent communication and plenty of photos from Jax's stay. Would highly recommend to all”
“Willow had a great stay with Dana! We came back to pick something up that I left and Willow couldn’t contain her excitement. Dana is very prompt to respond and was able to accommodate a last minute request for us. Willow came back exhausted after her 3 night stay! This is a good fit for dogs that love other dogs (there were at least 6 other dogs while Willow was there). Lots of room to run and play so it’s like non stop daycare.”
“Eva was wonderful with Tiana! I highly recommend her. She took Tiana on many walks and just loved her. It is so comforting while you are away to know that your pet is being so well cared for.”
“Super accommodating with the short notice booking I requested! Steph is bright and friendly. She let me know if there were any issues with my pup. Would book with her again!”
“We don’t leave our dog often and have been out of the area for a while so we were nervous. We were truly happy with Oscar’s care with Erica and her family. Erica kept us posted and sent pics to put us at ease. Oscar was very relaxed when we picked him up and not mad at us at all. Would definitely leave him in their care again.”
“Wonderful, caring, considerate, and responsible family boarded our two pomskies. Responsive and communicative - sent pictures and updates. Dogs got walked and played with. Medicine was successfully administered. Generous and flexible- dogs were able to stay a few extra days to accommodate some changes in our plans. Dogs were well taken care of, would definitely book with Matt B again.”
“We went on a 16 day trip out of the country and we knew Marley was in safe and caring hands. We got regular videos which reassured us he was happy and having a great time with the other dogs. The best review was when we were eating at an outdoor restaurant patio and suddenly he started to wag his tail like crazy! I was trying to think of who would cause that type of reaction, and it was Shannon and her husband! We will definitely be going back to Shannon.”
“Wil was really great with my dog, even though he is usually reactive he behaved wonderfully with him and I could tell he had a really good time there! I will definitely be booking again! There was some slight confusion though since I wasn’t told it wouldn’t be Francis herself watching my dog but rather her parents, which was fine as they were great with him but it was a surprise.”
“I left my Baby (Mr. Prince) with Ms. Geneva and will plan to have her sit for us again. She was courteous and polite. She kept me updated on how he was doing as well as sent pictures. This really eased my mind without me even asking her to. I met her the day before and felt comfortable. I highly recommend her for sitting and as I stated earlier, I plan to utilize her services again.”

“Always a little scary leaving your family pets in the care of a stranger, but after our meet & greet with Elizabeth I knew she was the right one! Our cats need daily meds which can be challenging, and she took this on without hesitation. She went above and beyond and cleaned the litter boxes out and put new litter in before we came home which was a wonderful surprise, and we’re so appreciative of it. I would absolutely recommend her and use her again to watch our cats in the future!”
About: With 13 years of experience, I care for pets of all ages—puppies to seniors. What truly sets me apart as a pet sitter is the level of care, attention, and heart I bring to every animal I look after. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all pet sitting—every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to match their individual routines, personalities, and preferences. Whether it’s maintaining a strict feeding schedule, keeping up with daily walks, or simply spending quality time playing or cuddling, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and understood in your absence. I have extensive experience with a wide range of animals, including those with special needs such as senior pets, animals with anxiety, or those requiring regular medications. I’m confident in providing not only basic care but also the kind of gentle, attentive support that pets with extra needs require. My calm demeanor and understanding of pet behavior allow me to build trust quickly, even with shy or nervous animals. Communication is key when someone else is caring for your furry family members, so I prioritize regular updates. I send messages, photos, and videos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel reassured that they’re happy and in great hands. I want you to be able to truly relax while you’re away, knowing your pet is not just being looked after, but genuinely cared for. In addition to being loving and attentive, I’m also well-prepared for emergencies. I stay calm under pressure and know how to respond quickly if something unexpected arises, from minor injuries to more serious situations. This preparedness ensures that your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I strive to create a nurturing, home-like environment filled with comfort, routine, and affection. I genuinely love animals, and that passion comes through in everything I do—from the wag of a tail to the purr of a happy cat, I thrive on making pets feel secure and content. Being a pet sitter is more than a job to me—it’s a privilege, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. 🩵 A little about me: I currently have 3 dogs of my own. One is a senior Chihuahua and the other two are 1 yr old Dobermans. I'm available during the week mornings between 9am and 1pm and evenings between 4:30 and 8pm. I work around my kids school schedules and sports. I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or quiet snuggles. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. You'll get daily updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: I have a family dog who is 6 years old as well as my own dog who is 2.5 years old. My dogs are my whole world, I treat them as if they were my children!

I am currently completing an internship that requires me to be active in the evenings so I am pretty much open all mornings and afternoons! I can be very flexible. I will comply with any directions and preferences provided to me. Your dogs safety and happiness is my priority and they will always be treated with respect and love.
“Excellent experience with Jessica. Professional, reliable, and great communication throughout. She truly went above and beyond, which gave me complete confidence leaving my dog in her care. I would absolutely book again.”
“Natalie was very accommodating especially with plans that fell through multiple times on my end. She then allowed a short term notice booking and did an amazing job and was very communicative.”
About: I have dog sat my neighbors dog multiple times over the past two years. I have 2 dogs at home and take care of them by walking, playing, feeding, etc. I am a college student and have classes throughout the day.

My dogs at home are very energetic so it is constant play and walking.
“Kate was absolutely amazing! We were so worried about our special needs cat while we were out of town but both of our cats and dog loved her!! She was able to get out very shy cat to eat his medicine and play with her in such a short amount of time. We will definitely be using Kate in the future when we’re out of town!”

“This was my first time ever leaving Ange. I was a little nervous, but everything went great over all. Carolina text me through out the day and made me feel so comfortable with me leaving Ange. I will definitely use Carolina in the near future.”
“Elizabeth and her family took such good care of our dog for the day. They provided a wonderful home with spacious backyard for him to run around with their golden retrievers, AND took him hiking in the snow (which our dog loves). We really appreciated Elizabeth accepting our booking request with pretty short notice as well. We definitely recommend Elizabeth!”
“Our Roo had a wonderful time. We picked him up and he was a very happy and tired boy. Suzanne has a great fenced back yard that is perfect for dogs. She’s very responsive and we so appreciated her taking Roo on fairly short notice. Thank you Suzanne.”
“Molly has severe separation anxiety and can’t be left alone, which limits what we can do during the week. We have been looking for someone to watch her regularly for church on Sundays though and I’m so glad we found Madelyn! We drop Molly off in the morning and pick her up a few hours later and we know she’s in good hands. Madelyn provides prompt communication and takes good care of our girl!”
About: I offer structured, enrichment-focused boarding and daycare in my home, with an emphasis on helping each dog feel safe, understood, and cared for. I’ve been training dogs since 2022 and welcome dogs of all training backgrounds, meeting every dog and owner with compassion, respect, and empathy. I’m comfortable using a variety of tools, including harnesses, e-collars, and prong collars, based on what works best for your dog. I’m a former Veterinary Technician with four years of experience, and I’m confident administering medications, caring for senior dogs, and closely monitoring health and behavior. Your dog’s comfort and well-being are always my top priorities. Boarding includes a structured walk, play and yard time, place/relaxation work, and a hike. For safety and peace of mind, dogs are crated when unsupervised, so boarding clients must be crate trained. All dogs must be up to date on vaccinations, including rabies and distemper. To ensure the best fit and answer any questions, all new clients are required to complete an in-person meet and greet prior to booking. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day and able to give dogs consistent attention, structure, and care. Our days include structured walks, enrichment activities, play and yard time, relaxation/place work, and hikes when appropriate. I closely monitor each dog’s behavior, energy level, and comfort, and I tailor care to their individual needs. With my training background and veterinary experience, I’m able to provide attentive, knowledgeable care while keeping dogs safe, calm, and happy in my home. In my home, dogs are cared for in a safe, structured, and comfortable environment. I have kennels in a variety of sizes to ensure every dog can rest comfortably and securely when needed. On days when outdoor activities aren’t possible due to weather, I provide indoor options such as treadmills and a variety of interactive enrichment activities to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged. When weather allows, I take advantage of nearby trails and parks to give dogs safe, enriching adventures that suit their energy level and needs.
About: Hi! I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have extensive experience caring for pups of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I truly love being around animals and treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to accommodate your pet’s needs—whether that means caring for them in your home or welcoming them into mine, where I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always prioritize communication and will keep you updated for complete peace of mind! I work from home full-time, which allows me to be very flexible with pet care throughout the day. I’m able to take dogs out frequently, provide attention, and fit in short walks as needed. In my home, dogs have access to a safe, fully fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time, along with plenty of attention, play, and comfort indoors. I stick closely to each dog’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special care needs. In a client’s home, I’m equally attentive and respectful, making sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment while maintaining their normal routine and providing consistent care, affection, and updates.
“Karen was a great dog sitter for our little guy. She sent photo updates, was kind, & we knew our dog was in good hands. We would definitely book with Karen again. Thank you.”
“We were in town visiting from Virginia and needed to find someone to watch our baby Jax for a day. So glad we found Elisa! She was very responsive to our request and was able to accommodate our change in pick up time. I can tell her and her family treated Jax like one of their own because he adapted so quickly! And I can tell he had a lot of fun because he instantly went to sleep. We’ll definitely book Elisa again if we need another sitter when we’re back in town!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Sue! She was so incredibly accommodating and patient with my dog. My dog, Sadie, was uncharacteristically anxious and scared on our vacation. She was having a really hard time separating from me at all. Sue took the time to get her acclimated with the new environment and allowed me into her home to give Sadie time to adjust and get comfortable. She played calming music for Sadie and gave her her favorite treat- peanut butter. By the time we picked Sadie up, she was very happy and more back to herself. Sue gave Sadie so much love and attention the whole time I was at the aquarium. I was able to have a good time, knowing my dog was in good hands. Sue kept me updated on Sadie’s progress with texts, pictures and videos. I am so very grateful and would recommend Sue to anyone seeking a great pet sitter!”
“I highly recommend Shelby! She provided top-notch care for Kuma and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy. Communication was excellent and I was updated regularly with pictures and updates. I felt confident leaving my dog in their capable hands and will definitely be using their services again in the future. 5 stars!”
About: I have helped families take care of their pets (and kids!) for over 20 years! I just moved to Westerly with my husband, rescue pup, and sweet senior cat and we just had our first child. I enjoy helping families with their fur babies as I settle into being a stay at home mom! Depending on the baby’s schedule, sometimes my husband does the visits for me or we all go together with the baby in a carrier— let me know in advance if you have any issues. Being a mother is my full time job, so my schedule is very flexible! Feel free to inquire about a date that is marked unavailable. I take into consideration what each pet needs during my visits, whether that’s a long walk, a few rounds of fetch or just some cuddles.
“Jen is the best and is super flexible with our crazy schedules. She takes care of our little girl with the utmost care and love. Daisy is sad to go on vacation and miss Jen’s place!💕”
“Adam and Jennifer were wonderful! They were flexible and responsive, kept me updated with a sweet picture and message, and most importantly, took such great care of my senior boy. It gave me real peace of mind while we were at a family gathering nearby. Highly recommend!”

“Albert and Amanda are just amazing. Miss Nova had a blast visiting for the day and they helped introduce her and socialize with the other dogs. I felt so comfortable leaving her and so proud when we received pictures/video of her playing. This short visit was in preparation for a longer stay down the road and I couldn't have been happier with the experience and all the communication to plan for the stay. I would highly recommend Albert and Amanda as they are extremely knowledgeable. They are not only dog sitters but trainers who are willing to educate.”
About: I’ve had all kinds of pets growing up, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and some friendly neighborhood chickens. I love them all!

I have a very flexible schedule since I only have a part time job, and I take quite a bit of work from this app :) I love taking walks, so I provide anywhere from two to four potty breaks or trips outside throughout the day. I also enjoy hiking and I like to bring pups with a bit more energy to tag along. I’m more than happy to stay in your home with your pets if discussed and my main concern is that your pets are happy, safe, and just like you left them.

If necessary, for separation/calm down time, I have a baby gate available that can break up my kitchen and living room and I also have a spare room upstairs. There will be no instances where our pets are left alone unmonitored for the safety of both parties.

“Great experience using rover for first time. I couldn’t walk my dogs because of ankle surgery. Ashlyne responded right away and came over on short notice and walked my two dogs, an 11yrs old black lab and an 1yrs old black lab / Belgian malinois mix. They both liked her and went walking with her with no hesitation. Plan to use Ashlyne again and highly recommend her.”

“Jennifer has been so great with my anxious dog Cambria.

I would recommend Jennifer to everyone who is a little nervous about leaving their dog, she is so kind and compassionate and made my anxious dog feel at ease.”

I truly love being around animals and treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to accommodate your pet’s needs—whether that means caring for them in your home or welcoming them into mine, where I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always prioritize communication and will keep you updated for complete peace of mind! I work from home full-time, which allows me to be very flexible with pet care throughout the day. I’m able to take dogs out frequently, provide attention, and fit in short walks as needed. In my home, dogs have access to a safe, fully fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time, along with plenty of attention, play, and comfort indoors. I stick closely to each dog’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special care needs. In a client’s home, I’m equally attentive and respectful, making sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment while maintaining their normal routine and providing consistent care, affection, and updates.
About: I've lived with dogs nearly my whole life, and cats for half of it. I have taken care of said pets for years and been an in-family pet sitter on numerous occasions. My mother frequently cares for other pets through apps like this/through friends, and I assist her with that when needed. At the moment, I care for my mother's pets when she leaves town for any length of time (1 small/medium dog, 1 cat). Otherwise, I'm a free agent. Some of the services listed on the app have the potential to overlap (such as a visit and a walk), I don't consider the price to be totally compounding, just let me know and we can figure out what works best. I'd imagine this is on a situational basis. I'll pet/feed/walk them and am able to follow directions as well as any human, should your pet require specific, or unique, handling. I can usually read pet body language pretty well, but have no specific training in it. If there are any areas of confusion for me, I'll be sure to ask questions to make sure your pet is cared for properly.

“Brittany was AMAZING! Our dog, Bailey was only 18 weeks old and she knew all the right things to do with a puppy. We never worried once about his care. She sent pictures every day of his antics which made us laugh but also convinced us that he was happy and loved. She was in tune with his quirky personality, from his removal of ALL the toys from the toy box before deciding what to play with, to helping with the laundry by stealing the socks, to proudly carrying things around that he “found” . AND Brittany was reasonably priced. We will use her again in a heartbeat. We felt so incredibly blessed to have found her. We can’t thank her enough for making our vacation stress free.”
“Miranda and her family took exceptional care of my two dogs and treated them like they were a part of their family while my husband and I were away. Miranda sent me pictures and let me know how they were doing periodically which was greatly appreciated. She was also able to accept the booking with short notice and her rates were very affordable. I highly recommend Miranda if you are in need of a dog sitter and I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future! Thanks Miranda!”
“Elisa was wonderful with communication and updates for my Bru, as well as very responsive. Very easy and professional to book with and very trustworthy. Would absolutely use her services again in the future. 🐾”
“Torie was amazing ! Can't thank her enough for watching my dog Jax for 10 days ! Torie provided excellent communication and plenty of photos from Jax's stay. Would highly recommend to all”
“Willow had a great stay with Dana! We came back to pick something up that I left and Willow couldn’t contain her excitement. Dana is very prompt to respond and was able to accommodate a last minute request for us. Willow came back exhausted after her 3 night stay! This is a good fit for dogs that love other dogs (there were at least 6 other dogs while Willow was there). Lots of room to run and play so it’s like non stop daycare.”
“Eva was wonderful with Tiana! I highly recommend her. She took Tiana on many walks and just loved her. It is so comforting while you are away to know that your pet is being so well cared for.”
“Super accommodating with the short notice booking I requested! Steph is bright and friendly. She let me know if there were any issues with my pup. Would book with her again!”
“We don’t leave our dog often and have been out of the area for a while so we were nervous. We were truly happy with Oscar’s care with Erica and her family. Erica kept us posted and sent pics to put us at ease. Oscar was very relaxed when we picked him up and not mad at us at all. Would definitely leave him in their care again.”
“We went on a 16 day trip out of the country and we knew Marley was in safe and caring hands. We got regular videos which reassured us he was happy and having a great time with the other dogs. The best review was when we were eating at an outdoor restaurant patio and suddenly he started to wag his tail like crazy! I was trying to think of who would cause that type of reaction, and it was Shannon and her husband! We will definitely be going back to Shannon.”
“Wil was really great with my dog, even though he is usually reactive he behaved wonderfully with him and I could tell he had a really good time there! I will definitely be booking again! There was some slight confusion though since I wasn’t told it wouldn’t be Francis herself watching my dog but rather her parents, which was fine as they were great with him but it was a surprise.”
“I left my Baby (Mr. Prince) with Ms. Geneva and will plan to have her sit for us again. She was courteous and polite. She kept me updated on how he was doing as well as sent pictures. This really eased my mind without me even asking her to. I met her the day before and felt comfortable. I highly recommend her for sitting and as I stated earlier, I plan to utilize her services again.”

“If I could leave 10 stars I would! This was the longest time apart from my pup and was very nervous, Erica and family made me feel at ease with her communication and pictures of my pup. I feel at ease to have a sitter that is close and cares for a GSD who is anxious at baseline. Thanks you!”
“Jessica was wonderful with our springer spaniel pup. She took her for walks every day, made sure she had plenty of play time, and was well loved during our vacation. She sent updates with pictures every morning and night!! I would highly recommend Jessica.”
