“So relieved to have found someone we can trust with our baby Milo. Milo can be very anxious, and hasn't had much socialization, but Anthony reassured us that he could be kept separate from other dogs if that's what he needed. He didn't eat much at first, but then Anthony mixed some boiled chicken in with his food. Really appreciate the effort and the photos, and will be happy to book with him again in a couple of weeks.”
“Cassandra did an amazing job caring for our 4 year old English bulldog for 8 days. Our bulldog is quite stubborn with several medical conditions and she administered all medications and went above and beyond so we can travel without him for the first time in 4 years. Cassandra sent us daily updates and was very quick to respond to us and helped put our minds at ease while away.”
“From the very first moment we met Nadjeska, we knew she was the perfect person to care for our beloved dog, Forest. Leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, but Nadjeska immediately put us at ease with her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for dogs. Forest spent 11 wonderful days with Nadjeska and her family, and the level of care and affection he received was truly exceptional—far beyond what we could have hoped for anywhere else. Nadjeska treated Forest as if he were her own, ensuring he felt safe, loved, and happy every single day. What impressed us most was her commitment to keeping us connected. We received regular updates and daily photos that captured Forest’s joyful moments and his amazing interactions with her family and dogs. These thoughtful touches gave us complete peace of mind and showed just how dedicated Nadjeska is to her work. If you’re looking for someone who is not only highly qualified but also deeply passionate about caring for dogs, Nadjeska is the one. We recommend her with the highest confidence and gratitude—she is simply outstanding. Sincerely, David and Ana”
“This was Luna's first time being away from us and I was so afraid with how she might be with someone new and away from her family. To my surprise she did fantastic with Lauren and had alot of fun! I received many pictures of Luna throughout her time away and little updates. She socialized with other pups, smelled amazing since she was bathed before she came home, and I can tell she was comfortable because when I got there she wiggled her little rump and was so excited to see me but she also would go back to Lauren to say goodbye. It was the sweetest thing. Thank you again, Luna will definitely be back!”
“This is only the second time I have boarded my dog, and since I’m usually home all day with her, I wanted to make sure I left her with someone who would be home all the time and able to monitor her the way I do. Mariana went above and beyond my expectations! I not only got one or 2 photos a day, but I got updates on what she was doing, and even several videos of her being cute. I cannot say enough good things about the time and attention Mariana gave my dog and me! I will absolutely board with Mariana again the next time I go out of town!”
“Jeanette was awesome! She watched my 5 month old puppy on a last minute booking for a holiday weekend. She even made time to do a quick meet to make sure her dog and mine got along. She is very quick to respond, checked in a couple times a day. My dog was constantly on walks or on some adventure with her she shared plenty of photos. I knew he was in good hands and was very comfortable leaving him with her. I recommend booking with her for walks, overnights, even a few hours during the day she is a very sweet woman who truly loves dogs.”
“Mikayla and Justin took great care of Rigatoni— were easy to communicate with, provided check-ins, and genuinely cared about her well-being. So grateful!”
“Stephanie did an amazing job with my Otter while I was gone on my trip! She took him to a dog party and walked/hiked with him every day. I received tons of updates and pictures. If you are leaving town, leave your pup with Stephanie, she is awe-inspiring.”
About: I have a close connection with a well-respected, professional dog trainer. I can usually get helpful tips and techniques on short notice, which I have used to successfully train puppies on basic commands (sit, stay, etc). I have 1 cat (2yrs old) who is neutered, indoor, and very shy. I work from home so I spend a lot of time caring for my pet which includes 3 mealtimes, plus play/enrichment time, and relaxing downtime each day. For dog care, I have a small fenced in yard and live in a nice area, so dog walks and outdoor potty breaks are very convenient at most times of day.
“Very smooth first overnight visit. Monique provided an overview of what to expect and was able to answer all of our questions. Our pup warmed up to Monique quickly and was happy to go with her. Great communication and photos throughout her short stay which was appreciated. We'll be working with Monique again soon!”
“Karina & Teresa were able to watch my baby in a short notice. I am so grateful to them. They were so loving and caring towards Bennett. They ensured he had a home away from home and kept me updated.”
“Luci & her husband did a great job taking care of our dog recently for a couple of days. They have a fenced backyard - super for our dog to safely run & play with her dogs. When I returned to pick her up, the hosts provided me with a sweet thank you/remember them before leaving - a wonderul bag with colorful graphics of dogs, as well as a poop bag clipped to our dog's leash. They were lovely.”
“Tara was great with my pup over the 4th of July weekend. She was so accommodating with my pup’s fear of loud noises and did her best to keep her calm. She sent lots of photos and updates which I appreciated! She was awesome!”
“Brianna is INCREDIBLY capable, and our dogs love her. One of our dogs is very elderly and on medication, and she is clearly well taken care of when she stays with Brianna. Our other dog is a high-need English Springer Spaniel that I honestly can’t imagine anyone other than Brianna managing his care. He has medical issues and anxiety, and Brianna has been able to manage both in a way that can only be described as masterful.”
“Raeven and her partner took great care of my 2 Tibetan spaniel girls for 9 days. One of them was a 6 months old puppy. Both came home relaxed and their normal self and not stressed. I would definately use Raeven again to board my babies.”
About: I've always had a deep love for animals, I've cared for dogs of all breeds and ages, giving them attention and afection, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable and happy! I work from home part-time, so this easily allows me to look after and keep an eye on your pets, as well as attend to all their needs. In my home🐾 i have a very friendly Frenchie and he would love to having a friend to play, i provide a warm and safe environment where your dog can feel happy! I stick to their usual routine, feeding times, walks, playtime and rest. Pets have acces to cozzy sleeping spots, and supervised outdoor time.

“Kacie was super! From the drop-by visit to meet my cat and learn routine through the check-in photos after, she was so professional and caring. And though I didn’t expect my shy cat to even come out from under the bed, she visited with Kacie from the first day on. A kind gentle vibe that made my cat feel comfortable.”
About: Expert kitty pets! Experienced with medications, litter box issues (floor cleaning), and anxious cats. I provide precise feeding care(supplements, medications), calm presence, and detailed updates. Your cat’s comfort and routine are my priority
“I feel so lucky to have found Courtney to watch my two cats when I did, and to continue working with her. She first began to watch the boys when I had to take an overseas trip, and after our first meeting, the cats trusted her and I personally felt confident and comfortable enough to ask her to take care of them for me while I was in another country. She is a wonderful, kind, communicative, and responsible sitter who immediately made me feel at ease when we first met. I cannot recommend her enough!”
“Anne-Marie is AMAZING! While we were away for a week, Anne-Marie dropped in every day to check in our cat Ruby. She kept me apprised each day and sent lovely photos and videos. She followed all our instructions to a tee and was absolutely sweet towards Ruby. When we go away again, we are most definitely booking with Anne-Marie!”
About: I have been using Rover on and off for years and have met so many amazing dogs and their owners. I am active and love to be outside. I grew up with pets and am very compassionate towards all animals, especially dogs and cats. I have taken care of neighbors' dogs and homes while growing up. I live in North Branford with my fiancé, our cat Charlie and our dog Roz. Charlie came from a shelter and loves to be around other animals. Sometimes she can act like a dog herself. Roz was adopted from Save-A-Lab and is the sweetest girl. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have! I look forward to meeting your pet! I’m a personal trainer so I am typically available between 11 am and 4 pm. With so much free time on my hands and my love for being active, I decided I’d walk dogs part-time! If a dog is outside in their fenced yard, I’ll never take my eyes off of them. Ya never know if they’ve been plotting their escape! 😏 I always keep a dog on a leash. I prefer a non-retractable leash.
“Melanie was wonderful with our cat! Our cat automatically went right up to her, which is always a great sign. She followed all of our instructions carefully, was very accommodating, and communicated well throughout the process. Her rates were also very reasonable, and she was kind, reliable, and easy to work with. We felt comfortable knowing our cat was in good hands and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”
About: I have extensive experience caring for cats of all personalities and medical needs, including shy, anxious, senior, and special-needs cats. My own two cats have multiple chronic health conditions, giving me firsthand experience with daily medications, close monitoring, behavior changes, and the importance of consistent, compassionate care. Through my veterinary background, I am comfortable recognizing signs of illness early and helping cats feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their own environment. I am also a Fear Free Certified professional.
“Kelli was a great cat-sitter for our three cats. She was dedicated and made sure to spend time with all of them. One of our cats needs medication twice a day and she was able to administer it to her easily. She also played with our two younger cats, who love attention. When we came home, they appeared well taken care of. Would definitely book her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbor’s cat many times, and have been a long term foster for large kitten litters with my local shelter while at college working on socializing, litter box training, and weight gain. I have a cat with FVR and am comfortable giving medication orally as well as eyedrops.
“Lauren is awesome. She not only checked in with me often she genuinely cared about my pets experience and possible home sickness. I can't appreciate enough Lauren for making me feel like my pet was safe and loved when I travelled. I highly recommend her!”
About: It's important to know that someone cares about your pet when hiring them, i'd love the opportunity to take care of your furry family member! I've always had pets in the house since I was a kid and so it feels like second nature to take care of pets. I grew up with dogs, and now have a cat of my own and we are obsessed with our little Roo. It makes me feel so much better when I know he is in good hands when we are away, and so I would like to be that for you and your pet! I currently work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule during the week! I can create my own schedule that will work for the both of us. I first want to make sure I know all of the ins and outs of what my clients needs are for their pet. They are the ones who know the most about their animal and once I know what they need, I am very proactive and communicative about making sure their pet is safe and cared for. Open communication is key!
“If I can give Emily more than 5 stars I would! She was communicative, accommodating, responsive, caring and my kitties loved her. She has gained a new repeat customer :)”
About: What sets me apart is my professional experience caring for cats and my genuine love for animals. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician assistant with cats, dogs, and horses, giving me experience understanding animal behavior, caring for senior pets, and helping shy or anxious cats feel safe and comfortable. I am also currently studying for my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree, so your pet’s health, safety, and wellbeing are always my top priorities. I provide patient, reliable, loving care and treat every pet like family while you’re away.

“This was my first time using Rover.com. I had picked up my German shepherd, Evie, from a shelter in North Carolina last November. Based on her recorded condition when brought in as a stray 5 weeks before she had been through a rough period. She has fully recovered now and is in good health. My wife and I wanted to find someone to board her with where she would be happy when we're away. We identified a few possibilities at the Rover website and following a positive meet and greet with Nadjeska last week, had Evie spend the day with her yesterday. It went very well. Nadjeska sent us several texts with photos during the day updating us on Evie's stay. We were looking for a home where Evie could spend time with and play with other dogs and Evie made a new friend, Sparkles, Najeska's little dog. Nadjeska has a fenced yard which provides a safe place for them to run around in the fresh air. Evie seemed to enjoy the day, Nadjeska obviously loves dogs, and we will be repeat clients in the near future.”
“My fur baby requires a great deal of attention due to some health challenges. This makes me very careful about who cares for him. I am so Blessed to have Liza taking care of my lil guy. I would highly recommend her to people that need puppy ? care”
“Kaela was wonderful. Prompt and clear communications, accommodated a last minute request, friendly and knowledgeable about dogs, updates, and pictures throughout the stay, went above and beyond, and even fed Luna when I was running late.”

About: I am a veterinary nurse as well as a certified dog trainer. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and will treat your pup as one of my own! I work from home. I do virtual dog training sessions and only work one day out of the house, so very easy for me to take care of your pup in between sessions. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of toys as well as going for daily walks in our very safe neighborhood. I also have two very friendly medium size pups who love to play.
“OMG THE BEST! Mariana took such great care of Galileo. And she took care of ME as well. I felt so safe leaving the little man with her. There were constant updates and photos and so much love. I wish I lived closer so I could use her every day!!!”
“Merlin had a BLAST with Raeven and team. We received a bunch of photos and a video that captured his personality and illustrated his enjoyment. 10/10 - your pup will enjoy a day with their squad.”
“Andrea was just wonderful. It was my first time leaving them with a sitter. I knew I could trust her with my babies right off the bat. She’s sweet and caring and communicated with me the whole time because I was anxious being away from them. It’s easy to see that she is a dog person to the core. Highly recommend!”
“Garrett was marvelous. Garrett is a very enthusiastic dog-lover, and our micro-Bernedoodle, Marx, was walk, run, play, and just hang out with him and his adorable little Archie. Marx was quite tuckered out by the experience ! I recommend Garrett enthusiastically.”
“Sarah and Steve took such great care of our puppy! We are so happy that she was in such good hands while we were at work. Sarah is super friendly and nice to work with. She sent updates, photos, and videos, which put us at ease throughout the day. Our pup was excited to see Sarah, and came home very tired at the end of the day. We would highly recommend Sarah and Steve!”

“Truc watched our Russell terrier Ozzie for the day when we were in the area on vacation. Ozzie left happy and tired, and had a great time with her lab Calvin. Truc was very responsive and easy to communicate with, took special care to ensure Ozzie adjusted well, and even took him on a special adventure in town. Would highly recommend. Thank you Truc!”
“Cheyanne is AMAZING! She was punctual and flexible with me when my plans changed. She kept me updated on Phoebe throughout the visit. Phoebe and her pups got along so well! I am totally going to be rebooking with her in the future. It was a great experience all around. Thanks, Cheyanne!”
“Brianna took great care of Peanut. She was responsive in communication and kept me updated with photos of Peanut. I was a bit late in sending Peanut and early in picking up Peanut, but Brianna accommodated my schedule. Peanut seems to have made friends with Brianna's dog and is very happy when being picked up. Peanut also seems to have had a comfortable time on Brianna's bed.”
“She is the best!!! Very calm and the best in to communicate with us. Many and many pictures. You will feel your dog safe in her hands. She is paying attention of all details.”
“My colleague recommended Howard to me as “the dog whisperer” and I can’t agree more! I was a little nervous to drop my pup off for daycare less than a week after rescuing her, as she is quite wary of strangers. She jumped right into Howard’s arms and apparently spent the rest of the day happy as can be cuddled on his lap. She came home happy, tired, and ready for dinner & bed! Howard also does a wonderful job of sending updates and photos throughout the day. The first day she went to Howard’s, my pup hadn’t pooped in 2 days and it was something I was worried about. He sent me a text as soon as she went so that I would have peace of mind. She has since been back to Howard’s a few times a week and I can not recommend him more!”

About: I am an exceptional dog trainer which is another service that I provide. I don't mind working with troubled or hard cases. Raised dogs half my life. Used to be deeply involved with different rescue operations and local vets to do what I can for these pups. Also have experience with dog boarding at corporate facilities however I run everything right out of my home. So it's more like visiting your pups uncle Marco rather than a lil puppy prison. My other day job is taking care of my handicapped mother so no reason that I can't take care if some furry balls of move too while I'm at it! I'm home often which is where I board and watch the puppers. So we have a fenced in back yard and a large house. My mother does smoke but only upstairs and in her room. Bad mother! However its relatively isolated and isnt noticeable from downstairs. We have a 5 year old labrador retriever and small house cat to keep any visitors entertained! They are both very playful, gentle and non aggressive

From the very beginning, she developed a wonderful connection with our dog, and it was clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she works with. Brittany is attentive, trustworthy, and communicates well, which gave us complete peace of mind knowing our dog was in great hands. Our dog is always excited to see her and comes back happy and well cared for after every walk. We truly appreciate Brittany’s dedication, kindness, and dependability. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible dog walker. She has exceeded our expectations, and we are grateful to have found her! 🐾❤️”

Generally, I am free: Sat/Sun - Anytime M-F - Extremely early morning or after 3:30pm I will always provide fresh water when I come in and before I leave. If the pet makes a mess I will immediately dispose of it, however if any part of the mess was assumed to be ingested I will let the owner know as soon as possible. Should the pet use the bathroom in the house I will clean and sanitize the area and dispose of the waste outside. The pet will have my full attention and treated with respect during my time with it.

It’s important to keep a routine with animals, & will do everything I can to maintain balance.
“Such a great effort with my dog who was presenting as problematic on the day of the walk. Isabella tried over and over again and then found some wonderful solution. I really appreciated her smarts and effort.”

“So relieved to have found someone we can trust with our baby Milo. Milo can be very anxious, and hasn't had much socialization, but Anthony reassured us that he could be kept separate from other dogs if that's what he needed. He didn't eat much at first, but then Anthony mixed some boiled chicken in with his food. Really appreciate the effort and the photos, and will be happy to book with him again in a couple of weeks.”
“Cassandra did an amazing job caring for our 4 year old English bulldog for 8 days. Our bulldog is quite stubborn with several medical conditions and she administered all medications and went above and beyond so we can travel without him for the first time in 4 years. Cassandra sent us daily updates and was very quick to respond to us and helped put our minds at ease while away.”
“From the very first moment we met Nadjeska, we knew she was the perfect person to care for our beloved dog, Forest.

Forest spent 11 wonderful days with Nadjeska and her family, and the level of care and affection he received was truly exceptional—far beyond what we could have hoped for anywhere else. Nadjeska treated Forest as if he were her own, ensuring he felt safe, loved, and happy every single day. What impressed us most was her commitment to keeping us connected.

We recommend her with the highest confidence and gratitude—she is simply outstanding. Sincerely, David and Ana”
“This was Luna's first time being away from us and I was so afraid with how she might be with someone new and away from her family. To my surprise she did fantastic with Lauren and had alot of fun! I received many pictures of Luna throughout her time away and little updates. She socialized with other pups, smelled amazing since she was bathed before she came home, and I can tell she was comfortable because when I got there she wiggled her little rump and was so excited to see me but she also would go back to Lauren to say goodbye. It was the sweetest thing. Thank you again, Luna will definitely be back!”
“This is only the second time I have boarded my dog, and since I’m usually home all day with her, I wanted to make sure I left her with someone who would be home all the time and able to monitor her the way I do. Mariana went above and beyond my expectations! I not only got one or 2 photos a day, but I got updates on what she was doing, and even several videos of her being cute. I cannot say enough good things about the time and attention Mariana gave my dog and me! I will absolutely board with Mariana again the next time I go out of town!”
“Mikayla and Justin took great care of Rigatoni— were easy to communicate with, provided check-ins, and genuinely cared about her well-being. So grateful!”
About: I have a close connection with a well-respected, professional dog trainer. I can usually get helpful tips and techniques on short notice, which I have used to successfully train puppies on basic commands (sit, stay, etc). I have 1 cat (2yrs old) who is neutered, indoor, and very shy. I work from home so I spend a lot of time caring for my pet which includes 3 mealtimes, plus play/enrichment time, and relaxing downtime each day. For dog care, I have a small fenced in yard and live in a nice area, so dog walks and outdoor potty breaks are very convenient at most times of day.
“Very smooth first overnight visit. Monique provided an overview of what to expect and was able to answer all of our questions. Our pup warmed up to Monique quickly and was happy to go with her. Great communication and photos throughout her short stay which was appreciated. We'll be working with Monique again soon!”
“Karina & Teresa were able to watch my baby in a short notice. I am so grateful to them. They were so loving and caring towards Bennett. They ensured he had a home away from home and kept me updated.”
“Tara was great with my pup over the 4th of July weekend. She was so accommodating with my pup’s fear of loud noises and did her best to keep her calm. She sent lots of photos and updates which I appreciated! She was awesome!”
“Brianna is INCREDIBLY capable, and our dogs love her. One of our dogs is very elderly and on medication, and she is clearly well taken care of when she stays with Brianna. Our other dog is a high-need English Springer Spaniel that I honestly can’t imagine anyone other than Brianna managing his care. He has medical issues and anxiety, and Brianna has been able to manage both in a way that can only be described as masterful.”
“Raeven and her partner took great care of my 2 Tibetan spaniel girls for 9 days. One of them was a 6 months old puppy. Both came home relaxed and their normal self and not stressed. I would definately use Raeven again to board my babies.”
About: I've always had a deep love for animals, I've cared for dogs of all breeds and ages, giving them attention and afection, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable and happy! I work from home part-time, so this easily allows me to look after and keep an eye on your pets, as well as attend to all their needs. In my home🐾 i have a very friendly Frenchie and he would love to having a friend to play, i provide a warm and safe environment where your dog can feel happy! I stick to their usual routine, feeding times, walks, playtime and rest. Pets have acces to cozzy sleeping spots, and supervised outdoor time. I always can send you photos and updates so you can feel connected while you're away.
“Sai took such a good care of our little Moxie while we were gone for the weekend! Not only did she took her in with such a short notice from our end, she also made sure to play with her, feed her as we instructed, and overall provide Moxie a welcoming environment while we were gone. Sai updated us very frequently about how Moxie was doing and for any other questions she wanted to ask us. She even provided such cute pictures of our girl! I definitely recommend and trust Sai to take care of your kitties when needed. She is very kind, responsible, and very understanding :). Thank you, Sai!!”
“I trusted Bruce with my 3 babies while I got spine fusion surgery and he couldn't have done a better job. My girls now think of him as Uncle Bruce. I am a raving fan and highly recommend him. Thanks Uncle Bruce!”
“Christopher was very accommodating and flexible. He went out of his way to pick up Cameo at a more ideal timing prior to my departure for my work trip. He sent daily updates and pictures of Cameo playing and answered any questions that I had. Cameo got lots of play time and came home happy and exhausted :)”
