“Danielle and her husband were absolutely amazing while watching our little guy (Jaxson) for a quick getaway this week. We were given constant updates/pictures, and he clearly made himself right at home and was as comfortable as can be. Communication was prompt from the beginning and we were truly at ease while we were away that he was receiving more than adequate care. Jax became quick friends with their pets, and was moping around when we got home because he clearly misses them! Could not recommend enough!”
“Ashley was extremely accommodating and understanding with our dog Oliver during our family trip out of town. She was flexible with her time and made herself available for our erratic schedule. Oliver was well taken care of and I would definitely use Ashley again and recommend for future dog boarding.”
“Carolina and Angel were great to deal with and welcomed Bella into their family for the weekend. Quick responses and provide ample updates during the stay. Highly recommended. Thanks again!”
“Great first experience! Thanks Wendy for being so responsive. Dog friendly home and yard. This was one of the first experiences our rescue dog had with another dog, and all went well. We will definitely book again!”
“Mark was our first experience with a pet sitter and we approved the experience. He and his family watched our dog Luke during 16 days, giving us updates about his behavior upon request and sent us pictures. It really felt like our dog was embraced by Mark and his family. We will use his services again and we will highly recommend Mark to our friends.”
“Was nervous at first to leave him overnight with someone for an entire week but as Yajaira reassured, my boy was in good hands. Everything went smoothly & loved that she kept me updated with photos that showed he was enjoying his vacation as well. Defiantly would recommend & will sure be booking again when needed!”
“Araceli and Uciel did a fantastic job of watching my dog for a week. They took such wonderful care of him and sent pics\videos with updates every day. It was clear he had a grand time playing with their two dogs and being spoiled rotten. I will definitely be using them again when I go out of town.”
“I had a great experience with Mecheal. I left my 10-month-old Aussie with her for a week, and I was nervous about leaving him with someone new. She took excellent care of my dog. She sent me pictures and updates every day, which really helped ease my worries. It was clear that my pup was happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend her as a dog sitter. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby! Will definitely use her again”
“Enrique H. was... no is absolutely amazing! He was very kind to our puppy. We were very nervous leaving our lil one for the first time, but his experience, set up of his house, and communication skills made it easy for us to trust he would take good care of our puppy. If you are looking for someone to take care of your high energy puppy, Enrique H. is the one!”
“Noel and his family were absolutely incredible! With two senior dogs, one of them having recent health challenges, we had a few big asks with medication administration and attentiveness. Noel, his wife, and his son took great care of our pups and updated us thoroughly throughout the weekend to give us peace of mind. We’re so grateful!!”
“I can't say enough great things about our experiences with Jennifer. I've left my dog Peachy with her 3 times now, this last time being over a week. I got so many picture and video updates throughout and I could see how comfortable and happy my Peachy was. Jennifer and her daughter are so wonderful with her and I am very grateful to have found them. The peace of mind I have now while I'm away that my dog is well cared for is worth so much. Also, Jennifer was highly communicative and very flexible when my schedule needed to change last minute. I won't leave Peachy with anyone else now!!”
“Cassandra & Nolan took excellent care of my Rosie girl while I was on a day trip to NYC. Frequent walks, cuddles, playtime, and plenty of photo updates. She enjoyed taking part in their holiday celebration! I will definitely book them again next time I'm in CT.”
“As a pet mama it was such an amazing experience for our sweet Batman! Karen was so diligent and professional with consistent and regular updates and fun photos and video updates. I know we will definitely use her again- Batman will be happy to go back anytime!”
About: I’ve rescued dogs since I was young, grew up with dogs my entire life and have a dog of my own now. I’m always willing to make a new friend since I enjoy their company and taking them out or just spending time with them indoors. Always happy to take care of yours!! I’m currently home during the summer and work from home so I can be pretty flexible with taking the dogs out to the park or for a walk since I can give them the attention they need. I live in an condo so I don’t a yard but there’s a trail right behind the condos where I can take the dogs out for walk and i can also offer taking the dog(s) to the dog park if the owner allows me to. They will be leashed on the walks and i will follow certain restrictions and requirements depending on the dog and what their owner tells me.
“Will was wonderful. He was extremely flexible with meet and greet, drop off, and pick up times. He was helpful at drop off with handling of dogs and supplies. He provided pictures of stay too. All around pleasant and professional.”
“We had a great experience with Kate! Our dog, Sampson, stayed in her home and was very well cared for. Communication was easy and consistent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. Sampson is pretty easygoing, but it was clear he was treated with attention and kindness. We will definitely book with them again.”
“Fiona was fantastic! Meet and greet first and got comfortable with the setup. She sent pics and updates as requested and I will be booking with her again soon. I could tell my dog Cal was very comfortable there both during and after.”

“Susan was great with my 2 cats. She sent pictures of them every day and spent time visiting and playing with them. She also let me know when there were a couple of other issues at my house and she handled them for me. I would highly recommend her as she is really good with pets. I would definitely book with her again.”

“We needed a new caretaker for our cat and we are lucky to have found Alex. She is a caring person, she was authentically interested in understanding our cat’s preferences and habits. She took great care of our cat while we were away. I’d highly recommend Alex”
About: I grew up with cats and adopted my own cat at 17, who was part of my family for 15 years. Caring for her taught me how important patience, attentiveness, routine, and trust are when it comes to cats and their individual personalities. I understand that every cat has different comfort levels and needs, and I always prioritize making them feel safe, calm, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits that include feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, affection (if your cat enjoys it!), and keeping routines as consistent as possible. I genuinely love cats and miss having one in my daily life, so I truly enjoy spending quality time with them and paying attention to their cues, behaviors, and overall well-being.
“Samantha did drop-in visits with our cats. Excellent communication, reliable, kept their food area and litter box cleaned, and took excellent care of them. Would definitely hire her again!!”

“Maria did exceptional with my baby Snoopy! I was really scared since he suffers from extreme anxiety (He’s a rescue dog). He did great with Maria. She kept me informed and would send me pictures. She was very caring, gentle and comforting. Snoopy did very well with transition. I will definitely rebook with Maria.”
“Hailey was great. Coming from out-of-town to attend a family gathering, we could not meet her in advance, but our little maltipoo seemed comfortable with her right away and came out smiling after an afternoon with her and her dogs in her quiet, friendly neighborhood.”
About: I have been dog and cat sitting for 4 years. I have 2 cats and a dog and I frequently dog sit for my neighbors! I am great with all ages of pets! I am currently a freshman in college and only have classes in the mornings. My afternoons are free during the week, along with a completely free weekend schedule! I have 4 cats of my own along with a dog and I love to play with them. I also love going outside with dogs and keeping them active! I have enjoyed pet sitting for as long as I can remember.
“Though new to Rover, Maritza was very good with our 15 yo Havanese Cisco for doggy daycare. There were two larger and younger dogs present as well. She’s working from home now, so she can take the dogs on frequent walks. She will soon have a large fenced in yard…even better! I will definitely use Maritza again, for overnights too.”
“My dog bear loves going over to Alaina and Jake’s, and they love having him over! They’ve been able to work with my schedule, and take last minute bookings as well. I love that they send me pics of bear throughout the day and keep me updated. I know bears in good hands and safe at their house.”

“Kelly is such an awesome dog sitter. She is so nice and shows love to all of her pawed clients. She sends updates and great pics everyday. Jax gets so excited when we pull up to her house because of how much he loves her. I know Jax is well taken care of. We are so thankful that we found her! And you will be too. :)”
About: I’ve had multiple pets since I was young and always had a great love for all animals. I have had my dog since I was 6 years old and been taking care of her since then. Neighbors and family members have always trusted me taking care of their cats, dogs, bunnies, and birds and I love meeting and forming a connection with them all! I also have experience with senior and special needs as my dog had some behavioral issues in the last few years of her life and she has taught me a lot about having compassion for everyone. 🩷 My school year is over so I am currently home for the summer and will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I also am available on breaks as well and would love to walk your dog during those times! I am majoring in animal studies with a minor in environmental studies in college and have a very strong love and passion for all animals. I have a big fenced yard for your dog to run around and play in! My both love all types of pets and are super welcoming.
“Ziggy had a great time spending the day with Jaylese for doggy daycare! They went on a nice walk and Ziggy came back happy and sleepy. She accepted my request last minute and was a breeze to work with - highly reccomend!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets, dogs of all sizes, cats. I’ve given medicine orally, and insulin shots. I have sat for pets for several years for family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. I love spending time with all animals between long walks, hiking, and just hanging out on the couch. I work full time but I telework several times per week. Weekends completely available. When I’m at the office my partner is home 24/7 so the pets will never be alone! I have a lead going from the back deck to the shed (across my whole yard) I have two very friendly dogs and cats. I can crate if needed & there is space available if your dog needs to decompress alone without other animals. I slowly introduce animals to make sure everyone coexists well. All dogs are fed separately to avoid any food aggression. We have an over sized, fully gated and covered back deck that the dogs can also hangout on with us safely.
About: I started my career as an animal rescuer and dog trainer, I am very personable when it comes to taking care of animals. I have taken care of range of animals, from newborns to full grown, from past 15 years and I believe that there’s nothing more rewarding than their love. I also prepare home-made organic food and treats for dogs and cats which are loved by them and appreciated by their parents. I have an expertise with animal behavior and nutrition as well. I like to give dogs a pee break every 3-4 hours. Walking, feeding, exercise and lot of cuddles will be given all throughout the day. At our house, all the dogs are treated as if they are my own babies. Treats are given as permitted by parents. I have spare new blankets and toys for all dogs, unless you bring/prefer your own. Please feel free to ask for anything that’s not mentioned. (shower and grooming can be provided at extra cost) When boarding dogs at my home they will have space to roam around in the house (wooden floor) and I can take them for long/short walks as needed/recommended. I always walk dogs on leash and the duration of walk will be set by the pet parents. I love spoiling my fur guests with toys (with permission). When boarding your pet overnight, I encourage sending them with a blanket with your scent as it makes the separation easy on your fur babies. The environment in my house is nothing but love and we are soft spoken people so there’s no loud noise in the house ever. The surrounding area is very safe and very nature oriented. We have sidewalks which are well maintained year round. And since it’s a gated community, you can feel the ease with your pet security. I have taken care of over five dozen dogs and every dog loved our place. Most even feel sad when they leave.
“Macho was so well taken care of at Michelle's. She and her family are wonderful. Their dog Charlie is an absolute sweetheart! They went out of their way to make my little guy comfortable during his stay. They also has a nice big fenced in back yard which was a big hit. I would definitely book with her again.”

“Kristen was great with our 3 month old puppy. She was flexible, sent us plenty of pictures, and responded quickly. It was a serene getaway for him and he looked very comfortable in her home. She took him on walks and he walked really well with her. On the second day drop off Kameron was wagging his tail as we walked inside and went straight for a prized green toy he loved. The pictures she sent were beautiful and she was very easy to talk to. I highly recommend her would absolutely use her again.”
About: Hi paw friends 🐾 I am somewhat new to Rover but I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have always helped my family and friends care for their animals and I always enjoyed doing it. My husband and I got married four years ago and our little girl is three. It's so amazing to see her interact with the dogs because she gets more comfortable and happier each time. My husband and daughter are my best pet helpers when I am not around. Our family loves dogs and we will eventually get a dog when the time is right, but I love Rover because it’s give me the opportunity to still bond with pups. I truly love being around animals. Our families sometimes come to stay with us with their dogs and I get a crazy burst of happiness every time. Life is just better with a dog around and I would love to care and help with your pups! :) I know it can be tough trusting your animals in others hands but rest assured that your pet will be in great hands with me & I will send plenty of updates and pictures 📸🐾 I currently work part time (every weekend). So I am free to take care of your pups during the week and still on weekends when I’m home. My amazing husband and daughter are my best pet helpers when I am not around. I still offer some services on the weekends. I will care for the pet how the owner(s) want me to care for them. They will always bed fed, hydrated, clean, warm, and the happiest they can be in our home. Our home isn't that big so someone is always around. I am not much of an out-going person, I do have a good amount of friends but they all come to my house since I am the mama of the group :)
About: I’ve always treated dogs like part of the family, not just pets. When your dog stays with me, they’ll be in a home environment where they get real attention, affection, and care…not just supervision. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your dog is comfortable, loved, and well cared for. They have a huge back yard to enjoy running around with their tongues hanging to the ground lol! We usually bathe them outside before heading in on hot summer days. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m home throughout the day. This allows me to give consistent attention, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, and plenty of supervision to make sure your dog is comfortable and well cared for at all times I currently have three small, well-socialized dogs who are friendly and enjoy meeting new dogs. Any dog in my care becomes part of our routine and is treated like family. Our day starts around 6 AM with the first potty break, followed by consistent outdoor time every 3–4 hours. I have a backyard, so the dogs get plenty of supervised outdoor play, along with daily walks for exercise and stimulation. I keep a structured but relaxed environment. My dogs are on a routine that includes feeding schedules, treats, and basic obedience reinforcement like sit, stay, and lay down. This helps create a calm, balanced atmosphere where all dogs can feel comfortable and settle in easily. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and well-managed home where your dog feels like they belong

“Susan was so great with my very old dog. She was patient with him and even carried him up the steps when necessary. Susan always arrived when scheduled. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Julie has been amazing with my dog, Cooper. She’s been doing his mid-day walks and has been incredibly reliable and flexible, which I’ve really appreciated. She’s been easy to communicate with and very accommodating with my schedule. Honestly, I’d keep working with her without hesitation if I weren’t moving. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to take care of their dog.”
“I just moved Southington. I picked Michael to walk my dog Bella. He has been excellent with taking care of her and making sure everything is done. His customer service is impeccable, he is reliable and he’s super friendly. I’m very comfortable with knowing that he’s taking care of my dog while I’m at work because she’s my favorite thing in the world. I highly recommend him. Thank you Michael!”
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 3 years old and grew up with both dogs and cats in the home. I currently have a rescue dog that I’ve had for 10 years, and helping him work through separation anxiety, shyness, and reactivity has taught me so much about patience, consistency, body language, and building trust with animals. Through working with a professional dog behaviorist, I’ve also learned techniques for building confidence, reinforcing commands, improving leash behavior, and helping dogs feel more comfortable and engaged. While I’m not a trainer, I’m happy to consistently reinforce routines, commands, enrichment activities, and calm leash practices that owners already use with their pets. I’m very attentive to pets’ cues, comfort levels, and safety, and I understand that every animal has a different personality and needs a different approach. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets over the years because I genuinely care about making animals feel safe, comfortable, loved, and understood. I also enjoy keeping dogs mentally and physically engaged through walks, playtime, sniff mats, enrichment activities, and practicing basic commands when appropriate. My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to provide pets with lots of attention, exercise, potty breaks, enrichment, and companionship throughout the day. I’m primarily focused on walks, drop-ins, daycare, and daytime pet care, and I truly enjoy helping pets feel comfortable, engaged, and safe while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has different energy levels and needs, and I’m happy to accommodate routines involving walks, playtime, sniff mats, feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, and basic commands when appropriate. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I pay very close attention to body language, stress cues, energy levels, and overall behavior to help pets feel safe and comfortable in my care. I currently have two potty-trained dogs in the home who are friendly with other dogs. Pets receive lots of supervision, affection, exercise, and engagement throughout the day. I also understand the importance of slow introductions, maintaining routines, and creating a calm environment, especially for shy or anxious pets

We know that our pup looks forward to her visit and walks with Katelyn everyday, and we feel so fortunate for her help.”
About: As a dedicated pet sitter, my experience goes beyond the basics- I specialize in fostering dogs of all ages and needs which has equipped me with a unique skill set that sets me apart from other sitters. My passion for animals is endless. I grew up with dogs and I've had several of my own. I have a passion for helping dogs with health impairments, providing them with gentle, attentive care they require. From administering medications to managing special diets, I ensure every furry friend feels comfortable and loved. With younger high-energy pups, I focus on positive reinforcement helping them develop good habits while channeling their energy into fun activities. My playful approach keeps them engaged. For older dogs, I provide a common soothing environment. I understand their specific needs, from mobility challenges to dietary restrictions, and I'm skilled at adapting our activities to ensure they enjoy their time without strain. Having fostered numerous dogs, I'm adept at assessing individual personalities. Whether your pet needs a playmate, a gentle caretaker, I am here to provide a nurturing and enriching experience that caters to their unique needs. Trust that your pet will be in the best of hands! I am a full-time teacher, so my availability is mostly on the weekends or during our long breaks such as Thanksgiving break, Christmas break, April vacation, and long weekends. I have evenings free to let out animals or walk them as well. I live in a 900 square foot apartment that has an open floor plan. My dog is happy here and has free roam of the place. She loves a cuddle companion, but I am also equipped to create your dog if needed.

I got so many picture and video updates throughout and I could see how comfortable and happy my Peachy was. Jennifer and her daughter are so wonderful with her and I am very grateful to have found them. The peace of mind I have now while I'm away that my dog is well cared for is worth so much. Also, Jennifer was highly communicative and very flexible when my schedule needed to change last minute. I won't leave Peachy with anyone else now!!”
“Cassandra & Nolan took excellent care of my Rosie girl while I was on a day trip to NYC. Frequent walks, cuddles, playtime, and plenty of photo updates. She enjoyed taking part in their holiday celebration! I will definitely book them again next time I'm in CT.”
“As a pet mama it was such an amazing experience for our sweet Batman! Karen was so diligent and professional with consistent and regular updates and fun photos and video updates. I know we will definitely use her again- Batman will be happy to go back anytime!”
“Will was wonderful. He was extremely flexible with meet and greet, drop off, and pick up times. He was helpful at drop off with handling of dogs and supplies. He provided pictures of stay too. All around pleasant and professional.”
“We had a great experience with Kate! Our dog, Sampson, stayed in her home and was very well cared for. Communication was easy and consistent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. Sampson is pretty easygoing, but it was clear he was treated with attention and kindness. We will definitely book with them again.”
“Fiona was fantastic! Meet and greet first and got comfortable with the setup. She sent pics and updates as requested and I will be booking with her again soon. I could tell my dog Cal was very comfortable there both during and after.”
“Kathryn and Jeremy took excellent care of our dog Max while we were away for a week. From our first meeting with them, it was clear that they had experience taking care of dogs and were very understanding and knowledgable about our dogs unique care needs. We felt so comfortable leaving Max with them and when we picked him up it was clear he LOVED his time there and can't wait to see them again! Thank you Kathryn and Jeremy for taking such great care of Max!”
“Our pup came home a happy boy. We needed last minute boarding and Samantha was more than accommodating. Constant updates were provided throughout the stay. Would gladly book again in the future.”
“Kristen took great care of my lab/shepard mix! I could tell my dog was happy, well loved, and cared for in my absence. I really loved the photo updates too. I highly recommend Kristen!”
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Sherry to take care of my Stella, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! From the moment I met Sherry, it was evident that she had a genuine love for dogs and a deep understanding of their needs. Sherry went above and beyond to ensure that Stella felt comfortable and at ease during her overnight/next-day stay. Sherry kept me updated with photos and videos, which made me feel connected and reassured that Stella was in great hands. Stella is not an easy pup to win over, but somehow Sherry did just this! I cannot recommend Sherry enough to anyone in need of a dog sitter. She is not just a caretaker but a true dog lover who treats your furry family member(s) as if they were her own. If you're looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy to take care of your beloved pet, look no further than Sherry! She exceeded my expectations in every way, and I will definitely be calling on her again in the future. Thank you again Sherry for providing my Stella with a home away from home!”
“This was our first time using a Rover/boarding our 9-year-old rescue dog and Brittany did such a good job at giving her space the space she needed, making her comfortable, and sending us plenty of updates. Would absolutely recommend her and plan on booking with her again!”
“Anjali was wonderful! She was a great communicator and provided many updates. We could tell Autumn had the best time and that she was made to feel like she was apart of the family. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
