“This was my first experience with Rover, and I will admit I was nervous leaving my baby with a stranger. Thankfully, Karine’s glowing reviews were 100% true. Karine helped make me (and Laila) feel comfortable with the entire process. Karine provided frequent updates with pics throughout my pup’s stay. She showed Laila love and care as if she were her own. I highly recommend Karine to anyone and everyone!! I will be sure to rebook with her again. Thank you!! 💜”
“Chrissy will definitely stay with Melissa and Christian again. They sent lots of updates and pictures, we knew she was in good hands her entire stay. Thank you both!”
“Excellent. Will hire Ariel again. Pleasant and capable, she followed all care instructions to a tee for my 17 yr old dog. Responsive to all communications and kept me up to date on his well being, which I'm skitzo about because of his age.”
“Clinton and his son Lincoln were fantastic. Lots of pictures and videos along with walks and play sessions. Our pup might have had more fun on vacation than we did. Highly recommend!”
“Another great experience with Judy. Consistently wonderful care. I have complete peace of mind when we leave our senior pup with Judy. Great communication, reliable and caring.”
“Yenis exceeded expectations!! I was so nervous to leave my Charlie with someone he was unfamiliar with but he had the best time with Yenis and looked so happy and comfortable in every photo I received. We will 100% be using her for future stays 😊 Thank you, Yenis!”
“First time back on Rover in a while. Needed a find a new dog sitter for a long weekend away and found Nandita. Excellent sitter. We met before the stay to see if my lab would get along with hers. They did and it gave me confidence that it was going to be a great weekend for my dog Cooper. Lots of photos/videos and updates during our time away. Communication was great. Happy dog = happy dog Dad. Thanks Nandita! You rock.”
“Nicoly was the perfect sitter for my dog Bandit. She is loving, patient and attentive. I received daily picture/video updates from walks to cuddles. Bandit couldn’t have been in better hands.”
“Elvia is the best! Our dachshund loves her and so do we. Super reliable and takes such good care of our pup. We’ve used Elvia for both daytime and overnights and would highly recommend!”
“We usually have family who care for our two dogs while we travel. But when no one in our family is available, Anner is our go-to! He is sweet and loving with our two boys and takes great care of them. Thank you so much, Anner! We appreciate all you do to make our boys' stay with you a safe and happy one!”
“Our dog is always so happy to visit Richard! We had to extend our stay and Richard was very accommodating, not sure what we would have done without him!”
“Ashley was awesome with Spence! She watched him overnight and took such great care of him. The photo updates she sent were the best and totally put our minds at ease while we were away. It was so nice to see him looking relaxed and completely at home with her. Everything went so smoothly from drop-off to pick-up. We’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone!”
“We had such a wonderful experience boarding our miniature dachshund, Bailey! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. Jon took amazing care of her and we are really impressed with his knowledge and attention to detail. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bailey was safe, happy, and well cared for while we were away. We could tell he was treated like family. We’ll absolutely be booking with Jon again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced dog boarder!”
“Stephanie was awesome! Very responsive and kept me updated on Dozer throughout the day. She took him on several walks and sent great pictures. Will be booking her again!”
“Jolysa is so friendly and accommodating! I highly recommend. She kept in close contact with me and was flexible with scheduling. My dogs were well taken care of and will absolutely use her again!”
“I’m so glad we found Tina. Kallie who can be skeptical about unfamiliar situations seemed to take to her and her daughter right away. Since we rarely leave her for any length of time, we were so relieved that her stay worked out so well. Tina went beyond the call of duty - keeping us updated and sending pictures often, even cleaning Kallie’s eyes and ears. Thanks for everything Tina, and I’m sure anyone would be happy to have their dog stay with you Taffy and Mike Rodell”
“Tina and her husband took wonderful care of my Lucy. They were quick to respond/schedule a meet and greet and were very receptive of all of Lucy’s personality quirks. They were flexible with drop off/pick up, provided great updates, and were very communicative. Lucy will definitely be back!”

“Ursula did an excellent job caring for Klaus! I got lots of pictures. Klaus looks like he got plenty of playtime. The litter box was well cleaned when I came home. Thank you Ursula!”
“I had a wonderful experience with my dog sitter and would absolutely book with her again! She took excellent care of my two dogs and was attentive, kind, gentle, and professional throughout the entire process. She followed all instructions carefully, kept me updated, and treated my dogs as if they were her own. It gave me tremendous peace of mind knowing my pets were in such caring hands while I was away. When I returned home, my dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my girls! 🐾❤️”
“Margaret did an amazing job taking care of my cats. They took a liking to her quickly and she was very attentive to their needs. They received lots of love and play time, and I got some great photos in her updates. I’d be happy to have her for drop ins again!”
“Chris was great with my puppy! Very attentive to both my needs and my puppy’s needs during his visits. Great communication and photos to ease my nerves. I’m would highly recommend him for any of your pets needs!!”
“Stefanie is an all-star! My fur baby is extra ornery and finicky. Stefanie managed it all. She is a fantastic communicator and kept me in the loop about her every time she stopped in. You are in good hands with Stefanie!”
“Cassidy was amazing with our little Macho and very professional and lovely to work with! Thank you Cassidy for giving us the peace of mind in our vacation and for all the detailed updates while we were gone ❤️”
“Extremely impressed with Maria taking care of my cat. My cat is newly rescued and very scared of people. While I was away my cat found some places I didn't even know were possible to hide that were probably not very safe for a cat. Maria went out of her way to get my cat out, and prevent her from going back. By the end of the week my cat was even opening up a bit towards her.”
“Nicole is wonderful with my Atlas. She is always on time, communicative, and sends lots of pics. I was concerned that he might develop separation anxiety when I returned to work, but Nicole’s drop-ins keep him happy and engaged (the only separation anxiety is mine 😊). Her consistency and experience is helping him learn his manners (leash and potty etiquette) very well.”
“Daniela is very responsive and took great care of our two kittens. We got daily photos and she was communicative if I had questions about how things were going. She’s also very friendly and genuinely fond of the cats!”
“Annabel did a great job for my 2 cats while I was away for a week. She sent great pictures and even cleaned up when they got into a treat bag one day. Highly recommend!”
“We highly recommend Elvia for your cat/house sitting needs! She took care of our cat Dolly and was able to meet all of Dolly’s hands-on needs including a very detailed and intensive feeding protocol. Elvia was very communicative and followed all of our instructions beautifully, and Dolly even began warming up to her despite being a very timid and shy kitty who takes time to trust.”
“Aaron did a great job! My cat, Moo, can be shy but, mid-way through the catsitting, she was coming out for pets from him. The visits were always prompt and, as requested, a 1/2 long with accompanying pictures. Aaron is very professional and I 10/10 would hire him again.”
“Ashley was wonderful as a pet sitter! She was always timely with her check ins and kept me updated with pictures and other information on how my cat was doing. She did everything exactly the way the instructions I left said and was very respectful of the space. She was also very flexible. I would recommend her to anyone to take care of their pets!”
“Cinthia is absolutely incredible. She took great care of our cat Babs and stayed in constant communication when we were away for a few days. Can’t wait to book her again!”
About: What sets me apart is that I truly respect each cat’s personality and space. I let them come to me on their own terms and never force interaction. If they want space, I give it; if they want affection, I respond gently and calmly. I focus on low-stress, attentive care—observing quietly, stepping in only when needed, and making sure their essentials are always covered: feeding, clean environment, and playtime when they’re in the mood. My approach is patient, respectful, and cat-led.
“We had an absolutely amazing experience with Alison! She stepped in at the very last minute and took such wonderful care of our cats. There was even an unexpected fire alarm while we were away, and she handled it calmly and professionally - we felt so relieved knowing she was there. Her kindness, reliability, and genuine care gave us complete peace of mind. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets 💛”
“Jessica was so wonderful with our bunny Macho over the holidays! He even escaped before her first visit and she was able to lure him with blueberries safely back into his enclosure area while we were away. She is professional, communicated very well and lovely to work with! Thank you Jessica for making our holiday stress free and taking great care of Macho :)”

“Lindsay gave my dog a great time. My dog has a ton of energy and Lindsay's backyard allowed my dog to run around and burn some of that energy off. Communication was very smooth and I enjoyed the pictures and videos! Thanks Lindsay!”

“Ashley and Mauricio were wonderful with Emerson. They treated him like he was their own and made sure he had a fun, safe outing. He came back happy and tired in the best way. I really appreciated how kind and communicative they were throughout. I’d gladly have them take Emerson out again, highly recommended!”

“My fur babies and I LOVE María. She takes her time to get to know my dogs, which was so important to me. And she understands dog body language. Most importantly, she’s gentle, kind, and empathetic towards me and my fur babies.. I’ve already rebooked for another week of walks. Thank you Maria, you’re the best!! :)”

About: I’ve worked for shelters throughout college and fostered multiple cats, my longest foster was a year! I currently have three cats of my own, adopted from various shelters in NYC and all are super friendly! I’m very good at socializing cats for children friendly homes as well! I’m currently working full time, but I live across the street from my office. So I constantly have easy access to my cats or any fur baby in my home! My schedule is flexible during the week and I am also able to do overnight stays in areas around Stamford! I have a pet friendly apartment that is perfectly situated to house cats overnight or for a day! Fit with water fountains, toys, automatic feeders, and extra space is a cat needs some alone time. I also have multiple double sized litter boxes or a mini litter box situated in the bathroom. Lastly, I have a camera system to monitor the cats fitted with iOS notifications for any emergencies or alarms in the home.
About: My love of dogs led me to start a dog walking business when I was only 10 yrs old. Once I finally convinced my parents to get a dog, I was 15 and we ended up with two bichon-malteses who were the loves of my life. As an adult, my career has me traveling frequently so I haven’t become a pet owner, but I continue to dogsit for friends and neighbors because I love the companionship when I’m home. I am committed to providing your dog a comfortable home away from home where they will be well cared for and loved. I work from home Mondays and Fridays so can be available for care for a long weekend (Fri-Sat-Sun-Mon). My availability may be limited based on work travel. I live in a dog friendly building, where there is greenery and walking paths around the building for daily walks and enjoy going for longer walks in nearby parks.
“Alexa is terrific with our sometimes difficult dog. He loved her from the moment he met her! Alexa is extremely conscientious, keeping me updated on her arrival and departure and always checking his food and water before she leaves. And she takes the BEST pictures of their walks!”
“Ivon did a great job with Scout! My dog can be shy but quickly warmed up to Ivon and loved her. Ivon sent videos and pictures so I know my dog was having fun. We will use her walk service again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old and picked out the cutest black Lab/ border Collie mix named Memphis. Growing up with dogs and living with dogs has been such an important part of my life. My Mom even says I love dogs more than her! Friends have trusted me to take their dogs on walks, house-sit and just go over for some play-time. I'm currently working part-time on my next venture and can work from anywhere! This means my time is very flexible and can help out during all hours of the week. I consider myself a very caring and detail oriented person. I will care for your pets as if they were my own, per your instructions. I also pride myself on being a very clean individual and will take great care of your home.
“Katharine is absolutely wonderful! She’s reliable, caring and clearly loves dogs. My dog is so excited every time she arrives, and I always know he’s in great hands. She sends updates and photos after each walk. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind!”
“Nicole is an exceptional dog sitter and provide individualized care to my dog who’s quite anxious. Very grateful for her and rely on her when we have unexpected trips.”
“It was our first time having Hanaya help us out and she was upbeat and positive from the beginning. She cared for my two CKCS’s like they were her own. She shows a true love for dogs and her experience with them shows. I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life, including dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. I’ve trained multiple puppies, cared for senior dogs, and have years of experience looking after cats. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and always make sure each pet feels safe and loved. I currently work from home, so I have a flexible schedule for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. At the moment, I’m not able to offer boarding, as my own pets may not adjust well to new animals in the home. My approach is calm and understanding. I like to respect each pet’s unique personality and habits. I don’t believe in being overly strict, but I always make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. Your sweet pet will be loved just like they would be at home. I have experience with all dog sizes and temperaments. Your pet will be the focus of my day under my care. I love to be active and outside but happy to adjust to whatever your pet prefers. Your pets will be cuddled, walked, played with, and have a fun stay in safe hands with me. They will be treated with love and care.
“Nicole and her family were great with our dog Marty. We met once before leaving him for 4 days and immediately he seemed at ease, and I should note our dog Marty is pretty nervous around new people and new dogs. Nicole sent regular updates and each one showed a very happy pooch. He seemed very at ease with the family dog Dakota and bonded with their son. We will definitely ask Nicole and her family to dog-sit again and highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Karen is a wonderful dog sitter, she gave our baby so much love and attention. She followed her schedule and it looked like she was right at home! She communicated throughout the days and took so many excellent pictures. Roxy misses her already!!”
About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and I couldn’t imagine it any other way. Spending time with animals is my happy place and nothing brings me more joy than caring for and playing with them. I have a great deal of experience taking care of many dogs of various breeds and sizes. I currently have the flexibility to fully dedicate myself to what I would call my dream job which is working with animals. I can go on long or short walks and have an enclosed dog park around my area. I have taken care of dogs with medical problems and have experience giving dogs medicine such as eye drops and pills. I am a quick learner when it comes to the specific conditions the owner has for their dog .
“Our second time booking with Kevin and just as amazing as the first time! Except this time he also watched our tinier senior dog in addition to our other dog and puppy. All three pups seemed like they had a great time! He catered to each of their personalities/size/temperament and sent pictures and updates throughout their stay.”
