“Carolina and her family opened their home to Godfrey for 5 nights. This was Godfrey's first time being away from me and he was in the best of hands. Carolina stuck to his routine and gave me plenty of updates. Godfrey is a very special dog and his personality was able to shine through with Carolina! I am so happy with the experience and would recommend her to anyone!!”

This is a super family and I would love have them care for my sweet dog anytime. Our communication was fabulous and the photos you shared are so appreciated THANK YOU❤️”

“Miranda did an excellent job. I felt our dog was well-cared for and loved while he was in Miranda's care. He came back to us happy and content after 5 days. We received regular quality updates about how he was doing and adapting. I will definitely have him stay with Miranda again.”
“Nina was very accommodating to my dog and I. My dog stayed with her this past weekend and Nina treated him like a part of her family. I loved that he had a great time at her home and wasn’t just placed in a cage over night like at most places. I’m booking with her again for any future trips! If you want your fur baby to be comfortable, loved on, and well cared for, book with Nina. She’ll keep you updated and you won’t have to worry while you’re away.”

“Brittany was so great! She sent lots of photos of all the fun our dogs were having, keeping my mind at ease. She walked the dogs and made sure they had plenty of exercise, and from the looks of it- a ton of fun. Absolutely phenomenal!”
“Sharon was great! Took great care of our energetic rescue Jack for six days in her home, while we were traveling for February break. She provided regular updates, had thoughtful questions and communicated thoroughly throughout the process, was able to have him socialize with other dogs during their daily walks.

“Tina and family were the perfect match for our Beckham! He is a spunky little guy with lots of personality and energy and they gave him all the love and attention he could possibly want. He had lots of walks and free playing time with them on their huge lawn, including lots of fetch. Downtime included lots of naps and snuggles together on the couch. She sent multiple texts and pictures everyday letting me know he was adapting well and happy. 10/10 for service, communication, and its obvious that they love their animals. He was happy and well adjusted even after being away from home for a week. He will be staying with her again when we go away in the future!”

When I came home, all the dishes were clean and my house was just as tidy as I left it. She provided me with detailed updates and pictures from every visit and most importantly, my kitties loved her :)! I highly recommend her as a pet sitter and will definitely be booking with her again.”
About: I’ve helped take care of my dogs and cat my entire life! I’ve always loved spending time with pets, and as I became a teenager I started watching other people’s animals. It’s the best job in the world! I started going on rover visits with my mom who’s also an animal lover, who inspired me to create my own account! From lizards, to bunnies, to cats and dogs, I love them all! Pet care is my primary focus, my schedule is very flexible and centered around pets. I’m happy to work with you and your pets needs! I am willing to offer whatever your pet needs! Whether that be exercise, grooming, socialization, enrichment activities, or feeding! It varies depending on your animals needs.
“We booked Brianna last minute before our 10 day vacation and she was absolutely wonderful. She even took the time out of her day to come meet our cat and see our house before we left. She spent almost double the time with our cat the first few days to just get to know him and make sure he was comfortable with him. Throughout our trip she sent photos and little reports everytime she stopped by. I would definitely recommend using Brianna and we will 100% be using her again!”
“Libby was fantastic! My timid cats really warmed up to her while I was away. I really appreciated that she spent time with them to get them comfortable, enticing them with toys and play time. She was very responsive to my messages and consistent with feeding times. I definitely trust her and will be using her again in the future. Thanks Libby! 😄”
About: I currently have two cats of my own and have experience caring for cats with medical and behavioral needs. One of my cats has a protein allergy so she requires a strict diet. My other cat is senior. I understand cats have a wide variety of personalities and am comfortable caring for them all. I can be there whether your cat wants attention and playtime, or if they just need someone to keep their routine consistent while you’re away. I pet sit outside of Rover and am happy to provide local references. My goal is to make your cat feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I always provide frequent updates, photos, and videos.
“Genuinely the best sitter I have ever had!! Was so kind and adaptable, and always made sure to keep updating me the whole way through. A sweetheart that gave my kitties extra love when they needed it and always went above and beyond!”
“Excellent - highly recommended! She took care of our 2 kitties and kept us posted on everything while we were away. Will definitely have Amy take care of our kitties again!”
“Miranda was an amazing cat sitter! 11/10 would recommend. While we were gone, she was able to divide and administer heart failure medication for one of our cats, cleaned up hairballs, made sure they had food & water, and kept their litter boxes clean. She was very communicative and we loved her photo updates and her drop in descriptions.”
About: I have several years of experience caring for friends' and family members' cats. I'm comfortable with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and providing attentive care to help cats feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away
About: As a dog owner for 15 years, I have always loved being around any and all animals. Happy to help reinforce training on walks or at home visits. I have pet sit before for multiple animals at a time, and can be flexible based on your needs! Truly just happy to spend time with your pet and help them. Looking forward to working together! I currently work full-time, however I work from home some days. Since I am home more than anticipated, I am looking to fill that time with furry friends. Though I do work full-time, I am flexible in the early mornings and evenings, and can be available on weekends. I grew up around animals, and helped my family take care of our Jack Russell Terrier as he grew to 15 years old. This involved carrying him up and down stairs, and occasionally providing medication. I currently have a dog of my own, an almost 2 year old Jack Russell mix, so I am very familiar with high energy dogs and am eager to provide physical and mental stimulation to help make your dog happy!
“We’re new to the area so we don’t know anybody who could watch our spoiled felines while we were away. Verca took the time to come introduce herself, meet the cats, and chat. We were nervous, especially since one of our cats has anxiety but, even he warmed up to her by the second day! We’ve booked her for our longer trip later this month too!”
About: I have taken care of pets, both dogs and cats, since I was young. I especially love playtime and cuddles, but am not afraid to go the extra mile to ensure a pet is happy and healthy. I currently have a very flexible schedule, and am available during all working hours, and more, to check in on your furry friend and make sure they are happy! I have had a cat for over 2 years now, and make sure that she has a clean and safe environment so that she is comfortable, and will hold myself to the same standard for your pet!

“Carolina was amazing with our dog! When we picked him up, he was happy, calm, and exhausted—which tells me he got plenty of attention, playtime, and care. Communication was great and we felt very comfortable the entire time. We’ll definitely be using her again. Thank you!”
“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!”
“As she says in her introduction, Jennifer does give attentive care, together with her dog. Her rates are double what I have paid other caregivers on Rover - hard to judge if it is worth it but she was available locally when I needed someone.”
“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 believe that with age comes wisdom, patience, and experience that simply can’t be taught. I am lucky enough to have reached the age where I have gained said wisdom, patience, and experience that only age can bestow upon us! For this reason, in addition to my 30 years of experience caring for dogs is what I believe separates me from other pet sitters. I have over 30 years of experience caring for both large and small dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. Over the years, I’ve developed not only strong, reliable caregiving skills but also a deep and genuine love for dogs. Their happiness, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand that dogs are not “one size fits all.” Every dog has a unique personality, temperament, energy level, and set of needs. Some thrive on long walks and endless games of fetch, while others prefer a slower pace and extra cuddle time. I take the time to learn each dog’s routines, preferences, and comfort zones so I can provide personalized care that helps them feel secure and loved. Our family recently lost our beloved Chiweenie, Bailey, at 14 years old. She was truly part of our family, and caring for her through every stage of her life only deepened my understanding of the changing needs dogs have as they age. While we don’t currently have a dog, we are looking forward to welcoming the next fur baby into both our hearts and our home. My posted rates are all “starting at” rates. Once I meet a prospective family and learn more about their dog’s specific needs, we can always discuss and adjust rates accordingly. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. I am attentive, patient, and committed to providing individualized, compassionate care for every dog entrusted to me. New Clients Use My Code For $20 Off of Your First Service! https://www.rover.com/sit/katiel73869 I care for your pet(s) the way I cared for my own pet; with love, careful attention, (not only for signs of what s/he may need, but also to help build a bond with your fur baby, and for safety), and respect. Your dog is welcome both on my couch and in my bed. If this is something that is against the rules in your home, please let me know so that I’m not unknowingly breaking your rules! The best way to explain how I will treat your dog is, “I will treat your dog(s) like I would treat my own,” or “I will treat your dog the way I would want someone to treat my dog!”
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.
About: I’m a 41 year old professional who loves animals. I have a 4 year old cat of my own and have always wanted a puppy as a child. Animals are loving and calming to me. I help care for them they help me. I will dog walk which keeps them happy and me active. I will drop in on cats and dogs to feed play with and help go to the bathroom. If it’s the right fit for your family and pup I would stay 1 night a week and definitely weekends overnight while people are away or traveling. I am an open communicator, reliable, respectful, trustworthy professional. Please get to know me so I can get to know you and your animal has the best experience possible. I currently have lots of availability and I would be my pleasure to walk and check in for your pups and cats several times a week. I have a yard on a dead end street, a big basement and am very close to Wilcox Park, ready for long walks in great neighborhood with lots to explore.
About: Hi. My name is Bree, I'm an independent journalist working and living in Mystic, CT. I love gardening, hiking, reading, and being outdoors. I have a Golden Mountain Dog and a young child so dogs need to be kid and dog friendly. I look forward to meeting you and your pet. As I'm self-employed and work from home, my work day is very flexible. I try my best to stick to your pet’s routine and happy to accommodate their schedule. I have a fairly large fenced in yard in downtown Mystic and I would love to have your dog with me at my house. My dog is very friendly and would love to play with your dog. If you have any questions please reach out.
“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.”
About: Hi everyone! I’m Lauren, I grew up with 2 dogs and 1 cat (1 sheltie, 1 collie, and 1 Maine coon). I love caring for animals, I will make sure your pet is spoiled and happy! I love taking my pets I sit on adventures to parks if it is ok with the owner! I am detail oriented, therefore always aware of your pet and keeping them on their paws for new sniffs!

I have a flexible schedule as I study most of the day as well as teach tennis lessons for a couple hours here and there in the evening. I am willing to care for your pet and provide exceptional service to keep them happy. I have a backyard as well as a quiet neighborhood.
About: I I have a unique background in dog sitting that sets me apart from others. For years, I’ve lovingly cared for my own 16-year-old rescue dog, who had special needs. This experience taught me how to provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each dog’s individual requirements, especially senior dogs who need a little extra support and patience. In addition to senior care, I’ve looked after dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, gaining valuable insights into their different needs and personalities. I also have hands-on experience with puppies, ever since I adopted my golden retriever as a puppy—she’s now 2 years old and absolutely loves other dogs. Living within walking distance of the beach, I’m always excited to take dogs on outdoor adventures, making sure they have a fantastic time during their stay with me. Whether it’s a leisurely walk, playtime, or simply extra snuggles, I’m dedicated to keeping every dog happy, comfortable, and safe. I am currently self-employed and work on my own time virtually. I am pretty much home all day everyday! I love being outside and going on long walks with the dogs I sit for. I have a yard with a stake for safe outdoor time, and I live within walking distance to the water—so the dogs will be going on plenty of walks and adventures.
“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!”
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.
“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!”
“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!”

“Libby is the best! She took my dog Wilfred on some great walks and was very responsible and kind. I appreciate that she also looked out to make sure Wilfred didn’t have any ticks on him after the walks as we live near the woods. Thank you, Libby!”
“Thanks for spending the time with Jenny walking her and letting her interact with the kids. That socialization is so important and also wears her out. She does love a car ride!”
“Susan did a wonderful job taking care of my pets this weekend! She was able to schedule a meet-and-greet on short notice and was very thorough collecting the care instructions for my two large dogs and three cats. She was so patient with my very large and active Labradoodle and St. Bernadoodle. My dogs seemed very attached to her quite quickly and she did a fantastic job with them. She arrived promptly according to the care schedule, sent detailed updates and was extremely professional and lovely to work with. I am so happy to have found such an excellent sitter in my area and will gladly continue to rebook Susan!! Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve grown up with a dog and cat my entire life. I have experience with training. I grew up walking my neighbors dogs. When my friend goes out of town I walk and feed her dog as well as her cat. I learn very easily so if there is specific needs for your pet, I will always follow those instructions. I have just started using the rover app and have had wonderful experiences with pets and families. I work some days during the week, but otherwise I am fully flexible. I’m open to discussing any needs and finding the best schedule for the pets! If there is anything I can do to ensure you feel comfortable, I am more than happy to work it out. Making sure your pet is cared for is my top priority.

About: I’ve had two of my own dogs since I was 2. I really enjoy fostering dogs and puppies, and just being around dogs in general- I’m also a big walker! My dog Winnie is a rescue so I have experience working with more timid, shy, or skiddish dogs on walks. I’m currently a college student on summer break. I am taking a couple of summer classes and volunteering part time so I have plenty of time to walk! I will always put your dog first, making sure they feel safe and comfortable wherever we are. I will make sure they get anything they need; frequent breaks, water, treats.
“I found Danielle to be adaptable, flexible, communicative, open, reliable, trustworthy, dependable. She did exactly what she said she was going to do and more. She was available last minute to come watch/walk my dogs twice a day every day for seven days. She did not miss one day. She was here at the same time every day by 3:30 p.m.and again by 8. p.m. she used the Rover app extensively, I knew through Rover when she left the house when she was on her walk and when she returns the house. She sent pictures of the dogs. And she even fed the cats for me because I needed to have the cats occupied while she left the house so they wouldn’t try to slip out. I have three indoor cats. She went over and above my expectations. I am so so thankful the couple that I had planned to watch my dogs canceled on me 36 hours before my flight out. I needed someone desperately and three people were available. I chose Danielle because of her self reported review, and when she came to the house, her demeanor, confidence, ability to deal with the barking dogs and excitability of one of my dogs showed me that she could handle just about anything. I will be traveling again soon. Danielle will be my go to. Even if I have to leave the house for an entire day, I will be using Rover to schedule with Danielle she’s the best. So so so thankful that the first couple ditched me because I would never ever have met such a capable person like Danielle. There wasn’t a moment that I worried about my animals. Nor my house. She is so flexible that she had no problem canceling the last day due to my flight being on time, and me returning to the home an hour before her scheduled dog walk. She’s wonderful. My only problem with Danielle is I’m afraid she’ll be so busy after people read my review that she won’t have time to squeeze me into her schedule. She’s a keeper for sure.”
“Heidii is the absolute best! She was so attentive and loving, and sent the cutest photos. She really went above and beyond to show Sammy extra love and attention while I was out of town. When I got home he looked a little disappointed that it wasn’t Heidii… 🤣”

“This was my first time using Rover for my own pup, and I couldn’t be happier with Aimee. She has been amazing with a fast response time and dealing with my last minute requests. I will be using her services in the future”
About: I own 2 dogs and a cat of my own. I walk my dogs every day. I have a degree in veterinary nursing and have experience working with dogs of all ages in both animal shelters and veterinary hospitals. I will treat your pet as my own ❤️🤗 I am available Wednesday-Saturdays. I can do dog walking, pet sitting in your home or mine and any pet-related activities 🤗❤️ i love all dogs! I have a secure fenced in yard and 2 very friendly dogs to keep your fur babies company. I can also crate your dog if they feel more secure in a crate ❤️
About: I’ve taken care of friends and family’s furry friends for the last 15 years. They have relied on me to walk, feed, and take care of their pets often. Until recently, I had my own senior dog and had taken care of puppies, adults, seniors, and even dogs with disabilities. I currently work part time and am able to fit in walks or drop in visits around my regular daily schedule. I usually only know my schedule two weeks in advance. I am not able to take care of your pets in my home but am happy and able to keep them comfortable in their own space!
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have owned dogs, cats, a horse, rabbits, birds, rodents and reptiles. I currently have two cats and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, needs and routines. I offer walks, drop ins, and overnight care for both dogs and cats. I’m flexible whether your dog (or cat) wants a long or short walk, playtime, or just someone to keep them company. I pet sit outside of Rover and am happy to provide local references. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I always provide frequent updates, photos, and videos. I work full-time in Guilford during the week, but I’m available before and after work, on weekends, and for overnight house sitting. My Rover calendar is set to weekends only, but I can often accommodate weekday requests as well depending on location and timing. I know it’s important to trust someone with your pets and in your home. I follow instructions closely, help keep routines consistent, and keep your pet safe and comfortable. I’m happy to provide references and send frequent updates, photos, and videos.

“Carolina and her family opened their home to Godfrey for 5 nights. This was Godfrey's first time being away from me and he was in the best of hands. Carolina stuck to his routine and gave me plenty of updates. Godfrey is a very special dog and his personality was able to shine through with Carolina! I am so happy with the experience and would recommend her to anyone!!”
“Thank you sooooo much for taking care of my Willow! You and your family did a wonderful job with her over night visit. I am so blessed to have found you. This is a super family and I would love have them care for my sweet dog anytime. Our communication was fabulous and the photos you shared are so appreciated THANK YOU❤️”
“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”
“So happy- we received lots of pictures of our girl while we were away. Thomas & Erica are very attentive & quick to respond. We can’t wait to use them again! Georgann”
“Stevie was very happy during her stay. We loved that she had other dogs to play with and a big yard. Received updates and pictures often that gave us piece of mind. Will definitely be booking again. Thanks again Dana!”
“Miranda did an excellent job. I felt our dog was well-cared for and loved while he was in Miranda's care. He came back to us happy and content after 5 days. We received regular quality updates about how he was doing and adapting. I will definitely have him stay with Miranda again.”
“Nina was very accommodating to my dog and I. My dog stayed with her this past weekend and Nina treated him like a part of her family. I loved that he had a great time at her home and wasn’t just placed in a cage over night like at most places. I’m booking with her again for any future trips! If you want your fur baby to be comfortable, loved on, and well cared for, book with Nina. She’ll keep you updated and you won’t have to worry while you’re away.”
“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. 🐾”
“We are so relieved we found someone amazing to watch our pup while we are away! Shannon was amazing with responding and sending pictures along with giving updates. Thank you again!”
“Loved her!! Got daily pics and updates which was AMAZING! My pup was definitely loved while she was there and made our trip less stressful knowing she was in a good home :)”
“Eva was great. She sent multiple pictures, walked her numerous times and Ellie was more comfortable with Eva that she was asking for b(Ellie) rubs :) I'd recommend Eva to all my friends who have dogs.”
“Brittany was so great! She sent lots of photos of all the fun our dogs were having, keeping my mind at ease. She walked the dogs and made sure they had plenty of exercise, and from the looks of it- a ton of fun. Absolutely phenomenal!”
“Sharon was great! Took great care of our energetic rescue Jack for six days in her home, while we were traveling for February break. She provided regular updates, had thoughtful questions and communicated thoroughly throughout the process, was able to have him socialize with other dogs during their daily walks. Highly recommend and will use again!”
“Laura was so wonderful! She made our family and our pup so comfortable and sent pictures and updates throughout our trip. We were so happy knowing that our dog got to be part of Laura’s family while we were away. We’d highly recommend Laura!”
“Tina and family were the perfect match for our Beckham! He is a spunky little guy with lots of personality and energy and they gave him all the love and attention he could possibly want. He had lots of walks and free playing time with them on their huge lawn, including lots of fetch. Downtime included lots of naps and snuggles together on the couch. She sent multiple texts and pictures everyday letting me know he was adapting well and happy. 10/10 for service, communication, and its obvious that they love their animals. He was happy and well adjusted even after being away from home for a week. He will be staying with her again when we go away in the future!”
“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.”
“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.”
