“Butter had such a nice stay! Nicole sent so many pictures of him throughout his stay and he got so much socializing time with other puppy friends! He looked like he had such a fun time and seemed well taken care of! I loved receiving updates and pictures all throughout the day to see what he’s up to and what he’s doing! I definitely will rebook again!”
“Kristina was an amazing sitter for Teddy! I’m giving her 5 stars for the great care she provided. She took Teddy on regular walks and kept me updated every day with detailed recaps, photos, and videos, which I really appreciated. She was very communicative and patient, especially when Teddy wasn’t eating much in a new environment. She made sure he was comfortable and took the time to help him adjust. She also administered his anxiety medication without any issues, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I would absolutely book with Kristina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Lynsey was incredibly accommodating and made sure that Zora was coming into a friendly environment. Her pup Stan got along great with mine, and she had an ample, secure space that the pups could run around in.”

“Chloe's place was so much fun for my dog because he was surrounded by good caring people who have their own dogs each with a different energy level, all very chill and easy going. My dog made a best friend to play with all day. I'm sure they must have slept well at some point.”
“We are so happy to find Khanh and Tommy to care for our Pluto while we are away for 2 weeks. We feel he is in good hands. He receives lot of loves and attentions like at home. My sons are excited seeing daily photos and videos of our Pluto playing with Khanh’s family and their dogs in their backyard. We will use them again and highly recommend their service! Thank you so much!”
“Anna went above and beyond in her care for our Lucy. She took so many pictures and seemed to genuinely enjoy taking care of our fur pup. Hoping we can visit Anna and her family again in the future!”

“Robin is always so wonderful with our dog, Adelaide. She does regular drop in visits with her so when we need boarding services, Robin is always our first choice! She shows our dog so much care, attention and love.”

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.”
“Karina always does a wonderful job of taking care of our big, shy pup. She has made him feel so comfortable in her home, and now when we take him to stay he runs to greet her, so he has really adopted her into his family! Also, Jared has been fantastic in encouraging Sancho to feel relaxed. We can't thank them both enough for giving us peace of mind for our dear one, when we have to be away.”
“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!!”

About: I have taken care of my own cats for all of my life and neighbors cats. Cleaning litter boxes, being on top of food and water, and ofcourse giving cats enough play time as that is very important in a cats routine.
“Kim was always on time, topped off the food and water, and cleaned the litter box for my two cats. Immediate rapport between my 'boys' and Kim was great! I would invite her again as needed.”
“This is the third time that Tara took care of our treasured cat, Charlie. It is not easy to leave your pet for weeks; but when Tara is on the case, we can rest easy. Tara is dependable and a true animal lover. We adore her spirit and positivity. Charlie usually makes a mess, but we always come home to a tidy home. We plan to book Tara again and again. Thanks, Tara.”

“Was away for 12 days & needed daily care for my kitties. Caitlyn was available for all the dates & also did a number of drop ins prior to get to know them. Things went so smoothly & she provided me so much peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend, she is fantastic!”
“Katie took such good care of my kitties! She stopped in prior to our scheduled pet sitting to meet my cats, which was much appreciated. She did everything I asked, and made an effort to give my kitties some playtime, even though they were being shy. She provided lots of pics and feedback after each visit, which I love to see, as I worry about my girls when I can’t be home with them. We will definitely be using her services again! ?”
“Ashley was great- communicative, extremely helpful, and managed all the cat care throughout blizzard conditions! My cat was totally relaxed and happy when we came home. Thank you Ashley!”
“We're so glad we were able to book Kristy and Chris to do drop-ins for our cat while we were on vacation over the weekend.

Would highly recommend them to anyone else in the area!”
“She was awesome taking care of our cats! She’s very good at giving oral medication so I felt comfortable with her giving meds to our boy. Thank you so much!!”
About: I provide, as well as top-notch care,a uniquely adaptive music therapy session for your pet so that even the most high-strung pets can feel relaxed and reassured by the sound of live classical piano music. A professional musician,I have also raised a litter of 10 puppies and have owned at least one dog at every point in my life.I am a consummate pet lover with 2 dogs currently. If your animal is a bit of a loner I can provide sequestered accommodations. I have a 16 year old who also loves animals; she as well has never lived without a dog. One of her passions is horseback riding and through this activity she has achieved a gentle but commanding demeanor around most animals. Between the two of us your pet will never lack a playmate! My work schedule allows for either me or my daughter to always be at home, so the pets have round the clock love and attention. I have a fenced in yard, and a house with plenty of space for pets to hang out. My 2 dogs are very friendly and are used to visiting dogs.
“Our cat Ashley is shy, anxious, and not super trusting of strangers. After just a few days she and Meaghan were fast friends. This is the second time we’ve hired Meaghan to take care of our girl and she continues to do such a spectacular job of it. I was so thrilled to see how well Meaghan was able to coax our girl out of her shell and am so comfortable having Meaghan in the house. We will for sure go with Meaghan for all future cat sitting opportunities.”
About: My first animal care job was watching my neighboors 4 cats when he would be away. I did not grow up with my own cats but now that I am an adult I happily house 2 kitties, one with special needs. I have become experienced in socializing shy guys, medicating them (liquid, pills, AND inhaler!!!) with tips from my cat specific veterinary provider. Earning the trust of my once feral young cat has been such a rewarding experience, and you can trust that through this process I have come to understand and respect a cat’s boundaries. I will never push them to be uncomfortable and I feel I have strong intuition and patience when handling cat’s appropriately. I look forward to assisting you and your cat with their care needs.
“Courtney was great! She sent me pictures every visit, checked in and out when she dropped in, took care of my plants, and when she dropped off my key, my cats ran to greet her, obviously having enjoyed the play time with her. I will definitely book Courtney again.”

About: Grew up on a farm caring for animals since my youth. now enjoy the company of visiting dogs, just like I had with my own. I currently work part-time and many situations able to bring a boarding dog with me; as I work with mostly older folks who would love the sweetness of a dog visit; considered therapy. I have a side fenced yard, safe from the road, and only do private walks in a comfortable grass field near my home, leashed and one at a time for individual attention.
About: I see dogs as part of the family, not as just a pet, and will care for yours as if s/he were my own.

Being retired, I am available during the weekdays and look forward to the opportunity to care for and entertain your pet.

I live in a nice neighborhood with plenty of room for leashed walks

About: Since childhood, friends and neighbors have always relied on me to watch their pets! I grew up with dogs but do not own one now due to housing and have two kitties. I am also experienced with large farm animals and safety when handling and being around them. This translates to dogs as well, for safety we must remember we can never 100% predict an animals behavior. I maintain one part time job aside from home animal care, so we will discuss your custom scheduling! Mornings afternoons evenings or frequent visits for medical reasons can be managed based on your needs! Thank you so much for reading and considering me for services While unable to host pets at my home, I always follow the owners instructions closely and pay attention to detail regarding an animals home turf!! I would never disrespect the animals home and space.
“Jesse was great with Oscar! They hit it off from the meet and greet and Jesse even recommended a new harness to help keep Oscar from pulling. We came home to a happy dog and Jesse even brought in some packages for us. He sent great pictures and video and kept us updated about how Oscar was doing.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life but 2 of my dogs gave birth to 11 puppies in October of 2022 and I helped take care of them all until they were ready to go to their new homes. I kept one of the puppies and have taken care of her since she was a newborn so I am very familiar around all types of dogs. I’m currently available most weekdays and weekends. I keep my calendar up to date and do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Feel free to reach out with your dates, and I’ll respond as quickly as I can. I will make sure your pets are getting enough attention and exercise when you are away and will treat them like they are my own.
“Stacey is so incredible!!! She is communicative, flexible, and so kind. She took amazing care of my girl and went above and beyond to be helpful. A bear knocked over our recycling bin and she picked it all up, she brought a package in, and most importantly she made our dog so so happy!! We will call Stacey any time we need a little help with Blue going forward!”
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience and genuine love for dogs of all ages. I worked at a dog kennel for two years, where I cared for dogs with all kinds of temperaments, ages, and needs. I’m experienced with senior dog care and I’m comfortable with puppies too—whether it’s crate training, potty breaks, or just keeping up with their energy! Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine since I have a pretty open and flexible schedule. I’m most available Tuesday through Friday between 11:30 AM and 4:30 PM, which works great for midday walks or drop ins. That said, I’m always happy to discuss and make arrangements that work best for you and your pet! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, needs, and personality to make sure they feel secure and loved. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and follow any instructions you provide whether that’s feeding schedules or favorite toys. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you're away.
About: I’ve cared for many different animals throughout my life, including mammals, birds, reptiles/amphibians, exotics, farm animals, and wildlife. I’ve cared for pets of friends and family. I have experience with overnight sitting in the pet’s home. I also have experience caring for senior and special needs animals. I spent 6 months as a volunteer at a vet clinic assisting with exams and surgical procedures, and I am currently exploring career paths in animal sciences and wildlife rehabilitation. I have lots of availability to care for your fur babies! I work part-time as a waitress while exploring different careers in the field of animal behavior and sciences. I have the flexibility to accommodate to your schedule and needs. I can be available on most weekends and holidays. I also accept same-day bookings. I prefer to care for animals in their own home where they feel most comfortable. As well as walking in areas they are familiar with. I always make sure to maintain pet safety in the home such as keeping doors/windows/gates shut and keeping hazardous items and toxic plants out of reach or locked away.
About: Hello friends! My name is Londiwe I'm 19f I recently graduated high school and am excited to embark on a career in pet care. I love both dogs and cats! I'm experienced with taking care of cats, I had a cat for 4 years so i'm familiar with cleaning the litter box, feeding, washing, and playing with cats. As for dogs i'm familiar with them in the sense of being around them through friends/family and I adore dogs. When I was really young i would go to a pet store where you could see or play with puppies and I loved it. I'm aware also with dogs that if I were to pet sit I would have to make sure they're taken care of like: fed, played with, and in their cage whenever the client says they're suppose to be. I also provide unlimited cuddles/pets/love for both dogs and cats. :) I'm currently free to dog walk or petsit any day of the week and if not then I would most certainly let the client know beforehand and try to be flexible with my schedule. The services I offer are dog walking and pet sitting in the clients home. I currently don't have any pets but if I were to, I would feed and play with the dog or cat in question and clean up after any mess they may make and basically treat them as family.
About: I grew up with dogs and have always loved caring for them. I currently have a mix breed, Marley who is my little sunshine. I enjoy hiking, running and watching cartoons with him haha. I know what its like finding someone who is trustworthy to care for my dog when I need to travel for work or personal vacation. It can be a bit stressful looking for a good sitter but I can assure you that your dog will be in good hands.
“Melody provided quality care to my Labrador while i was away. She followed directions, provided great updates, and demonstrated exceptional flexibility and was willing to adapt to my schedule. I highly recommend and am excited to rebook with her!”
About: I’ve always had a passion for animals which brought me into the veterinary field 12 years ago as a kennel attendant, I loved the job however I didn’t feel all the animals boarding were always getting one on one attention. Over the last 12 years I’ve gone to school and graduated as a Veterinary Assistant/Veterinary Technician, currently in school for my B.A in Veterinary Technology. Taking care of animals is truly my passion whether it be in my hospital, at home or for family and friends, all pets truly get treated as if they were my own. It truly gives me joy knowing I’ve made a small difference. With all that has been stated above I do have a full time job as a ER/ICU Veterinary Nurse. Thank you for taking the time to view my profile and the best of luck in your search for the perfect pet sitter My current ER work schedule is Mon-Wed 8am to 6pm and every other Sunday 8am to 4pm. I do have hour lunches if needed. Also I will add since making my profile active again, I am a single mother to a adorable 14 month old little boy. So with that being said I would only be able to book house sittings when he is with his dad. ALL pets in my care are treated like my own. ALL animals in my care are always treated with respect, love and most importantly compassion
About: My name is Kristina Leigh. I recently turned 42 years old ( in human years) I have spent the majority of these years sharing my life with dogs. I have experience working as a groomer, working at a pet store, and I also have Emergency 24hr Veterinary Hospital Clinic experience. I took classes at Northwestern CT Community College in the Vet Tech program. I have loved 3 amazing senior sweet rescue pitbulls throughout my adult life, and countless four-pawed friends in between. I am not a stranger to exotic reptiles, amphibians, and small rodents of all varieties. This includes my lifetime passion for fresh and salt water fish care. I am very calm, gentle, and patient when it comes to caring for senior dogs and nervous pups. I have basic first aid pet knowledge, but most importantly I have common sense. The most important thing to me personally, is to completely put your mind at ease. Your pets are in great hands. I know and understand as a pet parent the worry that often comes with being away from your pet. That being said, I can guarentee that proper care, respect, and instructions will be shown and followed with your animal and within your home. But I am certain that you will feel at ease by how your pet behaves in my presence. I love animals, and they know it. Trust and respect are incredibly important for me when I am choosing who cares for my pet, my dog is my little chubby dumpling princess. The absolute best is what I ask and expect, and that is what I give to your own little buddies. I have my own transportation, and can accommodate new changes in schedule in a reasonable amount of time. My schedule is flexible, and so is my character. I am more than willing to help create a solution when one feels impossible. All you need do is ask. Things happen; life happens, and hopefully you will feel that choosing me as your pet's Auntie makes things much easier for you. I take the safety of your furry family member very seriously I have training experience walking bouncy puppies, "pully" pooches, and slow older doggos. I am patient, calm, and know my surroundings at all times during the walks. I can help teach your dog proper leash etiquette if it is wanted I absolutely love spending time around dogs and animals. This is my passion, and if I could do this for free everyday, I would. I have plenty of time to put towards the care of animals. I have a detailed schedule that I follow, and everything is organized and on track. I understand that while caring for animals, extreme care must be taken. I have been called over-protective when it comes to my own pets. But it is for their own protection. Unfortunately, they lack the legal rights that humans have. I am very careful when other animals are around (especially leash-less wildcards coming in hot towards myself and the dog I'm walking ) therefore, it is my choice to not allow strangers to pet any animal I am caring for. Similar to working dogs. There are too many negative examples of pets becoming unfairly removed from their homes because of some untrue accusation. An example is this: You've definitely seen dogs " smiling" to their owners. Some dogs just learn that behavior, and it is far from aggressive behaviour in their minds. Now say someone asks to pet your dog on a walk. The dog smiles, and it is misinterpreted as aggression, person is scared, maybe they act in a way that is embarrassing once they realize they aren't in danger. Maybe they create a scenario in their minds where they were bitten and then they want the " violent" dog put down. and then that is where the mess begins. Safety first!
About: I have cared for dwarf hamsters to horses. Kittens that needed to be bottle fed up until the rainbow bridge. have cared for & helped many animals across that bridge. an animal is for life. nothing less. I currently am not working so I have all day to care for animals as well as play with them & love & adore them. My yard is not fenced in but I have trees for some runs to keep them safe when not inside or on a leash with me. Safety first but followed with an exuberant amount of love.

“Butter had such a nice stay! Nicole sent so many pictures of him throughout his stay and he got so much socializing time with other puppy friends! He looked like he had such a fun time and seemed well taken care of! I loved receiving updates and pictures all throughout the day to see what he’s up to and what he’s doing! I definitely will rebook again!”
“Kristina was an amazing sitter for Teddy! I’m giving her 5 stars for the great care she provided. She took Teddy on regular walks and kept me updated every day with detailed recaps, photos, and videos, which I really appreciated. She was very communicative and patient, especially when Teddy wasn’t eating much in a new environment. She made sure he was comfortable and took the time to help him adjust. She also administered his anxiety medication without any issues, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I would absolutely book with Kristina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Lynsey was incredibly accommodating and made sure that Zora was coming into a friendly environment. Her pup Stan got along great with mine, and she had an ample, secure space that the pups could run around in.”

“My two pups had an overnight with James and his family. We have been looking for a new sitter for more than 6 months since ours moved to another state. The girls came back happy and tired. I got updates and photos while they were with him. We will be using James again.”
“Tilly, our 100+ pound puppy, stayed with Nell for a weekend and had a wonderful time. Nell was welcoming, accommodating, and kind. Tilly is already looking forward to another visit!”
About: I have 2 beautiful pups at home with a whole farm to roam. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, there isn't many animals I haven’t had as pets growing up. My dogs love other dogs and enjoy having them over as guests. We go on long hikes in the area, swimming and of course exploring our farm. I have used other Rover sitters for my own pets and would like to take care of other peoples dogs now. I am home everyday so the dogs get a lot of attention and playtime. I’m a flight attendant so when I’m home, I’m home the whole day. I spend quality time with my dogs and they are never lonely I have a very large crate if required, plenty of yard, and have trained 2 well behaved dogs that are even off leashed trained. I will always respect your requirements for your pets care and treat them like my own.
“Chloe's place was so much fun for my dog because he was surrounded by good caring people who have their own dogs each with a different energy level, all very chill and easy going. My dog made a best friend to play with all day. I'm sure they must have slept well at some point.”
“Anna went above and beyond in her care for our Lucy. She took so many pictures and seemed to genuinely enjoy taking care of our fur pup. Hoping we can visit Anna and her family again in the future!”
“Katie was wonderful. This was short notice and she could not have been more accommodating. Tully had a great time playing with the other pups and came home happy and exhausted. I highly recommend Katie.”
“Robin is always so wonderful with our dog, Adelaide. She does regular drop in visits with her so when we need boarding services, Robin is always our first choice! She shows our dog so much care, attention and love.”
“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.”
“Karina always does a wonderful job of taking care of our big, shy pup. She has made him feel so comfortable in her home, and now when we take him to stay he runs to greet her, so he has really adopted her into his family! Also, Jared has been fantastic in encouraging Sancho to feel relaxed. We can't thank them both enough for giving us peace of mind for our dear one, when we have to be away.”
“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!!”
“This was my second time using Jaylese and I will absolutely continue to use her every time! She took amazing care of Murphy, and even when he had some unexpected health Issues that meant he had to go to the vet, she handled the situation perfectly and kept me updated throughout the entire time. Murphy loves Jaylese and I wouldn’t want him to spend his time away from me with anyone else.”
“Alan and Luis did a great job with my big ball of fur while I was on a business trip. They sent me lots of pictures which is and updates which is a great thing to have. They let me know how she was playing with other dogs and settling in. She has some slightly unique feeding needs and they didn't bat an eye. I was very happy.”
“She is an awesome sitter! Took pictures of my pup Cooper everyday for me and you could really tell she made him part of the family while he was there. Also went above and beyond to make sure he was safe and happy while I was away! Definitely would recommend her!!!”
