“Super kind with our big guy especially since he damaged his walls from either separation anxiety or attacking lights/reflections. We will be compensating him for this. ? they took care of Blue and were just very kind.”


About: I have been a devoted dog owner for over 25 years and caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I provide attentive, personalized care. I prioritize their health and happiness through walks, plenty of love, and careful attention to their needs. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own! I am a stay at home dog mom. 🐶 I love to start and end my day with walking my dog. And sometimes one in between. 😊 I have lots of time to love and care for your dog as well! I have a fenced yard, as well as living across the street from a large park. I take my dog over several times a day to walk and play. I can also crate your dog if needed.
“We had a great experience with Sophia and my puppy had a great stay and came home happy and healthy. She has a nice big back yard all fenced in and a great setup for the pups to stay in their own little suite. I will definitely use her services in the future and have recommended her to a few people already.”

“Leaving my dog for the first time was worrisome, but I felt comfortable leaving him in Heidi's care. I could tell she had his best interest in mind and he had other great dogs of hers to keep him company. My separation anxiety puppy definitely seems like he enjoyed his stay and was in good care the whole time. I received updates everyday to ease any worries which was very nice. Will use her again for Rudy!”

About: I have been watching animals for 16 years and have been surrounded by them my whole life. My husband and I have two dogs and two cats. We have trained our dogs ourselves. We have a fenced in back yard and lots of toys and mentally stimulating activities for dogs of all shapes and sizes! I don’t love when animals are lonely and locked in cages all day - so I want to help you as best as I can! I work from home off eastern time with occasional work trips. I’m pretty flexible during the week and can move my schedule around to accommodate you! I have a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. We also have two cats but they tend to hide when there’s a lot of commotion. I can crate your fur baby at your request! I am all for open and honest communication and would love to send you updates through the day!
“Really loved Krystal as a sitter! She was able to take my dog last minute on a holiday. She was great at responding to any messages I sent and she was awesome at giving detailed responses on how my dog was handling everything!”

“We boarded our dog with Kelsey and her sweet family for a few days, and everything went great! My dog seemed so relaxed and tired out when I picked her up haha, so I feel like she had a great time. ☺️ I loved that someone was always home with her, so she didn’t have to spend much time alone. She got lots of playtime, pets, and attention, which made me feel really good about leaving her. Their yard was also amazing and had so much space for her to run around and play! Kelsey and her family were so sweet with her during the meet and greet, so I felt really good about leaving her with them while we were gone. I unfortunately ran late to the drop-off, but Kelsey was super understanding and flexible, and we were still able to work out a time that worked. We had such a great experience and would definitely trust Kelsey and her family with our dog again! ❤️ Thank you so much again!”

About: I will Keep them playful and active and well fed. I allow dogs on the couch and love to cuddle, go for walks, and talk to them like if they were a friend. I can only watch them at the owners house because my brother is allergic. I’m available anytime. Please leave me things such as their water bottle, treats, and toys. I Love pets and will always message you about how they are doing. Pet care services include basic needs like food, water, shelter, and exercise, but can also involve grooming, medication, and companionship, with the specific tasks depending on the service offered, such as pet sitting, and house sitting. Aspects for both home and client care are ensuring a safe environment, providing appropriate nutrition, offering emotional support and interaction.
“Kylee was amazing with our little Daisy! It was my first time ever leaving her with someone other than family and she made me feel super comfortable. She responded right away and was super good about checking in. Will definitely be contacting her to watch our pup again!”

About: I have had pets my entire life and can’t imagine being without them. I would love to dote on your pets while you are away so they know they are always loved! I am currently available anytime. That might adjust with some upcoming life changes. Currently Harley Dog and I enjoy morning walks, and evening time brush sessions. I have a partially fenced yard so I would take them to potty and on walks with a leash. Harley and the boys (cats) are dog friendly. Or at least dog neutral since the boys tend to ignore them.

About: I am a dedicated animal lover with a natural ability to connect well with pets. I currently have a 2 pound chihuahua and have experience fostering, whom I thoroughly enjoyed caring for. I am able to care for dogs in the evening for walks when fur parents may not be available to do so. In addition to fostering, I also connect with cats. A friend's skittish cat feels comfortable enough to move about freely and relax in my presence, which reflects my calm and patient approach to animal care. I am currently looking for a part time gigs in the evenings Monday-Friday starting at 5:30pm. In the weekends I am only able to drop in and check on the fur friend and/or go on a walk with me. If there is a consistent fur friend that needs constant care, i would be opened to that. Before going to someone's home, I would ask what are is okay and not. What the fur friend needs to have a good time. Go on walks, on a small hike. Take to a dog park to socialize. Any specific details that I must know.
“Brooklynn was amazing and updated me every day! My puppy had some diarrhea while staying with her and she updated me and even gave some recommendations! I would recommend her a million times and would 100% book with her again! She gave me all the reassurance I needed while on my trip.”

“Absolutely fantastic! Our first time using Rover and I was very hesitant at first. Clasie was amazing! Kept me updated on my dogs care and sent pictures! Definitely will use her again.”

“Mandy is incredible and I appreciate her so much. She takes such good care of my fur babies. She is the only person I feel confident leaving my dogs with. I got lots of pictures to see how much fun they were having while I was on vacation. Thanks for everything Mandy!!”

About: I currently have two dogs of my own who love to play. Watching your dog at my house your dog will feel like part of our family. Here we have a fully fenced backyard. A doggie door and dogs are allowed to snuggle on the bed and on the couch. We do have two small children who love dogs, but I make sure that both the kids and the dogs have their own personal space so no accidents happen. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is fully open Saturday through Tuesday. Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays are usually are family days but I am willing to add your pet into that if needed! We have a fully fenced yard and a doggie door. We have two small children who love dogs yet we understand that personal space is important for both children and dogs and make sure no boundaries are crossed.
“Megan was very professional yet welcoming. My dog had such a good time with Megan, it was hard to get my pup back into my truck to go home. I would recommend Megan and hope she's available to watch my dog in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Haven
Laurie took such good care of my little old man. He's a rescue with a sad history. He really struggles with new sitters, but when I picked him up, he was so calm. She sent me pictures and updates. She has professional protocols for introducing dogs. I will definitely use her again.

Jessica was amazing with our fur babies and we’re very grateful! This was our first experience using Rover and she helped us understand how everything worked and was very communicative throughout our trip. Would be happy to use her again in the future and would def recommend! Thank you Jessica!

Danii is awesome with our dogs! We have left them with her three times now and they are always excited to see her! She sends us pictures and updates and is very good at communicating with us about how they are doing. We no longer have to worry when we leave them because we know they are being well cared for.

Peggy was amazing with my Rusty! She let me drop off his stuff the night before going on vacation so that I didn’t have to worry about rushing to set things up the next morning. She also wonderfully handled him having a seizure during his stay, and timely notified me of it happening. She had no problems giving him his oral medications. She sent pictures and little updates throughout the week. I will absolutely use her services again in the future!

I can’t say enough good things about Ryan. We lucked out when we found him several years ago. He has been our consistent pet sitter for going on four years now and it’s so upsetting that we’re moving because I fully trust my pets in his care. He truly cares about the animals he watches and I know my animals are in the best hands

Morgan was amazing! She was easy to communicate with and took the best care of my golden doodle! She sent pictures regularly and made me feel comfortable at please while our family was away! We were all able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was being well cared for and entertained while we were away! Highly recommend!
