“Crystal is amazing! She was warm and kind and my fur babies were very well taken care of! The best part - she communicated updates and sent photos very regularly which is what I had asked for. I was very confident that my babies were in loving and caring hands! I highly recommend Crystal!”

“This was our third trip with Nicole staying with our dog Buster, and we could not be happier with her! Buster is a sweet and friendly dog, but he has stomach problems and he also barks a lot. Nicole handles all of this beautifully. I can see on her photos that she has developed quite a relationship with Buster! He likes her and he is his crazy self with her! It is great to leave for a trip with such confidence in a pet sitter!”

“Claire is absolutely the best dog sitter you could find. We came home from an extended trip to find out senior dog calm and happy after Claire’s overnight stays at our home. Claire sent photos, videos and text updates daily which were lovely and reassuring.”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, with experience caring for breeds of all sizes. I have always had a natural ability to connect with dogs and have been comfortable handling and caring for them from a young age. Additionally, I have experience house-sitting and providing care for dogs belonging to coworkers, friends, and family members. My lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs allow me to provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care for every dog I look after. I am currently playing junior hockey, with practices scheduled Monday through Thursday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Outside of those hours, I am fully available to provide attentive and reliable care for your dogs. My availability on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays varies depending on my hockey schedule, but I am happy to coordinate in advance to find a time that works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while giving each dog plenty of attention, affection, and exercise suited to their needs. Having grown up around dogs of all sizes, I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs. I strive to make every pet feel comfortable, secure, and loved while their owner is away. I also keep owners updated on how their pets are doing for added peace of mind.
“Oscar is a good choice for house sitter. He makes the effort to put us at ease during our 10 day vacation. When there was a problem with our dog getting out of the yard while he was at class, he patched the hole in the fence our "escape artist" used to get out. More pictures and text would be better, but we had confidence in him that everything was being taken care of.”

“Shannon is a dream sitter for my two dogs! She showered them with love, walks and treats. She sent regular updates and pictures. She went above and beyond when my one pup got a tummy ache to make sure she was okay. I highly recommend!”

“Annabelle was an excellent match for my 15 year old Spaniel. She was conscientious, neat and tidy (she stayed overnight), reliable and trustworthy. My dog’s age brings challenges (vision and hearing issues) yet Annabelle never skipped a beat. I was nervous about leaving my dog with a stranger but it worked fine.”

About: I have had a dog myself for 10 years now and he has been a blessing for me to really learn how dogs think. Being able to take of him for the last 10 years has given me the experience I need to be able to take care of your pet as well. I currently work full time but I do have the flexibility to go and check on your pet during the day if you are local to me or else I am free after 4pm during the week. I am also free on the weekends from 8am - 8pm. I would also be available for overnight boarding at your home. I always make sure they feel safe, loved and comfortable in their familiar environment. I stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding times, walks and playtime and any specific care instructions you provide as I know that some dogs are very sensitive to any change. I can also provide daily photos or videos so you know they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Nina did SUCH a wonderful job stepping in last minute to watch my pups! Attentive and responsive; everything a pet owner needs to have peace of mind when being away from their dogs! So grateful for her kindness and great level of care she provided to my pups. Thanks again!!”

About: I've been around and had dogs/cats my entire life and have always had a genuine love for animals. Growing up with dogs has helped me understand the importance of patience, consistency, and providing a safe, loving environment. I have 3 years of hands-on pet care experience, including recently raising two Maltese brothers and staying actively involved in their daily care and well-being. Through this experience, I've learned the importance of maintaining routines, giving each dog individual attention, and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved. I treat every animal as if they were my own and want every pet parent to feel confident knowing their furry family member is in caring, dependable hands! Pet sitting is something I'm excited to incorporate into my weekly routine because caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I'm committed to being reliable, flexible, and making sure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I would plan my schedule around each booking to ensure I can maintain their usual routines, including walks, feeding times, playtime, and companionship. I also understand the importance of communication with pet parents and would provide updates and photos to help them feel comfortable while they're away. Having grown up around dogs and recently caring for two Maltese brothers, I understand how important it is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I would prioritize their individual needs, follow their established routines, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and playtime. In a client's home, I would respect their space and follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications if needed and appropriate, and general care. My goal is to help every pet feel secure and comfortable while giving their owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being well cared for.

About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs—young, old, big, small, pullers, you name it. I will take care of your pets as I do my own. I work from home, so I’m available around the clock for taking care of your pets. I live in the Fairfield County area, so I’m available to help you out with your pets! I live in a house with roommates, but I have a floor to myself. I have a cat at home, so I can provide a feline companion during boardings.
“Alison watched our dog for the day and was very communicative and took care of all of his needs! This was her first time sitting for us and it was a bit of a last minute request - but we’ll definitely be booking her in the future!”

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and now my love has grown even more. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for friends and family. I deal a lot with active dogs since I have two Siberian husky of my own and a Mutt mix. Im currently working part time-usually available every mornings, mid day depending on the week, weekends available all day once booked in advance sometimes flexible if booked late, and definitely available overnight at anytime. I can do anywhere in Greenwich, Stamford, Darien, Norwalk, Westport and Southport. I will treat your furry pets as they are like mine. I will communicate with you- if the dogs need extra attention, medicine, more walks, take them to their favorite place I will do it. I will always be transparent with you. I want your pets to not be stress when you leave the house - I will be another best friend that they can play with.
“Laura took our 3 year old Corgi Jack into her home and did an incredible job taking care of him. She is so responsive and a natural with dogs. She treated him like her own and sent us updates and pictures several times a day. She is very active and took Jack on long walks and even introduced him successfully to another dog he became friends with while we were away. We will trust Laura with all of our dog sitting needs in the future and would recommend her to anyone!”


“Kelly did a great job taking care of our two cats! Followed instructions and easy to communicate with. Booked her last minute and it worked out great. Will definitely be using her in the future to take care of our girl :)”

“First time booking Bri and have already booked her again. She’s so kind with my dog Syd and was very attentive to her needs. And Syd loved her! When Bri was leaving, my dog was ready to leave with her!”

“Gabriella is incredibly sweet & clearly loves working with pets. She was respectful of my place and took care of everything we talked about (walk, potty schedule, etc.) not to mention my dog took to her immediately! Will absolutely be working with her going forward.”
“Carrigan took great care of Sadie. She was on time and in touch with us regularly while we were away. Sadie was happy to see us and Sadie was well taken care of in our absence. I recommend her and we will re-book with her next time we are away.”

About: I have several years of experience caring for both pets and children. While working as a nanny for multiple families, I was also responsible for their dogs, making sure they were well-fed, exercised, and happy. This gave me hands-on experience with daily walks, playtime, and maintaining routines. At home, I am a proud cat owner, so I also understand the unique needs of cats and how to provide them with the right care and attention. I am patient, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether it’s walking a dog, keeping a pet company, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. have a very flexible schedule. Sunday Mondays and Tuesdays I am super available. Most mornings before 10 am I’m free and I sometimes work from home. My schedule is adjustable, I can often adapt to different needs during the week. The care I provide always depends on each pet parent’s instructions, since every animal has unique needs and routines. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them regular walks, fresh food and water, playtime, and lots of attention. Safety is always my first priority whether that means keeping doors secured, watching carefully on walks, or following special feeding instructions. I also keep the home environment tidy and respectful, so pet parents can feel fully at ease while they are away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Side
Nicole recently took care of our dog Buster for a week. She has stayed with Buster many times, and it's always a great experience. She sends videos or photos daily, along with an update. Nicole is easy to reach if we have any questions. We do not worry about Buster while she is there, and we will not plan a trip unless Nicole is available!

Allison did a great job taking care of our senior dog, Bob Barker. It was our first time working with someone through Rover, and very happy we did. She stopped by to meet him before our trip and walk through his routine, then communicated with us during the trip. Bob and the house were in great shape and we look forward to booking with Allison again this month when we're out of town for another weekend.

After a last minute cancellation Crystal came in like a super hero! She had valid concerns with our older girl and worked with us via messenges to make sure she eats. Handled all the extra care of 3 dogs and one with many health issues. Had a few other thing pop up and she handled like a pro. 10/10 would recommend and if needed I will get her again!!!

Janine was the BEST! She took excellent care of the dogs - she genuinely loves dogs. I hate to leave my dogs with anyone, but they are so happy with Janine it made my trip possible. I didn’t worry for a second. She also took excellent care of the house. I will only ever leave them with Janine from now on.
Nicole did an amazing job at watching our dog Georgi overnight in our home. It was our first time leaving him overnight and we felt completely comfortable and at ease knowing Nicole was there with him. She communicated a lot throughout her time in our home with how things were going and included many pictures. She was polite to our space and kept it clean when she left. We would definitely recommend her and will be rebooking in the future!

Matt cared for my 10 month-old puppy this past weekend, and was absolutely incredible. He was kind, communicative, punctual, and took great care of my (high energy!) pup and of our home. I highly recommend working with Matt if you’re looking for someone to look after your furry friend. He’s wonderful!

Leca once again took excellent care of our cat and home. Our shy girl warmed up SO quickly thanks to Leca’s cat whisperer energy and therefore was able to enjoy lots of pets, brushing sessions, and playtime. Leca went above and beyond by watering our outdoor plants every day so our tomatoes didn’t die in the hot and humid weather. She is all-around an excellent sitter whom we recommend highly!

Emma was fantastic to work with from start to finish. We came home to find the house exactly as we left it, and she sent plenty of updates with pictures throughout our stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was incredibly responsive and responsible the entire time. We had zero hesitation leaving our girls in her care, and it was clear they made a new friend — they were so happy with her. Highly recommend!

I am simply amazed at the care that Chris gave to my 2 havanese dogs and 2 kitty’s. It was beyond my expectations. Not only is he a fabulous person himself but he takes care of not only your pets but your home as well. Five stars does not explain his level of service. 10000 out of 10. Chris is truly one of a kind. He is simply fantastic ❤️
