About: I have always had a pet dog and ever since I was a teenager, I’d dog-sit for family and neighbors. Since college, I’ve been pet-sitting ajd dog walking on a more professional level. I’ve babysat for a few hours, simply for a walk, but have also watched multiple high energy dogs for up to two weeks. I’ve cared for dogs under a year old and up to 13 years old. I’ve always loved dogs and find them very easy to get along with and care for no matter their size, age, or personality. I have also cared for kittens a few weeks old, senior cats, administering medication orally, grooming them if they have long hair etc. Cats have a very different energy than dogs but I enjoy taking care of them just as much as dogs. I am currently in between jobs so I have a lot of free time to care for other dogs, whether it is a short walk or a multi-hour play date, etc. I always follow whatever guidance I am provided by pet parents. This means if you are only comfortable with your dog on a leash or lead while in your yard, I strictly follow that. If there are specific commands to use, certain behavior to watch out for or discourage, particular toys or activities they enjoy, I always follow what information I am given and am always open and communicate well about any issues or concerns that might arise on my end.
“Rachel was very helpful with my two cats and had great communication, and even called to ask if anyone had been in the house between visits when things didn't look the same (the cats had moved a curtain). Her diligence was greatly appreciated. Would certainly hire again.”
About: I’ve been working with animals since before I knew my times tables. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, fish, and more, and I love every minute of it. I’ve participated in training with my dog when she was a puppy, and am able to further use those skills and knowledge to help me care for other’s animals too :) I currently work full time, so morning and dinner time check-ins are easiest for me. Monday- Friday I work until 8:00AM - 5:00PM. Let me know though if you have a weird schedule, we can work something out :) I have a large back yard with plenty of safe space to run. The pups are always supervised, whether on or off leash. I always prefer to meet with a pet before the care period so I and my pets can get to know them :)
“Hannah is the only sitter I trust with my boxer pitbull mix! She is very reliable & has always been patient with my skittish dog. Hannah earned his trust over multiple drop-ins & now he loves her & gets the zoomies when she comes over!”
“From the moment I met Lee I knew that my dogs would be in good hands. He was sending me photos of my dogs every time he went to visit them so I wasn't worried about them at any time. When I returned from my vacation I found my home clean and my dogs well taken care of!! I will definitely hire Lee's services again.”
“Wendy was punctual, communicative and reliable with our last minute request on a holiday. Really grateful for her service and adorable pictures of our dog, Shadow. We will definitely use her in the near future.”
“Chris was wonderful. Responded at the last minute, supported watching our babies with minimum guidance and was attentive to our babies. I would highly recommend Chris!!! THANK YOU CHRIS”
About: I've had 3 cats 2 dogs 2 horses and 3 rabbits in my life time, returning to my original passion for a career. Working towards animal rehab specialist to help pets return home after a serious injury. Dearly fond of my babies, and yours as well! I currently have a ton of free time, in the process of choosing my next steps and courses. Ready whenever you or your fur baby needs me! I will monitor your pets needs closely, as well as take potty samples, give medication and update photos as needed! Your baby is important to me, an eye will be kept on them at all times. If an accident happens I will clean it no issue. Time spent playing with them is important to me so they feel fully enriched as well as the perfect environment to rest while you're away. I'm entirely flexible to their needs.
About: I am 22 years old and have taken care of dogs my whole life. I have experience with puppies- geriatric dogs including giving medication when needed. I am a recent college graduate with open availability. As the job hunt is extremely difficult, I am very flexible to fit you and your animals needs! I currently have 2 small dogs with a fenced in yard and a constant need for cuddles. I feed them twice a day, once for breakfast and once for dinner and they receive allergy vitamins daily.
“Liz is amazing! She was incredibly attentive and caring with our cats and kept us updated throughout the whole process, which really put my mind at ease while I was out of the country. She went the extra mile, and we’re so happy we found her. Thank you, Liz! 💗🐱”
“Jesey checked in on my cat for a week and I couldn't have been happier with his drop-in visits. I appreciated how thorough his Rover Cards were and had great peace of mind knowing my cat was taken care of in my absence. I would definitely hire Jesey again!”
About: Hey there! I’m Milo, a pet sitter of 6 years, and a dog walker since childhood. I have a diverse range of experience with all ages and breeds of dogs, and am confident that I can find a way to work well alongside your pup! Whether a quick check in for a game and a potty break, a 30 minute walk around town, or a few overnights so they never get lonely, I am excited to get to know your furry friends and give them the best day possible! I work part time at a dog daycare, where I am responsible for working with up to 45 dogs at once. This means that I will be able to give your pup corrections in the right way, as well as being able to handle any stubborn, stressed, or scared temperaments. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as high energy or low/stubborn energy. I am not grossed out easily, so any pups with stomach issues are in great hands. Feel free to ask about medication administration if needed as well! I am open to any and all questions, so please reach out so we can make a good match! I am currently a college student working part time, but with close visits I can fit in a walk or potty break almost anytime during the week. Overnights are available Thursday through Sunday, or upon special request. Any scheduling issues please reach out, as my schedule is flexible. I am happy to settle into any type of home, and with the appropriate fenced yard I can play, run, or even just watch from afar to meet your pups needs. I am able to administer medications upon request, and will make sure they are in bed on schedule if I am staying overnight. Overall I am simply happy to adjust and be flexible to meet any of your pups needs.
“This was our first time using Rover.com and Adara worked out great for us and for our dog Ziva. Adara has very good communication and followed through with all arrangements. She was happy to do a meet & greet with us before we hired her. We were very relieved that she was so nice and Ziva liked her immediately. We had to go out of state for a funeral and we couldnt take Ziva. Adara took away the worry we would of had. This was a great first try with Adara and Rover.com. :)”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a West Suffield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in West Suffield choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in West Suffield with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
