“This was our first time leaving our cats with a sitter, and it was a wonderful experience. From the meet-and-greet, we felt she was a perfect match. She followed our instructions carefully and sent daily updates. We are extremely pleased with her care and will definitely contact her again for any future pet sitting.”

“Shannon is wonderful with our two very shy cats. We always feel good knowing that she is taking care of them when we are away. Will definitely ask her to watch them again in the future.”

“Carissa is the best of the best!! She treated our two cats like they were her own while we were away. Her communication was great and we came home to a clean house and two well cared for babies. Highly recommend!!”

“Kara was wonderful! It was my first time using Rover for cat drop-ins and she made the whole process stress-free. She was very gentle and understanding when it came to dealing with my shy boy. She was very professional and quick to respond, as well. I'll definitely reach out to Kara again if I need another sitting. Thanks so much!”

“Robyn was very punctual and sent timely updates after each visit. I knew our boy was in good hands in her care. I would absolutely work with Robyn again for my large breed guardian dog. Thank you Robyn”

“Vincent was excellent! It was our first time booking Vincent, and he even dropped by before our trip to meet Buster and learn about our routines. We had Vincent stop by several times throughout the day and the communication was amazing. He sent us pictures of our dog, Buster, out in the yard, on a walk or two, etc. Our dog was well taken care of and loved while we were away!”

“Colleen was great over the weekend my dog ended up being sick witn pneumonia and she sent messages and pics while I was at work- it’s nice to have a reliable person to check in on my dogs when I can’t be at home. I plan on using her again for sure.”

About: My name is Jess and I’m new(ish) to Broome County! I work for the county have my degree in Criminal Justice. I’ve previously worked with Rover in Denver, Colorado so this isn’t my first go-around! I've grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and now have 2 cats of my own! My mother was also a vet tech for several years and taught me how to properly interact with dogs and cats to make them feel safe and trusting in my care! It's also helpful to have her knowledge handy in case anything arises with your beloved pet that you or I may be concerned about.

I want to ensure you and your pet are as comfortable with my presence as possible! Please let me know of any and all rules/routines/ expectations so I can follow them accordingly!
“Lindsay is amazing. She always goes above and beyond with care. I needed to adjust one of my drop-in visits while I was away, and she worked with me to make sure Josie still received the very best care. Great communication. My cat can be shy when new people come over or if she feels likes something's up and will sometimes hide in those cases. She requires an inhaler due to a medical condition, so I worried this could be an issue if she hid. It turns out that I had nothing to worry about as I received many pictures of Josie in Lindsay's looking happy as can be. It means a lot to me to have a sitter that I trust that my cat also likes.”


“Nicole was responsive, friendly, and easy to work with. It was our first time leaving the cats longer than a day or two, so we were nervous but Nicole made everything so easy. Thanks again!”

About: I've had experience with an assortment of animals for a large part of my life. I volunteered an animal shelter in Scottsville, NY for about two years walking dogs of every size and taking care of cats. I have also housed two large German Shepherds and three Dachshunds, both of which are very demanding breeds. I currently reside in Owego, NY, and I work part-time in Endicott, NY Monday through Wednesday from 8AM to 5PM. I may provide brief surfaces on evenings these days, such as a walk or stop-in. Any other day is fair game. Per the restrictions of my apartment complex, I won't be able to care for or bring pets in my home. However, I would be sure to respect any client's home I may enter.
