“Leslie consistently sends updates and photos with what's going on, making it such a relief when having to travel knowing my pup is being well cared for. I appreciate her care and consideration!”
About: Lots of experience with dogs; grew up with a dog and have one now. Dog mom to Milo, my 8-year-old labradoodle. We have a couple years experience volunteering as a foster dog mom/family for a dog rescue when we lived in NC. Milo loves to play and is great with other dogs whether they want to play or need some space. I work from home. I am able to provide meals on your schedule and am around to let the dogs out regularly. I’m not usually home from the house for long when I leave. Dog-friendly house and yard. I have a fenced yard and am in a nice walkable neighborhood in case your pup likes to walk as much as mine. My dining room/back entrance is dog proof and can be gated off. And my couch has covers and there are multiple dog beds throughout my house.
“Thomas was amazing! He sent lots of pictures of fun adventures each day, and was flexible with us when our flight got delayed and we had to change when we were picking our dog up.”
“This is a great family home for my dog -- she loved boarding here. Aaron take all your special needs and indulgences into consideration and provides plenty of play opportunities. Just what my little doodle needs!”
About: Before moving to the Rochester area, I worked at Windy City Paws in Chicago, one of the top pet sitting/dog walking agencies in the city. My daily schedule included several walks and day care check-ins, including cats. I have a 12 year old dachshund with some special medical needs, so I am a pro at senior dog care and giving medications! I am currently a stay at home wife and dog mom, so your pet will be my main focus during the day! I am happy to take care of them while you work or while you travel. I live in an apartment complex that is very safe for walks. There are a lot of dogs living here so there is sure to be plenty to sniff! I'm also happy to take your dog to the park for walks (always on leash) if you are comfortable.
“This was the first time Sunny was cared for outside his own surroundings and his first time meeting a dog. Maria was very thoughtful about Sunny’s firsts. Sunny is an investigator and enjoyed all the opportunities for adventure with Maria and her family. Maria sent photos and messages throughout the week, which we appreciated. When we need another boarding opportunity we will absolutely contact Maria.”
About: As a man with a strong love and passion for dogs, I have taken a lot of time to grow my understanding and experience working with these beautiful creatures many call our best friends! My experiences are: -Working at suburban animal hospital - years working at doggy daycare/ training facility’s - studied at animal behavior college for canine obedience training -dabbles in canine fitness - dabbles in canine holistic health and nutrition. I am currently doing pet care as a part time job but as my other endeavors of landscaping and martial arts is flexible, I would love to make a career out of my passion! When your Pets are in my care I want to make there time as fun and stress free as can be. To do that I make sure to have a full understanding of your pets behavior, triggers, fears, and possible injuries to safely modify my care to fit each individual pets needs. You tell me your home boundaries for your pets and I will make sure they are followed the same way you do when your home!
“5 stars. Kimberly got back to us right away when we first inquired, flexible with our drop off and pick up times, and sent us several pictures and brief updates while we were away. When I picked Buddy up after his week-long stay he was happy and content - like he just had a great playdate. When we inquired, we found out the holiday rate was different from the posted rate - it would be good to have that out there.”
“Maribeth took loving care of my four-legged girl while we took our daughter to college. She sent updates and pictures. I will leave my girl with Maribeth any time. Highly recommend!”
About: We have a secure fenced backyard for supervised play and potty breaks. Dog hangout and sleep in the living room so they are always near people and part of the home. I’ve raised my own dog from a 2-month-old fluffball into a grown German Shepherd, which has given me firsthand experience caring for dogs through different stages of life. I also trained him to be friendly with my 3 cats, so I understand the patience and socialization it takes to help dogs & cats feel safe, comfortable, and happy at home. Available to check in on pet care every 2-4h daily on weekdays and weekends. I’m able to plan my day around walks, drop-ins, playtime, and drop ins. Your fluffy friend will stay in a clean, calm house with a secure fenced backyard for safe potty breaks and supervised outdoor time. Inside, I have extra rooms that can be used to create separate space when needed. Safety and comfort come first!
“Brittani and Dylan took really good care of my dog and have sent pictures and updates regularly. They were also very flexible with drop-off and pick-up which I appreciated. Would recommend them happily to anyone who needs their fury friend watched for.”
About: I come from a family who has always had multiple pets at a time, with anywhere from 3 to 10 foster dogs under our care at any given time! I’ve cared for a wide range of dogs from smaller poodles and Shih tzus to much larger retrievers, border collies, and German shepherds. I have experience with cats as well, but much more lengthy experience taking care of dogs of different sizes and temperaments :) I am a med student so my schedule varies in flexibility but I live in a very walkable area and typically spend a lot of time at home studying! I love taking long walks in between classes and studying and would love to bring a furry friend along with me :) As I do have to be in classes some days for a few hours (no more than 3-4 at a time), i am better boarding pets who can be left alone for a couple hours. As for my home, I have plenty of space for them to run around freely.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Brighton
Marie was wonderful sitting for my dog. She met with me and sat with him for some time alone so he could get aquainted with her before we booked with her. She showed us where he would be staying in her home and made sure we were all comfortable with the arrangement. Marie took great care in getting my dog plenty of exercise while we were away and sent comments and photos throughout the week. She understands dog behavior well and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Marie while I was away. I would highly recommend her!
Brandon P boarded our dog Salvatore and did not disappoint! We were updated daily with a photo and was told about their daily adventures! When we met up before the stay, Brandon asked important questions about Sal’s care and traits. Was also impressed with his friendliness and attention to detail. I would recommend Brandon to anyone who wants great service!
Alexandra and her family took great care of my dog, Hiccup, while we were across the country. Very communicative, and flexible, including with a last minute flight delay that caused a late night pick up. They sent photos and videos and made sure to ask tons of clarification questions! We would definitely recommend.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Brighton can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Brighton home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Brighton.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brighton. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
You and your Brighton sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NY ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
