Dog Walking Brighton

“Christine has been AMAZING with my two babies. They love her dearly and I truly feel they are safe with her. I knew Christine was a perfect fit when my baby Mia, who’s standoffish at first let Christine pet her and Mia loved it. I’m so happy having Christine as a someone who cares for my babies. Thank you Christine😊”

“Rico is amazing with our two Irish Red & White Setters. As he learned today, Truvy is very adept at scaling fences. Rico was on top of the situation and thwarted her planned escape.”

About: I am a dog groomer so I know how to handle dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments safely. I have worked in kennels with large numbers of dogs as well as grooming salons. Pet care is my entire career! As a dog groomer, I live and breathe dogs and dog safety. I work part time with Rover and part time at a grooming salon. Establishing a good relationship with your pet is very important to me! I will let your dog come to me and take time to get to know them. I understand dog body language and can handle dogs of all sizes and ages for walks and grooming.

About: New to Rover! I have 20+ years, like most of you, taking care of dogs (all ages & size) walking, training & loving. Raised in Rochester & know all the best parks & trails. I have an SUV and don’t mind taking the dogs places if requested. Night shift worker during the week, I make lots of time for my puppy at home and would love to make time for your dog during the day. I’m available all days of the week, unfortunately that doesn’t mean I’m available all the time but can make time each day of the week if necessary. Just reach out, your odds are high that I can help I know how important pets are to everyone’s family and will treat yours like you do at home, or better :) Learning your dogs behavior is a key to success, the more information the better (behavior around dogs, people, children, chewing, barking) to know if they are acting different in any way. I get excited each time I meet new parents of dogs, i wouldn’t trust some nobody with my dog unless I got to know them first, I am in my mid twenties and have lived in pittsford/penfield for most of life, I do not drink if that matters to you, I’d say based off appearance I look pretty clean unless it’s cold out then you may only be seeing what’s visible under my hood or hat. I’m well educated in the do’s and don’ts on what is safe and unsafe for dogs and puppies to accidentally eat. Coming from a family that has dealt with Lyme Disease I take precaution in where my dogs are roaming, and always checking my puppy and past dogs constantly for ticks

“Sari is incredible! My George took an immediate liking to her and has had the best times on his walks. She always sends the best pictures of their time together. So happy to have found her and will continue to use her each week!”

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.

“Rachel went above and beyond to meet our pup’s needs. She was very communicative and so sweet! We trust her with taking care of our fur baby without hesitation”

About: Hi there! My name has since changed to *Romeo* as I am queer :) Ive had experience with all sorts of animals since I was a young! My heart however has always lied with dogs. Ive lived with, trained, and taken care of dogs from age 15. Professionally, I am currently a counselor at Camp Bow Wow! I’ve been working there for over a year now, learning and applying a wide range of skills. In this role I’ve learned some key skills on how to ensure companions are safe and happy: 1. Body language: I observe everything from your dog’s head to tail to minimize reactivity due to human- animal misunderstandings 2. Health indicators: although I’m not a vet, I was trained to recognize irregular symptoms a dog may be displaying such as stool texture and consistency, body temperature, excessive panting and drooling, gum color, etc. Anything your dog may be struggling with from itchy skin to something greater, I’ll notify you right away! 3. Communication: parents love hearing about their babies and seeing them happy and comfortable! By regular communication, this allows me to get clear instructions to follow, assess any changes needed in care or routine, and stay up to date in case of any rapid changes or emergencies. In addition, what sets me apart is my artistic attention to detail, which allows me to adapt to your dogs needs in a creative way. I like to challenge myself by finding ways to stimulate and enrich your dog while you are away! I’m very relaxed, quiet, and easygoing, but also spontaneous and go-with-the-flow should your dog get the zoomies! I’ll get mine out with him :) Lastly, I respect peoples spaces/ privacy and always clean up behind myself after using something in your space. I'd love to give your dog my unconditional love and undivided attention. Your baby is not just a pet, they are our best friends who depend on us. So Relax while you’re away, and leave the fun stuff to me! Looking for regular/ recurring clients :) I currently work part time on weekdays, twice a day for up to 7 hours. This is subject to change within the next few weeks to ensure I have time to House sit efficiently. Please reach out to me with questions about this, and I’d be happy to negotiate! I love being outside, especially in the company of some furry friends. I understand that your dog may either be a nature pet or a couch potato, and I'm able to adapt to your pets needs depending on their personality. I'm clean, quiet, and active when need be. Cleanliness is a priority for me. Cleaning up waste properly and right away is a must, including picking up poop during walks.

About: I'm a NYS Certified Teacher (heavily bg checked & vetted) currently on childcare leave to care for my youngest son. I have a high-energy rescue Pit bull and a grumpy, 20-year-old Russian Tortoise at home in addition to my 2 human kids. I grew up with pets of ALL kinds: dogs, chickens, lizards, snakes, cockatiels, guinea pigs, mice & rats, turtles, frogs & toads, axolotls, a chinchilla, a hedgehog, tons of fish, and more. I'm comfortable caring for both traditional and more exotic pets including reptiles, amphibians, birds and more. I love animals of all types- so much so that I have been a vegetarian since I was 16! Dogs have been my most constant; aside from a few of my years in NYC, I've lived with dogs my whole life! I'm on a leave of absence from my teaching position while I stay at home with my 1-year old. As such, my schedule is quite flexible with a few days' notice. I typically have daytime or evening availability most days. If this is your first booking with Rover, ask me for my promo code for $20 off! Every pet family is different; I allow you to set the tone and pace depending on your and your pets' needs. Like people, certain animals are more affectionate, outgoing and energetic, while others are more reserved and might take time to warm up and build trust and relationships. I am communicative and will send pics/video updates as often as you like!

“Excellent rapport with my nervous doggie, Jenine was able to get her to go the entire half hour (the dog keeps wanting to return) and go potty before returning. Definitely recommend and my dog loves her!”

“Katherine is always on time and is super awesome with our puppy! She’s very knowledgeable and our puppy looks forward to seeing her each time she comes!”

About: I grew up with both dogs and cats and have always felt happiest when surrounded by animals! I have several years of pet-sitting experience caring for both large and small dogs, as well as cats. I enjoy long walks and am happy to follow your pet's usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or simply having company, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care while you're away. I work full-time for the University of Rochester and have a hybrid schedule, so I'm only in the office two days a week (Tuesdays and Wednesdays). The rest of the week, I work from home and have plenty of flexibility to spend quality time with your furry family members! On weekends, my schedule is also very flexible. I enjoy golfing, but it's easy for me to adjust my plans to accommodate each pet's unique needs and routine. My goal is to make sure your pet receives the attention, care, and companionship they deserve while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routines, and preferences, so I take the time to get to know each pet and learn what makes them feel comfortable and secure. I will carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, training, and household rules to ensure consistency while you're away. While I love giving pets plenty of affection and attention, I also respect their boundaries and individual needs. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels cared for and at home.

About: Caring for animals isn’t just my job it’s something I genuinely love. I have over 10 years of experience and treat every pet like family. I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them attention, I’m there for them. I always keep you updated with messages and photos so you never have to worry. I’d be thrilled to connect with you! Pet care is my full-time routine, so my days are built around my clients and their pets. I plan everything around walks, drop-ins, and overnights to make sure each pet gets the attention, care, and consistency they need. I always try to stick to their normal routine feeding, walks, playtime, and anything specific you’d like me to do. For house sitting, I stay overnight and spend the majority of my time there so your pet feels comfortable and not alone. I may be in and out during the day for other scheduled visits, but I’m there most of the time and always make sure your pet is well taken care of. I make sure they’re fed on time, get enough exercise, and get lots of love and attention. My routine is centered around providing safe, reliable care for drop-ins, dog walking, and overnight stays. When caring for pets in your home, I follow their routine closely so they feel comfortable and at ease in their own space. I create a calm, trusting environment and treat your home with the same respect as my own. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in, or an overnight, I make sure your pup gets the right mix of exercise, attention, and care. I handle feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. During overnights, I stay the majority of the time so your pet has consistency, safety, and company. I’m very attentive, keep things clean and tidy, and send regular updates and photos so you always feel at ease.

“Joey was well communicative and took some fantastic photos of our pup to enjoy while we were away! I’m looking forward to booking him again soon.”

“Hannah showed up when she said she would. She also communicates with me in a timely fashion. Her rates are reasonable and my dogs looked happy to walk with her in their pictures. I will definitely use her services again.”

About: Have a puppy? I’m well-versed in puppy pee pads and the fun game of find the poop. Have an older dog? A slow meander or a quick circle around the yard and sit on the front porch are just as enjoyable as a fast paced walk. How about a bully breed? I’m used to the house hippo slamming into you when you enter the door. We have one of our own. Ever had your knees taken out from under you because a chimpmunk ran by? I have. Ever wrestle a house hippo afraid of water into a tub? Yup. That’s me. Bad listener? We’ve got one of those. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members. …and, yes, I always pick up the poo 🤓 I work from home with flexible hours, so I’m available during the days, in the evenings, and over the weekends. I am only able to take kid and pet friendly pets into my home, but am able to get to yours. It all depends on a pet’s need and the owner’s preferences. if they need exercise during the day or in the evenings we can take walks or play outside. If there is a mess, you can trust I’ll clean it up. Poop? I got it. Outside playtime? Absolutely. I can stop by once or several times a day depending on your pet’s needs.

“Nicole does an amazing job. Our dog Paisley is calm and attentive with her. We feel so at peace when we go away, knowing Nicole is caring for Paisley.”

“Stephan has been great!! Wonderful communication on his schedule and status of our pet. We could tell right away that Stephan is an animal lover 😀”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 4 years old, and recently rescued a dog of my own. I began training and caring for her myself starting when she was 9 weeks old. I am very comfortable around dogs no matter what size. I have experience I with positive reinforcement training for puppies as well. I employed full time but my schedule varies based on the day. My weekends are usually very open, allowing me to provide services at almost any time on Saturdays and Sundays! I value positive reinforcement for dogs and will always put the safety and health of your dog first. I will care for the needs of your dog and make sure they are comfortable and happy.

“Hannah is excellent! She reliable, on time, and our golden boy loves her! Highly recommend for any needs!”
