1. Lauren L.


“I feel so lucky to have found Lauren! She is kind, reliable, and accommodating. My pup is always so happy on the days she gets to see Lauren for a walk. 🐾”




2. Lorie S.


“Lorie graciously responded to my last minute dog-walking request. She was on time, listened to all my concerns and instructions, and she kept me updated with adorable photos! My larger dog can be a bit difficult to focus on walks, but Lorie had no problem taking her out. She clearly has experience with all kinds of canines given how adeptly she handled my two very different pups. I'm incredibly happy I was able to find Lorie because it's not every day I trust someone with my dogs. I fully intend on using her services again in the future and I can't recommend her enough!”


3. Anika J.

“Anika is a wonderful dog walker. My 9 month old miniature poodle Russet, who just joined our family, and who is scared of meeting new people, quickly got to know Anika, thanks to her calm demeanor and skills around skittish dogs. Anika came reliably and communicates with us regularly. It was a stressful first week with a puppy for me, trying to manage the puppy’s needs while also working full time. Anika made this week happen for me. I felt Russet was getting the care he needed mid-day when Anika took him for a walk and I was able to focus on my work with a untroubled heart over leaving a puppy home for an extended period of time.”


4. Noah M.

“Noah was excellent - took great care of our pup on her walk and kept us well informed the whole time! We would definitely use Noah again for future dog walks!”


5. Steven W.

“Steven is amazing with my dogs! Super attentive and thoughtful, offers to wipe their feet when muddy and is always on time. Highly recommend!”


6. Nicole I.
About: I have always loved animals. I’ve had quite a few pets in my life (cats, rodents, reptiles, and fish) and have always loved caring for them. Right now I have three cats but no dogs, unfortunately I can’t have my own right now. The dog I listed as mine is my family dog that I care for when I visit back home (Rico). I chose Rover because I felt it was a good way to still have dogs (and other animals) in my life and to help people in my neighborhood. I’d treat your pets as if they were my own! Please feel free to contact me at any point before, during, or after I watch your pup(or cat!). I am more than willing to answer any questions, or address any concerns you may have. If you would like to schedule a meet and greet prior to me caring for your pet, I’d be happy to arrange that. *** Please keep in mind the distance of commute to you when looking to book services with me. I am located in Dryden, with the majority of my clients in Ithaca. If you are more than 15 miles out, we can still discuss care but typically I’ll only accept house bookings if you’re far out*** ***Please consider leaving a tip and/or review if you’re pleased with the services provided! Rover takes 20% of my earnings as a fee. Any tips/reviews received allows me to continue providing services!*Thank you in advance!** I want to give your fur babies the best treatment possible. I just ask that you please let me know if there are any specific things they may need! Thank you! I currently am not working as I am taking a bit of a break. I am available most times and days, just let me know!! I care for your pets as if they were my own. I don’t typically pet sit in my own home as I have 3 cats.


7. John O.
About: I grew up with big dogs and currently have an 11-year-old black lab mix. I know how to get a puppy to go outside, and I know how to stimulate a senior dog that can't go on long walks. I would love to meet your dog and make them as comfortable as they can be! Your dog will be spending a great deal of time with me and Brisco, as we're both home during the workday! We like to go on long walks in the middle of the day and hang out outside enjoying the sunshine. We have a great deal of space for the dog to walk around inside, and a fenced in backyard for them to explore. We also have access to a creek in the 14 acre Christmas tree farm behind our home, where they can go on long walks on a leash with us and Brisco!


8. Jessica C.
“I have known Jessica for many years. She is a wonderful person always friendly and very trustworthy. She did a great job caring for my 3 dogs and 2 cats and has also cared for the pets of my friends and family. Jessica was able to walk, watch and feed all my pets including my big German shepherd with no problems. She is kind. Patient and gentle and animals love her. I highly recommend her for anyone in need of help caring for their furry friends.”


9. Georgia V.

“Georgia is wonderful with our pup Vinnie ? He loves playing with her dog, Wilma, who one of the friendliest pups we have ever met! Our pup can be pretty high energy, and isn't completely socialized yet but that doesn't even phase Georgia. She and Wilma handle him with grace. On-time, communicative and very receptive to our pups needs. Would recommend Georgia to anyone for their critter care!”


10. Madison W.
“Maddy did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Rudy! She was attentive, kind, and made sure he was happy and well-loved while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for better care—Rudy adored her!”


11. Heather D.

“Heather is a responsive and considerate professional.”


12. Sarah S.

“I feel like I hit the jackpot with Sarah as my dog-walker! She has a flexible work schedule and she’s a runner! She sent me pictures of her walking and having fun playtime inside with my young dog and he slept like a baby after spending time with her! I will definitely be booking with her again! I highly recommend her!”


13. Paul K.
“I knew Paul would be an amazing pet sitter the minute he entered the house...both the cat and dog ran right up to him wagging their tails. During our intro interview he asked all of the right questions...how does your dog like to be picked up,questions about their food,do they like belly rubs. Of course! While I was on vacation he sent photos of the pets at play and relaxing. Paul is a sweetheart of a person himself and I would totally trust my fur babies in his care.”


14. William B.
“William (Bill) is great with animals. He cares for our own three dogs as well as helps me take care of animals I sit for on Rover. He gets along great with dogs, cats, and even has experience with pigs! He loves playing with animals and giving them lots of love to make them feel welcomed and safe.”


15. Kait W.


“Kait is awesome!! I am a teacher and she is always available when I have to stay after for work to walk Rue. She noticed she had goopy eyes and gave her a warm compress as well as took awesome photos! I don’t trust many with my fur baby; but I highly recommend Kait!! Thank you!!”


16. Claudia A.

“Our pets took to her right away!”


17. Allie R.

“Allie has been beyond wonderful!! She has been coming mid day to give our puppy some walks and some quality time!! She really makes our day go so much better and has been taking away some of the stress away!! We couldn't do it without her!! 1000 percent recommended!!”


18. Michelle N.
“Michelle is a great pet sitter. She has sat for us multiple times and takes great care of our cat. She always made sure he had fresh water, food, and a clean litter box. She also played with him and gave him lots of attention. I think our cat misses Michelle more than he missed us when we were away.”


19. Jae R.

“Super impressed with Jae. Our dog and housing can be a bit complicated and she handled everything like a real pro. Highly recommended”


20. Noah D.
“Noah cared for my large dog and three cats responsibly and lovingly for three weeks. He's an excellent caregiver with attention to detail, great communication, and a big heart. Noah is devoted to the happiness of animals. You can rest easy knowing your furry family is in his care.”
