“Kelsey was fantastic! She went over and above with my boys - taking care of their needs but also caring enough to spend a little time winning their hearts. I highly recommend her and plan to have her back again soon!”
“Regan is an awesome sitter! You can tell she is a true animal lover, takes amazing care of my 2 cats, and enjoys her time with them, when I travel. Also, her daily photos and detailed comments she shares are great to read. It is wonderful to know that my fur babies are in her very capable hands. Highly recommend!”
“Paige is amazing!! She was available for a short notice request. She is trustworthy and dependable. We trust she takes excellent care of our Labrador. She communicates well and we really appreciate her!”
About: I haven had dogs in my house and taken care of them since I was 7 years old. I've participated in training classes with my black lab as a puppy, as well as daily dog chores like walking, feeding, and brushing. I also have experience taking care of injured and elderly dogs. Along with caring for my own pets, I've also pet sat for neighbors and friends before. These visits included walks, play time, feeding, brushing, etc. This summer I have a part time nanny job, so I will have plenty of extra time to take care of your fur babies! I will be available weekdays after 4pm and all day on the weekends. I understand that dogs can be hesitant when stranger enter their home, but try to greet new pets slowly and friendly and give them all the sniffs they need.
About: I’ve had various of animals my whole life. I’ve had animals of all scales, from cows & horses, to lizards & ferrets. As well as training various of dogs from all different breeds, I understand your “scary” dog, as well as your sweet little lap dog! Between my previous employment at a boarding facility and my current employment at the animal shelter, i’ve worked and handled many different personality’s and breeds of dogs and cats. Hey! I have a full time job at an animal boarding facility, but I typically only work 4 days a week and it’s usually morning shifts. I’m willing to get up a little earlier or stay up a little later to give your pet some attention. Shoot me a message and I can let you know my hours and we can see if I would be a good fit! I unfortunately can’t have fur babies come to my house, but i’m more than happy to come to you! I will keep your dogs on leash if you don’t have a fenced backyard, unless informed otherwise. I will also bring your pups on walks, I will keep them on leash, and use an extra leash if needed.
About: I love animals so much and it makes me happy to be able to meet new ones. I’ve grown up with all kinds of breeds and played with them. I am a hairstylist! I work evenings 3-8 at my salon Mondays and Thursdays but leave Buffalo around 2. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I work 10-3 but leave around 9. Saturdays I work 9-4:30 but leave around 8. I always like to leave an hour before work to get there on time. My drive back to Buffalo is about 35 mins. If your interested let me know as early as possible so if there is a change in my work hours I can let you know. I have 2 dogs. I of course feed them, bathe them, and sometimes brush their teeth. Both sleep with me every night. I will keep a great eye on your dogs and am more than happy to stop in and let ‘em out. For longer sits I’d love to play with them and am happy to feed them as well.
“What a wonderfully relaxing time we had knowing Laura was taking care of our babies! This was our first Rover experience and I just loved seeing the photos and Laura's Rover cards that included details on how everyone was doing. Laura's pricing is fair, and her communication is excellent. I felt so at ease! Look forward to trusting her with our loved ones again and would recommend her highly to all my friends and family! ❤️”
“Heidi is great! She's patient with our moody and choosy kitty. We appreciate her persistence in trying to get our cat to warm up to her and willingness to continue to take on future bookings. Thank you!”
“Alicia was great!!! She was very communicative, sent lots of photos and updates as well as timely. We would trust her in our home again to care for our babies anytime!!! Highly recommend her for both dogs and cats. Our cat is rather skiddish but warmed up to Alicia right away which says a lot about her <3”
“Thank you, Chasity, for being available on short notice to take care of our 3 kitties! Great to see them come out to greet you instead of hiding, so happy to see that! Great job, Thank you!”

Kelsey is the best!! Our cat Luca loves her so much! Luca had an infection and needed to be given antibiotics and Kelsey came over twice a day, I was nervous leaving her but Kelsey took such amazing care of her so our minds were at ease. She is seriously the best pet sitter there is! Thank you Kelsey!!
What can I say? A lot. Regan first of all is a sweet ,caring person. Upon meeting her for the first time, I knew instantly that she was the one to take care of our cat. I told her he was very shy and would be amazed if he made a showing at all. Well, to my surprise, on day 2 Regan was actually Petting him and day after day, our cat warmed up to her. She has the magic touch. She's very professional and made sure everything we asked of her was done, with pictures and reports. So don't hesitate. I would definitely recommend Regan as your pet sitter as I will be again.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Buffalo on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Buffalo. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
