“Meaghan was absolutely amazing with our kitties! We have a spicy gal who doesn't tolerate strangers well, and she waltzed right up to Meaghan and rubbed on her! Meaghan is the cat whisperer, and takes great photos! Would highly recommend!”
“Alicia was the best sitter ever! so lucky to have found her. She went above and beyond to spend time with our needy orange boy. Even the cats who hate strangers came out. Alicia is very knowledgeable and her extensive education and many years of experience arw apparent. She's so professional and trustworthy. Will book with her again!”
About: I worked at a dog daycare/kennel for 3+ years providing medical attention, training, and overseeing multiple dogs at a time. I have been trained to read dog body language in order to read moods and behaviors I am working full-time (fully-remote) and am excited to be given the opportunity to work with you and your pets! I’m here whenever you need someone to help with your animals I have experience with a wide variety of dog types with different needs. My professional experience with dogs has trained me to handle a range of pet needs and accommodations
“Callie was great! She was super prompt and stayed the entire time(I’ve had other sitters not so this was extra appreciated) and June seemed happy in all the pics! Would recommend and use again!!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up with pets since the age of 5, I’ve gained experience caring for dogs, cats, hamsters, lizards, turtles, and fish. Dogs and cats have been a part of my life for most of my years, and today I’m a proud cat mom to two adorable cats: Savannah (9) and Maeve (3). I’ve always loved being around animals and understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m attentive to detail, reliable, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. While I plan to welcome a dog into my own family in the near future, I’d love the opportunity to spend time caring for and playing with your pup in the meantime! Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a dependable person to stick to their routine, I’m happy to help and will care for them as if they were my own. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to easily fit pet care into my day. I’m available for drop-ins before 8am, during my lunch hour for midday check-ins, and consistently after 4:30pm once my workday ends. This flexibility allows me to maintain a reliable routine for your cat, whether they need morning feedings, litter box care, playtime, medication, or simply companionship throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is always safety, trust, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine so they feel secure and comfortable while you’re away. I follow all instructions exactly as provided, including feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, medications, and any specific household rules. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and needs so I can interact with them in a way that feels familiar and stress-free. I treat every home with respect and care, making sure doors are securely closed, routines are followed consistently, and your space is left clean and as you left it. I’m mindful of safety at all times—watching for any potential hazards, ensuring pets are secure before leaving, and double-checking everything before I go. Trust is extremely important to me. I understand how personal it is to let someone into your home and care for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I aim to communicate clearly and consistently, giving updates as needed so you always feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Would I book Haley again? I already have! Haley is fantastic, she went above and beyond my expectations! Haley took AMAZING care of our three senior dogs, who have special needs. One of my dogs needs to have his bladder expressed due to a spinal injury, Haley went out of her way to learn how to express his bladder and ensure his comfort. Haley gave the dogs ample outdoor time, shared photos and detailed report cards throughout the day which gave us peace of mind. You can tell when your dogs had their basic needs met vs. when they also had enrichment (play time, cuddles, etc.), my dogs clearly had enrichment with Haley taking care of them. The dogs were happy and content when we returned home, they hardly missed us! Cannot recommend Haley highly enough.”
“Ashley was phenomenal!! My circumstances were so last minute and she was so accommodating and flexible to help. She checked in daily with all the updates and great photos to keep me included in their day to day. My dogs had a wonderful time with her and I would absolutely love to use her services in the future and will hands down be recommending her to others. Thank you!”
“Emma has been a godsend helping with my senior dog while I was out of town. She was very patient, followed detailed instructions, and genuinely concerned for Mitzi's wellbeing. 100% recommend and would book with her again.”
About: I grew up with a variety of animals all around me, but I have especial experience with dogs and cats. I am a cat mama of 1 sweet, docile senior kitty. I am a 1st year medical student at the Jacobs School of Medicine, and I would love to take care of the furry friends in my new community! I am a full-time medical student. My first priority when I return home is my sweet old kitty, and your pet would join him in that spot as well! I am prompt to give abundant attention and play, and I follow a diligent feeding schedule. My cat is very socialized (grew up in a household of 7 people and 4 other cats/dogs), and he is fully up-to-date on his vaccinations. I love animals and would love to give a little extra care to others’ fur babies when I can! The safety and wellbeing of my cat is my number one priority, and I treat all animals to this same standard. I love showering my cat with attention, and I of course would pour my love into your pet as well. I am extremely mindful of respecting animals’ boundaries as well, and playing to the tune that is right for them. I love to embrace the unique animal personalities which come my way, and I am happy to accommodate pet needs as they present!
About: Hi I'm April and I am ready to sit your pet. I have had pets all my life and my own dogs for more than 20 years. I have 4 pets -2 dogs and 2 cats - whom get along with each other and other dogs. My large yard is fenced in and is perfect for playing fetch. I care for my children's dogs when the come to town. Sometimes my house has 5 dogs with no issues at all. I work during the week but my weekends are usually spent playing with my pets. I can do pet sitting, boarding or just visiting. My children are all grown so my pets have become my children and I will treat your pet the same way.
“Isabella was so great with Sunny! She was available on short notice for a couple of drop in visits the next day. Isabella was beyond great! She sent multiple pictures, and provided updates so we knew Sunny was in good hands.”
About: I am a full-time zoo keeper, so it is in my nature to take care of animals. I have also worked in a vets office, where I’ve had to administer medications, even insulin. I am very comfortable with doing any training that you want kept up with. I currently work full-time, but I am able to be there on my weekends all day, or be back at your house right after work for the rest of the day! I can do all of the basics, while also keeping up with any training you may need me to do. I can make sure your pets get all the exercise and attention they need. I will follow any instruction you give, if you like them out of certain areas or if they need to be crated when no one is home.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cheektowaga
Kara was great with my beagle! We set up a meet and greet that went well! She helped us out when our other pet sitter had a conflict. There was a small miscommunication about the 1st arrival time but was quickly corrected. She did 2 drop in visits on a Saturday and spent an hour each time. Wore my baby out on the short walks and my pup slept great. Kara is very responsive and loving. Would definitely use her again!
My babies are typically not too comfortable with people they do not know. Tatyjana Communicated with me that the dogs went under the bed but did not give up. She said she was trying to get them to warm up to her and they did. We will definitely have her back again.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cheektowaga stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Cheektowaga choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Cheektowaga with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
