“Our cat, Chumley, took to Madison right away. She has a wonderful kind and loving energy. We felt very comfortable having Madison come into our home while we were away. Madison sent us the cutest picture of Chumley while visiting with him. We are very pleased with her service and highly recommend her! Thank you Madison!!!”


About: I have walked dogs at the shelter, cared for family’s and friend’s cats and dogs, and worked at a vet. I grew up with 4 dogs, 1 cat, and 3 birds. I will keep you updated on everything that happens so you have a peace of mind. I am willing to take the dog to the park or follow any specific instructions. I am flexible with scheduling; we can work out a time that is convenient for you! I look forward to working with you to hanging out with your best buddy!
“Maddy was great coming in daily to check on our three kitties. It was a great peace of mind knowing she was checking on them (and cleaning all their poo-I’m sure there was a lot of poo) and that she lives so close. We will definitely utilize Maddy again whenever we are out of town.”

About: I have been taking care of all kinds of animals since I could walk. My mom works at an animal shelter and would bring home foster pets all the time. From little bottle babies, to big dogs. I currently have 3 cats, Moose, Vanilla, and Lightning, and 1 dog, Harley. I am very responsible and am trusted by many friends, family, and neighbors to care for their pets. I am comfortable with any personalities , behaviors and sizes. Experienced with providing some medical care like giving meds, creams, and injury care. I work around 30-40 hours a week, but they are flexible. I have time to stop by in the mornings before 7am, afternoons between 2 and 3, nights after 9 I am very trustworthy with handling house keys, keeping you pretty environment clean, and following specific instructions. I will keep my word of showing up for scheduled visits
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 7 years old. I trained 2 Shitzus and 1 Chihuahua from puppies, and cared for them until they passed. I have skills in bathing, walking, grooming, feeding, and administering certain medications. I am very compassionate and will care for your pets like my own. I work full time, but I work a 10 minute walk away from my apartment, so if I am watching your pet at my home, or if you live near me, I can make afternoon visits for walks, feedings, or company. I leave my apartment around 10a and arrive back home around 6p on a normal day, but I can make afternoon visits as well and I can even work remotely some days. My schedule is very flexible, so I can make most things work as long as I know in advance. I have no pets in my apartment currently, but my apartment is pet-friendly. I do not own any crates or other items, so I would need to have those provided for me if boarding your pet. My apartment has doors to close in every room to keep your pet from wandering if need be, but I also keep my space very tidy and neat, so nothing unsafe is within reach anyways. I do not have a yard, but I live in a very walkable neighborhood with a lot of grassy spots for your pet to enjoy and utilize. I also have a fenced park nearby if they like to run around and play.
“Was great with Pups! She fed & played with them! Left a detailed review of their time together. So appreciate Amanda popping in at the last minute for us! Loved that she is comfortable with "bigger" breeds. Friendly and great communication.”

About: I grew up on a farm in Cambria/Lockport, NY and have been surrounded by animals my entire life. Caring for animals has never been a job to me, it’s just how I was raised. Growing up, I helped care for 50 baby calves, 2 horses, 18 cats, 8 dogs, a miniature goat, and over 1,000 exotic birds and parrots since my mom was an exotic bird breeder. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including senior pets, shy pets, and high energy dogs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet because I feel the exact same way about my own little dog, Bambi, who is spoiled and loved like family. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication reminders, or just someone calm and caring around them, I will treat them like they’re my own. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks, drop in visits, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, cat care, companionship visits, and overnight in home stays while owners are away on vacation. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, attention, and comfort, and I truly enjoy spending quality time with animals throughout the day. I am dependable, communicative, and willing to work with different schedules whenever possible to help pet owners feel comfortable knowing their pets are being cared for like family.

“Allison just walked our active dog still puppy stage for the first time. She handled her really well. Allison also came by yesterday to meet Mabel and was energetic, friendly, professional, and kind. I highly recommend her and look forward to using her again.”

About: I have cared for and owned many dogs since I was a child. Have cared for and boarded family members dog on many occasions in the last 6 years. I am very kind and patient with all animals. I work full time Monday to Friday. I can watch or board your pet fully on the weekends or after 4PM during the week. If its a pet that already uses crating during the work day I can also accommodate. I have a large fully fenced large yard, large home and will gladly walk your dog in the neighborhood. We have two kind children who love dogs and can help keep your dog company.
“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!”

About: I have experience with seizures and strokes in dogs, am able to administer any kind of medication, and have some experience with animals struggling with anxiety. I am a graduate student just looking for some fulfilling part time work. I am available at any point during the weekdays and after October 31st on the weekends I will not be able to host any animals, but I plan on prioritizing the pet’s comfort within their own home and making sure all needs are met

About: I am a veterinary technician. If you do not know what that is, then let me tell you. A vet tech is a nurse, anesthetist, dental technician, radiology technician, pharmacy technician, and receptionist. One person doing the work of many. So not only do I have experience with the care of animals I also know how to wear many hats. Aside from caring for other people's pets I also care for my own dog. A male shih tzu named Harley. As most people do, I think of him as part of the family. Let me help you provide quality care for your furry family member. You can trust that your dog is in good hands because I will treat your dog just like my own. Pet care is my daily routine. During the week, I am available to care for your pet early mornings before 7am for drop ins, after 7pm for drop ins and walks. I have more availability on the weekends. I will not bring pets to my home. so, I will follow your instructions on how to properly care for your pets in your home.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my background as a professional caregiver, which gives me patience, reliability, and attention to detail. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including training puppies and providing extra care for senior pets, always tailoring my approach to each animal’s needs while giving them love, attention, and a sense of security. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work as a caregiver. I have an English bulldog mix named George, and I make time each day for his feeding, walks, and comfort. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family. I care for pets by following their individual routines and needs. At home, I ensure George, my English bulldog mix, gets walks, meals, playtime, and grooming.
“Kassandra is amazing. This was our first time using Rover and we hit the jackpot choosing her to care for our cat. She was very consistent with her arrival times and always provided good feedback in the Rover card! She even helped with a few extras around the house! We came back and Pumpkin seemed very content. Will always use her first as long as she is available!”

About: Hi, I'm Sarah, your local full-time petsitter! I've been a volunteer at a no-kill animal shelter since 2013. I've handled animals of every size and disposition with love and care in my time volunteering. I've been pet sitting independently since 2017, starting with a household of nine amazing fur and feather babies . I've worked with senior animals and those with special needs, caring for their unique physical and emotional needs when their parents are away. I've had practice giving medications orally, in-ear, subcutaneous injections, and am capable of following detailed instructions. I've been pet sitting through Rover since 2020, and I've also photographed pets professionally for several years, having worked with many different types of animals with patience and care. Besides all that, I was a cat mom for seventeen years and loved every second of it. CATS ARE WELCOME TO EVERY SERVICE I PROVIDE. I only book one family at a time, so there are no conflicts with other animals. I've always had an affinity for caring for animals and will always do my best to make sure they are comfortable, healthy, and happy. UPDATE for 2022: At this time I am no longer accepting new boarding appointments. I have however kept boarding open as an option so that new clients can find me. I know some families are skeptical of having someone come and stay at their home, but I find this is the best option for the welfare of the animals. If you are looking to board, but would be open to housesitting, please read my reviews (mostly gained from housesitting) and get in touch so we can set up a meet and greet. I look forward to hearing from you! DROP-IN Requests can be scheduled for up to 2 hours at the listed rate. Please message me with the details of your request if you would like longer than the standard 30 minutes. Notice of rate increase: As of February 1, 2025, single pet rates will be increasing from $65 to $70 in order to keep up with inflation. Multi-pet rates and drop-ins will remain the same. If you have booked with me already or have a booking pending, your rates will not go up for those bookings. Thank you for understanding, and thank you for being part of my Rover family! Since early 2020, I have made petsitting my full time career. I typically take one client at a time in order to provide the best care possible for animals that may struggle with separation anxiety or have set routines that their parents would prefer they keep while away. When I take a job caring for an animal, they become my priority. When I sit for a client in their home, their pet's environment, I dedicate the utmost respect to privacy and personal space. It's my job to care for an animal and I do that by observing their behavior, fulfilling their needs, and offering affection to the degree they are comfortable with; whether that's waiting for a shy animal to come to me for a sniff or to be pet, or an animal which has no concept of personal space at all (not an issue for me, I love cuddlers!). As for your home, I love to have a tour during meet and greets and get to know what rooms are accessible to me as a guest. I am very respectful of other people's homes and belongings and will always ask first if there's something I can't find or unplanned that I need to access during my stay. I pride myself on being trustworthy and tidy.
About: I have taken care of my parents, family friends, and roommates animals since I was a teenager. I’ve house sit with cats and dogs. From hyper puppies to laid back kitty cats I am here to help.

Madeline is so wonderful to work with. She tries her very best to work with you and make sure your animals get the care that need. Right from the start I felt comfortable trusting her to come into my home and care for my pup. During her visit she was in contact with me and sent pictures. I’m so happy with found Madeline. So is my pup!

Zachary is totally awesome! Zach took the most amazing care of my baby girl Remy . Everyday sent me pictures and updates about Remy without even having to ask. Remy was extremely happy with Zach and that’s a humongous plus for me . I will definitely be booking again with Zach without a doubt. I totally recommend anyone looking for someone who is very prompt and really does care about our fur babies you should book with Zach.

Five stars for Alyssa! We recently traveled for a week and entrusted our cat, Tilly, to Alyssa, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We left a very detailed list of instructions, and Alyssa followed every one of them to the letter. She was punctual for every morning and evening visit, and we never had to wonder whether Tilly was okay. Alyssa checked in regularly with updates and wonderful photos that gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Tilly loves spending time outdoors in her harness and leash, and that’s not something every sitter would be comfortable with. Alyssa happily accommodated this routine, and knowing Tilly was getting her usual outdoor time made us feel so much more at ease. It’s clear Alyssa is attentive and takes the time to care for a pet’s individual needs and personality. As a cat owner herself, Alyssa understands cats in a way that really shows. Tilly bonded with her quickly, and the photos she sent showed a happy, comfortable cat. Coming home to a content pet and a sitter who treated her like family was a huge relief. We can’t recommend Alyssa highly enough and will absolutely be booking her again. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter for your cat, look no further!

Gina was excellent. She went beyond what I would expect. In addition to the daily feedings and litter pan maintenance, she offered to take out our kitchen garbage when it started to stink up our home while we were on vacation. She also let me know when one of the cats had gotten sick on our carpet, and she offered to clean it for me with our carpet spray. She brought in our packages while we were gone, too! That was not necessary, but of course it was appreciated! I loved that she sent us photos of the cat routinely. It was reassuring to see that they were doing well. I would highly recommend Gina. She was reliable and took the task seriously.

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!

10 out of 10! Karen is the best! Our kitties were so well taken care of and loved! She thought of every detail, and was so considerate to our travel needs. Medication administration, food, playtime, and she sent the most adorable photos! I’ve never felt so secure going out of town- they were in great hands! Thank you Karen!

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Cheektowaga is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $29 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 936 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cheektowaga. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cheektowaga. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
