“Kathryn did an amazing job watching our two kitties! Her visit overviews and pictures made us feel at ease. She really went above and beyond taking great care of everything, and had great attention to detail! Definitely will be a repeat customer :)”
About: I’m a dedicated dog owner to my Miniature Poodle, Milo, so I understand the daily care, attention, and love dogs need. I have hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, grooming basics, and keeping a consistent routine. I’m patient, gentle, and make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I’m very reliable with schedules and instructions. Whether your dog is energetic or prefers a calm environment, I’ll make sure they are well cared for like my own. I am available daily. I feed my dog in the morning and at night. I’ll have to ensure that no dogs fights over foods. I’ll have to put one of the dog in bathroom and another dog can eat in a room until foods are done. They can be switched. I have a yard and I can put them in crate if needed. I’ll make sure everything goes well and safe. I ensure that pets have a safe, clean space to play, rest, and eat. I follow any specific instructions from the pet parent, including feeding schedules, medication, and exercise needs. I supervise pets closely, making sure they’re never left in unsafe situations, and I provide plenty of love, attention, and mental stimulation.
“We’ve had Mia take care of our cat Oliver twice now for weeklong trips. She is wonderful! Very communicative, timely, and so good with him. You can tell she loves what she does & cares so deeply for the animals she’s in charge of. Thank you Mia!”
About: I have had pets since I was a kid. I had dogs, cats, birds, fish, lizards, Guinea pigs. I currently have a husky now. I have a big heart for animals. I will help take care of any dog/cat. I am available after 3pm weekdays due to work and all day on weekends. If I can’t come for whatever reason, such my son being sick or an appointment, my boyfriend is able too. My dog is crate trained and he goes on walks daily. I will be able to take your dog out on walks and let them run in the backyard, if you have a fenced in yard. I will feed them and play with them and keep them stimulated.
About: Im used to being around different dogs my whole life I’ve had my own dog for three years. I’ve also taken care of dogs for my friends and family. Right now I am not working since and I’m only 18 so I’m available whenever you need me unless it’s when I’m busy and doing something. I care for my pets by having a lot of toys so if they want to play with there toys they can also I walk them so they get the exercise they need.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life especially bigger dogs like German shepherds. But I recently got a black lab golden mix and would love to bring him over for a puppy play date:) I’m currently working full time but I can make a visit either before or after I get out to play with your pets and make sure they get the care they need! It would definitely brighten up my day as well before going in and give me something to look forward to after:) I have a friendly golden lab mix to help keep your fur babies company if you would like. He loves to play and is such a sweetheart
“Nikki did a fantastic job! We left for an eight day trip and needed someone to care for our four cats while we were away… She was happy to come over in advance and meet them to learn their routines, including give them medication and prescription foods for their different needs. She also made sure to give them treats and affection, and update us daily with reports and pics. Would definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone!”
About: Hi! My name is Cory and I am a lifelong animal lover. I’m the one you’ll find at the party sitting on the floor with the dog. Friends and family have trusted me for years to care for their fur babies while they are away. My husband and I live in Honeoye Falls with two 9-year old Cane Corsos and 3 cats. They are family to us and we know the importance of having someone you trust care for them when you can’t. I have experience administering medications if needed and understand each pet has their own unique set of needs and preferences. Does your dog refuse to eat if his bowl is on the hardwood floor and not the carpet? I get it. Does your cat need to drink from the sink, but only at the right water pressure? I get it. My goal is to build a relationship with you and your pets so I can provide the best care possible. I’m currently working full time, so evening drop ins and weekend care will be my primary focus for now. We can work together to find scheduling that fits your needs and I will be fully transparent with availability. I will require a meet and greet with you and your pet before accepting any new bookings. This allows me to see if my abilities match their unique needs, as well as your expectations and preferences.
“As always thanks for everything and fun time with the dogs!! I will like to book June drop in session. Let me know if you are getting busy or if I can check your schedule. If there are bad times, I will work around your schedule. Have a great weekend 😀”
“Joey is amazing with all my animals. My Cane Corso takes special introducing and not everyone I introduce him to takes the job. He liked Joey from the first day. I actually have a little farmstead with several types of animals, including a horse, a goat, an emu, over 50 chickens and other types of fowl. I even feed some of the wildlife! Joey does all of it. I get great pics and I'm always so happy with the detailed list he leaves of all the chores and extras that he does. He even remembers things that I forget to mention sometimes! Number one call for me all the time is Joey. Besides, he gave me a very reasonable farmstead rate. I highly recommend this sitter, especially if you have animals not listed on Rover!”
“Suzanne was a great communicator and reliable! I appreciated the pictures and videos and most importantly felt that my animals were being well taken care of! Would use again!”
About: "When we adopt a dog or any pet, we know it is going to end with us having to say goodbye, but we still do it. And we do it for a very good reason: They bring so much joy and optimism and happiness. They attack every moment of every day with that attitude" ~ W. Bruce Cameron I am a pet owner and animal lover. I have experience caring for cats, dogs ,fish, and reptiles. I have worked with many animals and am comfortable walking, feeding, playing with and caring for your pets. I am an energetic undergraduate student and look forward to meeting your pets! Pets are humanizing. They remind us we have an obligation and responsibility to preserve and nurture and care for all life." ~James Cromwell I currently work as a pier firm delivery driver so I have plenty of room to baby sit your fur babies. I am currently available Any Day 24 hrs I currently have an open front yard but I have certain places I like to walk dogs that I take care of so they can get their energy out.
About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I love to take my dog on walks at the beach and play in the yard with him. I am attentive to any reactions they might have to their surroundings as well. I’ve been looking for a job during the week days and I figured why not try this out to maybe help some families live their life if they’re on vacation or super busy. I have a friendly dog who will keep any pets company. I have a big yard with sun or shade if any dogs love to be outside. I also have crates if dogs need to be crated during the night or day.
About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs in the last 10 years, from family and friends to my neighbors dogs and doing overnight stays. I love walking dogs and playing with them. I have had a dog in my household for my whole life, and I have taken care of dogs ranging from a puppy to senior care. I am currently a college student at St. John Fisher University, so depending on the day I am available at different times! Reach out and we can discuss what works best! Depending on the location, I always make sure the dog is in a safe place like a fenced in area, and if not fenced in then on a leash. I also take precautions when walking dogs to be dressed appropriately, use a short leash and try to eliminate distractions. Safety is my number 1 priority when taking care of any animals.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. We have always had at least one dog in the house if not more. In the past 6 years I have helped my parents to puppy train twice. I love dogs unconditionally, but I am not afraid to show a little tough love when needed. I’m currently going back to school and attend a lot of local sporting events but I still make it a priority to take my dog for a walk daily. Whether we fit in a walk before I leave in the morning or in-between class and a game, I know how much she loves her walks. I also make sure to give her ample play time when I am home. I make sure that whether the pet is in a fenced in yard or not I am always keeping an eye on them when outside. I always respect the clients wishes regarding their animal being on furniture, in what rooms, and such on.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Clifton is $3 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $3 and $3 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 949 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Clifton. 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 Clifton. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
