Logan was very prompt in arranging our meet & greet after I reached out on rather short notice. I appreciated his flexibility also when I ended up coming back from my trip a day early. He shared lots of pictures and everything was in order when I got home. I'd be glad to work with Logan again.

About: I’ve owned animals my entire life. I’ve grown up taking care of fish, guinea pigs, dogs, and cats. I now own two cats of my own as well. I am available most days of the week until I start working full time. My focus on Roverr is drop-in care visits and dog walking. I can house sit temporarily, a day-event for example, but can not work overnight. I would provide safe company for your pets to play and feel comfortable while you are temporarily away from your home. I will also take care of your pets dietary needs.

Nina took great care of our two senior kitties while we were traveling abroad; she even went to the post office to pick up the pet meds that didn’t arrive on time prior to our departure. We returned home to two relaxed, happy cats. Your pets will be well looked after!

Chanine was able to support a late minute request for a sitter, and even do a meet and greet in that short time. Brutus seemed well taken care of at the end of both days after the drop in visit.

About: I have cared for animals my entire life and have fostered puppies through adulthood as well as taken care of aging dogs with responsibility and care. I am a teacher and am happy to assist your family before or after school, on weekends or on school vacations. I am happy to travel since I have the flexibility of time. We have a fenced in yard with additional area to walk in a leash. At clients’ homes, I will carefully and respectfully follow directions on where you are most comfortable with me walking and with which equipment you feel works best for your pet.

About: I have had dogs all my life and spent over 20 years as a Pet Groomer both in a shop and mobile. I have had continued education in cat grooming, dog grooming, skin care, etc. I specialized in senior and anxiety dogs. I have had upward of 9 dogs at one time and they did not all get along. I have also owned a diabetic dog. I also have a Reiki background. Currently I am retired from pet grooming and I own another business that is seasonal therefore my schedule is pretty flexible and my availability is pretty open too. I have a small fenced yard in a low traffic community that is good for walks too. I am familiar with crate training and can accommodate that if needed. I also have gates if access needs to be limited to parts of my house. Example, I do have stairs and can block them if pet is unable to do stairs.

I had Melissa come to feed and let Charlie out 2 times while I was at a wedding. She came a few days ahead of the scheduled visits to meet Charlie and he instantly was best friedms with her. Durring her stops she went above and beyond by playing ball with him and by taking him for a walk. She sent update messages after each visit. I would recommend her services if you need someone to take care of your pets.

About: What sets me apart is my combination of professional experience, hands-on training knowledge, and truly individualized care. I previously worked as a veterinary technician, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with a wide range of needs, including safely administering medications and recognizing subtle changes in behavior or health. Beyond that, I have personal experience training dogs, including puppies, so I can reinforce good habits, basic commands, and positive behaviors while they’re in my care. I’m also attentive to senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra patience, or specialized support. Most importantly, I take the time to really get to know each dog—their personality, quirks, energy level, and what makes them feel safe and happy. Whether your dog thrives on physical activity, needs mental stimulation, or just wants extra love and reassurance, I adjust my care to fit them. I live in a home with a large yard and use long leads to give dogs the freedom to safely sniff, explore, and enjoy their environment at their own pace. My goal is always to create a calm, enriching, and loving experience so your dog feels completely at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work on my own schedule, which gives me the flexibility to be fully present and attentive to each dog in my care. I’m able to plan my day around their needs—whether that means regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or just spending quality time with them. Because of this flexibility, I’m not rushing in and out or trying to squeeze care into a busy schedule. I can provide consistent attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day, making sure each dog feels comfortable, engaged, and well cared for. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priority is always their safety and comfort. I treat every animal as if they were my own, with the utmost love, patience, and responsibility. In my home, I provide a calm, secure environment where dogs can relax and feel at ease. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and rest, and I make sure each dog gets the right balance of activity, mental stimulation, and affection based on their individual needs. My yard allows for safe outdoor time, and I’m always attentive and supervising. In a client’s home, I respect your pet’s established routine to help them feel as comfortable as possible in their familiar space. I follow all care instructions closely, keep their environment clean and safe, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and companionship while you’re away. No matter the setting, I focus on building trust, paying attention to each pet’s unique personality, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for at all times.

Jamestown, NY, 14701

About: I have "officially" been petsitting consistently since 2022, but I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses as pets and my love for animals has never waned. Currently I own 2 goldendoodles and they are my "kids". Pets/services I have experience with and are willing to offer are: -Dogs (large & small), cats (house & barn), horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, chickens, pigs, goats -Administering medications, eye & ear drops, supplements, and special foods for special diets -Staying overnight in clients' homes to care for pets in their usual, comfortable environments (I do not board pets in my own home) -Dropping into clients' homes to feed, let out, and/or just play with their pets or keep them company! -Light cleaning/tidying up around clients' homes, as I always like to leave them looking even better after I stay there. I strive to treat and care for my clients' pets as if they are my own, because that is what I would want and expect for my own pets! I work a full-time job in downtown Jamestown, NY Monday-Friday, usually between the hours of 10:00am-6:00pm, but these hours can be flexible at times. I also work occasional shifts at a horse farm, typically 1-3 times a week for anywhere from 2-5 hours per shift. This leaves me with the following (generally consistent) availability for pet care for my Rover clients: -Monday-Friday: Early morning feedings & check-ins; midday feedings & check-ins (if located within 15 minutes of downtown Jamestown); evening feedings, check-ins, & social interaction/hanging out once I am done with my full-time job for the day. I am even open to staying overnight in a client’s home on weeknights to ensure I am providing the best pet care I can while juggling my full-time job. -Weekends: I can typically hang around in a client’s home with your pets all day Saturday and Sunday, or I can just stop by for feedings & check-ins throughout the day. I can also typically stay overnight in a client’s home Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights. I am willing to work to tweak my schedule as much as I can within my means, in order to meet the needs of my clients and their pets. :) I prefer to only care for my clients' pets in their own home since pets are typically most comfortable in their usual environments. As long as I am at a client's home, pets will receive more than just the minimum care and attention they require. I will gladly engage in their favorite activities with them, whether that be fetch, snuggling on the couch, or giving them belly rubs!

About: Taken care of all pets since a very young age. I've had multiple cats my whole life and a recently passed dog aswell as fish, rats, guinea pigs, and insects. Family and friends have asked for me to pet-sit and for a year I took care of 2 adorable puppies while their parents worked late to start their business. Currently working part-time with a very flexible schedule and have absolutely no problem calling off once or twice a week(I hate my job I wish I could care for animals full time) I spoil all of my pets and have no issue with treating your babies the same way! I maintain a clean environment with advanced nutrition and probably excessive play with my tabby cat!

About: Hi fellow dog lovers, my name is Rocky, a 25 yo male college undergrad that just moved here to buffalo. I’m originally from New Orleans Louisana. I come from a home of two shih-tzu dogs, (Popsicle and Levi), which I had to leave behind with my mom and sister. I enjoyed walking, feeding, stimulating, and just being all around loved by my two best friends. And I am looking to explore the same opportunities with your beloved pet. I promise to give the upmost care and attention that your pet deserves. Pick me as your personal rover walker or sitter, and let the worries go. You will come home to a relaxed, well excercised, and already gone for a potty, loving dog. That is my promise.

About: Having worked as both a dog trainer and a pet care associate for PetSmart for 3+ years - as well as having always been a pet owner myself - I’ve learned a great deal about how to suit the needs of each and every pet and how to best communicate with them and accommodate their needs! As a teacher aide with summers off, I will have almost complete availability over summer. I am flexible and willing to work with you to figure out what will work best for I can comfortably handle different types of animals with my 2+ years of experience owning my own (cats, dogs, gerbils, hamsters, etc) and working with different species, as well as training dogs at my previous job as a PetSmart worker for 3+ years!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Dunkirk

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Dunkirk on Rover is $15.54 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
