“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.”

“Mackenzie attended to our 2 cats while we were gone for the week on vacation. She was very reliable & responsive to our cats needs. Communication was excellent, updating us with pictures and texts.”

About: Hi there, I’m Maddie! I grew up with animals and now have two dogs of my own. I volunteer once a week at my local humane society and have had experience fostering. I understand the need to know that your animal is receiving the best care possible! It’s my goal and mission to treat your pet as I would my own and provide them with the best care possible! Dogs and cats are our loyal companions. They deserve the best that we can provide them with. My schedule is very flexible. I work remotely full time and have control over my schedule during the weekday and weekends. I bring my dogs to work with me when I have to work in the office. I have a fenced in yard that the dogs are able to play in. I have baby gates in the house that can keep pets within a safe boundary. I’m cautious of doors to ensure that pets don’t escape. I’m constantly reading and watching for body language that communicates to me whether your pet is happy, stressed, etc.

About: I have always grew up around animals. I currently have a dog and two cats, and have also watched other peoples pets in my neighborhood. I have done overnights and helped while people were traveling I am pretty flexible. I am a college student and can work around my class schedule to ensure your pet is loved and taken care for. My classes are pretty flexible to work around. I have a car that I can travel to client's houses and take care of animals. I can walk dog's, stay with pets overnight and spend time with them.
“Taylor was wonderful! Sent updates and pics of my boys each time she stopped at the house while I was gone for the weekend, and even my picky dog loved her. I will definitely be booking her the next time I need a dog sitter.”

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!”

About: Hello, I’ve been taking care of my dogs and neighbors dogs since as long as I can remember. I got my own dog when I was 16 along with the two family dogs I already helped take care of. I have an Australian Shepard, Bernese Mountain dog, and a Golden Retriever. I’ve been taking care of big energetic dogs my whole life so its never a problem for me. I am a college student and during the summers have been doing dog walks, feeding, and overnight visits. I’ve never had any problems with any breed and honestly just love to meat new ones. I am a full time college student but I do have a good amount of time. Especially on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and also weekends. Tuesdays and Thursdays also work but only morning and nights. I can deal with complex instructions wether it is different feeding schedules or complicated diet restrictions as I understand that some dogs need a specific meal plan. I can’t currently house any dogs.

“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 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.

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.
“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.”

“Morgan is wonderful!!! She has done such a great job with my two crazy puppies! It’s been a real help with my work schedule to have her let them out to go potty in the middle of the day for me:)”

“This was the second time I have used Barb and Rover. My dogs needs have evolved and Barb adapted well to the increased complexity needed to care for my dogs. I feel confident that I can rely upon her again when I need to.”

About: I have taken care of my family dog and a couple other people dog by either staying at the house or just stopping in the let them out or to walk them I’m currently working full time and doing show camera work for wrestling but I will have time weekly and on weekends to take care of your animals When I’m at your home I will 100 percent watch you dog when outside or inside to make she it doesn’t get into anything while I’m their
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.
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!
