“Sierra could not have been better! As a first time Rover user with a dog that can be quite a handful, while also traveling out of state for a week+, my wife and I were a little worried. The experience was stress-free, my dog loved her, and Sierra went above and beyond in many ways. I would recommend Sierra to anyone and we are so glad we have found someone that can watch our little guy. Pretty sure our little guy was a little sad to see us walking in the door and not Sierra when we returned home.”
“Emma is fantastic! This was my first time using this app and it was such a positive experience. Paulie loved her and she’s very responsive. Will definitely book with her again in the future.”

“My dog Luna is a sweetheart, but gets a little worked up when she see other dogs. Jackie never lets this quirk keep her from taking Lu on a great walk. My schedule can be a little hectic and I greatly appreciate that Jackie is flexible for short notice requests and always responds quickly.”

About: I have aided in training both of our German shorthaired pointers growing up as well as a go-to pet carer and walker when close friends and family are on vacation or cannot get away from the office. I take time out of my day to do this for my current family & friends so I am used to making the pets a priority because that time of their day I get to spend with them is very crucial to their happiness since their owner cannot be there. I take pride in being chosen to be a part of different pets lives and have a vast experience with different breeds (aussies, bulldogs, labs, and cats are just to name a few!) Looking forward to chatting soon!! Pet care fits into my routine pretty frequently. I have an hour of lunch time to myself and use that to be able to let pets out and if the owner requests to stay with them a big longer, I do & finish up some work there if possible. Getting out at 5 p.m. every day is a benefit to the pets I go let out and spend time with because the rest of the night I am free. My availability is Monday-Sunday! I care for the pets with mostly the instructions the owner gives like if they need fed or not etc but I always always always make sure to play with them, give them pets, and make sure they are used to me before anything else. If they have a fenced in yard I will play with them but in other cases when the dog is staying in my house with me, I always give them walks throughout the day as well as bring them to a cages in dog park near my house so they can roam free a bit without the leash.
“Cassidy did an amazing job walking Archie while we were on vacation! She was always on time and went above and beyond to make Archie feel safe and loved. She sent tons of pictures as well as detailed daily updates. She is incredibly trustworthy and I highly recommend her!”

“Tatyjana was phenomenal! She took great care of our 8 month old corgi, Poke, during his walk and was careful to not let our 3 year old indoor cat outside during the process! She is very professional, and made sure to keep us updated from the start of the walk to it’s finish. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”

“We love Tina! She has provided excellent care for my deaf dog Sassy and even knows sign language. She is great at keeping you up to date of what your pet has been up to while at work. I look forward to continue working with Tina!”


About: I have experience as an overnight pet sitter, drop-in visitor, and dog walker, providing dependable and attentive care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I truly love dogs and all animals, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy and am passionate about! One of my greatest strengths is communication. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel informed and at ease, so I make it a priority to provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses. I treat every pet like they are my own and work hard to ensure both pets and owners feel happy, comfortable, and confident in my care. As a college student home for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule throughout the day for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. Along with my nannying experience and active lifestyle, caring for pets fits naturally into my routine. I’m dependable, organized, and love spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, providing overnight care, or stopping in for visits and playtime. I always make it a priority to keep pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine when I’m caring for them in a client’s home. I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any specific care requests to make sure each pet feels as stress free as possible. I love spending quality time with animals through walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention based on their personality and needs. In a client’s home, I make sure to respect the space, keep everything clean and organized, and provide regular updates with photos and communication so owners feel comfortable while they’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and sometimes cats for 3 years at a few daycares and boarding facilities. I love animals and would love to provide care for them! I’m currently recovering from a leg injury, so for now I’m focusing on caring for small dogs and cats! I love giving them attention, walks, and cuddles. I’ll be ready to work with bigger dogs again very soon once my leg fully heals! I will provide care for pets at clients home by making sure they are fed, medicated if needed and safely crated after I leave. Also, keep the pets safe from anything dangerous.
About: All 3 of my animals I've owned throughout my life have lived full, happy lives. They also, however, required close supervision. Both cats were outdoor cats which required consistent grooming, tick repellant, and even medicine administration for when they ate something they shouldn't have, or developed infections (administering pills to a cat is a skill I'm proud to put on my resume.) My dog Connor developed an autoimmune disease, and required prednisone administration daily. He was also a very reactive dog to other dogs, so those behaviors I am very well-versed in handling. The same can be said for my partner's family's two dogs (black lab mix and white Dogo Argentino), and my sister's pug mix. Dogs are reactive for a reason and I do not judge them for it, I'm happy to accommodate their predispositions. I work completely remote (and to be truthful it's a pretty chill job day to day) so I'd consider myself the best option as someone who has a full time job outside of Rover! Plus, I love the company of pet sitting during the week. I'm of the belief that cats and dogs belong on the couch and the bed, so in my home they are allowed wherever they please. That being said, if you have more strict rules for your animals either inside my home or yours, I completely understand and have no problem carrying out your wishes (obviously.) My care style is attentive. I know that's another obvious answer, but I've always loved interacting with animals, playing with them, etc. It makes me happy.
“Bodie loves every time Kelly comes over to take him for a walk! She is great and understands that he can be a little nervous and reactive to certain things, and she is always patient and takes the time to work with him. I would definitely recommend Kelly if you’re looking for someone to help out with your doggo!”

About: I currently work as a veterinary assistant at a 24/7 ER hospital in the area. I have worked/interned at Petsmart and the Buffalo Zoo. I have graduated college with degree in animal behavior, ecology, and conservation and a minor in zoo biology. I have pet sat for many families and taken care of dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, birds, and reptiles. My responsibilities for these animals included giving flea and tick medication, general medication, feedings, playtime, multiple walks a day, cleaning up the yard, keeping good water levels, etc. I also have a fear free shelter certification. I currently work full time as a veterinary assistant at an ER hospital, but have availability on my days off to do drop ins or walks When owners leave their pet with me I understand that it is all about trust that their pet will be in good hands. Many owners like me to come over prior to so I can meet their pet and get specific directions for caring for them as well as seeing where everything is. Every owner will have specific directions for how to take care of their pet and I make sure to follow those directions and consult them with any questions that might come up.I will never attempt to take care of a pet I am not comfortable with taking on and will always ask for clarification about how to do something I don’t know how to do. I also will send updates and photos as often as the owners would like so they have assurance that their pet is happy and healthy!

“Outstanding care! I have a new puppy and was very concerned about leaving him during the day. She checked in with me about how he was doing and even sent pics! Highly recommend Mindy. Reliable and very personable!”

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your East Amherst. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Every walker 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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in East Amherst. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
