“Always fantastic, my dog is a nervous little man but seems so comfortable with Melissa and her family that I know when he's with her I don't have to worry at all. Melissa's care is such a relief”

I love the pictures and updates I receive throughout the day and Levi has been so accommodating with schedule changes. Would recommend without a doubt!”

“Susan is amazing! She is very welcoming and great with the pups. We love that she sent us videos and photos during the day and our puppy had a fantastic day!! We can't say enough about our experience and will be regular customers from now on.”

About: I've had pets my entire life! I've taken care of my own pets - dogs, cats, snakes, gerbils, and rats - who have had a variety of needs including meds, fluids and inhalers, and friends', family, and neighbors' pets! I have always been a huge animal lover and having just moved back to Rochester with my partner as he starts his residency, I have a lot of free time! I would love to help with your animals! I have two cat and dog friendly cats who have a good routine and are always looking for new friends to play with! My apartment is secure and I dote on my kitties!

“We booked a trial daycare before our boarding to make sure it was a good fit for everyone and it went great! Please see my full review about how much fun Sal had while staying over for boarding. Thanks again!”


“Portia was amazing and I could tell through pictures and videos that he was having a blast. You know he has so much fun when I had to carry my 90lbs dog to the car because he didn’t want to leave?!! Thank you Portia!”


“Andriana was great with Monte while we went to the PGA tournament this weekend. He had a great time playing outside and went on a walk. Thanks again, we will definitely be using her again if we are back in Rochester.”


About: I would love to work with you and your canine family. I love dogs and want them to have every opportunity to be "out-and-about" enjoying their lives, walking and traveling, as they are meant to. Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly, and dogs got to walk! Dog-walking is service I am glad to provide. A brief background: I grew up with dogs. My first dog, a German Shepherd/Husky mix was a part of my family before I was born. After finishing my education, my partner and I adopted another Husky mix, Lulu, who was with us for 10+ years. She was well-trained, affectionate, and the best little fur friend we could have asked for. I have experienced, with a professional, Basic Obedience Class, Good Canine Citizenship, and will be continuing training to further my skills. Since Lulu passed, we adopted another cat (in addition to the one we already had), and they are the best of friends. However, I miss those daily walks with my furbie and am so glad for the opportunity to work with yours. I understand the importance of treating dogs with care and respect. It is my goal to increase my dog-walking skills to certification. Let's get in touch! Would be glad to chat more :) My schedule is generally 10am-4pm; but can be flexible if needed/as available. Will walk in any weather as long as it is safe to do so. Every measure will be taken to ensure the safety of your pet, including making sure they are safe on the leash while walking, while leaving and entering the home (no door dashing :]), as well as any other measures you may request to ensure safety.

About: I would love to take care of your pet. I have a lot of experience with cats and dog sitting. I love walking and playing with them very much. I understand their needs and treat them best I can based on their character. I genuinely love any animal I see and very happy and excited to be around them. I am very responsible person, and you can be sure that I will follow any instructions given. I can play, run, or just pet, cuddle with your dog/cat in a caring atmosphere, depending on his/her character. I will be happy to become a new friend to your pet! I am working from home right now and have pretty flexible schedule. Your pet will be with me most of the time, occasionally when I need to go to the store I may leave for an hour maximum. I have plenty of area to walk around with your dog as well as a few parks around if they are more active and love long walks.

“Sydney took our two large dogs so I could concentrate on enjoying the company of my young grandchildren without concern of them being knocked over. We dropped them in the morning and picked up at night. We got pictures of them going on good walks, and Sydney was great about responding to texts. We would definitely have her watch our boys again.”

“I have two reviews to write here. Mine first. That Mark cared for Gus during my first week at a new job brought so much peace of mind. Mark was accommodating with pickup and drop off times and communicated during the day with pictures and notes. I had no stress about Gus being in good hands. Now from Gus. I am a pandemic pup—totally attached to my empty nester parents (though I really do love everyone.) I loved going to Mark’s house—hopped right out of my mom’s car and ran up to his gate. We went on walks and I got to be pals with his dogs. We played and played and I was so tired when my mom picked me up. I think she was too so she was really happy that I just wanted to lay on the clinch when we got home. Mark took really good care of me and I hope I get to go back. ??”


“Sarah was awesome! I was in town for a family wedding. It was so nice to have a Tuukka so we’ll taken care of when I was busy. Being a young Ausssie mix I couldn’t leave her for hours in a hotel in a crate. Sarah and her other visitors wore Tuukka out! A tired dog is a happy dog. Highly recommend Sarah!”

She currently cares for two lovable and energetic cats, who require a great amount of love and diligence, and I can personally say they are very content to have found their forever home. In addition to caring for her personal cats, Carolyn has experience raising and training young pups in her family home, and being granted the opportunity to care for exotics. Not only will you enjoy having your pets cared for by Carolyn, but you will request her service again for her attention to detail and her kind heart.”

“Jessica is an amazing dog walker! She has a lot of patience and will provide structure for the dog on the walk. Jessica does a great job of maintaining control of the dog on walks, and keeps the dog focused so external distractions (squirrels, people, etc) does not take away from the walking experience. Overall, I highly recommend Jessica as a dog walker :)”

East Avenue dog parents share their Rover experiences
I try not to leave our dog ever, as she is 14 years old and I would like to spend as many moments as possible with her, but I wanted to spend a day with my husband visiting museums in a new city. So I decided to ask Susan to care for our dog. I wept when we drove away from Susan and my dog, but within a short time I received a text with a beautiful photo Susan took of our dog, seated happily on a large comfy bed with a peaceful, relaxed look on her face. I appreciated that text from Susan so much! As a result, I immediately relaxed and my husband and I enjoyed a wonderful day. Susan gave our dog loving care. She was prompt at drop-off and pick-up. We would definitely ask Susan to care for our dog again. Thank you, Susan. We loved meeting you! So did Callie! 💝

Elliot and Dominque are wonderful! I’ve used them for daycare a couple of times to get my pup comfortable there before an upcoming trip next month. I know he’ll be in good hands. I very much appreciate their professionalism and frequent communication/updates!
