“Alyssa was great! She offered to come by to meet our fur babies ahead of time to make sure they would be comfortable! She followed our list to a T and then some! We will definitely book her again when we go out of town next! Thank you again Alyssa!”
“Lavinia took such great care of our pup and our house. She gave daily check-ins and made sure to reach out with any questions or concerns. We will be booking with her again in the future.”
“Carla was outstanding! She was very thoughtful and flexible and we highly recommend her as a dog sitter. We have 2 small dogs, energetic dogs and she didn't miss a beat :)”
“We had an absolutely fabulous first experience with Ona staying in our home and watching our kitty Mira while we were in Bermuda for two weeks. What a great communicator!! And she was so willing to do all kinds of extras that come with a large home and land—including putting out corn for our wildlife friends and making sure our gardens didn’t wilt in the unexpected heat wave. Our kitty absolutely adored her, and she wants us to go away again soon so that she can snuggle and play with Ona again :) Thank you for everything, Ona. It was a joy to have you watching over our home.”
“Gracelynn was perfect. Was on time, sent plenty of pictures and updates, and when we returned the dogs were very happy, always a sure sign they were well cared for. House was in perfect order as well. Oh and puppy is still being housetrained by Gracelynn made it 2 days without an accident. Hurray!”
“John was amazing. This was the first time we had a sitter for our 10 month old lab and he made us feel so comfortable and relaxed about the entire experience. He helped train our dog and made him comfortable when we were gone. We can’t wait to ask for John to help us in the future. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about dogs. Lucky to have found him.”
“Emily has taken care of my baby 🐕 twice now, and does a great job! My dog seems comfortable with her and is happy and tired when I come home 🥰. Emily is also very thoughtful and leaves everything clean.”
“Nickole did a great job of taking care of our two pups. It shows that she loves animals. They were both happy with tails wagging when we got home.”
“Amber was so great to my dog and to my space while she stayed. I would definitely recommend her to care for your dog!”
“Annaliese kept me informed as to how the dogs were doing. I received photos of the dogs about twice a day. She kept the routine for the dogs the same by following directions left. The dogs looked happy & taken care of.”
“David was wonderful with my dog and cat while we were away for a long weekend! They were well-taken care of and I would definitely book again!”
“Very much appreciate the last minute availability and the good care of my pup Nilla! I would’ve liked more updates on how it was going, but I just get nervous leaving her, especially with new people. Everything in the house was we left it and Nilla was perfectly content when we’re arrived home.”
“We couldn't be happier with our experience with Michelle as a sitter for our dog, Darby! From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely cares for animals. During Darby's stay, Michelle took her on daily walks, ensuring she got plenty of exercise and fresh air. We loved receiving daily photos that captured Darby's playful spirit and happy moments, giving us peace of mind while we were away. It was evident that Darby received plenty of attention and playtime, as she came home tired and content. Michelle's dedication and warmth truly made a difference, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter for their furry friends! Thank you, Michelle!”
“Nina was a great sitter for our three dogs. Even before the booking and meet/greet, she asked questions to get to know our dogs and their routines. She’s very thorough and detailed. Nina communicated throughout the stay with pictures and updates on how they were doing. She kept the house clean also. Would recommend and book again!”
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!
“Morgan was amazing. She went above and beyond for both Riley and Miranda with love, affection and care and was exceptional with communicating and photos. We will absolutely be hiring her again and highly recommend!!”
“Suzanne stayed in our house with our 2 dogs for 9 days and did an awesome job. She was a great communicator - we got daily updates which gave us so much peace of mind. She stepped in at the last minute after other plans feel through and dealt with our older dog's medical issues smoothly. And when we returned she had clearly put a lot of effort into making sure the house was clean and ready for us. Maybe the most impressive thing about Suzanne's work is that both of our dogs were really calm when we returned - happy to see us, but not overly crazed like they often can be.”
“Ricky "petsat" our elderly dog and 2 cats in our home for 4 nights and they were well taken care of. Our dog requires multiple medications and Ricky was comfortable with administering. He didn't balk at cleaning up little cat puke! He is quick with communicating and sent us photo updates. I felt comfortable that our fur babies were being well cared for. Thank you Ricky.”
“Colin did an excellent job. Good communication while we were away, and we came home to a happy dog and a house in good order. Will definitely hire him again.”
“We recently had Jessica to look after our two dogs. She was wonderful and so attentive. We received quite a few photos which included updates and we knew our dogs were in great hands. We highly recommend Jessica to anyone who is looking for someone to take care of their fur babies!!!”

Wonderful overnight pet sitter! Alyssa took great care of our dog overnight and left our home just as we left it, clean and tidy. Our pup was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Highly reliable and attentive. We’d definitely book again!
Carla was very good with Norman and paid extra care and attention to him. I had no worries while traveling and will definitely book her again. Thank you!
Ariana did an amazing job with our pups! We loved receiving the updates of them enjoying their time with her. The house looked amazing as well. We will definitely be seeking her petsitting services in the future!
Jessica was lovely. She was available at short notice and was very accommodating. She also took great care of the animals.
Emily has taken care of my baby 🐕 twice now, and does a great job! My dog seems comfortable with her and is happy and tired when I come home 🥰. Emily is also very thoughtful and leaves everything clean.
I can’t recommend Izzy highly enough! She took exceptional care of my dog and cat while I was away. My dog can be a bit reactive, but Izzy handled her with calm confidence—walking her two to three times a day and playing enriching games to keep her engaged. She also made sure my cat was well entertained (even using a tablet!) and administered her medication with no trouble. When my flight home was unexpectedly canceled, Izzy rearranged her schedule and stayed an extra night without hesitation. It was such a relief to know my animals were safe, happy, and not alone during what turned out to be a stressful trip home. Izzy is reliable, caring, and clearly has a deep understanding of animals. I’m so grateful for her and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.
Lavinia did an awesome job caring for our two dogs and one kitty. She was very communicative and responsive, sent great photos, and made sure our furry crew was well taken care of while we were gone. I would not hesitate to book her again.
Nina was a great sitter for our three dogs. Even before the booking and meet/greet, she asked questions to get to know our dogs and their routines. She’s very thorough and detailed. Nina communicated throughout the stay with pictures and updates on how they were doing. She kept the house clean also. Would recommend and book again!
John was amazing. This was the first time we had a sitter for our 10 month old lab and he made us feel so comfortable and relaxed about the entire experience. He helped train our dog and made him comfortable when we were gone. We can’t wait to ask for John to help us in the future. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about dogs. Lucky to have found him.
Another great visit from Jamie! It’s comforting to know our animals are well taken care of while we’re away! Can’t recommend Jamie enough!!
Emily went above and beyond in caring for our pets! She frequently communicated and sent pics. The animals looked well loved and happy giving us peace of mind. She also took care of unexpected problems with our pool and home without worrying us about it until she had found solutions to keep our stress low. She is the best!
Annaliese made an initial visit with Chester to get to know him. Chester is 14 and has mobility issues so we talked about his requirements while we were away for about six hours. We were impressed with her approach to Chester - he's sometimes protective when visitors come into the house. They got along great! It turned out we had to cancel our plans so we didn't need a sitter. However, I wouldn't hesitate having Annaliese as a pet sitter.
I have booked Emalee for overnight dog sitting a number of times now. She is my go to when I am out of town and I want to rest easy knowing my pup is well cared for when I am gone. Thank you for treating her like one of your own. Not to mention the updates are so reassuring to get. Emalee is so respectful of the house and the space going above and beyond to make sure things are left tidy!!
Helen was wonderful with our puppy Ayla and treated her like one of her own. We really appreciated the updates and adorable photos, it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s obvious that she’s a dog lover and is fantastic with animals. We would absolutely recommend her to everyone!
Melaney was great!! Stayed overnight with our family 3 dogs & kitty while we went to a concert. She kept us updated and sent pics & the animals all really enjoyed their time with her!
Paris was great with our dogs! They spent time outside and snuggling and the dogs seemed happy when we got home. Paris paid attention to the instructions that were left regarding medication administration, etc.
Eric helped me when I was really in a pinch. He was kind, communicative, and dog-centered. Took my pup on a long walk and tired her out in a great way. Highly recommend.
Jackie was such a wonderful sitter!! She took great care of my dog and my home while I was away. I’ll definitely be scheduling with her again.
