Kiersten was amazing! She was extremely communicative, putting my mind at ease when I was out of the country. She made sure my doggo got lots of love and walks. I will be booking with her again!

Five stars all the way. One of my pups, Eddie, is a bit of a pain in the ass and nips at strangers. Jennifer took the time to come over every Monday after work for 4 weeks before the sitting date to allow him to get accustomed to her. Just absolutely above and beyond. And both dogs totally love her. She did a wonderful job sitting and even left the house in better condition than when I left. Definitely hiring Jennifer again in the future

About: I've loved caring for pets for family and friends over the years. Moved away from home so looking to keep that same experience around here. I'm generally off on Sundays and Mondays for work, and live close enough for potty breaks and I make my own schedule if enough notice is given. I have a fenced in yard which has been home to dogs the size of a Great Pyrenees down to a Yorkshire Terrier before. The home is large enough for multiple pets to have their space.

Cassandra did an amazing job taking care of my 3 cats. She was very quick to respond if i had any question or concerns and showed real genuine care for my animals. She was my first sitter on Rover so i was kind of nervous about the whole process but she really made everything very easy and i was able to focus on my vacation and what i needed to get done.

About: Hi my name is Steph and I love animals of all kinds! I currently have 4 cats of my own. I have plenty of experience with dogs, growing up with large breeds and pet sitting since I was 12 years old! I am a part time nursing student with open availability. I am patient, caring and would love to take care of your pets when they need it most! I work part time Mon-Fri, 4pm - 9pm. I am a part time nursing student with only 1 class day a week. So I am available for many hours during the day! In my home my 4 cats get nothing but love from my family and I. If you trust me to care for your pets I will treat them like nothing other than my own! 💗

I recently had the pleasure of working with Jade to care for my pup while I was out of town, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the initial meet-and-greet, it was evident that Jade is a true dog lover, and also a responsible and caring caregiver. Throughout the duration of my time away, Jade provided regular updates, including photos and videos, which put my mind at ease. It was evident that my dog was not only well taken care of, but also genuinely happy and comfortable in Jade’s care. I absolutely recommend Jade to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. Her calm demeanor and genuine love for dogs, combined with their professionalism and attention to detail, made for an exceptional experience. I will certainly be hiring Jade again for any future sitting needs!

About: I have loved and worked with animals for as long as I can remember. I have always had pets in my house until now and would love to be able to help someone out while also spending time with their best furry friend(s). I love walking and being outside just as much as I love animals so your pets will definitely get the exercise that they need while still being carefully cared for and loved of course. As far as experience goes, I have always had at least one dog and cat in my home for the full 22 Years I have been alive. I have volunteered and worked on farms and in other animal care facilities with various animals and pets. I have watched others pets in their homes as well as mine numerous times and am always looking for new opportunities to meet and get to know more pets. I am currently unemployed besides doing care for Rover so my schedule is pretty much open. I love animals and caring for them as well as making sure they're happy. I like to make sure the environment I'm in, is at the very least, comfortable for everyone. I am highly animal friendly and love all types of animals.

Michayla is exceptional. She goes above and beyond in every situation with my pet. I’ve had her help with my dog on numerous occasions, from nail clipping to walking to house sitting. He’s a very anxious dog with separation anxiety and she does a great job soothing him and keeping him calm. I’d recommend her anytime to anyone. She’s capable of handling any type of animal and situation that may arise. Me and my puppy are both anxiously waiting for the next walk!

30 years of experience

About: A semi recent transplant from NYC/NJ area to upstate NY - Residing in Elmira for the past 3+ years. I have a lifetime of experience with pets in and have walked/cared for many others pets on a part time basis for many years - even while in the corporate world myself. I enjoy all breeds of dogs from puppies to seniors and even those with basic medical needs. I live an active/athletic life and love going for long walks, hikes, trails with my dogs/your dogs but also being a parent of two strong willed small dogs (chihuahua & mini pincher) myself - I know how a short brisk walk to get in all the sights & smells is just as enriching. Play time or time spent providing companionship is essential. I'm here to calm your nerves and focus on what is important for you & your fur family member while you are at work or away for a long weekend or vacation. I work primarily from home, however my flexible schedule ensures I have time and space to attend to your special furry family member. So wether it's a daily walk or sitting while you are away at work, an extended business trip or night away - your pet will also have a change in scenery & an enriching experience. Safety First and Fun 2nd. For those of you interested in my boarding services, we live on 7 secluded acres here in Elmira and take full advantage of that along with the beautiful rolling hills, trails and roads to take your dogs out for walks & stimulate their senses. And for those that have smaller dogs, and may prefer or require a modified outdoors experience I have a small fenced in dog run area that allows them to 'do their business'. I also have a large deck for the sun worshipers. I have a ring alarm on my front door. I bring all dogs in & out of the home via my garage to ensure all are properly leashed before going out for walks. I can crate dogs overnight if that is the preference otherwise the dogs will sleep overnight in my home office with pet cushions but the room would be gated off from the rest of the house during overnight hours. I feed on schedule & medicate upon schedules provided to me by the owner

Ivan is one of the sweetest individuals I have ever met and so good with animals! I don't trust my pets with many people, especially since my older dog has on set dementia/ health issues and doesn't like people but he loved Ivan instantly. Ivan has stayed in my home and taken care of my 3 pets like they are their own and given them the love and care they needed. I trust Ivan fully with my babies. And Ivan is one sitter I would highly recommend! The compassion they have for animals is unmatched!

In the past, Sabrina has watched my dog, Roofus. She was always on time and demonstrated a professional behavior while caring for him. She took him on multiple walks and played with him outside. Roofus had a great time with Sabrina and looks forward to when she comes over to watch him.
