“We recently moved and were nervous about leaving our cat and bearded dragon but Jamie did a great job of keeping us updated and sending pics. Traveling can be stressful as is and she gave us peace of mind that our babies were well taken care of. Will definitely book with her again :)”


“Jenny was so attentive and spoiled out cats rotten! She was great about checking in and sending pictures which I truly appreciate. She will definitely be my go to sitter! So glad she moved to my area!”


“Margaret was reliable and professional. I had a last minute medical issue with one of my cats right before leaving on a trip and Margaret was able to handle the medications and special care instructions with ease! She always responded quickly and provided lots of details about her visits. Would recommend her to anyone and will certainly be using her again!”


“Ashley is the best! She took great care of our kitty while we were away, I felt so comfortable knowing he was getting visits and play time! I loved the daily pictures and check ins. Ashley is so easy to communicate with and we already have her booked for our next trip!!! Highly recommend!!”


“Hannah is so amazing! I will definitely try to book with her whenever she is available! She goes above and beyond for my older cat (who can be a bit of a recluse) and was so sweet to her as well.”


About: My journey in animal care began in 2017 as a kennel technician, and over the past 8 years, I’ve grown into a skilled veterinary assistant with extensive experience caring for dogs, cats and exotic pets of all breeds and temperaments. When I go home, I hug my 2 cats and 2 dogs after a long days work. I also have owned a hedgehog who is now in heaven, and I had the pleasure of growing with and caring for my childhood dog who is also in heaven with my hedgie. From daily walks and enrichment to assisting in exams and treatments, I’ve had the privilege of supporting our furry friends through every stage of life. I’m trained in administering medications—whether it’s a pill, injection, or special diet—and I always prioritize comfort, safety, and trust. Whether your fur baby is playful, shy, or needs a little extra TLC, I bring patience, experience, and a whole lot of love to every visit. I work weekdays 7a-3p, so I am available M-F after 3-3:30p. Saturdays and Sundays I am usually away. I can answer any questions on availability and openings for walks and drop ins! I fully acknowledge that I am entering into your home and that alone is the biggest reason I go above and beyond on building trust with you and fur babies. Safety is my highest priority — I want everyone to feel safe before I ever step foot into your home. I require a meet and greet to start the process; this is to make sure your pet(s) get familiarized with my presence, then I assess compatibility after 1-2 bookings. If I’m concerned about temperament, we will next steps and gauge whether or not we can move forward with future bookings. There are times when pets display signs of stress or protective/territorial behaviors when a stranger enters their home, especially if it’s for the first time. While I’m comfortable caring for an array of temperaments, the last thing I want is your pet to be stressed and unhappy. I am transparent about this process upfront as I prioritize safety for all parties. Upon meeting you and your pet for the first time, I will ask you (many) questions and write all information provided down and go over everything with you before ending the meet and greet session. This will include questions regarding specialized care, diet, temperament, etc. I will also ask for an emergency contact and veterinarian information in the case there is an emergency while you’re not home. For all of my services I make sure to accurately follow all instructions provided with consistent text and picture updates. I NEVER touch anything in your home besides pet-related items disclosed at our meet and greet unless I have permission. After services are completed, I refill all food/water bowls, put back all pet related items such as food and toys where they belong, tidy up if permitted, and give your pets some extra TLC before leaving!

“Quinn is great with my older cat, Suzy! She was very patient and kind regarding the unique needs for my pet and she always spent a little more time than what was required to make sure everything was taken care of and to play with Suzy as well. Will definitely try to book with her whenever I can in the future!”


“Zuhal took great care of my cat, Tako. She kept me up to date on her visits and gave me plenty of pictures of my happy cat. I'll be out of town again this coming week, and Tako told me he's looking forward to seeing her again!”


“We were new to the area and needed a new sitter for our three cats when we were out of town. Kristin was amazing!!! It was so comforting to know that our cats were in such good hands. We received daily photos and updates and the cats seemed genuinely comfortable with her since the first visit. We’re already rebooking.”



About: Hi, my name is Rachel. I have been around all types of animals basically my entire life, dogs being my favorite of course. I've been around small dogs, average sized dogs and larger dogs. Because I'm a highly energetic person and love to run and play, I will be able to provide a great and fun environment to your pup. Since I've moved from home ( New York ) I am no longer around my family pets, whom I miss very much, Rover gives me an opportunity to make friends with your pup's, so for that I'm extremely greatful and excited to get started. I am eager to meet yourself and your fur child, and I'm even more excited to become their very good friend! ?

“Ginni was very easy to work with. She had great communication and sent updates and photos. When there was a question about some medication, she reached out immediately and I really appreciated how thoughtful she was in making sure my cat was getting the proper dosage. We came home to happy cats! Thank you, Ginni for allowing us to enjoy vacation knowing our cats were in great hands.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs for more than 20 years. I grew up with dogs in my family, I eventually moved out and decided to get a dog of my own. I’ve dog sat and dog walked for friends and family for years. I’ve been around dogs of all ages, and would be willing to treat yours as my own! My work schedule is a bit different. I work for the Syracuse Fire Department and we work 24hr shifts. On my 2 work days a week, I use family members or Rover for pet care. But I have 5 days off a week! So on those days off, I have plenty of time to care for the pups! My schedule does rotate weekly so I will just need to make sure I’m off the day pet care services are needed. I live in an apartment so I’m used to walking since I have to walk my own dog everyday. I usually walk her to the park around the corner or drive to trails/parks for walks and playtime. I would be willing to open my home to your dog and provide just as good care for them, as I do my own. I would be able to go to your house and take care of your dog just as well.

“Julianne was very friendly and SUPER patient with our extremely anxious dog, Charlie. Scheduling went smoothly, Julianne was flexible and worked with us despite our last minute booking! Julianne was very comfortable with Charlie - who can lack manners when first meeting her (a work in progress for us) which can be difficult for many given she is a relatively larger breed. She sent cute pictures and kept us updated on how everything was going. We are grateful!”


“Booking Chris to look after our Great Dane during our trip to St. Thomas is one of the best choice we made beyond choosing to go on the trip itself. Throughout the entire process... from the booking, to a pre-visit, and during the week, Chris was friendly, approachable, and helpful. He did 4 drop-in visits over the course of a 5-day week. With each visit he provided updates, pictures, and summaries. It was perfect for a family that missed their dog, but also had never relied on a person outside of the family to look after her. He was very easy to contact for whatever reason (dependent on weather or not we were in a remote place that had actual service) and he was not afraid to ask questions if necessary. We would use Chris again in a heartbeat and would encourage anyone else that needs his services to do so.”


“Jessica was amazing! She sent daily updates and pictures and was a fabulous house and cat sitter, and my cat warmed up to her right away. I greatly appreciated her attentiveness to my cat and to the wellbeing of my house and would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”


“Meghan has been wonderful with my two cats. She takes care of all their needs and gives me a very clear picture of their interactions during her visits. Of course, I love all the pictures.I highly recommend Meghan as your caregiver.”
