“Lindsey was great! Our meet and great went well and i felt right away that she was perfect. She has the experience and background that made me comfortable. Lindsey followed all of my crazy long notes and specifications. She did everything we asked and how we wanted it. I was able to be at work and not have to worry about the care my (fur)kids were receiving, I received good updates and detailed post visit notes. We are very cautious on who we let in our home and with our dogs. But I am extremely happy and confident with Linsey. We already booked her for our next two visits.”
“Sari is a fantastic sitter for my somewhat shy and finicky older cat. She follows all the instructions I leave as well as providing a full accounting of each of her drop in visits. When I need a sitter for when I’m going to be out of town, I always check to see if she’ll be available first.”
About: I was born and raised to love dogs. I grew up in a household that bred Rottweilers and I could not be anymore grateful for the lessons of love and care for animals it instilled in me. I began caring for other's pets when I was in high school. Over a decade later I have had experience in short and long-term overnight care/house sitting, day-visits, walks, and some medication administration for pets of all ages and sizes. I have a special spot in my heart for senior pets and giving them the extra love and care they deserve. I know that every home and pet has unique needs and ways to be taken care of. I believe with clear communication I am able to approach each new pet care situation with confidence that we can both feel when you leave your loved ones in my care! I am currently just working part time and have lots of flexibility/weekend availability. I love to take early morning walks with dogs, especially given that it's summer I keep the heat in mind and have availability during the cooler hours. I have reliable transportation to come to your home! I am a very organized and clean person so if I am welcomed into your home I assure it will be treated with respect and care. For walks I believe I am very observant and aware of my surroundings, ensuring safety for both myself and your pet(s).
About: I’ve always had a dog since I was born until I moved to Buffalo for school. I currently work a full time hybrid job where I am home most days with a pretty flexible schedule. Due to recent life changes, I no longer have my own pet and am really missing having a buddy at home.**Child not always with me, she’s with me Sunday through Wednesdays (away all day during the week for work) but is great with animals and has been around a large variety her whole life :) She’s for sure my mini and loves the fur babies as well! I currently work a full time hybrid job where I am home most days with a pretty flexible schedule. Due to recent life changes, I no longer have my own pet and am really missing having a buddy at home. I currently live in a first floor apartment, but there is a fenced in dog area right behind my building and love to take walks around the neighborhood. I have always been around animals and have a strong love for them all. A family member also a top Rover sitter in the Canandaigua area that I have assisted with as well for several years.
“Angelina is absolutely fabulous! She's friendly and our dog loves her. She's always punctual and really cares about doing a good job. We're so glad we found her. We very highly recommend her!”
“Geannie was a wonderful pet sitter. She took good care of Rusty and sent photos and updates. She was punctual and spent plenty of time with him and also helped with making sure our kitties had some attention and a clean litter box. Easily to communicate with. Hope to have her care for him again.”
“Skylar lets my dog out at lunchtime 3 days a week and he enjoys her visits. She was helpful when a bandage came off a minor injury that my dog had. Overall she has been reliable and responsive.”
“Aracely is doing a great job with our Goldendoodle, Luna! She’s on time, always walks her and refreshes her water among many other things. We appreciate her hard work and dedication!”
About: I have owned two dogs and have lots of experience dog walking and dog sitting for dogs of all ages. I have been the sole care provider for my dog and have cared for her in all stages of life. I volunteer at Lollypop Farm as a dog worker and walk with dogs of all ages and sizes every week. I love spending time with each of the dogs and making sure they are well taken care of and feel loved. I work part time and remotely, so I have lots of flexibility and free time to spend with and care for your dog and to give them lots of attention. I can care for your dog at your home by creating a safe environment, showing your dog lots of care and love, and following specific instructions set aside for each individual pet.
About: I have experience of taking care of dogs of any age/size/breed/and energy. My current dog Lola is 16 years old and is very fragile and requires extra care and loving so I have a history dealing with older dogs. In addition my aunt has 3 yellow labs of different ages who I take care of and watch when she is not around. I consider myself in good shape so I can walk your dog however far they need. I am currently training to be a pilot and my schedule is very flexible. I can work around what ever schedule the pet owners prefer. People have entrusted me to pet/house sit before and I make sure to follow any rules the home owner has in place. I will leave zero mess and the only indication Ill leave that tells you I was at your house is a happy fur baby!
About: I’ve had my own pet-sitting business since I was 12 and have years of hands on experience caring for dogs. Most of my experience is with small and medium sized dogs, but I am also comfortable caring for larger dogs. I understand that every dog has their own personality, like us! I take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My job offers a flexible schedule, allowing me to make adjustments based on each dog’s individual needs and routine. I understand how important consistency is and will work closely with owners to create a schedule that keeps their dog comfortable and well cared for. Safety and trust are extremely important to me, both for each dog and their owner. I carefully follow all instructions and take time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and comfort level.
About: Hello! I am a PhD student at UofR who enjoys spending time outdoors and caring for pets. I'm turning to Rover to find new clients after previously babysitting both cats and dogs in my apartment building, whose owners have recently moved away. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks and hikes, and have experience with many animals, having spent most of my life on a farm. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and keep them happy and active! I am happy to provide references. As a student, my schedule is busiest midweek, but I have plenty of free time on weekends and can easily accommodate mornings and evenings. Mondays and Fridays are also more flexible, making them great days for drop-ins, walks, or house sitting visits. I want to make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I do have a car and can transport larger dogs if needed, but I usually prefer caring for pets in their own home. I can do drop-in visits, house sitting, and taking dogs on walks in your neighborhood or mine (wherever they feel most at ease).
About: I’ve had a golden retriever, Toby, since I was seven years old and I love spending every moment with him! I’ve dog sat for my family members and friends many times and have dealt with dogs of all sizes and breeds! I’m currently in school right now so I am available any weekday after 4:30 and all day on weekends. I am very flexible with my schedule. I have an open back yard where my dog can roam and I can play fetch with him, I also sometimes talk him to the dog park and run with him there!
About: The love I have for animals began when I was a child. Our family had every pet you could think of growing up as my mother was an avid pet lover! I have been pet sitting for people for 25 years and I specialize in caring for senior pets that have special needs. I have been a volunteer at a local animal shelter, Lollypop Farm, for more than 20 years. I have also taken a pet CPR class and am certified. People often tell me that I have a wonderful way with animals and that they can see how I love and respect them! Nearly 30 years ago my sister and I started working as a pet sitters after we were routinely asked if we would consider pet care for our friends when they saw how good we were with their dogs & cats & small animals. We decided to care for many pets in their homes while their owners were away, and they felt so at ease and comfortable knowing we were with them giving their furry friends lots of love and attention. I love meeting new four-legged friends and it’s a privilege to be asked to return time and time again. My sister has since moved out of state, but I haven’t stopped caring for people’s pets.I have cared for countless rabbits, Guinea pigs, birds, dogs, cats, fish, to name a few for friends, coworkers, neighbors … It makes my heart so happy to devote my time & attention to them while I can ❤️ I give lots of tender loving care and I have a lot of love & compassion towards them I truly enjoy being with animals, they are all special ❤️ I also like to garden, spend time with family or friends and look at nature.I live alone in a townhouse I have a nice, grassy yard and plenty of sidewalks for strolling . ( I even have a pet stroller for seniors) My parents also live nearby and they are so happy to meet my furry friends. During the weekends I am home & evenings and while I’m working during the week I am able to come home for a lunch check so your pet will never feel lonely! I can also take dog 1/2 day in my office at work 7 minutes away. I have been truly blessed all these years! I have no pets of my own currently so I love loving your babies all the more ❤️ I’m currently working full time able to come home at lunch & occasionally bring dog to my office. I actually love caring for pets & look forward to meeting & making new furry friends, they are all special to me! I have plenty of room in my townhouse & nice yard around me.We have a nice quiet neighborhood and plenty of sidewalks to walk & sniff things along the way!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fairport
This was our first time using Rover, so I was a little hesitant about leaving our animal house in someone else’s hands. But after meeting her, I immediately felt much more at ease. She took such great care of our dogs and cats (and fish!), checked in consistently, and sent us lots of pictures and updates while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pets and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. She is so sweet, and we would absolutely have her back again!
Geannie was a wonderful pet sitter. She took good care of Rusty and sent photos and updates. She was punctual and spent plenty of time with him and also helped with making sure our kitties had some attention and a clean litter box. Easily to communicate with. Hope to have her care for him again.
Christine did such a good job. She took great care of Rusty and sent photos throughout our time away. She was responsive whenever I messaged her about anything. Our house was just as clean as we left it. All of our furbabies seemed to really like her and enjoy all the pets and snuggles they got while we were gone. We hope she will be available again when we go out of town.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fairport stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fairport choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter 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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Fairport with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 sitter.
