“Elizabeth is great with my cat Dasher. She is reliable, takes great care of Dasher when I am away and is flexible when I need to make a last minute change. She’s been taking care of Dasher for the last couple of years and is my go-to for times I need to be away.”


“Callie was great! She was super prompt and stayed the entire time(I’ve had other sitters not so this was extra appreciated) and June seemed happy in all the pics! Would recommend and use again!!”


“Christina is top notch! She is so kind and caring my cat instantly took to her. She took amazing care of her and even brought in my mail and watered my plants. I had zero worries while I was out of town. 10/10 would recommend!!!”

About: Hi, I’m Daniel! I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid, and it's always been a passion of mine. I currently have 3 amazing dogs of my own, so I know just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I also get a little extra insight into animal health and behavior thanks to my girlfriend of 6 years, who works in a veterinary clinic. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some good old belly rubs, your pup will be treated like family with me! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to be available anytime your pet needs attention. Whether it’s a mid-day walk, playtime, feeding, or just some company throughout the day, I’m always around to give pets the care and affection they deserve. Having my own dogs, I’m already used to a routine that revolves around their needs - and I’m more than happy to include yours in that too! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own familiar environment. I follow your instructions closely - whether it’s feeding schedules, walk routines, medication, or playtime - to make sure your pet’s day goes as smoothly as possible. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family, giving them the attention, companionship, and care they need while you're away.
“Bri is an AMAZING pet sitter. The best one we have had (by far!). She gave us great summary of each visit, plenty of photos and a lot of love to the cats. She understood our cats needs and respected their own individuality! I'd recommend Bri to any of my friends ?”


About: I have walked dogs at the shelter, cared for family’s and friend’s cats and dogs, and worked at a vet. I grew up with 4 dogs, 1 cat, and 3 birds. I will keep you updated on everything that happens so you have a peace of mind. I am willing to take the dog to the park or follow any specific instructions. I am flexible with scheduling; we can work out a time that is convenient for you! I look forward to working with you to hanging out with your best buddy!
“We had a wonderful experience with Marideth. She was incredibly attentive and caring towards our little boy, ensuring he was well taken care of during our absence. We returned home to find everything just as we left it, a testament to her respect for our home. Additionally, her regular text updates and photos kept us informed and reassured about our pet’s well-being. We highly recommend her services.”
“Kassandra took great care of my boys who are very shy and little standoff-ish. She ensured they were well taken care of and was very patient with them. It was right when I recently moved into a new house as well so tensions were high but she navigated it well”

“Jordan did a great job checking in on my cat and made sure to send the cutest photos along the way. The whole process was extremely easy leaving me very at ease. I am definitely using her services again moving forward and would recommend her to everyone!”
“Dejah was a new sitter when I booked her, and after requesting several sitters, she was the only one who both got back to me and could sit my cat in such a short turnaround time. It was a nervy experience being my first time on Rover letting a stranger take care of my cat for a week while I was out of the area, but she couldn’t have done a better job. She was super polite, prompt at responding, did everything that was asked of her (and more), took great photos, and went above and beyond the 30 minute bookings each and every time. My cat, who is typically shy of strangers, loved her the second she met her, and was very interactive with her in the brief moments we saw, which she only does with those who she feels safe around. As a new sitter and charging a fair rate, Dejah couldn’t have done any better job than one who had hundreds of 5 stars; the level of service and attention to detail makes it so that if I ever need a cat sitter again, I have one I will always contact first. Book her without hesitation!!!”

About: I have take care of dogs and cats since I can remember. I’ve always had family pets that I looked after. Recently I started to pet sit professionally and have looked after pets with all manners of personalities and needs. I am currently working full time with a hybrid schedule. Monday through Wednesday in the office and Thursday through Friday remote. I am free every weekend and anytime after 5pm. Because each pet parent is unique and has their own ways to raise and care for their pets I strictly adhere to their rules and guidelines. That includes areas they have their pets walk and house rules for those that request house sitting.
“Katie was fantastic with Viola, who can be a bit timid when meeting new people. Katie’s communication throughout the drop in process was prompt and she sent over pictures of Viola during her visit. I absolutely recommend Katie and will be requesting her services again!”

About: Besides caring for my childhood dog, Houston, since I was 11 years old, I formally became very involved in pet care during college. I joined an organization called 4 Paws for Ability that raises and trains service dogs for veterans and children with disabilities. I began as a sitter for the primary trainers on campus, watching their dog for a couple of hours during the day. Beginning my junior year, I began raising Red through 4 Paws, a 10 week old Golden-lab. I raised Red, while juggling class and work, until he was 1.5 years old and went off to advanced training. He now works as a facility dog at Dayton Children's Hospital. Since graduating, I remain involved with pet sitting for family and friends. I have sat my boss's daughter's cats (interesting, I know) and my aunt's puppy for a week. I love taking pictures of any and all animals, so expect photo updates often! I currently am a first year medical student here in Buffalo. Class is usually over by mid-day during most week days, making me very available for a walk or drop in visit. Furthermore, my weekends are pretty open for the time being, so I'd love to keep your pets company as a house sitter and have a relaxing (or active) weekend with them. I am very observant when it comes to things that are potentially harmful in reach of the pet. I will ensure your pet does not get into anything they shouldn't! Also, I have experience with ensuring dogs are safe in their kennel prior to leaving so your fur baby and home are safe.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 8 years old and have experience with many different types of dogs, as well as other animals. I’m very thorough and attentive when it comes to understanding and meeting each pet’s individual needs. I have a deep love and appreciation for animals, especially dogs, and I always want them to feel safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for while they’re with me! I currently work remotely as a legal assistant, which gives me a flexible and open schedule for dog sitting and overnight stays. I’m able to bring my work equipment with me, so I can comfortably work from your home while keeping your pup company throughout the day. I also nanny part-time for about two hours a day, but otherwise my schedule is very flexible! I always try to keep pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll make sure they’re fed on their usual schedule, have plenty of fresh water, get regular bathroom breaks and exercise, and receive lots of attention and affection. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions regarding medications, walks, playtime, or other needs. When staying in a client’s home, I treat both the pet and the home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
About: Ive had three cats and two dogs in my life. Currently I have two cats and they are my world. In many instances I've had a cat or dog that doesn't like anyone besides family come up and become my new best friend. Also have been trusted to watch multiple friends animals while on vacation because they loved our time together more than anyone else. During the week it would be a drop in sitting with minimal overnight stays after work. Which means its not out the question but not consistent. Weekends I have more flexibility for overnight stays. My cats are indoors, fed a heathly diet, and stimulated. While at the clients house its dependent on the type of animal and if the animal requires special care.
About: Various friends and family members have entrusted me to care for their animals and they know they can rely on me because I know their animals needs and I follow their rules exactly I work full time 1st shift for a packaging company and I work over 40 hours per week. My schedule is Monday-Friday 7am-3pm. I currently take public transportation and bike everywhere. My new apartment allows cats only. I currently don’t have any pets in my care, but I have watched various friends and family member’s pets while they had to go away for a few days. My new neighborhood is very pet friendly.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for family and friends for the past three years. I am a pet lover with a caring heart and am very glad to play, walk and care for pets as I am away from mine for school. I have a medical background and am currently a medical student. I am currently a student at Jacob’s Medical School, with classes primarily in the morning but lots of flexible, free time in the afternoon and evening. I am open to pet-sitting at one’s property but cannot have pets at my apartment. I am open to pet-sit, feed, walk, etc as needed per pet!

Jenna really is the best, and she’s always my number 1 choice when I need a sitter! I never have to worry when I go out of town because I know my kitties are in good hands. She makes sure to send me updates during every check in along with pictures/videos, and I always come how to two happy cats after. Thanks Jenna!!

It's my first time having Meg as my cats' sitter and she did not disappoint. She is so much hands on to them and she talks to them like I do. I forgot to specify some instructions on her first day and my Ahlee threw up, and she took care of everything. Other cat sitters I got had just sat and didn't interact with them after they give food and have cleaned the litter box, but Meg would try her best to pet and play with them everytime she visits. We are booking her again for our December trip.

This is our second time using Amanda for our cats and she is just lovely. We have anti social cats I don't think she's ever even seen, though she did send me a picture of some eyeballs peeking at her from the stairs! Even though she doesn't get to see and pet the boys, she still comes over twice a day and makes them their Friskies soup and even leaves them little Temptations piles. Amanda is very sweet in person and we absolutely will be booking her again whenever we go away.

Elizabeth is great with my cat Dasher. She is reliable, takes great care of Dasher when I am away and is flexible when I need to make a last minute change. She’s been taking care of Dasher for the last couple of years and is my go-to for times I need to be away.

Xava was fantastic! She was so attentive and genuinely caring toward my dog. She radiates confidence, and I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care. I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter and will definitely be reaching out to her next time!

Martha was so kind and attentive with my cat, Sophie. She made sure Sophie was fed and played with and sent lots of photos. She even went the extra mile and cleaned up Sophie’s mess when she wrecked my apartment. I’ll definitely be booking with Martha again when I go out of town!

Emma was wonderful with Knox! She followed all of our instructions, kept us updated throughout her visits, and sent the sweetest photos. Knox clearly loved having her around. We felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such great hands and would 100% use Emma again!

Ciara is everything you could ask for in a pet sitter and so much more!!! It’s a lot easier to find reliable dog lovers than cat on Rover, so I was extremely lucky to find Ciara! I have never felt so confident and secure about leaving my cats in the care of another person, I was finally able to enjoy my vacation without constantly worrying. It is an amazing feeling and I couldn’t have ever expected it. I am forever thankful for Ciara’s kindness and cat hearted spirit. She made even my anxious baby fearless and cuddly. I will absolutely be requesting for her services again!!
