Pet Sitting in Groveland

About: I’ve taken care of dogs both big and small and have most experience regarding senior dogs as I have my own as well, and even puppies. I also am a lover of walking/hikes and love to bring any dog along with me! I currently have a fairly open schedule with just two classes during the week for only an hour each monday-thursday but can come in the morning afternoon or evening around those classes anytime! I have experience with a leash for walking as well as crate experience as well if required. In clients homes I always make sure to keep a close eye on pets and follow any guidelines homeowners have set whether it be a leash etc. I also always make sure to clean up if need be especially with cats and food haha. At my own home there is no fence but I am always sure to keep an eye on the pets.

“Vicki was great with my two dogs! Communication was continuous, which allowed me to have peace of mind, while I was away. I will definitely be utilizing Vicki’s services in the future and I would highly recommend this sitter.”

About: My family always had border collies growing up. I also used to help out at a collie kennel when the owner was traveling. I am open to dogs that are kid-friendly. My husband and I both work full-time and are gone from 8 am to 5 pm. I am available on weekends to take care of your dog. My yard is fenced in and we are a family of five who will give your dog lots of attention and be sure to get it outside for some exercise.

About: I have experience walking, playing and taking care of our 15 year old black lab Jake! He sadly passed away. He lived a long happy life! I'm very active and have lots of energy! My kids do as well! We love animals! We will treat your pet/s as part of our family! Treats will be provided and clean drinking water! Your pets will be given plenty of attention in my care. I enjoy long walks so you can be assured your dog/puppy will get plenty of exercise! I'm willing to help potty train if training mats/pads are provided! Look forward to hearing from you! 😊 I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I'm not currently available for boarding or doggy day care😢 Just walks, visits, and home stays! ☺️ I can easily crate your pet/s if you prefer, just need you to provide the crate or gates.

About: **More then happy to negotiate prices** I have taken care of dogs, cats, and some barn animals since 2016 (or before that!). I have worked in the veterinary field since 2021; receptionist, boarding team, assistant, and manager. I am certified to do therapy exercises with dogs and similar pets. I have experience with medically complex/special needs pets. One of my current dogs are dog-selective and I have had fear-free training, which makes me comfortable with animals who need behavioral accommodations. I am comfortable medicating pets (oral, topical, and injectable). I do work full time, but when ever I am not at work and I am able to take care of more animals I will! As long as our schedules match I can care for your pet. I do not have the ability to care for pets in my house. But in your home I can follow any rules/schedules to make sure your pet is comfortable, medically taken care of, and happy! I am comfortable using the following tools: crates, harness, gentle leaders, prong collars, training collars, and different procedures required for medication administration.

“Mallory did a wonderful job with our cats, who quickly began to greet her at the door each visit! When we returned after 4 days, it was as though we had only gone shopping. Mallory reported on her visits and sent photos each time. We will definitely”

About: Hi! My name is Matty, and I have been owning for and caring for various species of pets for most of my life, from dogs and cats, to horses and hamsters. I currently own a dog and a gecko! I trained my own dog, and have dog sat for various breeds and temperaments of dogs over the years. My own dog is a rescue, so I understand dogs with certain reactivity issues or fears. My schedule is pretty wide open until April 2026. Please contact me with specific questions about dates or times. I am a park ranger for 6 months of the year, so I am in the area until early spring 2026. As a lifelong pet owner myself, and someone who has also relied on pet sitters over the years, I understand how important pet safety and comfort is. Keeping your pet safe is my number 1 goal. I rely on positive reinforcement when working with and caring for animals. I believe in being both gentle and confident is the key to successfully working with animals.

About: I've been around animals my entire life. I had 2 dogs and a cockatiel growing up that I helped care for. I have personally owned dogs, rats, fish, rabbits, chickens and ducks. I also used to foster small animals for a local rescue and have found fantastic homes for over 50 small animals. I work a few hours a day from home so I have plenty of time to interact and take care of your pets & fur babies. I'm available most days and nights. I am self-employed and work from home so I can take care of your pets needs at any time of the day since my schedule is flexible. I personally have 2 dogs, a rabbit, chickens and ducks at my home so there are plenty of things to help keep your pets occupied and happy. I also used to foster small animals for a rescue I helped out with. My yard is unfenced, but I live on a quiet street and have an open area across from my home to play fetch or throw a frisbee with your dogs and mine. In regards to caring for pets in your own home I follow any directions you give me for food/treat schedules, how often they need to go outside, things your pets can and cannot do, etc.

About: I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I can take care of cats or dogs and will love them like they are my own! Animals are my passion in life and I love to spend my free time taking care of them. I work Monday-Thursday but am available after 5:00PM on those days and any time Fridays and Saturdays. I currently have two cats of my own who I love to spend my time with as well. I am experienced in safely harnessing, walking and crating dogs. I also have owned animals my whole life and am aware of their boundaries and the fact that all animals are different.

About: I have had cats and dogs growing up. I would play fetch with my dogs all the time and just hang with my cats watching TV I work full time at a hospital but I do get Tuesdays off every week and don't work ever other weekend and every other friday With living in town I do leash my dogs when she does come down from my mom's. I do also put my cats in a backpack when going for walks

About: I've worked with pets of every shape and size and I've owned a dog or cat for the majority of my life. Juno, my last dog, I cared for so much that I brought him from Australia back to America when I moved back home after studying abroad. I've owned virtually every type of pet from hamster to lizard over my life and I know how to react to difficult situations. I've even saved Juno's life on more than one occassion (Australia has poisonous blowfish) so I have a wide range of experience. I work another part time job which I have time to fit my love of pet care in between during most days given my flexible schedule. I will ensure the environment is perfectly secure and safe for the pet with no possible exits for them to escape. I would make sure they're within my sight 100% of the time and be sure to give them as much attention as they want.

About: I have had dogs my whole life. I adopted my first dog as an adult about 6 years ago, and have since raised three dogs and multiple cats. I am comfortable with large dogs (I own a 90 lbs black lab) as well as administering medications and management of high need dogs. I work from home, so while I am caring for your pets I have the flexibility to take them out whenever they need and make sure they are enriched and cared for. I have a fairly flexible work from home job, so while pet sitting I will be with your pets for the majority of the time. My own dogs are all high needs. I am experienced with reactive and anxious dogs, and have worked through significant behavioral concerns within my own pack. Let me know what your pets need to feel safe and comfortable!

About: My family used to breed doberman pinchers for years, i’ve had 3+ dogs in my house at a time for my whole life, we have cats, horses and… a bird. I also work with a shelter fostering pregnant moms and keeping the puppies for 8 weeks before finding them forever homes. I am a high school student in sports but always make time for work. I can work any day after around 2 and can work any nights other than mondays depending on my schedule from week to week. We have 30 acres of land for lots of playtime and can crate your animals if needed. We have 3 friendly dogs who love friends and playtime. We also have an outside heated kennel with 2 separate inside/outside kennels.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and I love going on walks, playing, and snuggling. I am very knowledgeable about the care that dogs need! I am working an 8-5 over the summer, but will be available in the morning and after work for check ins or walks! I also have an hour lunch break that will allow me to check in with your pet(s) depending on how close I am to you! I can crate your dog if needed and do all necessary tasks! I can follow your routine easily, so that it won’t be a big adjustment for your pet(s).

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was little. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets while they are away. Over the summer I will be working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your dog! I’m available most weekdays in the mornings and evenings, and weekends on request. I will care for your pets in your home as you wish. I am willing to play with your dog, walk them, and care for them.

About: Megan- lover of all things with a beating heart; avid nature enthusiast. Have cared for pets personally and privately since I was 10. Clients relied on me for potty breaks and basic daily care. I have cat-sit as well as horse-sit. Making sure the pets are happy at all times and being engaged in their surroundings is a goal for me. Have trained several of my own dogs - I have 3 - and several dogs in the family & friends. I understand levels of obedience and train ability differ from animal to animal and have the patience to work among your animals needs. Have worked at doggie daycare and a dog kennel extensively in my career. Have administered plenty of dog medications. Bryanna - kind hearted, nurturing individual. Have been enjoying the company of my dogs and others’ pets since about 2010. Have dog-sat & cared for some wild pets, even chickens and snakes! Brought a tiny blind kitten back to life. Had roughly 2 years of basic grooming experience. Nail trimming/dremel, ear cleaning, brushing, bathing. Went on to work at a dog kennel, relocated to Buffalo, and worked at another dog kennel (the same one as Megan!) and learned even more about body language and behavior. Looking forward to meeting the sweet pets! We usually take our 3 dogs out for socialization purposes at least twice a day including walking, playing, training, public stimulation. We have a very open schedule and can almost always assist whenever a client needs. We live closely to multiple public parks, Lake Ontario, Canalside, etc. Our 3 dogs enjoy everywhere we have taken them and we hope that your pets will enjoy these places too. We do offer pet sitting at your home, we would request that we have a way to enter the home and if any products are specific to YOUR PET that they are provided for our use. (Example prescription food, medications, enrichment toys) The house sitting details will be thoroughly worked through with the homeowner beforehand.

About: I've taken care of animals since I was in high school. I deeply enjoy walking dogs, taking care of cats, and ensuring that each animal has what they need to succeed and thrive. I am a college student with mostly morning classes. I am available for walks and drop-ins in the greater Rochester area around Henrietta, extending south to Geneseo and Lakeville. Care for pets in homes involves putting the pet and pet owners' needs first, and balancing environmental, dog, and personal needs well. I ensure this by clear communication with owners, responsibility for myself and for the care and well-being of your pets, and setting clear expectations (and treats!) with pets.
