Dog Sitting Irondequoit

About: I grew up with cats and dogs! Very much a huge animal lover, and I’m the type of person to wave to any dog/cat I see on my walks around the city. I’ve always considered my pets to be part of the family. I’ve dog sat for many family members and family friends, and I approach it with a great deal of love and respect. Back in 2023 I had to put my best friend German Shepard down, and I haven’t found it in me to get a new companion yet. I’d love to give your dog/cat some love and attention! So I work 8:30-5 every day, but I am available to walk/check in/feed your pets anytime before or after work. I’m very flexible and am willing to do what I need to do to make sure your pets are taken care of. Although I’m unable to keep an animal at my apartment in Rochester, I have a lot of experience in walking dogs, taking care of all animals, and I’m very good at following instructions and taking care of your pets the way you want.

About: Have had dog(s) since age 10. Love to get down and dirty on the floor with them and play at their level. They bring me joy and i to them. Happy to drop in and play or take them on a walk, feed them, keep them company. Can stop in before work, after, evening, maybe a lunch break. Flexible. Live in Penfield, work in Henrietta. Hoping to help others in need and get extra pet time in the process. I Enjoy walking and playing and giving attention to the furry friends. Will follow instructions and devote energy and attention and care to those animals in need of it. Everyone is busy with their schedules so hoping to help alleviate parental stress and add pet joy.

“Joey is amazing with all my animals. My Cane Corso takes special introducing and not everyone I introduce him to takes the job. He liked Joey from the first day. I actually have a little farmstead with several types of animals, including a horse, a goat, an emu, over 50 chickens and other types of fowl. I even feed some of the wildlife! Joey does all of it. I get great pics and I'm always so happy with the detailed list he leaves of all the chores and extras that he does. He even remembers things that I forget to mention sometimes! Number one call for me all the time is Joey. Besides, he gave me a very reasonable farmstead rate. I highly recommend this sitter, especially if you have animals not listed on Rover!”

About: I grew up with a great dane, and then my family adopted 3 dogs of different sizes after that. I’ve been surrounded by, and taken care of dogs my entire life growing up in Rochester. I have worked for local dog daycare and boarding facilities as well. My location provides a good place to socialize with other dogs as well if needed, just minutes from several parks and open land. A fIexible schedule allows me to work with people to meet their specific needs, and take the necessary time to be thorough. I enjoy the process of working with dogs and understanding their personality. I use positive reinforcement techniques to reward behavior and maximize dog comfort. I currently work afternoons, and am a night owl. I spend my mornings drinking coffee or walking dogs, and evenings helping friends with pet care who work late nights in health care, law enforcement, etc. While I cannot board dogs overnight in my apartment building, I have experience boarding within owners homes. I know the stress of finding a private care provider, and offer meet and greet beforehand to make sure pet parents feel at ease. I also provide normal drop in walking/care while owner is away.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life especially bigger dogs like German shepherds. But I recently got a black lab golden mix and would love to bring him over for a puppy play date:) I’m currently working full time but I can make a visit either before or after I get out to play with your pets and make sure they get the care they need! It would definitely brighten up my day as well before going in and give me something to look forward to after:) I have a friendly golden lab mix to help keep your fur babies company if you would like. He loves to play and is such a sweetheart

About: I’ve taken care of my dog as well as other owners’s dog. People I know around me are willing to trust me with their dogs. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time after 2pm. I can also come in later of the day if there’s any needs. I lived in a pet-friendly apartment with an explicit pet park built inside the apartments. I had experience walking a grown German Shepard so I can crate vast majority of dogs.

“Natalie is dependable. So reassuring to know my kitties are in good hands.”

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was 15. Family, neighbors, friends, and even bosses have turned to me for their pet care. I have a 9-5 job. I am available Sundays and Saturdays, and have flexibility on Mondays and Thursdays. I may also be flexible on an as-needed basis. When I pet-sit for others, I respect/adhere to their criteria (e.g., indoor cats are kept indoors, dogs needing fences are kept in fenced areas, etc.). With my own cats, I make sure they get all the cuddle and playtime they need. I do the same when dog-sitting (my sister's Golden Retriever is a bundle full of energy!) I feed my cats wet food twice a day and ensure that their dry food and water bowls are kept filled. When pet-sitting (dogs or cats), I always follow the feeding routine as requested by the owner. I always pay close attention to pet behavior, being mindful of any unusual behavior. I make sure to let the owner know of such behavior to determine whether any emergency action is needed. I am also very chatty with all pets, so rest assured that they won't feel lonely!

About: I grew up on farms in the south, so I've been around animals my whole life. I moved to Rochester specifically because of how dog friendly it is. I think dogs deserve to be treated like family because they are our family! I work from home taking care of pets is my main job. If i could fill every hour of the week with animals, I would! I give every dog the time and attention they deserve. I have a fenced in back yard and a friendly dog of my own to keep yours company. I send pictures throughout the day to let you know how your pup is doing!

About: I have always had some pet in my life. Growing up I had a family dogs! I personally had birds, fish, hamsters, guinea pigs, cats and rats. I love any type of animal. Because of all of the animals I have had in my life I know how to take care of any animal big or small. I truly love animals and this is why I want to help you with whatever your animal care needs are! I have pet sat for friends and family starting in high school, I can handle multiple animals at one time. I understand that each and every animal has different personalities and needs and I am willing to help in any way possible to make sure your animal is comfortable with me. So then that makes you feel comfortable that your fur child is well loved and taken care of. I am a wedding coordinator, so weekends are a bit tougher for me, but I can usually make things work and weekdays I have flexibility! Willing to work with you, to do what’s best for your fur babies. *I am open to boarding in my home, if your dog is crate trained.* Open communication to see what’s best for you and your pet. Any pet I take care of will be treated as my own with so much love!

About: I’ve had pets my whole life. As an adult, I have pet sit dogs and cats. I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages. I have raised both of my dogs from a young age, and I trained both of them. One of my dogs is currently an elder, so I know how much extra tlc they need. I currently work from home, so I can be home all day with your babies if they need it. I have a dog park on property, so they can have frequent breaks and off leash running time. I have a dog park on property, and I have two kennels. One medium and one large. I also have a baby gate that can be put up to keep anyone apart if necessary.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and no two are the same. It’s my priority to care for your pet’s specific needs to ensure their comfort❤️ I mostly work evenings so I’m best suited for morning and afternoon walks. For house sitting, same availability applies but I can accommodate nightly check ins. It’s essential to me that your pet feels comfortable! It can be stressful for them to away from you so I’ll do my best to keep their routines in their home environment.

About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong dog lover who knows that our pets our family. I am a senior dog owner to two puggles and they are treated like royalty. I provide reliable dog walking and pet sitting with plenty of care, patience and playtime. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or some extra love while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I'm also comfortable feeding, light grooming (brushing), and giving extra snuggles if needed. I'd love to help you care for your furry friend like I do my own! I am currently getting a second masters degree online and I am home most of the time (info for pet parents who are looking for services). I take my dogs on lots of walks each day to get all of their sniffs in! I live in a townhouse and every time we go outside my dogs are on leashes. They go on about five walks a day. I would love to ensure your dog gets adequate exercise too!

“As always thanks for everything and fun time with the dogs!! I will like to book June drop in session. Let me know if you are getting busy or if I can check your schedule. If there are bad times, I will work around your schedule. Have a great weekend 😀”

“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.”

About: Hi everyone! My name is Reese and I am a junior nursing major at St. John Fisher University! I am available for all dog/cat/etc. pet needs throughout the school year (September 7th - December 16th and January 11th - May 1st) minus a few random days/weeks for school breaks. I have been pet sitting for multiple years now including walks, overnights, and drop-in visits! I am comfortable caring for multiple animals at once so please don’t hesitate to reach out to me! I would love to spend some time with your pets while away from mine back home! I currently have classes pretty heavy Mondays and Wednesdays with breaks throughout the day to stop by! Tuesdays, I am done by noon. Thursdays are my clinical days so that would be the one day with a long stretch away from the home and then Friday-Sunday, I am completely free! I have had no issues so far with my schedule conflicting with pet care and is always a top priority! As I am a college student still living on campus, comfortability with me staying at your home would be a must (for overnights)! I also believe it keeps the dogs/cats/etc. calmer while their parents are away as they are still in their natural “environment” and only one of their daily norms is changing….ME!!

About: I love all types of animals, I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, horses, and even small pets such as rats, guinea pigs and hamsters. I can’t wait to take care of your pet I work part time almost everyday around 4-7 hours a day. The rest of the day is my free time. Weekends I can do any time needed, for example 8am-12am I play with pets inside and out, feed them, give clean water, and take nice long walks. I can even take your pet to the park!
