About: Our family loves animals. It’s evident when you drive up to our house and see the goats, rabbits, chickens, ducks, cats and dogs. We have lots of experience with lots of animals, at all stages of life and with administering medications. Now that the kids are all in school. I have extra time to spend with my 4 legged babies and yours. We enjoy hiking, long and/or short walks around Canandaigua. I am a responsible and respectful professional.

About: Hi! I’m a passionate animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all personalities and needs. I have been on Rover for several years and am starting up my business again. I LOVE being outdoors and am always happy to take dogs on walks, to the park, or even spend time by the lake. I have a 6-year-old chihuahua mix named Ghost, who I fostered before adopting. I completely understand how to support dogs who may be a little “sassy” and just need extra patience and love...because trust me, chihuahua's have BIG personalities! Ghost also has Addison’s Disease, which has given me several years of experience managing daily medications and have been trained by my veterinarian on how to administer his monthly injections. I’m confident and comfortable caring for pets with medical or special needs. I’m also a volunteer with Happy Tails (Ontario County Humane Society), where I continue to deepen my commitment to animal care. In addition to dogs, I have a cat of my own and am happy to care for cats too, whether that’s feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, or just providing plenty of snuggles. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority! I’m currently working from home with a flexible schedule and can work around your schedule! I’m happy to stop by whenever is convenient for you. I prefer at least a day notice in advance if possible. I will follow whatever instructions you provide. Does your pup need a walk? Does he/she need to play fetch in the backyard? Or does he/she just need cuddles? I’m happy to provide multiple levels of care because I care about your pup!

Elizabeth was great with our energetic dogs and getting them the exercise they needed. Her communication and photos eased our concerns about working with someone new. We’ll be happy to work with her again in the future!

About: Hello future employers, I am the best fit to make sure your pet gets the most care and love while under my watch. I am very friendly with pets, and have had much experience taking care of many at once since I was about 13. I also have experience house sitting as well, and make sure that I always show up on time, and be sure to always make sure the job is done correctly. You will have no worries and pets are my passion! We can do walks, hikes, swimming, even to a play day at the park, I am sure I will pamper your pooch. I Have a good amount of yardage to where your pet would have lots of running space as well! I always make sure to put my pets first as I would for yours! I’m currently just doing this for work since I am doing college full time online, so this job is perfect for me! I will make sure that the dog can go out and play in the yard as well as get lots of cuddles on the couch while i do some school work during the day! There is also lots of hiking trails in the area that take my dogs on frequently, so they would love it

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I provide personalized care for every pet, including puppy training reinforcement, senior pet support, medication administration, exercise, playtime, and consistent communication with owners through updates and photos. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine because I work full time with dogs and have over four years of hands-on experience. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I’m comfortable managing feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training reinforcement, and providing attentive, reliable care every day. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication if needed, and plenty of attention and companionship. I also make sure pets feel safe and comfortable while keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages. My experience working full time with dogs for over four years has helped me become confident with pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments.

About: I have worked with mostly dogs with walking and some training. I have also worked with cats, lizards, birds, and guinea pigs. Any kind of animal works for me. Pet care fits in most of my schedule. I work a 3-11 shift but am able to fit sitting in when not at work. I love animals and enjoy their company. I love walking and hiking and animals make the time even more relaxing. I cannot have pets in my home but can travel to your home to watch your pets in their environment where they can be more comfortable. I can walk or care for them any way that is needed. I'm a fast learner.

About: I always loved having pets growing up. I grew up in the country so we had a lot of space for animals to be able to run around and be outside. Dogs, cats, birds...practically every creature you can imagine. Currently I have a cat of my own, and a friend’s dog who I watch fairly regularly. It works out well because I’m a very active person who likes to get outside as much as possible—hiking when the weather permits and bringing him along with me. This is in part due to my ever-changing, flexible schedule. I have a few set shifts during the week, but for the most part I make my own hours and I have time to be available pretty much whenever I am needed!

About: Canandaigua local, avid hiker, and lover of the outdoors and animals. I work for an outdoor company as a leader, and own a small one person cleaning company which meeting my clients animals gives me so much joy, less cleaning more animal focused. I lost my pit bull a few years back so I miss him terribly. I want to provide incredible care for anyone’s animals because I know how stressing it can be when you want to go and enjoy life but also want your dog to enjoy life too! I make that easy for you and your dog! I dog sit for my clients and for my friends also! I am flexible, loving and take so much care of all animals I am around. I am a healer also, dogs love reiki! Any specifics your dogs need, I work around my schedule and provide it for them and for your peace of mind. I prefer to stay in animals homes so they feel most comfortable as I am used to doing that for my clients, but I go with the flow! I work around noon to 8 pm, I take the trek to Rochester 5 days a week so if you’re local to Rochester I have time in between to check on your animal bestie— usually I do longer stays while clients are on vacation or gone for the summer, anything really works. I usually have 2-3 days off, and can usually adjust my schedule as I need to. I love a good list— and support your animal as directed. Anything to make your animal feel as comfortable and happy as possible! I’ve stayed 2 months in a clients home, and kept watch + it’s always awesome to have someone take care of your animal and your home!

Aracely let out and fed my puppy midday for 2 months until the end of my school year. She took great care of my little guy. There were two times that she canceled morning of and, with that late notice, I was not able to leave work or get anyone else to take him out. I understand life happens but my little guy did go to the bathroom in his crate both of those days. If I could give 4 1/2 stars, I would!

About: Hi there! My name is Michelle and I have loved animals my whole life. I have raised horses, dogs, cats, and goats. I have a tremendous amount of respect and love for our 4 legged babies. In my life animals are my therapy. They just make me happy. I think every animal should receive the same unconditional love that they give to us. I have been looking for a way to make some extra money for my family and when I came across the Rover site I thought "oh my goodness this is definitely for me!" When your baby is in my care you will NEVER have to worry that he/she is getting all the love and attention they would be getting at home. I am open to a trial run before your vacation to make sure you are comfortable with me as well as your baby being happy in my care. I have no issues taking care of elderly or special needs dogs also. I have had a dog myself with seizures and a dog with hip dysplasia. I look forward to meeting you and your baby.

About: I have owned Dogs all my life. I believe that immediate recall is the most important tool for all Dog owners. I also believe in challenging Dogs brains with games like find it hide and seek. A tired Dog at the end of each day is a happy Dog. I exercise my Dog every day. I have a Doberman she is the start and end to my Day. With high energy Dogs they need lots of body and mind stimulation to maintain a healthy Dog . I treat each Dog as if they were my own. Well trained well exercised and most importantly immediate recall. If your Dog doesn’t have immediate recall when I meet them. They will the first time I watch them. To me that is the most significant training tool for every Dog owners including myself.
