“Colleen was great over the weekend my dog ended up being sick witn pneumonia and she sent messages and pics while I was at work- it’s nice to have a reliable person to check in on my dogs when I can’t be at home. I plan on using her again for sure.”

“Very responsive, excellent communication, and attentive while looking after my cats. I am very pleased with Samuel. I will definitely continue working with him. Highly recommend Samuel if you have cats.”

“Nicole was great! Our dog Indy has separation anxiety so we asked Nicole to come by and keep him company while we were out. She was totally tuned in to his needs, and we came back to a super calm, happy pup. Can’t wait to work with her again!”

“Nicole is awesome! She gives our dogs lots of love and treats, and makes sure everyone gets their bathroom break and a walk in the middle of the day. It helps that she has experience at a veterinarian’s office and dog training as well. Nicole’s very accommodating and I highly recommend her to others looking for pet care!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. It was last minute and she came to meet my dogs and they loved her. She was amazing for the times I need her to dog sit. Good communication and she sent me so many photos of the visit. Couldn’t have asked for better.”

“Kara was wonderful! It was my first time using Rover for cat drop-ins and she made the whole process stress-free. She was very gentle and understanding when it came to dealing with my shy boy. She was very professional and quick to respond, as well. I'll definitely reach out to Kara again if I need another sitting. Thanks so much!”

“Kylie is our go to sitter for our cats. She takes very good care of them and their eating issues. Thanks so much for allowing us to enjoy time away without having to worry about our little furballs.”

About: I am a licensed veterinary technician. I am currently a pre-vet student at SUNY Binghamton. I am dedicating my life to taking care of animals. I have had a variety of pets as well as working with them in a veterinary setting such as cats, dogs, lizards, rabbits, and small mammals, just to name a few. I have experience with administering oral medications as well as injections. I have experience with dog training. I have worked with my own dogs from puppy classes to advanced training. Therefore, I am able to help you with training issues. I excited to care for your fur babies as if they are my own. I am currently on summer break from SUNY Binghamton. I am looking for a part time job at a veterinary hospital. This leaves me for your fur babies. My schedule is flexible. As a licensed veterinary technician, I am fear free certified. This means one of my jobs is to reduce the stress for your fur babies. I also have experience with working with anxious dogs and cats.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. I love animals of all kinds and as a pet owner know how important pets are to the family and how stressful it can be when being away from them! I work remotely full time 7:30-3:00pm. I have time for short breaks/walks for pets during working hours and evenings after work for lots of play time, walks, etc. I will follow your schedule and routines as you would if you were home with your pets to the best of my ability. I like to know what your typical schedule and pets needs are.
About: I have extensive experience pet sitting for friends in the past, including feeding, letting out/walking, and sometimes onboarding their pet during their travels. I am looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies :)! I am available mornings before work and evenings, with possibility to drop by during the day for a quick check in. I can be reached easily in case of emergencies as I check my phone often. In my own home, I offer your pet a safe, separate room aside from my other pets so that they can get their bearings without too much excitement. Ideally, a piece of home for them to smell like a toy or a blanket they enjoy. My cats are quite friendly, especially with other cats, and can be introduced slowly if your pet shows interest. In your home, I make sure your cat is comfortable with me being in the room with them. I keep my distance otherwise but a careful eye on them to make sure they are still eating and healthy until your return, and try to offer them a treat/toy they like to gain their affection and trust.

About: For nearly 20years I’ve been caring for animals of all types. I have experience with Dogs, Cats, Rodents, Reptiles, and just about everything in between. Family, Friends, Neighbors, Co-Workers and Clients have relied on me to care for their furry family members & I’ve had furry family members of my own my whole life. I have worked with all ages and sizes, and am comfortable with pets with disabilities or medical needs. For the past 16years I’ve cared for people with disabilities as a Direct Support Professional. I am currently doing that as a part-time night shift, so I am available most days and eves, during the week and on weekends! I have loved many forms of my own pets and understand the importance of safety and trust that comes with caring for another’s loved one. I currently plan to do pet walking, play dates, and sitting in your home. May consider overnight stays. May consider boarding on case by case basis. Always open for requests, and again, will consider on a case by case basis.
“Hannah was AMAZING! She treated my dogs as if they were her own, even my small chihuahua mix who is scared of everyone and pretends to be a pit Bull. By the end of the second 30 minute visit they were on the same side of the doggy gate spending time together. She took tons of pictures which made us so happy to look at while we were gone. She even included pictures of the dogs food to show they ate and how much! (Our dogs only eat a little when we are gone, so refreshing to see they felt comfortable enough to eat with her). I recommend her a million percent she was extremely professional, easy to deal with, and again loved our dogs as if they were her own!”


“This was our first time leaving our cats with a sitter, and it was a wonderful experience. From the meet-and-greet, we felt she was a perfect match. She followed our instructions carefully and sent daily updates. We are extremely pleased with her care and will definitely contact her again for any future pet sitting.”

“Always contacted me on the status of my shy pets. Bonnie tried patiently to engage with Ravin and Gracie. She was successful, and shared this with me with messages and pictures. I felt confident leaving my pets with Bonnie via Rover. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”


“Maddy did an outstanding job with my kitties, Samoa is usually very shy until she gets to know you, Samoa even ignored her treats at first and just wanted Maddy's full attention! ;-) Charlie and Samoa were very well taken care of while I was away.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting alone for about 8 years now! Friends, neighbors, and other folks have relied on me to feed and walk their pets as well as house sit. I’ve worked with cats, dogs, almost all domestic farm species, amphibians, reptiles, and fish. I’ve just graduated UVM with an Animal Science degree, where I’ve taken helpful classes such as Intro To Exotic Pet Care class and Canine Behavior where I trained local shelter dogs. Through my studies, I’ve learned about nutrition, anatomy, welfare, husbandry, and diseases/ailments for many species. I’ve worked with a lot of senior animals who have a variety of backgrounds at a farm sanctuary, so I’m comfortable working with pets with special needs. I’ve also been working as an ICH Tech at an equine clinic so I am comfortable with medications such as injections as well. I love talking about my experience and am happy to answer any questions people may have! I love going for walks and hiking! The outdoors are so beautiful and even more lovely when you get to share them with a pet. Early morning walks are my personal favorite. Pet visits also work well in my schedule. I don't mind stopping by to let a pet out, feed, clean, and provide enrichment. I love reading and am happy to hang out with pets outside while I do so. Clear communication and meeting the needs of the client are the most important pieces to pet care to me. I like to take notes about expectations and routines, such as feeding or play time, that way I can provide pets with the most consistency and familiarity I can. I like to update folks about their pets by sending photos and messages. And I keep my phone nearby with notifications on throughout my time so that I am available if folks have any questions, concerns, or are just missing their pet and would like a picture!

Great services. Carissa is really patient and thoughtful taking care of my cats. And she always tries best to do all care stuff and asks me if she has any concerns. She sent me many photos during the drop-in visit and my cats are really comfortable with her, even the timid one. I really appreciate her help while I am out of town. And I will select her service again if I am out of town in the future.

Abigail was amazing! We could not be happier to have found such a wonderful sitter/walker for our girl Molly. With Molly being a rescue and rather new to our family, I was nervous to leave her and afraid she would not do well without us. However, Abigail, gave her so much love and attention.... we came home to a happy and healthy doggie. Thank you so much Abigail! We look forward to having you visit Molly again...
