Michelle was amazing! She was available on short notice to watch my dogs and cats in my house. Her level of care is outstanding. I had no worries while I was gone because she was there to take care of all my fur babies. I would definitely rebook her

Jacque did a fantastic job of house sitting our 2 dogs! They loved having him and we couldn't have been happier with the care and love he gave them while we were out of town. Gave us updates and photos of the doggies. Would highly recommend and use again!

About: I have always been a pet lover, but my soft spot is definitely for dogs! I have experience at dog daycares and boarding facilities and sanctuaries/rescues. I am CPR certified. I have experience and patience with senior dogs, they deserve all the love too! I am currently looking to becoming a full time pet care specialist, I want to build a clientele here and build relationships with new dogs. A few things factor into this. Most importantly for me is knowing and understanding the pets current routine, following all instructions and any precautions-for pets safety and my own, then updating owner about stay/walk/visit.

About: As long as I can remember I’ve taken care of pets of my own and others. From dogs and cats to lizards and birds, I’ve learned a lot from years of animals being by my side. That’s why from dog walks to overnight stays, your pets are in safe, loving hands-24/7, 365 days a year. I have plenty of free time to keep any pets enriched and well cared for when you cannot. Life can be busy but I like to spend time making others happy, especially animals! I live with a large family and with my cat, Coco. I feed her 1/2 a cup of dry food in 3 meals as she is an indoor cat and often she will be given wet food as well. I enjoy keeping my friend as happy and healthy as possible since she’s like my own child.

About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats for years. I've worked with all ages and even some that needed special needs. I've bathed, fed and walked dogs for years. I only work Monday through Thursday from 5am to 4pm and I don't do much else during the weekend or the week giving me lots of time to go on walks. I'm getting a fenced yard for my dog and crate training them. If the owner wants them crated or not it's up to them and I am always flexible.

Our original sitter cancelled on us after we were already on our plane. Rover contacted several sitters on our behalf and Emma responded right away. She was communicative and patient as we tried to figure everything out! She was able to get to our house within a few hours and stay three nights with our dog. He was happy and safe when we got home and we are so grateful that we found her!

About: I've been taking care of and rescuing animals since I was a child with my grandmother. We always had all kinds of lovely creatures running around the house, including a baby raccoon that we rehabilitated and released back into the wild when it was ready to leave the nest! I have experience in caring for pets with special needs and administering meds as needed. I have love and respect for all animals as they are true family members, and I'm looking forward to creating a bond with yours! :) I have a part time job with shorter shifts that range from 3-5 hours a few times per week. Otherwise my schedule is free and I'd love to fill my time with hanging out with your fur or scale babies!! All pets welcome, I have experience with most! :) I have one kitty currently who is always cozy in my bed or eating her fancy food from her bowl that must always be full! Lol! I would love more pets but I cannot due to limited space. This I why I enjoy staying with your pets in the comfort of their own home! I am very patient, affectionate, playful, kind, attentive, and will always be sure your babies receive the attention they need and are well cared for while you're away!

About: I will provide you with updates throughout the process, fostering a genuine connection with the pets, helping them feel comfortable, and ensuring a positive experience for them. Considering my availability as a stay-at-home mother with three school-aged children, I am well-suited to devote my daytime hours to the care of your pets. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs for your fur baby to play with and I can easily crate your dog if needed.

Our dog seemed content when we returned but not overly anxious about us being back. Our dog sitter kept Diesel happy and content while we were gone. House was in good shape. Overall pleased with her assistance. Would recommend her to others.

About: A little bit about me, I am going on to my second year at MCC and after plan on joining the Air Force! I currently have a part time job at a restaurant but have gotten the unfortunate news that they will be shutting down my store so I am looking to have this as a part time job for now then hopefully transition it into a full time job. I have been taking care of animals since my early teenage years starting off with a close family friend and her 2 poodle mix’s. They would be dropped off at my house around 9:00 am and then get pick up at 6:00pm. I have bathed, cleaned, and even trained some dogs (simple commands). In addition, I have also taken care of multiple furry felines and have had many cats of my own so I am also quite familiar with their needs as well. I am wanting to soon be Pet CPR and First Aid Certified. I have always been interested in pet-care I just didn’t know how to go about it until I found out about rover! I will be putting all my focus on pet-care as my full time job. Since I am just starting out I will only have weekday availability 11-9 and will only offer drop in’s and walk services Monday-Friday and house sitting Tuesday-Thursday. I have been around pets for a long time and feel I am able to pick up on signs if anything might be wrong with your furry friend.

About: I am wild about dogs, all breeds. I often think if I could go back, I might have gone to school to be a veterinarian. I grew up with dobermans, cats, riding horses and much more. I have found that most animals love me. I just lost my Golden Retriever, Nalu, after 14 amazing years. Something to be said in that she had more Facebook friends & photos than I do. I just moved down here a year ago from South Glastonbury and most of my new neighbors in Deep River have asked me to watch their animals at one time or another without any sort of solicitation so I believe that is a testament to my character and integrity. Any other questions you might have, I would be happy to answer.

About: Hi there! I’m Gigi, I work from home full-time and only take a few dogs at a time, so every pup gets lots of attention in a comfortable, home environment🤍 We carry our own private pet care insurance (not just Rover’s standard protection). We also keep a consistent routine so everything feels easy for the dogs. I help dogs get comfortable using our dog door so they can go in and out freely and keep their usual routine. I’ve worked with puppies as well and can help reinforce things like potty training, crate time, and settling into a new environment. We keep things relaxed and typically have up to 3 dogs at a time, so every dog has space to feel comfortable. We do a quick meet & greet beforehand to make sure it’s a good fit for everyone. Our setup works best for small to medium dogs. We have a fully fenced yard with a custom-built dog door, plus added safety features like anti-dig guards and front porch fencing for extra peace of mind. We also have cameras covering the backyard and main dog areas so we can keep a close eye on everyone. Inside, things are clean, cozy, and dog-safe, with floors and common areas kept clear so dogs don’t get into anything they shouldn’t. There’s also a fully enclosed indoor play area if separation is ever needed. My husband Nate and I care for the dogs together, and our two friendly pups help new dogs feel at home quickly :) ⸻ 🐾 Your pup will enjoy: – Small group – 24/7 dog door access to fenced backyard (fresh water always available) – Clean, dog-safe spaces (no kitchen access) – Separated during feeding to avoid conflicts – Daily walks or runs in a quiet neighborhood – Photo/video updates – Plenty of playtime and supervision (Healthy snacks like yogurt, berries, or pumpkin if you’re okay with it 😊) ⸻ We’re located right off the highway—Rochester’s last exit before Buffalo/Canada, only about 10 minutes from ROC Airport. I’m always quick to respond, and can be flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. We do ask for booking at least a week in advance so we can schedule a quick meet & greet 🤍 I work from home full-time, so I’m around throughout the day for walks, playtime, and regular check-ins, and can let dogs out frequently as needed while keeping a consistent routine. We have a fully fenced yard with a dog door, so pups can go in and out easily. Inside is clean, dog-safe, and set up for a calm, well-managed environment.

About: Hi I have plenty of personal experience from owning my own dogs and cats since I was 5 . I’v Also had experience from family members and friends relying on me to watch , feed and stop in occasionally to check in on there pets while out of town or at work . I have owned a couple puppies so I can help maintain your potty training schedule , and or any schedule your dog or cat might need and or be accustomed to. My entire schedule currently revolves around taking care of and watching pets . For work and in my free time . If I’m not taking care of mg own pets I’m taking care of somebody else . I work with animals during the week and on the weekends I am available for pet sitting and some occasional week afternoons and week nights I am available I have a fully fenced in back yard for your fur babies to run around in and have fun . depending on the weather I have water toys and pools for pups to play in . I keep an extra dog cage for anyone who crate trains there dog and or prefers them to be locked away at night for safety purposes. There is a park located at the end of my street we can go for walks or local trails if pre approved by parents/owners . i often watch my sister puppy who loves to play with other dogs so if your pup needs a friend he can stop over for play date’s. If pre approved by me and owner. please keep in mind he can be very hyper because he is still young so it would be recommended that they meet first to make sure their energy levels match, but he also is not fixed so any unfixed females or males will not be allowed to have a play date unfortunately so there is no chance for accidents. For any cats I have cat trees for they to sit and lay on for bird or squirrel watching if that’s what they prefer I also have some crazy kittens currently running around at the moment who love to play and can help keep your cat comfortable and happy while being here on for there stay . If your cat prefers there independence I have plenty of space to keep them separated from any dogs or other cats in the house. I do know some animals first aid for minor issues / injuries I will be stocking up on more medical supplies incase a small issues ever occurs .

About: I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I have experience providing care for older dogs with specific medical needs, and experience training puppies. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend undivided quality time with your pets. I have found this helps to reduce the separation anxiety that exists when an owner is absent. It’s important that your pet(s) feel as comfortable as possible in your absence. To me, getting to know your pet’s schedule, habits, favorite and least favorite things, allergies or medical conditions, mannerisms, reactivities, etc. can help them feel cared for while you’re away.
