“This was our first time using Rover.com and we were skeptical however Kayligh was amazing. Our dog and cat loved her and when we got back we couldn’t even tell she had been there. The house was how we left it. We will definitely be booking again. She also stayed an extra hour which was really nice, walked the dog, cuddled and played with our dog and sent us pictures. She also got back to us really quickly when we had questions which made us feel like she cared.”

Vicki is great with open communication and provides regular updates, including photos. She is also very flexible with her schedule and answers reservation requests within 24 hours. I would highly recommend this pet sitter! A+++”
“Katie is the best. Our dogs absolutely love her and i never have to worry about anything when she is with them.”
About: I have a special needs pup, so am good at giving medication and doing physical therapy exercises. I am also an outdoor enthusiast who is extremely patient, so I will take your dog out on the trail (if ok) and let them smell things as long as they want and provided it is safe to sniff! I do work a full time job, but remotely. I prefer morning, evenings, or weekends. And if I'm pet sitting, I will make sure to stick around and give your pet some attention- even during work days as I can work remotely! I follow medications and schedules. I will walk dogs I'm pet sitting a minimum of twice a day with let out in the middle of the day. I also believe attention, if the animal wants it, is important!
“Very reliable, friendly and communicative. Took the time to get to know our pets and helped us out when we greatly needed it. Will use again and highly recommend”
About: When I was in middle school, my science teacher went to the Philippines for the whole summer. I took care of her mices, dogs, guinea pigs and more. Growing up in Iowa, I have been around many animals including dogs. Also I have had friends who traveled to Europe and they had to leave their poodles, black labs and many more and trusted their dogs in my care at their home for a month or two weeks if needed when I lived in Washington state before moving to Honeoye Falls. When I dog sat, I made sure I gave medicine as instructed to the dogs as needed. I played with them, took them hiking, the beach, cuddled on the couch and learned about what they liked and don’t like and what makes them happy. I made sure that their owners were happy as well. When I was asked to come and dog sit again, the dogs would be waiting at the window waiting for my arrival. These dogs were sure happy to see me when I came back to dog sit them! I have plenty of time to play with your pups 🐶I would be available for boarding on the weekends and week days after 4pm. I would be happy to give lots of love and attention/play to your fur babies! I have a fenced yard and have two fur babies who love to socialize. I also love to spoil your dogs too! I work from home twice a week and can pet sit on the weekends as well! As for dog sitting in the client’s home I would treat your place with respect, love and care. Anything you need I will make sure that your pets receive it. I will also communicate and send pictures!
“Sierra was awesome with our dog! She communicated frequently with us and sent pictures often! We will definitely have her back in the future!!”
“It means so much to me to be able to entrust the care of my four pets to someone so we can go away with no worries from time to time. Am so happy to have found Elizabeth! She did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs, two cats and watching our home for us. Will use her again, no doubt!”
“She does a great job and our dogs love her! Would absolutely recommend!”
“Rich was really flexible and nice enough to stay with our dogs for a full day. Haylee our German Shepherd and Aussie mix really like Rich. We will definitely use him again. He showed a lot of caring due to asking things. He was also willing to watch Sparky too (may have been new to disc problems) and handled it well. We will definitely request Rich again!”
“This was Destiny's first time with our spoiled Shih-Tzu. She left me updates all day long, sent pics, was very honest about Bella's behavior, walks, etc. Will definitely keep using her. She is very responsive and knowledgeable.”
“Amena did a great job watching my big dog Petey on short notice! She sent me lots of updates and photos, and left the apartment very neat and tidy. I can tell she really loves animals and wouldn't hesitate to ask her to pet-sit for us again.”
“Calli did great with my dogs. One is a very recent rescue and we aren't sure of his background. He's quite apprehensive and has been a little nippy. She was super communicative prior to, during and after she watched our dogs. She also came twice to assure fit prior to us leaving since our rescue was not super receptive to meeting someone new. I definitely recommend Calli.”

13. Maribeth D.
“Maribeth is such a compassionate two-legged person who adores any four-legged dogs, especially my Schnoodle dog, Snickerdoodle (aka Snickers). She gave a lot of attention to her by taking her out for a walk during breaks from work, bringing her to different dog parks, and giving her countless cuddles. While my family and I were away on vacations, she kept us updated on Snickers with photos. We were elated knowing that our dog who had separation anxiety was in good hands. My family and I couldn't ask for any better pet caregiver than Maribeth. We were blessed to have her in our lives, and we still wish she lives closer to us.”
