Pet Sitting in Lima

“Kayla did a great job looking after our 3 cats this weekend—feeding them, cleaning the litter boxes, and even sending us pictures of play time. I’d definitely hire her again!”

“Destiny gave my dogs such a lovely few days. They were much happier having someone spend time with them in the middle of the day while I was gone. Many thanks to Destiny!”

“This was our first time using Rover for our 12 year old German Shepherd and we couldn’t be happier. Kim was very friendly and thorough when she came over to meet us and our senior dog. It was reassuring to get check in’s and pictures while we were away. We would recommend Kim to all of our friends and will rebook with her again when we need someone for our dog.”

About: I've had several dogs in my life, smaller and larger dogs. I had a cocker spaniel mix when I was a kid, a collie when my kids were young, and most recently a German shepherd. Each had their own personality and I have special memories of each one of them. I have taken care of older dogs and younger dogs. I can handle the energy of younger dogs and the needs of older ones. We have always seen our pets as members of the family and I hope you will allow me to see your dog in the same way. I have friends that I have stayed at their house for a couple of weeks to spend time with their dog while they were on vacation. We went for walks twice a day and had a lot of time playing together. I work remotely in my job so I am happy to work from wherever is needed to take care of your pet. My schedule is flexible and I will work hard to accommodate the schedule of you pet. If you just need someone to come to walk your dog or just spend time with your cat, I have the flexibility in my day to do that. My first goal is to make your dog or cat comfortable with my visit. If I'm staying in your home, I will follow the routine you have set to do just that.

“Abigail was outstanding. I highly recommend her.”

“David was excellent with our puppy Nova! He is incredibly attentive and very considerate of Nova's specific needs. Nova always enjoys her time with David and it's a huge help to have him drop in. We always love the pictures and updates David provides about her time during the day.”

“Alana was on time for each check in and gave our German shepherd lots of love! She did great with administering his meds 2x per day and took him on lots of walks! Highly recommend!”

“Ariana took great care of Zeus and I'll definitely book again. I scheduled 8 drop in times and she was on schedule for all of them. This was my 1st experience with Rover.com.and I was skeptical. This experience with Ariana has put me at ease when I need the extra support.”

About: I've taken care of animals since I was 12 years old, as well as having 2 cats and a pitbull/lab mix at home. My friends, family, and neighbors have always entrusted me with the care of their pets, as I've always been told I "have a way" with animals. I have experience training and dog-sitting small puppies as well as many different big and small dog breeds. I have experience with and love working with cats as well! I'm excited to give the best care to your pets 🤍 I'm available 7 days a week so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I have a flexible schedule and can come for check ins and walks on short notice. I have experience with many different sizes and dog breeds and have a flexible schedule so that I can be available for whenever your pups need me!

About: I’ve had many dogs my whole life each dog came with their own needs, some dogs needed oral medications and some needed special food. I’ve taken care of both small and big dogs, I’ve also trained dogs of all sizes. Some dogs are more willing to learn and some aren’t that willing, But no dog is untrainable. Pet care fits into my daily routine because I have dogs and a cat at home, I go to BOCES for Animal Science so I have to care for all different kinds of animals there too. I love caring for all different kinds of animals because it makes my day. I let my dogs outside on a leash. My dogs are also E-collar trained too so if your fluffy friend wants to go out with my dogs to then I can do that too. I crate my one dog when I leave the house, but I also have another crate if your dog needs it to.

“Calli was wonderful with our 70-lb Golden. It's clear that she knows and loves dogs, and Juniper seemed at ease with her right away. She was very in tune with our dog's needs regarding the heat and activity level. Thank you, Calli!”

“Vicki was kind and loving in caring for our kitties. Would highly recommend her services for your pet and will be calling on her again in the future”

“Elizabeth was fantastic with our boys. We (boys included) knew as soon as we met her, she was a perfect fit. This was our first time using Rover but Elizabeth really put our mind at ease. We will definitely be using her again.”

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!

About: I grew up in a family with plenty of dogs, cats, and other critters and spent lots of time in 4-H clubs and at horse stables before I started fostering dogs at 15. Over about 3 years, I was the primary caregiver to 14 foster dogs ranging from 10-pound Chihuahuas to 90-pound American Bulldogs and from puppies to seniors. Having had difficult pasts before making it into a rescue, most of those dogs had some behavioral or medical issues (and often a combination of the two), so I built plenty of patience around training and even more familiarity with medical regimens. After graduating high school, I continued pet-sitting the cats and dogs of friends, neighbors, and family whenever I had a chance. Now that I’ve got a typical full-time job, I love using my weekends and evenings looking after other's pets! I work Mon-Fri 7:00am-3:30pm, so I'm typically only available evenings and nights during the week, but am also willing to make early mornings work under particular circumstances. If you're within the city of Rochester, I may be able to make brief mid-day stops even on days I'm working. Happy to discuss details and find flexible solutions for everyone involved! In a client’s home for housesitting or drop-ins, I like to make sure pets are engaged and having fun so they have a full day even when their people aren’t around. I’m also happy to incorporate any training regimens a client is trying to establish. During over-night stays, I’m used to waking up for frequent potty breaks or for medical needs. I also stay very conscious of what will make the pets most comfortable and establish trust with them – whether that means giving them space or letting them stick with me 24/7 – so missing their family is as minimally stressful as possible. For walking services, I’m happy to adjust our pace and distance to make sure pets have all their excess energy out by the time they get home. I'm a runner so that includes runs for high-energy dogs. If a senior pet just likes to get outside during the day without the focus on exercise, I keep a very close eye on their energy level to make sure we take appropriate breaks or wrap up the walk before they push their limits. At the end of the day/visit, I like to give clients a recap of what their pets were up to, including the big and small things, just to make sure everyone’s in the loop and knows what’s going on in their pet’s life.

“Kaitlyn does a great job every time!”

“I’m glad to report a positive experience having hired Hannah to care for my cat while I visited family for the holidays. It was a relief to know my kitty was safe and sound in her familiar surroundings. Hannah is a lovely young woman who took good care of my kitty. This was my first experience with this type of service, but thankfully not my last. I’m grateful for having met Hannah and for knowing she will be there the next time I go out of town.”

“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: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for friends and family for over 10 years, and I absolutely love giving pets unforgettable experiences while you’re away. I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own, ensuring they feel loved and well cared for. I am very active and love taking walks with all dogs. After losing my own dog years ago, pet sitting has become a meaningful way to fill that void and share the love I have for animals. I’m currently working full-time in a school from 8-3pm. During the week I am available after 3pm for drop in visits and/or walks. On weekends I am available for drop ins and/or walks morning, afternoon and evenings. During the summer I am a nanny, however have a flexible schedule to let pets out throughout the day! I live in a safe apartment complex with a fenced in area for dogs and well as several walking trails to take your pets on long walks.

“Lois was perfect! She came to meet Luna before my requested service dates and asked questions to make sure she understood what Luna needed. She arrived for all scheduled visits on time and sent complete report cards with photos every time as well. I would definitely use Lois again for any pet sitting needs!”
