1. Kim S.

“I have a pair of very difficult dogs. Both are extremely nervous creatures - one is afraid of strangers and the other is afraid of just about everything else. I worry so much about other people looking after them but Kim has been wonderful! She's very patient with them and knows when they need some affection and when she has to give them their space. She also always leaves me very detailed reports of everything that happened during her visits so that I don't have to worry while I'm out (which is very appreciated because I DEFINITELY worry!!!) I really, really appreciate what good care she takes of my boys when I'm gone 😊”


2. Catie C.

“Catie made herself available for last minute drop in which we really appreciate. Our fourth booking with her for our dog who seems very excited about Catie visits!”




3. Jessica O.


“Jessica is fantastic she came for a previsit and met our pup who immediately took a liking to her. The day of her first scheduled visits she allowed our dog to warm up to her at his own pace and was patient and kept me informed. We will be welcoming her back real soon. I highly recommend Jessica.”


4. Alana H.

“Alana did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats while we were away for a week. Knowing they were in such good hands and getting daily updates made being away from them much easier. We plan to use Alana for all of our future trips!”


5. Kayligh W.

“Wonderful! Kayligh was friendly and professional. We booked her for 2x/day drop ins, for feeding and insulin for my 14 year old cat. He’s very personable and after losing his companion cat last year seems to be lonely when we left. My last sitter would medicate and leave, but Kayligh stayed and played and visited with him. She was perfectly on time and very friendly with us and him. Would book again, and I definitely recommend her.”


6. 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.”


7. Vicki B.

“Vicki was great with my two dogs! Communication was continuous, which allowed me to have peace of mind, while I was away. I will definitely be utilizing Vicki’s services in the future and I would highly recommend this sitter.”


8. Joey S.

“Joey was awesome”


9. Kayla C.

“Kayla has been taking care of our animals for more than 3 years now and we have had nothing but great experiences with her. We are grateful for all the great care and the attention to our home! She's the best!”




10. Linda V.
“Linda has walked my special dog for a while now. She is always on schedule, knows a lot about the breed of dog she is caring for so she adapts her way that goes with the dogs inate traits and personality. She keeps the owner aware of any unusual signs which might indicate the little one is not feeling well,ect. She also takes a picture while walking if going something cute and e-mails it to you so you can feel contacted while you are away. honest, great lady”


11. Rich M.
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.


12. Melissa K.
“My family has used Melissa to watch our dogs several times. She has always gone above and beyond in keeping us informed of how our fur babies are doing each day. Melissa is also knowledgeable in animal medical care. That was a huge plus for us when we needed someone to care for our senior girl with a lot of special needs. Melissa is a definite animal lover and she will always give your pup the best staycation when you are away. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


13. Ariana R.


“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.”




14. Kathryn F.
“Kathryn has always had a menagerie of animals, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, fish, and turtles. She will treat your dog like another child in her family. Her own dog is very sweet, playful, and gets along well with other animals. My husband and I have been with Rover for several years as sitters and dog owners. We highly recommend Kathryn to care for your fur baby!”




15. Melissa O.
“Melissa has been amazing with animals since she was a young girl. Many times while in vacation I felt fortunate to have her as a neighbor to keep track of our beloved pets. From my daughter’s little critters like hamsters and even rats to our Family Great Danes she has always just taken such good care of them while we are away. She even took a friends Quaker parrot for a week while she went on vacation and did a great job with him. I highly recommend Melissa , and know she can handle the care of most any pet.”


16. Calli O.

“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!”


17. Emma R.
About: Ive taken care of and watched animals for the last 10 years, wide range of experience working with pocket pets, small animals, and large animals . I am currently available anytime any-day of the week. Looking into getting a part time job as well if i cant watch animals full time. I enjoy continuing the pets normal schedule as much as possible, I will stick to usual feeding times/potty breaks/walks as the owner describes, I never want to cause extra stress to any animal when they’re loved ones are already not there.


18. Rigby W.
“Libby loves all animals. She has helped me countless times with my 2 dogs and loves them as if they were hers. Any animal Libby takes care of, is lucky.”


19. Megan & Bryanna S.
About: Megan- lover of all things with a beating heart; avid nature enthusiast. Have cared for pets personally and privately since I was 10. Clients relied on me for potty breaks and basic daily care. I have cat-sit as well as horse-sit. Making sure the pets are happy at all times and being engaged in their surroundings is a goal for me. Have trained several of my own dogs - I have 3 - and several dogs in the family & friends. I understand levels of obedience and train ability differ from animal to animal and have the patience to work among your animals needs. Have worked at doggie daycare and a dog kennel extensively in my career. Have administered plenty of dog medications. Bryanna - kind hearted, nurturing individual. Have been enjoying the company of my dogs and others’ pets since about 2010. Have dog-sat & cared for some wild pets, even chickens and snakes! Brought a tiny blind kitten back to life. Had roughly 2 years of basic grooming experience. Nail trimming/dremel, ear cleaning, brushing, bathing. Went on to work at a dog kennel, relocated to Buffalo, and worked at another dog kennel (the same one as Megan!) and learned even more about body language and behavior. Looking forward to meeting the sweet pets! We usually take our 3 dogs out for socialization purposes at least twice a day including walking, playing, training, public stimulation. We have a very open schedule and can almost always assist whenever a client needs. We live closely to multiple public parks, Lake Ontario, Canalside, etc. Our 3 dogs enjoy everywhere we have taken them and we hope that your pets will enjoy these places too. We do offer pet sitting at your home, we would request that we have a way to enter the home and if any products are specific to YOUR PET that they are provided for our use. (Example prescription food, medications, enrichment toys) The house sitting details will be thoroughly worked through with the homeowner beforehand.


20. Stephen K.
“Steve is kind and patient. He likes to have the dogs warm up to him and is very considerate of each dogs comfort level. He understands that it might take some dogs a little more time to get to know him compared to others. He never rushes them and moves at their pace. Steve is passionate about his owns dogs heath to the point that he makes his own dogs food. He took it upon himself to learn about what dogs need in the diet and has worked to make his own recipes for one of his dogs with sever allergies. Steve is honest, dependable, and a do the right things person!”
