“Kelsey was on time for every appointment, provided updates for each visit and took great care of my animals. I highly recommend her. She even left a toy with her thank you card!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 17 years and have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets as if they were my own. I’m attentive to routines, leash safety, and each dog’s individual needs — whether that means a long, energetic walk or a slower, more relaxed pace. I’m especially patient with dogs who are nervous, shy, or need a calm presence, and I always prioritize safety, comfort, and positive experiences. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I’ve set aside dedicated time for dog walks! I’m flexible with weekday walks and happy to accommodate regular weekly schedules as well as occasional walks when needed. I focus on being punctual, reliable, and consistent so your dog can count on a familiar routine🐾 Your dog’s safety is always my top priority! I follow leash safety at all times, pay close attention to body language, and tailor each walk to your dog’s comfort and energy level. I’m careful with weather conditions, traffic, and surroundings, and I treat every dog and home with respect. I’ll always follow your instructions and provide thoughtful updates after each walk!
“We absolutely recommend Samantha to anyone looking for help with their pet , she is a wonderful, caring, professional and kind person who adores animals!!! We were so thrilled with her services, and will definitely use her again. She came to our house for several weeks, doing drop-in visits with our dog when I was out of town working remote. I received a over Report Card everytime, detailing all the care and the fun that they had together. She also sent multiple pictures everytime as well. Millie looked forward to Samantha's visits and they became fast best friends. They played fetch, went on walks, had potty breaks and food breaks and lots of cuddling! Thank you Samantha:)”

“Belle was amazing. Went above and beyond to care for our kitties. Sent us detailed notes and many pictures daily. It made being away from our cats a little easier. Everyone was very happy all week. Highly recommend and we will be working with her again for sure!”

About: I have had both cats and dogs since I was a child. I always say hi to the dogs first when visiting family and friends! I work a full time job and am remote (from home) and am very flexible to fitting the needs of the potential furry friends I am given the opportunity to meet! I will follow directions to keep the animals safety and routine within their and their owners boundaries. During walks, I will respect the owner request regarding distance and interaction with other dogs, and people.
“Dana was amazing, going above and beyond to take care of our baby every single day! Marshmallow also loved her and said hello, cuddled, and played with her. Dana has looked after Mallow's health while we're gone and is so knowledgeable and experienced, she was able to give us valuable advice to improve Marshmallow's health - and she takes the cutest photos. I would recommend Dana to anyone in need of an attentive, loving, experienced, kind, and wise pet sitter!”

“Shantel kindly helped me out in an emergency situation on a holiday weekend. She sent photos to put my mind at ease, and was communicative and compassionate with my situation. I’ll gladly rebook Shantel anytime for caring for my fur babies, for the peace of mind and the exceptional care she offers.”


About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, with long-term dog sitting experience on Cape Cod, MA and in Northeast Ohio. I’m also a devoted pug parent myself, so I understand firsthand the importance of routines, comfort, and the little quirks that make each dog unique. My partner and I recently relocated to the Buffalo area for his new job, and I’m excited to establish new client relationships and meet fellow dog lovers in the community. Dog sitting is my second job, and I work full-time—entirely remotely—for an Executive Search firm. This allows me to maintain a very flexible schedule and be home throughout the day. At this time, my preference is for house sitting in your home, where I can help keep your dog’s routine consistent in a familiar environment. Because I work remotely, I’m able to provide all-day, round-the-clock companionship while I work, with plenty of breaks for walks, playtime, feeding, and snuggles (with the occasional quick visit to check on my own puggies, of course!). I treat every dog as if they were my own and prioritize safety, comfort, and attentive care. I look forward to meeting you and your pup soon! I work full-time and entirely remotely for an Executive Search firm, and dog sitting has been my second job for as long as I can remember. I’ve found that remote work and dog sitting complement each other perfectly, allowing me to provide steady, round-the-clock companionship rather than just a few drop-in visits each day. I prefer to house sit and stay in your home, essentially moving in and working remotely while keeping your dog company and maintaining their normal routine. This approach is especially helpful for dogs with separation anxiety or those who need more frequent potty breaks. While I generally keep a typical 9–5 schedule, my workday is flexible, and I can take breaks as needed. I do have occasional meetings during the day and, depending on proximity, may step out briefly to check on my own dogs—but your pet’s care, comfort, and safety are always my top priority. I believe the best care comes from keeping your dog’s routine as close to yours as possible, all in the comfort of their own home. I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet before a sit so I can get to know you and your dog, learn their daily routine, and familiarize myself with the home and surrounding area. I always recommend sharing a simple “guide” or list of your dog’s schedule—feeding, potty breaks, medication, walks, playtime, and any special preferences. I’ve cared for dogs with all types of personalities, and understanding their quirks and behavioral patterns helps ensure a smooth, stress-free experience. For example, I like to know how they do on walks, whether they’re an escape artist or more of a Velcro pup, and how they react around other dogs. When it comes to walks, I’m comfortable walking two small dogs at the same time, and since it’s just me, I prefer one larger dog at a time. In addition to pet care, I’m also happy to help with light house-sitting tasks while you’re away, such as watering plants, bringing in mail and packages, and keeping an eye on the home. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible, knowing both your dog and your home are being well cared for.
About: I have loved dogs my whole life. Unfortunately (with the exception of when I was very little and one year as a teenager living with my mother) I grew up without dogs living with my father in an apartment. Getting married changed that as my wife at the time of dating had one dog and we now have 3 wonderful dogs, all rescues. We have also fostered in the past. I am passionate about rescuing dogs and dogs (and all animals) rights to a loving home free of abuse. I receive so much joy from being with dogs and have formed a strong bond with all 3 of our kids. My wife and I have no human children so the dogs are pretty much our life. As of now I am in between jobs so I have a lot of availability. I am looking for late mornings through the evening. I unfortunately cannot do overnights or earl mornings. I don't think I could do it at my house as out dogs do not always get along with others especially on their territory. I would be available to work I your home or I can provide dog walking services.
“Colleen was a real blessing, took on my 4 animals in one days notice for 4 days. I had a sitter booked and she was a nightmare night one and Collen just picked up where she left off not knowing me or my pets and I was already away in another state. She was so compassionate and loving toward them and me, lots of great pictures throughout, brought in my mail and garbage can. Sweet as can be!! Thank you Colleen for being there for us!!”

“Rachel was very kind and attentive to my dog & I felt very comfortable having her check-in on him from the first day they met. She was always been very prompt and reliable.”

About: Growing up I was in charge of walking, feeding and bathing my Grandmas two dogs since she was no longer able to due to old age. I only work 9-5 most weekends, weekdays I’m typically off and have a very free schedule! I graduated May 2026 with a Masters in Social Work and plan to build a career in social work! I love to play fetch or any games your animal maylike. I can give baths and/or clean up the yard. I can spend quality time with your animals, cuddle with them or turn on their favorite song or show.
About: Hi. I’m Sabrina. I have experience with dogs and cats since I was a child. The love I have for animals is something everyone around me recognizes quickly! Animals make life enjoyable and so much better, and they only deserve the best and happiest of times! I have my own dog and two cats yet, always enjoy helping friends or family out with watching their pets, stopping by to check on them, giving the cats some love down to walking the dogs. My life revolves around caring for animals. When im spending time with my animals, they go everywhere with me and really enjoy car rides with the windows down, water/ice cups from Tim Hortons, pup cups from Starbucks, running in the parks, or just simply playing fetch in the yard. Animals truly bring so much happiness in my life! I have open availability to care for animals. Available unless I’m watching a client already. I do not watch more than one client at a time . Instructions will be given to me from client of feeding, exercise schedule. Animals will be safe under my care and won’t be exposed to dangerous environments
“Megan did a excellent job watching our little man Guido. He can be very picky on who he gives his attention to. In every picture she sent he was snuggled up on her. Which means he is very happy and comfortable. So glad we found Megan as a sitter. We will definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and sometimes cats for 3 years at a few daycares and boarding facilities. I love animals and would love to provide care for them! I’m currently recovering from a leg injury, so for now I’m focusing on caring for small dogs and cats! I love giving them attention, walks, and cuddles. I’ll be ready to work with bigger dogs again very soon once my leg fully heals! I will provide care for pets at clients home by making sure they are fed, medicated if needed and safely crated after I leave. Also, keep the pets safe from anything dangerous.

Melissa was a great pet sitter for us! She was very prompt & accommodating to our schedule for drop in visits. Our pets really took to her, as I can tell from the daily pictures that she sent. Our pets were very well taken care of. I would highly recommend Melissa, and plan to book with her in the future. Communication was great, and I felt 100% comfortable with my pets in her care!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lockport stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
