“Jamie was so good working with our anxious dog why we were away for a week. She sent lots of pictures and provided updates after each time she visited our dog”
“Margaret was very kind and attuned with my 2 corgis. They absolutely loved her and would cry around the time she’d arrive because they were so excited to go on a walk with her. Will definitely be using Margaret’s services again!!”
“Adriana—Thank you for being flexible with the scheduling when I had to cancel one of the days due to illness. You’re always so helpful and make pet care less stressful.”
“Alison and Robert were amazing! They did everything we asked in terms of taking care of our kitty and more. We loved the daily updates with pictures, which were great, and looked forward to them every day during our trip. Would definitely have them back again. We can tell William already misses their visits!”
“As usual, Cori was amazing. Previously, our cats would have been freaked out by the time we returned from a trip. Whenever Cori takes care of Bob and Alice, when we return they kind of look at us with a look that says, "why did you come back? We were perfectly happy playing toys with Corey." While we're really jealous of her relationship with B and A, we're always comfortable with the care they get when we leave them in Cori's capable and caring hands. And the photo updates are always a welcome treat. Thanks Cori!”
“Quinn is great with my older cat, Suzy! She was very patient and kind regarding the unique needs for my pet and she always spent a little more time than what was required to make sure everything was taken care of and to play with Suzy as well. Will definitely try to book with her whenever I can in the future!”
“Amanda was awesome & took good care of my bunny Scottie! She was very thoughtful in updating me and I could tell my Scottie had come to trust her over the week of her drop in visits.”
About: My journey in animal care began in 2017 as a kennel technician, and over the past 8 years, I’ve grown into a skilled veterinary assistant with extensive experience caring for dogs, cats and exotic pets of all breeds and temperaments. When I go home, I hug my 2 cats and 2 dogs after a long days work. I also have owned a hedgehog who is now in heaven, and I had the pleasure of growing with and caring for my childhood dog who is also in heaven with my hedgie. From daily walks and enrichment to assisting in exams and treatments, I’ve had the privilege of supporting our furry friends through every stage of life. I’m trained in administering medications—whether it’s a pill, injection, or special diet—and I always prioritize comfort, safety, and trust. Whether your fur baby is playful, shy, or needs a little extra TLC, I bring patience, experience, and a whole lot of love to every visit. I work weekdays 7a-3p, so I am available M-F after 3-3:30p. Saturdays and Sundays I am usually away. I can answer any questions on availability and openings for walks and drop ins! I fully acknowledge that I am entering into your home and that alone is the biggest reason I go above and beyond on building trust with you and fur babies. Safety is my highest priority — I want everyone to feel safe before I ever step foot into your home. I require a meet and greet to start the process; this is to make sure your pet(s) get familiarized with my presence, then I assess compatibility after 1-2 bookings. If I’m concerned about temperament, we will next steps and gauge whether or not we can move forward with future bookings. There are times when pets display signs of stress or protective/territorial behaviors when a stranger enters their home, especially if it’s for the first time. While I’m comfortable caring for an array of temperaments, the last thing I want is your pet to be stressed and unhappy. I am transparent about this process upfront as I prioritize safety for all parties. Upon meeting you and your pet for the first time, I will ask you (many) questions and write all information provided down and go over everything with you before ending the meet and greet session. This will include questions regarding specialized care, diet, temperament, etc. I will also ask for an emergency contact and veterinarian information in the case there is an emergency while you’re not home. For all of my services I make sure to accurately follow all instructions provided with consistent text and picture updates. I NEVER touch anything in your home besides pet-related items disclosed at our meet and greet unless I have permission. After services are completed, I refill all food/water bowls, put back all pet related items such as food and toys where they belong, tidy up if permitted, and give your pets some extra TLC before leaving!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my entire life. I have experience with puppies, energetic dogs, and elderly dogs. I love to spend my free time outside with my own dog, helping him get more exercise! I am eager to expand my dog experience and to bond with more animals. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have open availability to watch your dogs! I am able to be flexible to find times to walk or take your pup for a potty break! If you require a longer stay, I just need to know at least 2 weeks in advance to ensure my schedule will align. I currently have a Catahoula Leopord Dog, he requires a lot of attention and outdoor time. He has a hard time sharing his space, so I would have to board at the clients home. While visiting at the clients home, I will ensure the pup receives plenty of exercise, cuddles, and as many potty breaks it needs! I have my own transportation so it’s not a problem to commute.
About: I’m new to Rover but not to dogs! I have worked in a veterinary kennel, a daycare/boarding center, completed a PennVet summer program, and volunteered at the SPCA for years. Let me walk your doggies! I love them all. I am free daily until late August, barring my 5-8 pm tutoring shifts, a few weekly appointments, and random engagements. I have lots of energy in the morning so I can do early morning walks if needed. I am very respectful and caring towards others’ animals, spaces and belongings, and would love the opportunity to take care of your pet in your home so that both of you have the least anxiety possible.
“Best sitter you could ask for in the area! Responsive and will treat your pets like her own. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will take care of their babies with the most love and attention as possible!”
About: While growing up, there were always 6 dogs in the house ranging from chow chows to a small morkie. With my friends and family, I’m the first one on-call to watch their furry friends. I’ve taken care of a Great Pyrenees puppy all the way to a 15 yr old chihuahua. I’m open to overnight pet sitting or even a simple walk :) I typically work Tuesday through Saturday during the day. So I’d be available for morning walks, morning and afternoon potty breaks, or even overnight stays! Sundays and Mondays I have open availability! Since every dog is different, I try to gauge the typical day based on the information provided. If your pup is very social and loves to explore, I’ll bring them on a scenic walk. If you have couch potato, that’s no problem at all!
About: I volunteered at the animal shelter Wanderes Rest all throughout high school. I have experience with many different kinds of animal behaviors. I work as a vet assistant for my job. Which means I know how to handle and take care of your precious fur babies. I can teach new commands if requested. I have experience with giving oral medication to both cats and dogs. I have experience with taking care of both senior cats and dogs. I will be attentive and detail oriented to their needs and care. I have experience with responding to emergencies in a calm and efficient manner. As well as keeping you updated about your pets wellbeing with LOTS of pictures. I've had stray dogs and cats approach me. Without doing anything to get their attention. Animals seem drawn towards my energy. Which is why I believe I'm the best choice when choosing someone to take care of your fur babies with Love and Attention while you are away 💕 I currently work weekends which means I am available during the week Mon - Fri. To drop by and check in on your precious babies. The only times I'm not available are 1-2:30pm since I walk dogs during those times. I am attentive and detailed oriented. I will follow your instructions word for word. Treating your fur babies like my own fur babies with Love, Attention, and Playful energy.

About: I have helped take care of the pets in my family since I was little! I love the distinct personalities and quirks that different animals have. Spending time with animals is good for the soul and I would love to help take care of them in my free time! I am currently working part time, and need to be in Oswego on Wednesdays and Fridays until 4. I particularly enjoy going for walks on these days to move after a drive. I am free the rest of the week and available on weekends! I follow the directions given to me for petcare, and make sure animals get plenty of attention and play time while their owners are gone while being respectful to their space.

Isabel V.
“Isabel is a wonderful and empathetic person who pays a lot of attention to animals. She helped me with Fred, a chocolate Labrador who lived with me until recently and Wolfe, the German Shepherd in my care now. Both dogs eat a diet of raw meat only, and require at least 2 walks a day. The Fred was very food motivated, and always enjoyed getting treats for doing tricks. One thing that Isabel taught me that I didn't even realize is that he sneezed whenever he was excited, especially when he knew it was 'treat time'. She also took great care of Wolfe, who is a very energetic and playful dog, and played with him even more than I do when she took care of him. She also was eager to help maintain his training when I mentioned some of the tricks he knew, but didn't really ask her to take care of and even expressed interest in teaching him to find treats. She also taught me how to wrap treats In a towel to keep his busy brain active. I've been impressed with her enthusiasm for animal care and her willingness to go above and beyond for the animals to meet their needs. I would highly reccomend her to take care of your animals.”

Outer Comstock pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jennah has cared for our dog, Theo, several times a week since August! She is extremely reliable and great with dogs! She put our mind at ease checking in on him during his neuter and other times that he had an upset stomach. She was always cautious with the weather and would quickly adjust with some active playtime inside if it was too hot or too cold outside. Jennah has cared for Theo since he was a puppy and it will be hard to find someone to replace her!
James was a fantastic cat sitter! He came by ahead of time to meet my cat and make sure they were a good fit, which I really appreciated. Throughout the stay, he sent plenty of pictures every day and kept me updated on food, water, and litter box levels. He was kind, professional, and very communicative. I felt totally at ease knowing my cat was in good hands. Highly recommend!
Julianne was very friendly and SUPER patient with our extremely anxious dog, Charlie. Scheduling went smoothly, Julianne was flexible and worked with us despite our last minute booking! Julianne was very comfortable with Charlie - who can lack manners when first meeting her (a work in progress for us) which can be difficult for many given she is a relatively larger breed. She sent cute pictures and kept us updated on how everything was going. We are grateful!
Savannah was phenomenal looking after and visiting my two dogs. Her communication and follow-through were both superb. They both were clearly well-cared for and it put me at ease knowing that their wellbeing was in Savannah's hands. I absolutely give Savannah the highest of recommendations and accolades.
This was my first time working with Moriah and she did a great job with the cats! She set up a meet and greet beforehand which I prefer, met both cats, and took notes on how to care for them. I enjoyed her updates and she sent some videos along with pictures of how they were doing!
