House Sitting in Penfield

“Rico is amazing. I’ve used him for a couple sittings and he was punctual, great communicator, very attentive to my pups, sent updates, reached out if something needed attention, accommodated requests and changes and put my pups well being first (esp when one got sick while I was away, Rico called the vet and picked up medication that same day). I can tell he is doing a great job when I see just how much my pups smother him when he comes by - a true sign that he loves them and they can feel it. I’m so happy to have met Rico and look forward to future sittings with Jozi and Milo. Highly recommend Rico.”

“Ona is wonderful. We were gone for about 2 weeks and she was wonderful for all our critters including (one large dog with some separation anxiety, one large dog who can be bit of a handful on walks). She communicated with me daily. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our home and beloved pets were in such good hands.”

Cornelia K.

“Communicative, friendly, and sent great pictures throughout the stay. House was clean and my pup was happy and calm when I returned - which is a great sign that she enjoyed her week with Eric!”

Kiana M.

“Natalie was great with our dogs while we were out of town. She even came back in the late evening to let them out one more time before we got home since she knew we’d be late. We would definitely have her back anytime. Thank you so much Natalie!”

Laura M.

“Lauren is amazing. My dog isn’t always the easiest but she made being away from lady so much easier than it ever has been. She is kind and attentive and can’t rate her highly enough! The best dog sitters and very considerate of the appt too!”

Amanda H.

“Madeline was so great with my two doggies. My chocolate lab and English cream golden retriever. Would definitely recommend her for other stays!”

Kerrie B.

“I have used Emily several times now to sit my precious Piper. Each time, she has exceeded expectations! She is always prompt and keeps in touch with me via reports and pictures, which eases my mind that she is being well cared for. This time, she sent a “twins” photo of her with Piper, both with their tongues out. So cute!! I couldn’t recommend Emily more highly.”

Susan C.

“As always, Hannah took wonderful care of our dog and house while we were away. It was particularly cold and there were some issues that she made us aware of and helped with, which we appreciated very much! We came back to a happy dog and house, thank you Hannah!”

Chris D.

“Katherine was excellent, truly. It was my dog's first time with a sitter and Katherine was incredibly patient and kind. As hard as it was for me to be away for the first time, I felt safe and secure knowing that my baby was with Katherine. The house was cleaner than I left it, and I cannot recommend Katherine strongly enough! As a housesitter, animal watcher (1 puppy and 3 cats) and all around human being you can't go wrong booking with her.”

Susan S.

“I can’t say enough great things about Camille! From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She gave lots of love, attention, and playtime—and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Camille is reliable, kind, and professional—we will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch care. ★★★★★”

Tracy S.

“We absolutely loved having Rachel watch our dogs! She was patient, attentive, and sent great updates and photos every day. Our dogs were clearly well cared for, and our house was spotless when we got home. We’ll definitely book her again!”

About: I have been breeding dogs since 2019 and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of various sizes, temperaments, and needs. Through breeding, grooming, and working closely with professional trainers and groomers in my network, I’ve developed a strong understanding of dog behavior, coat care, and handling techniques. I have groomed dogs through referrals and word of mouth and am very familiar with proper care, structure, and maintaining a calm environment. My background in the fire service has strengthened my reliability, attention to detail, and commitment to community trust. I take dog welfare seriously and treat every dog as if they were my own. I provide a safe, calm, and structured environment in my home with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. Dogs are always monitored, never left unattended outside, and introductions are done slowly and safely. I’m experienced with crate training and can crate dogs if needed or requested. Cleanliness, routine, and each pet’s individual comfort and safety are always my top priorities.

About: I worked for a veterinarian throughout high school, undergrad and grad school. Had cats of my own (not currently). Have watched friends dogs over the years. I'm a hiker, so I walk often. I have the summers off. Able to watch/walk/visit your pets most weekends throughout the year. I can walk/play with your dog as early as 4 pm during the week I have a 20 x 20 fenced in patio with pea gravel and acres of green space in my development. There is a high school across the street and I often hike in Webster parks.

About: Dog sitting was my first job as a teenager. My mom actually gave me the idea to start because she never wanted to have a pet, so this was such a fun compromise! Since then I’ve dog sat for small, medium and large dogs! I myself am an active person and love to be active with a furry friend! It’s nice to have company on a walk run or even someone to explore new parks with! I work full time but my schedule is fairly flexible! I am a therapist and have ability to work from home at times as long as I am not in a session or scheduled to run group therapy! I am happy to stay at your home and care for your pet with the instructions you give! I am happy to walk, play, pet, feed and clean up after your dog.

“Super detailed in their questions! You can tell they want to do a great job taking care of your babies! Very pleasant and very easy to work with! Definitely will request again!”

“Ricky did amazing! I have two dogs we rescued, little dachshunds. One of the boys we have can be loud, and aggressive. My partner and I were very anxious going into this fearful of any lash outs or boy could have. Ricky handled the my boys with tenderness and loving care. By the last day I was told my naughty boy was excited to see him come through the door for their daily walks. You’re amazing Ricky!”

James M.

“Bethany was fantastic. She stayed in great communication for the duration of our trip and sent us plenty of photos of our dogs. Our babies were well taken care of and we couldn’t be more grateful. Plus our house was left in tip top shape!”

Rachel G.

“Emily went above and beyond in caring for our pets! She frequently communicated and sent pics. The animals looked well loved and happy giving us peace of mind. She also took care of unexpected problems with our pool and home without worrying us about it until she had found solutions to keep our stress low. She is the best!”

Caroline W.

“Luis took great care of my dogs. Kodak is on a strict crate rest and meds. Luis was able to administer his meds and ensure he was ok. Jacky is my hype dog and he loved Luis. He sent pictures and updates through the stay. I had no worries:). If you’re looking for a sitter, Luis is your guy! I will definitely booked him for future needs.”

About: I love my dogs and I would like to pamper yours in the comfort of their own home during a drop in visit or a four hour day visit. I have 27 years of experience with canines and raised my pup into the dog as seen in the black and white photo. I had a senior dog of his breed years ago. I can do basic training, if you wish, with positive methods: sit, drop, shake, down, stay, etc. I will feed your dog or puppy as per your instructions. Playtime is always a good time when I am around! We have our doggy spa days every 5 weeks: nails, a bath, & a cookie or two. Nap time is at 3PM at home. Cookies/treats are given for training and are a positive reinforcement method. Within the past year, I crate trained my older dog, so that she would go potty outside. She started to forget what to do. I have a fence at my home. My dogs love the fresh air and to chase after the occasional ball. My Polish Hound uses a probiotic in his food for his sensitive stomach. My older Staffie occasionally likes her "special" food. So, I sometimes add a Milo's meatball to her food. Simparica Trio keeps them healthy and happy.
