About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young, and have my own cat now! I am able to care for pets of all ages, and can administer medication when needed. I’m currently a teacher on summer break, so my schedule is quite flexible. I am able to do drop-ins or extended time during your busy summer months! I will visit your pet in their own safe space and ensure they receive the very best care in their home environment. I can walk your dog in your neighborhood or take them to their favorite park.
“Amanda went above and beyond to make sure my my little furballs were not only well taken care of, but that I had peace of mind while I was away. She goes above and beyond and I highly recommend her and her services ?”
“I can’t say enough good things about Steph. She does a midday check-in for our 1 yo Australian shepherd a few days a week and he absolutely loves her. He can be a little particular about who he decides is part of the pack and Steph was able to warm him up very quickly, no doubt due to her extensive experience with animals. Steph’s communication is excellent, she’s willing to tailor her service to our dog’s needs and I have total peace of mind leaving our fur baby in her hands because she’s proven to be capable and dependable. She’s even brought one of her dogs and/or kids along sometimes to help us socialize him because I mentioned he struggled with those things. 10/10 would recommend booking Steph.”
“Aracely is doing a great job with our Goldendoodle, Luna! She’s on time, always walks her and refreshes her water among many other things. We appreciate her hard work and dedication!”
About: I have had a beautiful, high maintenance cat for many years, who has needed a variety of medications and accommodations since I have had him. So I have done research and practice in how to best take care of older cats that need extra care. I have done ear drops, eye drops, pills, oral syringes, and diabetes syringes. I have also been pet sitting for several years for a wide variety of animals, including a range of dogs, rabbits, turtles, and lizards. I take instructions very seriously, and I love to send photos of pets to their owners while I am with their pets. I prefer the opportunity to meet the pets and owners before pet-sitting, to make sure I am clear on expectations and instructions. I work Monday-Friday, 8-5 most weeks, with some flexibility. I have my own car so I am able to go anywhere in a pretty timely manner. I prefer to meet the pets and owners before I do any pet sitting, to make sure I am clear on all instructions and I know what to watch out for. I always check doors carefully to prevent pets from going where they shouldn't, and I don't trust any gaps in fences or doorways because these little guys can wiggle through small spaces.
“Sophie was very reaponsive (needed a last minute booking) and very easy to coordinate! She was very attentive with our puppo, sent photos and even spent some extra time with him (he doesnt make it easy to leave). Cant recommend Sophie enough!”
About: I have taken care of various dog breeds throughout my life. I have experience taking care of 6-8 puppies at the same time; walking dogs as small as Pomeranians and as big as huskies and golden retrievers I currently work remotely and my schedule is flexible. i have plenty of time to schedule pet sitting, pet walking and more. I’m available for same day calls I am flexible and can adapt to any type of pet care is necessary. All depends on the requirements that the client asks and I will respect them and execute safely and responsibly for the dog.
“Riley puts me at ease when I have to leave Spade (my 14 yr old Bombay male cat). She keeps me updated with photos and a narrative of what took place. She goes beyond and even cleans any mess he’s created. She is always punctual and attentive to his needs. I will recommend her with a glowing review and hope to book her on my next trip out of town. The best!”
“Skylar lets my dog out at lunchtime 3 days a week and he enjoys her visits. She was helpful when a bandage came off a minor injury that my dog had. Overall she has been reliable and responsive.”
About: I genuinely love spending time with animals and taking care of them. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from shy cats to playful puppies. Very reliable, I also enjoy capturing fun moments and sharing photos with theirs owners. I currently work full time, but I am available in the morning and evening as well as the weekend. Especially on the weekends I am very flexible to spend time with your furry friend. I have two kittens at home, they are either flying off the walls or napping right next to me. Taking care for your pet, I am very detailed with instructions and ensure everything requested is completed.
“HUGE thank you to MacKenzie for doing this one-off semi last-minute visit with my pups and her continued patience with my one dog who is a little more nervous and difficult. She is a blessing and I will always be grateful for her love and care she gives my pups while I am away.”
“Once again, Cody took exceptional care of our cat while we were away. Sending many pictures daily and making sure he had lots of play time and treats!! We’re so thankful we have Cody to look after our pets!”
“On pretty short notice Sarah was able to come by for a meet and greet and then take care of our cats for a couple of days. Our cats are usually quite shy and don't like strangers but they took to her quickly! Sarah sent pictures whenever she visited and our cats were very happy and relaxed when we got back home.”
About: I have had 2 dogs since I was 8 years old. I've learned to feed them, clean them, and play with them. I love playing and cuddling with my dogs. I have filled in for my older sister who also dog sits. My family has taken care of multiple dogs at our home over the years. I am comfortable with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I look forward to spending time with your pups! I work full time (9:00 to 4:00) but if your dog needs to be let out during the day, I will find a way to check on them. Either taking a longer lunch or asking my retired mom to check in. I respond quickly to pet sitting requests. Whether your dog is energetic or chill, I love playing and cuddling with new furry friends. We will explore the neighborhood on a walk and then crash on the couch.
“Carolyn was fantastic! She was able to help me out on short notice and followed all the guidelines I left. This was the first time I have left Ozzy with someone so I was nervous but when I got home it was evident he had had a great time! I will definitely be contacting her again!”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Pittsford 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Pittsford choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Pittsford with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
