House Sitting in Rochester

“Kate was amazing with my two needy fur babies. She was kind and attentive to both of them. We will definitely be asking for her care again in the near future”

Candi T.

“Caitlin was great. She kept me up to date with Moxie and leaves the house in great condition, even washing the sheets. I would highly recommend her. I am already booking her for another visit.”

Jodi C.

“Shauni was terrific! She took great care of our girls.”

Leslie L.

“Anna was great with my dogs yet again. My shepherd can be high maintenance but Anna put in a lot of effort to bring the dogs to sniffspots to give them safe places to play after she got back from work and was patient with her demands for an early bedtime and early am breakfast and potty time. We will definitely book with Anna again!”

Karen C.

“I enjoyed my trip so much more because I knew Melissa was taking excellent care of my kitties. She sent me lots of pictures and updates to reassure me. She did everything I asked of her and more. I will definitely be booking her again!”

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and a bunch of other animals, and I have always loved taking care of them. My family, neighbors, and friends have all relied on me to take care of their pets over the years, whether it's for walks, check-ins, or overnights, and I would love to do the same for your pet. I'm a college student living back at home for the summer and have plenty of time during the week for quick check-ins and walks, and I will be able to stay overnight most weekdays and over the weekends. I am very comfortable around dogs and would have no problem going on walks, crating your dog, administering most medicine, or doing any other tasks that may be required.

“Thank you Chandler! So glad I found Chandler on Rover.com. My dogs were happy and very content when I arrived home. He was great about sending dog pictures and letting me know how they were doing. On a side note our house looked perfect as well. He is one very neat and clean sitter!! I will be calling Chandler again!! An thank you for the very fair rate for more than one dog! Thank you again from Messi & Chloe!!?”

“My dogs love Haley! I have one easy angel pup and another not so easy grumpy pup, and Haley quickly won them both over. She has a great presence that commands respect which is important for our pup who needs boundaries during introductions. She provided us with updates and photos while we were gone and we will absolutely have her help us again!!”

Randalyn M.

“Amanda was wonderful for my fur children while away. She was responsible and timely, and shared pictures throughout her stay with them so that our minds were at ease and we could relax. Our Aussie/Border Collie has extreme anxiety and attachment issues, but I could tell he immediately relaxed around her! We are so thankful to have found her!!!”

Nicole M.

“Alex did a fantastic job taking care of our dogs! They were happy, relaxed, and clearly comfortable in her care. She provided regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. On top of that, the house was spotless when we returned, and she even took the time to bring in our mail and packages. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—highly recommended!”

About: I love to make sure your babies are happy, safe and comfortable so that you can enjoy your time away without worry! FaceTime, texts and consistent communication is what makes me your best choice! Former special educator, patience is my virtue! Weekday social worker, so I’m off on weekends routinely, which coincides with families wanting some getaway time. Occasionally available weeknights for walks and drop ins. Weekends are more flexible, and I’m usually available AM/PM or both. Looking to begin boarding in the Fall 2025 Primarily, I can come to your house for care. Occasionally, happily ready to provide care in my home for dogs on weekends. Walking trails and small yard. Other dogs are plentiful here, I will always keep your dog leashed at all times. I’m not against an occasional pup cup trip but have also respected gluten free diets as well.

“Sidney did a wonderful job sitting for us and our 3 small dogs for 4 nights. We hope she is available every time we need a pet sitter. She provided photos every day and there were no issues the entire time. Thanks again Sydney!”

Mark M.

“First time working with Kevin, certainly won't be the last!!! Great communication, my pups loved him and they're walks. Dogs were happy when I came home, the house was left in perfect condition. Thanks Again Kevin!”

Bill P.

“Noreen took such great care of Henry! She was very communicative and kept in touch about how their weekend was going. I appreciated being kept in the loop and seeing photos from their activities!”

Betsy P.

“Claire is the best cat sitter we’ve had. She is attentive and takes great care of both our cat and our house. She is a great communicator. Our cat absolutely loves her. We would recommend Claire to anyone in need of a cat sitter.”

Christine P.

“To leave our 13-year-old dog home for 3 weeks was a huge decision we wrestled with for months. Finding a dog/house sitter on Rover made this daunting prospect easier. Our choice, Selyn, strongly answered our questions, having the qualities you need when undertaking both a dog and a house sitting position: honesty, reliability, dependability, conscientiousness, and a full commitment to our peace of mind. She communicated openly with daily updates and photos. She administered meds and picked up scripts. She soothed our highly anxious dog with an earnest and true-hearted approach, ultimately winning our dog’s heart. Selyn takes her job seriously, and a huge plus, she radiates a sincere cheerfulness in her devotion to duty. P.S. Upon return, our house was immaculate.”

About: I have been dog sitting for others for 4 years now and have had cats and dogs most of my life! I am an avid pet lover and love helping out pet parents care for their fur babies. I have trained basic skills, potty trained and crate trained dogs. I am no longer offering boarding or house sitting as I have a new needy roommate, (pictured on my profile) Daisy 🌼 I am a recent graduate student and work part time in the mental health field. My schedule is fairly flexible and I am able to be home often if needed for a pet. I am a good fit for dogs/cats that are able to manage 6 hours alone for days I have to work! I offer a quiet and patient presence for your pets! I will accommodate your pets needs whether that’s lots of snuggles or just a person to check in. Every pet has their own personality and I completely understand any accommodations or activities your pet needs.

“Katherine was great - she stayed overnight at our house and she took great care of our animals and house. She kept us updated with pictures and videos of all the animals. She was very flexible when we were returning home and her communication was overall excellent. We'd highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their animals!”

About: I have spent lots of time with elderly dogs and cats, and I love ensuring they have the consistent care they need while their humans are away. I have also worked with young pets who are house or litter box training. I also love fish, rodents, and reptiles! If you have a zoo at home, I may be the sitter for you. -Gwen (they/them) I currently nanny a small human part time, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. Week days I am available before 10:30am and after 3:00pm. Weekends I am free all day. Overnights are always available. I deeply value the trust it takes to have someone in your home taking care of your beloved furry friends. I strive to provide care that keeps pets happy, safe, and satisfied while maintaining a calm and clean environment in the home I am visiting.

About: Hi! I have experience with taking care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I would always be the one that neighbors and family friends would rely on to make sure their fur babies were cared for while they were away. I care for every cat and dog as though they’re my own and send you as many pictures as you’d like of them while you’re away :) I’ve done this part time since 2021, and just recently switched to full time at the end of 2025. I’ve been using Facebook groups and my town page to find my clients, so I decided to give this a try :) Please reach out if you’re interested! I do this full time, so I usually stay the whole day and night, but sometimes I go out for a couple of hours at a time to help other clients or run on errands. I make sure not to be gone for longer than you say you’re comfortable with. I can take your pups on as many walks as they need! I’m active and love hiking and running, so I can always drive them somewhere to join me on a small hike or run :) I always follow your instructions for whether or not you want your pets leashed when they’re outside. A lot of times, I’ll keep them leashed anyways while letting them out into the yard. I usually stop by at some point before our scheduled time so we can meet each other and I can meet your pets. I usually ask for a note detailing the daily care/routine for your pet, along with important information like emergency phone numbers, and which vet you go to.
