“Levi is awesome to work with! My dog Alfie absolutely loves going to daycare everyday and comes home so tired and happy, which makes me very happy too. I love the pictures and updates I receive throughout the day and Levi has been so accommodating with schedule changes. Would recommend without a doubt!”


“I really am so happy with the care my dog received here. She was happy and would have probably been happy to stay and play with these wonderful humans! It feels great to know that she is being loved a LOT! Highly recommend.”


“Fritz was amazing and definitely tired Stok-Li and Kali out, they couldn’t even stay up on the ride home! He was great with them and they felt automatically comfortable around him.”


About: Hi! My Name is Sam I’ve had pets my entire life and for the last four years, I’ve started caring for others I recently just joined Rover and am excited to be able to help care for more animals while their families are away. I have experience caring for puppies, dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds. Growing up, I had a Pitbull, German Shepherd, and a Chihuahua. I also grew up with a cat that had special needs and rescued a litter of kittens and provided all necessary medical care to the four kittens to ensure they were healthy and able to be adopted to great homes. From pet sitting, long or short walks, and boarding I’ve got experience with it all! My goal is to make sure your animal enjoys their stay away from home and is as comfortable as possible. I will maintain any schedules you have for your pet, administer medications if needed, and of course give your pet extra love and attention during your time away. Your pet will get lots of walks, cuddles, and attention. They have free range of the home unless requested from pet owners we do not crate any pets in our care, and we work from home your pet will never be alone! Daycare drop off and pickup hours are between 6 am and 7 pm. Any time after 7 pm would need to be booked as boarding and pickup for the following morning. I offer extended stays as well.

“Very satisfied with Barbara’s care of our senior Yorkie. Barbara was quick to respond to messages and she followed some pretty detailed instructions to the letter. And she sent several pictures during the day.”


About: I've had pets my entire life! I've taken care of my own pets - dogs, cats, snakes, gerbils, and rats - who have had a variety of needs including meds, fluids and inhalers, and friends', family, and neighbors' pets! I have always been a huge animal lover and having just moved back to Rochester with my partner as he starts his residency, I have a lot of free time! I would love to help with your animals! I have two cat and dog friendly cats who have a good routine and are always looking for new friends to play with! My apartment is secure and I dote on my kitties!

“Quinn is fantastic! She was welcoming and loving to my pup. She kept me updated throughout the day with regular photos and comments which I loved receiving. My pup was exhausted from running and playing all day with her doggies in her large, fenced in yard. My pup & I look forward to him returning to her top-notch care!”


“Haley and Amanda were great daycare hosts for our dog Jager! We booked a VERY last minute daycare with them and they were exceptional. Pickup and drop off were seamless, there was active communication throughout the day and photos of Jager playing with their dogs. 10/10 experience and I would absolutely book with her again. :)”


“Portia was amazing and I could tell through pictures and videos that he was having a blast. You know he has so much fun when I had to carry my 90lbs dog to the car because he didn’t want to leave?!! Thank you Portia!”



“Another awesome stay with Susan and Ella! This is the perfect, safe, playful, loving environment for our one and a half year old lab mix. The backyard is basically dog heaven, and Susan makes sure to keep all dogs safe and happy. All of the dogs that Susan hosts are awesome, and our girl always has a great time. Susan always checks in with videos and pictures, and her care for and knowledge of dogs shows every time. Having our pup stay with such a trustworthy, caring family is a huge relief to us while we are at work or out of town. Thank you Susan! :) ”


About: I’m a 24-year-old nursing student with a passion for pets, the outdoors, and staying active! With lots of experience caring for family pets and raising five kittens of my own, I’d love to give your furry friends the care and attention they deserve! I’m currently working part time, and full time taking asynchronous classes before I go away for my nursing program. Thus, I have a very flexible schedule and am looking for extra money before my move! I take pride in being organized and respectful, and I’ll follow any instructions you provide to ensure your pets and home are well cared for. Your space and your pets will be in trustworthy hands!

“Andriana was great with Monte while we went to the PGA tournament this weekend. He had a great time playing outside and went on a walk. Thanks again, we will definitely be using her again if we are back in Rochester.”


“Sydney took our two large dogs so I could concentrate on enjoying the company of my young grandchildren without concern of them being knocked over. We dropped them in the morning and picked up at night. We got pictures of them going on good walks, and Sydney was great about responding to texts. We would definitely have her watch our boys again.”


About: *If you are UNSURE if will need boarding DO NOT send me a boarding request unless you are 100 percent sure you need services, please and thanks. Be sure to fill out the questions about your pet fully prior to contacting me, so I can inform myself about your dog. *I must preface that this site is not my primary way of booking dogs so the calendar may not always be up to date. The best way to know my availability is to message me once your service needs and dates are cemented. I provide a specific service accepting one dog at a time. I own a home that I work out of as well. I do a family dog style stay, rather than kennel format I do family style boarding. I can stick to your routine or we can do something different like getting your dog out for more walks. I understand how difficult it can be to find a place for your dog to feel the same security they do in your home with your family. I realize many people are adopting dogs that need strong handlers dogs that may be reactive or have social issues. I also understand how difficult it can be to find a boarder who is skilled in this area and a handler that your dog feels comfortable and confident with specifically if they are reactive with other dogs. And it is for this reason, I only board multiple dogs if they live in the same home. I will not accept a cold booking without meeting the dog first. Based on 24 hour schedule extra days past scheduled time naturally occur extra fees. I work for myself from home so I make my own schedule daily. I can adjust to any schedule. I typically have the dog on a nice regular routine while here. I care for all pets as if they were my own. I only take one animal at a time all of my repeat clients return for this reason alone.

About: I’ve been taking care of a variety of pets as long as I can remember, from little fish to big ol’ dogs. I also worked at Irondequoit animal hospital for nearly 4 years so I’ve just about seen it all. My time at the hospital has provided me with experience in oral and injectable medications and other basic medical and grooming procedures. I was involved in the training of a service dog puppy in 2023 and my family and I have fostered puppies with a rescue organization for the past couple years. I am currently a psychology student at University at Buffalo but my schedule should be updated to reflect my availability during breaks! My calendar reflects my school breaks for winter holidays and summer. While I’m home for the summer I work part time Seabreeze, but my schedules are very flexible and I can easily work around things. My cats are scared of everything so they hide upstairs whenever dogs are in the house. I have a baby gate up so the dogs cannot go upstairs. My backyard is not fenced in but I have a dog run cable that leashes can be clipped to so they have plenty of space to run with supervision. In your home I will abide by whatever routines and rules you have.
