“Cori always does a fantastic job with the pups! She keeps me very updated on what's going on with them and talks about them like she's their bff. My dogs can be quirky because I have a very alpha female but she handles any difficulties well! We've already booked 3 times in 2 months because she takes such great care of them.”

“Cammie was very quick to respond and do a meet and greet same day we reached out. She was very attentive, took very good care of the animals and communicated every time she fed and let my dog out to potty. This was my first time using Rover for my animals and I will definitely be using Cammie again.”

“Margaret was wonderful with my dog Murphy . He struggled at first to get used to someone new and Margaret stopped in a few times and was very patient and encouraging with him so he would be comfortable with her and they did great together! I highly recommend Margaret ! I am sure Murphy will be happy to see her again the next time we need someone to pet sit !”

“Kristi was amazing with our crew !! She knew we had just taken in our Gracie as a rescue pug and gave her all the extra love and snuggles that she needed to feel safe and loved ....she spent lots of extra time in our home to ensure they didn't feel our absence even working remotely at our place which was great for our pugs/cats. She kept us informed of daily events and sent lots of snuggle snaps which made us feel better. Kristi even left us homemade biscotti for our return home. I can say with full confidence that Kristi is motivated by love of animals and helping others...we will most certainly hire her back to our home for all our Rover needs :)”

“Diana was fantastic and we would 100% book her again. Our two dogs took to her quickly at our initial meeting, which put me at great ease. She stayed in our home for 3 nights with our 11 month old puppy and our 14 year old dog. They both have completely different personalities and needs. Diana sent us videos and photos of the dogs, and little updates each day. The house was also well taken care of and looked as if no one had been here. We were able to enjoy our trip without worry and knew the dogs were in good hands. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter.”

“We had to go out of town for a week for our wedding. As it can already be a stressful time planning a wedding, Emalyn kept us updated every single day with a picture of our dog and ensured she was doing great, giving us a peaceful mind for our big day. Emalyn did an absolutely amazing job. I have a pitbull rescue that is very hyper and Emalyn made sure she had her full attention and playful times with her. I will definitely book Emalyn again to watch our dog again!”

She kept us up to date on how they were doing and how much they ate, and she even took the time to give our pet frogs some basic maintenance which was very helpful! Will absolutely book again and will recommend her to anyone looking for some wonderful cat care!”

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 pet sat for neighbors and family friends for years and for long periods of time. I have taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs and fish. I also have experience working with reptiles and snakes as an intern for an environment education center. I took care of a box turtle, corn snake, and painted turtle. I am in college full time but am willing to watch or stop by when I am not currently taking a class. I am a junior at SUNY ESF. And have a relatively light schedule that would allow me to dedicate hours to your pet if needed. As I live in an apartment I do not have any pets nor can I board pets. However, I have my own car so I can travel to take care of pets. If you wish to have overnight care I can stay on a couch or blow up mattress by your pet for safe company.

About: What sets me apart? I’m locked in. I learn your pet’s routine, quirks, and preferences like it’s my job because it is. So let’s connect This is my after-work ritual. I schedule cat visits into my evenings and weekends so I can show up calm, consistent, and fully tuned in. Fewer bookings, better care, no chaotic energy. I care for cats in their own homes to minimize stress and disruption. Each visit includes feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, enrichment or play if your cat is interested, and careful monitoring of behavior and appetite. I respect boundaries and stick to your cat’s routine exactly as outlined.

About: Since middle school, I have been known among friends and their families for my reliability and enthusiasm in caring for their pets. Recently, I have provided regular pet care services, including dog walking, cat and dog sitting, and checking in to let dogs out for multiple friends. My experience and dedication ensure that pets receive attentive, loving care in their owners’ absence. I currently work two part-time jobs with limited hours, giving me a flexible schedule. This allows me to be available most of the time and accommodate scheduling. With clear instructions on dos and don’ts I am positive I can insure that your pet is well taken of and keep hopefully happy along the way

Kara stayed with my two large dogs for 4 days, and was fantastic. She gave them lots of attention and plenty of exercise, and even got the really anxious guy to eat. Kara kept in contact and sent the best photos. It was a truly stress-free experience for me, and the dogs were very relaxed and happy when I returned. The house looked great as well. Happy dogs and a clean house; no better way to end a trip.

Meagan did a great job watching our pups. Bella, our golden retriever, showed off her hunting skills by catching a squirrel. Typical golden she had to roll on her catch to make sure every part of her body was coated with her prize. After some convincing and bribery Meagan was able get the squirrel and dispose of it. And then she gave Bella a bath ... all was good. Our house looked great when we arrived home. And Meagan left us notes on each of the two dogs. It was such a nice surprise to find those kind words. We hope Meagan will be available to watch Bentley and Bella for each of our travel plans when we can't travel with our pups.

We have a special needs dog who doesn't prefer meeting new people.

She was great about communicating and sharing pictures. It was a relief to know our dog was at home in good hands while we were traveling!
