“Adriana took great care of our cats! I wasn’t worried about them being okay while I was gone while she was checking in on them. She provided lots of pictures and details of her visits. She also went above and beyond to help with some house upkeep during her visits which I really appreciated.”
About: Hi, I'm Brooke! I’m 19 years old and have been around animals my entire life. Growing up, I was never without a pet, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. My first cat, Hunter Patches, was a huge part of my life before he passed last year. Since then, I’ve welcomed two new cats, Loki and Marie, into my family. I also have a 10 year old rescue dog named Gunner and recently rescued a bearded dragon named Dino. I’m comfortable caring for cats, dogs, and reptiles, and I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, play with, check on, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals of all kinds. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life. I have a flexible routine and enjoy spending time feeding, playing with, walking, and giving attention to pets throughout the week. I will care for your pets like they’re my own by keeping them fed, comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow their routines closely, give them plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they feel calm and cared for in their home environment.
“Pam did an amazing job with my 3 kitties. She sent pictures with all of the updates, and was even able to win over the shy guy of the bunch. Will continue to book in the future.”
About: Hello, my name is Amanda! I grew up around all different types of animals ranging from dogs and cats to birds as my whole family are huge animal lovers! I even helped at a doggy daycare that my family owned some time ago.I originally started dog sitting for my family and friends and decided to branch out to help other animal lovers which brought me here on Rover! I currently 2 dogs.My dog Sadie as well as my dog other dog Libby,who are my world! I recently lost my other dog Gunner,who had doggie dementia so I have experience caring for older dogs that have special needs. When they're here ,your dogs will be treated just as how I treat my own , with lots of love and care. I have a 6 foot fenced-in yard as well as a doggie door so your dogs can go outside .I also walk my dogs everyday and would love to bring yours along if allowed . I eventually plan on going for my nursing degree later next year but am currently home most days.I currently work part-time as a home health aide 4 days a week for 4-6 hours each shift. My dad is with me for part of the year from winter to early spring . I have some experience in handling special requirements/and or medications as one of my own dogs had special needs and requires daily medication for her skin allergies . I also offer house sitting, drop ins and am able to do whatever is required to make sure everyone is taken care of and happy!
“Andrew was absolutely fantastic! He took care of my Loki for 15 days and I couldn't have asked for better service. He was incredibly reliable and flexible, which made my trip so much less stressful. Amazing service – 5 stars!”
“Alyssa is doing a wonderful job with my anxious chihuahua! She has been so accommodating and has been willing to go slow to help him adjust. He usually takes many repeat introductions before he is ok with anyone new, but he absolutely adored her starting from the very first visit!”
“Alison and Robert are incredible! They take such great care of my cat. I can tell they genuinely enjoy spending time with my cat and take the time to play with him! I feel so at ease knowing they are taking care of my cat while I’m away!”
“Naomi is our “go-to” caregiver for our cats, she goes above and beyond to make sure they’re taken care of and we can relax while we’re away knowing that she’s always quick to communicate, she’s reliable, trustworthy and clearly cares about our pets.”
“He did a fantastic job of taking care of our girls while we were gone. They were fed, watered, played with, and poops cleaned up. We came home to some very happy cats.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, including feeding, providing fresh water, and ensuring they get regular exercise through walks. I have looked after my friends dog on multiple occasions, taking responsibility for their daily needs and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m actively looking to walk dogs as I enjoy walking them during the evening time. I’m a teacher so during school year, lm available 3 pm and onwards I am only offering dog walking service since I live in an apartment, it will be very difficult to take care of the dog here.
“Taylor is very reliable. She came for an initial a meet n greet, was flexible with scheduling, and showed up on time. Very responsive by chat and Rover app, and I like that she took advantage of app tools to streamline communication. I would recommend Taylor for dog walking and dog-sitting.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for more than 20 years. I grew up with dogs in my family, I eventually moved out and decided to get a dog of my own. I’ve dog sat and dog walked for friends and family for years. I’ve been around dogs of all ages, and would be willing to treat yours as my own! My work schedule is a bit different. I work for the Syracuse Fire Department and we work 24hr shifts. On my 2 work days a week, I use family members or Rover for pet care. But I have 5 days off a week! So on those days off, I have plenty of time to care for the pups! My schedule does rotate weekly so I will just need to make sure I’m off the day pet care services are needed. I live in an apartment so I’m used to walking since I have to walk my own dog everyday. I usually walk her to the park around the corner or drive to trails/parks for walks and playtime. I would be willing to open my home to your dog and provide just as good care for them, as I do my own. I would be able to go to your house and take care of your dog just as well.
“Meghan handled the visits and my cats excellently. I came home to two contented cats and knowing I was coming back at the end of the evening, Meghan cleaned up so I wouldn't have to. What a wonderful surprise. I was so grateful. I will ask her again to visit my cats.”
About: I was raised in a household with dogs. I have always been a lover of dogs, and have recently been considering getting one of my own. I have cared for friends and families dogs in the past, and promise your dog will be in good hands. I currently work m-f 9-5pm, however my job is very flexible. I have the option to work from home, and on days I do not work from home I have the flexibility to stop home throughout the day. I love to go for walks and enjoy the outdoors. I live close by to a dog park to take the pup to run around if that is something you are comfortable with. For cats, my own cats are very needy so I understand cats needing more attention that most people think/assume.

Kaylah was awesome with our German Shepherd who can be a little much to handle sometimes. She gave her a nice long walk and we came back to a happy and surprisingly tired dog after being gone all day! She even gave our kitties some love while we were gone. We will definitely use her in the future.
Jessie was phenomenal watching Keena! I highly recommend booking Jessie to care for your pets. The level of genuine, positive care Keena received was amazing. My original care plans fell through and Jessie was kind enough to accept my last-minute request. Not only was Jessie gracious enough to accept help me out, but Jessie came by to meet Keena and make her feel comfortable before watching her. Jessie gave many updates, sent photos, and was always playing with Keena during visits; clearly making her feel comfortable. Jessie also dealt with some fear issues my dog was having, and did everything possible to make Keena feel better. When I returned from my trip, Keena was wagging and happy as could be, which told me she was well taken care of while I was away!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Solvay 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 Solvay 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. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Solvay with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
