About: Ive had animals of all kinds growing up. My family, friends and neighbors have all felt safe leaving their fur babies in my car when they need to leave them for a day or more. You can trust they will be in great hands. Im currently work full time. I can be at your home in the morning, after work and overnight any day of the week. I can also go on my breaks depending on location. I will keep your babies in their normal routine or a temporary routine. I will follow your instructions to a T. I will give them lots of love and playtime. I can follow any dietary needs. I also have experience in medications if your babies require them.

“Jack and Emily took very good care of Riley. They spoiled her and made her comfortable as it took her a day or two to adjust to her new surroundings. Jack was good about sending pictures and updates. He even sent her home with a special treat. Thank you for watching her for us!”


About: From the first moments I could remember, I have always been around and caring for dogs and cats. I'm also a professional equine bodyworker, with medical experience that is easily translated over to our smaller, 4-legged friends. I take a gentle and intuitive approach with animals, focusing on positive reinforcement. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. If staying at your home, I will never be gone for more than 8 hrs at a time. Weekends are usually no issue to schedule around either While staying at your home, I stick to the routine you have developed with your pets to make it as stress-free as possible. I recognize the importance of structure with dogs and cats, and losing that while their humans are away can be a big stressor. I will do my best to act as an extension of you while you are away to ensure the most personalized care.

About: I’ve had family dogs for my entire life! I currently own a sweetest dog named Rocky! Everyday I feel like I get to attached with them more than I do with people! Love taking them out on a walk, dog park, or wherever they want me to take them! I have a summer break until like beginning of September! Would rather have weekends to myself until 2-4pm! If you need me during weekends we could definitely make it work! I live in an apartment so it would be better if your fur babies want to stay at their homes! I can do whatever works the best for them!

About: Hi my name is Janet. I have over 10 years of experience in taking care of animals. I have always been a huge animal lover and have revolved my world around animals. I am fully trained on animal cpr and first aid as well as medicating animals including insulin injections as well! *must be a stable diabetic* I will always monitor your pets to make sure they are eating, drinking water and going potty while in my care. I accept pets of all temperaments and always fully respect the animal in my care. I work at their comfort level to ensure they stay as safe and stress free as possible. I have lots of experience with handling dog reactive dogs as well as stranger danger animals. I have also given all types of different diets to animals so no diet is too complicated or gross for me! I know that every pet is completely different and all have different personalities and I promise to always do what’s best for your pet in my care even if that means staying out of their personal bubble if they prefer space over affection. I also have pet safe transportation and can take your dog on adventures to local parks and trails! I also will send daily photo updates if you would like them while they are in my care! I currently manage a doggy daycare/boarding facility in scottsville. I either work 6a-2p or 12p-8p there. I can easily leave mid shift on my lunch breaks to check in on your pet if those shifts are too long to leave your pet alone for! I also used to do overnights so if you work nights and want to keep your pet company while your at work no time is too late for me!! I can either take care of your pet in your own home or at my home! My house has a fully fenced in yard that is escape proof (my own three dogs helped me make it escape proof) as well as your pets own area that is separate from my own pets that they can safely rest and relax. I have crates available if your pet prefers to be in one when left alone but the room is also pet safe enough where they can be left out to safely roam. They will always have access to clean water and food (based on what their feeding is)

“This was our first time using Rover.com and we were skeptical however Kayligh was amazing. Our dog and cat loved her and when we got back we couldn’t even tell she had been there. The house was how we left it. We will definitely be booking again. She also stayed an extra hour which was really nice, walked the dog, cuddled and played with our dog and sent us pictures. She also got back to us really quickly when we had questions which made us feel like she cared.”


“I searched for quite a while to find a pet sitter that my fur babies would be comfortable with. Also someone who would put my mind at ease while I’m away from them and from home. Someone patient, trusting, responsible, kind and has all around good vibes. When my fearful dog (who does not like anyone except her family circle, especially did not like the last pet sitter) was not afraid of Sydney, I knew my babies were in good hands. Sydney took care of my 3 dogs (age 7, 4, and 7 month old puppy) & 2 cats ( age 11 & 12) as if they were her own. By day 2 of house sitting, they were relaxed and cuddling up with Sydney and in their usual routine. From the start of the day, Sydney made sure to communicate with me throughout the day and send pics. I highly recommend her!”


About: Hi there! I’m Laney, a recent graduate who works full time, mostly remote, which means I can spend the day with your pets, giving them company, playtime, and care while you’re away. I have experience with a variety of animals, including dogs from playful puppies to senior pups who may need medications, as well as cats, guinea pigs, and chickens. I’m more than happy to accommodate to meet your pet’s needs. If you have any questions or would like to discuss how I can help, please don’t hesitate to get in touch! Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! 😊 I work full time, primarily remote, which means I can stay with pets throughout the day to give them company, playtime, and care. With few commitments outside of my 9–5, I have the flexibility to adjust my schedule as needed. When I receive bookings, I structure my day around the needs of the pets and their owners, ensuring each animal gets the attention and care they deserve. I carefully follow any specific instructions to maintain the pets’ routines, whether it’s feeding, walking, or playtime. I’m very communicative and happy to share updates and pictures while you’re away, so you can feel assured that your pets are well cared for!! I also make sure the home stays tidy, leaving everything as I found it.😊

“Llysia was great! She sent us pics of our babies and updates! Gave our senior dog her medication and took good care of them while we were away. We would use her again in the future and recommend her!”


“Sarah was fantastic! Hands down the best sitter we have ever had. One of our dogs has separation anxiety and Sarah was great at keeping him calm and happy! Sarah is punctual, reliable and great with communication. She made it so easy for us to feel comfortable and confident going out of town. Thank you so much Sarah, we appreciate you!”


About: I have been in the vet field since 2016. I have been helping other people with their animals for as long as I can remember. I am currently available whenever I am needed. I have a very open schedule. I am willing to stay at owners home if necessary. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask! I worked in an emergency vet hospital for 1.5 years so I am comfortable with pretty much anything such as geriatric and special needs animals.

About: I understand that the worst part of your day is leaving your dog. I absolutely love dogs and will guarantee that your dog will feel safe and happy at home when he/she is with me. I am the one amongst all of my friends that watch their dogs or simply take them out for a hike because they don’t have the time or energy. I have watched dogs from malamutes to Yorkies, and I’m a very active person that loved to exercise my late dog (as of March this year) with hikes to get his energy out! However, if a walk is all he needs or lots of attention at home I am happy to do that. I am a physical therapist and have just completed my canine rehab certification to work with animals and have also recently lost my Aussie of 10 years but not ready to have another, missing my dog interactions! I’m currently working PRN around western NY- I definitely have availability at nights for the long walks they may need and daytime hours are variable according to my work schedule, just ask ! I have availability to a fenced in yard, my apartment would require stairs however. I take frequent walks and can accommodate to your dogs schedule.

About: My name is jaiden, I’ve owned and trained dogs since I was 11 years old, mainly large breed dogs including pit bulls, German shepherds , and labs. I’ve been recommended to friends and family for my remarkable success with training even the most difficult dogs. My motto is patience , kindness , and consistency when it comes to working with animals and I believe that our fur babies deserve as much care and love as anyone else. I also would love to become a veterinarian after college and I am currently saving up for that. I have open availability throughout the next couple months. I do accept same day requests and I will be available Monday - Sunday at any times. Each pet has their own personality, it’s important to get to know them before going ahead with standard routines. I take my two dogs on 30 minute walks 4 times a day as well as off leash yard running time and they are fed meals 3 times a day. They have a play time in the backyard as well as rest time and this is not even half of their routines :) both my dogs enjoy different meal preparations and I make sure to make any necessary changes to their foods to keep them happy and healthy and will do the same with my clients pets

“Ronnie was quick to respond, easy to communicate with and loved on our pups while we were away. We are super grateful for her time with and attention to our fur family. We would definitely recommend her to anyone in need of help with their pets!!”
