“We rebooked Erin since she was so wonderful with our 2 boys last time! She leaves detailed messages on how they are doing, along with photos, which is greatly appreciated. Erin takes the time to truly care for our cats and keeps my mind at ease while being away. I always miss my boys while I go on vacation, but knowing Erin is there to check on them is such a huge help. Thank you again! :)”

“Laura was absolutely amazing as a pet sitter and went above and beyond in every way. She took wonderful care of our two cats, making sure they were well-fed, had fresh water, and that their litter boxes were always clean. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about their well-being. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a pet sitter who provides exceptional service and truly treats your pets like her own.”

About: Hi! My (preferred) name is Daisy & I've been taking care of dogs ever since we adopted my very first canine best friend in 2011! Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their fur babies and I've been handling & working with dogs almost every day for almost two years as a doggy daycare attendant, kennel staff, special pup advisor, and group coordinator. I love taking them on walks and practicing sits, stays, downs, give paws, etc... I absolutely love all animals and promise to take care of your babies as if they were my own! I currently work part-time so I'll have plenty of time to check in on & spend with your pets! I'm available Saturdays before 12pm, Sundays all day, & most holidays before 3pm. Weekday hours vary and I will always be super transparent about my availability! Your pets' safety is important to me so please feel free to leave detailed instructions and I will follow them to a T. I will also keep consistent contact with you, providing (p)updates with photos! I can crate your dog(s) if needed as well. I'm also Red Cross animal first aid certified. I've handled several scuffles and am able to remain calm in any situation that may arise. Your pet will always be safe with me!

About: Hi, I’m Sabrina and I am 30 years old based in Williamsville, NY! While I am new to Rover, I am not new to pet sitting :) We always had at least one dog in the house as I was growing up, and I’ve lived with dogs of all sizes, from chihuahuas and pomeranians to goldens and labs. Family and friends have trusted me to watch their pets since I was 16. I walk them, play with them, make sure they have food and water. I’ve bathed them and given them medicine. Often I’m staying over for days at a time, but I’m also happy to pop in and out when needed. I recently returned from living abroad and am taking some time before looking for full time work again, so I have a lot of flexibility to provide services as needed, any time of day, any day of the week :) I treat every pet I meet as if they were my own, giving them lots of love and meeting them where they’re at - whether that is with exercise, playtime, cuddling or simply existing near them so they aren’t alone. I love sharing update pics with owners when requested. Your pet’s schedule becomes my schedule, not the other way around. It’s important to me they maintain their routines and I’m always happy to oblige.

“I’m very happy with Melissa’s visits and Patch is even happier. I would definitely recommend Melissa with 5 stars.”

“I can’t say enough great things about Erica. She truly loves animals, and sends us the most adorable photos of them while we’re away. Both our cats love her, and it is so comforting when you’re traveling to know that your pets are being cared for by a pet-lover who is reliable and conscientious. Erica is the best!!!”

Cynthia & Ruth M.

“Madison is very thoughtful and I felt very good about her watching my cats:) she checked in frequently with pictures and updates! My cat is diabetic and she was so helpful with her pictures and updates! Would book again!”

Catherine W.

“Christina is the best! She is very reliable and always on time. She visits at least once a week. The kitties love her. I will definitely continue to use Christina and highly recommend her.”

About: Hello! My name is Jessica. I have been a licensed veterinary technician for 4 years. I work part time at an exotics only clinic. If you have any small companian animals, reptiles, or feathered friends that need care please feel free to ask me! The goal of my job is to relieve the stress you may have from not being able to come home to your beloved pets, or to know that they are in safe hands if you go on a trip. I do have a full-time job near Clarence, NY. I work 7:30am to 4pm Monday through Friday. I do get hour long lunches and can stop for lunch visits if you are close. As a veterinary technician I can monitor your pet more closely in case they are sick. Since I do not know your pet or how they react in certain situations, I would take extra caution when going outside or for walks to make sure I keep them safe.

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.

“This was our first experience with Rover and we couldn’t have found a better sitter than Michelle. One of cats is a special needs pet and Michelle was not phased by it a bit. We knew they were in good hands with her attention to both cats. Michelle gets two paws up from us!!”

About: I’m a fun, patient, attentive and big-hearted animal lover with a lifetime of experience caring for pets. Growing up with a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, and reptiles, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs. I’ve cared for pets ranging from reptiles and fish, to senior dogs and cats, to puplies and brand new kittens. At 19, I adopted my first dog, a Bull Mastiff, and raised him from a 6-week-old puppy to a 140-pound adult. I’ve also cared for my family’s cats after my mother passed, and I lovingly adopted a 12-year-old Cairn Terrier, providing him with care until his passing at 16.5 years. While I have no formal training, I have a natural ability to train animals with patience and love, always using a firm yet gentle approach. I’m experienced in handling a variety of species, including reptiles like ball pythons and geckos, and have even assisted with rescuing wildlife. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, my diverse experience, and my ability to provide both playful and responsible care. Your pet will feel loved, safe, and well-cared for with me! I live alone, lost the last of my own critters, and am a seasonal traveler. I go to Argentina for a couple months every winter so I can’t responsibly own pets of my own, but I am built to be around them! I need animals in my life so this is as much for me as it is for you. I work remotely so I have a lot of flexibility especially when it comes to sitting or walking from my home or town. I can be very attentive to your animal to whatever fits their comfort level. I am very active so am I game for hikes, walks, and lots of playing, but can also enjoy a nice sit and snuggle with an elderly friend. I live alone so there would be no triggers from children, other animals, etc. once they’re in my house. I live walking distance from several trails and parks. I also love taking dogs for car rides! Whatever they wish. I am very attentive so I ensure your baby will be content and cared for to the best of our ability.

About: I’ve had three dogs of my own for about 12 years. I have two pugs and one frenchie. My oldest dog is 12 and I give him his medicine and help him get around. My middle dog is 8, and my youngest is 1. I feed my dogs, wash them, walk them, play with them, and administer their medicine. I have experience with older dogs and younger pups and helped my new puppy beat bronchitis! I am currently in college so I an unable to visit from 9-2 Mondays through Fridays but after 2 I am free. My weekends are also free. I get along with all breeds, I’ve been around pugs french bulldogs, labradoodles, english bulldogs, german wire haired pointer, german shepherds, pitbulls, and havaneses. I am very caring and patient as well.

“Sydney did an amazing Job with Mason.. he is not an easy dog to walk (being bigger than most of his walkers) and he was worn out and had so much fun! Thanks Syndey!”

About: I’m a part-time esthetician and devoted dog lover, ready to shower your pup with the same care, love, and attention I give to my clients!

About: Hi! I’m Mary. I am a stay at home mom of 5 year old twins and a 12 year old shihtzu mix. I became a dog walker 5 days a week in September of 2024 by chance and realized how much I love it. I’ve been around animals my whole life, currently including my 8 chickens! If you’re looking for a dog walker, I walk in all weather. I can also just pop in and hang out for a bit and let them out for a potty, change litter boxes, feed, etc! I am experienced with all types of dogs, cats, and other animals and I hope to meet yours too! Currently booked for weekly walks 12-1pm on Monday Tuesday and Fridays. Only other commitment is school drop off and pickup for my twins, otherwise open! I am open to all types of animal care and have experience with elderly dogs. I have cared for big and small dogs, cats, chickens, fish, etc.

“Brooke is wonderful! She took such good care of my dog while I was out of town, and my dog adored her. I won’t hesitate to book her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life as i grew up with them. I’ve taken care of all different age range dogs. I have experience with multiple breeds of dogs also. I currently work from home so I have plenty of time to play, walk, feed, love, cuddle. I also walk outside everyday as part of my routine so that would be no issue! I have an overly friendly pup, and two curious cats. I have no problem with free roam animals, or crated animals, anything to keep you and your animal comfortable during your time apart.
