“Rachael did a great job with Theo! She sent updates and pics which were so appreciated. We have never done anything like this before (hiring from Rover) and will definitely use Rachael again. Thank you!”

“Meghan was an incredible care taker of my two dogs while I was out of town. I was sent informative reports and several pictures with her visits and will be highly recommending her services in the future. If you're in the Sodus, New York area and you use her services you won't be disappointed”

About: I have been a devoted animal lover and pet owner for many years, and caring for both cats and dogs has always been a true passion of mine. I understand that pets are beloved family members, each with their own unique personalities, routines, and needs, and I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own. I am dependable, compassionate, and attentive to detail. Whether your pet is an energetic dog, a playful cat, a shy rescue, or a senior or special-needs companion, I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My experience with rescue animals and special-needs pets has taught me to be especially patient and observant, allowing me to quickly notice changes in behavior or health. Nothing makes me happier than earning an animal’s trust and ensuring they receive exceptional care while their family is away. My goal is to provide not only outstanding care for your pets, but also complete peace of mind for you. As a full-time high school teacher, I maintain a structured and dependable schedule, working from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM during the school year. This allows me to provide pet visits during the midday, if needed, and dedicated walks and care immediately after the school day. Caring for animals is an important part of my daily life. I share my home with two dogs, who enjoy their walks as soon as I return home, as well as my cats, who are part of my evening routine. This firsthand experience as a pet owner helps me understand the importance of consistency, exercise, affection, and attentive care. In addition to my availability during the school year, I have school vacations, holidays, and summers off, which provides greater flexibility to accommodate your schedule and your pets' needs. I am committed to providing reliable, compassionate, and professional care so you can feel confident that your pets are in excellent hands. I provide attentive, personalized care in your home so that your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their regular routines. I understand that consistency is important for reducing stress and helping pets feel secure while their families are away. During each visit, I ensure that your pets have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes or potty areas, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. For dogs, this includes walks, outdoor breaks, and interactive play tailored to their energy level and needs. For cats, I provide feeding, litter box maintenance, enrichment, and quiet companionship on their terms. I am experienced in caring for rescue, senior, and special-needs pets, including administering oral medications when needed. I take the time to observe each pet’s behavior and overall well-being, and I will promptly communicate any concerns. I also respect your home and will keep feeding areas, litter boxes, and pet spaces clean and tidy. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you have peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving loving, professional care.
“Anna was a wonderful pet sitter! She was very kind, caring, and attentive to my two cats and two guinea pigs, and I could tell she really took the time to make sure they were well taken care of. She also spent plenty of time playing with my cats, which I really appreciated. Anna was very responsive whenever we needed to text her about something, and overall she made the whole experience feel easy and reassuring. I would definitely rebook with her!”
About: Having been through a fairly traumatic dog attack myself, I made it my mission to learn all about dog's behavior and why they do what they do. I have studied different ways of training and learning how to react to certain situations with them. I promise to love and give all the fun play time, cuddle time, and attention to your favorite furry friend! Your doggy can sleep in my bed and hang out on the couch. If you are anything like me, your dog is your best friend and child! I had an amazing female Boston Terrier who lived to 13 1/2. I am versed in care of elderly dogs. My new venture is a deaf puppy. We are learning hand signals for training. He is very friendly and loves to make new friends. If you have any questions about what I'm willing to do, or can and can't do, please don't hesitate to ask me! I work for a family business, and can bring my dog to work. Therefore, your pup will be able to come to work with me! I will love your baby as if it was my own. Dogs will always be leashed outside. They are allowed on furniture here and are welcome to snuggle anytime! But if you have different rules , please tell me so I can abide by them.
About: I have had pets and been surrounded by animals my whole life. I currently have two boy cats named Loki and Oscar and a chihuahua named Yogi. I have taken care of cats, kittens, special needs pets, and all types of dogs from newborn to senior. I am currently unemployed because I have just moved back home to NY from TX so my availability is wide open for now. I am unavailable for boarding or housesitting because I am staying with family and have two cats of my own whom I need to be with overnight. At my home I provide a water fountain, toys, treats and a separate space if needed. We also have a fenced in yard and a puppy pool! I spend genuine time and patience with each animal I care for to ensure there is a trusting relationship. No one wants to be stressed out especially not your beloved pet and I’ll take the extra mile to provide that comfort.
“Jessie is fantastic if I could give her more stars I would. This is my first time using her she goes above and beyond with the dogs. My dogs are soo important to me and my dogs were very well taken care of plus she has even helped me with some other personal things that weren’t pet related. It’s so wonderful to have someone I can count on for future pet sitting needs and I will definitely use her again!!!”

“Very loving towards my puppy. They delightfully came to meet her prior to drop in visits then gave her all the attention she craves during the visits. Followed all the instructions very well and provided daily pictures of my puppy while I was away.”

“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.”

“Heather did really well caring for our little man while we were away for the weekend. They got along great and he even ate for her! Would recommend her and would.love to have her come back for future visits!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 16. It started with watching my neighbors dogs! I have lots of experience with older dogs and puppies! I’m currently finishing out my Masters Therapy Program so have online classes, allowing me to be flexible and giving dogs attention whenever needed. Being home for the summer gives me the opportunity to give dogs the full attention and 1:1 time they need. I have such a passion for taking care of dogs that I will always put them first. I take care of dogs by giving them a nice long walk, playing with their dog toys with them, fetch, etc. I think physical activity is so important for dogs.

About: I have had dogs, cats, and other animals, in my life for as long as I can remember. From puppies to seniors, administration of medication, and normal care/training.
