“Holly has been walking my dog, Amelia, three times a week for a while now, and I couldn’t be happier. She’s my first dog walker, and the experience has been excellent. Holly is consistent, communicates clearly before and after every walk, and always sends photos, which I really appreciate. Most importantly, Amelia seems to really like her! I’m so glad I found Holly, she has been a wonderful help.”

About: Hi pet parents of Buffalo! Here’s a little about me: I began pet sitting on Rover 7 years ago while attending graduate school in Atlanta, and have received so much joy from meeting and caring for dozens of people’s pets throughout the years. Now, I’ve been putting down roots here in Buffalo and have made caring for pets my full time business. Based on your pet’s needs, I am available for drop ins daily between 7am-8pm, including holidays and weekends (check ins outside those hours can be discussed on an individual basis). I know how hard it can be to trust your pet with a new person. Rest assured, I will treat your pet like my own 2 cats (spoiled and loved)! I pride myself on connecting with each individual pet, my communication with clients, following instructions, and my reliability. Please, do not be embarrassed if you have a 5-page instructions document for your pet, or, alternatively, if you needed to book last-minute and only have time for a virtual meet-and-greet; I am here to adapt and provide care for your particular situation. Please send me a message or request to see if we may be a good fit. I can't wait to meet your pet! As pet sitting is my full time business, my schedule during normal business hours is very flexible. I typically accept drop-ins between the hours of 7am-8pm, although visits outside those times can be discussed on an individual basis. The services I provide are: - 30 minutes-1 hour drop-ins in the clients home to feed/play/other duties for cats/dogs/other animals -30 minutes-1 hour walks from the clients home for dogs Other time frames or scenarios can be discussed on an individual basis. For new clients, I provide a free in person or virtual meet & greet to discuss pet care before booking.

About: Howdy! I have had animals all my life, dogs,cats,hamsters,bunnies and even a horse! I love animals of all sizes and ages. I'm not permitted to have animals where live, so I would love to shower your fur baby with all my love and care. I can do it all..walks,bathes, feeding or just snuggles and comfort! I've recently left the world of retail( I'd much rather spend time with the furry kind!) I have all day to devote to your four legged family member. I find myself outside and walking all the time. I would enjoy sharing these walks with your pet. I'm also available for those overnight slumber parties with your puppies(all dogs are puppies at heart)! From all my pet sitting experience, I've found that keeping them in their home, is a safer,calmer and more relaxing environment! So I prefer to stay in their home. You might even find your dishes washed!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, caring for and having fun with them has always been something I genuinely love. Over the years, I’ve worked at dog daycares, boarding facilities, and veterinary offices, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I recently moved to Texas from New York, and one of the hardest parts of the move was leaving my own dogs back home with family until I’m fully settled into a place that’s perfect for them. I miss having them with me every day, so getting to care for other people’s pets means a lot to me. Because of my veterinary experience, I’m comfortable administering medications and providing basic care when needed. I understand how important it is to stick to your dog’s routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog is a couch potato or a ball of endless energy, I’m happy to tailor my care to their needs. I especially love high-energy dogs and would be more than happy to take them on long walks, runs, hikes, or active play sessions to help them get the exercise they need. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to care for every dog as if they were my own—giving them plenty of love, attention, exercise, and affection while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. Pet care fits very naturally into my schedule because I work from home and have a flexible routine. I typically wake up around 5:30AM each day and either head to the gym or go on a 3-mile walk. If your dog enjoys being active, I’d be happy to have them join me on walks or runs. If they’d rather stay home, they can enjoy time outside in the backyard, getting fresh air and exploring. After my morning routine, I’m home for the rest of the day, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, meals, and companionship. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine and make sure they receive the care, exercise, and love they deserve throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, sniff, and explore, as well as a spacious home with plenty of room to relax. It’s just me and my boyfriend in the home, and we both genuinely love spending time with animals. We’re a very active household—we enjoy being outside, grilling, relaxing by the pool, going on walks, and staying active. Whether your dog loves playing fetch, going on adventures, or simply lounging in the air conditioning, we’ll make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I tailor my care to each dog’s personality and energy level, so they’ll never be pushed to do more than they enjoy. My home is dog-friendly, and I’m more than happy to snuggle your dogs (or cats) on the couch or sleep in bed in bed with me if that’s what they’re used to at home. Since I recently moved to Texas and had to leave my own dogs with family until I’m fully settled, having the opportunity to care for and enjoy the company of others pets truly means a lot to me. I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own.

Whether your pup needs a playmate or a calm companion, I’ve got you covered. I know routine is key. I am primarily online student. I am happy to discuss a schedule based on what your pet is used to. I’m committed to meeting your pet’s unique needs—whether that means checking in a few times a day, heading out for walks, or being a close companion while you’re away.

About: I grew up with at least 2 shepherds in my house at any time and learned through doing how to take care of them. I love developing a relationship with a new dog through training and play with dogs of all sizes and ages. I currently work as an audio engineer for a band so the work is sporadic and requires me to travel. Dog sitting allows me to fill in the awkward gaps. I love to take dogs out to parks with my 2 year old Doberman (if you like). He is extremely sweet and gentle as well as a great play mate.

About: Having cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages for over 15 years, I treat every pet like family. I understand that each dog has unique needs, whether it’s energetic play and long walks, patient puppy routine reinforcement (crate training, gentle redirection, and potty breaks), or calm, gentle comfort for seniors. ​I take pride in creating a structured, safe, and positive environment so your dog feels completely at home. You can expect frequent photo updates, open communication, and thorough attention to routines, feeding schedules, and favorite quirks while you’re away. Pet care integrates seamlessly into my daily routine thanks to my flexible schedule. Because I work independently from home, I have wide availability throughout the day to provide attentive supervision, frequent potty breaks, feeding, and interactive play sessions. I can easily accommodate weekday drop-ins, walks, and daycare, as well as overnight boarding and weekend stays without leaving your pet unattended for long stretches. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, pet-proofed environment where routines are respected and separate spaces can easily be arranged for feeding, rest, or crating whenever needed. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with complete respect, following your precise safety rules, leash protocols, and emergency procedures. You will receive regular photo and text updates so you always know your pup is safe, relaxed, and having a great time.

About: I've had a dog since I was little, so I grew up with dogs. I have trained my roommate's dog some tricks: gives paw, high five, spin, speak, whisper, and other tricks. I can try to train even the most stubborn of dogs, I am patient and stubborn too and will keep trying. It may take awhile. I love long walks, I usually do recall and discipline (stop, sit and wait until no more pulling) while we are on walks. I am pretty available right now when it comes to daytime. Bigger dogs will be more of a challenge for me, but as long as they don't bite I'll be okay. I am excited for this opportunity to show dogs love and take care of them.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
