“Wonderful overnight pet sitter! Alyssa took great care of our dog overnight and left our home just as we left it, clean and tidy. Our pup was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Highly reliable and attentive. We’d definitely book again!”


“Lavinia did a great job with Rusty. This was my 2nd booking with Lavinia and both time she did a great job! Great at communicating and took great care of my pup. She even drew a beautiful sketch of my pup! Thank you Lavinia!”


“I can’t begin to share how reliable and helpful Alicia was. This was a last minute house sitting for our pup and she was so helpful and kind. She’s walked her often and sent us pictures and even helped us take our trash out while we were out even though she didn’t have to. She’s a true gem and we cannot recommend her enough!”


“I felt very secure in leaving my dog with Ona as my first big trip away from her for 2 weeks! Ona was communicative, caring and flexible to meet everything I was needing while away. I returned to a very happy dog! Highly recommend her services!”


“I alway am anxious when i have to leave my dog at home. Not this time. Deja was the absolute best. She kept us informed, sent pics, gave our pup lots of love, walks…. He was a lucky pup and so were we. Thank you so much Deja.”


“Draco spent some time with Bethany this past weekend. She was amazing. Communicated amazingly and sent a ton of photos which I appreciate. I was super nervous leaving him but it seem like it went really well and he was happy when we got back to get him. We will be leaving him for 10 days coming up and after this past weekend it has put me at such ease knowing he is going somewhere he is loved and cared for.”


“Teri did a wonderful joint with Quinton. It was my lady and I’s first time using rover and we felt like she made it easy. We were comfortable and loved that she kept us in the loop with updates and pictures.”


“David is the first sitter we have used on Rover for our dogs and cat, while we were away for the weekend. He is phenomenal; our nervous pups took to him immediately and I got pics of relaxed, cuddling dogs - and our GSD is not typically a cuddler so this was even more remarkable. All the pets were calm and happy when we came home. He took great care of our home as well. We will definitely rebook! We are very happy with his care.”



“Rene was great. She did everything asked of her. The best thing is that she spent most of her time at my home with the dogs! Most sitters only had a few hours they could be available through the day, and then would just sleep here. Rene dedicated her time to being here with my fur babies, which was the most important thing for me”


“Short notice trip. Regular sitter was on vacation. Found Emily on Rover. Phone interview followed by meeting at the house to introduce dogs. Emily was PHENOMENAL. Constant updates and photos. She's a keeper!”


“Ricky did an amazing job taking care of our three dogs in our home! We have already booked him again for next month and as long as he wants to continue staying with our little pet family, he will be our first choice!”


“Nina was a great sitter for our three dogs. Even before the booking and meet/greet, she asked questions to get to know our dogs and their routines. She’s very thorough and detailed. Nina communicated throughout the stay with pictures and updates on how they were doing. She kept the house clean also. Would recommend and book again!”

“Suzanne stayed in our house with our 2 dogs for 9 days and did an awesome job. She was a great communicator - we got daily updates which gave us so much peace of mind. She stepped in at the last minute after other plans feel through and dealt with our older dog's medical issues smoothly. And when we returned she had clearly put a lot of effort into making sure the house was clean and ready for us. Maybe the most impressive thing about Suzanne's work is that both of our dogs were really calm when we returned - happy to see us, but not overly crazed like they often can be.”


“Anna did such an amazing job communicating with us and sending pictures of our 2 dogs while we were away. I plan on using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for care for their animals :)”


“John was amazing. This was the first time we had a sitter for our 10 month old lab and he made us feel so comfortable and relaxed about the entire experience. He helped train our dog and made him comfortable when we were gone. We can’t wait to ask for John to help us in the future. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about dogs. Lucky to have found him.”


“Nikki did such a great job watching Lakota! She took the time to come over and do a lengthy meet n’ greet so we were able to get to know each other and we could share details about Lakota. When we arrived back home the house was clean and Lakota was calm and I could tell she was well cared for. We will definitely be reaching out to Nikki for all of our dog watching needs in the future!”


About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. Since I was born, my family has had dogs of all breeds and sizes, as well as a small farm. I believe pets deserve the love and care that make them feel like true members of the family. With seven years of experience working in healthcare, I know how to provide attentive care, affection, and the right support in any situation that may arise. I’m an active person who enjoys running, cycling, and racing sailboats, so long walks and playtime are never a problem. I believe in keeping pets engaged, comfortable, and happy—because a healthy, stimulated pet is one that enjoys a longer, fuller life. A little about me: I graduated from St. John Fisher and, while I don’t currently have pets of my own, that simply means I can give your furry friend my full, undivided attention. I would love the opportunity to work with you and get to know the four-legged members of your family. I’m currently seeking my next employment opportunity, which means I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friend. Whether it’s an overnight stay, a drop-in visit, or just a quick walk around the block, I’m here to help. With my background caring for both household pets and farm animals, I am confident in my ability to look after your beloved family member. While I do not currently have pets of my own or the facilities to board them, I am well-acquainted with local dog parks and experienced in safely managing animals, including keeping them separated if any agitation arises
