About: I didn’t grow up with dogs of my own but all my friends had dogs and some of my family did, too. I’ve been around Great Danes to little chihuahuas. I do take care of my best friends two dogs when she is working her 12 hour shifts which includes letting them out to potty, feeding them, giving treats and of course all the rubs and lovings. I currently work part time at a doctors office so my afternoons and evenings are very open. Doing care in the morning before work is also not an issue. I do start work at 7am, but I am happy to stay the night or get there early before my shift. I unfortunately would not be able to offer services in my home unless it was a caged or tanked animal because I do have 4 cats currently. One of my cats is absolutely terrified of dogs.
“Eric helped me when I was really in a pinch. He was kind, communicative, and dog-centered. Took my pup on a long walk and tired her out in a great way. Highly recommend.”
About: Dog sitting was my first job as a teenager. My mom actually gave me the idea to start because she never wanted to have a pet, so this was such a fun compromise! Since then I’ve dog sat for small, medium and large dogs! I myself am an active person and love to be active with a furry friend! It’s nice to have company on a walk run or even someone to explore new parks with! I work full time but my schedule is fairly flexible! I am a therapist and have ability to work from home at times as long as I am not in a session or scheduled to run group therapy! I am happy to stay at your home and care for your pet with the instructions you give! I am happy to walk, play, pet, feed and clean up after your dog.
“Ricky "petsat" our elderly dog and 2 cats in our home for 4 nights and they were well taken care of. Our dog requires multiple medications and Ricky was comfortable with administering. He didn't balk at cleaning up little cat puke! He is quick with communicating and sent us photo updates. I felt comfortable that our fur babies were being well cared for. Thank you Ricky.”
“Lauren responded quickly to my request for a week-long stay at my house with my two rescue dogs. She brought along her dog, “Nala” and my sometimes cranky border collie had a great week playing with her. Lauren noticed my grass was tall and asked if she could mow-yes! I was happy to come home to a house that was clean and neat, with linens washed (!) and dogs well cared for. I will definitely be asking Lauren back!”
“Sarah was great! The dogs were at ease when we got home from our trip, which was such a relief! She took great care of the dogs and kept the house in order. She is very easy to work with, and we will definitely work with her again!!”
“Lavinia went above and beyond to take care of our fur baby. She was extremely attentive, caring, and patient. She sent us regular updates with lots of photos, so my husband and I were not worried about our dog at all. Our dog opened up to Lavinia so quickly, which is very rare and we appreciated that she took our dog on long walks even in rainy days! She also kept our house very clean. We would book her again without a doubt whenever we need to be out of town!!”
“Emily was very communicative and friendly! She took great care of our three pets and house. Our pets are very needy and require extra attention with medication and she was very attentive and gave them the best care! I will definitely use her as a sitter again!!”
“Ona took great care of my dog for the weekend! She took her on lots of walks and sent plenty of updates each day so that I knew how everything was going. She went above and beyond to help me out this weekend!”
“Laquan had a challenging assignment: looking after 4 vivacious French Bulldogs for a couple days. One in particular, required special handling because he is moody. Laquan rose to the challenge and kept the peace.”
“Katherine was great with my puppers and my place. She sent regular updates and pictures and it was just overall a great experience. Sometimes it's hard leaving your pets with new people, but you can feel secure that they will be well taken care of and loved while away. Thank you!!!”
“Christine took great care of our two dogs and our home for a full week. We received updates daily with pictures of the dogs enjoying their time with Christine and came home to the house in fantastic shape. We hope to have Christine again when we’re out of time next!”
“I can’t say enough about Kate! After this stay she feels like family ! She kept us up to date on all our pets activities and bonded with both our dog and cat in ways that even surprised us. She and her husband James are truly pet whispers !! I really think our dog misses her and while he was excited to for us to return home he perks his ears up and goes to the door at the mention of her name !! We will definitely use again.”
“Nikole was amazing!!!!! She took care of our favorite child, our mini- schnauzer, watched our cats and fed all 90 of our fish in our fish tanks while house sitting for a week. She updated us multiple times a day, sent videos, photos, and was clear with communication. She took great care of our house shoveled our driveway without being asked and left it in tip top shape. We walked in to a clean home with soft music playing on the tv with videos of dogs playing to keep our pop occupied. She travels with our highest recommendation and we plan on using her all the time moving forward!”
About: I’ve taken care of some of my family and friends pets for about a year now. I really enjoy taking care of them, playing with them and taking them on a walks. I’m a student at St John Fisher, I also play football, most of my football stuff will be in the early mornings. So I just need to be able to work around that and my class schedule I will show up to the house and take care of the pets and anything that needs to be done with them, I am open to exploring options
“Saoirse was great with my dogs. She came in understanding the dogs had individual personalities. She asked what worked and asked for suggestions when my picky eater needed a different approach. Saoirse sent me both pictures & videos to keep me updated. I came home to happy dogs. She was good with communicating.”
“Ranait was an incredible house sitter for my shy and nervous dog! She had last minute available to help us out in a pinch and was so thoughtful in her communications and updates. She took excellent care of the house and most importantly, my furbaby. We’d use Ranait again in a heartbeat!”
Upper Falls pet parents share their Rover experiences
Corwin took very good care of my two 15 year old Munchkin Cats. I had him do overnights since Mochi, the female needs medication daily. I rarely go away more than 4 days and I was very comfortable leaving for over a week. Corwin sent me many photos and I could see how both cats loved him being around! I definitely would recommend Corwin to take care of your fur babies! 😻😻
We had such a great experience with Madeline and truly couldn’t have asked for better care for our dogs. She was incredibly responsive from the start and consistently proactive with communication, which made the entire process feel seamless and stress-free. What stood out most was the level of attentiveness and genuine care she showed—our dogs were clearly comfortable and well looked after, which means everything to us. She was also punctual and reliable, which we really appreciated. It’s rare to find someone who combines professionalism with such a natural ease around animals. We felt completely at ease while we were away and would absolutely recommend her without hesitation. We’ll definitely be using her again in the future.
Mackenzie did a great job with our German shepherd puppy and our two cats! She even watched our house for us while we were gone creating a worry free vacation for us! She brought in our mail and packages, left us a beautiful hand written note and washed the sheets! She went above and beyond. Our puppy got plenty of walks and socialization. We got frequent updates, pictures and videos.. we can’t wait to go on another vacation and use MacKenzie again!
Lavinia is such an attentive and caring dog sitter, and she treated our home wonderfully too, leaving it in better condition even than when we left to travel internationally! Her pictures of our two dogs and four guinea pigs were great to have not just while traveling but for memories, and she is thoughtful about asking questions and being in touch; we'd 110% recommend her and will be looking to book her for our next journeys!
Katherine is absolutely wonderful — warm, genuine, and so reliable. We felt completely at ease while we were away knowing Zelda and Luna were in great hands. Her communication was great throughout. We'd have her back anytime without hesitation and wouldn't think twice about recommending her! ☺️
Luis was a God send that went way above and beyond his call of duty. I was so concerned about the impending snow and how my dog would react. On the snow day he stepped up and took extra care to make sure she never experienced any pain or discomfort. As a house sitter he kept in constant contact providing updates about my fur baby and my home. He followed every requested item on my baby’s schedule to ensure and maintain her health schedule. I would highly recommend Luis as a pet sitter and dog walker.
Saoirse was AMAZING!!! Very communicative, responsive and wonderful with both me cat and dog. She came to my home and we did a meet and greet and immediately I trusted her. She sent pictures of the animals etc... I will 100% be using her again and I highly recommend her.
Nikole was absolutely wonderful with our two kitties! We were traveling last minute because of a family emergency and Nikole was very understanding and flexible with us as our schedule changed and she was able. While we were gone, she sent us regular photos and updates about the kitties, which we really appreciated. The house was cleaner than we left it when we got home. The peace of mind she gave us was truly unmatched - thank you, Nikole!
When Kelsy housesits and provides pet care for our extended travel. we know that our pets ane home are cared for very well. We come home to a house that is cleaner than when we left and pets who look forward to seeing Kelsey the next time she sit sor us. Our new dog MAREE snuggled with Kelsey and will look forward to seeing her again soon.
Arianna is very reliable and communicative! She gave us frequent updates on our kitties and sent good photos. She also helped with information for an unexpected emergency vet visit (recurring illness with one cat) after we returned from our trip! She is friendly and helpful and a great cat sitter!
Jess was wonderful! She made sure to come by the house to meet our boys before we confirmed booking. While Jasper, our anxious pup, refused to eat (normal for him when we are away, he lets anxiety take over) she made sure to double check with me before introducing peanut butter to coax him into eating more normally. She also sent plenty of photos and went above and beyond and was sweet enough to even bring our mail in! We would happily have her back to watch our boys! Thank you so much Jess!
