“Jessica and her family watched our pup Clementine for a long weekend. She was a little nervous since it was her first time away with new friends but Jess made her feel so welcome and she got comfortable right away! We touched base daily and she was great at communicating. She was also flexible and easy going which helped make everything easier! Would be happy to recommend to anyone and would gladly have them watch our furbabe again! ??”
“Wonderful as always. Great couple and my dog Winnie has made a best friend in there dog. They will always be my sitters as long as they are available. Highly recommended.”
“This could not have been a better experience!! Heather and Joe were so kind and clearly took great care of my pup! He even came home with a cute picture their son made for him. Communication was great! They sent updates and pictures so I could see how much my dog enjoyed his stay with them.”
“Jessie always takes good care of our dog Abby. When she gets to his house she goes right to his side. I don't have to worry about her and it makes it easier to leave her.”
“I booked Beverly because I thought she would take good care of my Lola while I was away. And she did. She messaged me almost every day I was away and sent pictures! Lola had a good time and got along well with Bev’s dog, Daisy. An added “perk” is the fenced in back yard where I knew Lola could do her “zoomies” safely. I didn’t worry about Lola getting good care while I was away. I highly recommend Beverly and would book with her again.”
“Jenn was awesome!! She sent pictures of all the adventures our dog had with her. Ducky seems like she has a great time and has been sleeping for days lol.”
“My puppy was so happy at Courtney space! And I appreciate Courtney was doing a wonderful job sending me photos of my puppy. I will definitely reach out to Courtney for taking care of my baby doggie again. 100% recommend her!”
“Dana was absolutely amazing from the beginning! Responded quickly and was very helpful. My dog definitely had a great time with her and she sent me updates. Would absolutely book with her again.”
“Charlette was wonderful!!! Nikey does well with new people, but can get nervous in new environments. Charlette treated him with kindness and patience. She was able and willing to work with his normal routine and sent plenty of updates and pictures, which helped me feel at ease. Nikey warmed up to her, her home, and her family quickly. We are so happy to have connected with Charlette and will absolutely request services again!!!”
“So appreciative of Jack and Emily taking great care of our 12 year old golden, keeping him secure and happy even when he was having trouble eating. Jack communicated clearly as always, tried out many ideas for helping Murphy's appetite, monitored his favorite porch napping spot, and provided extensive petting (Murphy's love language). We are so grateful to have such a wonderful addition to Murphy's senior days.”
“Erica was great! Super flexible and willing to take on Henry with pretty limited notice! He had a great time at her house, and Erica provided plenty of pictures and updates as to how Henry was doing! 6 out of 5 stars, would absolutely book again!”
“Jodie and John were excellent with our dogs. We have an elderly dog and a dog with special needs. We couldn't have picked better people to watch our dogs while we were away. They sent pictures everyday and updates. They put meds in our elderly dog's eyes daily. Absolutely wonderful place to take your dogs to. Our dogs had the best time ever!!”
“Raisa took wonderful care of our dog, Bonita! We could tell Bonita had a fun and comfortable stay, and she almost did not want to leave. Raisa went above and beyond by giving Bonita extra home-cooked dog food and comforting her during loud noises and thunderstorms. Bonita also loved spending time with her daughter and husband too. We are so thankful for the love and care Raisa and her family gave Bonita. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
“Our usual dog sitter canceled and I was able to secure Michele that same day.. She met us with a warm welcome and a smile that reflected her love for animals. She also was adaptable to our needs and willing to adjust the times. We would definitely ask for her again. As an added bonus, a fenced in yard!”
“I had a fantastic experience with Carol. She took excellent care of my two dogs, providing constant updates that kept me at ease throughout. Her attentiveness and communication made the entire experience comfortable and worry-free.Highly recommend! A wonderful setter.”
“Jordy had a wonderful time at Mindy’s- he even became friends with her cat! He was happy to be home but I’m betting he would gladly go back. I’d happily ask Mindy to care for him again.”
“We left our two pups with Andreas for 10 days and it was the first time we boarded our dogs so we were a bit nervous. But he was so wonderful with them, and they felt so loved the entire time. He kept us regularly updated and couldn’t have asked for someone better to look after them.”
“Anne is wonderful! She is very accommodating! She sent us multiple picture updates of our girl and is easy to communicate with. Her home is very clean and dog friendly. We will definitely be using Anne in the future!”

“We absolutely recommend Samantha to anyone looking for help with their pet , she is a wonderful, caring, professional and kind person who adores animals!!! We were so thrilled with her services, and will definitely use her again. She came to our house for several weeks, doing drop-in visits with our dog when I was out of town working remote. I received a over Report Card everytime, detailing all the care and the fun that they had together. She also sent multiple pictures everytime as well. Millie looked forward to Samantha's visits and they became fast best friends. They played fetch, went on walks, had potty breaks and food breaks and lots of cuddling! Thank you Samantha:)”
“Megan did a excellent job watching our little man Guido. He can be very picky on who he gives his attention to. In every picture she sent he was snuggled up on her. Which means he is very happy and comfortable. So glad we found Megan as a sitter. We will definitely use her again.”
“Colleen was a real blessing, took on my 4 animals in one days notice for 4 days. I had a sitter booked and she was a nightmare night one and Collen just picked up where she left off not knowing me or my pets and I was already away in another state. She was so compassionate and loving toward them and me, lots of great pictures throughout, brought in my mail and garbage can. Sweet as can be!! Thank you Colleen for being there for us!!”
“I've never hired anyone to look after the cats before. I've always relied on my elderly mother to take care of them while I'm away. The thought of having a stranger in my home while I'm gone made me feel uncomfortable but I wanted piece of mind in knowing that if mom faced any health concerns that the cats would still get care until I return home. Melissa was at the top of the list, on Rover, for people in my area so I read the reviews left by her past clients and decided that she was worth a gamble. Before I went out of town, she came out to meet us and I showed her around the house. She was present at all the times we agreed on and sent a daily note and pictures of them when she could. (They used to be feral and love to hide from strangers.) I hope Melissa is available the next time I go out of town. I'm thoroughly pleased with her service and hope this review helps her to get more clients that may have a situation similar to mine.”

“My babies are typically not too comfortable with people they do not know. Tatyjana Communicated with me that the dogs went under the bed but did not give up. She said she was trying to get them to warm up to her and they did. We will definitely have her back again.”
“MacKenzie was absolutely amazing. I was supposed to have someone else catsit for me, but they canceled last minute and MacKenzie was legit a lifesaver. My cats are typically pretty shy and reserved but they absolutely loved her. She is great and reliable and super nice. I had some packages outside and she brought those in for me. She was thorough and even my shyest cat let MacKenzie pet her. I can't help but recommend her!”

“Shannon was absolutely fantastic! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, keeping us updated every step of the way. She sent us pictures during each visit, which was such a relief and really helped us feel connected while we were away. Most importantly, she took amazing care of our cat—he clearly loves her!

About: We have taken care of many Dogs over the years between the 2 of us. No special trainings or skills just basic training with lots of patients and love We both work from home 8am to 5pm. So we are here for your puppers through the week. We both have weekends off. We have part of the front/side of our yard fenced. I also have an invisible fence that can be used if your dog is trained on it. I take 2 15min breaks and half hour lunch during the week. Can take them to Krull Park that is nearby after I get done with work, and on the weekends. Go out have fun. We got you! We have a fenced in yard in the side/front of the house. We also have deep steaks with long cable leashes for them to roam around on the other part of the yard. If your dog is trained on an invisible fence, we have one also with a extra collar. Will never take them off leash unless they are in the fence, on the cable, or in the house.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 17 years and have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets as if they were my own. I’m attentive to routines, leash safety, and each dog’s individual needs — whether that means a long, energetic walk or a slower, more relaxed pace. I’m especially patient with dogs who are nervous, shy, or need a calm presence, and I always prioritize safety, comfort, and positive experiences. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I’ve set aside dedicated time for dog walks! I’m flexible with weekday walks and happy to accommodate regular weekly schedules as well as occasional walks when needed. I focus on being punctual, reliable, and consistent so your dog can count on a familiar routine🐾 Your dog’s safety is always my top priority! I follow leash safety at all times, pay close attention to body language, and tailor each walk to your dog’s comfort and energy level. I’m careful with weather conditions, traffic, and surroundings, and I treat every dog and home with respect. I’ll always follow your instructions and provide thoughtful updates after each walk!
“Anne was wonderful with our Ivy! She was very accommodating with us as well, we were very last minute and she was great! Thanks so much! We will for sure use Anne again in the near future!”
“My Peekapoo is excited to be left in Martrice's care for the day and to play with the other pups. What a relief to have found a pet sitter I trust to give my furry friend attention and affection! And I enjoy the photos and communication she texts while I'm away. Martrice is flexible, always smiling, and a joy to work with. I highly recommend her and will continue to use her daycare and boarding services.”
“Carol is such a sweet lady and a true dog lover. She is hard to beat. I wish all Rover’s were this kind, loving and caring. She truly cares. She played with Murmaid all day, I could tell, because when my baby got in the vehicle she went right to sleep and that never happens with this high energy Boston Terrier 10 month old. I highly recommend her. She is amazing. She sent pics and communicated every day. Murmaid was pulling me to her door and pawing to get in for each drop off. Murmaid just loved her. I am making a special trip to come back through so Murmaid can spend a little more time with Carol. It was the best Rover experience I have ever had, and I use Rover all the time while traveling with my baby across the country.”
“Danielle is awesome! She exudes dog-people-ness: our dog was immediately comfortable in her home (and with her!) and she did a lovely job of caring for him/delivering him home at the end of his visit. We received adorable photos and felt entirely confident he was in great hands all day. Thanks Danielle!!”

“Jenn & Brian made it so easy to plan a daycare stay for my two dogs while I was planning a visit to Niagara Falls. During the day, they sent cute pictures of the dogs, including one with their son having three dogs sit at attention. I could tell when I picked them up they had a great day and made new friends.”
“Erik and Lindsay are amazing! Kind, Responsive, Thorough. They have a great setup in the backyard to make sure your dog can exercise throughout the day. I would highly recommend them.”

About: Raised with the help of two Doberman “nannies,” in the home of a veterinarian. I was brought up in a home from tigers to monkeys and have a natural pull towards caring for all animals. Hi, I’m Raisa. I’ve lived with and cared for Dobermans, Dachshunds, Labradors, Australian Shepherds, Mixed Breeds, and now a senior Siberian Husky who adores other animals. I’ve raised puppies, supported seniors, and learned how to read a dog’s communication style quickly and intuitively. What sets me apart is the combination of: 🐾 A lifetime of hands‑on experience, including a course in Canine Science 🌿 A calm, confident presence 🎯 An ability to understand each dog’s unique personality and needs 🏡 A home environment that’s warm, structured, animal‑savvy and has a LARGE FENCED YARD Your pup will feel so understood and cared for, they’ll think of my home as their second home. I work from home full time so I will always be around hanging out with your pups from 8am-5pm and the evenings. Scroll down to "A Typical Day" to view their daily routine. I have a large fenced in yard and a very friendly female Siberian Husky who respects and loves fur babies of all sizes. Since our yard is large, we can accommodate multiple dogs at once if you have a large family. My pup is vaccinated and up-to date with flea, tick and heart worm meds. ATTENTION: No Indoor Marking Policy I cannot host dogs who mark indoors. Even small amounts of marking can damage flooring and trigger other dogs to do the same. If marking or repeated accidents occur, I will contact you for early pickup. Thank you for understanding and helping me maintain a safe, happy space for your pups.
About: I care for my blind shih tzu at home, so I know to keep my eyes and ears out to ensure safety for any animal! I am a student athlete at the University of Pittsburgh, so I know how to balance and diligently prioritize things! I currently only am busy for about an hour and a half every morning, to get a run in. Besides that I am free the whole day to take care of and watch your pet! :) I make sure your pet is safe, and feels comfortable in my care. I know when to go slow if a pet is more shy, but also I love to take pets to parks, go on walks, and cuddle!
“Rosalyn was exactly what you want in a doggy sitter and went above and beyond to make Marli’s very few experiences away from home exceptional! Marli and their doggy Lilly had a great day together. I would highly recommend Rosalyn to anyone who wants a sitter that makes your doggy feel special and loved. 🐾💚💜”
“Charlette accommodated our day care request last minute and took such great care of our dog! She was kind when we needed flexibility with drop off. She sent adorable pictures through the day, and our dog was so happy and tired on pick up. Highly recommend!”
“Carrie took great care of my baby while we were out exploring the Niagara Falls. She was quick to respond, asked great questions, and overall provided the peace of mind we needed to enjoy our day.”

About: I have had both cats and dogs for nearly my entire life. I have owned and cared for dogs of all ages and sizes, some with special needs. I believe that for the love and companionship animals offer us, the least we can do for them is make sure they are well loved back and always happy and healthy! As of Monday, May 18th 2026 my schedule is back to full availability. I look forward to helping with your pet care needs and making new friends! ☺️ If you have a fenced in yard, I am more than happy to play with your pup in their own yard. If you do not have a fenced in yard, I would just ask that their leash and a secure collar be placed in an area where it is easy to find, as well as instructions of how far/long you would like them to be walked/exercised. I am also willing to accommodate any other requests clients may have to ensure the safety and well being of their pets.
About: I have loved dogs my whole life. Unfortunately (with the exception of when I was very little and one year as a teenager living with my mother) I grew up without dogs living with my father in an apartment. Getting married changed that as my wife at the time of dating had one dog and we now have 3 wonderful dogs, all rescues. We have also fostered in the past. I am passionate about rescuing dogs and dogs (and all animals) rights to a loving home free of abuse. I receive so much joy from being with dogs and have formed a strong bond with all 3 of our kids. My wife and I have no human children so the dogs are pretty much our life. As of now I am in between jobs so I have a lot of availability. I am looking for late mornings through the evening. I unfortunately cannot do overnights or earl mornings. I don't think I could do it at my house as out dogs do not always get along with others especially on their territory. I would be available to work I your home or I can provide dog walking services.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages, and I truly love getting to know each pup’s unique personality! I treat every dog like they’re part of the family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. I also have 2 dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I always make sure they get plenty of attention and care! I work full time as a nighttime server, but I love staying active and spending time with dogs, so I’m always excited to fit walks and pet care into my schedule whenever I can! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine, energy level, and personality so they can feel as relaxed and happy as possible. During walks, I stay alert to surroundings, keep dogs securely leashed, and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and water when needed. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all care instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their normal environment.
“Tatyjana was phenomenal! She took great care of our 8 month old corgi, Poke, during his walk and was careful to not let our 3 year old indoor cat outside during the process! She is very professional, and made sure to keep us updated from the start of the walk to it’s finish. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”
“Melissa is awesome! I needed a dogwalker last minute and she totally came to my rescue. She was beyond personable and professional, and I know my puppy enjoyed having Melissa come take him out for a midday stroll. She even practiced manners with him!! ?”
About: I have been taking care of a variety of animals since I was 5 years old! If you need someone trustworthy, caring, and kind to animals to watch your babies, I am definitely the one to call!

I treat all animals as my own, and I believe that each and every creature deserves respect and love, no matter how small (or how crazy) they may be! I recently graduated college with a degree in Elementary Education, and am on the hunt for jobs! For the time being, I have a completely open schedule, and am free to visit your pets anytime you would like me to be there! I can care for any type of animal, small, big, feathered, scaled, furry, etc.! I am extremely careful when working in other peoples' homes, I know how nerve-racking it can be! I will care for each and every animal to the best of my abilities, making sure every animal receives the love and care they deserve. When I am watching your animals, you don't have to worry! I can promise they will be in the best hands possible!

About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I love to take my dog on walks at the beach and play in the yard with him. I am attentive to any reactions they might have to their surroundings as well. I’ve been looking for a job during the week days and I figured why not try this out to maybe help some families live their life if they’re on vacation or super busy. I have a friendly dog who will keep any pets company. I have a big yard with sun or shade if any dogs love to be outside. I also have crates if dogs need to be crated during the night or day.
About: I have worked in the veterinary field for 4 years as a vet technician and now embarking on a new career within the pet field. I have fostered over 100 dogs in the last 8 years, young and old, healthy and some with medical needs. I love all fur babies big and small and look forward to this new chapter. I run a small hobby farm and am home 24/7 so available all day to relieve animals for potty breaks or playtime. With animals of my own we are sure to get them the exercise or needs met. I have a large fenced in backyard or a long tie out for those that can jump or climb fencing. I have some playful fur pets that can keep them company or a separate living room if your animal needs his or her own space.

About: I've had and cared for my own pets since I was a little girl, including dogs, cats, rabbits, fish and reptiles.

My boyfriend and I currently have 2 dogs of our own, and a 5 month old baby boy! We go for daily walks on the canal or at the cemetery near our house, as long as the weather permits. I love animal training and the study of animal behavior. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, so I am very free throughout the day all week! We already go on our own daily pack-walks, so adding a couple more furry friends here and there would be no problem! Our dogs love to play and have a ton of energy! We love doggy play-dates whenever we can get them. We have a decent sized back yard for dog play, and our basement is also a designated puppy-play zone when the weather is wet or cold. We have two long leads in our backyard to ensure no furry friend comes or goes without us knowing. Our dogs are very friendly with other dogs, and love to play and run with new friends!

About: At age 10, I started my own dog-sitting service from my backyard. Since then, friends and neighbors have consistently trusted me to care for their pets, and I’ve loved every minute of it. I have also worked with animals in a number of other capacities: behavior consultations, training and enrichment, rescue, and as a veterinary assistant—both emergency and general practice. I take a particular interest in reactive and fearful dogs. My own dogs were very high maintenance with epilepsy and severe anxiety, and my cat had diabetes, so I took their care very seriously. I treat other people’s pets how I would want mine treated, and that is with the utmost care and respect for the pet's and the owner’s expectations and boundaries. I am committed to providing a safe, healthy, and fun environment for each pet in my care. I work overnights, so I have time during the day to care for clients’ animals. I have plenty of time to devote to your pet and will spend as much time as possible with them. I keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible. This is why I care for your pet in your own home instead of home instead of mine—it’s what they know and where they’re most comfortable. I’ll update you with pictures and videos often!
About: Hi fellow dog lovers, my name is Rocky, a 25 yo male college undergrad that just moved here to buffalo. I’m originally from New Orleans Louisana. I come from a home of two shih-tzu dogs, (Popsicle and Levi), which I had to leave behind with my mom and sister. I enjoyed walking, feeding, stimulating, and just being all around loved by my two best friends. And I am looking to explore the same opportunities with your beloved pet. I promise to give the upmost care and attention that your pet deserves. Pick me as your personal rover walker or sitter, and let the worries go. You will come home to a relaxed, well excercised, and already gone for a potty, loving dog. That is my promise.
About: Hi my name is Sarah! I grew up on a farm in Royalton, NY with lots of different types of animals such as dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, and much more. While growing up I gave each of the animals love and attention even the chickens. My parents always rescued animals even some of the chickens. My childhood animals stayed at my parents house due to them being older and since I moved to Ransomville, NY I always stop by so they can have some sissy time my mother calls it. I have 3 dogs (Jessie 12yrs, Romeo 9yrs, Izzy 3yrs) 2 cats (Cowy 9yrs, Sophie 9yrs) , and 1 bearded dragon (Littleman 10yrs). As of right now only little man moved with us due to the other babies are older and have only known my parents house, but they do come over for holidays and family events and love to see my house and littleman. My mother always told me when i pull in the driveway all she has to say is sissy is here and they all go crazy happy to see me. I love them with all my heart, and i treat every animal that I take care of with love, attention and most importantly like they are my own. I love helping animal families with care for their children. I sometimes work in office and other times at home, If you need around the clock care and I am in the office, I can make arragments to get care when I am not there, sometimes my husband helps with some of my clients and loves animals almost as much as me. He always says I love all animals and he loves animals to but will never have the connection to animals like I do. I do take care of lots of animals in and outside of my home such as dogs cats, reptiles , and farm animals such as horses, chickens, rabbits, goats, and even cows. I know most animal parents have a schedule for there little ones and also ground rules. I always ask when I meet new families I am taking care of if they have any rules or schedules for their animals. I always want to make sure when they are gone on vacation or even a day trip, that their animals are well taken care of and also to make sure that their children enjoy there time away as well.

“Jessica and her family watched our pup Clementine for a long weekend. She was a little nervous since it was her first time away with new friends but Jess made her feel so welcome and she got comfortable right away!

Would be happy to recommend to anyone and would gladly have them watch our furbabe again! ??”

We are so happy to have connected with Charlette and will absolutely request services again!!!”
“So appreciative of Jack and Emily taking great care of our 12 year old golden, keeping him secure and happy even when he was having trouble eating. Jack communicated clearly as always, tried out many ideas for helping Murphy's appetite, monitored his favorite porch napping spot, and provided extensive petting (Murphy's love language). We are so grateful to have such a wonderful addition to Murphy's senior days.”
“Jodie and John were excellent with our dogs. We have an elderly dog and a dog with special needs. We couldn't have picked better people to watch our dogs while we were away. They sent pictures everyday and updates. They put meds in our elderly dog's eyes daily. Absolutely wonderful place to take your dogs to. Our dogs had the best time ever!!”
“Raisa took wonderful care of our dog, Bonita! We could tell Bonita had a fun and comfortable stay, and she almost did not want to leave. Raisa went above and beyond by giving Bonita extra home-cooked dog food and comforting her during loud noises and thunderstorms. Bonita also loved spending time with her daughter and husband too. We are so thankful for the love and care Raisa and her family gave Bonita. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
“Our usual dog sitter canceled and I was able to secure Michele that same day.. She met us with a warm welcome and a smile that reflected her love for animals. She also was adaptable to our needs and willing to adjust the times. We would definitely ask for her again. As an added bonus, a fenced in yard!”
“Jordy had a wonderful time at Mindy’s- he even became friends with her cat! He was happy to be home but I’m betting he would gladly go back. I’d happily ask Mindy to care for him again.”
“We left our two pups with Andreas for 10 days and it was the first time we boarded our dogs so we were a bit nervous. But he was so wonderful with them, and they felt so loved the entire time. He kept us regularly updated and couldn’t have asked for someone better to look after them.”
“Melissa and Gregory were incredible! This was our first time using Rover and they put us immediately at ease. They welcomed our rambunctious puppy into their home with open arms, making us feel confident that he would be well taken care of. He had some tummy troubles going on when we had to leave and they were so understanding, telling us not to worry. He made a mess in his crate one night because of this and they were so understanding, not bothered at all. They cooked up his brat diet (ground beef and rice) for several days until his stomach was working better. Leo came back to us healthy and happy. I highly recommend Melissa and Greg - they are just super!”
“Heather and Nathan were absolutely awesome with Gaia while we were out of town. Heather provided a few updates everyday with photos to put our minds at ease while we were gone. Id highly recommend booking with Heather and Nathan :)”
