Highly-rated overnight sitters - Brookdale
“What a great experience! First time using Rover and Rochelle was wonderful with our dogs, she kept us updated with pictures that let us enjoy the family service we had to attend. Will definitely use her services again as we like to visit the Rochester area. Thanks, Rochelle and Rover!”
“Both Kimberly and Chris were very easy to make arrangements with, and their two happy dogs are a great reference! I had peace of mind leaving Murphy there, and the photos Kimberly sent of the dogs hanging out were great. They are nice people that love animals and I think Murphy had a great time with them. They were also really accommodating in terms of working with our plans/needs, which was so helpful. ”
“Gigi is great!! Our pup had so much fun staying with her, Nate, and their dogs. She went above and beyond, even helped with training tricks for our crazy little puppy. She provided clear communication- also- her fenced yard is an awesome setup for playtime!”
“Leslie consistently sends updates and photos with what's going on, making it such a relief when having to travel knowing my pup is being well cared for. I appreciate her care and consideration!”
“I can't say enough about Marie and the great care she gives our little Chica. Chica is always excited when she sees Marie knowing she's going to be spoiled and get to ride in her doggie Uber lol. Marie is the best choice for our little girl!”
“Anthony and Jayson were great watching over my super-hyper, slightly anxious Enzo! They provided me with amazing communication including pictures, and text messages letting me how well Enzo was settling in. They were also sitting for other furry friends and was very communicative in letting me know how Enzo was interacting with the other dogs and the adjustments made if necessary. Will absolutely be back whenever the next trip arises.”
“My little silly goose LOVES staying with Alex and Bethany! They are super accomodating to my dog's needs, excellent communicators and I trust my dog staying there. Thanks again!”
“Through the pics Richardo sent, it looks like my gentlemen had a great time. I will be using Richardo again soon, as in next week! I highly recommend his service to anyone looking for a great sitter”
“Debra took care of my two dogs while I was out of town and she was great! Kept me updated and sent pictures of my dogs. When I picked them up my dogs were relaxed and happy.”
“Kate was very accommodating of my schedule and was clearly comfortable and confident taking care of animals. Cosmo seemed comfortable staying with her, her daughter, and cat, and I will definitely use her service again”
“Rachel was very accommodating with a meet and greet as well as the pick up and drop off times. She responded quickly to any questions, sent updates/pics, and took good care of Scout. It sounded like he had a lot of fun and he seemed happy, calm, and healthy when we picked him up. Thanks, Rachel!”
“Cara and Dan were wonderful with Murphy! They handled his quirks and kept us up to date with photos. Murphy can be an anxious dog, but he came home happy! We love that they only accept 1 booking at a time and allow the dogs to feel at home with them. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Cara & Dan to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Our puppy loves Kasia! When we had to go out of town we knew just who to contact for his first weekend sleepover! Kasia gives lots of pictures and updates to make you feel at ease! Bronco made himself right at home at her house which was awesome to see while we were away! 🥰 thanks again Kasia!”
“We could not have asked for a better sitter for our dog while we were out of town! Thomas took him on many adventures and sent photos every day showing us how he was doing and what they were up to. Highly recommend!!”
“Had a great experience with Patrick. We had an unplanned trip for family reasons and had to find a sitter for Whiskey (1yo unfixed cav) a day before leaving. Patrick was very accommodating with this last minute booking and extending Whiskey's stay for another night. Whiskey had an awesome time playing with Moose. We got updates with pictures and videos. We're definitely going to book again for other trips”
“Amber was a fantastic sitter! She took amazing care of our sweet girl and provided us with great updates while we were away. You can tell she knows how to take care of dogs and I truly felt our fur baby was safe with her. We will definitely be using Amber again!!”
“When’s the next vacation we’ll take!? Garrison ROCKED! She sent photo updAtes and was so flexible and accommodating for our big bear of a dog. We can’t wait to use her again in the future. BOOK WITH GARRISON, you won’t regret it :)”

Cat caregivers near you - Brookdale
About: I’ve been a cat owner for over 50 years and currently share my home with three cats. I understand that cats thrive on routine and that trust is earned on their terms. Whether your cat is social, shy, senior, or a little spicy, I’ll provide patient, attentive care and keep you updated with photos and notes while you’re away.
About: Growing up, I had 4 dogs and a cat, seperated between households. More recently, I've been much more cat oriented since my partner is a lover of cats. I try to stay up to date on training research, and I'm big on communication! Your pet is your family member, and I want to know how to treat them best! I'm a freelancer so my schedule is always changing! I travel a lot both locally and further so making stops and changes in my plans are normal for me! I like to know exactly how you want your pet treated so expect lots of questions so I can ensure your pet feels safe and happy while their best friend (you) is away!
“Bhavneet took excellent care of my cats when I was out of town. She provided prompt updates, pictures, and went above and beyond when one of my cats got sick. I would recommend her services!”
“My Miss Priss kitty cat likes having David drop in to care for her. Her owner loves David's ongoing communication to let her know how things are going with Miss Priss in her absence!”
“She watched over my cat for a couple of hours and was amazing. Updated me with pictures and videos making sure he was okay. He loved the pets and attention from her. Definitely would recommend!!”
About: I've been a foster and pet sitter for mostly greyhounds for the past 20 years, and have always had dogs of my own. I've gone through obedience classes and grooming, and am pretty good with most temperaments. I am very available and flexible, since I'm retired. I can come by during the day, including weekends and holidays, whatever works for you and your pet. Please note that I accept in-home stays that are a minimum of two nights. I can come to your home and stay, or visit to let your dog out, walk, or feed. Safety is a big factor and I'll do my best!
About: What sets me apart is my patience, empathy, and special skills with both young puppies and senior dogs. I have experience with training basic puppy manners, as well as caring for older pets who may need medication, slower walks, or extra comfort. I also provide consistent updates so you always know how your pet is doing. As a Deaf sitter, I bring an extra sense of visual awareness and attentiveness - pets often respond really well to body language and calm energy, which makes our bond even stronger. Families I’ve worked with appreciate my reliability, safety focus, and genuine love for their pets Pet care is a fundamental part of my daily and weekly routine. I ensure I take them for potty breaks 4-6 times a day. I feed them and engage in outdoor play sessions 2-3 times daily, providing both exercise and companionship. I live in an apartment with ample living room space and have access to an outdoor backyard that includes forest hiking trails and a mini dog park. Whether in my home or my client's, I ensure pets have plenty of space for comfort and play. I provide a safe and engaging environment, tailored to their needs, ensuring they feel at home and well-cared for.
“Elizabeth did a wonderful job taking care of my three cats. She came over to get a key, meet the kitties, and learn the feeding routine. She took pictures each day and texted them to me so I could see how they were doing. Next time I travel, I will reach out to Elizabeth again.”
“Kim always goes above and beyond to accommodate my pets needs and to make sure they are happy and well cared for. She's very dependable and trustworthy. I have been using her services for a few years now and have never had a problem.”
“Hollis was an absolute angel for my little man Peter. He kept him company, followed my directions, showed kindness and compassion. He even did my dishes and room out the trash which wasn’t part of the job! We had one miscommunication which he cleared up and made up for. I would hire Hollis again and recommend him.”
“I originally Booked for a drop in visit for christmas Eve. because of the Blizzard my plans changed to the next weekend. deborah was very accomodating to my change. Did a wonderful job with my boys. Will definitely use her again. I recommend her.”
“Kate did a great job taking care of our cat while we were on vacation. She was easy to work with, reliable, and prompt. I would absolutely book with her again for our next trip.”
About: I have loved dogs all my life, and would love the opportunity to care for and have fun with yours! I am kind, gentle and caring, and will be patient with your pet. I believe in positive reinforcement (I have experience successfully training dogs with this philosophy), so you can be confident when leaving your pup in my care. Former teacher turned audiology graduate student, I have plenty of time to devote to caring for your pet. I believe in long walks and plenty of playtime to keep your dog engaged. I am very flexible, and will follow all instructions given as I believe wholeheartedly that you know your dog best. I look forward to working with you and providing the best care possible for your dog. I am currently in graduate school and will have plenty of time to play with your pups! Whether it's a drop-in or daily walks, my schedule is flexible. I have experience training dogs to a high standard of behavior and will use positive reinforcement only. I believe cultivating a safe, positive environment is crucial for a pet's wellbeing!
“Couldn’t ask for a better sitter for my 2 kitties! Sent plenty of photos and even got my shy girl to warm up to her! I appreciate Dawn going above and beyond and cleaning the litter, making sure they got treats, and taking special care on short notice so I could enjoy my vacation worry free. Will definitely use Dawn again!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Brookdale
“Alex was a great host for daycare! He was able to accommodate our schedule, great communication throughout the process, provided daily updates and pictures of Milo's stay. Milo had a wonderful space to play and nap all day, would recommend for anyone needing services.”
“Haley and Amanda were great daycare hosts for our dog Jager! We booked a VERY last minute daycare with them and they were exceptional. Pickup and drop off were seamless, there was active communication throughout the day and photos of Jager playing with their dogs. 10/10 experience and I would absolutely book with her again. :)”
About: I have a lifetime of experience with pet care, which began with helping my mom run her in-home dog boarding business when I was growing up. The skills and experience that I've gained in that time enable me to provide the best possible care for your pet. I live with my girlfriend who is a veterinary technician with over 15 years of experience. Ours is a loving home, with a large, securely fenced yard. Our top priority is to keep your dog safe, feeling comfortable, and relaxed, just as they would be in their own home. I offer boarding, walks, in home visits, and more. I am comfortable giving meds, preparing special diets, and caring for puppies as well as seniors. I used to train and show dogs when I was younger, and can help get your puppy off on the right foot with house training. Dog sitting is my only job, and my flexible schedule revolves around that. I can be available at any reasonable time for pick-up and drop off appointments. I'm home almost all of the time to be with the dogs, only leaving to run brief errands when necessary. All dogs are cared for in my home. I have a large, securely fenced in back yard. During the day, dogs are free to be outside to play in the backyard as much as they wish. All dogs sleep in large crates or X-pens in our comfortable dog room at night, or when we are not home. We have a young cavalier who would be happy to have new friends to play with. For safety, I separate dogs for feeding and if we're out of the house, although it's rare that no one is home. Guests need to like other dogs and people.
“Kiara is AMAZING!! I wish I could move her to LA with me. The best dog sitter I’ve had on rover and I use rover very often. As a helicopter dog mom, I would absolutely recommend Kiara to everyone! It was the best experience! Thank you Kiara!”
“Ricardo was so great with our dog! Took him out for a walk in all kinds of weather, and he came home happy and tired. Great communication and updates - we are hoping to work with him again soon. Thanks Ricardo!”
About: I've raised two energetic puppies through adolescence and frequently provide dog-sitting services for friends in the area. I also have experience working as an enrichment specialist at a well-known doggy daycare in Rochester and volunteering as a foster for local rescues. I am experienced with anxious dogs and can adapt to your fur-baby's specific needs. I'm trained in basic human and canine CPR, and I'm skilled at recognizing early signs of reactive behavior in animals. While I'm not perfect, I'm highly attentive. Since I’m home most of the time, I’ll ensure your pet stays healthy, happy, and safe! We are an adventure duo -- you can catch us at the beach playing fetch in the water, hiking, or just taking long strolls along the canal! On days where the weather is rainy, we still get 3 walks a day (morning, noon, evening) with thorough wipe downs after! Meal times are interwoven with short training sessions. I have dedicated several rooms in my house to doggy activity areas -- agility equipment, floor mats, etc (see photos). Grooming is done very regularly. My pup has environmental allergies so we also do a water rinse daily when we return from our adventures. When your baby stays with me, they will receive the same treatment (if they are comfortable getting brushed). He is my entire life and I couldn’t be happier! I have included photos of my home (and the excessive amount of dog toys we own) in my profile. Several of the rooms in my house are dedicated to doggy activities/enrichment and I also have a fenced in yard. I have also made sure that my set up allows me to separate dogs from each other if they ever get over stimulated -- I have enough rooms where each dog can be in their own room. I also have a doggy door so most days when the weather is not atrocious the dogs can relieve themselves/play as they please. Also my sun room is dedicated to dog care so if need be I can gate off/separate pooches that get too worked up (or just need privacy eating). I do have two crates — one for super small dogs and the other for dogs up to 35 lbs. My dog is crate trained but prefers free range so I have dog beds in every single room. Dogs are welcome on furniture but please make sure they have been recently bathed (within a few days before) if you are boarding as we keep our home extremely clean (the carpets get washed every month and vacuum and swiffering are done daily). We are probably not a good fit if your dog does not get along with other dogs, because my dog is still young and very energetic. If your dog does not like to play but does not react aggressively to other dogs attempting to initiate play, Momo would be fine as he does eventually give up if the other dog does not engage him at all. When we schedule a meet and greet, you can expect to meet us outside the front yard for a couple block long walk together before going to the backyard to let the pooches sniff each other out. Since Momo is a chow-mix, he is protective by nature and does not like it if other fur-babies he does not know well try to jump on his mom so I will likely only greet your baby after I put him back in the house.
“Alex and Bayern were both amazing hosts. We were in town for a wedding and didn’t want to leave Ziggy by himself. They took really great care of Ziggy and made him (and us) feel at home. We would highly recommend them and we’ll always return to them whenever we’re back in town. Thank you being such amazing hosts and taking care of Ziggy!”
“Rachel provided kind, attentive and friendly care to my girl Lucy. She provided photos and updates on Lucy and how her day was going. I feel that my girl is in great hands and that I trust Rachel is giving Lucy all the love and attention she needs!”
About: I have taken care of pets for my entire life! I also have experience in senior care, like administrating medications and other accommodations. I am currently in my undergrad for medical illustration and I am taking pre-vet classes. You won’t find someone as loving and caring to your pets as I am. I am currently on summer vacation, so I am super flexible and available to devote 100% of my attention to your pet for any length of time. I pay lots of attention to detail, and am great at following your directions. I have a roomy apartment, and live with two other animal lovers. Right outside my apartment is lots of yard space for walks and playtime! I will spend most of my time caring for your pet engaging with them and loving them!
“Omgosh what a great experience! Short notice meet and greet and then next day stay. Such obvious dog lovers and a welcoming home. Jackson’s big big and fills up a room and they let him. This was a situation where we needed help in a pinch but we will definitely be booking again. This was such a great first time Rover experience - thank you!!”
“Fiona had her first day at Garrisons doggy daycare and she came back tired and happy! My pup is very nervous of new things at first and Garrison took time to let Fiona warm up and get comfortable instead of just throwing her into the mix of things which can be overwhelming. I received updates from garrison and pictures and videos. We will definitely be a repeat client! Thanks so much Garrison!”
About: I grew up in a home with more than 15 animals, including chickens, dogs, cats, turtles, pigs, quail, bunnies, fish, and birds! (Currently, I have 2 cats.) I’m a college student, but I spend some of my time at my parents’ house during breaks, so I’m always around animals. Even at college, my roommate has two kittens—they’re so adorable! I truly enjoy giving animals attention because, just like us, they love care and affection. I treat animals like family and always make sure they feel safe and loved. I’m definitely a cat person, but I love all animals in their own unique ways! I’ve been pet sitting dogs of all sizes—from small to large—since 2020. My older sister is also a sitter with great reviews on Rover, and she sometimes refers clients to me. I also help her out with her bookings when needed. I’m always happy to help with walking, drop-ins, daycare, overnight stays, and more! I’m a college student who spends time at my parents’ house during breaks, so I’m always around animals. I’ll be in town from May 12 to June 10 2026!!! I have a big house with plenty of space for pets to hang out, plus a fenced yard for safe outdoor play. There’s also a dog park just 5 minutes away from my home! I’ll make sure your dog feels happy, loved, and well cared for.
About: I grew up on farms in the south, so I've been around animals my whole life. I moved to Rochester specifically because of how dog friendly it is. I think dogs deserve to be treated like family because they are our family! I work from home taking care of pets is my main job. If i could fill every hour of the week with animals, I would! I give every dog the time and attention they deserve. I have a fenced in back yard and a friendly dog of my own to keep yours company. I send pictures throughout the day to let you know how your pup is doing!
About: I am a dog lover I have a strong passion to care for pets and a nurturing aura. I have ability to adapt to any dog's mood for example sick dogs who need quiet time and love. For dogs who are active and playful will enjoy playin and running around with a energetic individual as myself. I have also delivered 4 liters of puppies. Your pet will love to interact or cuddle with me anytime of day. I also make delicious treat for the sweet and an all around pet pleaser. Making sure all needs are met for your pet is my main goal I strive to accomplish on a daily basis. Your pet will be well taken care (360 pampered care) of as if they where part of my family.

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for friends and family for over 10 years, and I absolutely love giving pets unforgettable experiences while you’re away. I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own, ensuring they feel loved and well cared for. I am very active and love taking walks with all dogs. After losing my own dog years ago, pet sitting has become a meaningful way to fill that void and share the love I have for animals. I’m currently working full-time in a school from 8-3pm. During the week I am available after 3pm for drop in visits and/or walks. On weekends I am available for drop ins and/or walks morning, afternoon and evenings. During the summer I am a nanny, however have a flexible schedule to let pets out throughout the day! I live in a safe apartment complex with a fenced in area for dogs and well as several walking trails to take your pets on long walks.
“David is an absolutely phenomenal dog sitter! He took amazing care of my boyfriend and I’s two huskies, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. My boyfriend especially gets so so so anxious about anybody watching them, and for him to be at peace 24/7 knowing David was there should say a lot. He was incredibly responsive and professional throughout the entire process. The numerous photos he sent gave me so much relief and reassurance, knowing my boys were in good hands and having a blast. I highly recommend David to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter! His wife was also extremely sweet and didn’t mind going on walks with our crazy boys and made the cutest art of them.”

About: In highschool I was very popular in my neighborhood from doing there dog nails, to dog sitting, over night stays, and even medications. Even back in high school I had a part time and school and still made sure the fur babies were taken care of. To this day I still dog sit for my neighbor. I also worked at a doggy daycare for about 6 months then i moved, I learned so much while I was there in that short period of time from learning to gain respect and how to control a group of 15+ dogs . And was in a animal science program in highschool with a mentorship at a clinic, then tried to go to college for my vet tech degree but too expensive(still paying that off). I also do have a very energetic German shepherd who I train every day she knows pretty much everything(sit, lay down, roll over,paw, other paw,high five, spin, heel, center, look, leave it, back up, and wait). I also dog sat for my boyfriend's coworker who had an older pointer who had a seziure not only did I comfort the dog but I called owner asap then vet, I then called off of work. Just because it's not my animal doesn't mean I will love them any less. But the take away from all that is I have a lot of experience in the animal department. I'm currently working part time and have a lot of free time on my hands and love being around animals . I only work wensday-saturday the other days I'm free. But as you can see with my profile I do have my own fur baby but my boyfriend never works nights or weekends so she won't be alone. For the pets at clients housing not only will I respond to you text asap even if I'm busy, I will also ask for guide lines and try to keep your dog on the schedule you have them on consistency is key, especially when a change like you leaving happens. I also am a big over thinker so before I let the dog out if you have a yard I will always make sure the gates are close and secure and make sure there's nothing laying out that would harm them. When I dog sit I imagine as if it's my own dog.
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life, and have been a pet sitter since I was 10 years old. All of my friends parents as a child as well as neighbors and relatives have all asked me time and time again to care for their pets in their home so they can relax while. Pets are my life. I currently have 2 dogs of my own and love walking them, playing with them and entertaining them. I will make your pets feel like they are part of my family, not only feeding and walking them but loving them while you are away. I look forward to play dates with your dogs and you can look forward to any updates you need while you are away. Pet care is continuous for us, day and night! We play multiple times a day, my husky mix loves playing soccer! I have games for my dogs, and they love the puzzles. I am currently doing pet care, and a few other small jobs to see where it goes. I am going to have good availability for a while! I have a fully fenced yard and 2 happy dogs, one is a 1 year old husky mix girl, fixed who would love a playmate, and the other is a 6 year old girl, fixed shepherd sized mix who likes to watch the playing more then participate in it.
About: I have had pets since I was a kid. I had dogs, cats, birds, fish, lizards, Guinea pigs. I currently have a husky now. I have a big heart for animals. I will help take care of any dog/cat. I am available after 3pm weekdays due to work and all day on weekends. If I can’t come for whatever reason, such my son being sick or an appointment, my boyfriend is able too. My dog is crate trained and he goes on walks daily. I will be able to take your dog out on walks and let them run in the backyard, if you have a fenced in yard. I will feed them and play with them and keep them stimulated.
About: I enjoyed taking care of other pets, I can’t have my own pet as I travel once a month I take care of my daughters 4 cats and 2 dogs often, and my friends 2 deaf dogs quite often I work at RIT, prefer to take care of pets near RIT , off Bailey Rd/Lehigh/East River area All my life, I always have dog and/or cat until 4 years ago. I miss having dog and cat. Taking care of other people s dog and/or cat gives me that joy! I have took care of various kind of dogs pit bull, lab, jack Russell , beagles, etc I am a very flexible person, cancellations will not be a problem & I am also a very reliable person. 😊 I take them for walk in the morning, afternoon, and after dinner. I also take them to backyard, to let them run! I do play with them. I like to make them feel at home while they are here I have no pets, have full fence! If i take your dog out, i will use leach to take them for walk. I like to make your dog feel safe and comfortable!
“Karibian was a joy to have walk my dog Lani. She was professional, kind, knowledgeable and engaged in great conversation. Lani simple adores her. I had recently fallen and fractured my hip so I needed someone to walk my dog. She was very attentive to Lani, played with her and gave her plenty of loving. She also kept me company and was so kind in assisting me a few times, although she didn't have to. I will definitely contact Karibian again for any future pet needs. I highly recommend.”

“Both Kimberly and Chris were very easy to make arrangements with, and their two happy dogs are a great reference! I had peace of mind leaving Murphy there, and the photos Kimberly sent of the dogs hanging out were great. They are nice people that love animals and I think Murphy had a great time with them. They were also really accommodating in terms of working with our plans/needs, which was so helpful. ”
“Anthony and Jayson were great watching over my super-hyper, slightly anxious Enzo! They provided me with amazing communication including pictures, and text messages letting me how well Enzo was settling in. They were also sitting for other furry friends and was very communicative in letting me know how Enzo was interacting with the other dogs and the adjustments made if necessary. Will absolutely be back whenever the next trip arises.”

“Had a great experience with Patrick. We had an unplanned trip for family reasons and had to find a sitter for Whiskey (1yo unfixed cav) a day before leaving. Patrick was very accommodating with this last minute booking and extending Whiskey's stay for another night. Whiskey had an awesome time playing with Moose. We got updates with pictures and videos. We're definitely going to book again for other trips”

She was very accommodating with the drop off and pick up time, and then during the stay she provided frequent photos and text updates. Overall, really great dog sitter who I would highly recommend to others!”
“For a first experience using the service....We were extremely pleased. Jacque was a good listener to learn about Rosie at a meet and greet. He then followed through with everything he said. We will certainly use Jacque again in the future. We are happy with the service and extremely happy with this caregiver in particular. EXCELLENT is the best way we can describe our experience.”
