“Jacque was wonderful watching my old girl when we went to my daughters wedding. He put my mind at ease with updates and pictures. Could not say enough about how much I appreciate Jacque and his wife Emily.”
“Fitzy boy had so much fun and I got so many pictures! Thank you for the best time, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for fitz as I was nervous leaving him for the first time!”
“Marie was wonderful with our dog, Champ. He’s a very nervous dog and it takes a lot for him to feel comfortable with new people, but Marie was patient, kind, and took great care of him. We trust her completely and feel confident leaving Champ in her care. In fact, we already have her scheduled to watch him again! We would highly recommend Marie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”

“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!”
“Lesley was great with Layah and took the time to make her comfortable. Would ten out of ten recommend. She was very responsive and sent updates.”

“Kasia went above and beyond caring for our dog Penny. When she wouldn’t eat, Kasia thoughtfully prepared rice and egg to make sure she was happy and healthy. She was so attentive, gentle, and loving, our pup was truly in the best hands. Her boyfriend was also wonderful and patient, and I received beautiful daily photos that gave me so much peace of mind.”
“Amazing! Our first time using Rover and Amber set the bar! From the start, she made us feel comfortable leaving our puppy in her care. Very knowledgeable in puppy’s and their quirks. She is very communicative - from questions before booking, through booking changes, and while our pup was in her care - kept me posted on how he was doing and even provided pictures! Something that really helps a first time puppy mom! She also kept our puppy active which was great after a long trip - he slept the entire night and even slept in late!! We will for sure use her again and will be sharing her with our other dog friends! I highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Fantastic sitter! She was incredibly attentive and caring. Our pets had a wonderful time with her, and she kept us updated with daily photos. We highly recommend her and give her a full 5 stars!”
“Can we leave six stars? 10 stars? Alex and Bethany made my dog feel welcomed and loved from the first meeting. She acted as if she had known them her whole life, with big Staffie smiles and wiggles. Lots of space to run and play both inside and out. Daily updates with photos Genuine concern for our dog both physically and emotionally. We are so happy with the care provided that we are looking for excuses to leave our dog with them again 😁”

Cat caregivers near you - Byron
“Spencer did a great job with a drop-in visit for my two cats, Zu Zu and Mr. T. He was prompt, thorough, and made sure everything was taken care of while I was away. I appreciated the attention to detail and the care he showed for my cats. I’d definitely recommend Spencer to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”
“Kathryn is a very nice sitter! She follows the instructions carefully and being really nice to my cats. She will contact me in time or asking for more she could help. Most importantly, she has the cutest window stickers!”
“Amber did a great job taking care of our 2 cats. She was friendly, organized and on-schedule each day. Our guys really appreciate having human interaction each day. She is very experienced with animals from cats and dogs to farm animals. Thanks Amber!”
“Kevin kept an eye on my cats while I went away for Christmas. He was awesome! He was attentive to the cats when he came over, cleaned the litter boxes and gave them cat food. He even took the time to warm up and play with them for a while when he came over. I’ll definitely be using Kevin again anytime I need a drop in visit!”
“Hannah was patient and overall wonderful with my two kitties. I hope that anytime we are away in the future, that she will be available. We couldn’t be happier with her! She obviously has a way with meeting special needs pets and I came home to two healthy happy cats.”
“Ayah was a blessing!! This was our first time needing a cat sitter and I was a little nervous. Mr. Winston can be a little shy and usually hides when new people come over. But Ayah was able to get him out of hiding and he actually started to greet her when she would come over. She treated him so good while we were gone and I didn't worry at all. Ayah sent very thorough and thoughtful reports with pictures after each visit. I am very satisfied with the level of care she gave Mr. Winston and he seemed to enjoy their visits as well. I will definitely request Ayah again in the future.”
“Allison was absolutely wonderful with my pup! She’s reliable, caring, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. From our first message, she was professional and easy to communicate with—always providing updates and photos so I knew my dog was happy and safe. I came home to a calm, well-cared-for pup and a tidy house. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such capable hands. I would 100% recommend Allison to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
“Kate was absolutely fantastic. Our cat Millie got sick right before we were leaving for vacation, and Kate jumped right in on short notice. She went above and beyond, giving daily pills and other meds based on how Millie was doing. She was always responsive and kept us updated. We will absolutely use Kate again and highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve met more cats than I care to count and there’s no companion quite like them. I was a part of caring for the cat in my profile picture, he was older than all of my siblings and was very much family to me for most of my life. He and others such as my current cat, coco, have shown me what it means to care for another living being. I’m confident I can care for most any cats and would love to do so.
“Very attentive! She did a great job with our kitty and made an effort to play every day (even when she didn't want to bc she's a cat, of course). She left us pictures every day, which we really liked, too! Will hire again for any future needs we have, and I would recommend her to any family or friend!”

About: Walked and fed my neighbors dog since I was 13, until I moved out of state. Then got my first dog Maia, who is now 7. She had endometria and has arthritis and I’ve been there for her through sickness and health! Also got my second dog Peanut who is the clumsiest bullmastiff ever! He is 4 now.

About: I started walking my next door neighbor’s Boston Terrier when I was around 10. She knew I was an animal lover, and even let me experiment with some training with her pup. This led to me getting into agility training and just general dog training, which I have started to pick back up again. I am known as the family dog sitter, as my family has a combination of Pit Bulls, Bernedoodles, and hunting breeds, so I’ve worked with dogs of all shapes and sizes and stubbornness! Aside from dogs, I grew up volunteering at shelters where I adopted my own cat when I was 15, and eventually even landed a job as a zookeeper! As far as my own pets go, I currently keep it to my cat, fish and my wonderful Bearded Dragon, Albus. From my own pets, work experience, and love of training, I really have worked with everything from lizards to rodents to dogs to elephants! One consistency throughout my experience is my love for animals, and my passion to improve the quality of their life! Specific skills: - Puppy/Adult dog training - Hoofstock care and training (goats, horses, exotics) - Reptile care I currently work from home, so I have the availability to work from wherever I need to. This also gives me the option to walk/train during my breaks. I have weekend availability as needed as well. I am able to stay over at a pet owner’s home if needed, however I prefer to host pets in my own home whenever possible. I currently have a 1 year old mixed breed who absolutely LOVES having the company! As always, your pet’s safety is my number one concern. I am trained in identifying and understanding animal behavior and will not put your animal in a position where they do not feel safe. I am also a huge advocate for leash laws and ADA regulations protecting service dogs, so these will always be respected and enforced in my care. I am a huge advocate for animal enrichment, working as a zookeeper in the past taught me how important mental stimulation is for an animal, and how when paired with proper exercise can mitigate behavioral issues in pets. This is something I would love to bring to the table for my clients!
“Oz and Lily love going to Alex & Bethany house. It’s a good feeling knowing that your dogs are well taking care of . Oz and Lily love going to their house Home away from home ❤️”
“Gigi was great with Marshall! Their home is very welcoming and prepared to keep the dogs happy and safe. Great back yard too! Marshall enjoyed playing with their two King Charles’”
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.
“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. :)”
“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 had and cared for my own pets since I was a little girl, including dogs, cats, rabbits, fish and reptiles. I also worked for Petco for a short while in my college years, so I have experience caring for small animals (mice, guinea pigs, ferrets, etc). 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! We try to stick to a predictable schedule with them daily, which includes 2 meals a day, 2 play times, at least 1 walk, and a training session with high-incentive treats. We are more than willing to come to your furry friend for play dates and walks as well!
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.
“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!”
“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!!”
About: I will provide you with updates throughout the process, fostering a genuine connection with the pets, helping them feel comfortable, and ensuring a positive experience for them. Considering my availability as a stay-at-home mother with three school-aged children, I am well-suited to devote my daytime hours to the care of your pets. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs for your fur baby to play with and I can easily crate your dog if needed.
About: Hi, my name is Lindsay and I’m an animal lover through and through. I grew up in a cat‑loving family with the most adorable tabby and Persian cats. One of our Persians, Sweetie, was especially close to me. She passed away a few years ago, and losing her truly broke my heart—she was with me for so long and gave me so many wonderful memories. I also spend a lot of time with my family’s dogs—a brown Labrador, a German Shorthaired Pointer, and a pair of Boston Terriers—and I always make sure to play with them whenever we’re together. Back in high school, my mom, sister, and I volunteered at our local humane society. We cleaned kennels and litter boxes, played with the animals, and gave them the affection and company they needed. I’ve also cared for many of my family’s and friends’ cats and dogs over the years, and there has never been a dull moment. Pets bring so much joy. A little about me: I love hiking, doodling, drinking coffee, playing mobile games, reading, and traveling. I enjoy spending time with my family, good friends, and—of course—fur babies. I’m flexible, easygoing, and always happy to hang out with pets who need love and attention. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies and give them all the care and affection they deserve. I work part‑time from home, which gives me lots of flexibility to care for your fur babies. I offer weekend boarding and weekday availability after my work hours. My yard is fully fenced and secure, giving your fur baby a safe place to play. My neighborhood has lots of sidewalks, so your pet will enjoy calm walks right outside my home.
“Quinn took AMAZING care of Jose!! He loved being outside in her yard and playing with the other dogs. I received photos/videos every hour as well as updates on how he was adapting. I will definitely be taking him there again! Thanks Quinn!! 😊”
“Andriana was great with Monte while we went to the PGA tournament this weekend. He had a great time playing outside and went on a walk. Thanks again, we will definitely be using her again if we are back in Rochester.”
About: Murphy and I are a tag team! Please only reach out if your pets are good with other dogs. I’ve always been the girl who is obsessed with dogs. I grew up with dogs and I was the one who took care of them, and that love for caring and training has only grown. I’m the type of person who needs a lot of “outside time” so my soul dog Murphy and I spend a good amount of time playing in the courtyard and going on multiple walks a day; I truly don’t know who’s happier. Currently, I have a very open schedule and it’s just Murphy and I at home all day. Some evenings I babysit for my family out in Spencerport, but kid friendly dogs are welcome to come with me and there is also a large yard (not fenced in, but there is a 30 ft leash set up). I have a fenced in grass courtyard where the dogs can play, and my apartment is very open and there’s lots of room for dogs to play inside. My dog Murphy does not need to be crated when left alone, but I have a small cage in case anyone who visits needs it. Murphy has more toys than I care to admit, so your pups will have lots to play with.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Byron
“Kathryn has been amazing!! Always on time and very professional. She is great with Trooper, and gives me daily updates after his walks. She is also very responsive to her messages. I highly suggest!!”

“She is absolutely great with our dog. Only a half hour walk, but she took the time to get to know him, and make sure he had a comfortable first meeting. We'll always have her back to help with Ryu's care. Thank you.”
“Hannah is awesome and super sweet. It can be hard trusting a “stranger” with our puppy but I did not need to worry one bit. Hannah showed Alfie so much love and was so kind to me. She was prompt, was an excellent communicator and friendly to everyone she encountered with Alfie. I am so lucky to have found her.”
“Alison was great at communicating and she followed all of my directions while caring for my two dogs. I’ve never had anyone other than family take care of them before and Alison put me to ease! I would definitely recommend her.”
“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: Since I was thirteen, I have stayed home alone while my parents went to work, up to twelve hours on certain days. I have consistently been an owner of five or more dogs at a time, and I would always manage their meals, potty breaks, and everything in between. I am currently unemployed, so I have my entire days to spend taking care of your dog(s). I only keep my weekends to myself, but all day on weekdays are perfect. Whenever I have cared for my dogs, I always took a low-key, chill approach. As long as I know the dogs' tells for wanting to go to the bathroom, as well as general mealtimes, I usually sit with the dogs, give them pets and playtime, and they are generally happy with that.
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and I’m very familiar with their care and how they communicate. I’ve been around dogs for many years and I love to walk and play with them. We have one cat, a bearded dragon, and two frogs, so I can give exotic care as well. I currently work the evenings starting at 5pm, so I’m available any time before then. I am willing to travel a reasonable distance, and willing to work something out! I’ll come to your home and greet your pets before getting to work. Whether scooping litter, feeding, walking, or playing, I will have your pets health and safety in mind, and I can take pictures to document what I do.
About: I have worked in veterinary for 4 years and am now a dog groomer since 2025. I am canine and feline CPR and first aid certified and certified in fear free. I work a full time job but can definitely work walks in around my schedule. I cannot board any animals overnight because I do not have a crate. We have a large yard and lots of area to go for walks. There is a privacy fence in the backyard. There is one indoor/outdoor cat
About: I am a recent college graduate with a passion for animal care. Besides having two dogs of my own, I have dogsat for many friends and family members, with all different breeds of dogs. I am a huge animal lover and would love to meet your pet and take great care of them! I will send updates with photos because I know how it can be stressful being away from your pets/family! I currently work part-time, so have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am off on Tuesdays, and Fri/Sat/Sun I only work until 12pm, so still lots of free time on weekends.

About: Hello, I grew up with pets my whole life, and I understand how much it matters to have a reliable and kind person to care for pets when you are unable to.

She is very communicative - from questions before booking, through booking changes, and while our pup was in her care - kept me posted on how he was doing and even provided pictures! Something that really helps a first time puppy mom! She also kept our puppy active which was great after a long trip - he slept the entire night and even slept in late!! We will for sure use her again and will be sharing her with our other dog friends! I highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Can we leave six stars? 10 stars? Alex and Bethany made my dog feel welcomed and loved from the first meeting. She acted as if she had known them her whole life, with big Staffie smiles and wiggles. Lots of space to run and play both inside and out. Daily updates with photos Genuine concern for our dog both physically and emotionally. We are so happy with the care provided that we are looking for excuses to leave our dog with them again 😁”
“Tyler and Melissa were great! They were very responsive and sent me regular updates. My dog had a great time playing with their Luna! Would definitely use them again!”
“Because this was my first time using Rover to arrange care for Ezra, I was a little nervous about leaving Ezra. But I couldn’t be more pleased! Will not hesitate to leave Ezra with Rachel 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”
“Took excellent care of our dog. Was very accommodating with the time. Great outdoor space and very friendly well behaved dog also there. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
“Debra was very good and loving with my fur-boy, Finnegan. He really took to her, and was calm when I picked him up. He is looking forward to his next visit with Debra in September!”
“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!!”
“Garrison is such a sweet and caring person ! We have had our dogs stay with her a couple of times for weekends away and they always have an amazing time. She is great at giving updates and sending photos of them so we feel like we aren't missing anything. You can tell she really cares for them. We will be having our pups stay with her again !”
About: I’ve been walking dogs for a while now, and I’ve always had dogs of my own. I also have experience fostering. I have experience with all ages, sizes, and breeds. I currently work from home, so I have flexibility in when and how I can provide care. I’m available weekdays for drop ins and walks. I look forward to taking your dog on walks, and can transport them securely in my car if needed. Depending on the dog, a service I offer is jogs. I take my own pup, Flo, on runs all the time.
“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”
