About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life—from my childhood golden retriever, to my first mini poodle in college, and now my French bulldog puppy. Having a Frenchie has taught me how to care for dogs with sensitive stomachs, skin allergies, and special needs. I cook fresh, balanced meals with real protein and veggies for every meal, and I treat every pup like my own—gentle, patient, and a little spoiled. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or home-cooked meals, I make sure each dog feels safe, loved, and completely at home. I’m an MBA student at Cornell and have classes about three times a week from Monday to Thursday from 9am to 1pm. My boyfriend is home during the day until I return in the afternoon, so there’s always someone available to care for and walk the pups. We’re both huge dog lovers and spend most weekends at home since I usually have assignments to work on — which means plenty of time for cuddles, walks, and playtime with your furry family member. Your pup’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I have a French bulldog with sensitive skin and allergies, so I’m extremely careful about hygiene, food, and playtime routines. I also have a bit of OCD when it comes to cleaning — my home is spotless, sanitized daily, and always pet-safe. Every pup has their own cozy, comfortable space to relax, and I can easily follow any feeding or medication instructions. Whether your dog needs fresh meals, extra attention, or a calm environment, they’ll be cared for with the same love and detail I give my own.

About: I have worked with dogs and cats in General practice vet clinics and ER vet clinics for over three years. I also have experience volunteering at animal shelters and dog sitting/cat sitting. My schedule is very flexible and I am available most days and times for your pet! I am even able to care for pets on weekends, early mornings and evenings. I have a fenced in yard and no animals in the house. My own pets were crate trained and I am capable of keeping up with feeding schedules, walking schedules, and any medical needs your pet may have such as providing medication.

“I wish there were an option to leave more than five stars, because Georgia and her dog Wilma went so above and beyond. I had to find a last minute sitter over the holiday weekend, which, without Georgia's responsiveness and flexibility, would have been next to impossible. When I dropped my dog off, I could tell immediately that she was going to have an amazing time. Georgia sent lots of updates while I was away, which was much appreciated. Normally when I pick up my dog after a couple of days away, she's overjoyed to go back home, but this time, she actually seemed bummed to be leaving her new bff Wilma!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life from puppies to rescues! I've also been a grooming salon manager in Ithaca for 9 years. I've cared for many different breeds, ages, temperaments, and quirks all dogs have and I love them all the same. I have two dogs of my own Luke and Yoda. Luke is a 6 year old lab mix around 35 lbs. He is very loving and playful. Yoda is a 5 year old miniature fox terrier mix who has unlimited energy and is the sweetest snuggler. I am home all day with my baby and two dogs of my own so I can give the same care to some extra dogs! I treat every dog as if they are my own. I have lots of extra blankets to make sure they have there own space (i do recommend to bring some of there stuff like blankets, beds, and toys to make them more comfortable) and have extra room to separate them if they need to be alone. I will always make sure they are comfortable, happy, loved, and safe!

“As a first-time cat owner, I was so nervous about leaving town and finding someone to take care of my cat Hamnet when I was away. All my anxieties immediately disappeared upon first meeting Karla. Karla is a trip essential for any pet owners looking for a sitter who goes the extra mile. Her professionalism, communication, and active listening are all notable virtues. She took the time to really understand Hamnet and his demeanor, and factor that into his care. She took note of his favorite toys and made sure he got plenty of play time with them! I trusted her to keep a vigilant eye for anything aberrant, too — she noticed when Hamnet had gotten ahold of an item or two! She also very carefully administered medication and was dutiful in checking litter and water supply. She was also proactive and anticipatory — even confirming where cleaning products were nearby in case of cat sickness. She even took the time to capture Hamnet’s essence in photos to keep my homesickness for Hamnet at bay. Hiring someone to watch over your loved pet can feel like a big choice to make, and Karla is one of the best out there!”

About: For the past 10 years, I've cared for my own pets as well as friends' dogs, gaining hands-on experience across a wide range of needs. I'm comfortable with senior dogs, administering medication, and managing high-energy puppies, along with dogs of every size. I treat every pet with the same patience and attention I'd give my own! Hi! My name is Elena. I am an undergraduate student at SUNY Cortland studying environmental geoscience. I am currently finalizing my fall schedule and once it’s done, I will update my calendar :) I have both a dog and a cat of my own, so I'm comfortable with both species' needs and routines. When caring for clients' pets, I always follow their specific instructions including feeding times, leash habits, crate routines, medications, and any other house rules. Safety and consistency for the pet always come first! :)

Jenna got to see the cuddle bug side of our kitten (which is a rare sight even for us), and our shy lady warmed up after only a day or two (even asking for belly rubs)!

About: *Now available for work starting August 2026! Hello there, I'm Rowan! New to Rover, not to animal care- I'm an artist and animator who takes care of animals on the side. I grew up with a flurry of different pets when I was younger which later led me to attain a lot of experience with all types of critters. Previously I studied animal science and also have experience working at a dog daycare/boarding facility in the past. I work with cats, rodents, and other small animals including fish and reptiles! Animal care comes naturally to me and those who know me have commented on my patience and perception to behavior and social signals from all different types of creatures. I am quick to answer texts and questions and have a flexible schedule. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I'm working part-time and freelance at the moment, so I have ample time in the week to tend to clients. Look to my current listed schedule for up-to-date details. Cats: I can feed, give medication, and play with them if they're amiable to it. For safety reasons I will not let any cat outside unless you have a trusted, closed in "catio" or the like. Caged small animals: I can feed (legal live food is fine), give medication, clean up enclosures (no deep cleans), and take them out of the cage to play safely. Pets' needs will vary wildly depending on the type of pet you have, so we will work together to figure out what your pet will need while you're away.

About: I work shiftwork in a hospital and dogsit on my days off due to my love of dogs (and to fulfill the urge of getting a second dog!). Our home includes myself, my husband, and our friendly female bernese mountain dog Berkeley. No kids or other pets. We are comfortable with dogs of all breeds and activity levels. We only host one dog at a time so your dog will get all the attention. There is a fenced yard in a calm/quiet neighborhood. For multiple night boarding, would prefer arranging a meeting before booking to ensure it is a mutual good fit. Feel free to reach out for any additional details. Our schedules revolve around our dog Berkeley so your dog will get just as much personalized attention. My husband and I only host dogs when I am off of work/there are few other plans so your dog will rarely be left unattended Our home is spacious and there is a fenced yard so plenty of room for your dog and our dog Berkeley. You are welcome to provide a crate but we don't require dogs to be crated at our home.

“Susan kept in touch with me on my dog's first day care try. My dog did not get along with the other dog, so she kept them separated until I could get there to pick my dog up. Susan was very patient with him and kept him company. The problem was my dog and I will contact her again for a solo stay.”

About: I've had dogs my entire life from puppies to rescues! I've also been a grooming salon manager in Ithaca for 9 years. I've cared for many different breeds, ages, temperaments, and quirks all dogs have and I love them all the same. I have two dogs of my own Luke and Yoda. Luke is a 6 year old lab mix around 35 lbs. He is very loving and playful. Yoda is a 5 year old miniature fox terrier mix who has unlimited energy and is the sweetest snuggler. I am home all day with my baby and two dogs of my own so I can give the same care to some extra dogs! I treat every dog as if they are my own. I have lots of extra blankets to make sure they have there own space (i do recommend to bring some of there stuff like blankets, beds, and toys to make them more comfortable) and have extra room to separate them if they need to be alone. I will always make sure they are comfortable, happy, loved, and safe!

“Ashley and Brian took extra special care of Stella...who has never attended daycare. Their dogs were welcoming and they kept notes on her day and sent me an update on how she was doing within an hour of drop off. We couldn't be happier with how they took care of her and will be leaving her there again soon, as we are preparing Stella for a longer term stay while we vacation in September. We love that Ashley and Brian have a large fenced in back yard. We love that they make Stella feel like part of their family.”

“I cannot overstate what a lifesaver Jennifer was on our vacation. We had an air BNB that allowed dogs, but not unattended and were visiting friends with a cat who turned out to be dog phobic. We booked Jennifer the day before we left and she was so welcoming and flexible with pick up and drop off times and with her extensive kennel hours. My dog loved her own special vacation; with puppy playtime and hiking in the woods. She came home relaxed and super tired! The true marker of her own good review, was how happy she was to go back the next day! Thanks, Jennifer :)”

And I do not put them in cages or leave them alone.

About: Hello! Growing up my family always had dogs and my favorite thing to do is brush them. I’ve been dog sitting consistently since high school. I have experience with large reactive dogs, so whether you have an angel or a problem child Ive got plenty of love and patience for them:) I have one kitty at home and no dogs. I tried walking the cat but she’s determined to stay indoors so here I am! I’m happily self employed! That means my schedule can be whatever it needs to be. No time is off limits. But I do have a special place in my heart for morning walks because they start my day on the right foot. I will follow your instructions to a T! Nobody knows your pet better than you do, so to keep them happy and safe I will defer to your instructions.

About: Hello to all possible clients! :-) My name is Kat, I am a caregiver professionally and a caregiver at heart but when I’m home I love to spend time with our family dogs. Since I was a kid I’ve adored dogs till utter obsession. I’ve helped train and care for dogs within my family for many years and have experience in feeding, medications, walks, training, dogs that range in size, dogs with anxiety, senior dogs & pups…etc. I’d love to do some drop-in visits and help when I can. Can’t wait to hear back! I’ve recently given birth and before I fully submerge myself back into working again I figured I could use a schedule with a little more flexibility and found this to be a perfect fit. When caring for your pup I will provide whatever energy is needed for your pup to thrive, whether that mean love, patience, tender care or space and just the necessities. I am happy to meet your pups needs where they are at or provide more help, support or keeping up with training if needed. Consistency is key!

“Ashley was absolutely wonderful in watching my two pups! She is obviously incredibly knowledgeable about all sorts of dog care and was great at watching both a giant hyperactive puppy and my older more mellow girl who needs regular medications. She sent so many updates and pictures during their stay so I always felt informed and up to date on their day! Ashley was so respectful of my wishes with them and made sure to check with me about treats, bath products, and extra activities. She took my one dog running with her regularly, which he loves, and gave my lazy cuddle bug lots of snuggles and couch time! The dogs clearly got so much love from her entire family and I felt so assured that they were in capable and loving hands! Ashley asked questions when she had them and followed my feeding and medication instructions to a T! She was also so sensitive about making sure both dogs felt comfortable and making sure they were in a safe and secure environment on their terms! Both my pups were so happy looking in all their pics and were excited on pick up-I could tell they had a great time! I’m no stranger to dog sitters and doggie daycare and honestly, Ashley is one of the best I’ve found so far and I can’t wait for my pack to spend time with Ashley and her wonderful family again! She’s got a new regular!”

When I arrived to pick him up, I could see how well they had connected with him through their warmth and kindness. We are very grateful to them and already looking forward to his next visit!”

“Susan is incredible and I'm so glad to have found someone my very anxious dog can feel comfortable with when I'm gone. Susan kept me updated (with pictures when Jade would cooperate) regularly and was kind and patient, even when Jade decided to turn up the dramatics. Would absolutely recommend for anyone with an anxious dog who needs a little extra love and care!”

“Our bulldog Leia had an amazing time! She played a ton in the huge, fenced-in yard and seemed to be very well cared for and received a lot of personal attention. We received a lot of nice updates with photos and videos. She was very tired when she got home which is great! We hope to have Leia stay with Robert and Eileen again when we travel in the future.”

“We had a wonderful experience working with Charlene. Her knowledge of dog training and experience put us at ease immediately, and she took affectionate and attentive care of our dog. It's obvious she really enjoys spending time with dogs and knows how to make them feel comfortable and well cared for. We would absolutely recommend her and hope to have her sit for us again!”

“I wish there were an option to leave more than five stars, because Georgia and her dog Wilma went so above and beyond. I had to find a last minute sitter over the holiday weekend, which, without Georgia's responsiveness and flexibility, would have been next to impossible. When I dropped my dog off, I could tell immediately that she was going to have an amazing time. Georgia sent lots of updates while I was away, which was much appreciated. Normally when I pick up my dog after a couple of days away, she's overjoyed to go back home, but this time, she actually seemed bummed to be leaving her new bff Wilma!”

About: I can't wait to meet your doggies! We’ve rescued a few bulldogs in the past and I am comfortable taking care of dogs with special needs but love all kinds. We currently have 2 senior fur babies, and a young Chihuahua. I have pet sit for friends and family and am excited to make new furry friends. I work a 9-5 remote job, so I have lots of flexibility and my evenings and weekends are free. I love taking my doggies for walks. If your dog loves car rides, like mine does I am happy to bring them on adventures. I have lots of toys to play with! I am happy to host dogs in my home or go to them. Any dogs that stay with me can be kept with my dogs or separated.
