Personalized care for your dog or cat - Leicester
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Leicester
“Jamie and Brian provide exceptional care. My dog truly gets pampered and is so excited to see them when I drop her off. I don’t have to worry about her for a second while I’m gone.”
“Remi is an anxious dog, but after this boarding experience, I noticed a big difference. He was much calmer when I picked him up, and it did not take him days to de stress like usual. When we arrived, Kimberly greeted us outside with her dog, who is extremely friendly and calm. Even though Remi was on a leash, he handled the interaction well, which honestly surprised me. Throughout Remi’s stay, Kimberly sent pictures and regular updates. She played fetch with him, which is one of his favorite activities (other than eating). By the time he came home, he was happily exhausted. We are so glad we found Kimberly and highly recommend her. She is someone we will definitely continue to return to.”
“Haley and her fur babies were amazing hosts to my little blind guy Luca. Always sending pictures and updates. Thank you so much for the peace of mind I got while having him stay with you.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Garrison and her family very kindly agreed to watch Luna at the last minute, and it was a wonderful experience. Garrison made it so easy and sent us pictures of Luna loving the backyard. When she got home she was absolutely exhausted from having such a good time!”
“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.”
“Luna absolutely loved her stay with Kate (she told me so). She went on plenty of walks and had tons of play time. She swam, experienced fireworks for the first and made new friends. I received daily updates from her (including adorable photos). She really handle my high energy child with grace and I will definitely be booking again!”
“Alex and Bethany did a fabulous job keeping Walter entertained and keeping me in the loop with frequent pictures/updates along the way! Will 100% be using them again!”
“Lourdes is AWESOME!!! Teddy stayed with her for 3 nights and I think he wants to go back. lol. When I went to drop Teddy off, she gave me a tour of her house to let me know what kind of environment/setup she has. She also let me meet some of her family members who are also very sweet. While Teddy was staying with her, I got 22 pictures and multiple videos through out the stay to let me know Teddy is doing just fine. She also sent me texts throughout the stay just to let me know how Teddy is doing. During the night, she even put a little sweater on Teddy to make sure he doesn’t get cold. My family and I were going to Canada and I was super nervous because I was going so far away, but Lourdes definitely made me at ease and my family enjoyed every single pictures and vidoes she sent us. She is going to be on the top of my very short list of people and places that I can trust Teddy with.”
“I had an amazing experience with Rick! He took exceptional care of my dog and treated him like his own. He was reliable, communicated regularly with updates and photos, and made sure all his needs were met.”
“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!”
“Our dog Comet came home after a week and was in the best overall condition ever. He just went about normally and was just in great shape. No anxiety or tiredness. When we picked him up he was part of the household and just showed he was totally comfortable in the house.”
“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”
“You can tell that Amy and her family really love to have dogs there to visit. Bentley is well cared for and spoiled with love and attention. He even gets walked even though they have a fenced-in back yard where he gets to play. I got pictures and feedback daily on how he was doing. Amy is always first on my list of people to call when Bentley needs a place to stay.”

About: I've worked with pets of every shape and size and I've owned a dog or cat for the majority of my life. Juno, my last dog, I cared for so much that I brought him from Australia back to America when I moved back home after studying abroad. I've owned virtually every type of pet from hamster to lizard over my life and I know how to react to difficult situations. I've even saved Juno's life on more than one occassion (Australia has poisonous blowfish) so I have a wide range of experience. I work another part time job which I have time to fit my love of pet care in between during most days given my flexible schedule. I will ensure the environment is perfectly secure and safe for the pet with no possible exits for them to escape. I would make sure they're within my sight 100% of the time and be sure to give them as much attention as they want.

About: Always had pets (cats, dogs, rodents) growing up, one year of horse barn experience and dog training apprenticehood at Summit K9 in Rochester NY! My dog training consisted of... - consistent feedback from two licensed trainers - leash walking skills - reactivity reduction (barking at other dogs, the door, people) - managing doggy daycare including half a day of one on one training and half a day of social groups - creating groups, managing consistent training across multiple employees - assessing the training and social level of any particular dog - crating skills - taking crate sensitive/aggressive dogs in and out of crates - walking people sensitive/stranger aggressive dogs - teaching cue recognition (place, sit, down, yes, no) - caring for boarding dog's needs - walking multiple dogs at once, training dogs to walk together With cats I am comfortable and knowledgeable about... - providing appropriate play - basic training using food incentive and luring - picking up a cat appropriately by supporting the spine and reducing tension on the scruff - responding to stomach issues and puke - reading body language for anxiety and aggression With horses I am familiar and comfortable with all daily care including stable cleaning and fetching skiddish horses from pasture. As for my pets.. My first cat was a stray found at 4 weeks that I learned how to teach to groom and care for himself. I also know how to manage ear mites, or any other kind of skin or tick care. Our dog was a breeder who also has needed a lot of specialized care. I am most experienced with rodents (have owned over 8 rats, 4 guinea pigs and a rabbit)! I've never personally owned a bird or a lizard, but have cared for friends and I always commit to accurate research. If you have any questions or worries regarding my experience and competency I would love to hear from you! I am very available right now, and I intend to make pet care my biggest priority. I am happy to discuss all kinds of scheduling. I love going above and beyond for my pets. Our cats are indoor and outdoor but I am always checking on them and keep a consistent feeding schedule to prevent overeating (they have sensitive stomachs). Our dog is also very needy, as she has some anxiety from her last owner so she needs to always be accompanied while outside and will not do certain things alone. I keep my rats in my room where they get frequent engagement with the whole family, and I enjoy making homemade puzzles and toys for them. Overall, all of our animals live active, healthy lives!
About: Megan- lover of all things with a beating heart; avid nature enthusiast. Have cared for pets personally and privately since I was 10. Clients relied on me for potty breaks and basic daily care. I have cat-sit as well as horse-sit. Making sure the pets are happy at all times and being engaged in their surroundings is a goal for me. Have trained several of my own dogs - I have 3 - and several dogs in the family & friends. I understand levels of obedience and train ability differ from animal to animal and have the patience to work among your animals needs. Have worked at doggie daycare and a dog kennel extensively in my career. Have administered plenty of dog medications. Bryanna - kind hearted, nurturing individual. Have been enjoying the company of my dogs and others’ pets since about 2010. Have dog-sat & cared for some wild pets, even chickens and snakes! Brought a tiny blind kitten back to life. Had roughly 2 years of basic grooming experience. Nail trimming/dremel, ear cleaning, brushing, bathing. Went on to work at a dog kennel, relocated to Buffalo, and worked at another dog kennel (the same one as Megan!) and learned even more about body language and behavior. Looking forward to meeting the sweet pets! We usually take our 3 dogs out for socialization purposes at least twice a day including walking, playing, training, public stimulation. We have a very open schedule and can almost always assist whenever a client needs. We live closely to multiple public parks, Lake Ontario, Canalside, etc. Our 3 dogs enjoy everywhere we have taken them and we hope that your pets will enjoy these places too. We do offer pet sitting at your home, we would request that we have a way to enter the home and if any products are specific to YOUR PET that they are provided for our use. (Example prescription food, medications, enrichment toys) The house sitting details will be thoroughly worked through with the homeowner beforehand.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Leicester
“I was doing a 10 mile hike at Letchworth which is too long for my puppy to hike. Emma lives very close to the hiking trailhead so dropping off my dog was very convenient. Emma and her pup were wonderful hosts. My dog seemed very happy to be there for doggy daycare. Great value for the price. I will definitely book again.”
“Murphy had his first stay with Garrison today as a 14 week old puppy!! Thank you for the peace of mind!t He was cared for and played the whole time. I got pictures and updates from Garrison which i loved! We will definitely be booking again. Thank you!”
“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 always had dogs and cats as a part of my family and I also spent a lot of time cat sitting for friends and family. My family fostered puppies and dogs for several years through a local organization! I am in school studying animal behavior and have done an internship at a cat shelter giving enrichment and behavior training to the particularly shy cats. I work part time, only 3-5 hours a day at a shop a few minutes from my house. Other than work and quick errands from time to time I’m home full time otherwise! I have a huge backyard that is not fenced in, however your pet would have full on leash supervised access to the yard! I have an older cat who gets along very well with other animals.
“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 had dogs of every shape, size and disposition for 50 years. I have been fostering rescue dogs for 20 years. I don’t think I will ever not have a dog in my life. I am retired so home pretty much 24/7. I have 2 dogs of my own so am available anytime. I enjoy gardening so prefer to be home. I have a fenced yard with doggie door. I walk the dogs beside giving them free rein in house and yard. I have numerous doggie beds for their comfort along with furniture to sleep on!
“Calli was great with our dog, we dropped her off for just 6 or so hours and Calli was warm & welcoming to our slightly anxious dog. Would definitely recommend her service and will use again in the future if we ever are in the area again!”
About: I have worked years with saving animals and have always been a big dog lover. Looking to do what I love most . I have 2 children that I recently took in and have a new puppy who loves other dogs. She is a sweet girl. I would love to have more dogs but really cant afford to . So this way I can help others with their pets and my girl can have some playmates. I live in a house on 3 acres. I have kennel , electric fence and a chain for dogs to go out on. Whatever is best for your dogs. I am flexible on size of dogs and have experience with many dog personalities. I do own 2 cats but can keep them away from dogs. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to play with the animals. I am home most days a week and if I do work it's a couple of hours 4 times a month I have a fenced in area and large yard for your fur babies to play.Also, have plenty of room inside for dogs to play .
“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!”
About: I am a retired teacher who has had pets my whole life. My own children are grown and I am out of the classroom and thrive on taking care of beloved pets - my own and others. I am a hiker and enjoy having canine company when I walk. I will treat your family members with safe, loving kindness. I am involved with rescue work. Both of my dogs are rescues. My Cocker Spaniel was rescued after spending 6 years as a breeder in a puppy mill. I look at each dog I encounter as an individual with their own unique needs based on their temperament and background. This means that I am flexible when dealing with pups. I love cats but don't have one of my own because one of my dogs is reactive to them. I take care of friends' cats in their own homes. I am retired and have a very flexible schedule. I have the freedom to arrange my schedule according to the needs of the dogs in my home. I have a fenced in tard and two friendly dogs to keep your dog comfortable. My dogs are never left unattended even in the fenced in yard. I am always out with them when they are out. I am an experienced foster of dogs recently released from puppy mills. These dogs are flight risks so safety is always my first concern with any dog in my care. I use the two leash protocol when walking dogs. I will only board dogs when i do not have a foster dog.
“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 ❤️”
“We were traveling in from Ohio and needed someone to watch over our 2 year old Bernedoodle 'Bernie' for the day as we celebrated my grand daughters graduation/ birthday. We traveled 45 mins to use Abigail because of her reviews and experience. Abigail was wonderful with communication, answering questions, providing pictures and updates during the entire process. It makes you a little nervous leaving your fur baby with a stranger but Rover helps to make everything easier with their program. We give Abigail an A+ in all areas and will definitely use her again if we are in the area again. Michael, Teresa and Bernie from Ohio”
“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!”
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.
“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 am a total dog lover! I will take your dog/puppy on a walk, stay with them for a few hours or even just pop in your home to feed them or give any needed medications. If an overnight is needed in your home or mine, I'm your girl! I can ensure you that I will treat your home as if it were my own. Here's a little about me. I have had a dog in my household since I can even remember! I live in the Batavia area with my 3.5 year old beagle. With my past experience with furbabies, I am confident that your dog/puppy and I will get along perfectly! I can't wait to meet you guys. I currently work part-time. I am typically only gone up to 5 hours on work days 2-3 days a week. Crate trained or free in the house your pup will be comfortable if I'm away. My neighborhood is super dog friendly with neighborhood sidewalks and parks! Your pet may just meet another friend along their walks or find a comfy spot to snooze on the couch :)
About: I cared for my dog for 11 years until she passed, and now I wish to make other dogs happy and safe. Will take care of your dog as if it were my own. I would be available as needed basis. I do have a friend who would help during the day if I have to do contract work. I would give them the attention they deserve to make them not feel lonely. Try to keep their mind active from thinking they were abandoned.
“We needed a sitter and Jamie was there. She was informative and respectful. We received status reports and pictures throughout the day. It was good to know our Jack was good hands! I definitely recommend.”
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!

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Leicester
“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.”
“Vicki was a great! This is the first time we've used Rover and Vicki did not disappoint. She responded within 5 mins of my request and was so accommodating. She popped over to our vacation rental and spent a good 30 minutes meeting us and our dog. She was super responsible and took great care of our pup. I would HIGHLY recommend Vicki! She was AWESOME!”
About: Experience & What Sets Me Apart I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing calm companionship. I also have basic dog training experience, including reinforcing simple commands, leash manners, and positive behavior using positive reinforcement. What sets me apart is my calm, patient, and responsible approach. I understand that every pet is different — some need active play, while others need a quiet and stress-free environment. I take the time to build trust and help dogs feel confident and comfortable. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions, pay close attention to routines and behavior, and provide regular updates for peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I always make time for animals and enjoy spending quality time with them. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets receive attention, care, and companionship without rushing. I provide a safe, calm, and positive environment for pets, whether in my home or in the client’s home. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and pay close attention to each pet’s needs, behavior, and comfort. I make sure all interactions are safe, positive, and beneficial. I respect routines, keep pets supervised, and focus on building trust through calm communication and gentle care.

“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.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was little and have worked to broaden my knowledge and skills with several books as part of Cesar Millan’s Red Rover program. This was to help fix behavioral issues between all our pups throughout the years and learn more about them. I have been told I'm very empathic and have an eye for their needs in the moment. I'm never done learning about our furry friends and believe it's a lifelong practice. My routine varies on the season. During the cold months my schedule is wide open and I am happy and able to provide care as needed for you. Due to the nature of my current seasonal work schedule, the warm months are more limited, but I am happy to work with you on a schedule that makes sense for all of us. Depending on the season, the majority of our time will be spent in my house, but my backyard is fenced and the front yard is open. I also have a crate if your dog feels safe there too.
About: I have experience walking, playing and taking care of our 15 year old black lab Jake! He sadly passed away. He lived a long happy life! I'm very active and have lots of energy!

About: I have had dogs my whole life. I adopted my first dog as an adult about 6 years ago, and have since raised three dogs and multiple cats. I am comfortable with large dogs (I own a 90 lbs black lab) as well as administering medications and management of high need dogs. I work from home, so while I am caring for your pets I have the flexibility to take them out whenever they need and make sure they are enriched and cared for. I have a fairly flexible work from home job, so while pet sitting I will be with your pets for the majority of the time. My own dogs are all high needs. I am experienced with reactive and anxious dogs, and have worked through significant behavioral concerns within my own pack. Let me know what your pets need to feel safe and comfortable!

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 8. My neighbors, family, and friends have all relied on me to walk, bathe, feed, and play with their pets. I also have a dog of my own who I am responsible for taking care of. Every pet I have taken care of has received the best care possible. I am currently a full-time student. I only take 3 in-person classes and the rest are online so I have lots of free time and a very flexible schedule. It all depends on your pet's needs. No pet is the same so I will follow your pet's schedule. I will also take lots of pictures if you would like them of your happy pet doing their daily activies.
About: I’ve been pet-sitting on my own since I was about 15 and have had pets at my home since I was a child. I’ve always loved dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds! My summers always consist of staying at family and friends houses with their pets and my name has traveled through town as the pet sitter to go to if someone is going away. I’m very attentive and caring and will treat your pets as though they were my own. I work full-time, Monday-Friday, so I will be available to care for your pets before and after work (during will depend on location) and on weekends at any time. I had a family dog—a border collie, and I have 2 cats of my own. They get all the love and treats that you could imagine. I can adapt to whatever personality your pet may have — if they like space, that’s great, if they like all the attention in the world, then that’s what they’ll get!
“Miranda is excellent! I needed someone to take my dog out on short notice a couple days before, and she exceeded my expectations! Not only was she available and contacted me back quickly, but she followed all directions and even reached out to me during their walk to check in and make sure everything was okay. Miranda is trustworthy, honest, reliable, and you can tell she loves animals and what she does. Highly recommend!”
About: I have owned animals my entire life from cats, lizards to dogs and horses. I worked at a kennel in my high school years taking care of dogs and assisting the owner in grooming. Going on from that I worked in a dog daycare alongside a fear free trainer whilst training my own dog, Lacey who is now 7, doing agility, obedience and other extensive training. Upon graduating I was given the opportunity to train and work alongside a groomer in her own shop, while I did my time with her we also attended groom expo where I took numerous classes including fear free grooming, control and handling, and creative grooming. Due to back issues I stepped away from the grooming scene and into ridding horses. I wonder my own horse for several years, I took a job opportunity with Letchworth Farms caring for both world class eventing horses as well as our trail horses. My time was ended there after a few years due to me becoming a mother to two beautiful kids and from time to time I have worked alongside a local cat shelter assisting in rescues and fostering and also helping foster and rescue dogs from time to time. I also have experience with caring for senior dogs with special needs. I have a very flexible working schedule to be able to accommodate your needs and your dogs at any time! I also am currently enrolled in Animal behavior and Canine training, a knowledgeable care giver is a great one! I am here for all your pet needs! I have one friendly cat who is vaccinated, fixed and is acclimated with dogs extremely well. I have a 7 year old fixed female who is good with other dogs and would rather spend her days lounging and relaxing.

“Jamie and Brian provide exceptional care. My dog truly gets pampered and is so excited to see them when I drop her off. I don’t have to worry about her for a second while I’m gone.”
“Remi is an anxious dog, but after this boarding experience, I noticed a big difference. He was much calmer when I picked him up, and it did not take him days to de stress like usual. When we arrived, Kimberly greeted us outside with her dog, who is extremely friendly and calm. Even though Remi was on a leash, he handled the interaction well, which honestly surprised me. Throughout Remi’s stay, Kimberly sent pictures and regular updates. She played fetch with him, which is one of his favorite activities (other than eating). By the time he came home, he was happily exhausted. We are so glad we found Kimberly and highly recommend her. She is someone we will definitely continue to return to.”

We're definitely going to book again for other trips”
