“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.”
“Jesse did a great job with our puppies. I can tell our boys are very happy and excited when they see him. Jesse has a very comfortable place for the dogs to stay and relax while we are gone and he treats them nicely.”
“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.”
About: I have had a dog my entire life. Many in different shapes and sizes. My last fur baby was my baby before babies and I have experience with obedience training and good citizen training. I am missing the pitter patter of paws in my home and would love to spoil your sweetie! I am currently home full time. I have three children that are 5 and under. I would love to spoil your baby in my caring home. I have a large yard and two story house with a fenced in gated deck for fresh air. I am very active and love walks and hikes!
“This was Geoffrey’s first time staying with Gigi. I appreciated all the questions she asked about him and the time she took to get to know him before his stay. Geoffrey had a great time and even learned how to use a doggy door! Gigi also did some light training with him and gave me tips on how to get him to stop jumping on people when he wants to say hello. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Gigi watch Geoffrey again for me. Thanks Gigi!”
“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”
“We have 2 rescues, both about 2 years old who have never been boarded. Garrison was a fantastic person to care for them their first time away. She was very patient as they're both nervous around new dogs. We couldn't be happier with the way she handled them.”
“Lourdes was wonderful!! Our dog stayed with her for two weeks and she did everything for him to feel loved, cared and comfortable while we were away from him. Lourdes sent us many photos e videos everyday showing our dog playing outside, walking in the backyard and eating. Our dog couldn’t be in better hands than Lourdes. I totally recommend!!”
“Alex and his wife delivered conscientious care to my 55 lb dog. They were both very involved, engaged, and responsive. Their property has a nice backyard with a high fence, which is perfect for a dog that likes to run around. I’m planning to re-book my dog with them for a longer weekend this summer, and would definitely recommend them to friends and family.”
“Kate will be forever treasured for talking marigold I’m such short notice and being so wonderful to her! She took such good care of our pup and is such a lovely girl. I couldn’t have had a better experience and we will always Hope Kate will be available when we take a trip!!!”
“another great stay! this is our second time and it was so nice to know where banner was going and who he would be with! Banner was excited and ran right away when he got there.”
“Kathleen and Brian were fantastic!! They provided daily updates on how my dog was doing. They really care about the dogs they are watching and it is very evident. If I need my dog to be watched again I will gladly be requesting their services.”
“Abigail watched our two dogs last minute and it was such a huge relief knowing they were staying with such a sweet family! Our boys can be anxious staying with new people, but Abigail sat with them and made sure they were comfortable. Her house is such a perfect setup for dogs. We would definitely use Abigail again when we’re in the area.”
“I’m above and beyond satisfied with Kaitlyn, She showed my little guy much love during his stay. Kaitlyn was consistent with providing text and video, I was able to enjoy my time away knowing my little guy was in safe hands and environment. Thanks Kaitlyn !!! You’re the best!!!!!”
About: When I was in middle school, my science teacher went to the Philippines for the whole summer. I took care of her mices, dogs, guinea pigs and more. Growing up in Iowa, I have been around many animals including dogs. Also I have had friends who traveled to Europe and they had to leave their poodles, black labs and many more and trusted their dogs in my care at their home for a month or two weeks if needed when I lived in Washington state before moving to Honeoye Falls. When I dog sat, I made sure I gave medicine as instructed to the dogs as needed. I played with them, took them hiking, the beach, cuddled on the couch and learned about what they liked and don’t like and what makes them happy. I made sure that their owners were happy as well. When I was asked to come and dog sit again, the dogs would be waiting at the window waiting for my arrival. These dogs were sure happy to see me when I came back to dog sit them! I have plenty of time to play with your pups 🐶I would be available for boarding on the weekends and week days after 4pm. I would be happy to give lots of love and attention/play to your fur babies! I have a fenced yard and have two fur babies who love to socialize. I also love to spoil your dogs too! I work from home twice a week and can pet sit on the weekends as well! As for dog sitting in the client’s home I would treat your place with respect, love and care. Anything you need I will make sure that your pets receive it. I will also communicate and send pictures!

“Kim was wonderful with our cat, she was able to get him to come out from under our bed on several occasions, and he now loves to see her! She is very detailed in her daily rover card description, and sends lots of adorable pictures 😻 We are so unbelievably happy with our experience, and highly recommend her for anyone with a shy cat!”
“Kayligh is our go-to sitter and is totally awesome! She’s flexible, super trustworthy and clearly loves the animals she cares for! She is well worth the money of hiring a professional animal sitter - you don’t have to worry at all when you’ve hired her!”
“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!”
About: I am recently relocating to Avon, NY and am excited to take your pupper for a walk around town and get to know the area! Happy to do a home visit and play with fur babies of all ages! I work swing schedule caring for my grandma so I will have plenty of time to come help get some energy out or provide cuddles and ear scratches. I promise to treat your baby just as if it were my own! We have a cat and a dog and yes they sleep in the bed lol
“Richard cared for our 16 year old cat that has chronic health issues. Our cat takes several medications twice a day and eats a prescription diet. He did a great job, was very responsive, responsible and would contact me if he had a question. We felt like we left our cat and home in good hands. I will hire Richard again in the future when we need someone to look after our cat.”
“Karibian was a lifesaver for our family! We had somewhat limited notice to needing our girls cared for and she stepped in and helped us. The girls were so happy to see her each visit, even though they had never met. All the photos of smiles and snuggles made this mommas heart happy. I highly recommend her service and will definitely rebook with her again!”
“Ayah left us detailed messages about her drop in visits with our cat, and made sure that she had as much fun and love as possible while we were away. I would definitely recommend Ayah!!”
“Our cats can be pretty skittish with new people, but Luis was so patient and kind with them. He took the time to earn their trust instead of rushing them, and it really showed. By the final day, Kiki had completely warmed up to him and was loving on him! We really appreciated the updates and felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We’d absolutely book with him again.”
“We recently had the pleasure of having Gigi and Nate take care of our dog, and I couldn't be happier with their service! They treated my dog as if he were their own, providing not just the basics but going above and beyond to ensure he was happy and well-cared for. They also kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which gave me great peace of mind. My dog came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend Gigi to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring pet sitters. They're simply the best!”
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!

“Christine was wonderful with my little poodle. My guy Marley loved her little boy and from the videos he was kind and had fun with Marley without being too rough for a little dog. I was nervous because marley had a heart murmur when he was younger and he gets overheated but he was fine with her. Thankyou Christine for taking care of my family member.”
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!
“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’”
“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!”
“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.
“She came to my house to meet my dog and answered my questions before the doggie day care service I was coordinating. Everyone went smoothly the day of, and Emily sent me pics and videos of my puppy playing with her dogs. He was well taken care of and I could tell he enjoyed himself. She was always very prompt in hey messaging with me. I would use Emily again in the future.”
“Abigail did a great job with Segal, our 2 years old poodle. Sent a lot of pictures and kept us posted. We would definitely recommend Abigail for your pet care. See you again Abigail!”
“We were passing through Rochester and really needed a very trustworthy sitter for our highly separation anxious three legged Jack. So when we found Alex and Bethany and Jack trotted off with them with no anxiety, we knew we'd found the right match. These people clearly have the magic touch and the dedication to take care of any creature with any kind of special need. So I would recommend them a million times over. Honestly feeling kind of bummed we dont live in Rochester and therefore cant call on them more often.”
“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!”
“Marie did a great job with my dog with reactive tendencies. She is friendly, easy to work with, and has a great deal of knowledge of dog behavior which is helpful in addition to pet-sitting. I highly recommend Marie for dog care services.”
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!
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.
“We were visiting the Rochester area and needed someone to watch our labs for a couple hours - Kerrie was so flexible, responsive, and overall wonderful with our two very active and enthusiastic labs. If we’re ever in the area again, I know who we’ll be contacting if we need someone to watch our pups!”
“Amazing! Carla’s positive energy and chill personality was a hit with my girl. She was super content and tired after each day. I will definitely be returning!”
About: I have guinea pigs, cats, dogs, and chickens. I have also had a bearded dragon and rabbits. I am very used to caring for many types of animals and love them all. Have experience with all different ages and many different needs for each pet. They’re our family ! I was a teacher for 12 years in elementary school. After our 3rd child was born i decided to stay home to take care of our children and our pets full time. I am very flexible with my schedule and our pets love visitors - animals and humans !! I have a fully fenced in backyard and three very friendly dogs and three very friendly children :) We are all animal lovers. I am home during the days and when school starts, I am the only one home so it’s nice and quiet. We live in a great area for dog walks and are close to many parks for hikes too.
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.
“Forrest and Leo were safe and well cared for at Amy’s. They were soo excited to go back!! That was most important to me. I also appreciated the great communication and flexibility with drop off and pick up.”

“Not only does Alana take great care of our dog, she also takes great care of our house. She stayed late one day this week to alert us that our water heater was leaking — helping us avoid major water damage.”
“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!!”
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.
“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!”
“Joey was fantastic with my dog! He made sure that she was well-fed, walked, and had plenty of fun every time he visited her. He constantly kept me up to date with report cards and pictures. I would happily ask Joey to watch my dog again the next time I am out of town!”
“Kevin did a fantastic job taking care of Tito while I was at work. im glad to have found a caring reliable person to walk my boy on workdays so I dont have to worry about how hes doing at home as much 💜”
“Aracely let out and fed my puppy midday for 2 months until the end of my school year. She took great care of my little guy. There were two times that she canceled morning of and, with that late notice, I was not able to leave work or get anyone else to take him out. I understand life happens but my little guy did go to the bathroom in his crate both of those days. If I could give 4 1/2 stars, I would!”

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.
About: I've been taking care of all kinds of not only dogs but animals in general since I was 5. Cats, rabbits, chinchillas, ferrets, fish, iguanas, all kinds of birds, snakes, etc. I've been a pet store manager for 8 years, providing quality care to these animals and finding them good homes. I've been a veterinarian assistant for a year, and am in school to become a technician. I am available most of the time! I am dedicated to helping you find the time you need while not having to worry about your fur babies! If house sitting is required, I can delegate more time to that (and your pets!). I will care for your babies as if they are my own! I have plenty of experience with medicating and comfort care as well! Leave me a list, or have me do my thing, your babies are in the right hands!
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.

“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.”
“Jesse did a great job with our puppies. I can tell our boys are very happy and excited when they see him. Jesse has a very comfortable place for the dogs to stay and relax while we are gone and he treats them nicely.”
About: I have had a dog my entire life. Many in different shapes and sizes. My last fur baby was my baby before babies and I have experience with obedience training and good citizen training. I am missing the pitter patter of paws in my home and would love to spoil your sweetie! I am currently home full time. I have three children that are 5 and under. I would love to spoil your baby in my caring home. I have a large yard and two story house with a fenced in gated deck for fresh air. I am very active and love walks and hikes!
“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”
“We have 2 rescues, both about 2 years old who have never been boarded. Garrison was a fantastic person to care for them their first time away. She was very patient as they're both nervous around new dogs. We couldn't be happier with the way she handled them.”
“Alex and his wife delivered conscientious care to my 55 lb dog. They were both very involved, engaged, and responsive. Their property has a nice backyard with a high fence, which is perfect for a dog that likes to run around. I’m planning to re-book my dog with them for a longer weekend this summer, and would definitely recommend them to friends and family.”
“Kate will be forever treasured for talking marigold I’m such short notice and being so wonderful to her! She took such good care of our pup and is such a lovely girl. I couldn’t have had a better experience and we will always Hope Kate will be available when we take a trip!!!”
“Kathleen and Brian were fantastic!! They provided daily updates on how my dog was doing. They really care about the dogs they are watching and it is very evident. If I need my dog to be watched again I will gladly be requesting their services.”
“Abigail watched our two dogs last minute and it was such a huge relief knowing they were staying with such a sweet family! Our boys can be anxious staying with new people, but Abigail sat with them and made sure they were comfortable. Her house is such a perfect setup for dogs. We would definitely use Abigail again when we’re in the area.”
“I’m above and beyond satisfied with Kaitlyn, She showed my little guy much love during his stay. Kaitlyn was consistent with providing text and video, I was able to enjoy my time away knowing my little guy was in safe hands and environment. Thanks Kaitlyn !!! You’re the best!!!!!”
About: When I was in middle school, my science teacher went to the Philippines for the whole summer. I took care of her mices, dogs, guinea pigs and more. Growing up in Iowa, I have been around many animals including dogs. Also I have had friends who traveled to Europe and they had to leave their poodles, black labs and many more and trusted their dogs in my care at their home for a month or two weeks if needed when I lived in Washington state before moving to Honeoye Falls. When I dog sat, I made sure I gave medicine as instructed to the dogs as needed. I played with them, took them hiking, the beach, cuddled on the couch and learned about what they liked and don’t like and what makes them happy. I made sure that their owners were happy as well. When I was asked to come and dog sit again, the dogs would be waiting at the window waiting for my arrival. These dogs were sure happy to see me when I came back to dog sit them! I have plenty of time to play with your pups 🐶I would be available for boarding on the weekends and week days after 4pm. I would be happy to give lots of love and attention/play to your fur babies! I have a fenced yard and have two fur babies who love to socialize. I also love to spoil your dogs too! I work from home twice a week and can pet sit on the weekends as well! As for dog sitting in the client’s home I would treat your place with respect, love and care. Anything you need I will make sure that your pets receive it. I will also communicate and send pictures!
“I never used Rover before and was hesitant to do so. However, I found Tetiana and saw she had all positive reviews and repeat bookings, so I chose her to watch my pug for a week, and I am so glad I did!! Tetiana responded right away when I booked. While she was watching my pug, she provided daily updates with lots of photos, which was so fun for my family to receive. I knew my dog was being well cared for and getting lots of attention. The superb response time from the moment I booked until when I picked my dog up was excellent, plus with all the updates and photos, there’s nothing more I could have asked for with a dog sitter. I will definitely book with Tetiana again!”
“Abigail was absolutely amazing taking care of my cat. She sent pictures everyday along with updates, and it was clear she showered him with all the attention he wanted! I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker for my cat and I highly recommend her.”
“Rebecca was simply wonderful. She was incredible with communication and sent us tons of pictures of our baby while we were away. She’s a very loving caregiver, and we would use her again in a heartbeat.”
“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”
