“Lesley was phenomenal! She took River at the last minute and provided excellent care, including sending me multiple photos and videos each day so I could keep up with my pup. I was much less anxious about leaving her knowing she was in such great company. River seemed really relaxed, too, and Lesley was very knowledgeable, just taking everything in stride. Highly recommend this sitter.”
“Thomas was wonderful with our airedale terrier. He sent pictures and updates about their adventures. Our dog has food allergies and Thomas was able to make sure he did not come into contact with them. We will look forward to hiring him in the future.”

“This last booking with Eliot was our Jesse's third. We are just thrilled with the care that Jesse receives, plus the texts and pictures we receive when we are away. Jesse is ecstatic at drop-offs and in lively, good spirits when we return. Eliot has lots of experience caring for animals and he is very professional. I cannot say enough good things!”
“I can't recommend Anthony and Jayson highly enough! Corin had an absolute blast. He loved spending time in the yard and came home happy. What really stood out was how responsive the rover was throughout the stay; I never had to wonder how things were going. I would absolutely book again the next time I travel. Five stars without hesitation!”
“Beau had a great stay with Amy. I could tell that he felt right at home with Amy and her family. She was terrific with daily updates and pictures and took great care of Beau. We have already reserved her for the next time we are out of town!”
“David was everything we could ask for in a sitter, from initial contact all the way through to pick-up. We especially appreciate how communicative he was, quickly responding to our initial request, arranging a meet-and-greet, and then providing steady updates throughout Teddy's (9yo Pomeranian) stay. Upon meeting, David gave us the confidence that our small dog's safety and comfort was a priority, patiently listening to our lengthy and exhaustive introduction while Teddy made himself right at home. When we returned, Teddy settled right in and all of the pictures and videos during his stay were of a happy, contented creature in excellent hands. We look forward to future visits, and think Teddy will be just as glad to return!”
“Jamie and Brian were eager to answer any questions I had and get to know Bear during our meet and greet. Jamie sent frequent updates during his stay and followed all my care instructions. Bear is usually wary of men but he did great with Brian! We will definitely be back :)”
“My dog has never been happier besides me the pics I’ve seen made me feel so confident and comfortable with Rachel taking care of my baby boy he stayed active and she gave him the same level of care that I would have and khai her fur baby added the love to all the fun he had and in the pics she sent we will be seeing her again thanks for the love and care it is appreciated!!!”

“Baela did a great job taking care of my two cats! One of them is a little bit difficult and needed medication, and she took care of it no problem. My cats were happy when I got home, and everything was in order. Baela communicated very well before and during my trip. I would definitely recommend Baela and would use her again next time I go out of town.”
“We were lucky to have Brad as our cat sitter for the two weeks that we were traveling. He took excellent care of our fur baby, and promptly sent daily updates and photos. I would not hesitate to recommend Brad to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
About: I've almost always had cats in my life, I grew up with them and adopted my own as an adult. I have experience with kittens as well as seniors and in between. I also have experience leash training kittens. I will be obssesed with your cat even if they are hesitant about me. I've cat sit for kitties that are happy to see me and grumpy ones that want me to kick rocks. I respect their boundaries and love them all! I also have experience caring for other animals so lemme know if you need someone to watch your goat (or other unique pet)! 😁
“Daniel is really helpful and accommodating for my cat who generally dislikes most people. I’m grateful to know he’s checking in our her and making sure she gets her daily medication. Thanks, Daniel!!”
“Lavinia was an amazing sitter & very pleasant to work with! Our 3 cats got to spend a bit of Christmas with her & we are so so pleased with how the visit went! She was always timely in her responses which was so appreciated. She was even willing to be flexible on short notice & I’m so thankful for that! The photos she provided from her stay brought huge smiles to my partner & I as well! Highly recommend Lavinia as a sitter!”
“Gabriella is so sweet. We knew our cat Macy was in good hands and really appreciated all the pictures of Macy while we were out of town! I recommend hiring Gabriella and plan to ask her to care for Macy again”
“Paige is great! She always pays attention to how Blanch (our cat) responds to her—giving her space when she wants it and attention when she’s ready. Paige is always our first choice to care for Blanch when we’re away.”
“Highly recommend Alexandra. She totally followed through on all our instructions and she takes the best cat photos you’ve ever seen! Hope I can use her again.”
“Nicole was very responsive & provided detailed updates and photos of our pets! We were very happy to have her take care of them while we were gone. I would recommend Nicole for pet sitting.”
“I have worked with David twice, and he has been amazing both times. He is very communicative and takes excellent care of my cats. I highly recommend working with him. Thank you, David!”
“As usual, Rebecca went above and beyond during a lengthy stay with my cats. Her communication, flexibility, and care are top-notch and we are so lucky to have her checking in our boys while we are out of town.”
“Caroline is an excellent cat sitter who exceeded all expectations in this regard. She showed up promptly for each scheduled visit, ensuring all of my cat’s needs were met. She went above and beyond to ensure my cat felt loved, comfortable, and content in my two weeks’ absence, whether it was engaging him in playful activities, providing ample petting time, or simply sitting quietly by his side. I highly recommend Caroline to anyone seeking unparalleled care for their furry family members. If I have a chance, I will definitely book again in the future. Thank you!”
“Isabella was super sweet! We got to meet her in person and she was very communicative and took the most amazing pictures!! Definitely will be booking with her again”
“We had an absolutely fabulous first experience with Ona staying in our home and watching our kitty Mira while we were in Bermuda for two weeks. What a great communicator!! And she was so willing to do all kinds of extras that come with a large home and land—including putting out corn for our wildlife friends and making sure our gardens didn’t wilt in the unexpected heat wave. Our kitty absolutely adored her, and she wants us to go away again soon so that she can snuggle and play with Ona again :) Thank you for everything, Ona. It was a joy to have you watching over our home.”
“We are so happy we found Rico. Our cat gets so stressed out when we leave her overnight. Rico took such good care of her. She acted like we had just come back from the grocery store after being gone for four nights. She was so relaxed and happy! On top of that the house so clean one could not even tell anyone had been there! Thank you Rico for taking such exceptional care of our Maxine! Best pet sitter EVER !”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Homestead Heights
“They weee both so loving toward my little Loki. He got all the snuggles and attention he could ask for. I loved seeing the pictures they sent and just how happy they all were. It shows how much they care for the animals they watch.”
“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!”
“I really am so happy with the care my dog received here. She was happy and would have probably been happy to stay and play with these wonderful humans! It feels great to know that she is being loved a LOT! Highly recommend.”
“i’ve used Valerie in the past and I’m currently using her while I am at work. She’s very flexible with my changing work schedule. She sends daily photos and updates and is very patient and understanding with my young puppy. I feel very stress free when I bring my dog to her. I would highly recommend her to anyone!!”
About: I have over 4 years of dedicated pet care experience, looking after dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I treat every animal in my care with the same love, respect, and attention I would give my own, ensuring they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I’m currently working part time with flexible hours. Im available during weekdays and most weekends so i’m ready to care for your furry friends when needed! When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is maintaining their normal routine to minimize any stress. I double-check that all doors and gates are securely locked before letting dogs out, and I always keep them on a secure leash during walks. I am highly respectful of your property, strictly follow all house rules, and make sure hazards like human food or loose items are kept safely out of reach. You can count on receiving regular photo updates so you know everything is running smoothly and safely!
“Garrison is AWESOME! So nice, flexible and loving. Eddy really enjoyed his stay with her and her pups. After a meet and greet I took Eddy back for a day of fun and he could not wait to get out of the car and run to her. He came home a happy and tired dog. We will definitely use Garrison's "camp" again.”
About: 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.
“Our puppy seems to have had a very fun day. Thank you for caring for him! Everything went so smoothly, we appreciate your responsiveness and the ease of the entire experience!”
“Jamie has been sensational. While this is my first review of her, I wanted to wait for a number of visits before leaving a review. Pre-visit communication have always been positive and quite timely. Communication during visits(texts and photos) are just the right frequency, and always include appropriate pictures. I’d recommend Jamie with no hesitation to my family and friends, so if you’re one of them, I told you so. If you’re not one of them, she did doggie daycare for me on multiple occasions and has been a treat to deal with. On the last visit, my golden puppy was trying to drag me from the driveway to the front door. That should tell you something.”
“We are new to the area and didn't know anyone who could watch our dogs for the day while we moved from our rental into our new house, so using Rover was an obvious choice. We needed someone to pick up our two dogs early at the rental and drop them off late at the new house and Adriana agreed to both. Even when I contacted her to ask if she could keep them a little longer since the move wasn't complete, she agreed to do so without any additional fees. She didn't even complain when one of the dogs threw up in her car and defecated in her home. (Sorry about that!) I would definitely call on Adriana again if the need arises.”
About: Hello! Thank you for trusting me with your pet’s care and comfort. 🐾😊 I’m a licensed veterinary technician and professional dog trainer with a lifelong passion for animal care. With both medical and behavioral experience, I’m comfortable handling everything from shy or anxious pups to seniors and those with special needs. Your dog isn’t just being watched, they’re being truly understood and cared for. I conduct meet-and-greets in your home so your pup can feel comfortable in their own environment while we get to know each other. I’ve found this sets everyone up for success because, just like kids, dogs often behave better when their parents are away. Instead of overwhelming them with a new space and new dogs all at once, I take the first few days to carefully introduce them to my home and pack. This thoughtful approach creates a calmer, safer transition and helps prevent stress or conflict. Safety is always my top priority. I take pride in creating a structured, low-stress environment where every dog feels secure and respected. At this time, I primarily accept dogs 40 lbs and under. Larger dogs are welcome to inquire and may be accepted depending on temperament, ease of care, and compatibility with my household. I share my home with well-balanced dogs, one younger Border Collie, Hopper, a rescue chihuahua Skipper, a rescue Collie mix, Jake and my rescue Shiba Inu, Renji. 🐕 I also have some dog-savvy cats who are very accustomed to canine guests. 🐱 My home is designed with comfort in mind, whether your pup loves to play or prefers a quiet place to relax. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, cozy lounging areas, and easy access for senior dogs who may need to avoid stairs. To ensure the highest level of care and attention, I typically host one guest dog at a time. I’m happy to accommodate multiple dogs from the same family. As an added bonus, I can provide basic grooming services during your dog’s stay, including nail trims, ear cleaning, bathing, and anal gland expression if needed for an additional fee. Feel free to inquire. I look forward to your fur baby’s stay! Thank you and have a ✨ Pawsitive ✨ day! Kimberley G, LVT, CDT I work from home so daily pet care is easy and your pets are never left alone for more than a couple hours. When I do have to leave, I have cameras to help keep an eye on them and make sure they are safe as well. 👀 I care for guests the same way I care for my own pets. I appreciate how scary it can be leaving your fur baby in someone else’s hands, so I send pictures and updates as frequently as you’d like. Safety is my number one priority. I will always do my best to ensure a safe and enjoyable stay for your pup. My motto? “They’ll be relaxed, so you can relax.” 🐾☺️
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since childhood so am familiar and comfortable with walking, feeding, cleaning and taking care of animals. Our family loves dogs and since we don’t have one at the moment we’re enjoying spending time with the dogs we dog-sit for! I’m currently a stay at home Mom and home most of the week, so able to walk a dog easily or take it out to the bathroom as needed. I have a large fenced in yard for your dog to enjoy. I live in a suburban neighborhood easy to walk a dog in. I can crate your dog if required.
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.

“Alexandra helped us out last minute and took great care of our dogs, and even showed our cat some love too 😊 We will definitely be contacting her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone needing pet care.”
“Caroline was super accommodating with our young puppy's (and our) needs. She was up for us walking along with her, so our puppy could get feel more comfortable around her for the first meeting. Definitely will be requesting Caroline again for help with our puppy!”
“David is an absolutely phenomenal dog sitter! He took amazing care of my boyfriend and I’s two huskies, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. My boyfriend especially gets so so so anxious about anybody watching them, and for him to be at peace 24/7 knowing David was there should say a lot. He was incredibly responsive and professional throughout the entire process. The numerous photos he sent gave me so much relief and reassurance, knowing my boys were in good hands and having a blast. I highly recommend David to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter! His wife was also extremely sweet and didn’t mind going on walks with our crazy boys and made the cutest art of them.”
About: In highschool I was very popular in my neighborhood from doing there dog nails, to dog sitting, over night stays, and even medications. Even back in high school I had a part time and school and still made sure the fur babies were taken care of. To this day I still dog sit for my neighbor. I also worked at a doggy daycare for about 6 months then i moved, I learned so much while I was there in that short period of time from learning to gain respect and how to control a group of 15+ dogs . And was in a animal science program in highschool with a mentorship at a clinic, then tried to go to college for my vet tech degree but too expensive(still paying that off). I also do have a very energetic German shepherd who I train every day she knows pretty much everything(sit, lay down, roll over,paw, other paw,high five, spin, heel, center, look, leave it, back up, and wait). I also dog sat for my boyfriend's coworker who had an older pointer who had a seziure not only did I comfort the dog but I called owner asap then vet, I then called off of work. Just because it's not my animal doesn't mean I will love them any less. But the take away from all that is I have a lot of experience in the animal department. I'm currently working part time and have a lot of free time on my hands and love being around animals . I only work wensday-saturday the other days I'm free. But as you can see with my profile I do have my own fur baby but my boyfriend never works nights or weekends so she won't be alone. For the pets at clients housing not only will I respond to you text asap even if I'm busy, I will also ask for guide lines and try to keep your dog on the schedule you have them on consistency is key, especially when a change like you leaving happens. I also am a big over thinker so before I let the dog out if you have a yard I will always make sure the gates are close and secure and make sure there's nothing laying out that would harm them. When I dog sit I imagine as if it's my own dog.
About: With a lifelong passion for animals and extensive hands-on experience, I bring a unique depth of care to every pet I encounter. Since childhood, I've embraced the joys and responsibilities of pet care, walking my own dogs and extending my services to neighbors and friends. Over the years, I've nurtured a reputation for reliability, responsiveness, and clear communication. Whether it's a dog, cat, or rabbit, I approach each furry friend with unwavering dedication, treating them as if they were my own. Your animals’ well-being and happiness are my utmost priorities, ensuring peace of mind for you and endless pets for them. I’m currently working part time so my schedule is flexible, feel free to reach out with questions regarding my availability! I’d love to help out! Trust is the foundation of my pet care approach. Clients can rest assured knowing that I prioritize their pet's well-being above all else, adhering to their specific care instructions and providing updates throughout my stay. In terms of the environment, I create a nurturing atmosphere where pets feel comfortable and at ease, maintaining their routines and offering plenty of affection and companionship in the familiar surroundings of their own home.
About: I make time to care for dogs on my free time and love to make them feel special. I help busy hardworking owners feel relieved when they can work and know that their dog is in good hands. I am a student that is currently studying full time at my apartment and am available to schedule dog care. I am very organized and am able to set time for studying and pet care and play time. I can play with them and give them enrichment. I can pet them to soothe them. I can encourage drinking water to keep them healthy. I am very vocal when it comes to encouraging and letting pets know they are doing something well.
“I felt very comfortable leaving my precious boy with Lauren. Lauren was super easy to communicate with and she checked in with me after her walk with my dog. I would recommend Lauren when you need someone to watch you furbabies.”
About: I didn’t grow up with dogs of my own but all my friends had dogs and some of my family did, too. I’ve been around Great Danes to little chihuahuas. I do take care of my best friends two dogs when she is working her 12 hour shifts which includes letting them out to potty, feeding them, giving treats and of course all the rubs and lovings. I currently work part time at a doctors office so my afternoons and evenings are very open. Doing care in the morning before work is also not an issue. I do start work at 7am, but I am happy to stay the night or get there early before my shift. I unfortunately would not be able to offer services in my home unless it was a caged or tanked animal because I do have 4 cats currently. One of my cats is absolutely terrified of dogs.
“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!”
“Matthew was easy to communicate with and was good at handling Pepper, who can be strong and easily stimulated on walks. I definitely recommend him and plan on booking in the future.”

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!”
“Hollis was super friendly and amazing with our English bulldog Slim. Hollis sent us many pictures and kept us informed of Slim shenanigans. I definitely recommend Hollis to dog sit your fur babies. We will definitely use Hollis again. Thank you Hollis!”
