Personalized care for your dog or cat - Westernville

“Tracy is our go-to when we need someone to care for our dogs. She always pays attention to detail and keeps us in the loop on how our dogs are doing. We would recommend Tracy to anyone looking for a reliable person who is sweet to their animals! 🤍”

Alexis D.

“I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with Becky! From our first interaction, it was clear how genuinely caring, responsible, and attentive they were. She took the time to get to know our dog’s personality and little quirks, which immediately put us at ease. Throughout the stay, we received consistent updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins that made it so easy to relax knowing our pup was in such great hands. It honestly felt like our dog was on their own little vacation. What really stood out was the level of detail and effort. Becky and her daughter went above and beyond in every way. Whether it was sticking to her feeding and supplement schedules, making sure our dog got plenty of love and attention, extra attention to her needs (it was a change of seasons aka shedding time and they gave her lots of extra care and brushing to keep her comfortable!), it was all so appreciated. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pet, but I would 100% book Becky again without hesitation and recommend her to absolutely anyone. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, you’ve found the one!”

Katie B.

“Tawni was very kind and flexible as to our pick up and drop off time. Milo had a great time…she clearly took great care of him. I highly recommend her to anyone, but especially more timid dogs. She was excellent!”

Ashley B.

“Holly is the kind of care you would hope to have with a 5 star review. Not only did she truly care about my pups, she treated them as one of her own and sent me frequent updates on how they were doing. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.”

Alexis D.

“Angela watched our almost one year-old golden retriever Brady for Memorial Day weekend. I received updates and pictures throughout the weekend. Brady had a great time and was loved and cared for. I would definitely recommend Angela and will be using her in the future.”

Melissa L.

“We are extremely pleased with the care that Laura offered for our Bailey. Laura communicated with us during Bailey’s stay with her providing us with peace of mind that Bailey was in good hands and doing well. We definitely would love to use her again and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”

Roseanne S.

“Debbie is the most amazing person and the care and attention our dogs get is simply wonderful! I never worry about our fur babies when they are in Debbie’s Care! Her and her husband treat them like family. Our dogs simply love them!!”

Sandra S.

“Geoff!!!!! Great service! I had a family emergency and he was able to accommodate me quickly! Geoff also showed me my dogs living arrangements and made me feel very comfortable. Sent me pictures of Kobe and walked him right before we picked him up. I recommend Geoff and would rebook in a heartbeat.”

Jasmine D.

“Cassidy saved my life with a last minute booking for a 6 day boarding for my 2 year old Dutch Shepherd, Maple! I received pictures and videos daily, which my family and I enjoyed throughly. I was so relieved to find a trustworthy person and facility that did more than just feed and walk my dog twice each day. Cassidy’s expertise and experience with Dutch Shepherds was also a huge plus, given how high energy Dutch Shepherds are known to be. I will definitely be booking again in the future! Thanks Cassidy!”

Nadhira H.

“Very pleased with the care Maria gave Zoey. Maria sent updates and photos throughout Zoey’s stay. Will definitely use her services again. Couldn’t be more pleased.”

Laurie W.

“Morgan was fantastic! I contacted her relatively last minute to watch my puppy for a full day and she enthusiastically agreed to help me out! She kept my feisty pup safe, entertained, and tired out! I’m very grateful for her. And as the cherry on top, she came home and slept all night (a much needed full nights sleep for me, as well 😂)”

Michelle W.

“Can't have enough stars! She has now cared for my dogs twice and I will be bringing them here again. Fantastic, she communicates and keeps me updated on my pups every day, even sending photos. I don't have to worry when I leave my dogs with her.”

Emily T.

“I left my almost 16 year old pug with Carrie and her husband while I traveled for 10 days to visit family. I know she was in great hands, she’s usually a little nervous at first but ran right up her steps when I got there as she’s been there before short term. Carrie sent me messages and pictures often enough. She got lots of outdoor time, was tended to her older age needs, and even got to sleep next to them as she’s used to it at home. I feel very lucky to have found her through Rover and I’d highly recommend her and her husband!”

Lisa V.

About: i’m going into my second year of college pursuing a degree in science and mathematics. my goal is to have a career in wildlife rehabilitation or veterinary care. i also have experience within EMS & firefighting as i’ve been a volunteer since 16. i’ve always loved animals of any kind and have been in aw by my own pets. i have 2 cats and 2 dogs, but currently live with only my senior cat (i brought her along with me for college). shes very specific but i make sure to keep up on her needs and do whatever i can for my baby. i live in a smaller sized apartment so I don’t currently have my dogs living with me, but since being away i miss being around them. soon i will be an intern at a zoo for animal care so i’m really looking forward to this opportunity! i love looking after family and friends pets, everytime I just feel as joyous as can be. I would love to start taking care of more pets within my community and gain more experience! __________________________________________ little side note: i allow my pets on my bed and couch with me all the time, just for some reason I wasn’t sure how to edit that off my profile lol so just know your pet is more than welcome 👌 i’m currently on summer break working a part time job, but have a flexible schedule. i like to go outside to parks, find good places to hike, and staying active. with bookings i will make sure to keep myself available or work with your schedule, whether that be for mornings, evenings, or even overnight. i’m also available the weekends. once school begins i will still be able to remain flexible. my senior cat sofia is specific with her needs, whether that’s the food she eats, the places she sleeps, or the litter i get. whatever her needs may be, whether she likes her hard food or gets sick of and only wants wet food, i make sure to listen. when she’s having a stomach ache or under the weather, i’m alerted and get her the best care i can provide. when it comes to family or friends animals like their dogs i like to spend a lot of time with them outside, taking them to parks, and even to hike depending on the kind of dog and their energy level. for clients i’ll ensure to keep them updated on their pets and if their were special instructions on how they want their pet to be treated i will do my best to make sure they are safe and well cared for.

About: I have alot of experience with horse sized dogs and little obes alike, its important to me that they get the love they miss from their owners. Im currently going to school partime and learning the area so i have tons of time to go for walks or play with your fur baby and keep up their schedule. I want to make sure both of our spaces are respected, i like to keep places as nice as i left them so i try to take an hour to spot clean anywhere ive been or where your pet may have made a mess and leave it tidy. I do the same for my home, i clean after every visitor.

“Brooke was awesome! Responds immediately, very reliable and flexible. I would definitely use her again.”

Lisa D.

“This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous with leaving my pup with someone I didn't know. From the beginning, Angel was very reassuring and comforting. She was available to answer all my questions and I could tell she knew what she was doing. During Wyatt's stay, Angel sent me plenty of updates, pics, and cute videos of her dogs playing with my Wyatt. I loved that Angel had a great setup and knew how to introduce my dog to hers. I especially loved that Wyatt got to use all his energy by playing and interacting with Angel's dogs. From the pics I could tell he was having a BLAST, to say the least. Wyatt will be coming back. Angel was amazing and I highly recommend Angel's services.”

Jennifer G.

“Heather was amazing! She took care of our boy and made him feel at home with her. Kept us updated how he was doing and sent us pictures. Communication was great! She really put our mind at ease and we were able to enjoy our trip more knowing our boy was well taken care of. Above and beyond service.”

Daniel H.

“My dog spent a great week with Gianna! When I returned, my dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. The kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals truly stood out. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend Gianna to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their pets. Thank you for making my time away completely stress-free!”

About: Since the day I was born, I have been surrounded by dogs. I am blessed and dog obsessed - always loving and caring for each fur baby like it is my own. Please rely on me to walk, feed, play and provide any specific care to your fur baby that is needed. As a responsible and trustworthy individual who is so caring and always maintains a happy and positive attitude, I can promise you your dog will be in the best of hands while receiving the love and attention it deserves! I am currently working full-time, and absolutely love my job! What’s even better is having the flexibility to work remote a couple days throughout the week. This gives me plenty of time to spend with my fur baby, as well as yours! I am available a couple days throughout the week as well as on the weekends. Whether it is in my home or your home, your pet will always remain safe. Just like my Mini Aussiedoodle named Eve. Your pet will receive their food, fresh drinking water, regular exercise, and have access to the bathroom regularly.

“Emily was awesome! She really did a perfect job, and we couldn't recommend her more. She was conscientious, proactive, and had great communication. And she clearly has a way with animals. We came home to a very clean living space and happy cats. Thanks so much, Emily!”

Albert C.

“Tracy cared for my 2 cats for 8 nights. They fight a lot at home and I explained the situation to Tracy. She has worked with them and also gave us few pointers. Back home, they still fight but not that ferociously. Thanks Tracy!”

About: I’ve always had the biggest heart for animals! I was an animal science major in high school and spent much time volunteering at doggy daycares. In college I studied basic canine care and training where I got more experience and knowledge in training different types of dogs. I currently have a couple of pups that I gain more experience from everyday! 🥰 Currently in between employments and looking for something to keep me occupied that would benefit others as well. So I’ll be available anytime that would be convenient for you! I have decent space for my pups and have my own precautions. I will prioritize the safety and wellbeing of your fur baby as if they're my own, so I assure you that I will follow any and all instructions given to me by you.

“Emily is *wonderful.* I needed someone to drop in on my two cats to feed them (and make sure they weren’t fighting, one is new and we’re still adjusting) and Emily was so consistent with when she came to feed them and very communicative about problems and questions she had during her visits. I highly recommend her ?”

About: I have a Wildlife Biology degree as well as having previous veterinary clinic experience working with all animals. I have had many different types of animals growing up and currently care for a five-year-old, 80 lbs black lab, who is full of energy and love everyone and everything. Taking care of my fur baby when I’m not at work is of great importance to me. Her happiness will always fit into my schedule no matter how busy I get. Make sure they are fed and have access to continuous amounts of water. Always have some fun time with some toys and walks. Will not leave them until they are satisfied and happy.

About: Hey I’m Caroline! My husband and I live with our 2 rescue dachshund mixes, Bert and Reggie, in Taberg, NY. I am currenly accepting new clients for drop-in visits and walking.

I have experience with dog walking, feeding and watering, administering medications, and training puppes. I have been volunteering at animal shelters for over 10 years. I have had pets such as dogs, cats and small mammals for over 25 years. References can be provided upon request. I work full-time from home in Taberg, NY, so I can do drop-in visits or walks in the Camden/Rome/Utica area on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I am available other weekdays upon request.

About: I grew up on a farm in Reseda, CA with as many as 9 dogs at 1 time and also goats, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters. I had 3 dogs as an adult but they have all since passed away at the ages of 16, 16 and 17 so yes I take very good of my animals. I currently have 2 cats, Sydnee and Maycee who are 1.5. I hope to get another dog someday but until then, I hope to take care of and love your dogs like they are my own. I have a flexible schedule and I am available during the day for walks/feeding and or evenings/weekends for vacation pet sitting on pretty short notice. I can provide loving care of your fur babies in your home and treat them like my own. You can always trust that they are in good hands.

“Alexandrea was absolutely amazing with our two cats! Communication with her was easy and she sent us pictures everyday of our cats. First time trying rover and she went above and beyond for us. Not only did she take great care of the cats, she even cleared snow when there was a storm while we were away, so above and beyond what she came to do! I would recommend her to anyone for care of your pets while you’re away.”

About: I am from Lima Peru, I studied veterinary medicine at the Scientific University of the South. I am a cat lover. I have 5 cats ( including a blind one) I have worked with cats since I started studying veterinary medicine until now. I will take care of your little ones as if they were mine

About: I have extensive experience caring for cats at every stage of life. I’ve been caring for cats since I was 5 years old, starting with my first cat, Rosie, and have since gained hands-on experience with both kittens and senior cats. I’ve also raised four kittens (three rescues), so I understand the patience, attention, and consistency young cats need to thrive. I’m especially comfortable with senior cat care, including administering medications, managing special diets, and assisting with more advanced needs like subcutaneous fluids. I’m very attentive to subtle changes in behavior or health—something especially important with cats—and can provide a higher level of care for those with medical needs. While my primary focus is cats, I do have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs through my own pets and those of friends and family.

About: What sets me apart as a cat sitter is my commitment to providing specialized care that goes beyond the basics. I'm not just here to feed your cat; I'm dedicated to ensuring their health, happiness, and comfort in every way. Specialized Care and Experience I have extensive experience with administering medications, including pills and liquids. I understand that a consistent schedule is crucial for your cat's health, and I'll make sure their medication is given precisely as prescribed. My background in handling cats with special needs, such as those with diabetes, kidney disease, or anxiety, means I'm prepared for any situation. Beyond medication, I believe a clean environment is a key part of a cat's well-being. I take pride in deep-cleaning litter boxes, ensuring they're scooped multiple times a day and sanitized regularly to prevent odors and promote hygiene. I also make sure food and water bowls are kept sparkling clean. A Focus on Mental and Physical Well-being My visits are not just a quick stop. I dedicate time to interactive play, using toys and games to keep your cat mentally stimulated and physically active. For more timid cats, I offer a gentle and patient presence, allowing them to warm up to me at their own pace. I can also provide grooming, like brushing and nail trims, if needed. When you choose me, you're not just hiring a sitter; you're getting a dedicated partner in your cat's care. I'll provide detailed updates after every visit, complete with photos and notes on how your cat is doing, so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away.

“Tracy is AMAZING. If I could give more than 5 stars I would in a heartbeat. Bean loves her so much!! Not only does Tracy watch her all day, she takes her on walks, helps with training, snuggles with her etc. I was so worried to send my Bean to daycare generally speaking, but to say we’re lucky to have found Tracy is an understatement!!!”

About: Dog mom providing loving, reliable care for puppies, adults, and seniors. Patient, attentive, and committed to keeping every pet safe and happy, and comfortable always. As a full-time online student, I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home with my Poms. This allows me to provide attentive, reliable care for one to two dogs per day, ensuring they receive plenty of supervision, exercise, playtime, and affection. I have my own home with a large patio area where pets can enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time. Since it is not fenced, I always keep pets safely supervised and use their collar or leash when needed. I provide daily walks, exercise, playtime, and loving care while following each pet’s routine and needs.

“Unfortunately my dog Millie never had the chance to go meet Angel and her dogs, as our plans changed and I was able to bring her with me on our outing.

About: I have several years of experience with my adorable pup and lots of others! I would love to get to know your dog!! :) :) I am a college student home for the summer working at my part time job. (I work at a golf course as well.) I’m available everyday of the week, except for some weeknight afternoons and weekend mornings - but this changes frequently so my schedule is pretty open. I am extremely careful caring for pets, as I would want and expect for anyone to do for my dog as well. Nothing is ever left out for my pet to get into, doors/windows/etc are always shut, yard is fenced in and my dog is always leashed when I am with him, unless he is in our fenced in yard.

“Heather was great with my little guy. I was heading to Cooperstown for a few hours and needed a place for him to stay while I was out and about. Heather sent me pictures and updates the few hours she had him. If you’re ever in the area, I highly recommend using Heather to watch your dog!”

I can do mornings, afternoons and night times. I will make sure to be in constant contact with photos and I have the ability to swing by during work hours. I love my two dogs. I will treat your pets like I'd want my pets treated by a caregiver. I know what it is like to leave town on vacation or a weekend away and worry about who will be watching your loved ones. I will love them and treat them like they are my own pets!

My first priority is keeping your fury friend safe and then they will be also be happy. I want your pet to feel at home when they are at my house. Depending on the service you request and the need for your specific animal this will vary. Each animal will have it's own individualized plan agreed upon with the animals owner.

About: Hi, I'm Emily and animals have been at the heart and center of my entire life. Animals bring quality and enrichment to our lives and I like to give that back in return. I've been fortunate to have animals since I was a little girl, from pocket pets, to cats, dogs, goats, horses and even a cow! In a professional capacity, I was a veterinary technician for over 8 years, providing emergency and routine care, for both large and small animals. I have cared for cats, dogs, chickens, cows, horses, and donkeys while owners were away for about the past 10 years. The last 4 years, I have been active in kennel clubs, taking classes and learning about dog training. I am currently co-teaching obedience classes and plan to continue learning about dog behavior and training. I am currently taking clients for drop in visits and walks. Drop in visits will be tailored to your pet's specific needs, providing potty breaks, fresh food/water, cleaning, comfort, & play. Walks provide physical and mental stimulation, companionship, basic skills and play. **For large dog requests, I ask as a courtesy that they are well mannered and are not likely to jump on me and knock me over or drag me as I am only 100lbs 🙂 thank you! Safety is of utmost importance. I am committed to your pet's mental, physical health, and safety overall. I will take care as I do my own. I recognize that each animal has its own personality, some are outgoing, some are shy. I will allow them to be who they are so that they can feel safe in my presence. I will communicate with you based on your preference. I provide reports at the conclusion of each check-in, also happy to send photos if your pet is comfortable with that.

I would love to start taking care of more pets within my community and gain more experience! __________________________________________ little side note: i allow my pets on my bed and couch with me all the time, just for some reason I wasn’t sure how to edit that off my profile lol so just know your pet is more than welcome 👌 i’m currently on summer break working a part time job, but have a flexible schedule. i like to go outside to parks, find good places to hike, and staying active. with bookings i will make sure to keep myself available or work with your schedule, whether that be for mornings, evenings, or even overnight. i’m also available the weekends. once school begins i will still be able to remain flexible. my senior cat sofia is specific with her needs, whether that’s the food she eats, the places she sleeps, or the litter i get. whatever her needs may be, whether she likes her hard food or gets sick of and only wants wet food, i make sure to listen. when she’s having a stomach ache or under the weather, i’m alerted and get her the best care i can provide. when it comes to family or friends animals like their dogs i like to spend a lot of time with them outside, taking them to parks, and even to hike depending on the kind of dog and their energy level. for clients i’ll ensure to keep them updated on their pets and if their were special instructions on how they want their pet to be treated i will do my best to make sure they are safe and well cared for.

About: With 6 years of dedicated experience in pet care, I provide a comprehensive and compassionate service tailored to the unique needs of each animal. My expertise extends beyond basic care to include specialized skills such as positive reinforcement-based puppy training, helping to establish good habits from an early age. I also have a deep understanding of senior dog care, including administering medication, providing gentle exercise, and creating a comfortable, low-stress environment. I have experience managing a variety of medical conditions, ensuring your furry family member is safe and well-cared for at all times. My goal is to be a trusted partner in your pet's health and happiness, providing peace of mind while you're away. Each morning starts with feeding, watering, and a potty break for the pets in my care. This is followed by a morning walk or playtime to get their energy out and start the day on a positive note. Throughout the day, I follow individual schedules, which might include specific feeding times for puppies or senior dogs, medication administration, or scheduled walks and potty breaks. The afternoon often includes another round of playtime or enrichment activities, such as puzzle feeders or training sessions, to keep their minds engaged. Evenings are typically quieter, with a final feeding and potty break before a relaxing wind-down. My weekly routine involves a bit more planning. I coordinate with pet owners to schedule walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I also use this time to restock on supplies and keep detailed records of each pet's behavior, eating habits, and health. If a pet is in my care for an extended period, I might schedule a grooming appointment to ensure they're in top shape. My schedule is built around the needs of the pet, ensuring they receive consistent, loving care and that their owners have peace of mind. Caring for pets, whether on my own or a client's, requires a responsible and attentive approach to ensure their well-being. A fundamental aspect is providing a consistent routine, including scheduled feeding times with high-quality, species-appropriate food and fresh water that is always accessible. Regular exercise is crucial for both physical and mental health; this can range from daily walks for dogs to interactive playtime. Environmental enrichment, such as toys, scratching posts, and comfortable bedding, helps prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. It's also vital to maintain a clean and safe living space by regularly cleaning food and water bowls, litter boxes, and bedding. Beyond daily care, a thorough pet care plan includes regular grooming, such as brushing and nail trims, and staying up-to-date on veterinary care, including vaccinations and preventative treatments for fleas, ticks, and worms. For client homes, clear communication is paramount. It is important for me to obtain detailed instructions regarding the pet's specific needs, routines, medications, and any behavioral quirks, as well as emergency contact information. This holistic approach, combining routine care with attention to individual needs and a focus on safety and hygiene, ensures a happy and healthy life for any pet under my care.

“Tracy is our go-to when we need someone to care for our dogs. She always pays attention to detail and keeps us in the loop on how our dogs are doing. We would recommend Tracy to anyone looking for a reliable person who is sweet to their animals! 🤍”

“I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with Becky! From our first interaction, it was clear how genuinely caring, responsible, and attentive they were. She took the time to get to know our dog’s personality and little quirks, which immediately put us at ease. Throughout the stay, we received consistent updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins that made it so easy to relax knowing our pup was in such great hands. It honestly felt like our dog was on their own little vacation. What really stood out was the level of detail and effort. Becky and her daughter went above and beyond in every way. Whether it was sticking to her feeding and supplement schedules, making sure our dog got plenty of love and attention, extra attention to her needs (it was a change of seasons aka shedding time and they gave her lots of extra care and brushing to keep her comfortable!), it was all so appreciated. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pet, but I would 100% book Becky again without hesitation and recommend her to absolutely anyone. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, you’ve found the one!”

“Angela watched our almost one year-old golden retriever Brady for Memorial Day weekend. I received updates and pictures throughout the weekend. Brady had a great time and was loved and cared for. I would definitely recommend Angela and will be using her in the future.”

“Geoff!!!!! Great service! I had a family emergency and he was able to accommodate me quickly! Geoff also showed me my dogs living arrangements and made me feel very comfortable. Sent me pictures of Kobe and walked him right before we picked him up. I recommend Geoff and would rebook in a heartbeat.”

“Cassidy saved my life with a last minute booking for a 6 day boarding for my 2 year old Dutch Shepherd, Maple! I received pictures and videos daily, which my family and I enjoyed throughly. I was so relieved to find a trustworthy person and facility that did more than just feed and walk my dog twice each day. Cassidy’s expertise and experience with Dutch Shepherds was also a huge plus, given how high energy Dutch Shepherds are known to be. I will definitely be booking again in the future! Thanks Cassidy!”

“Can't have enough stars! She has now cared for my dogs twice and I will be bringing them here again. Fantastic, she communicates and keeps me updated on my pups every day, even sending photos. I don't have to worry when I leave my dogs with her.”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous with leaving my pup with someone I didn't know. From the beginning, Angel was very reassuring and comforting. She was available to answer all my questions and I could tell she knew what she was doing. During Wyatt's stay, Angel sent me plenty of updates, pics, and cute videos of her dogs playing with my Wyatt. I loved that Angel had a great setup and knew how to introduce my dog to hers. I especially loved that Wyatt got to use all his energy by playing and interacting with Angel's dogs. From the pics I could tell he was having a BLAST, to say the least. Wyatt will be coming back. Angel was amazing and I highly recommend Angel's services.”

Jennifer G.

“My dog spent a great week with Gianna! When I returned, my dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. The kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals truly stood out. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend Gianna to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their pets. Thank you for making my time away completely stress-free!”

Sabrina L.

“We couldn’t have picked anyone better than Dennis! He was absolutely phenomenal with our pup. Kept her very busy while we were away and showered her with love! Highly recommend.”
