“Tater had a great time! He left happy and tired, which is the sign of a good stay. We got many pictures and videos throughout the weekend and felt we made a great choice for a sitter. Thanks again!”
“Ben and his family were amazing hosts. It was our puppy’s first time away from us. They were very caring and thoughtful. Ben went out of his way to find our Puppy’s preferred dog food and treats. Our puppy went from being shy and reserved around other dogs to actually playing with them when they are there. At the end of the 4 days he was with them our pup didn’t want to leave Ben’s mom!”
“Marina, Richard and their three girls are amazing! We tried this family out for the first time on quick notice as the other plans with another sitter did not work out. Our dog Choco is elderly dog and an “only furry child” at home. With the pandemic we stayed home with remote working and other changes so Choco was used to having us around all the time. There was a moment of separation anxiety with the drop off, but that’s normal. And the pandemic amplified this separation anxiety in so many dogs that we know with our friends and hearing their stories. I appreciate the care and attention that Marina and Richard took to make Choco feel comfortable with extra hugs and cuddling. Choco’s appetite was a little fussy, and Marina ended up feeding Choco one of his first meals by hand. They are a true blessing! I like the way that Marina gave lots of info on Choco’s energy and appetite along with photos for the updates. When I arrived to pick up Choco to go home, Choco was nestled so comfortably and calmly in Richard’s arms that I had to ask Choco if he wanted to go home or stay! LOL. We have a happy doggie and know that Choco will be so happy to stay with this family again next week. Thank you Marina and Richard!!! -Irene, Stan and Choco”
“Our Toby loves Michelle and we love her too! I love getting several pictures and videos of Toby while we're gone, so I can tell he is doing really well. That gives me peace of mind while out of town, knowing that our fur baby is in good, loving hands. Toby gets regular walks and lots of snuggles with Michelle, and I love that he doesn't have to be left alone for hours. I truly appreciate Michelle!”
“Stanley and Victoria were excellent! Mozby warmed up very quickly at our meet 'n greet. They send pics and videos all during our trip. When we had a hiccup with our return flight and pick up time, they were very gracious, accommodating and helpful. When I left with Mozby on his leash, he quickly turned around to give Stanley a goodbye hug... Something he only really does with ME!!! I know that he was well taken care of and loved while with Stanley. I know Mozby looks forward to our next vacation so he can visit his favorite Rover dog sitter!!”
“I am so glad I found Ellen and Larry! I am usually so anxious when I have to leave my pup with someone but I wasn’t worried at all. She sent photos and stayed in communication with me about how he was. She has a wonderful yard and home for the pups to enjoy and her very sweet dog Teddy helps her out keeping the pups happy. And my baby loves both Ellen and Larry. He came home happy, and almost didn’t want to leave.”
About: I have a deep sense of responsibility when it comes to caring for pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’ve been watching friends’ dogs for over 5 years and also have a 3-year-old cat myself. I understand how stressful it can feel to leave your pet behind, so I aim to create a calm, loving, and safe environment while you’re away. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, or just quiet companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I work from home most days and that allows me to visit your home at your desired time. If needed, I’m available as early as 6 AM and as late as 8 PM. I have a separate space in my house where I can watch pets if needed. I have a large, fenced backyard for dogs and cat trees with toys for cats.
“Akiko is great! She always responded to my text within minutes. Ginger made lots of friends while staying with Akiko's house. Akiko sent lots of pictures during her stay, is very responsive and flexible and took great care of Ginger! I would absolutely use her again :-)”
“Jennifer is amazing! We always book with her when we go out of town. This time she took on a last minute request because we had a change in travel plans. In addition to visiting our two cats, she also boarded our dog at her place! Super appreciate her flexibility, communication, and our pets always seem happy whenever we return home.”
“This is my second go around with Leslie she’s kind and prompt and you can tell she really loved what’s she’s doing. The care she has shown my animal has been a contributing factor on me writing this review as well as trusting her deeply with my baby. My lala loves going over there and her space is clean and open and wants you to feel the most comfortable always. I’m a forever customer ♥️”
“Beth is amazing. It's my second time having my dog stay with her and once my dog sees Beth she was so excited and really wanted to get in her house. And she always bring my dog to dog park and having lots of fun. Also Beth sent me multiple videos and picture during stays so I don’t need to worry.”
“My 15-year-old pupper seemed to do really well with Alexis. Alexis did a thorough meet and greet with her dogs and answered all of my questions. I was nervous to leave my dog as she is older, has seizures and requires some medications. Alexis was very comfortable and has experience. She also was very responsive to messages and kept me informed with messages and photos. I highly recommend, and will definitely use her services again. Thanks for taking such good care of my senior girl!”
“Daria's the best! Took great care of my fur babies -- she sent lots of pictures and kept me up to date on how they were doing. They got walks and lots of attention! When I picked them up they didn't seem stressed at all. In fact, I think they had such a great time that I don't think they wanted to leave! I highly recommend Daria and will definitely book with her in the future.”
“We appreciate Dahye having two meet and greets before we left her for her stay. She is very caring. She took our Ruby out for walk to explore neighborhood. We forgot a small item and when I went back next day, Ruby wanted to jump out of car to go back for visit.”
“Anna was so wonderful with my baby boy Blue! She was very communicative and sent me pictures throughout his day. I knew my boy was feeling safe in the environment. Her dogs are very friendly! Anyone who’s looking for a responsive caregiver please reach out to Anna!”

“We’re so glad to have found Jessica! She is attentive, thorough, communicative, and super caring to our cat and dog. She writes detailed notes and send lots of pet photos in every visit, making our time away from home a breeze. Highly recommend!”
“I recently moved to the area & Natalie has been a lifesaver when I can’t be there for my furbabies! Less than a year ago, I adopted a little dog from an abuse situation who now has severe separation anxiety, but warmed up to Natalie instantly :) I also have a very skittish cat & a bunny & Natalie has taken great care of my little gang when I’ve needed her help. I would definitely recommend her as a dog walker & for drop in visits (:”
“Aidan was fantastic with our two cats while my partner and I were out of town for the holidays. He was extremely communicative, both prior to and during our visits, and it was clear that he wanted to ensure our cats were as happy and healthy as could be. He was especially understanding with one of our kitties who tends to be a bit spicy and who can have anxiety with new people. We really appreciate him taking the time to clean litter boxes, refresh water, feed food, and enjoy treats and play time with the kitties on each visit. One thing that stood out about Aidan was that he went out of his way to pick up some additional treats for our cats that had run out and provided detailed updates and many photos each day. I couldn't recommend Aidan more!”
“Elizabeth is the best! We’ve loved having her care for our cat whenever we’ve been away. She’s attentive, responsive and very gentle. We plan to continue booking with Elizabeth and recommend her to anyone!”
“We have had Jennifer a few times and she is great with our 2 guys. Lots of photos and updates and she plays with our energetic cat a lot. We know they are always well cared for when she comes over.”
“Caitlin has walked our energetic pup weekly for the past couple years and has done an amazing job. She handles his high energy and quirks so well and clearly loves animals. Our pup is always so excited to see her. She has also done drop-in visits for our three kitties while we’re out of town and again does an amazing job. She sends great updates with pictures so we know how they’re doing and it’s such a relief to know they’re in good hands while we’re gone. Overall, Caitlin is very professional, trustworthy, and communicative - she has been such a huge help to us.”
“Grace is amazing! She went above and beyond for all my pets, both furry and scaly while I was gone. She gave great updates and I slept well thousands of miles away knowing that all my babies were being attended to with attention and care. I highly recommend her for all your pet-sitting needs.”
“April was very responsive and respectful when looking after my baby!! I can tell my cat enjoys her visits, and she follows directions well- would definitely recommend, thank you April!!”
“Kristen arrived as scheduled, did everything requested, and went aboveand beyond to document her care of my pet. I would not hesitate to schedule her again should the need arise.”
“Isabel took wonderful care of our cat Esther while we were on vacation, including cleaning her litter box and sending great photos and videos of her. We came home to a happy healthy feline. Esther recommends Isabel if you are looking for a loving and responsible pet sitter, and we recommend her too.”
“We had a really great experience with Kseniia taking care of our cats. She followed all of our instructions carefully, kept the litter boxes clean, refreshed food and water, and took wonderful care of our cats. One of our cats is usually very selective about people, but he came out to her and even enjoyed being petted and played with, which says a lot. She even offered to clean up the mess the cats had made, even though we hadn’t asked. We were able to enjoy our vacation with complete peace of mind, knowing our cats were in caring and reliable hands. Highly recommend!”

“Jacklyn was great! Sent lots of (very cute!) pictures, walked McCoy, and made sure he got along with her own dog. McCoy was always happy to see her (and her dog) when we dropped him off. Jacklyn was also very responsive to us (e.g. when we had to modify our arrival/pick up time) which made our lives very easy.”
“Butters came back happy and tired. They kept us informed with a lot of pictures and videos. They had multiple dogs at the place which i think makes it fun ! they took good care of him”
“Marina, Richard, and their family kept such good care of my 11 week old puppy Koda. He came home and was so tired from playing and all the love he was shown. Thank you for taking such great care of our puppy. Your family is definitely our first pick when needing a sitter.”
“Always an exceptional experience, and we never have to worry. I wholeheartedly recommend Michelle, Keith, and Lola — such a wonderful family. They’re personable, caring, and genuinely the best.”
“Dot had a terrific first day of care with Jaime. I got updates, pictures , she had time outside before it got too warm + snacks. She also SLEPT and came home tired which is always a perk. Much appreciated Jaime”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Quinten provided for my dog Penny. From the moment we met, it was clear they had a genuine love for animals. They kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My pet was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I returned. I highly recommend Quinten to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter!”
“Kristina is an amazing furbaby sitter, and we are so grateful for the care and attention she gives to Enzo every time he stays with her. Enzo is a regular with Kristina, which says a lot about the trust and comfort we feel leaving him in her care. She is dependable, kind, and truly treats him like family. We always appreciate the updates, love, and patience she gives him, and it gives us peace of mind knowing he is safe, happy, and well cared for. Enzo always comes home relaxed and happy, and we highly recommend Kristina to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter! 🐾”
“Dahye was amazing with my pups and very loving! She and her husband were very conscientious and showed both my babies the perfect amount of attention. My girls were very happy with their play date and worn out on the ride home!”
“Amanda was great! She communicated clearly with me and took great care of my pup. My dog was always so excited to go to daycare with her and she never wanted to leave. She got along very well with the other pets in the house.”
“My senior pup loved snuggling with Judy all day while I was at work! Judy took excellent care of my pup, providing her with frequent potty trips and her afternoon meal! When I picked up my pup, she was cozied up in her bed and didn’t want to leave :) I will definitely schedule with Judy again. Plus, drop off/pickup was super easy as she’s in a convenient location and there is a free parking garage right under her building!”
“Thank you so much Lilia and fam for watching Gunner. It can be hard leaving him, but knowing he was safe, loved, and kept busy made all the difference. I could tell he had an amazing day because he came home happy and content. We appreciate you!”
“Vanessa took such a good care of our dog. She sent tons of photos during the day and kept us updated on their routine and on my dog’s behavior. She has really cute kids that look like great around dogs and love to give them pets. She is very sweet and responsive, and I will totally recommend her.”
“Lexi and Victor were very easy going and responsive. We booked them so we could go hiking in Mount Rainier National Park for the day and it worked perfect. They were flexible and had great communication. Teddy had a great time.”
“Maria is fantastic! Marky is hesitant when it comes to interacting with people and dogs when I am not with him but Maria showed him there was nothing to fear! They take beautiful walks together, naps with his friends, and gets to play all day in a pack. He comes home tired and happy when the day is done. Maria really loves all of the dogs like her own”
About: Most people call me Josh. Dogs have always been my favorite animal and I've lived with them for most of my life. I am recently dog-free and I miss having dog energy in my house. I've raised two dogs through basic obedience to adulthood, one with a class, and one largely on my own. I am personally a big believer in the methods described in The Art of Raising a Puppy, because I have had excellent results with their techniques, but will of course prioritize whatever approach is preferred by owners. I am happy to help reinforce any basic obedience your dog may be working on, as well as senior dogs. I am comfortable with a wide range of dog breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Highly reactive dogs are not my favorite, but "highly reactive" can be subjective, so I will consider such dogs on a case by case basis. I am happy to work with dogs of varying activity levels, but extremely high-activity dogs will also be considered on a case-by-case basis. I am currently working from home and am available for dropoff in-home daycare most weekdays and dog boarding (including weekends). My schedule for my dog was three walks a day (morning, afternoon/dinnertime, bedtime) so that is what I'm used to, but I am happy to work with clients to discuss their routine and work with them to agree on an experience that fits their and their dog's needs. I currently have no other animals in my home, so your dog will get my full attention as needed. I don't have a fenced yard, but I am in a residential neighborhood with a good-sized park a block away. I am reasonably close to Seward Park and the Genesee dog park as well.
“Joyce and her husband were wonderful with our Coco. They know dogs and worked so well with ours. He has a bit of separation anxiety, but Joyce and her dogs took care of that immediately. Loved the large fenced back yard and the fact that her 2 dogs were small so ours wasn’t intimated. Looking forward to working with her again.”
“Elan and family are great! Fast responses and kept me up to date with pictures throughout the day. My dog had a great time and came home tired from all the play. I would be comfortable with Elan watching my dog again.”

“We just moved to the area and are blessed to have found Beth on Rover! Beth is a loving and conscientious pet owner herself. She understands that our pets are family members. ^__^ We have Beth scheduled to come and take them on a daily walk during the work week. I can tell that they get a good long daily walk and that they are enjoying themselves! She is professional, caring, very responsive & informative with pictures and updates throughout the walks, kind, detail orientated, has amazing communication skills and all around someone we can trust with our pups and in our home. She always takes great care of the pups, gives me a full review of their walk each and every day along with pictures of my two boys. We HIGHLY recommend BETH!”
“Brandy clearly loves and cares about pups!!! Our Charlie had a wonderful time walking with her and I'm sure he's looking forward to his next walk with Brandy 🥰🥰🥰 Thank you for making sure Charlie had a great time on his birthday walk since I couldn't do it myself due to being out of town for work. Brandy also sent plenty of adorable pictures of Charlie for me to fawn over so that was awesome!!!”
“May was able to help out on short notice which was much appreciated. She was promot picking up Hulu for his walk and always sent update pics. We would definitely use May again.”
“Lauren was quick to notice Riley's patch he had been scratching and took a photo for me. It was a great way to help me see what I was coming home to and how to prep for his care. AWESOME job.”
“Kristin is always very communicative, letting us know when she is on the way for theor walk. She takes the time to send lots of pictures of their adventures and provide updates on how things are going. Our babies get so excited when Kristen arrives. They love their time with her.”
“Daniel took care of Luna for daily breakfast feedings and morning walks while we were gone on an international trip. We knew we could rely on Daniel to get the job done.”
“Lillia is super responsible - she responds to messages very quick and calls my number when she has questions when walking dog. She also plays with my dog in the backyard when my dog is not willing to walk :) Overall pretty great experience for me and my dog!”
“I’ve used Megan many times. She has great communication, is knowledgeable about animals and cares about your pet. I have a young puppy that she’s taken on numerous walks and she has been patient and helped him learn good habits. Megan then gives me great tips on how to continue to help my pup.”
“Isa did a great job with our dog, Frida. She’s reliable and communicative, and it’s clear from the pictures that all of our animals (dog and 3 cats) wanted to be around her! We recommend her for your dog and cat care needs, and we’ll definitely be rebooking her again.”
“Rebecca is awesome! Very friendly and our dog loved her. She used a door code to enter our home while we were gone, took our dog on a walk, brought him back, and locked back up without a hitch. Will definitely be booking her again in the future 😁”

“Sophia is fantastic! We usually rotate between two dog walkers in case one has something come up. We recently needed help walking our dog for 2 weeks, so we split the time between our two walkers, and our other walker fell through last minute. Sophia graciously took on the additional week of walks with short notice, which really helped us out. She was on time, adjusted the walks based on our dog's needs (too hot, too rainy, etc.), kept us updated with cute pictures, and communicated promptly. We will definitely be booking with Sophia again!”
“Banjo’s first walk with Jeannie was a smashing success! Her updates gave us the piece of mind that he was in the best of hands during his walk. Looking forward to booking with Jeannie again.”

“Jason and his family were very welcoming. It was very short notice and he helped me be comfortable with my first Rover experience. Rudy fit in and had a blast. Jason sent pictures and a video. She looked so happy! Jason had a big enough yard for the dogs to run and play. He also had a very large kennel area when Rudy needed a break from the others. I would have liked a small update on her night and how she was during the day. Overall it was a great experience and Rudy left as a happy and tired pup.”
“Kirsten is amazing, she is super accommodating, actually cared for our needs and wants and was super quick to respond and provides photo updates. Our dog has separation anxiety and it isn't easy finding someone we think would be a good fit. 6 stars if I could, we have already booked again!”

“Katie has always been so nice and we love the way her and her family look after our big guy! We can always tell they treat him like their very own and we can't recommend them enough!”
