About: I had an Australian shepherd for 11 years and love dogs! I have experience petsitting for dogs of all sizes, including puppies. Having had an Aussie, I also have plenty of experience with very high energy, stubborn dogs as well. I am a college student who has plenty of time in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends to take care of your dog. I also have breaks throughout the day. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with a backyard, but no fence. I know lots of tricks and games for keeping your dog entertained, and like to leave the house to go walking and hiking.
“Maddy, was awesome with our little girl Nala, this was the first time we left her with someone. She was wonderful with Nala. She made us feel very comfortable. She went above and beyond taking care of her definitely five star paid attention to detail and just can't say it enough good of how great she was. She collected our mail for us. She brought in our deliveries, she watered our plants. The list goes on.She's amazing, incredible. She sent us pictures every day and called us so that we could see Nala as well..”
About: I have spent most of my life around dogs and had one of my own for over 11 years! I have plenty of experience and feel very confident caring for a dog at any stage of its life, including senior care! I have also dog sat for my friends and family many times. I know how important it is to make a dog feel comfortable and cared for even when their owners aren’t there. I always strive to create the best environment for any animal I’m around! I am currently a senior in college and my class load is very light so my schedule is very flexible! I have plenty of free time that I would love to spend caring for your pets! I will always be available during normal work hours to accommodate your pet care needs. I have a very safe and secured yard and house for any animals. I do not currently have any pets so your animal would be the only one in my home and the center of my attention! I have a lot of experience walking big, small, hyper, and aggressive dogs so no matter what, your pet will be in good hands!
“Meghan has watching my cats a couple times and always does a great job! She sends lot of great pics and gives them all the love while I'm away! Super appreciative of her! 💜”
“Grace came to watch Bax with very short notice which took a lot of weight off my shoulders. She is caring , followed my instructions and Baxter seems very relaxed with her. I will be using her services again.”
About: My whole life I have always had dogs. I absolutely love all animals. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. It is so much fun to meet new animals! I have no job as of right now and I only go to school from 9:10 am-2:26 pm with an hour and a half break everyday from 11:22 am -12:58 pm. I will do anything asked of me to help take care of your fur babies to cause you no stress while you are away! I will even take them to the groomers and vet if needed.
“Des did an awesome job taking care of our kitties! She took extra care to clean their bowls which we didn't even ask for. We're very grateful for her taking such good care of our kitties!❤️❤️”
“Vincent was excellent! It was our first time booking Vincent, and he even dropped by before our trip to meet Buster and learn about our routines. We had Vincent stop by several times throughout the day and the communication was amazing. He sent us pictures of our dog, Buster, out in the yard, on a walk or two, etc. Our dog was well taken care of and loved while we were away!”
About: I've owned and cared for cats and dogs my whole life and want the opportunity to care for yours while you're away! I recently had to put down my sweet Marta (Dachshund & Chihuahua) of 16 years and i am looking to fill the void of her absence until I'm ready to own a new puppy. I will show each and every animal the love and care they deserve while under my watch. I work full time with NYS DOT and have been for 12 years. I work Monday to Friday from 0700 - 3:30 p.m. Any time after that I am available to assist you with your pet care needs. Saturdays and Sundays I am free all day. I have my front and back doors always closed to ensure no accidental escapes occur. I let my dog on the couch/furniture as my home is their home.
About: I've had experience with an assortment of animals for a large part of my life. I volunteered an animal shelter in Scottsville, NY for about two years walking dogs of every size and taking care of cats. I have also housed two large German Shepherds and three Dachshunds, both of which are very demanding breeds. I currently reside in Owego, NY, and I work part-time in Endicott, NY Monday through Wednesday from 8AM to 5PM. I may provide brief surfaces on evenings these days, such as a walk or stop-in. Any other day is fair game. Per the restrictions of my apartment complex, I won't be able to care for or bring pets in my home. However, I would be sure to respect any client's home I may enter.
About: I have always been an animal lover. I grew up with a Labrador Retriever who lived to be 16. Sadly, his health slowly deteriorated as I was in graduate school while living at home, but this allowed me to gain valuable experience with a senior pup. I have always enjoyed horses and horse-back riding, I often volunteered through college at a local stable to get my horse fix! Something about those gentle, giants just speaks to me! I have watched several friends and family members pets at their homes while out of town. I have had friends recommend me to their other friends and family as well. I have demonstrated reliability and integrity. I currently have two cats, Finley and Paisley, and a floppy eared rabbit named Willow. I often bring Willow to work with me; she acts as a therapy rabbit at my place of employment. I also frequently assist my parents with their current rambunctious Labrador Retriever, who I lovingly refer to as my "puppy brother." I assist with walking, bathing, feeding and doing drop ins when they are gone for the day. Currently I do work a full time M-F, 8-4 schedule. However, due to the nature of my job, I have summers off so my availability will be much more flexible towards the end of June. Currently, pet care would have to be in evenings and various weekends. My own pets are spoiled beyond belief and I would do the exact same for yours! My pets are my children, not just animals, and I intend on treating everyone's fur babies as such. For drop ins, I have no problem feeding, watering, changing litter boxes, crating or playing with your pet. For walks, I am comfortable with picking up feces and following leash laws/regulations.
About: I have the communication, patience and empathy, physical fitness, multi tasking, time management, situational awareness, organization, flexibility, and most important my love for all animals! I have a very flexible job where I can be available 7 days a week depending on the needs of the pet and the owners. I work remote, so I can spend time with your pet all day depending on the service needed. We have a safe neighborhood for nice walks as well.
“I have a cat that is not very social with new people. When Diane came to let my dogs out the cat came right out and showed her love! She sent me photos and made me feel so comfortable with leaving my boys in her care!”
About: I've had dogs my entire life, but really started taking a lot of responsibility for their care around 12. From small breeds to large, I've loved them all! I have experience with behavioral issues, medication administration, seizures, and other medical issues. I'm a stay at home mom of two beautiful disabled children. We have one cat and one dog. I'm always home and available during the day for boarding. We have nice, big yards and we live in a very friendly neighborhood! I'd also love to help take care of your babes on the weekends, evenings, and occasionally during the week! I have an unfenced but spacious yard. Our home has the capacity to keep everyone separated if needed, but lots of room to be together, too! We have plenty of room for a crate, if that's how your sweet babe thrives, but we also support snuggles during sleep, too!

About: With 12 years experience (including my family dog) or 2 years of watching others dogs I can care for all dog breeds, sizes and personalities. I will provide more than just basic care-I will be a companion for them that will be consistent and have genuine love for your furry family members. From long walks for the high energy dogs to short walks with nice times to sit down with senior dogs I can tailor for your dogs unique needs. I treat every dog like my own with patience, respect and a whole lot of tail wags. Daily visits, overnight stays or extended vacations. I will make sure your dog feels safe and loved while you’re away! I have weekends off and I am happy to stay as long as they need! On weekdays I can drop by before work, on my lunch break and after work. My normal work schedule is 8:30am-4:30pm with a whole hour for lunch to check in on your furry friends! I am able to go before work, for lunch, and in the evening after work whenever needed! I will care for your pet by ensuring they always have access to water and get fed at the appropriate times. I will make sure the escape artists cannot just get outside and that there is nothing that could be a danger to them out available for them to grab.

“Megan did a wonderful job taking care of my cat Minx and feeding my birds and strays. I will definitely keep her in mind for my next beach vacation. Thank you Megan”
Michael G.
“Michael is an incredibly responsible, mature, personable, and intelligent young man! He also happens to be extremely compassionate toward and genuinely talented at handling dogs. I hired him to walk my Australian shepherd, Macey, and for those that don’t know this breed, they are highly intelligent, energetic, and often very difficult to handle…they think they are in charge! Michael did an exceptional job handling and interacting with Macey. It’s obvious he truly cared about her…he was warm and affectionate, yet firm and in control…she actually showed Michael respect, she loved him and was always excited to see him. Macey was very well behaved with Michael, which is unusual with my dog! I enthusiastically recommend Michael, you will quickly come to see him in this manner!”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Kelly! I trusted her to care for my 16-year-old dachshund while I was away for the weekend, and she went above and beyond in every way. My dog had specific needs due to her age, and Kelly handled everything with such compassion, patience, and professionalism. She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the weekend, which gave me complete peace of mind. My pup looked so content and comfortable in every picture—clearly enjoying her company and care. When I returned, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly well-loved. Kelly has a natural way with animals and treated my senior dog like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

Conner S.
“I went away for a weekend and left my 1 year old husky/aussie mix with Conner. I had never been away from my dog (Nash) this long and was nervous to say the least as I know he can be a handful. Conner could not have done a better job making sure he got tons of exercise and love. She even got him a couple toys while I was gone. Its safe to say Nash really enjoyed his staycation with Conner and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter/Walker.”
Shauna H.
“Shauna is absolutely wonderful with animals. From what I have seen in her interactions with my dogs (both Boxers) she is fun, energetic and excited. She does a great job reading their cues as well as ensuring that they remain safe while also having fun. Her interactions she has with her cats show that she derives a genuine joy from interacting with animals, and always approaches them with kindness, compassion and understanding. Overall, I think Shauna would make a fantastic addition to the Rover team!”
