“Elizabeth was wonderful and took such good care of my fur babies! She gave me peace of mind leaving my geriatric dogs in her amazing care! Thank you for all you did for them.”
“We really like Alicia! Alicia is very responsive and easy to work with. They sent us a report after the visit with a video of our kitties and took care of everything we requested. We’ve already booked Alicia for house sitting next!”
About: I have had pets my whole life. I have had many dogs and some cats as well. I can train puppies, have lots of patience with them, and can love on them all day long. I have 2 dogs. Someone is always home, so pups are never unattended. We have a 11 year old daughter as well who loves animals and loves to help care for them. We have 3 acres of land, and a log home. We have a cable to hook up dogs who like to wander, but can allow dogs to run loose if they are well trained.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of various kinds since I was 10. Friends, family and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets. Currently I work on a 10 month contract. Therefore I have summer off so I have plenty of time to provide pet care to those in need of such services. I am a very trustworthy person who has tremendous respect for other people’s property and belongings. I especially respect pets with their needs and desires.
About: I've been around animals my entire life. I had 2 dogs and a cockatiel growing up that I helped care for. After I became older I have owned dogs, rats, fish, rabbits, chickens and ducks. I also foster small animals for a local rescue and have found fantastic homes for over 50 small animals. I work a few hours a day from home so I have plenty of time to interact and take care of your pets & fur babies. I'm available most days and nights. I am self-employed and work from home so I can take care of your pets needs at any time of the day since my schedule is flexible. I personally have 2 dogs, a rabbit, chickens and ducks at my home so there are plenty of things to help keep your pets occupied and happy. I also foster small animals for a rescue I help out with. My yard is unfenced, but I live on a quiet street and have an open area across from my home to play fetch or throw a frisbee with your dogs and mine. In regards to caring for pets in your own home I follow any directions you give me for food/treat schedules, how often they need to go outside, things your pets can and cannot do, etc.
“Crystle was excellent! So attentive to detail, asked questions as to anything she was unsure about, followed directions, was so wonderful with my dog, respectful of my apartment, extremely communicative with me, met with me and my dog before the booking began, was patient with me when I realized I had possibly accidentally booked for two more visits than needed..she was everything I could have asked for in a drop-in sitter! I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Vicky is very professional and does an outstanding job. She is fine with staying over night to keep "the kids" company. Muffin and Lillie quickly got use to her being there. I felt much better about being away. Thank you Vicky sooooo much.”
“Rachel was professional, kind, and caring to our cat over the course of a week and a half. She skillfully administered his medication on the days he needed it, and went above and beyond to play with him, cuddle with him, snap photos, and get him fed and taken care of, all in a couple of visits each day. She consistently communicated with us, and delivered reports of her time with our cat after each visit. We highly recommend her to any and all pet owners!”
About: I love dogs with my entire being. I've dogsit for a couple of years, but I've had dogs my entire life. I enjoy playing fetch and tug of war with dogs, even if they want to do it for hours at a time. I'm currently unemployed so I have a lot of free time, and taking care of my own dog is just a part of my schedule. Taking care of dogs in their own homes is what I most prefer. Part dogsitting, part housesitting. I take the dog(s) outside, I play fetch and tug, and I choose to sleep on the couch.
“Amena was just lovely and Felix instantly trusted her, even cuddling in her hands which he won't do woth me! I'm so relieved we found you. Amena was also gracious, prompt, and communicative. I'm looking forward to many more of her visits.”

About: I've only looked after our family friend's 2 dogs Skully and Hanna for 2 separate weeks, but it made me want to get a dog myself even more. My first time dog sitting with 2 pups was a success, and it was honestly really fun getting them each a pup cup from Starbucks one of the days, and spoiling them with treats and fruits safe for dogs like blueberries and mangoes. Hanging out with them in general was also a blast. This is something I'm really looking forward to doing in the future. I'm working full time for fairport schools starting this Monday, but should be available in the mornings and after school, which ends at 2:40. I'm also a musician and I have gigs from time to time in Rochester, but it's nothing I can't work my schedule around. The last time I dog sat, the routine went like this: Get up at 7:30 to let the dogs out, then feed them the 1.5 cups each of dog food, let them out to go potty again. Then we would hang out, rest, or start the day until about 2 when we would go on a big walk either throughout the block or to a path on the canal. After that, we would go back again and hang out until about 5:30 when I would let them out, feed them, and let them out again. Then, I would let them out once more for the night before bed. That schedule basically repeated, then I also did some cool extraneous things with them like watching the show about the dog from "Up" on Disney Plus, throwing them sticks and a ball to play fetch with outside, letting them sleep on the beds if the owner says they can, feeding them treats, etc. Also made sure I cleaned up and left the clients home looking exactly how it was when I got there. I like to Febreeze too for some reason to make the house smell good. Looking forward to doing more of this.

Shauna B.
“This was our first experience with having someone (other than us) watch our two pups. We hired Shauna to care for our 8 y/o Lab (who is blind) and our 4 y/o Shepherd for the weekend and our dogs loved her! She was in constant contact with us and sent multiple updates as well as pics of our fur babies, which was very much appreciated! I'm so grateful for the care Shauna provided in my absence - we will definitely be calling her in the future!!!”
