“Marti did a great job staying with my girls for a few days! I had lots of updates and pictures and my ladies just loved Marti! Great communication and an excellent experience.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Alyssa. She took excellent care of my dog and home, providing daily updates and photos. My pup seemed so happy and well-cared for when I returned! Very Highly recommend!”
“This is the second time using Rover. I highly recommend it to all fur parents. Miranda was just amazing and my babies were well taken care of. I could relax and enjoy myself without worry.”
“Would absolutely recommend Forest as a sitter! Max was comfortable and happy while we were away. Max even followed him to the door while he was leaving, a little sad to see his new friend go!”
“Maria was great with our two Aussies! She sent updates including photos each day, played fetch with them outside, and left our house immaculate. She even won over our nervous pup. We are also so appreciative to her for allowing us to add an extra night super last-minute without any complaints. I would highly recommend her for overnight stays with your pups! :)”
“We were very happy with Kenzie! She stayed with Ruby, who has separation anxiety, while we attended a wedding. She arrived on time and Ruby really liked her. I appreciated receiving pictures of a happy dog! We're looking forward to using Kenzie's services again.”
“Kendra was awesome! My dog can definitely be high maintenance at times but Kendra took great care of her, kept me updated while I was away, and took my pup on lots of adventures!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog owner with 4+ years of hands-on pet sitting experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve had dogs since I was very young, and I’ve been heavily involved in their daily care, training, and exercise routines. With my current dog, I worked closely with two professional trainers, which gave me a strong understanding of behavior, structure, and positive reinforcement. I also have experience with rescue dogs, including one with a history of abuse, so I’m especially patient and attentive with anxious or sensitive dogs who need a calmer approach. Over the past few years, I’ve provided walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays for family friends and referrals. I’m comfortable with everything from basic routines to more involved care, and I always prioritize making pets feel safe, exercised, and well loved while their owners are away. I’m also happy to follow any training routines or reinforce commands you’re currently working on. I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated so you always have peace of mind. I’m currently working 2 jobs part time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pup! I’m a photographer, so my schedule varies a bit and can be flexible, so reach out and I can very likely work with your needs! I deliver thoughtful, routine-focused care in your home, with close attention to your pet’s needs, behaviors, and comfort. You can expect a clean space, clear communication, and dependable updates.
“We had another great experience with Sarah. She was responsive and took great care of our dog as well as our home. She went above and beyond and we look forward to having her stay again.”
“Timothy was awesome. Covered on short notice for a holiday weekend, let me know what was going on when I asked for updates, and left my place exactly as I found it. 100% would book again.”
About: I’ve had the pleasure of owning many different kinds of dogs and a few cats, and caring for animals has always been something I enjoy. I also work at Pet Supplies Plus, which gives me an opportunity to be around pets and learn more about their needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to older pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. I understand that every animal has their own personality and routine, and I believe in treating every pet with the same love, kindness, and respect I would give my own. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, or simply some extra company while you’re away, I’ll do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I also understand how important it is to follow your instructions and keep you updated while you’re apart. Your pets aren’t just animals—they’re family, and I’ll treat them that way! 🐾❤️ My schedule offers some flexibility throughout the week, and I’m usually available on Thursdays. I typically work Mondays and Saturdays, but I’m available for pet care after my shifts. I’m also available after 7:30 p.m. on evenings when my wife takes over with our daughter. Since my availability can vary depending on my work schedule and family commitments, I communicate with pet parents ahead of time to make sure we find a time that works for everyone. I want to provide dependable, loving care while making sure every pet gets the attention and time they deserve. Safety, trust, and your pet’s comfort are always my priorities. As someone who has owned different kinds of dogs and cats and works at Pet Supplies Plus, I understand how important it is to pay attention to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and routine. When caring for pets in their own homes, I do my best to keep them comfortable by following their usual feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special instructions provided by their owners. I’ll make sure they have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and a safe space to relax. I’m also happy to provide updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. During walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize safe handling, secure leashes, and keeping a close eye on your pet and their surroundings. I’m comfortable caring for animals of different ages and understand that puppies, adult pets, and seniors can all have different needs. I believe trust is earned through patience, responsibility, and good communication. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and respect I give my own, because every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable!
About: 30 year old located in Cheektowaga who has reliable transportation and experience with pet sitting since high school. I’m organized and responsible as I have grown up with dogs ranging in weight/ size my whole life as well as having my own currently. Therefore, I feel confident and comfortable helping you and taking care of your pet whether it be walks or administering medicine as needed! My most recent dog watching includes a house with one small dog that has been reoccurring over the past 3 years, and another house with two dogs (one small, one medium), a cat, and a bird. Both dogs require specific diet instructions. I look forward to chatting with you and the opportunity to make a new fur friend! I do work full time Monday through Friday during the day, but I do not have any children so my nights and weekends are extremely flexible! In my own home I have a completely fenced in yard, but walk my dog almost every day (weather permitting). Daily playtime and snuggles are also part of our routine!
About: I grew up taking full responsibility for my two dogs, handling their daily feeding, walks, playtime, and overall care. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. Friends often trust me to look after their dogs when they need help, and I treat every dog as if it were my own with patience, attention, and lots of care Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m available all day during the week as well as on weekends, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day I care for pets with a calm, attentive, and safety-first approach, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I live close to a park, which allows for regular outdoor walks and exercise. I’m very careful during walks and always stay alert to my surroundings to ensure pets are safe and comfortable at all times

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Williamsville
This was the first time we ever left our pets with someone other than family. Tatyjana treated my pets as if they were family. They snuggled with her and her family, and they looked like they felt at home. They were well cared for and even posed for pictures. Something I can't get them to do. She definitely eased any concerns we may have had. We will have no problems asking her again. Thank You so much.
I’m so glad Kelly was available to dog sit Cloud and Milo again. She is very responsive and gives lots of cute updates. I feel like she took even better care of my dogs than I do which is really saying something. You’d be lucky to have Kelly watch your pets! Thanks Kelly!
Sabrina is awesome! She sent lots of pictures of my Jada and Belle and it was evident from the pictures that the dogs settled in well right away. She sent pictures of them outside, going for walks and cuddling! My dogs can be a handful. One is afraid of the street. Sabrina drove them to a wooded area and walked them daily, even though I said it was not necessary because of this. She gave Jada her twice daily medication and gave both of them lots of cuddles! I was able to relax and enjoy my time away knowing the girls were safe, secure and happy. The house was also left in perfect condition when I came back. Thank you Sabrina!
Forest and I had an initial meet and greet with my two dogs and an overview of my home since he would be taking care of both for over two weeks. His experience and work/life met my needs for the stay. He is very responsive to texts, sent some pics so I could see my dogs that I missed so much on my trip. I had every confidence that the dogs and my house was taken care of and that is a lot, I don't trust many people to take care of my dogs aside from family. I will book him again for future trips.

The average cost of House Sitting in Williamsville is $53 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $67 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Williamsville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Williamsville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Williamsville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
