Dog Walking in Rochester

“Winna is an extremely reliable, responsive and caring daily walker for our lovable but rather stubborn 8 yr old dachshund mix. She feeds her and has patiently coaxed her to longer walks. Huge thanks to Winna for all your efforts!”

“Just moved to the area and I found Matt. Matt is professional, reliable, and responsive. I feel comfortable leaving my dog behind when I’m away. Matt always send updates/photos with each walk.”

“Lavinia was fantastic with Momo. We did an initial meet and greet, and she asked detail oriented questions to get to know Momo and his triggers, which put me at ease because it showed that she understood the fundamentals of canine behavior. She is obviously very experienced, punctual and organized - Which makes it an absolute breeze to work with her. During their walk, she sent me plenty of photos of Momo looking so happy and if she wasn’t moving further away from me, I would want her to be my regular dog walker.”

“Ellen was excellent!! She was so attentive, sent us multiple updates , pictures, and took such good care of our little girl! We will definitely be using her again!”

“Ronnie did a great job walking my Minnie girl for me! I appreciated him coming so last minute- glad to have a good person to help keep Minnie entertained ☺️ thank you!!”

“Maria is amazing. Abby loved her from the first meet and greet. She is promp, semds pictures and communicated well. I feel so much better knowing that Abby has her visit to look forward to when I am at work .”

“Jess is great with our dogs! We have two VERY nervous dogs, that take time to adjust to new people. Jess was willing to come over and meet our dogs multiple times so they were comfortable with her entering our home when we weren't there. She takes great care of them. I feel at ease while at work, knowing she's coming over to love them up and take them for a walk.”

“Perfect! John was so very nice and friendly to both me and Teddy. He knew just how to treat a young dog with very little experience walking along with a strange person and also handle the anxiety Teddy gets when he sees or hears larger animals. Our experience(s) were great and we will book with you again John. Thank You, Donna, Julia, and Teddy”

“Tina was very friendly, right on time for pick up & drop off! She shared all the things he did on the walk! I would definitely request her services again!”

“Crystle has been amazing with dogs! She’s always reliable and on time for walks, and she also has taken great care of our pups while we’ve traveled.”

“Emily is lovely and my Maddie immediately felt comfortable with her. I was able to schedule with her same day which is great. We will definitely be contacting her regularly. ?”

“Caroline was super accommodating with our young puppy's (and our) needs. She was up for us walking along with her, so our puppy could get feel more comfortable around her for the first meeting. Definitely will be requesting Caroline again for help with our puppy!”

“Rebecca took care of my pups as if they were her own. Her reports showed she was really paying attention to them and the pictures showed they were their excited happy little selves- both made me miss them more but also feel less guilty about not being there to walk them myself. I will definitely book with her again.”

“Andrew was on time and totally respectful. He was very calm with our hyper puppy and did a great job of letting the pup come/warm up to him. We had a few requests (sitting at sidewalks and heeling by people) that make walking the pup a little more work. Andrew was more than happy to work with all of our requests. Definitely recommend!”

“I can highly recommend OatlynKiki as a pet caregiver and dog walker. I have a 15 year old Shih Zhu whom OatlynKiki prepared tasty, nutritious meals and walked daily. My dog was safe on his walks(properly harnessed) and treated kindly. I felt that OatlynKiki was extremely responsible and reliable. OatlynKiki has a genuine love of animals, is honest and can be trusted.”

“Barbara has been a blessing to me and my golden retriever. My mom passed away about a month ago and she watched over the dog while I was at work so I was in a situation where if I couldn’t create a life for my dog during the hours I’m away from home I would have to think of giving her up and that would have been devastating. Barbara agreed to come out twice a day to take care of Cassidy and she has been the most dependable, caring, and compassionate person to my beloved dog. She was so patient with Cassidy, she was going through a big adjustment with the loss of my mom. Barbara truly spent a lot of time establishing a bond with her and slowly they have developed a nice routine of playing in the backyard. They relax in the sun, play ball and with all her toys. I am very thankful to Barbara for the dependability, her caring nature and the smile on my dog each day I come home let’s me know I chose the right service and the perfect person to care after my dog. Thank you Barbara!”

About: I've grown up caring for cats, rabbits and dogs! I also have experience raising chicks/chickens, and some experience caring for pigs, horses and goats. I've recently adopted a large senior dog, and have two cats (and a fish) of my own. Housesitting includes plant-care (indoor and out) as needed, trash days and mail/delivery collection. I'm in school, so M/W I'm available before noon or after 4pm. T/Th I'm available before 7am or after 2:30pm. Fridays-Sun I'm usually openly available! My priority while pet sitting is your pets! If they love walks or socializing, I'll be sure they have the best "stay-cation" while your away too! For pets that stay-in (such as cats and rabbits), play and quality time for me is key- keeping them active and distracted while parents are away is so important to me.

“Brett walked our dog twice in one day with very last-minute notice. He sent videos and updates at each visit, which were very sweet! He even noticed that she had chewed something up and cleaned up the mess. He was on time at each walk and gave Remi a nice long walk each time! Definitely planning on hiring him in the future.”

“Kate has been our pet sitter now for about 4 months. My wife and I camp a lot during the summer, and our two dogs are getting older now and can'e keep up like they used to. Kate stays home with our two pups and we are always satisfied with her communication, photo texts, and care for our pets.”

“Olivia took great care of our pup, and was great about keeping us updated! Thank you, Olivia!”
