“Victoria is incredible! This is the second time she has helped us out on short notice. She really cares for our dog and makes sure she gets everything she needs! We would highly recommend her.”
“I'm so glad I found Ariana! I moved for a new job with a demanding, unpredictable schedule, and she’s been an absolute lifesaver. She's kind, attentive and truly cares about my animals' individual needs. She took all my requests seriously and always goes above and beyond with her updates, which gives me real peace of mind while I’m at work. I’ve already referred her to a friend who’s just as happy, and I’m a repeat client myself. I can't recommend her enough!”
“Elizabeth was fantastic with our dogs! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We returned from our trip and found our animals were happy and well cared for. Elizabeth went above and beyond and made sure our dogs had comfort during fireworks which typically cause them to have high anxiety. I’ll definitely book with them again!”
“Allia is fantastic! We worked with her for the first time this weekend because our daughter had a 1st birthday party, and our dog Cooper gets anxious around children he doesn’t know. We asked if she could take him for a long walk or excursion and she provided an excellent experience the whole way through. She was on time, professional, has great energy, and greeted Cooper with a hug 😊 You could from the Rover pictures how happy she made Cooper the whole time they were out together; she treated him like family. She sent pictures throughout her time with him, took great care of him, and had great communication about her arrival time back. We’ve been looking to build a strong list of go-to dog sitters/dog walking partners, and you can bet Allia is on our list! Thanks for everything, Allia, and we (and Cooper 🐾) look forward to working with you again!”
“Amazing sitter! Followed everything for all of my kitties perfectly and kept me up to date with pictures. The kitties seemed to like them as well. Also kept in great communication with any issues or concerns while I was away for holidays. Highly recommend! 😊”
About: Who better than a veterinarian to take care of your best buddies while you're away? I am a new DVM graduate, and am happy to take care of your pets, no matter how old or young, especially those with special needs! I am certified in dog/cat CPR, and am comfortable providing any care needed. *Please note*: My providing pet sitting/dog walking/pet care services does NOT constitute a VCPR, and I cannot provide medical advice unless a VCPR is explicitly established in accordance with NY State Law* I prefer to stay in the client's home especially for dogs as this is generally much more comfortable for the dog to stay in their own environment. For overnight stays, I like to meet the dogs beforehand with owners present. This way they are assured it is okay to have me in their space for staying with them.
About: I love all kinds of pets. You will be confident in knowing when you leave your pet with me. They will be loved and happy. I currently work hybrid during the day with a very flexible schedule.

About: We welcome housebroken dogs of all shapes, sizes, and breeds into our home. Our home is 100% pet friendly. Your housebroken dog will have full access to our home and fenced yard. We have a kennel if your dog prefers to sleep in one, or they are free to sleep anywhere in our home. Your dog will be part of our family! About this sitter: Your pet is most comfortable in their own home. Some pets are anxious and scared when their owners are away. Having me come to your home to care for your pets will allow them the security and comfort of being in their usual surroundings and able to be in their normal routine. During each visit, I will ensure your pet is fed, given time outside (as needed), and given lots of individual attention and play time. Why I love dog sitting I've been an animal lover all my life, and in particular, I have loved dogs since I can remember. My family always had dogs when I was growing up. I've been married for over 30 years and we have had at least one dog in the house at all times, but usually two or three. About my yard We live on 7 acres. There is a doggie door that leads to a fenced-in area. There are also trails through the woods for walks and open areas for play. Additionally, we have a comfortable deck in the fenced area in the event your dog wants to lay outside while at my home. My experience administering medication Yes. I have extensive experience giving dogs tablets and pills, applying various ointments and creams, and administering eye, nose, and ear drops. My husband and I recently retired to Skaneateles, so we are home almost all the time! Your pet(s) will have constant companionship while in our home. Your pet(s) will have full access to our home; however, I have a crate if preferred. Only my husband and I live in our home, so your pet(s) will feel safe and no strangers will be here.
About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds from a very young age. All sizes and breeds of dogs and cats as well as numerous livestock.

I have a very flexible daily work schedule and can easily accommodate your specific needs. I'm happy to take on clients last minute, schedule permitting. I unfortunately do not offer care for pets in my home. I will do drop ins, walks, and in the home over night visitations only
“Sadie is awesome! We had a little kitten who we were nervous to leave, but once we met Sadie we immediately felt comfortable. Sadie was punctual and sent lots of great updates and photos. We hope to book her again in the future and recommend her highly.”
About: I'm the kind of person that would have a hundred dogs to take care of if I could! All of them would be rescues. I would love to help you take care of your animals while you're at work or away. I am a Hands-On, play with the dogs , make sure they get love and affection , walks and proper care. It would be a pure pleasure to be able to help you be confident that your animal is taken care of while you're away at work. I must admit I suffer from a little bit of empty nest syndrome as my youngest child graduated and went off and is now doing her own thing, it makes me purely happy to scratch a dog behind their ears and have them be just delighted.
“Robin was an excellent pet sitter for my two cats. She kept in good communication with me, sent photos of them everyday, and even brought the mail in. I enjoyed meeting Robin before my trip. Her straightforward and confident personality put me at ease. One of my cats can be very shy and it was great to see that she came out for Robin. Thank you!”

Debbie P.
“Do you want someone who will love and treat your pups like their own while you have to be away? Well, if you do, that person is Debbie P. She loves animals and is very conscientious in her care of your four legged family members. It is hard enough leaving your pups, even if it is just for a day or two, and knowing that they will be happy, comfortable and well cared for makes any separation easier.”
Marisa C.
“Marisa has taken care of all my animals (dogs, cats, lizards, frogs) over the past 10 years and always surpasses my expectations. She follows instructions meticulously (which is very necessary for lizards and senior animals) and always takes my dog for extra walks. She is responsible and trustworthy, sometimes staying at my home for days on-end to tend to the animals' needs. She's got a great, warm personality, is very charismatic and it's clear that she cares so much for animals. I can't recommend Marisa highly enough!”
