“Ellen and John were super responsive and gave me updates on my two dogs that they kept for the weekend. They sent photos snd let me know how the dogs were doing. Drop off and pick up was a breeze. Dogs seemed very happy, that made me happy! Thanks Ellen and John!”



“Our dog loved her week with Alara and we would highly recommend her to anyone. She really understands dogs and fenced in yard to let the dogs get their energy out during the day. Will definitely use her again.”


“Holy cow! Thanks Tim and Kathy! They took such great care of our 2 dogs for 2 weeks. So flexible on meet and greet, drop off and pick up times. Our high energy boxer is wore out, super unusual. And our high maintenance older pointer mix is just as peaceful as ever, his respiratory issue was taken care of well and that's a lot to keep up with. I can't say enough how much my wife and I appreciate the care they gave them. The fenced in yard with a good wood pile, walks, and pictures gave us peace of mind the whole time. We will book again with them anytime we need to and they're available.”


“This was the second time Sir Sparklepuff stayed with Kim, and he seems to adore spending time with her. Kim returned him not only happy and well-cared for, it freshly bathed and brushed, too! We will be sure he stays with her again soon.”


“Susan took great care of our little dog! She was very loving and sent pictures regularly. She is also very responsive to texts and calls. I would definitely book her services again.”


“Darlene is an amazing sitter. My dog had a great time with her. He was well taken care of and I received all necessary updates needed. He returned home very happy and content.”


“Great property for dogs and a welcome home. I have a Vizsla, which means he’s full of energy and attention seeking. He had plenty of room to run and was shown the care and love he needed. I will definitely use Dixie again in the future.”


About: I’ve had pets all my life. I’m retired so I have time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’ve worked with deaf dogs and administered meds for both young and older pets. All in all my theory is that pets just make one’s life all the better they are truly gifts to us. I am retired so I have a lot of flexibility to stay with your pet or have your pet with us in our home or walk your dog when needed. I have a fenced yard and two sweet dogs who get the run of the house along with your dog, including the furniture. It’s a happy home here.

“We left Louie, our 10 year old toy poodle, with Pamela and her husband for 3 weeks. Louie needed to receive an assortment of medications throughout the day. Pamela was terrific! She took great care of Louie. She very clearly cares a lot of about pets and showed Louie a lot of love and attention. Her setting is ideal, located in the country surrounded by farmland. She has no pets of her own and only cares for one pet at a time. She sent us a lot of photos, almost every day, and told us how Louie was doing. We would definitely leave Louie with her again.”



“We dropped off our puppy for the first time ever when in Ithaca for my boyfriends Cornell reunion. Frankie was so well taken care of! Aaron and Kaylee were so responsive and sent us photos and updates each day. Frankie was exhausted when we picked him up and I’m sure was sad to leave his new friends behind. If we are ever in the area again, we would love to use them again!”

“I left my anxious 10 year old chihuahua, Jacques, for the first time ever at Hanna’s place for an extended stay. As expected, he was very nervous, but Hanna was very kind and patient with him and he clearly became comfortable with Hanna pretty quickly. Getting daily pictures and updates assured me that I had made the right decision in choosing Hanna to take care of Jacques. She will be the first person I contact when I need a sitter again!”


“Super grateful I found Ray to dog-sit for Maya! I really did feel like she was on doggy-vacation with all the activities they did. My dog is very active so I am really glad to find someone who will keep up with her energy and take her on lots of fun hikes and swims. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”


About: Currently a master student at Cornell with many years of pet caring experience. I can handle different types of pets such as dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, turtles, bunnies, guinea pigs etc. I am an outdoor buddy who loves hiking so walking and playing with dogs is my daily pleasure! I volunteered at a local animal shelter before and adopted my dog from shelter as well. My dog is not with me during school, so I can’t say no to a good companionship! Thanks for your trust. Master student from Cornell who doesn’t have a heavy class work. I prefer to spend my time with animal friends. Limiting the number of dogs I can take care of is also a sign of showing responsibility to them. I offer dog-walking, daycare, boarding services. If you don’t mind, I will send photos/videos while they are staying with me. My community has a large grass area near my place within 1 minutes and it’s a quiet neighborhood. Also a cool trail near my apartment unit. It's the perfect place to host your pets!

“We'll definitely be returning to Destiny for our puppy sitting needs. She was extremely communicative and sent daily updates including numerous pictures, which not only were adorable but also gave us confidence to not worry about our little guy. Our pup was very happy after we picked him up and we didn't notice any kind of regression in puppy behavior (which we were worried about due to his being 7 months old). We highly recommend Destiny. You're fur baby will be in great hands!”


“Andrea took great care of my lil pup on her first overnights without me. She was communicative, has a fenced in yard, a great dog walking neighborhood and I would love to have Rox stay with her for future trips.”


“Raven was great! My pup was well taken care of and got lots of playtime. She sent me updates and cute pictures every day. Bella even got a new sweater on one of their adventures :) Very friendly and professional!”

“I highly recommend Kim Laribee as a dog walker! My three dogs (Standard Poodle, Shepherd mix and little Affenpinscher) absolutely love her!. As a pet owner, I want my dogs to be with someone I can trust and whom my dogs want to be with. Kim fits my criteria to a T. In addition, I know Kim takes very good care of her own personal dogs, and that's a plus for me.”

Maggie L.
“I’m happy to recommend my friend Maggie for pet giver position. She’s amazing with animals and genuinely loves them. Maggie has a dog of her own, Pepsi, whom she has cared for over the past three years. When Maggie first adopted her, Pepsi was shy girl and tend to be nervous around people that she is mot familiar with. But now, thanks to all the love and care Maggie’s given her, Pepsi has turned into the sweetest, most friendly little angel and warms up to strangers quickly. Maggie’s also looked after my dog, Buddy, a few times, and they hit it off immediately. Buddy felt totally comfortable with her when they first meet, even when i am not around. If you’re looking for someone kind, patient, responsible and love animal with all her heart to look after your pet, Maggie’s the one!”
