“Claudia was great! I was very comfortable having her in my home taking care of my fur family. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat, and they all loved her. She was very communicative and send pictures each day which was very much appreciated. I would highly recommend her for house/pet sitting.”
About: I have been around animals all my life. I have always done very well with dogs and have been taking care of my own, my family’s, and my friend’s dogs for as long as I can remember. I can handle all sorts. I am an active individual and do great with dogs that like to play or go for walks. My availability often varies. I work full time 8AM-4PM everyday of the week, but have time in the afternoons to see dogs. I am up through the night and can do appointments in the night as well. My weekends are typically free for appointments. I am a very attentive care giver. I will tend to all of your dog’s needs and pay close attention to their behaviors. I am good at following schedules and instructions. I am great at keeping dogs entertained and helping to get some energy let out. I am active and can take dogs for any length of a walk and play with them for however long is needed. I am able to handle all types of dogs.
About: Tell your dog I said hi!!! I have taken care of pets since I was 10. My family and friends rely on me regularly to keep their homes and animals safe! I am in between jobs right now, so I have all the time to care for your loved ones and can stay at your home during the day if wanted! I unfortunately can't have pets at my apartment but dog sitting is a way to get my pet snuggles in! You'll receive cute pet pictures if you want as well! I would come to your home and meet your pets first and familiarize their routine with you before you leave. Very open with communication for your needs.
“Bobbi was great! Our two dogs were happy at home while we were away, she kept them busy and happy and kept us updated. Will definitely book with Bobbi again!”

About: No dog deserves the kennel! Why settle for the pound when they can spend a night in a home with an owner-on-loan; either in your house on in a house that has raised two other pets from puppyhood to old age? Admittedly, there are stairs and hardwood floors in my house, but I have bought several carpets for my old dog to move around on and can lay them down for your dog’s convenience. We also have a big backyard that your dog will love to run around in (and no predators, unless you count woodchucks and geese) and a long leash that can go all the way to the end of the property line. I love dogs and after a day with me, your furry friend will mistake me for his mother. I’m most busy Wednesdays-Thursdays, so I marked them out on the calendar, but if petsitting is required for several days, that is easy to accommodate! I also don’t mind waking up every few hours to take a dog out—I have not quite reached the age where sleep is important. I won’t allow your dog to roam around outside unleashed (sorry, but I don’t want to lose them!), but when they’re outside, I’ll make sure they have the freedom to run around to their heart’s content. Additionally, I’m willing to walk them in any weather they’ll put up with and even let them sleep on the couch/spare bed, if they’re not too dirty.
About: I've loved and cared for dogs and cats since I was a child. I now work remotely, so I can be quite flexible in terms of care and stays. While I live in Homer, NY, I currently work remotely. My schedule is extremely flexible, even with short notice. And I love pets of all types of sizes. While I do not currently have pets of my own, I lived as both a kid and adult with both dogs and cats. I'll keep them safe and shower them with love!
“First time using Rover, and we found Lauren. Glad we did. We had her come over and meet the dogs. They all approved so we had her come back for a night of 'baby'sitting. Lauren showed up at the exact time discussed, and addressed each dog by name when they greeted her at the door. We hung out for a little bit and could see how comfortable she was with them, and they with her. First time my wife and I were able to leave the house together for more than 4 hours. Thank you, Lauren.”
“Ashley is really great with dogs! She knows how to interact with them and give them lots of love! She kept me updated throughout the whole sitting.”
“Ray did an amazing job with our two very quirky furry family members. She put both of them at ease, and they weren’t at all stressed when we got home. In fact, they miss her now that we’re back!”
About: I have always had dogs and cats in my life and can't imagine life without them! I'm from Massachusetts and back home have 3 dogs and two cats. I'm about to graduate with my doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree, so you can be confident leaving your best friends in my care! I am RECOVER CPR certified for dogs and cats 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.
“Reliable and caring! Teri always provides excellent care for my pets. My dog loves her and she treats him like her own. She’s communicative, and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend!”
“What a great experience hiring Alexis to housesit and take care of my two indoor cats! I was away for a week, and Alexis kept me up-to-date with texts and pictures of my girls. I could see that my kitties were already in love with her! When I returned from my trip, I found my house neat & clean. I will definitely be hiring Alexis again and highly recommend here.”
“Kylie did a great job looking after Zeus . She provided regular updates including pictures which eases any concerns we may have while away from our favorite lab!!”
About: Animal lover of all sorts. A family isn’t complete with a furry little or big four legged best friend. I have grown up all my life around animals dogs especially, now with children of my own I love to share that experience with them. Your dog or cat will be loved and care for just like you would take care of them. My goal is to ease their worry while you are working knowing they are having a great day themselves. Available and flexible times if needed . We run, we play and meet friends (if like to play with others dogs) long walks in the leaves or snow we come over in all weather. Pick me and your dog will sure have a day to remember
“Heather was wonderful with our senior dog, Pippin. Though he doesn't have a complex routine to follow, he's a quirky guy that likes to be VERY close to his person, is forgetful, and sometimes barky due to his age. Heather "got" Pippin right away. We felt she genuinely understood his habits and his singular approach to life. Heather sent just the right amount of updates and photos. Pippin was in good hands with Heather. We are very grateful to her and highly recommend her!”
“August was a wonderful caregiver to our 2 mid-sized labrador mix dogs, one 12yrs, one 6yrs. August slept in our home during our family's wk long vacation. They provided several walks a day, fed, medicated and supported a relaxing, consistent environment for our beloved pups. Our older dog required medical support while in Augusts' care. August maintained conversation, with health updates with our veterinarian and myself which allowed me peace of mind while we were traveling. August was able to set up and manage playdates and excursions with our friends for our 2 pups. August left our home and our pups in perfect shape and I was very grateful for their presence. I highly recommend August and will absolutely use them again.”

“Joey watches my dog very often when I am working overnights and out of town! Louie loves when he comes over and when I say “Joey is watching him”. He is always very tired because they played so hard and always has enough food and water. Definitely recommend joey to watch your pet…treats them like his own!”

“Nikki has taken care of my dogs for a couple years now when we go on vacation.

9. John R.
“I have watched John take care of two family dogs in a loving and responsible way for over seven years, and I think he would be a wonderful dog caregiver. He clearly loves and relates to dogs in a special way. He has experience with all aspects of pet care, including feeding, cleaning, and exercising. He is patient and attentive. He loves to take dogs for walks, and can go either long or short distances. John is very smart, and would quickly pick up any instructions. He is also very clean and careful. I would highly recommend him.”
10. Aaron F.
“Aaron is one of the most kind, gentle souls I’ve ever met. I’ve known him for over 22 years, and I can confidently say there are few in this world I trust more than him. Every animal I’ve ever seen him with, including my own dog, is both safe and loved in his presence. I never let anyone other than my mother watch my dog, but if I needed to, I’d hand her to him without a second thought. He’s trustworthy and dependable in ways most could never achieve. I couldn’t possibly recommend him more to care for anyone’s pets. He is a diamond in the rough, and your pets will always be in great hands.”

John truly truly cares for dogs and there is no one else I would trust my pet with as much as I would with John!”
