About: I have had pets my whole life. I have had many dogs and some cats as well. I can train puppies, have lots of patience with them, and can love on them all day long. I have 2 dogs. Someone is always home, so pups are never unattended. We have a 11 year old daughter as well who loves animals and loves to help care for them. We have 3 acres of land, and a log home. We have a cable to hook up dogs who like to wander, but can allow dogs to run loose if they are well trained.

“It's hard to put into words how amazing Kathy and Tim are. I think my wife said it best when she said they weren't watching our dog. They were CARING for our dog. Please do yourself a favor and stop scrolling now and book a reservation with this amazing couple. I really do believe this was the whole reason why Rover was created. To be able to leave your loved one in the care of someone who will love them just as much. We were able to enjoy our time away and receive continuous communication about our dogs stay with Kathy and Tim.”


“Pam is wonderful and I could tell our sweet girl loved it at Pam’s place. I’ve already rebooked! So thankful to have found her! She sent me photos and a video to assure me my beagle was doing well! Thank you Pam!”


“i’m pretty sure my dog was upset that i was taking her away from Beth’s retreat when i came to pick her up lol Beth was very thorough during our meet n greet. you could tell that caring for our pup the way we do was super important to her which we loved. she was very communicative and attentive to Cookie’s needs. she sent pictures and video’s throughout. we will definitely be booking with her the next time we’re in need!”


“Abigail was absolutely amazing taking care of my cat. She sent pictures everyday along with updates, and it was clear she showered him with all the attention he wanted! I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker for my cat and I highly recommend her.”


“Lyndsay was incredibly kind and took great care of Mini! She made sure he felt right at home and sent lots of photo updates throughout the day, which really put my mind at ease. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”


“Our Arlo loved spending Christmas with Auntie Amanda and her family! Amanda provided a perfect home away from home experience for our boy. At her house he had other doggy friends to play with, lots of toys, cuddles, and exercise. She even took excellent care of him with his medication and feeding schedule. Thank you so much Amanda!”



“Angi and David were great! Our dog got walks, playtime, and seemed to feel right at home. They kept us updated during our dog’s stay and even sent us pictures. I felt so comfortable and would certainly work with them in the future!”


About: Hello! I recently moved here from Maryland. After losing our pup in 2023, we decided to wait a bit and last year, added two new fur babies to our house. I really missed that energy in the house. I have had pets my entire life & love my fur babies. I have 3 biological children & 3 step and all of them are animal lovers too :) Having just relocated, I have a pretty flexible schedule and am very open to helping with your needs for your fur baby. I do work a full day on Tuesdays and partial day on Wednesday’s. I will be happy to follow your instructions and schedule for your pet in your home or during walks. I am very courteous of others property and would treat your Home and pet as if they were my own, if not better.

“Lauren did a great job caring for my dog Stella! She was able to accommodate a last minute boarding request and sent daily pictures/updates. Stella came home happy and well taken care of.”



“Callie and Chloe stayed with Amanda for 3 nights while we visited the beautiful sights in Watkins Glen. I especially liked that she actually has a connection to a local vet. The pups seemed very happy and well cared for. She is very pleasant and was cooperative with some changing times.”


“Arianna was so amazing watching Granger for me!!! I was visiting the Fingerlakes with some friends and couldn’t bring Granger on a dinner cruise we wanted to do. Arianna was very sweet and wonderful, answering any questions I had over the phone before the trip, being flexible about drop off time when we were running behind, sending pictures of Granger while we were out, and allowing for a late pick up time after our cruise. She was always quick to respond and Granger was well taken care of! Would definitely recommend and will be messaging her again if I’m ever back in the area!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all age and sizes since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to do anything their pet needs while they’re away. In the future I’m looking to take a dog training course and slow transition into that as a full time job. Every morning I wake up and immediately tend to the dogs and let them outside to use the bathroom and play around, then we come Inside to eat breakfast to start the day. We go outside about 3x daily to potty and play. I have a big privacy fenced in yard for play time. I have 4 dogs of my own. However I typically do not let them converse with my boarding dogs unless known that they are friendly.

About: My dogs and I are ready to watch and play with your pets! We love meeting new friends and are more than happy to accommodate you. I'm currently working from home and am generally home all throughout the day to play with and hang out with your pets. If I have an errand to run, I can always let you know ahead of time. We have a fenced in area for the dogs to play and splash if they want! If I do leave the house, I generally crate my dogs and would also crate your pet if you need. If the pet is fine to be out and unsupervised, that is fine too.

About: I have taken care of animals sense l was little l have also taken care of few different type of animals l have done training and work some with seniors. I have plenty of time to play/ walk with the pups I’m always with them l make sure they come first. I’m available pretty much every week and weekends . I have two dogs that are friendly one has more energy and the other one is clam they love playing with other dogs. l don’t have a fenced yard we do plan on putting up one but l make sure they can still go outside and play . I can also put them in the crate if needed as well

About: I’ve been a pet lover ever since I’m a kid. I own 7 cats and they are my whole heart, I truly love them more than anything else. I would love nothing more than to help you and your pet in a time of need ❤️ Currently, I live in my own home with my seven kitties. I typically wake up around 5 am and spend a bit of time with my animals and feed them and clean their boxes and all that other fun stuff! Caring for my pets is my number one priority, they truly do mean the world to me. I strive to create a pet friendly environment where my animals and yours will be happy and comfortable! My seven babies are comfortable with other cats and are for the most part comfortable with dogs. My two cats, Nala and Val, are quite skittish but arrangements can be made so that they aren’t around dogs if need be. I have a spare bedroom that is mostly for the cats with litter boxes and toys set up, but that room can be used for boarding or just to give our animals a bit of time to get used to each other! If you have a dog who likes to run around outside, accommodations can definitely be made for that as well! My yard is not fenced in, but it’s spacious enough that I can run around with your pup! Truly, whatever accommodations you need, I am happy to help.

Star U.
“I boarded my two ESAs with Star when I went on a week long trip. They're very affectionate and are bonded animals so I was hesitant about leaving them. They were able to board in one suite together, a big plus for me in terms of both costs and the pair of them benefiting from each others' company. Star was very attentive to my explanation of their food and routine and even sent a couple photos and a video while they were there to reassure me they were doing well. I would definitely use this service to board my cats again and would recommend to anyone looking for competent and caring supervision for their pets while they're away.”
