“Pam is very friendly impersonal. I’ve been using her regularly now for many weeks and she always fulfills her commitments and lets me know ahead of time of any changes in her schedule. She also tends to be somewhat flexible and communicates very well.”

About: I’ve had animals of all shapes and sizes for my whole life. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, turtles, birds, rabbits, fish, and more. I currently have 5 cats and 2 dogs of my own and frequently pet sit for family members! I also foster dogs and cats for a local animal rescuer. I am experienced with puppies, seniors, and special needs animals. Two of my own pets require daily medications and I am experienced with oral and subcutaneous meds. I have background in the medical field. I work during the week, but have availability for visits before and after work and in the evenings. I am available anytime on the weekends. I care for your pets as if they are my own. My pets are family to me and I understand the value in having a trustworthy sitter.

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, mostly dogs. I’ve owned my own dogs since I was 12, and I currently own a German shepherd and a Coton De Tulear. I consider myself a true animal enthusiast and I believe that caring for them is more than a chore, but something you need to be passionate about to give them the best care they deserve. I’m returning to college to pursue a career in veterinary medicine and I’d love to not only give your pets the care they deserve, but to add to my experience for the furbabies in the future! Caring for pets in my clients home will all depend on what I have access to. I am more than comfortable with taking dogs outside/on walks, crating them, and feeding/treating them.

About: Dog sitting since 2010, I love dogs and am not put off by size or jumping. After a few quick sniffs we are likely to be good friends. I work but I make sure I leave time between my multiple jobs to check on the dog. I have references if needed. It can be hard to give a key to a stranger and to trust someone in your home. I can grab mail, water plants, ***and care for smaller animals and additional pets that aren't the traditional cat and dog.*** I work part time, so I do not work more than 7 straight hours. My other jobs are often virtual/online or other dogs so it gives me flexibility. I have a cat and can only watch pets at your residence, because I have roommates. I love to snuggle pets (if they feel comfortable with me) and am conscientious in dietary needs and will read whatever instructions and specifics you give. I dont mind giving medicine. I will admit that I can be hard for me to do dinner times if it's on a strict schedule. I can get up as early as needed for breakfast time, but sometimes life gets in the way naturally. I am also a night owl and rely on that to earn extra income, So I do a lot of events. I'm an actor, game designer, as well as an educator and freelance writer. I like to follow instructions whether given in the form of an email or on a piece of paper. Vet numbers and any information that helps me best Make your pet healthy and happy is helpful. A lot of people worry when they give me a packet and I'm an avid reader so don't worry if you have more than three pages. I'm pretty sure the longest one has been five pages for one dog and even that isn't that long. :)

“As usual Dana took excellent care of my dogs while I worked an exceptionally long day. As a single fur mama I am forever grateful for her help!!”

About: I have been around animals my whole life. My range of experience goes from new born puppies and up. I have been dog sitting for my neighbor and some family friends for about 2 years now. I work 2 overnights a week at my job Sunday night and Tuesday night but would still be able to help out at night before going in and in the morning after I get out. I can make any accommodations for any of your animals needs whether that’s needing to only go out on a leash or following specific training plans.

“Erica is great to work with and she was wonderful with our dog. We even changed our timing last minute and she was able to adjust. Definitely recommend!”

Niki D.

“Kimberly was amazing! She sent me so many pictures of Kacie on her walk and gave me great summary’s of their walk! It is always so reassuring when someone is responsive to you and when your dog seems happy and comfortable and Kim did just that for me!”

About: I have experience with dogs for almost 40 years. I also have experience with cats and birds. I have had puppies through their senior years as well as taking some older dogs through the rescue that I work with. I am experienced with giving medication as well as any other needs they may have. I have experience cat sitting for family and they have special diets as well as medicine given twice a day. I am a teacher so will have the summer off to help throughout the day as well as evenings and weekends. I can come to your house, or have them come to mine. My pets, 3 dogs and a bird, are quite literally part of my family. They are allowed everywhere in my home. I treat all animals as though they are one of my own. I have experience with giving medication or special diets as needed. When I have pet sit for other’s I always will do anything requested. I am more than willing to send photos if requested.

About: Safety and well-being are my top priorities. I offer professional dog-sitting services with a focus on positive reinforcement techniques for managing aggression, comprehensive puppy training, and gentle, attentive senior care. I am skilled in reading canine body language and implementing proactive strategies to prevent incidents. Let's discuss how I can provide exceptional care for your unique dog in the Baldwinsville/Liverpool area! Summer Hours: I am a teacher who works summer school from July 7th-August 20th from 8am-12pm (Monday-Thursday's)! I have open availability Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, and Labor Day weekend. The only weekend (s) I am away is 7/18-7/20 AND 8/8-8/10. Typical School Year: I will be able to provide drop ins/walks on weekends during the school, school vacations, and long weekends. If you need a drop in/walk on Friday night please message me! *Since I am an educator- I already have completed extensive background checks!* Drop In's/Walks: I will adhere to their feeding, exercise, potty break, and medication schedules. I ensure they receive the same level of care and attention they are accustomed to. For aggressive dogs, I follow your established protocols for walks and handling. I am extremely careful about securing entry and exit points and will avoid any situations where your dog might encounter triggers, such as other dogs or unfamiliar people, unless specifically instructed and it's part of their management plan. I prioritize solitary walks and maintain a safe distance from others. When caring for puppies in your home, I reinforce your training efforts with positive reinforcement, ensure frequent potty breaks to prevent accidents, and engage them in appropriate play to burn energy. For senior pets in their own home, I ensure their comfort, administer medications as needed, assist with mobility if required, and monitor for any signs of discomfort or changes in health. In all settings, clear and consistent communication with you is key. I want to understand your pet's nuances, triggers, and preferences to provide the safest and most enriching care possible. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your unique pet is in capable and caring hands

“She’s always punctual, got a great attitude, and is so good to all the animals. She’s very easy to work with, I couldn’t ask for somebody better. I definitely recommend her.”

“Very accommodating! It was so nice receiving a picture of Charlie while I was at work. I definitely would recommend Melissa to anyone!”

About: I started longer-term overnight dog sitting about three years ago. I do frequent daytime potty breaks for friends when they are out of town. I have watched cats as well. I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years and I enjoy both cat and dog snuggles. Not currently working much, schedule is flexible which is ideal for your puppies that may need potty breaks while you are at work during the day or away on weekends. Unfortunately, I will only go to the clients home. I will not bring other animals into my house. I do own a cat and this is something my husband and I have agreed on.
