About: I'm a dog mom of two. I love dogs and go out of my way to care for them, spoil them, and make them feel loved. I am capable of watching other pets outside of the norm. I have experience with fish, reptiles, guinea pigs, bunnies, etc. Just send me a message and we can discuss! I work full time on a hybrid schedule. When I'm not at work I enjoy spending time with dogs. I have open availability to allow dogs in my home or to drop in to your home. I'm excited to meet some new furry friends! The pet that comes into my home has free rein. I ensure to treat them as my own, giving them snuggles, treats, and daily walks. If you prefer drop ins, I am also available to do so. Just let me know your dogs schedule and what works for you!

About: I am a very reliable, loving and responsible person who you can trust with your four legged family members. Both my dogs are over the rainbow bridge now but we had a long loving journey together. One was a Lab mix and the other was a Husky rhodesian ridgeback mix. I know the importance of mental stimulation, exercise and rewards that all dogs love. I have grown up around a variety of different animals and also like to volunteer with local non-profit animal rescues. I have experience working with dogs who suffer from anxiety, aggression and/or have a lot of energy. My schedule is flexible in both days and time. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Thank you for your time and stopping by to view my profile. -Gillian S I have the availability and flexibility to be with your dog as much as needed. I work from home allowing my schedule to be flexible and your dog to be with a human 24/7 if needed. I would typically take my dogs to run errands and pick up and drop off the kids to school. If your dog likes car rides and you are comfortable with that they are welcome to always tag along. If they do not like car rides they can be crated or left out in the home. I always use leashes for walks as we do not have a fenced in yard. I do have crates if your dog needs that for any time away or feeling comfortable (depending on how you work with your dog).

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 5+ years of experience pet and house sitting for friends and family. I’ve cared for everything from large, energetic dogs to laid back cats. I currently share my home with two pups (a Shepherd/Lab and a Beagle/Husky mix) and four cats, so I’m no stranger to managing different personalities and needs. I'm also comfortable caring for reptiles, rodents, and fish (within reason) I’m a recent college graduate with my own reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. While I do navigate some chronic health issues, I’m committed to providing attentive, compassionate care. I especially enjoy creating DIY toys and enrichment activities to keep pets mentally stimulated and happy while you're away. Whether you're looking for drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care, I’d love to help your pets feel safe, loved, and at ease in their own home! My current schedule is very flexible, as I spend most of my day tending to my health and home. I typically have semi-frequent doctor appointments, but they are planned well in advance, which allows me to coordinate are schedules easily I prefer to care for your fur babies in their own home. I can provide drop-in visits or overnight care. I am a laid-back person and will provide lots of love and attention during visits.

“Marinna is fantastic! Greatly appreciate her time & attention to our pups.”

With experience ranging from young dogs to seniors, I provide a calm, structured environment where your pet can feel safe and at ease. What sets me apart is my exclusive focus on smaller breeds. As the owner of two small dogs myself (a Chihuahua-Terrier mix and a Pomeranian), I understand their specific needs and personalities. Because I do not take larger dogs, you can rest assured that your small pup will be in a setting designed just for them—without the stress of being around bigger pets. My home is ideal for dogs who do well in a quieter setting and enjoy consistent, attentive care.

I work full-time as a remote software engineer, which means I’m home throughout the day and able to provide consistent supervision and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to take regular breaks for walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention—ensuring your small dog is never left alone for long stretches and always feels cared for. Because I’m home-based and live in a quiet, country setting just outside of Ithaca, I can maintain a calm, structured environment that’s perfect for small breeds who thrive with routine and a peaceful atmosphere. I offer exclusive pet sitting services at my home, ensuring a safe and loving environment for your pet. With a large yard and the companionship of my own two playful dogs—a Chihuahua mix and a Pomeranian —your pet will enjoy playtime, walks, and personalized care.

About: I've loved caring for pets for family and friends over the years. Moved away from home so looking to keep that same experience around here. I'm generally off on Sundays and Mondays for work, and live close enough for potty breaks and I make my own schedule if enough notice is given. I have a fenced in yard which has been home to dogs the size of a Great Pyrenees down to a Yorkshire Terrier before. The home is large enough for multiple pets to have their space.

About: Being a dog parent, I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet at home. My goal is to make sure your pets are happy and healthy, even if it means doing a little extra. I am committed to going beyond expectations and making sure your pet is happy while you are away. I am currently a teacher who enjoys customer service. I love doing Rover because I can still do my regular job and end my day by taking care of your pets! I promise you, if I can wrangle 13 year olds into learning I’ll have the patience and compassion to keep your fur baby happy while you are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own. I make sure all routines are kept and will do extra so that they are comfortable while you are away.

“Cate did a great job helping take care of my pup while I was out of town. She was on time for my dogs walks, and I always got pics and a written description of what happened on the walk which was very reassuring. I will definitely continue using Cate for dog walking!”

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.

“Kimberly was very friendly and competent. She and Harley got along great! I'd use her again any day!”

About: I've taken care of dogs of various breeds & sizes . Some breeds include: French bulldog , chihuahua, yorkie, dachshund, toy poodle , & labrador retriever. I have always cared for dogs since childhood. I currently work 3 days out of the work week (available the other 4 days). Hours of availability include some days , evenings, & overnights. I have always had dogs as family pets since I was a small child. I have taken care of dogs as small as chihuahuas, to dogs as big as labrador retrievers.

About: I have been house sitting/pet sitting since I was 14 years old. I am very reliable and have a flexible working schedule aside from Rover. Pet sitting from me will encourage your animals to still feel loved when you can't be there and decrease their loneliness when you are away. I will make sure your animals are in the absolute best care :) I currently work part time and am blessed to make my own schedule. I am available most weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. Saturdays I am unavailable for the entire day but can still check in with your pets in the morning and evening! I also make my schedule for my other job two weeks in advance and can work around your schedule to the best of my ability. I currently have my own dog and two cats and would love your animals (almost) as much as mine. I understand some pets may have special needs and I am willing to offer this as well as understanding some animals need more love than others and that is no problem. I can feed, water, walk, play, administer medication, love on your animals, etc.

About: I’ve pet sat for family members but I’ve also and still currently pet sit for previous teachers. I’ve done an internship at a vet clinic. I completed boces which made me a certified veterinary assistant. I worked at the SPCA while finishing up college. Volunteered at Tanglewood Nature Center. Depending on my work schedule I spend as much time as possible outside of work with your pets. I don’t leave them alone for long at all. I’m easy going, my dog gets crated when I’m not home. I will make sure nothing is sitting out that could potentially harm an animal

About: I have always had dogs in my life and understand the responsibility of taking care of them. I am currently enrolled in a veterinary technology program and have experience with taking care of rescue dogs, having to walk, feed, and play with them three times a day. I have also cared for others pet for weeks to months at a time. I currently have two dogs of my own and understand that it is concerning being away from them at times, and would want the upmost care for them. While you’re away from home, I will be there to make sure that your dogs are well taken care of. I will make sure that your dogs are happy, healthy, and as active as is needed

About: Hello, I’m Abigail. I have had all types of animals my whole life and have had experience working at pet stores and doggie day cares. I strive to keep all animals happy, healthy, and safe at all times! I am home full time, so my schedule is pretty flexible.
