Pet Sitting Onondaga

“Sheena is very reliable and communicative. We were able to enjoy our time away that much more knowing she was taking such good care of our cat”

About: I’ve gotten experience with various animals over the years. I love to support them and help them feel happy and cared for. I’m careful not to teach bad habits. I listen to what they want and need. Tell me what you need and I can fit something in! I am available most of the time in someway - so we can work it out! I use a calm tone where I don’t overexcite the animal and provide good manners reinforcement and also play and engagement. I make sure I am predictable and don’t cause the animal to be uncertain. I follow training and routine that the animal is most used to. I assert my boundaries so the animal knows what to expect from me. I like to give the animal space and respect. I also love to show affection or approval through touch sometimes and especially through positive communication and rewards.

“Britt is extremely patient and gracious. My dog is not the most easygoing and Britt came by twice before I needed her just so that my dog would be comfortable when she came by without me being home. She listened and respected my preferences, and my dog’s preferences. It was really important to me that my dog was familiar and comfortable with Britt, as she isn’t with many people. Britt was absolutely wonderful and I would highly recommend her!”

“Andrea is super friendly and was very kind and gentle with my dogs during the meet and greet. Communication was great before and after her drop in visit and she took really nice pics of all the dogs. I would highly recommend her services!”

About: I have had dogs nearly my entire life and love their individual personalities and quirks. I have experience pilling animals, and can help trim nails/bathe pets as needed. I am available 24/7, 365, as long as I have proper notice. I know emergencies can happen and because I make my own work schedule, I can be available when you need. I have a one bedroom apartment, so would be best suited for cat sitting, small - medium sized dogs that would enjoy a residential neighborhood or small park walks. In your environment, I'm happy to follow any specific rules or needs you may have for home or pet care! There is no request too strange to ensure the safety and comfort for you and your animals!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from small to large breeds! I’m a huge animal lover and understand how important it is to make sure every pup feels safe, loved, and cared for. I also have a two-year-old English Springer Spaniel named Evie, who keeps me on my toes! 🐾💗 My schedule is currently very flexible, and I’m available throughout the day on weekdays and weekends. My availability may change in the future, but I’ll keep my calendar updated to ensure reliable and consistent care for your pups! In my home, dogs are treated like family. I provide a safe, comfortable environment where they can relax and enjoy themselves. Whether it’s lounging on the couch, playing in the fenced in backyard, or going on walks, your dog will have plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I ensure they feel secure and at ease, with lots of belly rubs and playtime. Rest assured, I’ll keep your pup happy, comfortable, and cared for just like my own dog, Evie!

“Madison has been very helpful by accepting last minute bookings to look after my kitties. She's an honest worker; the type you would trust to open or close your store.”

About: My first pet as a kid was a cat my family rescued. When I was in high school I volunteered for 4 years at the Hamilton SPCA doing dog walks . And cats and small animal socializing. Career wise I worked in the child care field for 10+ years in different roles. In 2024 I changed jobs to house cleaning I also adopted a rescue senior cat that I later found out had diabetes in 2023 ❤️‍🩹 *** recent update . Because my landlady is also boarding dogs . And her place is small she asked that I no longer do it . My work schedule is flexible. But right now because I’m new on rover and things are slow I’m working mon - Fri So will be available for weekends . I can accommodate a week long booking I just need some notice to book the days off at work I care about animals like they are my own . And do my best to make sure they feel safe and loved and give them my time and attention , I do treat my experience as life long learning . I have a good friend who had her own private dog sitting business for over 10 years she did many workshops over the years she’s a wealth of knowledge for me . But I’m trying to catch up and learn about dog training and things like dog cpr online. So I can be the best dog and cat sitter for your beloved.

“Riley has been an amazing help with my small families life changes. She's flexible, punctual, and great at assisting using this app for us less tech savvy. Clearly has a big heart for the furry ones. Provides lots of details with pics every visit. I would recommend to anyone!”

About: Since as long as I can remember I have loved all animals. I have owned and grown up with many different animals and dogs all my life. Owned a few different dog breeds from a Jack Russell to a Great Dane. I currently own 2 senior Ridgebacks which are my precious babies. Growing up with dogs all my life has aloud me to gain the experience, patience and confidence to teach basic training commands and read body language fairly well. I also had the privilege of volunteering at a non profit dog rescue program where I was in charge of walking, feeding, providing medication and keeping the area clean. Animals deserve the best love and care♡ I am currently working a morning shift but will be available in the evenings Monday to Friday after 6 PM or weekends any time! 🙂 I can keep your furry pet company, play in the yard, take them for walks or even load them in the car and take them to a trail near by! Even cook a special meal! Anything they are needing to keep our furry friend happy🙂

“This was my first experience using Rover and Danielle made it the best possible ! She is an incredibly sweet and kind animal lover who made sure Emmie & Greycy had lots of attention during her visits. I really loved that she sent me a short message and picture while I was away to let me know everything was ok. She is 100% reliable and dependable. I won't hesitate to ask her to look after my girls again and know that I can go away without stressing about their care.”

“Stacey was great with our very shy young cat and won his trust enough for him to come out of hiding and show his face to get some treats and to play a bit. She kept us updated everyday with pictures which was great! We would definitely have her do drop in visits again with Freddy!🐈”

About: Welcome! We are a young married couple who adores animals. Caring for pets is our cherished side hobby rather than a high-volume business, so we choose to host only one family at a time. This allows us to offer a private and peaceful home sanctuary where we can pour 100% of our attention, warmth, and care into your little one. Our work-from-home schedule means your dog enjoys constant companionship, a gentle and quiet environment, and all the couch cuddles they could ever want. For our walking and house sitting services, we welcome well-mannered dogs of all sizes, ensuring every pup receives a tailored, boutique care experience. We are both small business owners with primarily work-from-home schedules. We have very flexible days and are able to give your pup all of the attention, cuddles, and supervision that it may need. We also love to drive the little one over to local hikes and beaches for safe but exciting afternoon adventures. Our home is peaceful with only two adults living here. We do not have kids or other pets and safety is our first priority. Our home is a stress-free, premium experience, particularly well, suited for smaller pets.

About: Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. Very responsible and pet loving. Perfect opportunity for me spend time taking care your fur babies since I don’t have my own. I would love to play and take care of your pets. Walking whenever needed and lots of cuddles if they allow it. Available all week I have no pets in the home so your pet will be getting all my love and attention. I have a large fenced in backyard and enjoy long walks so outside time will not be missed.
