Lessi was fabulous! I was nervous having to leave my 5 month old puppy for a week. Lessi kept her active and engaged. She was attentive with questions and put me at ease. Highly recommend Lessi!!

About: I have always had multiple pets, dogs and cats. I currently have a black lab named bear and a black cat named Rosie. I also have house and babysat for a number of families. I love hanging out with animals and am known to be super attentive and responsible. I work part time in the summer and often either work a morning or night shift, not typically all day and have time to play with your pups! (Or cats) I will be sure to spend ample time with your dogs outside either within a fenced area or on a leash and will make sure your house and pup are left the same way I found them.

Nu was great with my dog. I was away for 10 days and she stayed at my house. My dog was very comfortable with Nu and I could see that she really cared for him through the pictures and videos that were sent. He is a young and high energy dog and Nu gave him plenty of exercise. He also has anxiety and she gave medications as needed. I had a worry free trip knowing that my dog and house were well taken care of.

About: I grew up with intelligent dog breeds. When I was little we had Huskies, and German Shepards. Then In high school I got two Australian Shepards within the span of 2 years, and trained them both. I have since adopted an elderly Australian Shepard, and a Cavapoo so now I have 4 dogs. I am a winter sports fan, and an avid hiker, I love the outdoors, and the cold. I have dog friendly transportation. I live on campus, but I am in faculty apartment on the first floor, so it is dog friendly, has direct outside access for potty breaks, and is separate from students, so no loud noises, and very little foot traffic. I am currently a volunteer and the Potsdam Humane Society, and I am Shelter Learniverse Certified, and Fear Free Pets Certified for training, socializing, and handling reactive and large breeds. I am a full time student at St. Lawrence University. My schedule is typically very consistent, with exceptions around holiday times. I am available from 6am-8pm Friday-Sunday, 6am-12pm and 4pm-8pm Mondays and Wednesdays, and 3pm-8pm Tuesdays and Thursdays. I have grown up handling dogs my entire life, and I currently have 4 dogs back at home. I have been a volunteer at animal shelters for over 6 years. I am no stranger to special needs dogs, elderly dogs, pets with very specific dietary needs, aggressive/highly reactive dogs, large dogs over 100lbs, and high energy breeds. I have owned and cared for dogs with all of these quirks, and they need love and attention too. I make it a priority to monitor energy and stress levels in my own pets, and respond accordingly to make sure that they are always happy and comfortable. I believe schedule is very important with pets and will maintain the level of care for your pets that I do for my own.

Carlene is awesome! She is kind, conscientious, and a great communicator. She sent us photos of our dog each day and she paid close attention to him. We’re so glad we had her as our sitter and will use her again.

I couldn't have been happier with Alycia's pet care. My dogs warmed up to her right away, and she kept me updated via texts and with pictures. She also was available on short notice, which really helped us out! She is a lovely young lady and really has a way with pups!

It didn't seem to phase Caitlin one bit when I had to tweek the amount of time I needed her help at my place. She is very responsive, flexible and it shows how much she loves animals. Her overnight at my place seemed to go without a hitch and I really appreciated all of the photos and texts.

About: I’ve had dogs cats and currently have a bearded dragon, and have had no problems. My sister has used this app for a while and I have helped her. I work Monday to Thursday with weekends off. I will be able to care for the animal at anytime during the weekend or after 4:30 on weekdays. I’ve never had any problems with animals in my house. All of my animals are healthy and I always respect other peoples houses and properties.

Katlynn was so great with our dogs. We added a puppy to our family last minute and she embraced it head on! Our dogs loved her and even watched her leave. I would trust her with my dogs any day of the week! She should be your go-to-gal for this area!

About: From young age I've been responsible for many types of animals. I have experience with dogs and puppies, cats and kittens, cows and calfs, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, iguana, fish, frogs, turtles, salamanders, etc. I currently have one medium dog who lost his litter mate in December 2023. I'm a stay at home dog Mom. We both have lots of energy for walks and hikes. I live on a 1 mile dirt, seasonal, dead end road with lake frontage and massive yard for playing hide and seek in the trees and hunting squirrels. My dog is dog friendly, loves playmates. (No jealousy). In your home care would be provided to your pets as we would discuss with a meet & greet.
